Volume 2 Starfall City Chapter 70 Poisoning
In the secret room of the Black Tiger Gang, Li Qingshu forcibly transported his true qi, but he still couldn't suppress the abnormal movement in his body, and suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, but the blood was not bright red, but red and black, and exuded a strong fishy aura.
Since Li Qingshu founded the Black Tiger Gang and sat in the position of the gang leader, he has encountered many assassinations in the face of the design inside and outside the gang, and even almost lost his life a few times, but he still survived.
Because of this, he has developed the habit of being cautious and cautious, but this time, until now, he has not found out how he got into the Tao, let alone what the plan of the poisoner is.
The City Lord's Mansion has repeatedly sent people to talk about the matter of proposing marriage, and he has a posture of not giving up until he reaches his goal, and with the cultivation of the Innate Realm before, the City Lord's Mansion is not easy to press, because if he resists desperately, he can at least get a fish to die.
But now in this situation, after being poisoned, he can't even exert half of his strength, and if the city lord knows about it, it will be a big disadvantage.
Thinking of this, he also guessed whether it was done by someone from the City Lord's Mansion, but he quickly denied it, first, he has always had little contact with the City Lord's Mansion, and almost all the people who came to the door to say that they didn't know martial arts, and they couldn't make him poison silently.
Moreover, the city lord is the city lord after all, in Starfall City, no one is his opponent, and there is no need to use such a subordinate method, and with Yun'er's temperament, if he knows the truth, he will definitely swear to die, and when the time comes, he will not get anything, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Another point is that several forces in the city have maintained a delicate balance for many years, and if the Black Tiger Gang suddenly falls, the balance will inevitably be broken, and this is not what the city lord wants to see.
As for the people of the gang, the two elders have always coveted the position of the gang leader, and they have had a lot of small actions before, but after they broke through the innate nature, they have obviously converged a lot, after all, even if they are in their current state, they can barely do it if they want to destroy them.
But apart from these people, no one has a motive to kill him.
What puzzled Li Qingshu the most was that this kind of poison was really hateful, but it was not fatal, and it was obvious that the person who poisoned him didn't want him to die immediately.
"It is imperative that no one find out that I have been poisoned, and if someone in the dark finds out that it has no effect, it will naturally show his feet. ”
Li Qingshu sighed, and then continued to work.
......
Li Fu once again walked out of the door of the Black Tiger Gang with a wry smile, and without surprise, the proposal was rejected again.
But he was not discouraged, because everything was in his plan.
He walked slowly down the street, and when he passed an alleyway, he suddenly noticed a thin man in front of him blocking his way.
He fixed his eyes, took two steps forward, and then smiled and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Li Protector, I don't know what to do next?"
Li Dagang snorted coldly: "You can't say it, why am I looking for you, why should Manager Li ask knowingly!"
Li Fu smiled knowingly, he had heard that Li Dagang had admired Li Yuner since he was a child, and the rumors were true.
He was not surprised at all by Li Dagang's appearance, and it could even be said that he had been waiting for Li Dagang to find him.
Because Li Dagang is also a key chess piece in his plan, seeing that Yu'er takes the initiative to take the bait, the next step of the plan can be implemented.
So he pretended not to hear the irony in his words: "What does Protector Li mean? ”
"Don't pretend to be garlic, Ming people don't say secret words, who in the entire Black Tiger Gang doesn't know that I like Miss, but the City Lord's Mansion has repeatedly come to the door to say kiss, if Miss is really willing, I will not stop it."
--But now that the young lady is unwilling, and the helper also has the intention of refusing, why do you still have to fight to the death, with the status of the young city lord, why suffer for a weak woman!" Li Dagang interrupted.
Li Fu's eyes rolled, as if he suddenly realized, and smiled: "So that's the case! Since Li Protector said so, hey, there are actually many twists and turns in this matter, and there are some inconveniences here, or let's find a secluded place, and I'll talk to you in detail." ”
Li Dagang was a little puzzled when he heard this, looking at this appearance, is there still a secret in this matter, this is not a bad thing for him.
So the two looked around, and when they saw that no one was paying attention, they turned the corner of the alley and went to a teahouse that was not on the street.
Sitting down in a corner, Li Dagang poured a cup of tea for Li Fu and said: "This is my industry, and Manager Li has something to say, so don't worry about leaking the news." ”
Li Fu looked at the environment in the teahouse, took a sip of tea gently, as if he was savoring it, and said after a long while:
"This matter is not complicated, and there is one thing I think I should let you know, that is, the young city lord does not agree to this family matter. ”
Li Dagang couldn't help but pause when he drank tea, and said in surprise: "There is such a thing! Then why ......?"
"Then why do you keep letting people come to the door to say goodbye?" Li Fu smiled and took the words.
Seeing Li Dagang nodding, Li Fu continued: "Protector Li, don't be impatient! Although the young city lord disagrees, this is what the city lord means.
