Chapter 223: An Unpleasant Meeting

Li Mu smiled indifferently, sat opposite Shan Tingyan generously, also ordered a pot of tea, poured himself a cup, and gently put the teacup on the table.

"I know that the mountain girl hates the Li family, so I might as well tell you directly, I hate you too, I wonder how I can meet you anywhere, I can't hide!"

This is called borrowing the topic to play, I have never had the opportunity to say cruel words, take this opportunity to say some cruel words, and make my image worse, as for the purpose of doing this, of course, it is to take precautions!

Shan Tingyan was really angry, her pretty face turned red, she got up angrily, and said fiercely: "What are you talking about, you have the courage to say it again!" ”

"Didn't hear clearly? Okay, I'll say it again, I'm so fucking unlucky, how can I always run into you, tsk, you're just ghostly! ”

"The surname Li, there is a kind of duel now, do you dare to fight?"

Li Mu poured another cup of tea, picked up the teacup, looked at the water intently, and said disdainfully: "Don't worry about the duel, it's not a few days before the competition, mountain girl, if you have any grievances, we might as well put it all on that day!" ”

Shan Tingyan sat down again and said coldly: "You are right, there can be a few people watching the private fight, I will kill you at the martial arts competition, I hope you can maintain today's arrogance at that time." ”

"Mountain girl, the purpose of my search for you today is not to quarrel, but to discuss important matters, can the girl listen to my heartfelt words?"

"I don't know who opened his mouth to spew feces, and said that it wasn't a fight!"

"I don't know who is arrogant and unreasonable, and there is no hospitality at all!"

Shan Tingyan was speechless, so she simply picked up the teacup and drank tea, ignoring Li Mu anymore.

Li Mu smiled, and then said with a straight face: "Mountain girl, Li did not come to provoke today, there is indeed something important to discuss, and I forgot that the girl listened to me patiently." ”

Shan Tingyan glanced at him and nodded slowly.

"Mountain girl, what do you think about the martial arts competition between the two families?"

Shan Tingyan was stunned for a moment, a few wisps of confusion flashed in her eyes, and then she lowered her eyelids and looked at the teacup in her hand, but she didn't say a word.

Li Mu waited for a while, and saw that the other party still did not answer, so he had to continue: "The mountain girl doesn't want to say, then I'll say my opinion first." ”

Shan Tingyan was still motionless, still staring at the teacup.

Li Mu sighed secretly, the other party's attitude was as expected.

In fact, he was not optimistic about the outcome of this meeting, but he wanted to gamble on the possibility of the other party's awakening. Now it seems that she may really be an imaginary character, an addicted character who lives forever in her play.

Although the meeting is no longer meaningful, it still needs to be said, and the process that should be completed should be completed.

"I think it's really sad that the competition is meaningless, just because the ancestors have different Taoist thoughts, and so many people from both families are involved in the senseless sacrifice."

Shan Tingyan still did not speak, like a petrified statue.

Li Mu stubbornly continued: "Mountain girl, enough people have died, it's time to end this farce, you and I are the new generation of the two families, and we have the responsibility to correct the extremities and mistakes of our ancestors, we should make changes." ”

Shan Tingyan finally raised her head, looked at Li Mu with interest, and after a while, she suddenly smiled: "Are you begging me for mercy?" ”

"Begging for mercy?"

"Yes, you are not my opponent, I am worried that I will kill you at the scene of the competition, and deliberately said these words with the intention of begging me for mercy."

"I don't know, who wants to beg you for mercy, you are too narcissistic!"

"Am I narcissistic, or are you too naΓ―ve, our two families have a deep blood feud, you should end it, and we will stop the army and make peace? My father, my brother, who can change their deaths, if you can bring them back to life, I can put an end to this grudge. ”

"The reason why I propose to end this grievance is for the sake of those who are alive and for the continuation of the two families, is this also called naivety?"

"You ask your people if you are naΓ―ve, you ask your family if you are naΓ―ve, you ask your dead relatives if you are naΓ―ve, Li Gongzi, you are dreaming here, I don't have the time to pay attention to a fool."

Shan Tingyan got up and was about to leave, but Li Mu stretched out his hand to stop her.

"Slow, Mountain Girl, maybe you think I'm scheming, maybe you think I'm whimsical, in fact, I'm saving your life!"

Shan Tingyan looked at him in surprise, and after a while, she suddenly smiled and said, "Save my life, you mean that I am not your opponent?" ”

Li Mu replied solemnly: "Yes, I want to kill you like a bag, I want to destroy you all over the house without much effort, but I don't want to do this, I am saving you and saving your whole family!" ”

Shan Tingyan looked at him as if she had seen a monster, she really couldn't understand how this little weak chicken, who was not even as good as his eldest brother, had the courage to dare to say such arrogant words in front of her.

She didn't bother to deal with the other party anymore, and said contemptuously: "Since Gongzi Li has such a big certainty, then good, I'm waiting for you to kill me, waiting for you to destroy me, we'll see you in the ring!" ”

After finishing speaking, he ignored the other party, opened the door curtain, and left the room directly.

