Tang Chong, the founding general, was a man who had made great contributions to the empire. He was honest and upright, and was known as one of the four military gods of the Qin Empire. I don't know why his family was ruined overnight. Poor wife and daughter, they have to suffer like this. "Bai Xuan said casually, feeling a little sad.
Hearing that, Li Mu felt a little sympathetic.
"I've heard that some treacherous officials and sycophants who were once punished by the founding general have come to Chang 'an to fight for General Tang's wife and daughter to humiliate and humiliate them …" Seeing that Li Mu was interested, Bai Xuan's mother could not help but add a few more words.
As for why she said that?
In her heart, she still felt a little sympathy for the orphan and the widowed mother whom she had never met.
"Doesn't General Tang have any friends who can help him?" Hua Xianghua couldn't help but ask. She was sad, thinking of her own experience. Fortunately, she was selected to join the Holy House.
"I heard that some people tried to rescue him, but they were harmed. Many of General Tang's friends died because of that. Because General Tang offended a big shot, a prince of the empire." Mrs. Bai Xuan said, "Alas, it's really pitiful. He was upright all his life, but in the end, he ended up like this."
Li Mu said, "Since this General Tang is so upright and outspoken, loyal to the empire, and has made great contributions, why does the emperor of the Qin Dynasty want to kill him? Isn't he destroying himself?"
"Well … I don't know. Maybe it's because of the treacherous officials," Bai Xuan said.
"Humph, how can the treacherous officials deceive the real wise emperor? It seems that the emperor is also a fatuous emperor." Li Mu said casually.
Bai Xuan and Hua Xiangrong were startled.
"Young Master, be careful with your words." Bai Xuan hurriedly said.
Li Mu shook his head and smiled, not caring at all.
In his heart, he didn't care about the emperor of this world at all. But he was more curious about the heads of the holy martial arts clans.
Bai Xuan said goodbye and left.
But after a while, she came back with a somewhat unnatural look, and said, "Young Master Li, someone is outside asking to see you."
Li Mu directly said, "I won't see him."
"This …" Bai Xuan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Gongzi, you should speak to me personally. I won't be able to stop you …"
Before his voice died away, a middle-aged warrior in light armor directly rushed in from the outside and said, "Young Master Li Mu, how arrogant you are! I came to visit Song Shang on the order of His Highness …"
Li Mu frowned. "You again?"
Li Mu recognized the middle-aged practitioner. He had met him once at the gate of the Pig-Herding Alley. The middle-aged practitioner had sent him a visiting card, saying that His Highness greatly appreciated Li Mu's talent and talent, so he wanted to recruit Li Mu to serve him. "Recruit my ass!" Li Mu did not take it seriously at that time. To be honest, no one on this planet who could make a quasi-immortal like Li Mu pledge his loyalty to had been born yet.
"Young Master Li Mu, Her Highness recognizes your talent very much …" The middle-aged warrior was not a good persuader. His tone was full of arrogance.
Li Mu directly waved his hand to interrupt him and said, "I'm sorry, I am now an official of the empire, and I don't want to form cliques. Thank you for your Highness's kindness. Please leave." Li Mu directly ordered him to leave.
A trace of anger flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged warrior, and he said, "Young Master Li, you have to think it over. Her Highness is the current second prince."
Three "almost" sounded in the room in an instant.
Hua Xiangrong, Bai Xuan, and the little girl were all shocked.
It was said that the current second prince was very likely to become the future crown prince of the Western Qin Empire.
Li Mu did not take it seriously at all, and said, "I've thought it over very clearly. Please leave." Not to mention the second prince, even if the emperor of the Western Qin Empire came in person, he would also take the same attitude. Now, he did not need to worry so much.
"Well, don't regret it." The middle-aged warrior looked sullen.
If it were someone else who did not know how to appreciate kindness, he would have already taught him a lesson. But Li Mu was a peerless Natural Expert, whose strength was above him, and the title of God of Slaughter also made him a little afraid. After all, this lunatic even dared to kill the son of Lord Zhenxi.
"I give you five breaths. If you still don't get out, I will throw you out." Li Mu took a sip of tea.
"You broke into Hua Xiangrong's boudoir without notice. If it were not for your damn second prince's face, I would have already smashed your head."
The middle-aged warrior was so angry that he laughed and said, "Well, you are really arrogant. You killed the son of Lord Zhenxi, and Lord Zhenxi's people have already arrived in Chang 'an City, ready to catch you. Without the protection of my second prince, at that time, you won't even know how you die. Hey, although you are stubborn now, there will be a time when you beg for mercy … Hey?"
Before he finished his words, the middle-aged warrior only felt dizzy, and the back of his collar was tightened. Then, he was thrown out of the room like a cloud.
