Chapter 261: All kinds of strange things
Li Guan, who left from the courtyard, returned the original way, and when he went back, he bought breakfast for Li Mu by the way, and then went back directly to the City Lord's Mansion.
Li Mu was draped in a blanket, his face was pale, and he sat on the chair with a languid face, and when he saw Li Guan coming in with breakfast, he suddenly coughed violently.
"City Lord, are you alright?" Li Guan nervously leaned over.
Li Mu shook his head, and then watched Li Guan take out the breakfast in his hand and put it in front of Li Mu one after another.
Li Mu's pale face gradually turned rosy, and there was also a shallow smile on his face, "Li Guan, do you know why I like to eat breakfast so much?"
Li Guan thought for a moment, and then whispered back: "The city lord likes it purely, right? ”
Li Mu hurriedly shook his head, suddenly laughed, and said: "Don't laugh when you say it, the reason why I like to eat breakfast is because I am afraid, I am afraid that after I fall asleep, I will not wake up, so when I can see the breakfast you bring every day, I am extremely happy, which means that I can live one more day!"
These calm and smiling words directly suppressed Li Guan's mood, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely solemn.
Seeing that Li Guan didn't speak, Li Mu hurriedly persuaded: "What's the daze, hurry up and sit down and eat with me." ”
Li Guan waved his hand, "I've already eaten it, and I ate it with Lu An." ”
Li Mu directly laughed and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, you are a martial artist of a fast sect master, is it difficult for you to drink an extra bowl of porridge for breakfast?"
Li Guan's face turned red with shame, this seemed to be unreasonable, but it seemed to be very reasonable, no matter how he responded, it seemed that he couldn't get a good one.
Helpless, Li Guan casually took a pair of chopsticks, picked up a bowl of porridge, and drank it directly.
At this moment, Li Mucai nodded with satisfaction, pinched a small steamed bun, and ate it slowly.
After Li Guan finished eating, he just wiped his mouth twice, Li Mu's words rang on the side again, and a handkerchief was thrown over.
"Appearance!" Li Mu urged.
Li Guan hurriedly wiped it with this hand towel, and then put away the not simple embroidered hand towel.
Seeing Li Guan's action of putting it away, Li Mu showed a helpless smile again, and shook his head with a wry smile, "I don't know how to help you change your temperament!"
Li Guan scratched his head and smirked.
After Li Mu ate half of it, he put down the steamed bun in his hand, put away the smiling expression he had just now, his face slowly became serious, and asked, "Did Lu An take over?"
Hearing that he was down to business, Li Guan sat up a little upright and nodded, "Go, I brought it personally." ”
Li Mu snorted, "Didn't you tell him the reason?"
"The reason I said was that after Jing Dashao left, the gang was left unattended for the time being, and let him go to condescension for two days, and then he agreed. Li Guan replied.
Li Mu nodded, "This reason is so-so, it's okay, after going in, what is his and the gang's reaction." ”
"It's basically the same as the city lord's expectations, Childe's way is extremely simple, and he directly uses the strongest means to deal with it, on the other hand, those people are confused, as if they are very surprised by the appearance of Childe, but it doesn't seem to be as flustered as you said from the city lord, and I didn't see anything wrong at that time. Li Guan replied lightly.
Li Mu narrowed his eyes in surprise, "The toughest means?"
Li Guan nodded and snorted, "Childe told me earlier that he wanted to teach everyone a lesson at once." ”
Li Mu laughed directly in surprise, "I didn't expect Lu An to be so tough, this is indeed a bit unexpected by me, but it's okay like this, those people will show some flaws, right?"
Li Guan suddenly said worriedly: "City Lord, there are a few people here who seem to know Lu An, they look at Lu An with a little strange eyes, there won't really be a problem at that time, right? ”
Li Mu frowned and didn't answer this question immediately, looked at the breakfast table in front of him, suddenly sighed, and said a little uneasily: "Actually, I'm quite worried about this matter, but since the adults said so, then we can only do it temporarily, but we have to plan well and try not to let this kind of thing happen." ”
Hearing Li Mu say this, Li Guan also nodded, and then asked, "Yesterday, that adult was fighting with the Sword Saint on the outskirts of the city, right?"
"Yes, but I don't know the specifics, it's a pity that I didn't see this scene, it's a pity, the duel between the two peerless masters is not so easy to see. Li Mu also sighed.
"Then who does the city lord think has won?" asked Li Guan.
Li Mu blurted out directly, "Of course the adults won, and the name of the first person in the north is not called in vain." ”
"Yes, I think so, too. Li Guan smiled.
After the two of them finished laughing, they seemed to be a little bottomless in their hearts, since yesterday, Wu Xie Ke has not returned here, and no one seems to know what the real outcome of this battle is.
Li Mu can only rely on his own words to forcibly comfort himself, if Wu Xie is really defeated, then everything he is doing now will come to naught, and Wu Xie is the real pillar of this matter.
Otherwise, how could these sects of the Sword Pavilion Taiyi Sect be able to deal with him as a city lord of the National Wind City?
Although he was very confident in Wu Jie, Li Mu's heart was still a little nervous at this time, who made the opponent the legendary Sword Saint?
