Chapter Ninety-Four: Arrive in Jeonju and cast a net to fish
Li Mu transferred to the two horses, passed the city all the way, stayed in the mountains and fields at night, swept the sky and the ground, and rushed to Quanzhou alone in accordance with the direction guided on the map.
This kind of high-intensity continuous rush will cause a lot of burden on the body for ordinary people or people with a little martial arts, but after more than ten days in a row, he did not feel a trace of fatigue after traveling thousands of miles.
After traveling thousands of miles, eating and sleeping all the way, the high walls of Quanzhou City are finally faintly in sight.
Quanzhou City is the seat of the thirteen states of Daqi, located in the southeast of Daqi, with a wide area of thousands of miles, nearly 100 million people, developed shipping, and is an important commercial place in Daqi.
The people of Quanzhou are open, and there are many brave people, the Xue family and the Jin family of Quanzhou are standing side by side, and the royal family of Daqi can only acquiesce to this place, and even issue an order to appease, which shows the authority of the two families on the land of Quanzhou.
After Li Mu came to the outside of the city, he still released the horses back into the mountains and forests, and then walked into the city on foot. The whole state is not like Yedu, and he has to queue up to check before he is allowed to enter the city, Li Mu's figure blended into the crowd and slowly walked into the city, without attracting anyone's attention.
The size of this city is not inferior to Yedu in any way, and there are people coming and going, the shouting and shouting are endless, the streets are wide, the crowd is like water, and it is even more prosperous than Yedu.
After Li Mu entered the city, he did not choose to look for Xue Chucai as soon as possible, the January period had not yet arrived, and he wanted to focus on investigating the situation of the Jin family and the Xue family in the past few days.
When it comes to the people who are most familiar with a certain city, it is not the prefect of the city who sits in the high hall, but the people who live at the lowest level of the city, more precisely, those thieves and gangsters. This kind of person is idle all day, and he should know the most about the news of the city where he lives.
After Li Mu entered the city, he randomly found a very luxurious-looking inn, deliberately pretended to be very rich, took out a piece of silver from his body to pay the bill, and after a big meal, he walked towards the uninhabited alley.
Someone in this inn saw Li Mu's face and looked like a dusty man, so he ran to inform the local gang members and went to rob him. Li Mu didn't go far, and after entering a quiet alley, he leaned against the wall and closed his eyes and waited for his goal to arrive.
The efficiency of these people is really amazing, and in just a few dozen breaths, more than a dozen people gathered, divided into two directions, and surrounded Li Mu in the middle.
Li Mu lazily opened his eyes, looked at a fierce-looking man walking in front of him and said, "You guys are not slow, you didn't let me wait for a long time, take me to see your helper." ”
Seeing that he didn't take his group seriously at all, and said a few words, the leading man couldn't help but be shocked and angry, and rushed towards Li Mu with a shout, and said loudly: "Don't leave your hand, kill him for me!"
A group of little minions rushed over at the order, each brandishing different weapons, seeing that the posture really wanted to beat Li Mu to death-
Li Mu frowned, he didn't expect that the whole state was so chaotic, and the robbery was just enough, and it was so casual that it was about to hurt people's lives, was it because this place was controlled by the two clans and the government was powerless?
He didn't have time to think about it, and these hooligans rushed towards him with a shout, and there was the big man who was the leader, who was extremely ferocious, and he didn't know how many confessions he had accumulated in his hands.
With Li Mu's strength, naturally there is no need to entangle with them, and he is also extremely heavy, he didn't leave a chance for these people at all, and when he moved, he killed all the people who rushed towards him, leaving only a young man who stood not far away with this group of people and did not rush towards him with this group of people.
The boy looked fifteen or sixteen years old, and was looking at him with a look of horror on his face. Around Li Mu's body, everyone who was very arrogant just now had already fallen to the ground, all bleeding, and they were shocked by Li Mu's casual blow, and they died.
Li Mu walked up to the young man, lifted his soft body to the ground with one hand, and threatened: "Take me to your boss, otherwise I will kill you immediately." ”
The young man had just joined this group of bastards, who had ever seen such a scene, that Fan Laosan, who was usually afraid of himself, was killed before he could even catch a move from this young man, he was so frightened that his legs became weak, and he almost peed his pants. At this moment, Li Mu was lifted up like a chicken, his heart was full of fear, and he quickly nodded yes.
Li Mu let him go, and the young man knew that he couldn't run away at all, so he walked in front with trepidation and led the way for Li Mu.
The young man took Li Mu to turn left and right, through the streets and alleys, walked not long ago, came to a tall attic, Li Mu looked up at this pavilion, on the book Dengxian Lou a few big characters, from time to time in the building there are pink silk scarves shaking, Yingge Manyu, ushered in a large number of people, but it is a green building.
