Chapter Thirty-Six: The Mysterious Old Man
Everyone who said this was silent, and all of them turned red and lowered their heads.
Mu Qing almost wanted to applaud the old man, these words were really happy.
At this time, Mu Chen looked at the old man and almost cried with excitement, the hand under the small case grabbed Mu Qing's hand and wrote three words in her palm: "My master." ”
Mu Qing suddenly realized, no wonder he looked at the old man so familiar, it turned out to be Mu Chen's master.
The Mu Mansion is very large, and this old man is rarely in the mansion, so he has not seen the original body a few times.
Mu Qing only remembered hearing Mu Chen say that his master's name was Hulu Zhang, his real name was unknown, and he was a weird old man who loved to drink and come and go without a trace.
This person's kung fu is extremely high, and he is also famous in the rivers and lakes, Mu Chen secretly ran out to play and fight with people when he was four years old, and although he was only four years old, he knocked a boy two years older than him to the ground.
This scene happened to be seen by Hulu Zhang, who was passing by, and he admired Mu Chen's ruthlessness.
So he found the Mu family, and Mao recommended himself that Mu Chen was destined for him, and he was born to practice martial arts, and he was willing to accept him as an apprentice.
Mu Lin was worried that Mu Chen was too stubborn and no one would discipline him, so he agreed.
Later, Mu Chen learned that this old man had no money to buy wine to drink, so he accepted Mu Chen as an apprentice, and the Mu family took care of the wine money.
It's just that this old man is a bit mysterious, and even Mu Chen can't see him a few times a month.
Hulu Zhang was not in the house when the Mu family had an accident, so he escaped. It's not right, if he was there, the Mu family might be so miserable.
"Hmph, I'm waiting for heaven to do the right thing, who doesn't know that Mu Lin collaborated with the enemy and treasoned and plotted against him. The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, and those two children are not a good thing, so I am waiting for the heavens. ”
At this time, a man who looked like a gentleman and had an average appearance felt that it was too shameless to be scolded by the old man, and he wanted to find a justifiable excuse for his behavior.
The killing intent in Mu Qing's eyes flashed, if he hadn't been exposed now, he really wanted to kill him on the spot.
Don't worry, in Mu Qing's eyes, he is already a dead man.
"Fuck the bullshit, it's really shameless, look at your appearance Sven, it turns out to be a Sven scum, you go out to inquire, what kind of official Mu Lin is. How many refugees fled into the city in this royal capital, and they haven't eaten the porridge and rice that Lord Mu gave alms? How can an official who is dedicated to serving the people collaborate with the enemy and commit treason? ”
The gourd's beard was shaking, and the table was slamming.
Everyone was silent, and the Sven man couldn't stay any longer, picked up the sword on the table, took out a few knife coins from his arms, threw them on the small case, got up and left.
Mu Qing looked at it and said, "You eat first, don't run around, I'll go to the thatched house." ”
got up and followed.
The man felt that his face was dull, as if everyone else was looking at him, and he was in an irritated mood.
He didn't go far, Mu Qing passed by him and whispered, "If you want to know how to lure Mu Qing out, come with me." ”
The man paused for a moment, looked at Mu Qing's back and thought about it, and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he raised his legs and followed.
Although he loves face very much, he loves money even more, and if he does it secretly, no one will know, and no one will scold him.
Mu Qing led him to a dead end where no one was around, looked up and saw that there was no one, and stopped.
The man looked around and asked, "Who are you?" Do you really know where Mu Qing is? Why tell me? ”
The man was still very vigilant, and his right hand was already holding the hilt of the sword, ready to draw the sword at any time.
Mu Qing turned around slowly and said with a smile: "Because the little monk also wants a bounty, I did see her a few days ago." When I was powerless to lead the people from the government to find her, she had already changed places. Still, I have a way to lure her out. I can't do this alone, I want to find a helper, what do you think of the fifty-fifty split after the matter is completed? ”
Mu Qing wanted to kill him, but after thinking about it, why didn't he use it before killing him? Bring out his last value. Aren't you just short of manpower?
The man asked suspiciously, "Even the government can't find them, how do you know?" ”
Mu Qing sneered in his heart, and he still had a lot of eyes: "You don't have to worry about this, I have my own way, you just have to do what I say, and I promise to give you fifty gold after the matter is completed." Do you say do it or don't you do it? ”
Mu Qing didn't explain much, in the face of suspicious people, the more you explain to him, the more suspicious he becomes. The more mysterious you say, the more he believes.
Of course, this method can only deal with this kind of clever people who are mistaken by cleverness, and people who only recognize profits, and greedy people who are greedy in the face of huge wealth cannot resist the temptation.
The man thought for a moment and said, "I don't believe you. ”
Mu Qing smiled lightly, raised his leg and left: "Believe it or not, if you don't do it, I'll go to find someone else to cooperate." ”
Seeing Mu Qing going farther and farther, the man couldn't help it, how could he miss such a big fortune.
Anyway, this little monk doesn't know kung fu, if she deceives herself, it's not too late to kill him, thinking of this, she hurriedly shouted: "Wait..."
The corners of Mu Qing's mouth rose, Jiang Taigong fished, and the wisher took the bait.
He turned around and said, "You don't believe me, don't do what I say when the time comes, it's not good if my plan is broken, I'll find someone else." ”
Mu Qing said and made a gesture to leave.
This time, the man was really a little anxious, grabbed Mu Qing's arm and said, "It's easy to say, I'll listen to you." ”
In his eyes, the little monk is a dead man regardless of whether he deceives him or not. Deception is death, and if you don't deceive gold, you will also die.
"Really? What do I ask you to do, what do you do? Mu Qing made sure again, this matter could not be missed in the slightest.
The man patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, I am also a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes with a sword, how can I not believe in my words?" ”
Mu Qing was disdainful in his heart, and he returned his mother's "one sword to seal the throat", you are really about to become a "one sword to seal the throat".
Thinking so in his heart, he nodded with satisfaction on his face: "Okay!" Just call me Xuzhu, where do you live? When the time comes, I'll tell you how. ”
A sword sealed his throat and reported the name of an inn, and then Mu Qing appeased him and asked him to wait patiently, and then returned to the restaurant.
"Xiaodong, why did you go to the last thatched house for so long?" Yu Chenglong asked.
"Diarrhea, don't worry about eating."
Where can Yu Chengchan close his mouth, and asked again: "What is diarrhea?" ”
"Poof" Mu Qing squirted out the buns he had just eaten.
Ignoring him anymore, when the food was almost over, I saw the old man playing a pot of wine at the counter and leaving.
Mu Qing gave Mu Chen a look, and Mu Chen covered his stomach and said that he was uncomfortable.
So Mu Qing took Mu Chen back to the inn, and Yu Chenglong went shopping alone.
The two didn't actually go back to the inn, but followed the old man all the way.
The old man walked around as if he were wandering, until he had walked five streets and disappeared into a ruined courtyard.
The two of them were cautious all the way, and saw that no one had entered the courtyard.
