Volume 1 The Family Chapter 82 "The One Who Comes, the Liver"

Mu Jingxi stared at the visitor tightly, his face was incredulous, his lips trembled for a long time, and finally he barely squeezed out two words: "Yes...... You?! ”

They looked at each other for a long time, but neither of them spoke.

"My distinguished guests! I don't think I need to introduce too much, this famous player in the arena, liver! ”

"Hepatic? Hepatic, a very appropriate name. Mu Jingxi reluctantly showed a smile and looked at the double halberd of the person who came.

When the visitor saw this, he also smiled, and there was some bitterness in his smile.

"It's just that I didn't know until today that your code name is Liver, Brother Li."

That's right, it was Li Tao!

Lying around a thousand swords and halberds at night, the morning meal is full of human liver! Li Tao has practiced halberd since he was a child, and he has made a name for himself with a double halberd in the arena.

At this moment, the sound of bells suddenly sounded in the arena, and everyone was a little puzzled.

"Distinguished guests, don't worry, this is just a small pre-tournament event at my estate. I would like to thank you for your long-term patronage, and I would like to give back to you at this moment. ”

As soon as the host's voice fell, attendants sent fruit plates, wine, mooncakes and various gifts.

"Haha, time flies so fast, before you know it, it's already the right time, this is the famous drink of the empire, the drunken immortals, it is a special preparation of my manor, on the occasion of this festival, and the guests are happy. In order to arrive in time, the period fee will go a little tricky, and I hope you will be happy. ”

Hearing this, everyone remembered that when Zhengzi was in power, it was already the next day, that is to say, today, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival! Thinking of this stubble, the audience all looked at the mooncakes, fruit plates, snacks, and wine on the table. Not to mention that these moon cakes and dim sum are all from the famous name of Huacang City, this drunken immortal has a great reputation. This is a famous product of the empire, the osmanthus wine is the best, known as: the smell is pleasant, fragrant ten miles. The product is drunk with immortals, unique and strange. Enjoying the moon and drinking osmanthus has been practiced in ancient times.

"Hahaha, this manor is clever, so let's wait for the wine and watch the event."

"Yes, yes, this drunken immortal is rare, come on, cheers."

"Everyone, please!"

On the occasion of the festival, accompanied by fine wine, the audience was also quite happy for a while and congratulated one after another.

"Fill it up for Lao Tzu!" Zhang Gou rarely saw the drunken immortal, and for a while completely forgot the previous unpleasantness, urging the maid.

The audience was lively, and so was Liu Bindong, and the house was private, and a little laurel had already been served, and the fragrance was overflowing. Raising the wine glass, Liu Bindong smiled: "Everyone has worked the occasion of the moon festival, may we create more brilliance."

Everyone took a cup and drank it all.

But the two on the field were isolated from this joy.

Li Tao's eyes were full of pain, and he said, "Brother Mu, I'm sorry."

......

Early yesterday morning, just when Mu Jingxi was cultivating with peace of mind and preparing for the next event, above the Huacang City Market, Li Tao was purchasing.

Since he and Mu Jingxi uprooted the tooth people of Su Li and other manors in one fell swoop, Steward Qian personally ordered someone to reward Li Tao with 1,000 taels! One thousand taels, Li Tao's ancestors have never seen so much money in their eight lives, and when they are rewarded like this, Li Tao is of course very happy.

Of course, Li Tao is a kind person, and in his opinion, he really has to thank Mu Jingxi for getting such a huge amount of money. Thinking about it carefully, Li Tao felt more and more that he owed Mu Jingxi too much, not to mention that this thousand taels could get him and Li Lan out of the predicament in life, but to say that Tangtai tried his best to treat Li Lan at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and watching Li Lan's condition improve day by day, Li Tao felt that he would not be able to repay the kindness of Mu Jingxi's master and apprentice in his life.

Therefore, when Mu Jingxi proposed to take the brother and sister to leave the place of right and wrong, he didn't hesitate too much. It doesn't matter to him whether he can relieve the backlash of the Lost Life Gathering Yaodan, the important thing is to find a stable place for Li Lan to live, and of course, it can also allow him to follow Mu Jingxi and repay his kindness.

