What's the situation?

I stared at the boy for a moment, and at first he was still looking at me without squinting, but soon he lost his eyes and slowly moved his gaze to the side.

"Why did you drive us away?" I asked him in as calm a tone as I could.

Xie Dongyang's response was quicker than expected: "The people of Chang Gung Mountain want to harm you. ”

"Harm us? Tell me, what are they going to do to us? ”

"Then I don't know, anyway, I heard Li Wenqian say that you won't survive tomorrow afternoon."

"Who is Li Wenqian?"

"It's the big guy you threw out yesterday, the tallest big guy."

Oh, he's talking about the guy who tried to beat him to death with a burning stick.

I asked Xie Dongyang: "This Li Wenqian ...... Trouble with you again today? ”

"He went to look for me last night, but he was stupid, I was hiding in the haystack, and he didn't look for me. He said those words when he was in my yard. ”

When the child speaks, his eyes are always looking east and west, and he is not very focused.

I pressed my elbows on the armrests of the chair and supported my cheeks with my arms, pondering Xie Dongyang's words carefully.

It seems that Wang Muzhai is going to poison us?

Not necessarily.

Even if he had such thoughts before, after seeing the sudden change in the sky outside the mountain, this guy should be more or less restrained.

Just imagine, what kind of methods can Wang Muzhai use to deal with us? Either they poisoned us during the feast, or they ambushed the "knife and axe hand" and assassinated us when everyone was drunk and halfway through the banquet.

Considering that Li Wenqian dared to take people's lives in broad daylight, Chang Gung Mountain is very likely to be an extralegal place that is difficult to be constrained by the law, and in such a place, Wang Muzhai may not dare to kill people.

The question is, why did Li Wenqian say that we will not survive tomorrow afternoon?

You must know that Wang Muzhai is planning to hold a banquet tonight, is it possible, he is planning to put some chronic poison in the meal, and the toxicity will attack tomorrow afternoon?

That seems a bit unreasonable.

Xie Dongyang probably saw that I didn't mean to leave Chang Gung Mountain, and said to me almost in a urging tone: "Hurry up and go." ”

I smiled and asked him, "Are there any of your relatives in this mountain gate?" ”

Xie Dongyang thought about it very seriously, and then shook his head.

Why do you have to think about such a question?

I asked him again, "Where is your mother?" ”

Xie Dongyang replied sullenly: "I've never seen her, my dad said that as soon as I spoke out, my mom died." ”

"Is your father Xie Liuxin?"

"He said he was, but I don't think he was."

I couldn't understand this: "Why do you think so?" ”

Xie Dongyang pondered for a while before he spoke: "I just don't think it's like it, anyway, every time I see him, he's quite abnormal." ”

"What's the wrong way?"

"I can't tell."

I stared at Xie Dongyang silently, as if I could see what he was thinking in his heart, but soon I understood that this kid was actually very pure, and whatever he thought in his heart, he said it without hiding it at all.

But one thing is for sure, that is, Xie Liuxin does have something that makes him uncomfortable, and at the same time, he can't see through it.

Now that Xie Liuxin is dead, I don't have much interest in such a dead man, but Xie Dongyang's child is really pitiful, and I should help him if it is reasonable.

I know that there are too many children like him in the world, and I can't help them alone, but my mind is that I can help one by one, so my thrift store regularly provides financial assistance to out-of-school children every year, so I plan to give Xie Dongyang a good place to go.

I asked Xie Dongyang: "Are there any people or things in this place that make you nostalgic?" ”

This time, Xie Dongyang barely hesitated, and shook his head directly.

I beckoned to Zhangdonghai: "Donghai, take him out of the mountain, and let the brother who came with you send him back to Bohai Bay." ”

Zhang Donghai was immediately happy: "What's the matter, are you planning to adopt him?" ”

"I was just thinking that the thrift store was just short of a cleaner."

"Don't make a fuss, don't you know it's illegal to hire child labor?"

"I didn't plan to hire him, after all, I don't pay him. Don't be verbose, be nimble! ”

Zhang Donghai took Xie Dongyang's hand and took him away with a smile, and before going out, Zhang Donghai turned his head and gave me a meaningful smile.

I don't know what that smile meant.

Ever since I met Xie Dongyang, Zhang Donghai seemed to have become chattering, and I wondered if I would like to ask Dr. Li to help him take a look when I return to Bohai Bay.

Xie Dongyang followed Zhang Donghai to the courtyard, but he was still worried about the safety of a few of us, so he asked Zhang Donghai in the courtyard: "Aren't they leaving?" ”

Zhang Donghai smiled and assured him: "You don't have to worry about a few of them, Chang Gung Mountain can't move them." ”

"Are they powerful?"

"Then do you think Wang Muzhai is powerful?"

"Amazing, Wang Muzhai is the most powerful person in the mountain."

"Then it depends on who you compare with, if you don't compare with him, he is a dish, if you can't beat him a hundred."

