Li Mu's heart moved.
It’s best not to let too many other people know about this secret room.
So he followed the stairs and walked out on his own initiative.
"Amitabha, dear donors, this young monk is polite."
He put one hand on his chest, walked down the stairs step by step, and walked out of the secret room.
"who?"
"Stop!"
"Stand where you are and don't move."
Rows of swords and guns were instantly aimed at Li Mu. A dozen soldiers with crossbows in their hands also aimed their crossbows at Li Mu, waiting for the order from their superiors to suddenly walk out of the secret room. The little monk shoots into a hornet's nest.
"Who are you?" A middle-aged man wearing an eighth-grade martial arts armor, who should be the leader, stared at Li Mu and said with a stern look.
Li Mu said: "Can't you see it? I am a monk."
"Monk?" The middle-aged man sneered: "Why did the monk appear in this manor in the middle of the night? Were Ma San and others killed by you?"
"No, there was a woman in white who killed people here. The young monk was just passing by." Li Muyong said the Buddha's name with a look of great regret on his face: "Actually, the young monk came here to save them. It’s a pity that it was a step too late and didn’t catch up.”
Since the woman in white didn't ask him to keep it secret before she left, she presumably had no fear of government investigation. Therefore, Li Mu didn't have the Virgin to carry it for the woman in white, but he didn't hide the purpose of coming to this villa either.
Wow, monks really don’t lie.
I did it.
Li Mu praised himself in his heart.
The middle-aged man was stunned.
He originally thought that the young monk would deny it. After all, according to the imperial law, killing was a serious crime. Unexpectedly, the young monk did not follow common sense. Although he denied that he killed the person, he said that he was also here to kill someone. , which made the middle-aged man’s mind unable to turn around for a moment.
"Hmph, it was you who killed the person... Monks did not show mercy and actually killed people. It is really a heinous crime." The middle-aged man came back to his senses and snorted coldly: "I, Song Yi, the mayor of Ping'an Town, Young monk, do you want to be captured without mercy, or do you want me to order the use of force to capture you?"
Ah?
Li Mu was stunned.
Hey, hey, hey, did you listen to me carefully? I already told you that I didn’t kill the person. How come it’s true?
Are all current imperial officials so careless?
"So, you are the mayor of Ping'an Town?" Li Mu couldn't help but look at the middle-aged mayor for a while.
Granny Cai said that Mayor Song only came here in the past year or two, and it was only after Mayor Song came that the gang of Popi Masan and others slowly became prosperous, and the townspeople all They talked behind his back that the reason Ma San could be so arrogant was because Mayor Song supported him.
If this is really the case, then Mayor Song should know the existence of the secret room and even know what is in the secret room.
If Li Mu wants to find out the history and whereabouts of the spacecraft, he should probably make a fuss about Mayor Song.
He was thinking in his mind, but he didn't show it at all on his face, so as not to offend the enemy. Instead, he looked like he couldn't agree and said: "It turns out that Mayor Song is in front of him. This makes it even better. Ma San and others are doing harm to the village. Those who seek wealth and kill people, and disregard people's lives are unforgivable sins. Our Buddha is so merciful that even if a young monk saves them, it is a matter of smooth nature, so why should they be guilty?"
Several soldiers and guards on one side were stunned and couldn't listen any more.
The conversation between these two people was completely different from each other. Are they all talking about themselves?
Moreover, I heard that this little monk was even more arrogant than the mayor.
"Hmph, you have such a eloquent tongue. You can say whatever you want. The law of the empire is that the murderer must die... Come here, handcuff him." Song Yi, the middle-aged mayor, waved his hand and said with a cold expression. .
He had some transactions with Ma San that were not visible to the public, so he was anxious and was not prepared to distinguish these with the young monk. He wanted to catch them first.
The guard behind him was holding fine steel and fine iron shackles, and he was about to put them on Li Mu's neck.
"Haha, Mr. Song, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch me today." Li Mu didn't hide away, letting him put the steel chain shackles around his neck, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid you can't afford the consequences. .”
"Haha, it's a joke. I caught a murderer who killed nearly a hundred people. I was enforcing the law. What consequences will I not bear? You, a monk, still dare to threaten me. You really don't even want to die. I don't know why. Write." Mayor Song Yi said with a sarcastic expression.
He didn't notice that Li Mu's self-identification had changed from monk to me.
Li Mu just smiled and said nothing.
At this moment, footsteps were heard in the distance, and then a soldier who looked like a soldier walked in quickly and whispered something in Song Yi's ear.
Song Yi's expression immediately changed.
He didn't care about arresting Li Mu, but immediately turned around and walked out of the lobby.
Li Mu knew it, didn't say anything, and waited patiently.
After a while, I saw the mayor, who had been speaking righteously before, slowly coming back with a fawning look, leading a vermillion-colored eight-carriage sedan. When he arrived in the hall, he looked like... Like a pug wagging its tail in front of its owner.
"I didn't expect Mr. Zheng to come to Ping'an Town. It really makes our small place shine." Song Yi said loudly.
