"Magic Moon Shoot?" Li Mu was stunned.
But he immediately guessed that Elder Brother Guo was referring to the silver bow he got from Si Kongjing, the Grand Master of Shennong Faction.
Only this bow could be called a 'godly bow'.
Moreover, on that night when he intercepted Wu Biao and others from Qingfeng Citadel, Li Mu once drew the bow and put an arrow on it. He found that under the moonlight, the bow and arrow seemed to be able to absorb the moonlight, so it could be regarded as the Magic Moon Shoot.
"Does that bow belong to Elder Brother Guo?" Li Mu reacted and said, "When I get back to the county government, I will get it for Elder Brother Guo."
Although that bow was very suitable for Li Mu and had extraordinary power, Li Mu said it without hesitation.
Although he liked treasured bows and divine objects, compared to the friendship between friends, no matter how precious a divine object was, it was not worth a penny.
That was the contradictory and unrestrained part of Li Mu's character.
"Hahahaha, Elder Brother Mu, don't mention this kind of thing again. It is God's will that the Magic Moon Shoot fell into your hands. From now on, it belongs to you." Guo Yuqing laughed.
The forthright man patted Li Mu on the shoulder and said, "That year, my wife and I retired to Taibai Mountain to avoid the troubles in the world and didn't want to appear in Jianghu again. So, I threw the Magic Moon Shoot into the flood. It is a spiritual thing and can choose its own master. From now on, you are its master."
Li Mu captured some information from Elder Brother Guo's words.
Retired to live in seclusion!
Li Mu could almost imagine how magnificent Guo Yuqing and his wife were when they were in Jianghu. People like Guo Yuqing seemed to be born to be influential figures in the world, just like Qiao Feng, the Grand Master of the Beggar Gang in the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils written by Master Jin Yong on Earth.
"Well, Elder Brother Mu, from now on, I will teach you the mental cultivation method and skills of the Heart Heavenly Shoot.
Watch carefully. "
Guo Yuqing looked solemn.
…
…
In Taibai County, everything seemed calm.
But in the county government, Feng Yuanxing, Ma Junwu, and Qing Feng, the little attendant, were running around anxiously.
Three days had passed, but the county magistrate was still nowhere to be seen.
Since the night three days ago when the county government was attacked and the little girl Ming Yue was taken away by the blind Taoist, the county magistrate chased after her to look for her. He had never appeared in the past three days.
Not only did Li Mu not show up, but the moon that had been taken away was also nowhere to be found.
For the leaderless Feng Yuanxing and the others, three days were as long and torturous as three years.
Although the county looked calm on the surface, the turbulent undercurrents made Feng Yuanxing and the others tremble with fear.
Feng Yuanxing was especially troubled when the families of the martial arts heroes who were locked up in the prison brought the ransom money to his acquaintances.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Qing Feng, the little attendant, was calm.
After a round of discussion, the county government behaved very strongly. According to the strategy that Li Mu had set before he left, they thoroughly carried out the policy of "one hand over the money, and the other hand over the prisoners". About 20 people were released from Taibai County.
After all, it had not been long since Li Mu killed all the people, and his power was still lingering.
Even if those Jianghu heroes hated Li Mu in their hearts, they did not dare to show it on the surface. They were afraid that Li Mu, the devil, would go crazy again, so they did not even dare to say a harsh word and left dejectedly.
However, as time went by, more and more forces came to Taibai County to pay the ransom, and the status of the representatives was getting higher and higher. Gradually, it became difficult to fool them.
Especially when the two great elders of the Sky Dragon Faction and the Huya Faction appeared in the county, they were not in a hurry to pay the ransom, nor did they come to the county government to negotiate. Instead, they found an inn in the city and stayed there, as if they were waiting for something.
His attitude made Feng Yuanxing and Qing Feng, the little attendant in the city, feel great pressure.
On the fourth day.
The red sun rose high, and the two suns hung in the sky.
Feng Yuanxing, Ma Junwu, and Zhen Meng came to the county government early in the morning.
"We can't wait like this anymore," Feng Yuanxing was like an ant on a hot pot and said anxiously, "The great elders of the two factions have obviously got the news that the county magistrate is not here. These Jianghu sects are very well-informed. Young Master Ming Yue, can you find a way to contact Duan Shuiliu? With Duan Shuiliu in the county government, the situation will be clearer."
Ming Yue shook his head.
As for the origin of Duan Shuiliu, he actually had a very frightening guess in his heart, but in this situation, of course, he could not say it, otherwise, everyone would be more confused.
"What should we do?" Feng Yuanxing rubbed his hands.
It was really a sin. He felt that in the past three days, he seemed to have aged 30 or 40 years, and he had a lot of white hair.
"How about we take the initiative to contact the Sky Dragon Faction and the Huya Faction, ask for ransom, and then release Dongfang Jian and Tie Zhendong, and drive them away?" Warden Zhen Meng, who had been silent, said, "As long as we show a strong performance, I think these frightened birds dare not make trouble."
Feng Yuanxing stood still and thought for a while, and then he and Qing Feng looked at each other and sighed in their hearts.
Now it seemed that this was the only feasible way.
Just at this time, footsteps came from outside.
A guard hurriedly ran in and reported, "Lords, the messenger of Chang 'an Government has arrived, and he has been waiting for you at the gate of the county government."
Feng Yuanxing and others suddenly changed their faces.
"The messenger of Chang 'an Government?"
