Night completely fell, and Chang'an City was shrouded in the cold light of the two moons.

No matter how prosperous the place is, there are places where the lights can't shine, such as this slum in Xicheng District.

After Zheng Cunjian got Li Mu's order, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately turned around and went out to do something.

Li Mu is not afraid that he will never return.

He came this time, he didn't plan to be low-key, so there was tonight's matter, the prefect Li Gang would definitely know the news of his coming, what action would this scumbag who had ruled Chang'an Mansion for more than ten years take, Li Mu didn't care very much, it was just a big deal that the soldiers would block the water and cover the earth, so even if Zheng Cunjian returned to the palace at this time to report the information, Li Mu was not worried at all.

Zheng Cunjian's leg injury at this time had basically healed, but there was still a [Life and Death Talisman] spell in his body, and life and death were just between Li Mu's thoughts.

A person like Zheng Cunjian, who cherishes his life, will definitely know what to do.

Li Mu swept through the cold courtyard, the collapsed earthen walls, the thatched houses in the courtyard, a well, and a few old trees, and a very strange feeling in his heart, this coldness, as if he was in the scene in the Earth Lamp Temple.

"Next, I still need to stay in Chang'an City for a few days, go out to find an inn, after all, it is difficult to know the roots, after all, the scumbag prefect has been operating in Chang'an City for many years, and it can be said that it has penetrated into all aspects, I personally don't have to worry, but my mother and Sister Chuncao ...... them."

Li Mu stood in the moonlight, his brain thinking.

Eventually, he made a decision.

"If you don't leave, just stay in this yard. ”

As soon as I thought of this, my mind suddenly became clear.

Staying in this slum, if you want to ensure the safety of Li's mother and the maid, you have to do some more means.

Li Mu's gaze swept around the courtyard, and he gradually had an idea in his heart.

We still have to set up a formation.

He began to set up in the small courtyard.

After the last experience of arranging the [Tiangang Earth Evil Array] in the Taibai County Yazhong, Li Mu's understanding of the formation has become more and more proficient, in such a small courtyard, naturally there is no need to take great pains to arrange such a powerful formation, everything is much simpler, he can do it alone.

About half an hour later, Zheng Cunjian drove a carriage and came back again.

The carriage was loaded with some daily necessities, enough for ten people for five or six days.

"The villain is going through his own channels, so the prefect doesn't know. Zheng Cunjian took the initiative to explain to Li Mu.

He has been calling for wind and rain in Chang'an City for such a long time, and he can be said to be the second prefect of the dark world, so it is not such a shocking thing to have his own secret channel, so he said it naturally to show his loyalty to Li Mu.

Li Mu nodded and led the carriage in.

"This is the information that Childe needs. Zheng Cunjian handed over another envelope.

Li Mu opened it, and on a piece of stationery inside, the whereabouts of Li's mother's three maids, Xia Ju, Qiu Yi and Dong Xue, were recorded in detail.

"Xia Ju, imprisoned in Ningfu ......"

Looking at the handwriting on the letterhead, some information flashed quickly in Li Mu's mind.

In Chang'an City, there may be many people surnamed Ning, but there is only one Ning Mansion, that is, it is located in the middle of Wuwei Street in Dongcheng District, Ning Da General's Mansion, its owner is Wuwei General Ning Rushan, hereditary title, the ancestor is the vanguard officer of Emperor Qin Guangwu's Eastern Expedition, he has made great contributions, and he was seriously injured and retired, and when the capital of the Qin Empire moved back to Qincheng, he did not go with the army, but stayed in Chang'an City.

The descendants of the Ning family, the hereditary title for generations, to the mighty general Ning Rushan of this generation, has not produced too powerful figures, the aura of the ancestors of the past has gradually dispersed, and the Ning family has no longer the prestige of the year, but in Chang'an City, it can be regarded as the number one person.

According to the description of Zheng Cunjian and Li Bing in the information written silently in the small black house of Taibai County, this Ning Rushan has a short temper, a violent personality, a ruthless heart, and will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.

Xia Ju was actually sent to Ning Mansion?

Li Mu was a little surprised.

With the status of Yi Ning Mansion in Chang'an City, why did he come to take away a little maid from Li's mother's side?

Li Mu was puzzled in his heart, and read all the information in the letter in one go.

"Qiu Yi is in the [Heavenly Sword Martial Arts Pavilion], and Dongxue is in the Dafeng Chamber of Commerce, so coincidentally?"

Among the rich second generations who followed Li Xiong to Li Mu's residence to make trouble today, there are the young pavilion of the [Heavenly Sword Martial Arts Pavilion] who advocates blowing snow, and Zhou Yu, the son of the president of the Dafeng Chamber of Commerce.

After reading it, Li Mu thought in his heart and said, "Okay, there is nothing for you here, you go back, if there is something, I will contact you." ”

Zheng Cunjian turned around and left.

Li Mu put away the letterhead and continued to arrange the formation in the courtyard.

......

......

Li Mu...... Li Mu!"

