Chapter 140: The Li Family's Secrets

"Li family?" Xu Zhilei's gaze fell on the teacup, and then looked at Li Mu again. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After Li Mu said it, he was actually a little apprehensive in his heart. Someone said before that he was from the Li family, but he always thought that someone else was mistaken. He didn't take it to heart either. But now, after he drank this tea, he suddenly realized the seriousness of this matter.

The tea I drank since I was a child turned out to be the Li family's unique medicinal tea. If it is Xu Zhilei's identity, then it seems that it is not a problem to be able to get the Li family's unique medicinal tea. But how could his father know how to make this tea? Could it be that he once went to the Li family to study? But he is unique, can he teach it to others at will?

His surname is Li, the same Li. This has to be suspicious.

If suspicion doesn't have much weight in Li Mu's heart, then after he is poisoned, his chest will become like white jade, which is the body of gold and stone that he had heard from Huang Xudong. This is the unique physique of the Li family.

Li Mu had a doubt in his heart, could it be that he was really a member of the Li family?

Thinking about it, Li Mu suddenly searched for a small thing in his memory. That was when he stayed in the Heavenly Eagle Temple with the master of the King Kong Temple, and they had met someone sent by the Wang and Li families to participate in the summer examination of the Martial Arts Academy. Wang Tiezhu of the Wang family, Li Du of the Li family.

Li Mu remembered that when he introduced himself as Li Mu, Wang Tiezhu said, "Hey, this Mu character is also a strip of water, Li Du, I can't tell which house grandson of your Li family, right?"

The names of the children and grandchildren of famous families often have the same characters or sides because of their generation. For example, in the Ning family, Ning Zhitong's cousin is called Ning Zhiyan. In their generation, their names are all two words, and the first word is Zhi.

Thinking about it like this, Li Mu's suspicions about this matter became a little more serious. So, he wanted to know what had happened to the Li family.

Li Mu looked at Xu Zhilei, then nodded and said, "Li of Ninglu King Li." ”

Xu Zhilei said with emotion: "The Li family's affairs back then, if you go and ask an older person, you should have heard about it." After all, it was a scandal. After saying this, he changed his words, "But most of the scandals that can be circulated are after remediation." At that time, many things were stuffed by the Li family and became secrets. However, the most important thing that Tingfeng Xuan lacks is secrets. ”

Xu Zhilei smiled at Li Mu, and in his smile, Li Mu saw incomparable confidence. Xu Zhilei took a sip of tea, "This has to start from the beginning." ”

"The ancestral hall of the Li family is in Shuzhou, which is the westernmost part of the country. Further west is the Yundian Kingdom. Shuzhou is mountainous, but the climate is warm. It is most suitable for cultivating camellia. Local specialties include famous teas such as Qingwu and Feihe. The Li family started with tea at the earliest. ”

"The Li family was the first local tea merchant, and with their excellent cultivation and frying skills, their tea is unique. In addition to this, they have also developed a unique medicinal tea. Therefore, the Li family soon obtained the qualification of the imperial court tribute tea. Since then, the Li family has begun to take off. ”

"The Li family's unique physique is the body of gold and stone. This title is the name of the Li family themselves, and this physique is the biggest secret of the Li family. It is rumored that in order to cultivate tea, the ancestors of the Li family went up the mountain to find improved varieties of wild tea, and after tasting all the hundred teas, the changes in the body occurred. But I won't believe this, this allusion is just a copy of Shennong's taste of a hundred herbs, probably because the descendants of the Li family are just glorifying their ancestors. Fufeng Pavilion once made a decision back then, saying that this was actually a disease. But as far as we know, this constitution is indeed resistant to poison. ”

Listening to Xu Zhilei say this, Li Mu was also thinking back to the time when he met Su Jin, a disciple of the Four Elephant Poison Sect, who poisoned him. At that time, there were four different poisons in his body, and the skin on his chest turned into a piece of white jade. He was able to hold out until Tang Zhao brought back for treatment, and the golden stone body seemed to have an effect.

These are the ways in which the Li family made their fortune. Of course, for the Jianghu people, their family's martial arts must also be mentioned. Ninglu Wang Li, the ancestral martial arts of the Ning family are the Burning Silence Gong and the Fire Palm, as for the Lu family, it is the Wind Knife Technique, the Wang Family is the Xifeng Leg, and the Li Family is the Sword Technique, the Qingye Sword Technique. Xu Zhilei said lightly, introducing the background of the Li family to Li Mu. He thought that he had almost laid the groundwork, and then continued, "The Li family has always been smooth sailing, and when the first four major families were called, it was Li Ning Wang Lu. The Li family is the first, but unfortunately, the scandal that began twenty years ago directly turned the Li family from the head of the four major families to the end. ”

"Twenty years ago, there was an incident that shook the foundation of the country - Yuwang Chen Tianyu rebelled. At that time, the owner of the Li family's big house, that is, Li Jin, the head of the Li family, bet on the wrong treasure. He bet the Li family on King Yu, wanting to rebel through King Yu and become the second king side by side. It's a pity that King Yu is in front of the palace, because of one person, the success is lost. As a result, the Li family also suffered a catastrophe. ”

Li Mu listened to it and participated in the rebellion, which is a big crime. As far as he knew, facing this crime in the Great Discipline, it would cost the Nine Clans to be late.