"So fast!"
He was shocked.
At the moment of landing, he wanted to adjust his posture and stand steadily, but his feet were weak, and finally, with a bang, he fell in the hall on the first floor of the Holy House. He fell face down, which shocked the people who were drinking and having fun around, and they all looked at him.
The middle-aged man struggled to stand up.
With his strength, such a fall would naturally not hurt him.
And at this time, he sensed slightly and knew that there was actually no abnormality in his body.
But this was what shocked him.
Li Mu did not restrict his internal qi, but threw him casually, and made him fall involuntarily. This strength was a bit horrible, and even much stronger than the rumor. Anyway, he was also a half-step to the Natural Realm, so it was much harder to kill him than to make him lose control of his body and fall inexplicably.
The middle-aged man walked out of the Holy House with a gloomy face.
At the same time, several pleasure seekers who had laughed the loudest just now had a little red between their eyebrows, and then fell down softly, no longer making a sound.
Screams sounded.
On the third floor, Li Mu slightly frowned.
This middle-aged man was cruel and merciless. Just because he was laughed at a few words, he directly killed people secretly. Perhaps the second prince he followed was also not a good person.
"Young Master, just now that man said … you killed the son of Lord Zhenxi?" Bai Xuan asked, trembling.
Because the news was blocked by the government, even Bai Xuan, who was well-informed, did not know it.
Li Mu nodded and said, "That young lord did evil in the military cemetery and slaughtered innocent people. I couldn't stand it, so I killed him." He had nothing to hide.
"What … what should we do?" Bai Xuan suddenly lost her mind.
Killing a member of the royal family was a serious crime.
If she let Li Mu stay here, it was tantamount to covering up for him. At that time, there was a risk of being implicated.
After all, she was a woman. When she heard such news, she was a little flustered.
Li Mu said, "Don't worry. It's been five or six days. Now, I'm still here safe and sound. Lord Zhenxi's power is too long to reach here. If something really happened, he would have done it a few days ago. But the government didn't do anything. It's clear that the government won't investigate this matter."
Bai Xuan was stunned.
Looking at Li Mu's indifferent expression, she suddenly calmed down.
"Yes, the person involved is not anxious, so why should I be anxious?"
"Under such a disadvantageous situation, Li Mu even mercilessly refused the second prince's invitation and threw that middle-aged master with extraordinary strength down the stairs … Since he offended the second prince at will, then what about Lord Zhenxi?"
Bai Xuan gradually calmed down.
"Li Mu must have something to rely on."
She was not an ordinary woman, so she naturally realized that.
Gradually calming down, Bai Xuan certainly did not ask more questions, so she got up and left the room.
"Brother Mu, are you really … okay?" Hua Xiangrong still could not help asking Li Mu in a low voice. Now, her heart was completely tied to Li Mu. Even if Li Mu appeared to be indifferent, she still inevitably worried about her sweetheart.
Li Mu smiled and said, "Things that can be solved by fighting are not a problem for me." He stared at Hua Xiangrong's face with a smile and said, "Hua 'er, are you worried about me?"
"Yes." Hua Xiangrong gently snuggled up to Li Mu.
Li Mu said, "What I said before is not a lie. You do have unparalleled talent. As long as you practice the Taoist magic arts I teach you, it won't take long for you to look down on the world. At that time, I need you to protect me."
The speaker did not mean it, but the listener thought it.
Actually, Li Mu said that in a joke, but Hua Xiangrong heard it.
In the following time, she really practiced the Xiantian Skill and all kinds of Taoist magic arts more diligently. Her strength also improved by leaps and bounds without anyone knowing.
That afternoon, Li Mu quietly went to the military cemetery to absorb the Spiritual Qi in the Earthvein to practice.
Until that day, the military cemetery was still in a closed state, and no one was allowed to enter to worship.
That was also convenient for Li Mu, because he did not need to worry about being discovered when he practiced here.
Li Mu once again turned on the Leaping Dragon Deployment that had been set up long ago, entered the formation, and sat on the Formation Eye. Under the guidance of the Xiantian Skill, the Spiritual Qi in the Earthvein gushed up from underground crazily poured into Li Mu's body.
In the blink of an eye, another afternoon passed.
When Li Mu's body absorbed enough Spiritual Qi, he once again temporarily turned off the Leaping Dragon Deployment, and then began to operate the Xiantian Skill to refine the Spiritual Qi in the Earthvein in his body.
At the same time, outside the tactical deployment, General Flame and the other dead generals appeared again. Because of the breath-concealing and isolation tactical deployment that Li Mu had set up, they could only see the white mist lingering in the air, but they could not see what Li Mu was doing inside the tactical deployment.
Those dead souls all looked constipated.
