Chapter 242, the past is unknown
As soon as Bai Mei appeared, Long Xiang immediately noticed it, but for some reason, he didn't make any movements, but just glanced in that direction, and then as if he had lost interest, the whole person was sick, and he walked in the square without strength.
Li Mu and Xie Chengxuan also followed, seeing Long Xiang like this, he was also a little puzzled in his heart, Xie Chengxuan walked over and asked softly: "Old man, what's wrong, have you found anything?" β
Long Xiang glanced back at Xie Chengxuan, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly lost motivation, and I don't know why, maybe I'm old?"
Xie Chengxuan looked at him, with that expression, as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person.
Long Xiang was a little speechless and said, "Old man, I always feel that your eyes are a little rude. β
Xie Chengxuan tilted his head and said, "Talking about business, how to deal with it over there?"
As he spoke, his eyes pointed at Li Mu, who was looking at his side at this time, and his expression was a little wrong.
Long Xiang's eyes rolled, and after thinking for a while, Chengxuan came over with reconciliation, and Li Mu looked at the two of them, waiting for Long Xiang's opening. But the key is that Long Xiang doesn't know what to say now, at this time he doesn't want to tell Li Mu the truth, that will directly lead to Li Mu and his own life.
Li Mu looked at them, "What, haven't you discussed what to say?" There was nature in his eyes, but he saw Long Xiang and Xie Chengxuan's expressions dodging.
After squeezing and sighing, Long Xiang said, "Li Mu, I'll ask you again now, are you sure you want to know the truth?"
At this moment, Long Xiang's face became heavy, Li Mu felt that it seemed that he hadn't seen Long Xiang's face for a long, long time, and he didn't know how long it had been, could it be that this thing was really true?
Li Mu squinted slightly, thought about it, glanced at Long Xiang obliquely, and finally, he nodded.
Long Xiang waved his hand and asked Xie Chengxuan to solve Xiao Wu and talk to Li Mu himself.
Xie Chengxuan nodded and went by himself.
After coughing a few times, Long Xiang beckoned and asked Li Mu to come closer. When Li Mu got closer, Long Xiang lowered his head slightly and said, "Li Mu, let me remind you first, no matter what you hear later, you must not be angry, and you must not leave immediately." You promise me first, and I'll tell you the truth. β
Li Mu tilted his head to look at Long Xiang, then raised his head and looked at the sky, Long Xiang was so repeated, things would definitely not be a good thing, and he held his chin, "Say it, I promise you." β
Long Xiang grinned, cleared his throat, and said: "This matter, I have to talk about it a long time ago, I thought about it, it must have been a hundred or ten years, and the time may be longer, but it will definitely not be lower than this time, at that time, you were still busy fighting in Shushan, and at that time, Gu Jian was fighting to the death with the Kraken, do you still remember that time?"
Li Mu's eyes were raised, and he looked at them slightly, trying to remember. After thinking for a while, he finally nodded and said, "You evoke bad memories for me, but I do remember that time, Changsheng and I almost died at the hands of my own brother. β
Long Xiang smiled and said, "That's just you, not him." β
Smiling helplessly, Li Mu nodded, "Yes, you're right." β
Long Xiang continued: "Then do you remember when you went to Nanban?"
"Go to Nanban.... If you don't say it, I've almost forgotten that time, the second worst injury I've ever suffered in my life was there, and the first time, you know who did it. What are you trying to say by asking me this?"
Long Xiang raised his hand and said, "Li Mu, don't worry, you worked hard to recall, how did you get injured in the first place?"
Li Mu closed his eyes, the original scene passed through his eyes one by one, he may not remember many details, but he still remembered most of them, he and Li Changsheng were sent to Nanban at the beginning, it is said that he thought that there might be an abnormal movement in Nanban at that time, and there would be an attack on Shushan, so someone needed to determine the truth or falsehood, and he and Li Changsheng became the operators of that time, everything was smooth in front, almost no major resistance was encountered, and their actions were quite hidden, except for their own initiative, they were not discovered until they approached Nanyue Cityγ
Li Mu still remembered that night, the rain was so heavy that he couldn't see the road in front of him clearly, and the time given in the door was that the information had to be transmitted back before dawn the next day in order to make deployments, so he and Li Changsheng didn't care at all at that time, and braved the heavy rain to sneak into Nanyue City.
On a rainy night, no one could be seen on the streets of Nanyue City, so cold that people wondered if they had arrived in a ghost town, but the lights of the houses on both sides of the street were bright, and Li Changsheng's many urgings also made Li Mu have to let down his guard and concentrate on completing the tasks he had assigned.
Li Mu still remembered that when they walked to the center of the city and were discovered, tens of thousands of soldiers in Nanyue City surrounded him and Li Changsheng, like an iron bucket, but with the heart to complete the task, and Li Mu's heart was extremely arrogant, it was to let Li Changsheng complete the task and stay alone to block these soldiers, Li Changsheng seemed to know that Li Mu would do this, and he didn't say too much, but thought for a moment and turned his head away.
In fact, Li Mu doubted why those people didn't care about Li Changsheng, but let him leave, and the answer he gave himself at that time was that Nanyue wanted to break them one by one, so he let Li Changsheng leave, and the facts proved that his thoughts were also right at that time, Li Changsheng was covered in bruises when he came back later, if it wasn't for Shi Zhu inviting a ghost doctor, Li Changsheng wouldn't have survived back then. Am you thinking wrong?
He looked at Long Xiang, but he didn't want Long Xiang to look at him with a smile, " Li Mu, I still remember back then, everything was not too coincidental, everything came together, if it wasn't for Shi Zhu's death, was Shushan broken back then, was it after the ghost doctor came, after he healed Li Changsheng, he stayed in Shushan for a few days, as soon as he left, did the Nanban attack in a big way, and the sword formation that you relied on in Shushan was destroyed for some reason, and the Xuanyuan Sword hidden in the lock demon tower of Shushan was also missing at that time?"
Li Mu did not speak, but recalled the year carefully.
Long Xiang continued: "Was it because of this incident back then, Beishan almost killed you all, if it weren't for Shi Zhu kneeling in front of the Lock Demon Tower for three days and three nights, Beishan gave him a chance, but since then, you have lived like walking on thin ice, being careful everywhere, until today." β
Still speechless, Li Mu was waiting for Long Xiang's next words.
Long Xiang was about to say something, but Xie Chengxuan came back and said with a smile: "Come with me first, there are other things, after you deal with them, you can talk to him slowly." β
The two glanced at Xie Chengxuan and thought about it, and finally Li Mu let out a breath and nodded, and when Long Xiang saw this, he didn't speak, but followed.