When the Jianghu people made trouble in Taibai County, the county government sent more than a dozen letters for help, but there was no response from Chang 'an Government. Now this wave of things had subsided, and when the undercurrent was surging, the messenger of Chang' an Government came late. Was it a blessing or a curse?
They were puzzled, but they did not dare to neglect.
Feng Yuanxing and others hurriedly came to the gate of the county government.
A team of well-armed elite soldiers, about a hundred of them, stood in a neat formation at the gate of the county government. They were led by four deputy generals on horseback. They were all young and strong men in their twenties or thirties. They were strong and imposing. Obviously, they were all first-class masters in the Joint-thoughts level.
After all, Chang 'an Government was a large province of the Western Qin Empire, under the jurisdiction of nine administrative counties, and Taibai County was one of them, so the number of soldiers and masters in the army was obviously not comparable to Taibai County.
At the forefront of the team, two strong men, one scholarly and the other military, stood on horses.
The middle-aged man dressed like a scholar had a round face, but he had an aquiline nose. Under the seemingly amiable manner, there was a kind of imperceptible malice. He wore a brocade robe and rode a cyan mane horse. The one dressed like a military general was a tall and thin young man, who habitually slightly squinted his eyes, and there was a trace of light flowing in his eyes, giving a sense of indifference to strangers.
These two people, at first glance, could tell that their status was not low.
And behind these two people, there was an ebony carved carriage pulled by four horses.
The design of the carriage was simple and unadorned, but the vermilion paint gave off an oppressive air of nobility. The lines painted with gold and silver were winding around it, giving off an air of elegance and luxury. The carriage alone was more than four meters long and two meters wide. The fine horses that pulled the carriage were pure-blooded jujube horses from Fengxiang Prefecture of the Western Qin Empire. Each of them was worth a thousand taels of gold. They were more than two meters tall and extremely handsome.
In such a carriage, the passengers must be either rich or noble.
When Feng Yuanxing and others came out and saw the carriage, their faces suddenly changed.
"Is there a big shot from Chang 'an Government?"
A deputy general got off the horse and put his hand on the hilt of the long sword hanging at his waist. His sharp eyes swept over Feng Yuanxing and others who came out of the gate of the county government and shouted, "Where is Li Mu, the county magistrate of Taibai County? Hurry up and come out to welcome Mr. Zheng. "
"Mr. Zheng?"
Hearing that, Feng Yuanxing was shocked, and immediately a terrible figure in the Chang 'an Government emerged in his mind.
"I am Feng Yuanxing, welcome Mr. Zheng."
"I am Ma Junwu …"
"I am Zhen Meng …"
They did not dare to neglect, and stepped forward to salute.
Qing Feng, the little attendant, was not an official, so he stood behind Feng Yuanxing and the others in silence. He did not speak but rubbed his temples out of habit. His handsome little face was tense all the time.
"Where is Taibai County Magistrate Li Mu? Why doesn't he come out to welcome Mr. Zheng? "The deputy general looked arrogant, and shouted loudly without looking at Feng Yuanxing and others.
In the carriage, it was quiet.
"Well … His Honor Li achieved something in practice the day before yesterday, and he is in closed-door training, so we can't inform him, so …" Feng Yuanxing carefully organized his words.
"How dare you! Who do you think Mr. Zheng is? How could he be so arrogant for a simple closed-door training? Does he still want to be the county magistrate?" The deputy general said harshly and directly pointed his finger at Feng Yuanxing's forehead.
"Well …" Feng Yuanxing was so anxious that his forehead was covered with sweat, and he did not know how to answer.
Ma Junwu, Zhen Meng, and others beside him also changed their faces.
Why did they feel that the envoy of Chang 'an was so mean, and it was obvious that he came to make things difficult for the county magistrate?
"Go and inform Li Mu to get out and welcome Mr. Zheng."
The deputy general raised the horsewhip in his hand, and with a snap, it made a burst of air in the air, and the whip shadow brushed the hair near Feng Yuanxing's ear, and then he laughed.
Feng Yuanxing felt his face was burning, but he dared not to say anything.
But no one moved.
Because they all knew that Li Mu was not in the county government.
"What are you waiting for? Do you want me to say it again? Is Li Mu courting death? How dare he put on such an act in front of Mister Zheng. I think he must be crazy. I'll give him twenty breaths of time and have him come out immediately, "the deputy general said arrogantly as he brandished the horsewhip in his hand.
At this time, there were already a lot of people around the county government.
Seeing this scene, the people around were pointing at them.
Among them, there were several Jianghu people who came to redeem Li Mu. When they saw the deputy general talking so rudely, they felt extremely refreshed. Even the ruthless Taibai County magistrate had to bear the anger from his superior. After all, he was a man in the officialdom, so he had to follow the rules of officialdom.
The other three deputy generals on horseback also sneered.
The little attendant Qing Feng rubbed his temples, smiled bitterly, and took a step forward.
Feng Yuanxing and others on the side had a glimmer of hope, hoping that this resourceful little attendant could solve this deadlock.
However, the look on the little attendant's face suddenly became fierce, and he raised his hand, pointed directly at the deputy general's nose, and scolded, "How dare you! You are just a deputy general, and you are only in the secondary eighth rank. How dare you directly insult the county magistrate of Chang 'an? The envoy of Chang' an government even ignores the imperial law. Haha, I think you are really tired of living. How dare you insult the superior? According to the imperial law, our county magistrate can kill you on the spot. Kneel and admit your mistake!"
Feng Yuanxing and others were immediately stunned.