Thinking that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, although he doesn't have many ways to repay Mu Jingxi's master and apprentice, he always has his heart, so Li Tao deliberately bought everywhere, hoping to invite Mu Jingxi's master and apprentice to spend the festival together.

In the market, many people were a little happy when they saw Li Tao's majestic body, carrying a basket around to buy vegetables, and they were all a little happy.

Of course, Li Tao didn't care about this, he had already decided to invest some money. In the past, during the New Year's holidays, Li Tao was willing to buy some eggs, chicken or something to replenish Li Lan's body, but today is different, because Li Tao is rich! How can you be bitter about your sister? How can you slack off your most honored guests?

That's the power of money! It can make Li Tao, who has always been generous to others, but indifferent to himself, start to plan for himself, and he must have something to eat, right?

At this time, Li Tao even had a little bit of expansion, and he walked with the wind, ruthlessly, gritted his teeth, and stomped his feet - he bought the candy man he always wanted to eat when he was a child, but he didn't dare to eat it......

However, although Li Tao is reluctant to spend money on himself, he is not stingy when buying things for Li Lan, Mu Jingxi and others! A set of wide-sleeved tooth white skirts, if you want your sister to be no worse than other girls! A pair of beautiful legs that are famous in Esong County, and make countless men of the Tiansheng Empire drool, Golden Ham, is to let Mu Jingxi's master and apprentice fully experience the food culture of Esong County......

After wandering around for a long time, Li Tao's basket was filled with some high-end ingredients unique to Huacang, but Li Tao was still unsatisfied and picked around.

But what Li Tao didn't know was that he was already being targeted at this time.

"Boss, how can you sell this bastard?" Li Tao asked.

"Two hundred wen a catty, no bargaining." The boss glanced at Li Tao and replied casually. At the same time, the knife is raised, and a soft-shelled turtle is processed and handed over to another guest.

"OMG! Why don't you rob it! "Two hundred texts! That's pretty much the end of playing by yourself!

"Guest, how do you talk about this? I'm a fair price, it's all wild fish, if it weren't for the fish stall next to it, I started a fish farming, and it would be more than this price! The boss replied.

"That's too expensive, isn't it...... It's so small. ”

"Carp eats meat, Wang Ba drinks soup, Yuanyu is a taste, my Yuanyu is a wild Yuanyu caught by a guy, and the essence is not comparable to those who dig a mud pond to feed some rotten cabbage and dead fish!"

The boss seemed to be replying to Li Tao's words, but the movements in his hands did not stop, especially in the last few sentences, the suddenly increased volume was clearly said to the opposite side, so that the boss of the fish stall opposite was weighing soft-shelled turtles to the guests, and his face was as good as pig liver.

"That's not necessarily better than others."

Hearing this, the boss suddenly stopped what he was doing, and his tone was quite serious: "Guest officer, we have to talk about it well." See this sign? Old! Let's open the door to do business, and what we pay attention to is reputation and quality. ”

Then the boss kicked a guy and said, "Tell the guest, what is the purpose of our Ouyang fish stall?"

"Let your peers have no way to live! Let the guests have no choice! ”

Hearing this, the boss kicked again and said with an embarrassed face: "Joke! Hahaha joke! Our Ouyang fish stall has always been humorous! After finishing speaking, the boss glanced at the guy viciously, and the look seemed to say: Say it wrong, believe it or not, Lao Tzu mixed you into the fish and sold it?

The guy was excited and hurriedly said: "Sincere heart, high-quality service, exquisite ingredients, and a happy life!" Let there be no difficult dishes in the world, and let the clumsy woman cook for good rice! ”

Nodding with satisfaction, the boss smiled and said, "Don't say anything else, just say this yuan fish, you look at this skirt, you look at this neck, everywhere is written pure natural!" Look at this claw, look at this fold, where is not excellent? Our Ouyang fish stall has stood here for many years, as a time-honored brand, relying on the quality of exquisite ingredients! Originated from the ninety-eight turns of Huacang City's East Cuihu River Bay, selected among them are the most in the best condition, which guest does not say good? Besides, this kitchen knife comes from ......"

"Alright, alright!" Li Tao interrupted with a wave of his hand, and he would believe it if he continued to say it.

"Well, which one do you want?"

"This one."

"If you don't have a vision, this is the oldest turtle here, tsk...... A pot of freshness. ”

"Don't slaughter! I'm going to stay until the evening. ”

"Okay."