"Li Guan, you go to Xiaoyao Pavilion to ask about the specific situation, how was it last night? And ask when Taiyizong will arrive, they are a little uncertain in terms of stop-and-go time, and finally urge Fan Chengde to do things faster, it seems that something happened last night. Li Mu threw three things out at once, and the more he spoke, the more solemn his expression became.
Li Guan also sensed Li Mu's uneasiness, and immediately nodded and respectfully retired.
After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Li Guan came to the dilapidated wine shop.
There was a slight knock on the door, and a fat-headed, big-eared head came out.
When Fan Fatzi saw Li Guan, his eyes glared out directly, "What are you doing here?"
Li Guan replied lightly: "Is the adult here?"
Fan Fatzi rolled his eyes and asked rhetorically, "Which adult?"
"It's an adult, it doesn't matter who it is. After Li Guan said this, he directly pushed the door hard.
Fan Fatzi staggered, a trace of anger appeared on his face, and his mouth also scolded, "If I hadn't beaten you, I would have beaten you up a long time ago!"
Li Guan glanced at him, ignored Fan Fatzi's words, and walked directly inside.
After taking two steps, Li Guan saw the familiar figure, sitting inside drinking tea and chatting with Xiao Wu.
Li Guan greeted the two adults. Li Guan saluted respectfully.
Wu Xie smiled, "Why are you here?"
"I want to come to Xiao Lao to learn something about Taiyizong. Li Guan said.
After Xiao Wu heard this, he stretched out his hand to Fan Fatzi, and Fan Fatzi understood that he would directly hook Li Guan's shoulder and pull him out, "You can just ask me about this matter, don't bother these two adults." ”
After seeing Wu Jie, Li Guan also let Fan Fatzi pull him out.
Fan Fatzi pressed Li Guan on the chair, and then said with a snort: "What's the hurry, listen to me tell you slowly." ”
Li Guan looked at Fan Fatzi and motioned for him to hurry up.
Fan Fatzi poured a cup of tea for Li Guan without hurry, and said slowly: "Let's finally see each other, do you want to talk for a while?"
Li Guan's brows furrowed directly, and his eyes rolled wildly.
Fan Fatzi pretended not to see his expression, and still said to himself, "The last time we met was three years ago, right? At that time, you had just arrived in the Six Realms, and now in a blink of an eye, you are almost touching the threshold of the grandmaster, do you want to thank me?"
Li Guan blinked, not knowing what to say.
"I know that you are a person with no conscience, this attitude is still the same as before, not enthusiastic at all, we have known each other for so many years, why can't we have a good chat?" Fan Fat said with a sigh.
"Big brother, don't talk about this kind of old thing, you have to talk about it every time you meet!" Li Guan's eyes were about to turn to the sky.
Fan Fatzi stomped his feet suddenly, and the fat on his body shook instantly, and he said very unhappily: "You stinky boy, you even know how to call me a big brother! Alas, I'm so angry!"
Although he said this, Fan Fatzi's action of turning things over was extremely pleasant, and after a while, he turned out a letter from a pile of letters.
Fan Fatzi sat opposite Li Guan and read it directly, "Taiyi Sect Chu He and everyone will arrive in Guofeng City in three days, this letter was sent two days ago, so it means that Chu He should arrive tomorrow, and Sword Pavilion Mukuan also brought some people over." ”
Li Guan's brows furrowed very tightly, and he said puzzledly: "So fast?"
Fan Fatzi nodded, and the flesh of his chin trembled twice, "That's right, it's so fast, Taiyizong suddenly sped up for some reason, and it was still slow before, I don't know why the movements suddenly became fast, and the Sword Pavilion didn't know why they came over together, by the way, there are a few people you don't want to see, they should have already come, and there are a lot of people who vacated last night, too hasty, I didn't recognize them at once, and I don't know many people." ”
"So many people came at once?" Li Guan said a little worriedly.
Fan Fatzi said angrily: "It's not your own work, come to the east, come to the west, who knows how much your news has been scattered, in my opinion, Lu An is going to be killed by you, who are you looking for?"
Li Guan scratched his head and replied with an embarrassed face: "I don't know much about this matter, the adult inside should know very well, you can ask him." ”
Fan Fatzi also rolled his eyes, "What else do you want to know?" ”
Li Guan thought for a moment, and then asked, "Except for the Sword Pavilion and the Taiyi Sect, there shouldn't be anyone here, right?"
Fan Fatzi shook his head, "That's not all, there are many people who are also slowly moving towards Guofeng City, as if they have made an appointment." ”
Li Guan nodded, looking thoughtful, "Who are those two people who have been following Lu An before?
Fan Fatzi twisted slightly, and smiled, "If nothing happens, these two people should be from the Xiliang Sword Sect, but when did they target Lu An, I don't know, Lu An's head is worth five hundred spirit crystal essences in their hands, which is not a small amount, and it is understandable that someone follows him." ”
"Where are they now, do you know?" asked Li Guan.
