Chapter 142: Someone Is Coming into the City

"Yes. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xu Zhilei leaned back in his chair, "But this knife is not easy to use." ”

"It doesn't work? I don't think so. Li Mu said slowly. "The news is well used, and it can be described as a soldier who surrenders without a fight. This is Li Mu's heartfelt words. There is a way that everyone is golden, and the three of them become tigers. Li Mu remembered that Mr. Su once told them a story.

In the story, there is a rich man who is willing to give. The wealthy were inspired by the "Book of Rites" and funded the opening of the Zhongxin Yuan to accommodate widows, widows, lonely and sick people. This was a good thing, and even the government praised it greatly. But the villagers are idle and scoundrels, and they also have to eat and drink. The rich expelled these good people who did not want to be self-reliant. So those scoundrels began to spread rumors, saying that the good deeds of the Houses of Mercy were just a cover, but behind the scenes, they were doing evil things of harvesting and cutting. At first, no one paid attention to it, but after a long time, the rumors spread more and more, and gradually some people began to believe it.

In order to prove their claims, the group of scoundrels also found a poor man with his legs amputated and coerced him to frame the rich man. As a result, more and more people are beginning to believe the rumors and are convinced. They went to the rich and forced them to confess. They even think that the rich can accumulate wealth through such cruel means.

The rich man is speechless, and he proves his innocence, but no one believes him. Later, even the government came to check on him. In the end, the rich man couldn't withstand the leisurely mouth of everyone, and on a moonlit night, he committed suicide by hanging the beam.

At that time, Mr. Su told this story to warn students that they should judge everything for themselves and not believe rumors. Don't follow the crowd and be an accomplice to spread falsehood. That's a trip to dementia, and it's despised by a gentleman.

Li Mu felt that some of the things in this story could be applied to the matter of listening to Fengxuan. Tingfeng Xuan is the most well-informed place in the rivers and lakes, and almost all wind media are. All the people in the rivers and lakes know that as long as they can afford the price, they can buy the news they want in Tingfeng Xuan. And their messages have always been accurate.

This is even more powerful than the rogue in the story. Because of what they said, some people were still suspicious at first, but no one would doubt it after hearing Fengxuan's news.

In such a situation, even if Feng Xuan released false news to the outside world, others would be convinced.

Therefore, Li Mucai suspected that Yue Yefeng had robbed the shark bead and took it for himself. This kind of news was deliberately released by Tingfeng Xuan. But Li Mu couldn't understand the purpose of their doing. Yue Yefeng, when he was Jiang Shu, he was indeed a pivotal figure, but now, twenty years have passed, he is no longer in the limelight, why did Ting Fengxuan target him?

Xu Zhilei looked at Li Mu, and he said, "This is not a knife, this is a sword." The sword has two blades, and if you don't use it well, you can hurt yourself. This consumes Tingfeng Xuan's credibility. ”

"So, you don't hesitate to risk losing your credibility to deal with Jiang Shu?" Li Mu asked rhetorically.

Xu Zhilei smiled, "Jiang Shuo was too famous back then, too famous. So, too many people want him to die. You seem to be very close to Jiang Shuo, I advise you, it is important to save your life. ”

Li Mu frowned when he heard this. "I have witnessed the strength of Yue Jushi, and I believe that he can reach Yacheng. ”

"Since we're talking, I don't mind saying that. He couldn't get into the city. After Xu Zhilei finished saying this, he didn't want to say more about Li Mu and Jiang Shu. He tried to turn the conversation back to Shen Li. "You'd better take care of yourself. Especially your companion, Shen Li. ”

"The more you can reveal information about her now, the safer she will be. Xu Zhilei said.

Li Mu was a little dazed, "I don't understand." ”

Xu Zhilei shrugged his shoulders, "I'm not afraid to tell you that you have survived until now, thanks to Ding Anbo." ”

"Ding Anbo?" Li Mu seemed to be a little familiar with this title, but he couldn't remember who it was.

"Tianzi No. 2 Grandmaster, the actual controller of the Grandmaster Hall, Dong Wen, Dong Jueye. Xu Zhilei nodded at Li Mu.

"He?" Hearing Dong Wen's name, Li Mu remembered the old man outside Songyang City, who was wearing exaggerated court clothes and waving his hand, summoning a starry sky. "Why him?"

Xu Zhilei chuckled, "If he hadn't stopped Wu Xiaoxing, you wouldn't have enough nine lives to die." ”

"Wu Xiaoxing?" is another name that Li Mu doesn't know.

Xu Zhilei patiently introduced Li Mu: "Tianzi No. 3 was originally the second general under the side of King Xu Liao, Wu Xiaoxing, General Wu. Du Jiang is the most convincing person. He paused and said, "They are the same kind of people, and they advocate directly arresting Shen Li, torture him, and forcing him to ask for the truth." And Dong Jueye felt that Shen Li was very involved behind him, and it was easy to startle the snake if he rashly made a move on Shen Li. The two parties have their own opinions, so there are things that Zhou Mo and Du Jiang did. ”

"It's not that you're lucky, it's that they don't agree. Do you understand?" Xu Zhilei sighed.

Li Mu was silent.

"So, the more you talk about it now, the more detailed it is, the more they know, the less they want to dig something out of Shen Li. That's what you're saying. Don't forget, you're also a wanted prisoner in the Cabinet Hall now. ”

"Can you get the government hall to cancel the wanted warrant?" Li Mu ignored it completely, and instead asked about Xu Zhilei.