In the carriage, Li Xiong's face was full of hideousness, green tendons protruding, like poisonous snakes winding on his face, and his fists slammed on the carriage, huge anger and humiliation, almost drowning him.

Since he came to Chang'an City, he has been loved by thousands of people, how could he have been so humiliated tonight?

"Li Mu, my mage, I will definitely make your death ugly, as well as that old pig and dog, those maids...... I will make you convict yourself bitterly, and regret sinning against me. ”

Li Xiong breathed heavily.

Li Mu's strong performance tonight made Li Xiong unbearable.

He has always been the most proud son of the prefect, he is also pretentious, and he looks down on the evil seed born to that woman at all, and then Li Mu ran away from home and did not return for eight years, he has gradually forgotten this half-brother, but when Li Mu came back, he was the youngest Wen Jinshi in the empire, the county commander, and there was such a powerful martial arts...... This made the pretentious Li Xiong feel a huge blow all of a sudden.

He found that he was inferior to Li Mu everywhere.

What is this?

It's not as good as an outcast?

The carriage galloped and eventually returned to the Li Mansion.

Sitting in Chang'an City for more than ten years, Li Gang has opened up his own mansion in the city, and he has long lived in the official office.

It's late at night.

Li Gang hasn't slept yet.

He looks like he is in his forties this year, with a slender figure, a white face like jade, a black beard under his chin, extremely upright facial features, and an elegant and handsome atmosphere all over his body against the backdrop of white clothes, an absolute middle-aged handsome guy, when he was young, he must have been the kind of handsome character who fascinated a large number of women.

Under the bright light, Li Gang was discussing something with a few henchmen.

Suddenly, the door of the study was opened directly, and Li Xiong rushed in with a gloomy face: "Father, you must be the master for me......" He broke in.

The meeting was interrupted.

Li Gang's face was calm, not angry and self-assured: "Frizzy, what kind of body is it?" The tone was dissatisfied, but it was not a question, if it was someone else, dare to break into the study like this, I am afraid that it would have been dragged down and beaten violently, a month ago, there was a new concubine, relying on Li Gang's favor, without notification into the study, was angry Li Gang, ordered someone to be killed directly.

"My lord, my subordinates have retired first. ”

"The subordinates retired. ”

Seeing the eldest prince coming in, several masters stood up and said goodbye with great interest.

In the room, Li Gang's father and son were soon left.

"Let you root your mother's anger, why haven't you learned your mother's skills at all, but the bigger you get, the more frizzy you become?" Li Gang looked at Li Xiong's angry expression, and said dissatisfiedly: "What's the matter?" ”

Li Xiong told everything that happened tonight.

At the end, he said: "Father, that evil obstacle not only humiliated me, but also didn't take you seriously at all, leaving his post and coming to Chang'an Mansion without permission is a big crime, and he can't be allowed to return to Taibai County alive, otherwise, the tiger will return to the mountain, and the future will be endless." ”

Li Gang listened patiently, and there was still no change in his demeanor on his face, and said, "I will deal with this matter, and you don't have to mix it anymore." ”

"But my father ......," Li Xiong wanted to say something.

Li Gang waved his hand: "Go find your mother, she has something to look for you, you are eighteen years old this year, and it is time to learn some things, and you can no longer be idle outside with the false name of 'the first son of Chang'an City'." ”

Li Xiong saw that his father's face was serious, and he swallowed what he wanted to say, saluted sullenly, and then turned around and went out of the study.

Li Gang sat on the Taishi's chair and was silent for a long time.

Suddenly, the five fingers of his right hand moved slightly, and a wisp of black thick mist, like a black snake from the ground of the Yellow Spring, crawled out of the tip of his index finger and wrapped around his wrist, swallowing black letters, vividly.

"Go ahead, show me around. ”

He said.

The black snake flicked its bow and disappeared into the study like a ray of light.

......

After Li Xiong got out of the study, he walked through several corridors and several iron gates to the backyard.

The backyard of the Li Mansion is only accessible to a select few.

Few people know what's in the backyard.

Li Xiong drove lightly, came to a steel house, stepped on the steps, a heavy metal door appeared, next to the door there was a platform slightly larger than a palm with a flashing green halo, Li Xiong stretched out his hand and pressed on the green platform.

"The handprint detection passed. ”

A mechanical voice rang out.

The metal door opens.

Behind the door is a passage of metal steps facing underground.

After Li Xiong entered the passage, the metal gate closed instantly.

Towards the sixty steps, it has reached the appearance of three or four meters underground of the Li Mansion, a corridor with glass on the wall appears, and after walking through the corridor, there is a pale silver metal door in front of it, the level of metal forging is far beyond the level of craftsmen in this world, and next to the metals, there is a palm-sized platform, flashing with pale green brilliance.

Li Xiong closed his eyes.

"The iris test passes. ”

The sound of machinery sounded again.

The metal door opens.

The light of the incandescent lamp poured out from behind the door, Li Xiong was not surprised, walked in, shouted loudly, and said, "Mother, I don't care, you have to breathe this for me." ”
