Chapter 69: The sky is about to change
"We're afraid we won't be able to get out of the cool country for a while. "In an inn in the capital of the Liang Kingdom, a shaman of the Wu clan was teasing a kitten.
The man tried to touch the kitten's head, but the kitten reluctantly avoided it. The man was not annoyed, smiled lightly, and said: "Although no matter how the situation of this Liang country changes, whether the Chen family or the Zhao Qiansun Li family is the emperor will not hinder our business." But for the sake of less trouble, it is better for us to stay in the cool country for a while. ”
"Don't worry, the blessing has been given, which also means that the contract has been signed. You have to accompany me on a pilgrimage to the holy mountain in the far north before you can gain the power to cultivate as an adult. The man tapped his finger at the kitten's forehead, "That's what you promised me." ”
"Why don't you fly away, you ask?" the man looked at the annoyed kitten and smiled slightly: "Good question, because I'm willing!"
"Alright, don't get excited. The man retracted his fingers, dodging the kitten's "sharp teeth".
The man looked at the kitten for a long time, and gradually put away his smile: "Actually, the power of the Wu clan is dying, and the power of the totem of our faith is weakening. Only by going to the sacred mountain in the far north can you activate the power of the totem again. Sincerity is spirituality, so I decided to go all the way from the south to the far north. This was a lonely trip, but fortunately I met you, you told me that you wanted to cultivate to adulthood, and I happened to have one less person to accompany me on this journey, so I used my own strength to bless you, just in exchange for companionship along the way. When the man said this, there was more tenderness in his gloomy eyes.
Looking at the eyes of the man in front of him, there was a rare look of sadness and loss, and the kitten also felt a little empathy, and it gently "meowed" a few times, as if to comfort this shaman who wanted to save the entire Wu clan by himself.
The man carefully put his hand on the kitten's head again, and this time the kitten did not run away, although it was still very reluctant, but after all, it was the man who touched his head. Fortunately, the man only touched it lightly and withdrew his hand.
"What is he doing at this time?" Tang Jinling suddenly remembered him, although she always thought of him.
The thought of him was a mess in his heart, and even the hair he had just repaired became a mess.
"Meow!" Tang Jinling scolded secretly, equivalent to "KAO" or something, and then jumped to the windowsill a little sullenly, ready to bask in the sun and relax. Since she began to cultivate slowly, her senses have become more and more developed, and she leaned on the windowsill and actually heard the conversation in the room downstairs. The guests downstairs had just left in the morning, and at this time there were two small servants in the room who were cleaning and chatting for some leisure. The voices of the two were not loud, but Tang Jinling heard them clearly.
"Liu Ancheng can't do it, do you know?!" a shrill voice first.
"Liu Ancheng, which Liu Ancheng?" This voice is a little rich, and he thinks he is an honest and honest person.
"Mrs. Liu, Liu Ancheng!" The shrill voice seemed to be surprised that honest people didn't know Mrs. Liu's name.
"How can you speak up about the old lady's name! This is a great disrespect!" some of the honest man's voices were a little scared and nervous
"What are you afraid of! This old man is dying, this is so cold, the sky is about to change!" The shrill voice was not panicked at all, and he talked eloquently.
"How do you know? Who told you that my Da Liang is going to change the sky? Even if Mrs. Liu Fu Immortal dies, our Da Liang will not be messed up!"
"What do you know! I have a distant relative in Weiwu Town, who came to the imperial capital a few days ago, and told me that Li Mu, the Duke of Weiguo, has been arrested and will be escorted to Beijing in the next few days!"
"What does this have to do with Mrs. Liu's disease?" asked the honest man.
"Of course it matters! Do you think, why did the old lady arrest Li Guogong when he was no longer able to do it? Li Guogong is a well-known neutral faction, neither a member of the Zheng faction nor a member of the Ji faction, he only obeys the orders of His Majesty the Emperor. ”
"yes, why?"
"It claims to be corruption, but there must be a mystery in it!"
"Oh, what's the secret?" asked the honest man very cooperatively.
"If I knew, I could sweep the floor with you here?"
"Cut! I thought you were so good!" the honest man's voice gradually became quieter, thinking that he was finished cleaning and was about to go out.
"Don't mind, I can tell you about Jingguo's autumn hunting! The newspaper I just read today said that a dragon appeared in Jingguo's Frost Mountain, and a man called ......" chased him in a shrill voice, and it gradually became inaudible, and the last one seemed to be a person's name, Tang Jinling didn't hear it clearly.
"It seems to be Xu Ming?" Tang Jinling's mind suddenly popped up with this name again, and then he scolded in a low voice: "KAO, why did the old lady think of him again!"
"Scumbag!" Tang Jinling gritted his teeth.
......
The City Lord's Mansion of Mighty Town.
Wei Guogong Li Mu was paralyzed on the sitting, his face was haggard, his description was withered, and his eye sockets were deep. "It's a bad move!" he slowly closed his eyes and sighed. "Is it providence that a mistake has occurred in the most unlikely place?" he braced himself up, and called the men who were waiting outside the bedroom. "Go, call the two young ladies. ”
After a while, Li Yu'an and Li Yihuan came to Li Mu's bedroom.
"Dad!" "City Lord!" Li Yu'an and Li Yihuan were frightened when they saw Li Mu like this, and almost knelt down.
Li Yu'an threw herself into Li Mu's arms, hugged him tightly, and cried: "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Li Mu locked himself in his bedroom for many days. Now that he saw his daughter, his heart, which had almost stopped beating, was rejuvenated, and his face became rosy.
"Daddy is fine, don't worry. Li Mu touched her daughter's long silky hair, stroked her back, and comforted her.
Li Yu'an just cried, crying so much that his voice was hoarse: "Dad, they said that you will be arrested in the imperial capital soon, and you will be imprisoned, or even killed!"
Li Mu smiled hard at Li Yu'an, pretending to be light-hearted: "It's okay, I just went to Beijing to deal with some chores, and I will be back in a few days." ”
"There are red-robed guards outside the mansion, Dad, you still lie to me!" Li Yu'an choked up, and his small fist pounded Li Mu's thin body.
"Well, Daddy will be fine. Li Mu, who has always been resourceful, didn't know what to say at this time, so he could only comfort her weakly.
Li Yu'an choked in Li Mu's arms, and Li Yihuan also stood aside, looking at Li Mu sadly.
Li Mu opened his arms slightly to Li Yihuan, and he gently hugged the girl and held her in his arms.
"I've always treated you like my own daughter, and I think you can feel it. Li Mu gently touched Li Yihuan's head.
"Yes, I know. Li Yihuan's emotions that he had been holding on to finally collapsed, and he cried out with a "wow": "Woo woo, city lord, you will be fine!"
Li Mu smiled: "No, don't worry!
"Daddy......" Li Yihuan blushed shyly, and her tears were contained.
When the two daughters calmed down, Li Mu solemnly explained to them: "I went to the imperial capital this time, and they will definitely send people to monitor the City Lord's Mansion." If my expectations are correct, in a few days, Xu Ming and Chu Feng should come to the mansion to find you, and then you can follow them, go through the dark passage, don't come to the imperial capital, run as far as you want!"
"Dad!" the second daughter protested loudly, "No, we will accompany you to the imperial capital." ”
"Obedient!" Li Mu suddenly looked solemn, regained his former majesty, and he called the people outside the bedroom: "Come on, send the two young ladies back to the room!"
"No, Dad, no!"
Li Mu slowly closed his eyes, unable to bear to look at the two daughters who were tearful and reluctant. Two lines of tears, slowly, fell from his closed eyes.
