The next morning, Zhu Yanyin personally sent Zhu Xinxin out of the city. The white horse-drawn carriage team was majestic and circled on the mountain road. From a distance, it looked like a light cloud ring, with a fairy-like air.
When the villagers saw this, they would sigh and say, "I wonder what these wealthy people would talk about when they walk on the street. It's definitely not about the daily necessities of life. Most likely they would talk about poetry and wine, and it has to be good wine worth thousands of gold."
Zhu Yanyin asked: "Have you remembered everything?"
Zhu Xinxin replied, "It's nothing but some fancy stories, why can't I remember them? Not only did I remember them, I was able to improve and process them on the original basis. For example, I think it's inappropriate for Palace Master Li to build a school. Our family has contacts with many schools and academies. Wouldn't your lie be exposed with just one poke? Why not change it to distributing porridge at the charity hall?"
Zhu Yanyin thought about it and said, okay, if we pass through poor areas along the way, I will persuade Wanren Palace to distribute food.
Or I can make it myself. I have saved a lot of money along the way and have enough pocket money.
After sending them out of three mountain bends, Zhu Yanyin tightened the reins and watched his cousin's team go away. This time it was very smooth. There was no reappearance of Zhang Can with a green face and fangs, or Pan Jinhua with a green face and fangs, or other people with green faces and fangs.
Zhu Xiaosui asked, "What are you thinking about, young master?"
Zhu Yanyin sighed: "I am a little reluctant to leave my cousin."
"We will be able to go home soon." Zhu Xiaosui comforted, "Dr. Jiang said last time that the young master is recovering very well. In two months at most, he will be able to remember everything that happened before."
Zhu Yanyin responded. Compared to his own minor brain disease, he wanted to hear good news about Li Sui's old injury more.
Zhu Xiaosui reminded: "Master Tang's team is no longer visible, Master, let's go back too."
Zhu Yanyin retracted his thoughts that had drifted away to the sky: "Let's go find Liu Xiyang."
Zhu Xiaosui was stunned. Still want to go
Something happened in the Sky Spider Hall these few days, and the entire Wulin League was in a panic. Even though Jiang Shenglin had guaranteed that the poison would not be spread through bites, most people were still worried - after all, the miracle doctor might make mistakes, but Zhang and Pan Jinhua's cases were real, and they couldn't be careless.
The people in Liujiazhuang were also discussing Pan Jinhua's poison. Liu Xiyang stood aside and listened, with an unidentifiable emotion in his eyes.
"I wish you are here, Mr. Second."
"… "
"Brother Liu!" Zhu Yanyin stepped into the courtyard, still looking happy as usual, as if he was going to celebrate the New Year at Liu's house.
Liu Xiyang sighed silently and signaled the rest of the disciples to leave.
Zhu Yanyin is still not used to it. Why didn't you continue to pretend to be unconscious today? Then all my hypocritical words of concern along the way would have been in vain.
Liu Xiyang sat in the hall, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "Brother Zhu has been looking for me for several days, but do you have any doubts about me?"
Zhu Yanyin: “No, no.”
Liu Xiyang gritted his teeth: "I do have a relationship with Shangru Villa."
Zhu Yanyin: “Ahem!”
Wait, why did you say that so suddenly? I’m not mentally prepared yet.
He held the teacup and looked at Liu Xiyang in surprise.
Previously, Tan Shuqiu said that a dark shadow had looked for Liu Xiyang in the middle of the night, and it was Liu Xiyang who was the only one who escaped from the poisonous woman. Zhu Yanyin was indeed suspicious, but he never expected that the other party would admit it so readily. The original plan of the Second Master Zhu was to look for him a few more times in public, so as to make the person behind the scenes feel uneasy and take action.
Now that a breakthrough has been made from another direction, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not, it doesn't hurt to give it a listen.
Liu Xiyang said: "I was completely bewildered for a moment. The woman's name is You Cigu. She took the initiative to find me a few months ago and said that she could help me seize the position of the head of Liujiazhuang."
The story finally sounded like it had some of the flavor of a Chinese martial arts novel, but Zhu Yanyin was still puzzled. Isn't the current sect leader your uncle? I saw that he was strong and tough, and it seemed that he could live another two hundred years. Why are you thinking about the position of sect leader now
Liu Xiyang hastened to defend himself: "I didn't want to harm my uncle's life, and I even chose a house for him to live in.
Zhu Yanyin asked very understandingly: "The lake dungeon or the secret room in the tower?"
Liu Xiyang choked and said, "It's a large house in Pancheng, surrounded by mountains and rivers."
Zhu Yanyin: "Then you are quite filial."
Liu Xiyang looked humiliated.
Zhu Yanyin is also innocent. I am not mocking you. I am sincerely praising you. After all, in the storybook, they were all imprisoned in a broken water prison, but you still remembered to arrange a big house for them.
Liujiazhuang is famous in the martial arts world, with complicated forces, internal struggles, and even more young people. Everyone is self-important and thinks they should have a place in the family. Liu Xiyang is no exception. But his position is rather awkward, neither high nor low. His martial arts and interpersonal skills are not top-notch. With such a talent, he can be the leader of a branch, but it is almost impossible for him to become the head of the clan.
Liu Xiyang said: "It was at that time that You Cigu came to me. At the beginning, she did not reveal her identity as a member of the Demon Cult. She only said that she was from Shangru Villa, and I always like to make friends."
After making so many friends, he was dragged into the quagmire of the Demon Cult. Liu Xiyang naturally knew what would happen if a righteous and famous family got involved with the Burning Fire Palace, but he had already done a lot of things together with You Cigu -
"Wait a minute!" Zhu Yanyin interrupted, "What do you mean by 'done a lot of things'? Tell me in detail."
