"What do you mean by that?"

As soon as the old man walked to a prince's chair and stopped, he twisted his neck sideways and turned back to ask Mu Yuan.

This is a Taigong chair brought by the shopkeeper before a few people entered the store, trotting to the counter, and there is a coffee table next to it, and there is a cup of tea that has just been brewed on the coffee table.

The shopkeeper was next to him and very politely invited the old man into the seat.

"You may not believe it, but I was born in a humble background, and I have been apprenticed to a teacher from my distant hometown since I was a child. This time, it was the first time to travel down the mountain, and I was homesick but I had no money on my body, and the way home was far away. ”

"Until yesterday, I met that handsome brother Tai who was not very good at the Fu Lai Restaurant, and he not only paid for the meal and wine for me, but also prepaid for me for two days' meals and a room in the restaurant, and he also forced this bag of gold when he said goodbye to me this morning."

When Mu Yuan said this, he untied the small burden from his body and took out a money bag from it.

The old man picked up the water cup, and after hearing Mu Yuan's words behind him, he was about to open the lid of the cup and suddenly stopped, and his two gray-white sword eyebrows also frowned at this time.

"Farewell? So where did he go? ”

"The junior doesn't know very well, but he went south by boat in the morning."

Mu Yuan didn't show too much fluctuation, as if he was talking about an event that often happened in an ordinary day.

His perception was very strong, and he was now sure that the old man sitting on the chair in front of him was indeed a monk with an extremely high cultivation.

In front of the old man, he was just like an ant, and it was impossible for him to escape under the old man's eyelids, otherwise he would still be chattering in this store.

And at this moment, he had already secretly scolded Yan Xiaotian in his heart, saying that before Yan Xiaotian went to ransack the Gu family's mansion, why didn't he find out that the so-called immortal who was talked about by people before Gu Jinxinzu was in Bai'an City.

"And why didn't you Yan Xiaotian buy more than one ferry ticket yesterday, and you should have come to some hard means this morning to forcibly drag me on the boat and go south together, although I was very reluctant at that time, but at least this way, it can also change my current dangerous situation!"

After completely shifting the responsibility on Yan Xiaotian and greeting him countless times, Mu Yuan didn't realize that the biggest culprit this time was actually himself.

Because the old man came for the piece of animal skin he took from the vault in the Gu family's mansion.

That piece of animal skin was so important, it was related to the old man's status in his door, and even to the safety of the old man and his family.

Then again, if Yan Xiaotian heard Mu Yuan's words, he would definitely vomit blood and faint, but Mu Yuan still had a lost conscience, at least he was praying in his heart at the moment that Yan Xiaotian had arrived where he was going.

"In that case, you still can't prove where the gold came from, because your so-called witnesses have already gone away."

The old man said suspiciously, but he didn't see a single missing flaw in Mu Yuan's body.

"But the junior is new to the city, and he is not familiar with the streets and alleys in this Bai'an City, so let's take this time to buy tickets in this store."

"Since I came out of the Fulai Restaurant after lunch, I walked on a busy street, walked all the way, walked five streets, turned eight alleys, and only after six or seven passers-by told each other, I walked a long way to find the location here."

"And the location of the Gu family's mansion is not to mention, not to mention the secret vault you mentioned......"

Seeing that the old man was still suspicious of himself, Mu Yuan hurriedly supplemented it with his so-called "facts" several times.

"But in any case, you now lack proof of your innocence, and where the gold came from."

Seeing that Mu Yuan was more and more agitated as he spoke, the old man actually felt a trace of a familiar shadow on him, but he disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Now, according to the old man's opinion of Mu Yuan, there are two kinds, either this kid has been telling the truth, or he is a young man who is even more hidden than his city.

Of course, the old man thought that he was already a man who had lived for more than a hundred years, and in view of this, he was more inclined to the first possibility, after all, this kid was too young and too young.

It's just that the animal skin is indeed too valuable, and he won't let go of any possibility until he finds the young man Mu Yuan said.

Therefore, he wanted to detain Mu Yuan in a grand manner first, and then make a decision after he went to find Yan Xiaotian and came back.

"However, you don't have any evidence to prove that my gold was stolen from the Gu family's vault, why are you slandering and arresting people in broad daylight? Is there any royal law left? ”

"I'm not convinced! I'm going to ask for an explanation! I want to meet the lord of the city! ”

Mu Yuan, who was dragged out of the door of the store by two big men, shouted loudly while pretending to struggle.

