"Did Li Mu advance from the Master Realm to the Great Master Realm in less than two months?"
Wang Chen was dumbfounded by his own speculation.
"From the Master Realm to the Great Master Realm in two months?"
Wang Chen also knew that his speculation was absurd, nonsensical, and unbelievable.
But for some reason, deep in his heart, he just felt that his speculation might represent the truth.
Of course, he would not say such speculation out loud.
Because no one would believe it even if he said it.
After carefully weighing his words, Wang Chen tried to suggest, "Your Highness, I have observed Li Mu. He is quite chivalrous. He once stood up for the county people and eradicated the Shennong Faction. If we move him with emotion and reason, maybe he can help us rescue General Tang's wife and children …"
Qin Zhen shook his head and said, "Don't pin your hopes on people and things that you are not sure about. Li Mu is greedy and immoral. The stronger he is, the more harmful he will be. If we pin our hopes on him, he may hurt General Tang's wife and children. So, we'd better find other helpers. I have contacted some friends in Chang 'an City, and they are almost ready."
Wang Chen did not expect that Her Highness's prejudice against Li Mu was so deep. Even now, after hearing that Li Mu had become a Great Master, she still stubbornly rejected him. That was not Her Highness's usual style. Even if the spring hunting in Qin City was a great blow to Her Highness, it should not be like this.
"So, what is the real reason?"
Wang Chen could not figure it out.
Qin Zhen said, "Is there any news from the Musical House?"
"General Tang's widow, Mrs. Qin, his eldest daughter, Tang Tang, and his youngest daughter, Tang Mi, have all been sent to the Musical House. Six days later, they will be auctioned together with that batch of grassland female slaves. The highest bidder will win. Liu Chenglong, the director of the Chang 'an Musical House, has already announced that if anyone wants to participate in this auction, he must first pay a deposit of ten thousand gold ingots and verify his identity." Wang Chen said, "Your Highness, this Liu Chenglong is that person's man.
I'm afraid he has ulterior motives. "" General Tang once guarded the Northern Pass for the empire for many years. His meritorious service was as high as a mountain. But he was killed just because he spoke out. His family was not spared. How innocent are his widows and children … Today, the empire is rotten. "Qin Zhen's eyes showed a hint of anger. He said," Anyway, we must save them. You go to prepare first. We will attend the auction. "
Wang Chen nodded and said, "Okay."
It was indeed a good choice to attend the auction.
Originally, they planned to rescue them before they were sent to the Musical House in Chang 'an City. But they did not expect that there was a super expert in the Great Master Realm among the people who escorted Mrs. Qin and her two daughters, so the previous plan was aborted. Now, they could only attend the auction. If they could save them by spending some money, it would be the least costly way.
Of course, Wang Chen vaguely felt that things might not be so simple.
…
…
Just a street away from Princess Qin Zhen's residence, there was a small manor that was heavily guarded.
There were hundreds of armored soldiers hiding in it.
These armored soldiers looked different from the Qin people. Most of them were bearded, tall and broad, with high cheekbones and strong limbs. They all carried broad-mouthed broadswords, carried long bows on their backs, and carried quivers with wolf-tooth iron arrows on their waists. Every one of them had a thick layer of callus on their palms, especially on the thumb, index finger, and middle finger. The thick yellow callus was like a layer of dead skin.
Anyone could tell from his attire that he was definitely someone from the Great Prairie.
Moreover, they were the elite archers on the prairie.
The whole manor was loose on the outside but tight on the inside, and the atmosphere was extremely serious.
In the main hall of the front yard of the prairie, several tall prairie men with strong auras were secretly discussing something.
"At all costs, rescue Qingyan and her female guards. How can the most excellent daughter of the Wolf God fall into the Musical House of the Qin people? It's a disgrace to the Wolf God." The one who spoke was the leader of these grassland men. He was a tower-like man who seemed to be about 2.45 meters tall. His thick and curly long hair was tied into a thick braid behind his head. His voice was like a copper bell.
"But, I heard that there is more than one super expert in the Great Master Realm in the Musical House of the Qin people. If we attack them by force …" Another scarred man, who had two thick braids tied together behind his head, said hesitantly.
"Haha, who said we're going to attack them by force? Can we outsmart them?"
"But we, the prairie men, have more muscles in our brains than brains. In terms of intrigue, we can't beat the Qin people. How can we outsmart them?"
"It's very simple. We can directly pull out our sabers and hack at them. Whoever dares to stop us, we'll chop them to death … How about it? Is it outsmart them?"
"Bah, Tuoba Sanshi, what kind of outsmart you are doing? I think we should sneak in, pull out our sabers and hack at them when the Qin people are not paying attention, and then rescue the Virgin Goddess Qing Yan and her female guards. That's smart."
A group of tall and burly men, after discussing for a long time, could not come up with a solution.
Among these people, the only one who looked normal was a young man in a cotton robe and looked like a scholar. Totally different from these burly men, he looked more like a Qin person. He kept shaking his head as he listened, thinking that the prairie men really had muscles in their brains. If they could rescue people in this way, why did they need to hide here for such a long time?
The tower-like man in the lead also had a headache.
"Military Counselor, you tell us what we should do." He looked at the young man in the cotton robe.