"Who is it?"

"It's the one who is fierce all day long."

"Oh, he looks pretty good."

Fierce baba? I look fierce, but how do I feel so peaceful?

I find the world full of misconceptions about me.

As the two of them walked farther and farther away, I couldn't hear the conversation behind me.

When I took my mind back, I realized that Lao Zuo was patting me on the shoulder.

I was stunned for a moment: "Something?" ”

Lao Zuo's smile at that time was exactly the same as that of Zhang Donghai, and I felt straight hair in my heart when I saw it.

He said to me with such a smile: "I've been filming you for a long time." What's the matter, do you think that kid is good? ”

I nodded: "This kid has a very pure temperament, and he is really likeable." Okay, let's not talk about him, tomorrow at noon, how are you going to deal with Wang Muzhai's banquet? ”

Lao Zuo's thoughts were pulled to the right track by me: "Although I am not sure what Wang Muzhai wants to do for the time being, I can see that this old boy must be plotting against him." With you, I'm not afraid that he will poison us, I'm afraid that he will neither use poison nor magic, and in the end he will use guns and cannons against us. ”

"You mean, it's possible that Wang Muzhai invited a killer from outside?"

"It's not entirely impossible, although the control of guns in China is very strict, but there is no precedent for foreign lawbreakers to smuggle guns into the country."

Hearing him say this, I instinctively thought of Wu Lin.

Of course, it is impossible for Wang Muzhai to invite Wu Lin to assassinate us, if this is the case, Wu Lin will kill him first. Besides, now I don't know where Wu Lin is, where Wang Muzhai is looking for Wu Lin.

But in addition to Wu Lin, there is also a group of outlaws hidden in the country, black soldiers.

It is almost certain that Practical should also have some involvement with the black soldiers, and if Wang Muzhai is the person under Practical Use, it is not surprising that he can contact the black soldiers. I guess what Lao Zuo is afraid of in his heart is also that group of mercenaries.

In this day and age, there are not many people who know about black soldiers, but as long as you have fought with them, you know how difficult they are.

At this time, Lao Zuo suddenly asked: "How many people did Dong Hai bring this time?" ”

I naturally understood what Lao Zuo meant: "There are not many people, but they are definitely enough." ”

Next, Lao Zuo and I calculated and decided to wait until Zhang Donghai came back, and then go to the banquet, if Zhang Donghai can't come back at noon tomorrow, we will not go out.

Zhang Donghai returned to the mountain gate this time, and he will definitely not come back alone, all the Jingzimai brothers will find a secret way to sneak into the mountain gate, we must first use these people to find out the situation in the mountain, and then decide how to deal with Wang Muzhai.

The reason why the brothers of Jingzimai did not follow us into the mountain was mainly because at first we did not know where the entrance of the mountain gate was, and Zhang Donghai did not know the general situation around the mountain gate.

Fortunately, Zhang Donghai is a very efficient person, and the next morning, he returned to the post house in the dust.

Xie Dongyang has already followed a Jingzimai brother back to Bohai Bay, and we can let go of our hands and feet to deal with Wang Muzhai.

While there was still a little time before noon, I asked Zhang Donghai to quickly scatter the brothers of Jingzimai, and while finding out the specific situation inside and outside the mountain gate, I should pay special attention to whether there are people with guns entering the mountain.

There was still an hour and a half before the noon banquet, and news came from Zhangdonghai, saying that there was no shadow of hot weapons inside and outside the mountain gate, but two jars of corpse powder were found in the largest kitchen of the mountain gate.

The corpse powder mentioned here is the powder made from the skull and sternum of the evil corpse, which is comparable to a poison for cultivators who have not cultivated into the stream, but it does not attack immediately.

At first, people who take the corpse powder will not have any discomfort, but as the toxicity slowly ferments, they will gradually feel that the limbs become sluggish, and when this feeling becomes clear, the toxicity has entered the bones.

However, as long as your mental power can easily suppress the corpse qi, even if it is a corpse poison that enters the bones, it will not be harmful to you at all, because the corpse qi inside is dissolved by the corpse qi before it has time to play a role, and the corpse poison that loses the corpse qi actually has the effect of supplementing calcium.

I guess, in Wang Muzhai's eyes, I am afraid that there is no one in this world who can suppress the corpse qi by means of telekinesis, otherwise he would not use such clumsy means to harm us.

Alas, the frog at the bottom of the well still makes me worry in vain.

In any case, corpse poison has the effect of paralyzing nerves after all, and in order to avoid numbness, when it was close to noon, I specially distributed the anti-poison pill for everyone to take first.

At noon, when the sun was in full bloom, Wang Muzhai took several disciples, including Zhong Youtang, to the outside of the post house and respectfully invited us to attend the luncheon in the Ming Hall.

Mingtang was originally a place to worship ancestors and hold clan meetings, and it was the first time in my life that I had heard of a banquet in such a place.
