In the evening, the green leaf forest.

The gentle autumn wind carried the general trend to blow off the last touch of blue, and a sleet added another three points of coldness, and the green leaf forest, which was originally full of vitality, has also put away all its vitality and is ready to hibernate.

In the green leaf forest, in the clearing, in front of the stone table, Li Yi sat quietly on the stone bench, looking at the boiling water, and constantly thinking.

Recently, although it is a little dull and not as tiring as some time ago, Li Yi's mental pressure has not decreased in the slightest, he doesn't like this kind of intrigue the most, but in the red dust, there are some things that he can't hide if he wants to.

"Whew!"

With a long sigh of relief, a trace of exhaustion flashed in Li Yi's eyes, and it was fleeting, and he was fiercely pressed to the bottom of his heart.

Slowly picked up the kettle, and then poured it into the teapot that had already placed the tea leaves, and after pouring it full, after pausing for a moment, Li Yi went around the water in the teapot and soaked it again.

"It's a pity, there is no tea pet, and there is a little less fun!"

Li Yi likes to drink tea very much, and his favorite is to make tea.

As the saying goes: three cups of wine in the red dust, a pot of tea for the great cause of a thousand years.

Drinking tea can not only cultivate one's self-cultivation, but also calm one's mind and exercise one's mind.

Although Li Yi is a human being in two lives, it is the first time for him to become famous at a young age, although he has a city government beyond his age, but it is inevitable that he will be impetuous, and tasting tea can help him exercise his mind.

Slowly brewed a pot of tea, picked up a cup and put it to his mouth, and before he could open his mouth, he stopped.

"Has anyone told you that you're annoying?"

Li Yi was a little annoyed, but more helpless and bored.

"What does it have to do with me when people hate me? Why should I care what other people think? ”

A slightly stiff man's voice came from opposite Li Yi, dressed in a loose black robe, with long hair draped casually over his shoulders, and a beautiful face, without the slightest wrinkle, as if the legendary skin was like clotted fat.

"Ho!" Li Yi smiled angrily. "I think the name Aoki has wronged you."

Aoki sat on the stone bench with a blank face, his eyes unwavering.

"How?"

As the saying goes: Floating life is like a dream, and the plants and trees have love. Oriental Aoki represents vitality, vigor and vigor. As for you, cold and ruthless, inhumane, and unspeakable, such a heart is none other than a stone, and it is a smelly and hard stone in a pit! ”

Li Yi sneered and showed no mercy. He didn't have the slightest good impression of himself, a future subordinate, if it weren't for Li Er's face, Li Yi would never pay attention to him.

Li Yi felt that his words had definitely touched the soul of the other party, however, he was wrong.

"Stones? It's okay, if you call it happy, I don't mind! ”

"Poof!"

Li Yi squirted out a sip of tea and sprayed it directly on Aoki's face, there was an accident, but more deliberately, Li Yi admitted that he was angry.

However, what made Li Yi stunned was that Aoki didn't care at all, only to see him raise his hand, wipe his face casually with his sleeve, and from beginning to end, his expression did not change, it was really like a stone.

"Well, you win, you're amazing!"

Li Yi took a deep breath, what could he do when he encountered such a hob meat?

However, his sip of tea was not sprayed in vain, at least it made him see some clues.

Li Yi stared at Aoki for a while, and suddenly sneered: "Tsk, this human skin mask is well made, whose craftsmanship?" Wu Lao? ”

He had long felt that Aoki's face was very strange, too stiff, even if he was born with facial paralysis, it would not be like this.

When Aoki heard this, his expression did not change, but his eyes fluctuated slightly.

"Do you know Elder Wu?"

"Hey! If it weren't for me, would he have survived until now? ”

Aoki was stunned, and then suddenly.

"I remember, back then, the Blue Dragon Gang was single-handedly eradicated by you, and Wu Lao was also the patriarch of the Green Dragon Gang back then."

Li Yi's eyes suddenly turned cold. "You're the leader of the Taishang Pavilion, right?"

"Not bad!"

"As His Majesty's personal guard, I actually let the ghost market exist, and make a Taishang Pavilion, I will be ashamed of you!"

Aoki's eyes finally changed, and even the stiff human skin mask fluctuated slightly. "The situation forced it to be like this."

"Forced by the situation? Behind you is the dignified Tang Empire, what else can make you compromise? ”

"The power of the family is far beyond your imagination!"

"Hmph, a bunch of moths!"

"If you have this mentality, the Ministry of State Security will definitely lose!"

"Oh? Are you challenging me? Dare to bet? ”

The corners of Li Yi's mouth curled, of course he knew the strength of the family, and the reason why he said this was to provoke Aoki, and then force him to make a gambling contract so that he could actively cooperate with him. I have to say that although he is very annoyed with Aoki, Aoki's identity as the leader of the Taishang Pavilion is still very attractive to him.

"Bet on what?"

"It's very simple, with a time limit of three years, within three years, you will fully cooperate with me, if I can eradicate the ghost market, you will lose, from now on, you must unconditionally obey any of my orders. If I can't do that, I'll disband the Ministry of State Security immediately and promise you what I can. ”

Aoki, however, shook his head.

"National events, how can it be child's play? Don't worry, even if there is no gambling contract, I will listen to your orders, as for whether or not you can eradicate the ghost market, it is your business, success is your credit, failure has nothing to do with me. Moreover, even if I agree, you can't meet the conditions I said, this bet is meaningless! ”

"Hmph, you also know that national affairs are not allowed to be played? Do you think what you have done in the past two days is not child's play? Still following my orders? My order is that you ignore the mansion and enter and leave without permission? ”

Li Yi's voice was cold, and he finally understood that it was not possible to be reasonable with people like Aoki, and he could only use the general situation to persecute him.

Sure enough, Aoki seemed to know that he was at a loss, and nodded slightly. Then he said in a flat voice: "It's me who was wrong, I'll change!" ”

"You're apologetic?"

Li Yi was angry, all his kindness was broken in front of Aoki, there was no way, it was too annoying, in the face of such an impersonal stone, ordinary people really couldn't stand it.

Aoki: "And what else do you want?" ”

"There must be three chapters of the law!"

"You say!"

"First, from now on, you must obey my orders unconditionally, and there will be no questioning!"

"As long as it's not too much, it's okay!"

"Second, I won't take care of your business. But what I'm going to do, you can't interfere either! ”

Aoki's status is special, and Li Yi must establish the leading power of the Ministry of State Security.

"Yes!"

"Third!" The corners of Li Yi's mouth smiled slightly. "I want you to unmask your human skin!"

"No way!"

Aoki refused without hesitation.

"Reason."

Li Yi sneered.

Aoki shook his head and said flatly: "You will regret it when you see it!" ”

"Joke, I, Li Yi, have never done anything I regret!"

"Believe me, if you see me for what I really are, you will definitely regret it!"

Aoki's eyes were firm, and there was no joke in his eyes.

Looking at Aoki's eyes, Li Yi suddenly stiffened, and a thought was about to come out in his heart, but it was fleeting, and he couldn't catch it, but when he looked at Aoki's human skin mask again, he suddenly had an ominous feeling, for some reason, he suddenly felt that if he uncovered Aoki's mask, something terrible would likely happen.

Li Yi tugged at the corners of his mouth, feeling a little nonsense, but he didn't want to take risks.

"Forget it, in that case, let you take it for a while!"
