Chapter 2463: Wu Qi VS Li Mu + Jiang Shang (Part 2)(1/2)
Chapter 2463: Wu Qi vs Li Mu Jiang Shang (Part 2)
Tu Xingsun observed the situation around him while chatting with Li Mu.
Li Mu did not doubt him. Although he brought nearly a hundred guards to greet him, and there were thousands of guards around the city gate, none of them were too powerful to prevent him from escaping.
Therefore, even if he killed Li Mu in front of everyone, he could just escape and leave.
Tu Xingsun calculated in his mind and thought that the possibility of success was very high, so he was ready to take action immediately, but before he could take action, he heard a voice that he least wanted to hear.
"Master Nephew Tu Xingsun."
Naturally, the only person in Baling City who could call Tu Xingsun his nephew was Jiang Shang.
Although Yang Jian is senior to Tu Xingsun, the age difference between them is actually not that big, so they have always been friends with each other as equals and would not call Tu Xingsun his nephew.
Tu Xingsun turned around dully, and when he saw that the person coming was Jiang Shang, and Yang Jian was standing beside him, he had no choice but to give up the plan of taking action.
If he did it in front of Yang Jian, even if he could really kill Li Mu, he probably wouldn't be able to escape.
After escaping underground but being caught again, Tu Xingsun is no longer as arrogant and ignorant as before, thinking that his great achievements in martial arts can lead him to do whatever he wants.
Although his earth-moving skills are unparalleled in the world, Huang Tianxiang and Zhang Xiu alone can pull him out of the ground.
Yang Jian is several times stronger than the two of them combined, and he obviously has the strength to pull himself out of the ground.
With this thought, Tu Xingsun could only give up the plan of taking action and planned to find another opportunity to attack Li Mu, so he smiled and greeted Jiang Shang and Yang Jian.
"Uncle Jiang, I really didn't expect to see you in Baling. The last time I saw you here was more than ten years ago. How come you always come down to help Tang Lai?"
Tu Xingsun kept Wu Qi's advice in mind and acted as naturally as possible. After all, Li Mu did not doubt him, but it did not mean that his wise uncle would not doubt him.
After Jiang Shang and Tu Xingsun exchanged pleasantries, they asked: "Senior nephew Tu Xingsun, after the plan to burn down Quyou City failed, why did it take you three days to come back?"
When Tu Xingsun heard this, his heart suddenly shivered.
Before he left, Wu Qi told him that if he hadn't returned for three days, even if Li Mu wouldn't doubt him, it would definitely arouse Jiang Shang's suspicion, so he prepared a set of excuses for Tu Xingsun in advance.
Tu Xingsun said calmly: "Uncle Jiang, after Wu Qi saw through the trap, I wanted to find an opportunity to rescue General Li Li, but I didn't expect..."
The first half of what Tu Xingsun said was his own experience, but the part about surrendering after being captured alive was omitted.
As for the second half, after his rescue failed, he was chased by Huang Tianxiang and was injured. He spent a lot of effort to escape, but he came back as soon as he got out of trouble.
After hearing this, Li Mu had no doubts. After all, there was no flaw in Tu Xingsun's words, so he said with a guilty look on his face: "It's all Li's fault. You almost hurt my brother."
"It's okay, it's okay. I've come back fine, haven't I?"
Tu Xingsun waved his hand quickly, and when he saw Jiang Shang on the side did not continue to question him, he felt relieved.
After some exchanges, Li Mu comforted Tu Xingsun a few words, and then took the guards to inspect the city defenses. Tu Xingsun followed Jiang Shang back to his home to rest.
Although Tu Xingsun followed Jiang Shang, he was only thinking about killing Li Mu once night came.
But as soon as he entered the mansion, Tu Xingsun began to murmur in his heart.
Who lives in this mansion? It's too luxurious. They even use big bluestones to pave the road. Living here is not suitable for him to perform earthly magic.
Seeing that Tu Xingsun's speed had slowed down, Jiang Shang turned around and smiled at him: "Master nephew, why are you still standing there? The banquet has been prepared for you."
"Oh, here we come."
Tu Xingsun responded quickly and followed Jiang Shang to the front of a hall.
But after pushing the door open, there was no banquet inside, instead it was completely empty.
[Ding dong, Jiang Shang’s skill ‘Flying Bear’ is activated;
Flying Bear: Flying Bear enters the dream, the pillar of the country. This is Jiang Shang's unique skill.
Effect 1: When you are granted the title of Grand Master or Prime Minister, three random items in your five dimensions will be permanently set to 1.

Effect 4: In the case of mental arithmetic but not care, the opponent's intelligence can be suppressed by 1 to 8 points depending on the opponent's intelligence.】
"Uncle, are you going to the wrong place? How can there be a banquet here?"
Tu Xingsun turned around in confusion and saw Jiang Shang closing the door. He looked at him with a joking face and said, "Act, nephew, please continue to act."
[Ding dong, Jiang Shang’s skill ‘Flying Bear’ has an effect of 5. If you do mental arithmetic but not carelessly, it can suppress the opponent’s intelligence by 1 to 8 points depending on the opponent’s intelligence.