The reason why he said the word "pretend" was because Mu Yuan was secretly glad in his heart, because he successfully eliminated the old man's previous suspicion of him, at least the old man did not search for him.

Otherwise, if he found the storage ring he wore around his neck and was hidden by his clothes because of the long rope, it would be really doomed.

However, how could he not be doomed now!

The two big men who were dragging him in the direction of the Gu family's mansion were not ordinary people. The two of them were also monks, and they were even one level higher than Mu Yuan, both of them were Qi Gathering Monks.

The so-called Qi Gathering Cultivator is a cultivator whose furnace in his body has been condensed into the furnace of the true body, so that he can attract a large amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy into it.

The two big men weren't angry at Mu Yuan's big noise, but the more they listened, the more ridiculous they felt.

A big man finally couldn't help but speak: "Boy, are you telling us about the king's law?" That master will nag you, those royal laws are just a trick played by the nobles of the empire, in order to keep resources flowing to them, so as to balance the common people in those strata. ”

"Once there is a conflict between the nobles and the commoners, whether the commoners are justified or unreasonable, there is no royal law to talk about in front of the nobles, and they will lose power, because the royal law is customized by the imperial nobles themselves."

"In other words, there is no equal strength between the two, there is no royal law to talk about, and there is no fairness in front of the absolutely strong forces, and you don't even understand this, you are still a furnace level minor monk."

"Therefore, Lao Tzu wants to become stronger! Lao Tzu wants to go against the sky! Mu Yuan shouted indignantly.

"You little rabbit cub, and you still call yourself Lao Tzu? Still against the sky? Think about where you are now! Hahaha......"

At this time, a carriage passed by Mu Yuan and a few people at a steady pace, and after leaving the street for a long time, a crisp and pleasant voice was very anxious, and it sounded in the carriage.

"Mother, that person just now is obviously Brother Mu, why don't you let your daughter get out of the car to save him?"

"Silly boy, the uncle who was driving the car outside is not their opponent, how can you and I save him, let's go back to the house and let your uncle go, after all, he is the life-saving benefactor of my mother and daughter."

The carriage went away, and Mu Yuan and his party walked and walked, leaving only him and the two inseparable big men beside him.

At the beginning, under Gu Jinxin's description, the old man got the characteristics of Yan Xiaotian's general appearance, so he left Bai'an City and went straight south.

As for Gu Jinxin and the shopkeeper, they all had their own important matters, and they left halfway.

Night had fallen for a long time, and Mu Yuan was escorted by two big men on a street that was rarely crowded.

Most of the residents on this street are civilians, and at night the doors are closed, and the courtyard occasionally sees children crying, adults shouting, and a few dogs barking.

"I said Xiong San, it's been half a month since we followed Uncle Gu down the mountain, do you think it's better on the mountain or beautiful on the mountain?"

"Uh...... That stopped me. Well, how to say it, I personally think that it is good to have a mountain on the mountain, and it is good to have a mountain under the mountain. ”

"Yes, and then?" Mengsi asked.

"It's gone." Xiong San responded without even thinking about it, and then turned his head to look at Meng Si through Mu Yuan, he asked a little puzzled, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Didn't you say it's good up and down the mountain? So what's so good about it? ”

Seeing that Xiong San didn't seem to understand what he meant, Meng Si couldn't help but raise his voice a little higher.

"That's enough, stop me! You're not finished, there's no one who hasn't spoken along the way, it's crackling, have you ever felt my mood? I'm sandwiched between the two of you! ”

Mu Yuan couldn't bear it anymore, and finally vented his grievances all the way without reservation at this moment.

"Okay, you kid, are you tired of living? Let's see how you clean you up! ”

Just when the two of them wanted to punch and kick Mu Yuan on the spot, a masked man in night clothes appeared on top of a nearby tiled house.

I saw him kick two tiles away one after another, swishing, with a strong wind, and instantly went straight to Xiong Sanmengsi.

Bang!

Bang!

Xiong San and Meng Si fell down in response, and they screamed for a long time before they got up covering the painful place.

"Who's that bastard? Dare to sneak attack my brother and sister in secret! ”

"Yes, what about people? Those who dare to hurt people but dare not show up, sneak around, this is the rat ...... Rats? ”

When Xiong San was about to finish speaking, he suddenly felt someone behind him, and suddenly felt a chill in his spine, and he just wanted to turn around, but suddenly his neck hurt, and his eyes were pitch black, and he fainted......