Xu Zhilei looked at Li Mu's expression, as if he knew what he was thinking. "Yes, according to the laws of this dynasty, not only the nine clans will be punished, but also Ling Chi. But the Li family didn't. There is a way that money can communicate with the gods, and at that time, after the war, everything was waiting to be enjoyed. After killing all the Li family's big house, the Li family exchanged money for the peace of the other branches. ”

Li Mu listened to Xu Zhilei speak lightly at this time, but he could feel the killing and conspiracy behind the words.

"The Li family's trick of breaking the tail to survive, no, it should be said that the head and arms were cut off, and it worked. The rest of the rooms remained, and the people in the original second room inherited the main lineage of the Li family. This person is the current head of the Li family, Li Jin's second brother, Li Qin. Although Li Qin did not have his brother's pioneering talents, it was enough to keep it. The money used to buy life hurt the bones of the Li family, and the Li family had to recuperate. ”

However, there was an incident that once again hit the Li family hard. Xu Zhilei took a sip of tea from the teacup and continued, "The beginning of the story is on the remnants of a big house. ”

"At the beginning, the big house was killed by the imperial court, but there was still a fish that slipped through the net. This person's name is Li Tan. When the imperial court searched for the bloodline of the big house, Li Tan was hidden by the slave surname who was loyal to the Li family's big house. At that time, the Li family had five slave vassals. The largest of them is also surnamed Li. ”

Speaking of which, Xu Zhilei didn't need to look at Li Mu's face to know that there must be something strange on his face, so he paused and said, "These two Lis are not of the same sect, nor are they of the same origin, they are just coincidences. So as slaves, they can only be surnamed Li Li. ”

"What?" Li Mu was a little surprised.

Xu Zhilei explained, "The slave surname attached to the big family is also called the Yongjia. It's like the relationship between the suzerainty and the fanbang. They are attached to everyone and driven by everyone. And the big family treats them as their own. After becoming a slave, you must take the surname of the master in front of your own surname. For example, Ning Mei's, Wang Lan's. The name sounds like what a woman calls after she gets married, which is also somewhat similar. The surname Li Li sounds a little ugly. But it's really a coincidence. Of course, when today's surname is Chen, if it is the surname Chen, no one dares to let them add another surname in front. ”

"It's far away, I said before that Li Li was a diehard loyalist of Dafang at that time, and left a bloodline for Dafang - Li Tan. The Li family originally turned a blind eye and tacitly acquiesced to his existence as the name Li Li Tan. But Li Tan and the second room, that is, the eldest daughter of the current big house, Li Ying, are childhood sweethearts, and their feelings are getting deeper. As the head of the family, Li Qin, of course, didn't want Li Jin's bloodline to appear in his own room again, not to mention that once Li Tan was discovered, he would be killed by the imperial court, so he categorically separated the two. recruited a son-in-law for his daughter. ”

"This son-in-law is the second son of Lingzhou Sword Villa, named Xu Can. ”

"Lingzhou Sword Pulling Villa?" Li Mu suddenly shouted. Because Xu Hu, who had just had a conflict with him, seems to be the person from Sword Drawing Villa!

"What?" Xu Zhilei asked, looking at him. Li Mu hurriedly waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, you continue." ”

Xu Zhilei nodded and said, "Xu Can and Li Ying got married, and there were also considerations for both families. But Li Tan intervened even after Li Ying's marriage. At this, his face turned strange. Li Tan actually led the Li Li family to make a big fuss about the wedding banquet and forcibly took Li Ying away at the wedding banquet. It wasn't until three years later that Li Ying was recovered. But it took three years to elope and come back, and everything that should have happened should have happened. So the second son of Draw Sword Villa wore a green hat. ”

After listening to him, Li Mu also knew why he was weird. Men, too, are very sensitive to the color change of the hat on their head. He couldn't help but ask, "What about when you come back?"

"After coming back, of course I chose to forgive her......" Speaking of this, Xu Zhilei also laughed, "The Li family just said that she was deceived by Li Tan because she was young." As for Xu Can, as a son-in-law, his opinion is not important. Li Ying is still the eldest daughter of the Li family, and she and Xu Hu gave birth to a daughter named Li Xiang. Although the matter has passed, this scandal is also a big blow to the reputation of the Li family, and then there is the biggest rebellion of the slave surname, the Li family has repeatedly tossed, and the strength has dropped a few points. But that's all later. It is rumored that Li Ying and Li Tan also have a child. This is a matter of chasing after the wind and shadows, and it should not be true. The Li family will never admit it. Speaking of this, Xu Zhilei was suddenly stunned.

Li Mu's face also became a little ugly.

"Huh?" Xu Zhilei excitedly picked up the fold of the book on the desk as if he had discovered something, "Sixteen years old, King Yu rebelled twenty years ago, and Li Ying was recruited a year later. Then, nineteen years minus three years is exactly six out of ten. Fifteen years ago, he settled in Shengzhou...... This, this, this ......" Xu Zhilei's eyes suddenly lit up. He looked up at Li Mu, his eyes full of incredible colors.

"All of this is worthy of Li Mu!"