Li Mu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Stubbornness, arrogance, prejudice, it is really unseemly, under a good skin, it is just a narrow heart." ”

Jing'er pouted on the side and said: "The young master is redundant, you don't have to see her at all, I thought you had something important to do with her, it turned out that you wanted the two families to shake hands and make peace." Young master, I advise you to die this heart as soon as possible, unless one of them dies, otherwise, there is no possibility of peace between the two families! ”

"What do you know, this is called salute before soldiers, say good things first, if the other party doesn't know what to do, then don't blame me for being polite."

"Young Master, are you sure you can beat her?"

"A hundred of her is not my opponent, let alone her, it is not difficult to destroy her mountain family, I really don't want to see dead people anymore, for a bullshit thought, these deaths and injuries are meaningless."

"Young master, it's not me who hit you, although I think what you said is right, but your idea can't be realized, not to mention that the Shan family won't agree, even the Li family won't agree, they will even think that your idea is very rebellious, and you will be labeled as a descendant."

Li Mu sighed, but didn't say anything more.

Early the next morning, the Li family received a war letter, which was written by Shan Tingyan herself, and the challenge object was Li Mu, the girl was obviously angry, and the more she thought about it after she went back, the more depressed she became, so she personally challenged Li Mu.

The Li family was resentful about this, their own child was recovering from a serious illness, and they were trying to be cheeky and beg the Shan family to postpone the date of the competition, but they didn't expect that the other party would take the lead in putting forward a challenge, which was simply a stone.

However, even if the Shan family did too much, the Li family couldn't pick out the other party's rudeness, because they were just fulfilling the twenty-year covenant and did not deliberately provoke the Li family, if they refused to engage in the war, the Li family's reputation would inevitably be ruined.

The Li family was depressed, this war is not, not a war is not, what should I do?

For this reason, the family held an emergency meeting, and the clan elders first scolded the Shan family for being unkind and unjust, and then they all chose to keep silent.

Reason is that reason, things are that thing, some words are not easy to say, people are frank and frank about the war, even if the party is reluctant, what reason is there to refuse?

Seeing a group of men and women, old and young, all with sad faces, Li Mu secretly felt funny, he knew that it was time for him to perform.

Holding on to the handle of the chair, Brother Xiao Li was about to stand up and speak, but the grandmother next to him was quick-eyed, grabbed him, and glared at him fiercely.

"All of you here are your elders, what do you want to do when you stand up as a child, there's no place for you to speak here, get out!" Grandma scolded in a low voice.

An old man chimed in beside him: "The old sister-in-law is right, the elders are talking, how can there be any reason for the juniors to interject, hurry up and get out, don't be an eyesore here, hurry back and rest!" ”

Li Mu was anxious, in order to participate in this clan meeting, he had to work hard to win this opportunity, and he was driven away without saying a word, what if something happened?

"Elders, listen to the kid finish speaking, I am from the Li family, hmm!"

Before he could finish speaking, the grandmother made a lightning move, covered her grandson's mouth, and then gave a look to the old man beside her, and the two of them hugged their heads and legs, and carried him out of the house directly.

Outside the ancestral hall, Li Muniang and her sisters were already anxious, and when they saw their grandmother coming out, they quickly surrounded them.

Grandma handed Li Mu to her daughter-in-law and instructed in a low voice: "Take Brother Mu back to the room, don't let him go out for half a step, a few of you take turns to look at him, do you hear clearly?" ”

"Got it, mother!" Li Muniang took her son, said hello, and several daughters carried her son and ran back.

Grandma shouted from behind: "Big girl, stay and join grandma in the clan meeting!" ”

Everyone stood still, Li Muniang looked at her grandmother, and then at the eldest girl, and tears fell instantly.

"It's okay, mother." The eldest girl comforted, "You take your brother back quickly, and leave the rest to me!" ”

If Li Mu wanted to resist, these women couldn't control him at all, but he couldn't bear to do it, even if these women were illusory characters, they were also his family, and he couldn't do it ruthlessly to his relatives, so he could only be carried away by them helplessly.

When he was able to speak, Brother Xiao Li finally broke out.

"Mother, what are you doing? Why didn't you let me speak, why did you bring me back, did you do this, taking into account my face? ”

Li Muniang was not in a hurry, and asked softly: "Brother Mu, tell my mother, what do you want to say at the clan meeting?" ”

"Of course it's a battle!" Li Mu replied loudly, "I am a descendant of the Li family, and in the face of the challenge of the Shan family, I should stand up bravely, this is my responsibility!" ”

"That's why you won't be allowed to speak." Li Muniang said kindly, "My brother Mu is sick, he just needs to live well in the future, and the grievances between the two families have nothing to do with my son anymore, Amitabha!" ”

Speaking of this, Li Muniang let out a sigh of relief, clasped her hands together, chanted the Buddha repeatedly, and looked at her expression, as if she was very pleased.