Fan Fatzi immediately shook his head, "Where do I know the specific location, but it must still be in this city now, maybe he is still following Lu An." ”
Li Guan shook his head and denied: "I personally sent Lu An to a place this morning, I didn't find anyone following, it shouldn't be possible." ”
Fan Fatzi pouted, "Then I don't know, these two people are also masters of the Five Realms, and it's not easy to hide! You still have to ask Fan Chengde about this matter, yesterday a large group of soldiers entered the city, and they simply regarded us all as fools, and the toss was very lively, who doesn't know that the Jianzhang Battalion has taken over Guofeng City now?"
Hearing this, Li Guan immediately frowned, this Fan Chengde was so frizzy in doing things, it was really a bit surprising! Now I understood what Li Mu meant by what he said earlier.
Fan Fat Man Li Guan lost his voice all of a sudden, and he was also extremely puzzled, and asked suspiciously: "What's wrong?
Li Guan shook his head and asked one last question, "Is there any news of Wei Wei?"
"Isn't he missing for two months? Fan Fatzi shook his head and said.
Immediately, Li Guan got up immediately, said lightly and left, and then left directly.
Fan Fatzi stared at the back of Li Guan leaving, and scolded again.
After Li Guan came out of the wine shop, he went directly to find Fan Chengde, and when he found him, he saw him sitting on the ground resting with a tired face, looking at the dark circles on his face, thinking that he should not have rested last night.
When Fan Chengde saw Li Guan approaching, he immediately stood up from the ground and greeted, "My lord." ”
Li Guan nodded, "The general didn't rest all night last night?"
Fan Chengde blushed, nodded, and said embarrassedly: "There was a little accident last night, and after a night's tossing, during the handover, a few thieves in black suddenly appeared, and they were arrested all night, and finally they ran away." ”
Li Guan showed an extremely puzzled expression, and said uneasily: "Is there such a thing?
Fan Chengde nodded ashamedly, "These people are extremely familiar with the terrain here, scurrying around the city, turning over and over, and they will be lost after a while." ”
Seeing that Li Guan's expression gradually changed, Fan Chengde was ashamed and embarrassed, plus this time yesterday, the Jianzhang Battalion had already lost twice.
The Jianzhang Battalion, which once boasted of its invincibility, suffered two losses in a row at once, making Fan Chengde's face crackle, and he became more and more ashamed.
At this time, Li Guan suddenly smiled and comforted: "General, don't care, this is not a big deal, and when the Jianzhang Battalion takes over completely, these people will definitely not be able to escape." ”
Fan Chengde smiled a little bitterly, cheered up a little, and asked, "Do you have any instructions for your lordship to come this time?"
Li Guan smiled slightly and said, "It's not an order, it's just the two people that the city lord said yesterday, don't you know that the general has found it?"
Fan Chengde chuckled again in his heart, and shook his head with a wry smile, "I tossed all night yesterday, and there is no news from the brothers, but don't worry, my lord, before dawn tomorrow, I will definitely capture those two people." ”
Hearing this sound, Li Guan nodded and hummed, "The general has worked hard." ”
Fan Chengde waved his hand again and again, "It's not hard, it's not hard." ”
Li Guan then left.
After Li Guan left, Fan Chengde, who was ashamed, immediately turned into anger and shouted: "Where are the people! Where are they all dead? Why don't you hurry up and go out to find someone..."
Hearing the roar coming from behind him, Li Guan also smiled lightly, and turned to his next place, preparing to go back to his life.
After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, he relayed all the previous news to Li Mu.
Li Mu listened carefully, but his face seemed to be getting more and more wrong, revealing a complex and indescribable expression.
"You said that in addition to the Taiyi Sect, there are also Sword Pavilions here, and even people from other sects may also come?" Li Mu asked.
Li Guan nodded.
"It's only been two days since we revealed the news of Lu An to Yu Linwei, they were very suspicious at first, in order to dispel this suspicion, you just let Lu An go to that station this morning and give them an exact information, logically speaking, those people can't come so quickly, right? Taiyi Sect can still explain a thing or two, they were originally going to come, but why did Sword Pavilion and those other people also come over?" Li Mu asked in an extremely puzzled rhetorical question.
Li Guan shook his head and said affirmatively: "The things in this are definitely different from what we know, Taiyizong came here because Lord Yuwen invited them, but the Sword Pavilion and those others must have a purpose." ”
Li Mu's brows furrowed even tighter, and he pondered, "From now on, Taiyizong accepted the invitation of Lord Yuwen, this matter may be a strange thing, right? Taiyizong suddenly agreed to this matter two months ago, so he set off all the way from Chang'an City, looked east and west, and went to a lot of places, and now he is about to arrive in Guofeng City, Taiyizong is like a mad dog, going straight over, it is inevitably too strange, did we not think of it?"
Li Guan thought about it for a while, and also shook his head, "City Lord, now it is certain that there must be saucers in those Yulin Guards, and eighty percent of Lu An's news was spread through them, but which side of these people are from, this is debatable." ”
Li Mu nodded, "According to the current situation, these people are very likely to be from the Taiyi Sect, but if you think about it carefully, it is unlikely, how can the Taiyi Sect have the leisure to do such a thing?"
The two looked at each other for a moment, then fell silent.