The young man smiled and said, "The Musical House has announced that an auction will be held in six days. Our best way is to get the first prize in the auction and buy the people out. In this way, we can get rid of them without bloodshed, and we can avoid the female guards getting hurt."
"Yeah, why didn't I think of it?"
"If you can think of the Military Counselor's way, then you are the Military Counselor."
"Shut up and listen to the Military Counselor."
The group of burly men quarreled again.
The young man was not surprised. When they all looked at him, he continued, "Now, the only problem is that we have no money. If we want to compete with those muddle-headed nobles who spend a lot of money, we have to find a way to get a lot of money."
"Money?"
"When we came, did we bring money?"
"Yes, but it's not enough to pay a lot."
"Then what should we do?"
"Let's rob."
"Do you want to die? This is the territory of the Qin people. If we rob, won't we be exposed?"
"Then what should we do?"
"Listen to the Military Counselor."
The group of men quarreled and finally cast their eyes on the young man.
This young Military Counselor was quite prestigious in the hearts of these grassland men.
The Military Counselor looked at the leader and said, "We can only borrow money."
"Borrow money? From whom? "The tower-like leader frowned. In Chang 'an City, he did not know anyone.
The young Military Counselor smiled and said confidently, "I remember that you and the young master of the World Chamber of Commerce have had a drink together, and your friendship is not shallow."
…
…
In the Dafeng Chamber of Commerce.
In the Liu Mansion.
Liu Dedao, the chairman, was now trembling.
Great Master!
That Li Mu turned out to be a Great Master.
He had a feeling that the sky was falling down.
The Dafeng Chamber of Commerce unexpectedly offended a Great Master. What the hell? Even the Heaven Sword Martial Club was defeated. How could the Dafeng Chamber of Commerce be more powerful than the Heaven Sword Martial Club?
It should be noted that the Heaven Sword Martial Club was equivalent to a sect, with numerous masters and highly loyal disciples. What's more, it was backed by the Heaven Sword Sect, which was a real behemoth. However, the Dafeng Chamber of Commerce was just a local consortium. Although it had hired a lot of guards, coaches, and bodyguards, as well as two Grand Masters, it was still a little inadequate in the face of a super expert in the Great Master Realm.
As long as he thought of what happened in the Zhou Mansion, Zhou Dedao could not help sweating.
At that time, he actually clamored to kill a super expert in the Great Grandmaster Realm and released all kinds of ruthless words. Now it seemed that he was simply courting death. He completely walked around in front of the King of Hell and didn't know it.
"What an unfilial son! How could he provoke such a terrible enemy? No, I have to find a way to apologize to Li Mu."
Zhou Dedao had already given up.
Businessmen always valued peace. When encountering someone stronger than them, they would give in much faster than martial artists.
Just then, a maid ran in breathlessly and said, "Master, Master, Madam asked you to go back to the backyard. Young Master … Young Master has gone mad."
"What?"
Zhou Dedao's expression changed dramatically.
He hurried to the backyard. From afar, he heard a heart-wrenching howl like a pig being slaughtered.
"Ah, I can't take it anymore. It hurts, it hurts so much … Mom, mom, go get a doctor … I'm going to die …" Zhou Yu was like a madman. His hair was disheveled as he struggled and wailed in the room. His entire body was covered in scratches. Even though he was tied to the bed, he still struggled with all his might.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Dedao asked.
Before his voice faded away, Madame Zhou had already rushed over while sobbing, "Lord, you have to save Yu 'er ah. He is your only son ah. If something happens to him, I don't want to live anymore … …"
Zhou Dedao felt a headache coming on. He said, "What are you crying for? What's going on? What's wrong with Yu?"
"I don't know, either. Two hours ago, he began to feel itchy all over. I asked the doctor to prescribe some medicine, but it didn't work. Then, it became a great pain. Sob, sob, sob, Yu is going crazy …" Madam Liu was a cruel and merciless person in the backyard. But now, she was completely out of her wits. She didn't know what to do when her beloved son became like this.
Zhou Dedao looked at the doctor in the room, who was a famous doctor in Chang 'an. He asked, "What's wrong with my son?"
The doctor shook his head and said, "I'm too old to make a diagnosis. Your son's pulse is normal, his qi and blood are running smoothly, his viscera are in good condition, and there is nothing wrong with his eyelids. Logically speaking, he is not sick. But his behavior … President Liu, I'm afraid your son is not sick, but under some kind of magic. You can think about it carefully. Did your son offend any magicians recently?"
After that, the doctor took his leave.
It was beyond his ability to deal with.
"Magicians?"
Zhou Dedao was dumbfounded.
He recalled that in the backyard of the mansion today, Li Mu cast the thousands of thunder and lightning magic art, which was as terrifying as a celestial being, as if doomsday was coming … Obviously, Li Mu, who was in the Great Master Realm, was a master of magic arts.
"Li Mu must have done something to my son. He must have."
While thinking about it, Zhou Dedao listened to his son's screams and became more and more flustered. He hurriedly shouted, "Someone, prepare a carriage and gifts. Take Young Master with me to the Pig-Herding Alley … Hurry up!"
He was going to make amends.