Xu Zhilei replied, "I can let others listen to the news that Fengxuan can't buy you." ”

Hearing this, Li Mu thought for a while before saying, "Shen Li, she was instructed by someone. But she didn't know who the man was, and the man just told her with a note that she would dig up the shark beads somewhere in Songyang City, and then die outside Songyang City. ”

"Hmm, died outside Songyang City?" Xu Zhilei was originally holding a pen and preparing to write down Li Mu's words, but when he heard Li Mu's words, he suddenly raised his head. Because this is so unreasonable, send someone to get the shark pearl, and after getting it, instead of trying to get it back, let this person die outside the city?

Xu Zhilei frowned and asked, "Then will Shen Li die obediently?"

Li Mu nodded, "Yes, she is very obedient to die." After speaking, he looked at the shocked expression on Xu Zhilei's face, and then laughed at himself, "If it weren't for my troubles, she would be dead by now." ”

"Who is the person behind her, and why is she so obedient?" Xu Zhilei seemed to ask Li Mu, but it was more like asking himself.

Li Mu smiled at this time, "No." At that time, she just happened to have a heart for death. As he spoke, he told Xu Zhilei about Ling Jiuhao's desire to use Shen Li.

In the small city, Li Mu swallowed the shark beads and fell into a sleep, and when he woke up, Shen Li told him that it was Ling Jiuhao who saved them. Li Mu naturally asked Ling Jiuhao why he was able to arrive in time. So, Shen Li told Li Mu the whole thing.

After Xu Zhilei heard the cause and effect, he fell silent, and he held a pen in his hand to write and draw on the paper.

Li Mu glanced at the pen she was writing and continued: "She didn't know about this matter at all. On the contrary, it is full of eccentricity. But Xu Zhilei was obviously caught in some kind of thinking, he didn't answer Li Mu's words, and continued to write on the paper.

Seeing this, Li Mu reached out to get the teacup. Only then did he realize that the tea in the cup had cooled. Li Mu hid his face with his sleeves and yawned. Xu Zhilei was still writing over there, picking up the teacup and drinking as he wrote. He didn't care about the temperature of the tea.

After a long time, Xu Zhilei raised his head.

Li Mu said to him: "I know everything, I have already told you." Can you fulfill what you said?" Li Mu was referring to, naturally, listening to Feng Xuan's news of him and Shen Li.

Xu Zhilei nodded, "Your news is very important. I'll go and explain it. However, someone from the Wang family came to you with something that I couldn't refuse, and I gave it to them. I don't know what the Wang family is looking for you. ”

"The Wang family?" Li Mu thought about it carefully, he didn't seem to have anything to do with the Wang family, why did the Wang family also look for him? Is it also for the sake of the shark bead?

Li Mu shook his head vigorously, it was early in the morning, Li Mu was sleepy, and his brain was a little drowsy. He stood up, saluted Xu Zhilei, and said, "Brother Xu, I can't hold it anymore. I went back to sleep first. ”

Xu Zhilei was in good spirits, he nodded, put down his pen and stood up. "Li Mu, I can let Tingfeng Xuan hide your news, but don't expose yourself. What will happen to you after you swallow the shark beads, we will send someone to continue to follow up, and I hope you will cooperate. ”

Li Mu didn't know Xu Zhilei's intentions, but he did have his own thoughts. So, he nodded. He walked to the door, ready to go out.

Xu Zhilei suddenly stopped him, "Even if Jiang Shu arrives in Yacheng, you'd better not go to Jiang Shu." This is my advice. ”

Li Mu turned his head, glanced at Xu Zhilei, nodded slightly, and walked out.

Outside the door, the servant who led the way was waiting there, and when he saw Li Mu coming out, he walked out directly with Li Mu.

In the shadow of the corner, Ximen Ji saw Li Mu leaving, yawned, jumped out of the pavilion, and walked into Xu Zhilei's room. Xu Zhilei sat at the desk with a frown, looking at the paper on the table.

"How is this kid?" asked Simon with a smile.

Xu Zhilei didn't look up, but said, "Smarter than I imagined, and shrewd." Very vigilant, and a master who doesn't see a rabbit and doesn't scatter an eagle. ”

Simon was stunned, "Huh, it sounds like a sinister and cunning person." It looks like he's loyal and honest on the outside. ”

"Heh, I just laid the groundwork for a long time, trying to lead him to speak, but he looked at him twice. It wasn't until I came up with the terms of the exchange that he would say what I wanted to know. Of course, it is not ruled out that he will lie for the sake of Shen Li. ”

"The young master's evaluation is already high, isn't it?" Simon scratched his head.

"Not only that, the next time you have the opportunity to poison him, try if he has a body of gold and stone. I suspect that he is from the Li family. Moreover, it was the blood of the Li family that was left out when the Li family was scandalous. Xu Zhilei said quietly.

Simon Ji's face changed, "Really?"

"Five points certain. That's why you need to verify it. If it is, hehe, the direct bloodline of the Li family who is flowing outside has swallowed the shark pearl. And he has a close relationship with Jiang Shuo and Taiyi's disciples. Tsk, that's interesting. Xu Zhilei narrowed his eyes. "So, I decided to support Dingamber. Such a person deserves his life. ”

"He's a smart man, and he understands what I reminded him of. Now you have to prepare another big thing, so he's okay for the time being. Speaking of this, Xu Zhilei raised his eyes and glanced at Ximen Ji. "How's the preparation for the man's entry into the city?"

Ximen Ji stood up straight and saluted: "Your Majesty has given the order, and everything is ready." ”

Xu Zhilei laughed, "Then, now it's just a matter of waiting for that man to return to this city." ”

"I'm looking forward to it. ”