--As you must know, Li Qingshu has broken through the innate nature, and the purpose of the city lord has always been to truly unify this starfall city.
--If you form an alliance with the Black Tiger Gang and cooperate with each other, it will not be difficult to achieve this goal. ”
Li Dagang nodded thoughtfully: "That's true." But why didn't the young city lord agree?"
Li Fu sighed: "Hey! Why else can it be? Children are long, and heroes are short-lived. The young city lord already had a woman he liked, and now he suddenly asked him to marry someone he had never met, so he was naturally unwilling.
--Moreover...... Moreover, it is rumored that Li Yuner has been frail and sickly since she was a child, and even now she ......"
He saw that Li Dagang's expression was different, so it was not easy to continue.
Of course, Li Dagang knew Li Yuner's situation, and when he heard this, he already believed it in his heart.
Since the young city lord also disagrees, it is very likely that this matter will not be resolved.
He was happy in his heart, but when he thought of Li Yun'er's condition, he felt a little lost.
Li Fu observed his words and looks, knowing that the time was almost up, and said: "Although I am a close confidant of the city lord, I grew up watching the young city lord, and no one can understand the feelings in it, so I naturally hope that he can be happy."
--In addition, the city lord only has a son and a daughter, and the position of the city lord will be passed to him sooner or later, and the young city lord is extraordinary, and it is not impossible to surpass the city lord in the future.
--If Protector Li were in this position, what choice would he make?"
"It's reasonable, of course, it's to choose the young city lord. Li Dagang replied immediately.
"That's right! Although I have repeatedly come to the door to say goodbye, I actually want to make this family business unsuccessful, but I can't do it too deliberately, so it has become the current situation. Li Fu nodded, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.
Li Dagang hurriedly stood up and arched his hand: "I didn't know Steward Li's good intentions before, and I was offended, I hope you will forgive me!"
Li Fu waved his hand again and again: "It's okay, it's okay! Li Protector Don't be too happy, this matter has not yet come to an end."
--The city lord is the city lord after all, how can he stop what he wants to do so easily?
--Now I'm just asking Zai Xia to come and negotiate, but maybe I won't use any other means. ”
Li Dagang's originally calm mood was stirred up again: "How should this be!"
Li Fu's face was embarrassed, and he seemed to stop talking.
"Li is in charge, but please speak up!" Li Dagang said.
Li Fu hesitated for a while, then suddenly gritted his teeth, as if he had made a difficult choice: "I shouldn't have told you, I want to ask a question, I hope Protector Li can answer me truthfully!"
"Excuse me! I will answer truthfully. Li Dagang urged.
"I have heard that Li Protector is infatuated with Li Yun'er, I don't know how infatuated I am, what kind of sacrifice can she make?" Li Fu asked.
"I'm right to Miss...... Even if I die for her, I will not hesitate!" Li Dagang said sincerely.
For some reason, a black face appeared in front of his eyes, the playmate he was a child with, and a big fool later, wasn't that what he did at the beginning?
In order to save Li Yun'er, he gave up his bright future, even at the cost of his own life!
From this point of view, I might as well be a fool!
But so what! Yun'er will be mine sooner or later, and no one can take it away!
Since Protector Li said so, then it will be out of the way, the city lord has actually taken action, but it is not without a solution. Li Fu clapped his hands and said, as if he was moved by Li Dagang's sincerity.
Li Dagang hurriedly asked, "Have you already acted?"
Li Fu nodded and said, "That's true! Although Li Qingshu tried his best to cover it up, he had already discovered the clue just now, and he was poisoned!"
"What?"
Li Dagang bounced up from the bench all of a sudden: "Impossible! I just met the helper today, and there is nothing abnormal, how can he be poisoned? The helper is a master of the innate realm, and ordinary poison has no effect on him." ”
Li Fu looked around and hurriedly pulled him to sit down: "Protector Li, don't worry! The poison in Li Qingshu's house is not fatal, it just makes it impossible for him to fully exert his strength."
--As for the poison, it is a rare thing, it has no effect on ordinary people, and the higher the realm, the more serious it is!"
"What is the purpose of what you are doing this?" Li Dagang heard that it was not fatal, his emotions calmed down a little, and he wondered.
"Li Qingshu is very fond of Li Yun'er, presumably the father and daughter have a deep relationship, so if something happens to Li Qingshu, and my city lord's mansion has an elixir that can cure all poisons, what will I do as a daughter?" Li Fu smiled "hehe".
He continued to add, "If there is another precious pill in the City Lord's Mansion that can cure Li Yun'er's illness, then what will Li Qingshu do?"
Li Dagang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, he thought he was scheming, but compared to these people, it was a small thing.
"The city lord has such a layout, so what else can be done?" Li Dagang asked weakly.
Seeing him like this, Li Fu knew that his plan was already secure, and he was proud, but with a look of embarrassment on his face, he said solemnly:
"Protector Li may not agree with this plan, but he must promise not to reveal it to anyone else, otherwise we will both be worried about our lives!"
