0246. Another Express Delivery
"Three days?"
When Li Mu received the news, he first felt a little strange.
Now that Xiongfeng Martial Arts School has been officially accused of colluding with the remnants of the Tang family, why not just break down the door and storm into the Martial Arts Hall to arrest him, but instead just besieged him instead of attacking him, and even announced with great fanfare that he would launch an attack in three days?
But after thinking about it carefully, I suddenly felt that the second prince who controlled all this situation could be described as sinister in his behavior.
The official announcement that the attack will be launched in three days, outside the Chen Bing Martial Arts Hall, will have no more than two purposes.
One is to disintegrate the morale of everyone in Xiongfeng Martial Arts Hall.
The second is to encircle the area for reinforcements, lure out all those who have an old relationship with the Zhenguo General Tang Chong, catch them all in one fell swoop, and uproot them all.
As Li Mu thought about it, he felt more and more that there might be some relationship between Xiongfeng Martial Arts Hall and the descendants of Zhenguo General Tang Chong. It was even possible that Mrs. Tang and the two women were indeed hiding in Xiongfeng Martial Arts Hall. of.
Zheng Cunjian had previously reported that on the night of Jiaofangsi, Feng Junzi Wang Chen and His Highness behind him did not finally lead Mrs. Tang and others out of Chang'an City as they wished. Later, there was no chance. On that day, under the strict orders of the second prince, the city was searched all over the city, and all the ghosts, ghosts and snake gods hidden in the city were dug up. However, they were not found. Then they must be hidden somewhere in the city. The Xiongfeng Martial Arts School also possible.
If this is really the case, then the fate of Mrs. Tang and her two daughters is really worrying.
Falling into the hands of the second prince again would be more terrifying than death.
As for those enthusiastic people who care about the descendants of General Tang, if they can't bear it and go to rescue them, they are afraid that they will all die like moths flying into the flame.
What grudge does the second prince have against General Tang Chong?
Li Mu didn't know.
But for a prince of the empire to kill several orphans and widows, even if they were fishing with bait, this method was too much in Li Mu's opinion.
"Do you want to take action, Master?" Zheng Cunjian asked.
Li Mu hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "I have no such plan for the time being. I have other things to do."
Zheng Cunjian breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really worried that Li Mu would interfere in this matter in a fit of passion.
Because judging from the information obtained from some sources, this time, the second prince surrounded the area for reinforcements and dispatched many royal ministers. Heavenly beings such as the Nether Sect Master are not the strongest among them. They obviously have very big plans. Even Li Mu He has a remarkable record as a Heaven-Slaying Man, but if he gets involved in this matter, he may be in danger.
The political whirlpool has always been the most terrifying.
Even if you are a heavenly being, if you are involved in such a whirlpool, you may lose all your bones and dregs.
There are too many such precedents.
"By the way, can you help me ask about that matter?" Li Mu said.
Zheng Cunjian lowered his eyebrows and said with a look of shame on his face: "The Lord Prefect said that if you want to know, go and ask him personally." Before, Li Mu asked Zheng Cunjian to ask the scumbag prefect on his behalf, hoping to use the [Zhentianjian] to find out. After finding out the identity of the heavenly being behind the golden fingerprint, Zheng Cunjian asked Li Gang tactfully.
But Li Gang's answer was simple and straightforward.
Li Mu must visit him in person before there is any possibility of discussion.
Ask him in person?
Li Mu subconsciously rubbed his temples.
What does this mean, scumbag prefect?
Do you want to let yourself bow to him?
Or is it that he finally wanted to see his son, but he used this method very arrogantly?
"Hehe... just go."
Li Mu grinned.
At the beginning, it was not him who severed the father-son relationship with him with three high-fives, but Li Mu from that world. Therefore, Li Mu himself did not actually have a mental disorder. It happened that he also went to see this scumbag prefect. Since that day, scumbag Magistrate The strength shown by the male prefect when he was talking to [red-haired murderer] Zhang Bulao... Well, it would be nice to go see this low-key but amazingly powerful scumbag.
Li Mu was actually a little curious about this scumbag prefect.
While he was talking, suddenly, a thunderous voice came from outside the courtyard of the humble house.
"I, Commander Meng Wu of the Chifeng Camp, and Li Mu, the magistrate of Taibai County, have come out to give me a reply."
The sound can be transmitted through the shabby house and courtyard, and the strength is at least in the innate realm.
Li Mu glanced at Zheng Cunjian.
Zheng Cunjian said knowingly: "Chifeng Camp is one of the three main battle armies outside Chang'an City, the strongest combat force in Chang'an Prefecture, and this Zuo General Meng Wu was born in the Qin City Forbidden Army and came to Chang'an City just a year ago. , took over the Chifeng Camp. He was an unruly man. It is said that he had a background in Qincheng, the imperial capital. Recently, he and the second prince have been very close. These days, the patrols in Chang'an City that obey the orders of the second prince are all from the Chifeng Camp. Composed of masters and elite sergeants.”
After listening, Li Mu looked thoughtful.
The second prince's people.
This is very interesting.
"You go back first." He stood up.
Zheng Cunjian left through the side door.
Li Mu arrived outside the courtyard of the humble house.
Outside the gate, in the pig driving alley, a unicorn Pegasus with heavy silver armor stood quietly. On its back was a young general with silver armor and a silver spear. He had an upright face, sharp eyes, a white cloak, and a spear hanging on the left side. The legs are heavily armored, and the whole body is as pure as a pile of snow, making it look extremely good.
No need to guess, this is Meng Wu, the commander of Chifeng Camp.
