Chapter 117: Branches
Away from Anhou Mansion.
Li Wuji stood in a pavilion in the middle courtyard, looking at the mansion that had gradually regained its vitality after a period of renovation, with a satisfied smile on his face.
Originally, he thought about saying nowhere when he gave it to him, but now it seems that he is beginning to like this place a little, and most importantly, Xiaoxiao likes it.
"Brother, are we really going to live here in the future?"
Pang Xiaoxiao on the side looked at the rockery pavilions around him with novelty in his eyes, and asked with some joy.
"That's right, after the renovation is completed, you can move here with me, such a big mansion, I live alone and it is deserted."
Li Wuji nodded with a smile and said slowly.
"Great!"
Hearing Li Wuji's answer, the smile on Pang Xiaoxiao's face was even worse, and his face was full of anticipation.
Although she is now the shopkeeper on the first floor of the world, and Cao Zi'an has begun to slowly start to hand over other shops to her one after another, it has long been different.
But in front of Li Wuji, she still behaved like a child who didn't grow up more often, and naturally lost the momentum of being alone.
Perhaps in her heart, she has long regarded Li Wuji as her relatives, and in front of her relatives, she is willing to remove all her disguises.
"If you like it, go around, but I'm afraid it will take some time to pick a room, after all, it hasn't been completely renovated yet."
Li Wuji glanced at Pang Xiaoxiao, who was full of curiosity about everything here, and said with a smile.
"Okay."
Pang Xiaoxiao agreed, walked out of the pavilion with two maids, and began to tour around the mansion.
After being imprisoned in the Night Feather Palace for many years, she never imagined that she could have the life she has now.
Looking at the back of the little junior sister gradually moving away, Li Wuji let out a long sigh, turned around and sat on the stone bench, and a trace of apology flashed between his eyebrows.
"Miss can live so carefree now, all because of the son, if the lord knows under the spring, he can also look away."
"This place has been repaired for half a month, and it is basically coming to an end, and it will be all repaired before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and then the son and the young lady will be able to move in."
"You can see that she really likes it here."
Cao Zi'an on the side seemed to see something, hesitated for a moment, and comforted softly.
"Even so, I owe her so much."
Li Wuji shook his head and said meaningfully.
"The past is over, and Childe doesn't have to mind, maybe everything is providential."
Cao Zi settled down for a moment and said seriously.
Li Wuji nodded, didn't say anything more, turned around to drink tea, and found that the teacup was empty.
Seeing this, Cao Zi'an hurriedly stepped forward to add another cup to Li Wuji.
"How's it going?"
After pondering for a long time, Li Wuji slowly asked again.
"Hui Gongzi, I have almost prepared, the candidate for the mission has been selected, far away from the capital, no one cares about it for a long time, and it will not be discovered."
Cao Zi'an bowed and said respectfully.
"Good."
"It's time to go, or the one in the palace won't be able to wait."
"The settling-in allowance that should be given cannot be less, time is short, let them enjoy themselves."
Li Wuji nodded and said earnestly.
"Don't worry, Childe, it's all given at ten times the cost, and they know what they should do, and they're all ready."
Cao Zi'an nodded and said respectfully.
Li Wuji took a sip of tea, didn't say anything more, sat quietly on the stone bench, listened to the intermittent construction sound not far away, and fell into deep thought.
This sat for half a day, until the sun set, and Pang Xiaoxiao, who was still unsatisfied, finally returned to the pavilion and was embarrassed to say that he was hungry.
Li Wuji smiled, then got up, left the mansion with Pang Xiaoxiao, got into the carriage at the door, and headed towards Zibo Ju.
As the sun sets, the reflection of the sunset also casts a purple-red halo on the entire capital.
"Brother, I heard that Ziboju has recently come out with a new dish?"
Pang Xiaoxiao sat opposite Wuji and asked curiously.
"Yes, it's called roast duck."
Li Wuji smiled and nodded.
"You're new again? What does it taste like? ”
Pang Xiaoxiao asked curiously.