Currently, Tu Xingsun's intelligence is reduced by 8 points.
Tu Xingsun: Basic intelligence is 60 points, current intelligence dropped to 52;]
Tu Xingsun, who had been reduced to wisdom, suddenly felt a thump in his heart when he heard Jiang Shang's words. He suppressed his uneasiness and fear and pretended to be stupid: "Uncle, what are you talking about? What did I do to my nephew?"
But he didn't realize that his reaction was very strange.
Jiang Shang was too lazy to listen to Tu Xingsun's story and said straight to the point: "You surrendered to Qin."
The biggest secret in his heart was exposed, and Tu Xingsun suddenly felt like he was struck by lightning. He didn't know where he had exposed his flaw, but it was obvious that he would not admit it.
"Uncle Master, what are you talking about? How could this disciple surrender to Qin?"
"Hmph, what's impossible? With your temperament, if you are captured, who will surrender if you don't surrender?" Jiang Shang snorted coldly.
"..."
Tu Xingsun suddenly felt humiliated, but he couldn't refute because everything Jiang Shang said was right, which was very irritating.
"Uncle Jiang, you must speak with evidence. Even if you are highly respected, you cannot humiliate your disciples casually."
"You kid, you haven't been smart since you were a child, and you are also stupid.
If you had not surrendered to Qin, when my uncle asked where you had been for the past three days, your reaction would have been to be suspicious and angry.
But not only did you not do it, but you explained the cause and effect clearly without any mistakes. But sometimes perfection is also a flaw.
With your Tu Xingsun's brains and eloquence, you cannot come up with such a perfect reason. Someone must have come up with it for you behind the scenes.
If my uncle's guess is correct, this person should be Wu Qi." Jiang Shang said expressionlessly.
Wu Qi underestimated Jiang Shang's understanding of Tu Xingsun. He only thought that Jiang Shang was not Tu Xingsun's master and did not know Tu Xingsun well enough, so he would not easily doubt his disciple.
But the actual situation is that among this own disciples, there are also different targets.
If it were Yang Jian and Lei Zhenzi, Jiang Shang would naturally not doubt it, but if it was Tu Xingsun who was greedy for life and afraid of death, how could he not doubt it.
However, Wu Qi's words about teaching Tu Xingsun were so perfect, which actually fueled Jiang Shang's suspicion.
After listening to Jiang Shang's words, Tu Xingsun was completely dumbfounded. He never expected that the fact that he had no flaws would actually become his biggest flaw.
"Tu Xingsun, you..."
Yang Jian had just spoken, but he didn't know what to say, because just by looking at Tu Xingsun's expression, he knew that what Jiang Shang said was right, Tu Xingsun surrendered to Qin.
Now Yang Jian somewhat understands why Jiang Shang did not call Lei Zhenzi, but only called him. After all, with Lei Zhenzi's hatred for the Qin Dynasty, if he knew that Tu Xingsun surrendered to Qin, he would probably kill him.
"Tu Xingsun, my uncle does not blame you for surrendering to Qin to save your life, but you cannot attack Li Mu. Without Li Mu, Baling City cannot be defended."
After saying that, Jiang Shang turned to look at Yang Jian and said, "Get him."
"clear."
After Yang Jian responded, he strode towards Tu Xingsun.
Tu Xingsun kept backing away with a look of fear on his face. Even if he wanted to use the Earth Technique, he couldn't do it because the floor was made of granite that was harder than the big bluestone. His Iron Head Skill had not yet been trained enough to break the granite.
the point.
"Yang Jian, don't come here...I will fight with you..."
Before he finished speaking, Tu Xingsun curled up and was punched in the abdomen by Yang Jian who was close at hand. His whole body was bent into a bow shape and he even vomited out bile.
He never expected that he would fall down before he could exert any force, without even the slightest strength to fight back. The gap between him and Yang Jian was really too big.
"you……"
Before he could finish his words, Tu Xingsun rolled his eyes and fainted. The mighty God of War general could not even make a single move under Yang Jian.
Seeing this, Yang Jian looked at Jiang Shang.
Jiang Shangze said: "Lock him up first."
"But how should Li Mu explain it?"
"Let's just say that Tu Xingsun's injury has recurred. He is currently recuperating and can no longer go to the battlefield."
After saying that, Jiang Shang warned seriously: "Yang Jian, please remember not to tell Li Mu or Lei Zhenzi about the news of his earthly grandson surrendering to Qin."
"clear."
Yang Jian nodded.
Longxuhu's surrender had already made Li Mu suspicious of Jiang Shang. After all, Li Mu had heard everything Jiang Shang said to Lei Zhenzi.
The master advised his apprentice to surrender after being captured, but he continued to help Li Tang. This operation was very confusing.
Even if Li Mu is not a suspicious person, it is difficult not to think too much when encountering this kind of situation.
If he knew that Tu Xingsun had also surrendered, given Li Mu's temperament, even if he didn't say it on the surface, he would definitely not trust Yuqing disciples in his heart.