"Well, Mayor Sun is interested." Zheng Cunjian's voice came from the eight sedan chairs.
Li Mu laughed happily.
The name "Black-hearted Scholar" is really well-known among officials at all levels in Chang'an Mansion. This time, he has brought this guy with him all the time. It is considered that he has done the right thing. At least all these miscellaneous things have been dealt with. This black-hearted guy can handle it, saving a lot of trouble.
"Mayor Song, Master Luan Lai is a distinguished guest in the prefect's house. Even if the prefect sees him, he must be polite. I wonder why Mayor Song locked up Master Luan Lai?" [ Black-hearted scholar] Zheng Cunjian's voice came from inside the sedan chair.
His leg was broken by Li Mu and has not fully grown yet. He can ride a horse but cannot walk, so he can only come in a sedan chair.
This statement was something Li Mu had discussed with him when they were in the inn.
When Song Yi heard this, cold sweat suddenly flowed down his face.
The prefect's distinguished guest?
No wonder this little monk has such a loud tone, it turns out there is such a relationship.
This time he was really in trouble.
Song Yi looked at Li Mu with great sadness, thinking that you had such a great background, you should have told me earlier, didn't you mean to wait for me to make a mistake?
Li Mu looked up with a smile on his face, and asked, "Even if I told you earlier, would you believe it?"
"Why don't you hurry up and remove the shackles of Master Luanlai?" [Black-hearted Scholar] Zheng Cunjian urged. He was also anxious, fearing that Li Mu would be dissatisfied and his legs would be broken again.
Song Yi did not dare to neglect and stepped forward in person to loosen the shackles of Li Mu.
Li Mu smiled and stepped back, saying, "Sir Song, these shackles are easy to put on, but a little difficult to remove."
Song Yi's face was suffocated, and his heart thumped.
Damn it, why is this little monk so difficult to deal with? He's like an old man in the officialdom.
"Mr. Zheng, this..." Song Yi turned back and looked at the sedan.
The unique and cold voice of [Black-Hearted Scholar] Zheng Cunjian came from the sedan, saying: "Mayor Song, you can do it yourself. If Master Luanlai is not satisfied, you will definitely not be able to serve as an official. As for Others...hehe."
Others, what else?
Of course it's life.
The implication is that it is not certain whether your life can be saved.
Song Yi suddenly felt truly scared.
He did not expect that this little monk's status in the heart of the prefect would reach such an extent. Listening to the tone, even the famous Mr. Zheng was extremely afraid of what kind of real Buddha he had offended.
"This...Master Luanlai, I..." Song Yi turned around again and looked at Li Mu, almost crying. This was such a disaster. He begged: "I have eyesight and don't recognize Taibai Mountain. Master is a monk and is compassionate." , please let me down as a way out, no matter what the master has asked for, I will definitely satisfy you."
Li Mu smiled and said: "Mayor Song, you only need to answer a few questions from me honestly. If the answers satisfy me, I will not pursue you further."
Song Yi nodded like he was pounding garlic.
"Okay, then you come with me." Li Mu turned around and walked towards the secret room under the big chair.
Song Yi felt anxious and trembling, hesitated for a moment, and followed.
In the hall, the torches made a crackling sound, and the soldiers and guards did not dare to speak. Even they had heard of Zheng Cunjian's famous name, [Black-hearted Scholar]. It could stop a child from crying at night. Being with such a person , even across the sedan chair, gave them the urge to turn around and run away.
time flies.
After about one stick of incense.
Li Mu was in front and Song Yi was behind. The two people came out of the secret room.
There was an expression on Song Yi's face, as if he had eaten a dead mouse. Cold sweat could not stop flowing down his forehead. He was stumbling and lost his mind. From his expression, it was impossible to guess what Li Mu had said to him.
Li Mu, on the other hand, looked thoughtful.
"Mr. Zheng." Li Mu said, "I have some things stored in the secret room below. You and Master Song can work out a way together and help me send them to Taibai County. You have to act fast and keep things secret. No Anything goes wrong, do you understand?”
"Master Luanlai, please rest assured." Zheng Cunjian spoke quickly and assured: "As long as it is the master's belongings, even a speck of dust will not be missed. It will be completely delivered to Taibai County within three days. Go." Generally speaking, what can be found in the secret room is nothing more than gold and silver treasures that these gangsters have plundered and stored.
Li Mu nodded.
"Let Mr. Song handle the rest of the matters here."
He turned and walked outside.
Zheng Cunjian did not dare to neglect, and immediately asked the bearers to carry the sedan and followed.
Seeing this scene, Song Yi's heart trembled again.
What is the background of this master of chaos? He actually allows beings like [Black-hearted Scholar] to follow him like a servant and obey his orders. Why have I never heard of this person before?
--------
I was a little tired last night, so after writing a few hundred words in the second chapter, I lay down on the bed, squinted for a while, and asked Mrs. Dao to call me after twenty minutes. As a result, Mrs. Dao felt sorry for her husband, so she didn’t say a word, and Dao Zi fell asleep until I didn’t wake up until seven in the morning... I was really cheating on my husband.