Liu Xiyang seemed to be struggling to answer: "They were just tricks against my fellow disciples. In fact, they are not a big deal. But if they become a team with the Demon Cult... Those things are enough to kill me."
Zhu Yanyin thought to himself, you really don’t cheat outsiders.
Liu Xiyang said: "At that time, I had no way to retreat, and could only continue to work with Youcigu."
Zhu Yanyin asked, "So you have been in contact with the people from Shanru Villa for a long time, and the escaped Du Qian is also in the same group with you?"
Liu Xiyang agreed.
Zhu Yanyin continued to ask: "Then the murders of Cui Wei, Zhao Honghu, and Ge Changye are also related to you?"
When Liu Xiyang mentioned this, he felt even more regretful and angry. After a long while, he said, "You Cigu and Du Qian only asked me to recruit more people. I refused at first, but later they threatened me. I was really scared, and they promised me that they would never kill anyone, so I cooperated with Du Qian and used the good life in Linzhou as bait to trick Brother Cui and the other two out of the team."
"What about Tan Shuqiu? Do you want to recruit him as well?"
"No, no, everyone in the martial arts world knows that Brother Tan and Brother Zhu have a close relationship. I have never thought of provoking him."
Tan Shuqiu came here on his own initiative. When the other three saw that a sucker had come to pay money, there was no reason to let him go. So, they ignored Liu Xiyang's dissuasion and forcibly took Tan Shuqiu along.
Zhu Yanyin asked: "You also set up the formation, right?"
"It's... It's You Cigu." Liu Xiyang lowered his head and said dejectedly like a defeated rooster, "She was afraid that Brother Tan would cause trouble, and she thought that the Canglang Gang was rich but had no status, so it was not worth bothering with. So she secretly set up a formation and let me trick people in. She also taught me to tell Brother Cui and the other two that Brother Tan had gone back to get more silver."
Zhu Yanyin: You are so wicked.
After that was Wanjing City. Although Cui Wei and his two men were idiots, they were not stupid. When they realized that You Cigu might be from the Burning Fire Palace, they were overjoyed and prepared to kidnap her and ask for reward. Liu Xiyang told You Cigu about this, hoping that she would give up trying to win him over. He didn't expect that the other party killed people like crushing ants, and three lives were taken in an instant.
Liu Xiyang cried, "I am sorry for them."
Zhu Yanyin put down his teacup and said, "You have been hiding this for so long, why are you willing to tell me everything now?"
Liu Xiyang smiled bitterly: "Brother Zhu has been looking for me frequently these days. I am not stupid, so how can I not see it? In addition, my conscience has been tormented for so many days, and it has long been... It is better to get it all out at once."
Zhu Yanyin looked at him and said, "But you know that if this gets out, you will be dead."
Liu Xiyang's face turned pale. "I'll keep hiding it. Even if Brother Zhu and Palace Master Li don't find out for the time being, I will definitely be coerced by the Burning Fire Palace to do more things in the future. I really don't want to become a minion of the Demon Cult. Isn't that still a death? And a death that will be cursed by everyone."
Zhu Yanyin asked again: "Then tell me, do you want me to keep it a secret for you?"
Liu Xiyang said, "I am willing to use this identity to atone for my crime. I will continue to lure out more members of the Demon Sect. I also ask Brother Zhu to cover up this matter for me. When I wipe out the Burning Fire Palace in the future, if I can claim credit for my contribution, perhaps the punishment I receive will be lighter, and I won't be stripped of my martial arts and beaten out of the sect."
What he said was sincere and seemed reasonable. Zhu Yanyin stood up and said, "I'll go back and think about it first."
Liu Xiyang bowed vigorously: "Brother Zhu and Palace Master Li, please show some mercy!"
Palace Master Li was standing outside the courtyard.
"Hey, when did you come?" Zhu Yanyin ran forward.
Li Sui said: "It started when you praised him for being filial."
Zhu Yanyin: Isn’t that just the beginning
But it’s better this way, so I don’t have to repeat it again.
Zhu Yanyin walked back with him: "What do you think?"
Li Sui said: "You are the one who found out about this person, so I will naturally follow your instructions on how to deal with him."
Zhu Yanyin froze for a moment. This wasn’t a good idea. I had no experience in the martial arts world. What if I messed up
Li Sui pinched the back of his neck and said, "You have read many storybooks, right? Tell me first, how do you deal with traitors who have been recruited by the evil cult in the books?"
Zhu Yanyin answered truthfully, "Usually when I come across such bloody scenes, I just skip over them. Otherwise, I will be too scared to sleep after watching them, as I will always feel like there is a bloody person under the bed."
Li Sui was in high spirits and seemed to have completely forgotten about Liu Xiyang. He asked again, "So what do you like to watch?"
Zhu Yanyin said: "When the protagonist makes a move, the martial arts world will be in turmoil. The stronger the martial arts, the better. It would be best if everyone is afraid of him."
"I?"
"Well, that's pretty much you."
Li Sui was very satisfied with this answer. He pressed his thumb lightly on the small joint of his neck, which made Zhu Yanyin feel sore and pleasurable. He shrank up and avoided him and said, "You haven't told me yet, how are you going to deal with Liu Xiyang?"
Li Sui let go of his hand: "I said, I'll listen to you."
Zhu Yanyin was still very hesitant. I haven’t even dealt with a chicken before. Are you sure you want me to deal with the traitor
Li Sui continued to look at him with interest: "I'm here, just mess around, what are you afraid of?"
If Zhu Xinxin who is far away knew about this, she would definitely sigh and say, "Oh, brother, look at this devil who has strayed into the right path!"