After paying the money, Li Tao just wanted to leave, but was stopped by the boss, and the boss looked obscene: "Guest officer, do you want to be a member?" With card points, buy a stamp at a time, accumulate ten stamps, you can exchange for a 10% discount once? ”

"No, no, no......"

"Nacheng, I'll talk about it next time, but I'll give you a piece of advice."

"What?"

"Don't go to the other door to buy it, you don't know, they mixed it with fish last time......"

Before the boss finished speaking, a kitchen knife suddenly flew in with a clatter, slashing at the pillar of Ouyang Yu's stall, startling Li Tao and the others. When I looked closely, it turned out to be Nangong Ji on the opposite side.

"Damn, I've put up with you all morning!" Nangong Ji's boss was furious, how many customers had he lost this morning?

"Hey! Grandpa said something that was not true! Stepping on your tail? Looking at the menacing appearance of Nangong Ji's seven or eight fishmongers, the boss of Ouyang Fish's stall was not false at all, and the two groups of people confronted each other for a while.

"Whew! You Ouyang Yustall also have the face to say others? Using grass carp to make fish balls is also said to be carp, don't you want to make a face? ”

"You—how can you...... Falsely accusing people of innocence out of thin air? Boss Ouyang was a little flustered.

"Whew! I saw it with my own eyes, you let the old man of the Qin family see through it and hang it with a rope to beat it! ”

"Doping! That's doping! Can a fish seller be called a fraud? Besides, it's better than your silver carp pretending to be a river fish! Let the guests see the sheep dung that feeds you! ”

"You...... Don't hit people in the face, don't scold people ......"

"I'll expose you short, what's the matter! I don't know who ate on the street last month. ”

"Your grandma's legs! Your female relatives are all peaches sellers! Brothers, give it to me! ”

"Afraid of you?"

......

Kitchen knife! Fish darts! Weigh it! Iron Hook! Chopping block! Salted fish! Everything is a weapon! Everything is flying! A war has begun!

In the melee, Li Tao didn't know how many carps he had received, and he didn't know how many crabs he had received, and at that moment a melody sounded in his heart: the cold ice fish slapped randomly on his face!

Warm tears mixed with the eel,

The colors in front of you,

Suddenly covered up,

The shadow of the fish lingers mercilessly around you......

Fleeing from the battlefield in embarrassment, Li Tao hurriedly counted it, fortunately, there were a lot of things.

"Smack!"

A hand slapped on Li Tao's shoulder, and Li Tao was so scared that his backhand was a punch!

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Li Tao apologized again and again, and the person who was beaten was also a racer in the arena.

"You kid, you don't see clearly." The visitor covered his nose and said.

"My fault, my fault, what's the matter?"

"Someone wants to see you." The visitor pointed to the corner, where a deacon of the manor was covering his nose and looking around with disgust.

Li Tao didn't know what to do, but he still walked over. The deacon covered his nose and handed Li Tao a handkerchief, reluctant to speak, obviously the smell was unbearable for him.

Li Tao looked at it, and there were some small words written on it: If you want your sister to live, come with me.

Li Tao's face was solemn, looking at this handkerchief, the material is extremely high-end, this ...... Isn't it okay to receive such a heavy gift? Besides, a big man gave himself a handkerchief, could it be......

Li Tao was disgusted for a while, and hurriedly handed it back: "This, I'...... How can I receive your gift...... Besides, I'm not good at it. ”

"Damn! Forgot, Deacon Lu, he is illiterate. ”

Hearing this, Deacon Lu said reluctantly: "There is a game tonight, you have to take it."

Hearing this, Li Tao was a little reluctant and said, "I'm sorry, I have something to do in the past two days."

"Humph! That Pinghu horse, you're quite familiar, right? ”

"What do you mean?" Li Tao was a little wary.

"Don't think that the manor doesn't know, the relationship between you and that kid, let's put it bluntly, the big shopkeeper has an order to ask you to play tonight and do him."

"The big treasurer? ...... I'm not going! I'm still in business! Li Tao immediately refused and prepared to leave, since it was ordered by the big shopkeeper, it means that Mu Jingxi is in danger! He's going to report it quickly.