After the young man walked downstairs, he turned his head to look at Li Mu, with a pleading look on his face, and then knelt on the ground, and said: "This hero forgives his sins, the villain doesn't dare to lead the way anymore, I only know that the eldest brother of Fan Laosan is the owner of this Dengxian Tower, please spare my life, there are old and small ...... villains."
Li Mu looked at him with some tears and laughter, and interrupted: "You fifteen or sixteen-year-old child is so small, get out, don't do evil in the future." After saying that, he took out a piece of silver and threw it to him. When the young man saw that there were dozens of taels of silver in his hands, his eyes couldn't help but shine. After kowtowing to Li Mu, he hurriedly ran back to the original road-
Li Mu is not afraid that he will lie, but in Qinglou, a place where the three sects and nine streams gather, it is easier to find out the news. He looked at this green building, which was very lively even during the day, and his face showed a smile on his face, and then walked away.
After rushing for days, he inevitably had some dust on his body, so he looked quite embarrassed, and there were shabby stains on his black clothes, and his hair was not scattered, but he didn't look like a handsome boy.
When the two guards at the door of the Qinglou saw him like this, they all looked at him with some contempt, and one of them standing on the left threatened him: "Get out of the way, this is not the place for you to stay." ”
Li Mu made an annoyed look on his face, took out a silver ingot from his arms, smashed it on this person, and smashed him until his head was bleeding, and then snorted: "Show this young master clearly, young master Ben needs to ask for food? Young master, I'm here to be happy, don't you want your old bustard to come out?"
The man was being smashed in the eye by his silver, and he was crying out in pain, attracting the attention of many people. A shrill voice sounded from this building: "Who dares to come to my Immortal Tower to make trouble?
Li Mu heard a sound of footsteps, and then more than a dozen people poured out from the several side doors of this Dengxian Tower, all holding bright weapons in their hands, and surrounded him in the middle. A half-aged coated in thick fat powder twisted her waist and walked out from behind angrily.
The woman first saw the janitor lying on the ground, his head covered in blood and pain, with an angry expression on his face; then she saw a large piece of silver weighing dozens of taels on the side, and the expression on her face was slightly dark; then she saw Li Mu, who was surrounded by the crowd, but there was no panic, and she was still sneering.
Although the black clothes on Li Mu's body are quite damaged, it can still be seen that his workmanship is fine, and Li Mu has a handsome face and an extraordinary bearing, he definitely doesn't look like the kind of poor ghost who deliberately makes trouble, but like a gentleman who doesn't know the height of the sky.
The look on the old bustard's face changed rapidly, from anger to strangeness, from strange to novelty, novelty to contempt, contempt to enthusiasm, in an instant, several looks flashed from her eyes, and then the old woman twisted her waist and walked in front of Li Mu, and said delicately: "Why did this guest shoot so hard, it doesn't matter if you beat this porter to death, it's not good to dirty your hands." ”
Li Mu tilted his chin, took out a piece of silver weighing dozens of taels from his arms, stuffed it into the old bustard's open chest, and said arrogantly: "This dog dares to slander Young Master Ben for asking for food, Young Master Ben naturally wants to teach him some lessons, can't I teach him a lesson?"
The old bustard threw a wink at Li Mu, took out the silver on his chest and put it into his purse quietly, and then clapped his hands and said: "The lesson of the son is that it is this dog who does not know the height of the sky, and he should be beaten!"
Li Mu snorted lightly and said, "Take me in, call the most popular and beautiful girl here to accompany me, the price doesn't matter!"
The old bustard waved the silk scarf in her hand, stepped forward to hold Li Mu's arm, but he opened it mercilessly, a trace of imperceptible haze flashed in her eyes, and then she continued to laugh and lead the way in front of Li Mu. Before entering the door, she turned her head and said in a cold tone: "Drag that waste away and dismiss him, and that piece of silver will be regarded as the settling-in fee that this son will reward him." ”
Li Mu didn't pause at all, still pretending to be arrogant, and followed the old bustard into the Dengxian Tower.
After the old bustard took Li Mu into a delicately decorated inner room with incense wafting, he said to him: "Wait a minute, this son, I will go and invite the most beautiful girl like smoke to accompany you." ”
Li Mu looked at the floor with his eyes and urged: "Hurry up, young master, I came all the way to see you, an old thing." ”
The old bustard went with a smile, and when she walked outside the door, she muttered fiercely: "I don't know the earth buns that are high in the sky, and the old lady will kill you in a while!"
It was quite noisy in the Qinglou, but Li Mu heard her words clearly, he squinted his eyes and smiled, knowing that the tea was poisonous, but he still brought it up and drank it directly.
The tip of Li Mu's nose moved slightly, and then he smiled dumbly, there is actually a big problem with the incense in this room, and I don't know how many people have quietly "ascended to the immortal" in this Dengxian Tower?
Li Mu didn't wait long, and after a cup of tea, the old bustard finally led a girl and came quickly.
Before anyone arrived, a burst of aroma came to the nose.
Li Mu sneezed heavily.