"The guests all said it was good, but I don't know if it suits your appetite, and you'll know after tasting it in a while."
Li Wuji said with a smile.
"Okay."
Pang Xiaoxiao agreed, full of anticipation, and couldn't help licking his lips.
"Childe!"
At this moment, Lu Yuan's slightly solemn voice suddenly came from outside the carriage.
Because Pang Xiaoxiao called himself hungry, he asked Lu Yuan to choose a shortcut, and at this time he was in an alley that could only accommodate just enough for a carriage to pass.
Cao Zi'an separated from them after leaving Anhou Mansion and went to do other things, and now there are only the three of them.
After Li Wuji heard Lu Yuan's warning, he couldn't help but change his face.
Immediately after, the carriage suddenly stopped, and Li Wuji had already vaguely sensed the battle intent coming from Lu Yuan's body!
Ambush!
"Stay in the carriage and don't come out no matter what happens!"
Li Wuji reacted instantly, told Pang Xiaoxiao, and slowly got up and walked out.
I saw that twenty or thirty masked killers had appeared in the alley, blocking all the front and back roads of the carriage, and several killers were standing on the high walls on both sides, all with cold faces and sharp weapons!
"Childe, do you want to warn?"
Lu Yuan touched his waist and asked softly.
He had a ringing arrow tied to his waist, and as long as he pulled it, people from Tianshu and Tianyuan would immediately rush to support.
"No need."
"Xiaoxiao has my protection, it will be fine, you play slowly."
Li Wuji smiled and said lightly, full of contempt for the masked killer who suddenly appeared around.
In fact, he didn't want to attract the people of the Five Elements Division and the Du Yingwei, so as not to attract the attention of many people.
Since the other party is stopping him, let this be the death place for these people.
"Good!"
Lu Yuan agreed, and a touch of killing intent flashed in his eyes in an instant!
But at this moment, a hunchbacked old man suddenly slowly walked out of the crowd in front of him, and his eyes were full of hatred when he looked at Li Wuji.
"Chu You?!"
Seeing this person, Lu Yuan recognized it at a glance and shouted in some surprise.
Li Wuji also recognized it, this hunchbacked old man was the missing Tu Jiu's henchman, Chu You!
"Very well, it seems that you still remember the old decay! Save the explanation! ”
Chu You snorted coldly, glared at Li Wuji, who was standing on top of the wheel, and said fiercely.
"You're here to avenge Tu Jiu?"
Li Wuji sneered and asked lightly.
"The ninth master treats me like a mountain, this revenge will not be avenged, and I will not be a man!"
Chu You glared at Li Wuji and said fiercely.
"Yes, he is a loyal man, but do you think you can kill me?"
Li Wuji smiled and asked disdainfully.
"If you can kill it, you can't kill it, just try it!"
Chu You snorted coldly, and as he spoke, he had raised his right hand, ready to give an order.
"Spare him first, I have something to ask him."
Li Wuji sneered and said lightly.
As soon as the words fell, Lu Yuan had already taken off the sword box behind his back, stood at Li Wuji's feet, and then ejected, rushing directly towards Chu You!
"Kill him!"
At the same time, Chu You has also given an order!
As the words fell, more than a dozen masked killers standing in front of the carriage had already roared up and greeted Lu Yuan!
All of a sudden, the sound of gold and iron resonating was endless, and in just one shot, three killers had already died under Lu Yuan's sword!
Since there were enemies in front and behind, Lu Yuan didn't have any strength, and almost every sword used all his strength, and no one could stop him at all!
Li Wuji stood on top of the wheel, gently holding the sword box with his right hand, watching everything that happened in front of him with cold eyes, with a faint sneer on the corner of his mouth.
Since Tu Jiu was killed, the remaining forces have been secretly dealt with by Tianshu, except for this Chu You, his whereabouts have not been found, but he didn't expect to hold back a big move, wanting to avenge Tu Jiu.
Since he was sent to the door today, Li Wuji didn't think about letting him leave alive, but there was a question he hadn't figured out yet, and he needed to ask Chu You in person...