"If you don't want to go, today next year will be your sister's death day." Deacon Lu said coldly.

Hearing this, Li Tao suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes showed murderous intent: "What happened to you?"

"No, she's staying at home now. But...... If you don't come with me now, someone will naturally do her! As soon as Deacon Lu's words fell, four guards suddenly walked out of the alley, looking at their breath, they were all in the Jiuyao Realm.

"You!"

"Humph! Be smart, listen to me, the manor has a lot of rewards, otherwise, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, the manor has a way...... Kill your brother and sister! Deacon Lu said.

"You! You are so despicable! ”

"It's your fault that you're with the wrong person. You understand, this time the big shopkeeper personally ordered to be a Pinghu horse, don't think we don't know, there is a master next to that kid, but ...... Use your own brain to think about it, the person who the big shopkeeper of the manor wants to get still has his life? You think they saved you. ”

Hearing this, Li Tao suddenly changed from anger to fear, yes, the meaning of the big shopkeeper, isn't it the meaning of Yi Mulan Xiangyuan? It is just a matter of one sentence for such a big man to deal with himself and Li Lan.

"Poof!"

Li Tao knelt on the ground and hurriedly said, "I beg you not to hurt my sister, and besides, that Pinghu horse is a good person, please ...... deacon."

"Do you think it will be useful to ask me? It's better for you to choose, either save your sister or ...... You can also not go, anyway, the manor will send someone else to do him. ”

Hearing this, Li Tao's lips trembled, tears rolled in his eyes, and he wanted to deal with his benefactor by himself? It was worse than killing him. Perhaps, he can desperately escape from the encirclement, go to report to Mu Jingxi's master and apprentice, and leave with Li Lan. However, what kind of power is the Yi Mulan Fragrance Garden, even if everyone escapes, will the manor stop there? In Li Tao's opinion, even the City Lord Siming Mansion is definitely not the opponent of Yi Mulan Xiangyuan.

Yes, he grew up in Huacang City, and his heart has already been completely subdued by the obscenity of the manor, how can he get rid of the invincible cognition of Yi Mulan Xiangyuan in his heart?

If it was just himself, even if he died, he would have to report the news, and if the manor wanted to hunt down and kill, he would also be willing to live and die with Mu Jingxi's master and apprentice, but after all, he still had a sister......

After struggling for a long time, Li Tao had to nod.

......

"Needless to say. I understand. Mu Jingxi interrupted Li Tao and said lightly. He naturally believed in Li Tao, Li Tao was not ungrateful, and the reason why Li Tao appeared here must be that Li Lan was threatened.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Li Tao couldn't help but say.

"You are here, it just means that I am not wrong about you."

Mu Jingxi's words shocked Li Tao, and watching the young man in front of him take off his mask, that warm smile made Li Tao even more guilty.

"Oh my God! This...... This kid is so young? ”

Mu Jingxi took off his mask, which surprised the audience, but they didn't expect Pinghu Ma to be just a teenager.

Of course, if they learned Mu Jingxi's age, they would be even more surprised.

"This man is so young?" Liu Bindong was also a little stunned, it seems that Mu Jingxi is by no means a young master of a big force, otherwise how could he be among Jiuyao at such an age?

However, because Mu Jingxi was a little taller than his peers, Liu Bindong thought that his age was around sixteen or seventeen, and if he knew Mu Jingxi's real age, he was afraid that he would be even more shocked.

Mu Jingxi looked at Chang Zhou with cold eyes, and he didn't expect that he still missed a step, and he kept ignoring Li Tao. I was so close to him, maybe it hurt him. I knew that Mu Jingxi should be more careful in the arena.

"Do you like it?" Looking at Mu Jingxi's appearance, Liu Bindong smiled.

"Don't mind, I understand." Mu Jingxi said. Yes, for Mu Jingxi, the manor is no big deal, but in Li Tao's eyes, it is an invincible existence, how can he not be afraid of being coerced by the manor? Besides, if you still use Li Lan as a threat, in exchange for yourself, you will be like this.

"Brother Li, don't think about him tonight, you and I have known each other for a long time, and we haven't separated our responsibilities yet, today, it should be your test of my training."

"Thank you...... Okay, you and I will have a good time today! Li Tao nodded.

Immediately, the two looked at each other and smiled.