Behind Meng Wu in silver armor and white robes, there are twelve personal guards with fierce auras. They are all at the peak level of a grandmaster. They are all wearing red and black flames and bright light armor, black cloaks, a thousand-gold horse under their crotch, and a hundred-refined weight around their waists. Knife, with a cold expression and murderous intent.
"Are you Li Mu?" Meng Wu rode on a white unicorn beast Pegasus, overlooking Li Mu from a high position.
Chifeng Battalion is the main station of the Chang'an Mansion. The commander's rank is the second-grade official rank and the ninth-grade county magistrate. In front of him, he is indeed as small as a sesame seed.
Li Mu didn't mind his tone. He nodded and said, "It's me. What can General Meng give me?"
"I have received information that the little white demon fox among the remnants of the Qingquan Chamber of Commerce is hiding in your courtyard. Mr. Li, please open the courtyard formation. I will go in and search." Meng Wu's white horse and silver helmet, his expression Arrogant and expressionless, he said: "Please also ask Li Zhixian to cooperate."
A smile appeared on Li Mu's face.
Want to enter the shabby courtyard?
This is a good reason.
He said: "Cooperate, cooperate, we must cooperate. General, there is no need to search. The little white fox is indeed in this courtyard."
Meng Wu was startled.
Admit it so easily?
It's different from the picture I imagined before.
"In that case, Mr. Li, please hand over this demon fox." A trace of contempt appeared on his face.
According to legend, Madman Li was unscrupulous and fearless, but now it seems that he is actually just a bully who fears the strong. As soon as he saw the appearance of the Chifeng Battalion of the main battle corps, he suddenly softened and asked him to prepare in advance. There is no room for any good words to be said.
It seems that the name is not worthy of the name.
"Hand it over? Why hand it over?" Li Mu looked stunned: "Did I say I would hand it over?"
Meng Wu was stunned again, then an angry look appeared on his face: "Li Mu, what do you mean? Are you teasing me?"
Li Mu clapped his hands and laughed: "I'm just teasing you, so what?" As he said that, his expression turned cold and he said: "Okay, I don't have time to guess riddles with you anymore. Let's put it this way, I don't care. Who asked you to come? No matter what your purpose is, I am very busy and annoyed right now. If you don’t have the strength of the Heavenly Realm, you don’t want me to die here.”
"You...you are looking for death!"
Meng Wu was furious and spoke with gritted teeth. He raised his leg and took off his silver spear. The tip of the spear pointed directly at Li Mu's eyebrows with murderous intent.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The twenty personal guards behind him, all of whom were at the peak of their master's cultivation, all shouted loudly and unsheathed their heavy swords. The cold wind blades and the iron-blooded evil energy filled the air from the gaps in their armors, like tangible mist. , permeating the entire pig-driving alley.
Murderous intent permeated the air.
It seemed that the bloody killing was about to begin in the next moment.
Li Mu stood there, curling his lips and saying nothing.
For a moment, Meng Wu almost stabbed him with his spear.
However, the last trace of reason still allowed him to restrain himself.
Because he knew that he was no match for Li Mu.
Looking at the short-haired young man in front of him who was sneering and unprepared, with flaws all over his body but making him feel extremely fearful, Meng Wu now began to believe that this person was indeed the same as the one in the legend. An unscrupulous lunatic.
A madman with the ability to kill the most powerful person in the Heavenly Realm.
"Li Mu, do you know that colluding with the demon clan is a serious crime of confiscating the family and annihilating the clan?" Meng Wu suppressed the anger in his heart, thought about the order of the second prince before coming, and made plans to take action, saying: "I will give you a chance. Chances are, since you are an imperial official, I don’t want to pursue it too much. As long as you hand over the little demon fox, this matter will be over with me.”
Li Mu shook his head.
"You said that you are also the commander-in-chief of an army and will be brave for the soldiers, but what about your courage? You can only hold back the anger in your heart, hold your nose and say what others say, just to complete the script taught to you by others, you said , is it interesting? If I were you and stabbed you directly, do you still have the determination of a strong martial artist in your heart? "
Meng Wu was really furious.
"The record of killing heavenly beings is not your capital to be unscrupulous in front of the Chifeng Battalion army. As long as I give the order, Chifeng Battalion's Star-breaking Crossbow can instantly raze this place to the ground." He could hardly bear it anymore. Living.
Li Mu looked up and down Meng Wu's silver armor, then looked at the silver gun in his hand, and said with a smile: "Hey, you are a courier delivery person, you are so arrogant, okay, I will give you a chance to gather your army. You might as well come together to deliver the express."
Meng Wu didn't know what the words "courier" and "delivery" meant, but at this time, he was completely irritated by Li Mu's demeanor and tone.
"kill."
Out of anger, he stabbed directly.
…
…
After one stick of incense.
Li Mu appeared at the gate of the prefect's Yamen.
Notification, request for meeting, official procedures.
a while.
"Master Li, please come back. The master of the palace has guests to entertain today and has no time to see you. Please come back another day." The master of the Yamen came out and said this, turned around and went back.
Li Mu rubbed his temples.
Dog officer.
Show off your power?
Play this trick with me?
He turned and left.
After all, you are asking for help, and it will definitely not work if you ask for help, so you will have to come again next time.
This is not a rush.
No big deal, just come a few more times.
He turned and left.
When they returned to Zhuzhu Lane, Meng Wu from Chifeng Camp and his twenty personal guards had disappeared.
"Well, it seems that they have all woken up and left." Li Mu nodded, thinking about the various resources and treasures found on Meng Wu after knocking them out, and Li Mu felt very happy.
"Including what I collected from Zhang Bulao before, it's almost enough. Let's go back and refine the Samsara Sword again... Probably, some people can't bear it any longer and will soon have to use the Samsara Sword again. .”
