"Haha..." The six-fingered black man heard this and smiled bitterly.
After Guo Kai's death, even though there was no villain to fan the flames in Zhao Wangqian's ears, Zhao Wangqian's wariness and suspicion of Li Mu inevitably increased, and even when there was nothing he could do against the apparent murderer of the Yin Yang family,
I will associate it with Li Mu.
How could it be such a coincidence that as soon as you, Li Mu, left the capital, Guo Kai, who was in tit-for-tat with you, died?
When a superior wants to deal with his subordinates, what he needs is often not evidence that the other party has done something wrong, but support to firm up his own ideas. This support can even be illusory and have no actual dependence at all... What is dissatisfaction and dissatisfaction?
If there is anything left to say, it is unnecessary to say which one is the subject.
Nothing more than that.
Of course the Six-fingered Black Man knew this, and Li Mu knew it even better. So after learning about Guo Kai's death, Li Mu had no intention of giving up his original plan, but instead strengthened his thoughts.
"Li Mu is now just like Bai Qi back then. It's not that Fan Sui, the Marquis of Ying, can't tolerate him, but that King Zhao can't tolerate him. His end... is his inevitable end." Gu Xun commented on Li Mu in a calm tone while drinking tea.
current situation.
"I understand, Mr. Gu, but after all, General Li Mu was kind to the people in the north. If he really ended up like this, how could anyone bear it?"
Gu Xun shook his eyebrows, put down his teacup, and faced the Six-fingered Black Man, "You're right, but...have you read "Zhuangzi"?"
"There is nothing you can do if you don't serve your destiny..." As a Mohist giant, Liuzhi Heixia has certainly dabbled in hundreds of classics. When he heard Gu Xun's words, he thought of the corresponding content, "Sir, do you advocate Taoism?"
"It's no big deal. You're looking down on me. I just happen to know these two sentences." Gu Xun waved his hand, modestly... not quite modest, and said truthfully, "Don't worry so much about Li Mu's matter, just let it take its course.
Well, just take care of dealing with the wolves for now, your machine beast is a big killer on the battlefield."
Gu Xun does have a good impression of Li Mu, and he doesn't mind helping him if he can, but there are some things that a warrior like him cannot solve.
In this world, it is easy to save one's life but difficult to save one's heart. So what if Gu Xun rescues Li Mu by force? It is impossible for him to betray Zhao and surrender to Qin.
Anyway, according to the mysterious plot, people will not die. Let nature take its course and let him guard the Taolin in the north with peace of mind after Zhao's death.
"...Maybe I'm a little stubborn." The Six-fingered Black Man shook his head and sighed, "But I still have the audacity to ask sir to protect Li Mu when the time comes."
Gu Xun didn't bother to promise anything to him. He waved his hand to indicate that he understood, "I'll leave if I have nothing else to do. I've been rushing for half a month. I'm tired and need to rest."
"Oh, I'm the one who bothered you." Hearing Gu Xun's words, the Six-fingered Black Man immediately bowed his hands and apologized, then hesitated for a moment and wanted to ask a question, but gave up in the end.
What he actually wanted to ask was whether Guo Kai's death had something to do with him.
Many people in the world know the style of the Yin and Yang family, and the Moh family, as its mortal enemy, understands it better. They never kill people to steal property, but all the property in Guo Kai's house that can be easily taken away has been looted.
, with his financial resources, this is definitely something that the murderer can only do if he has already made arrangements.
There is no doubt that the masters of the Yin Yang family did it, but it is unknown whether there is a deeper secret behind it. And there happened to be a man who was in Handan City at the same time who was notorious for asking for money (killing others for money)
Lord, how can we not be reminded of it...
Not only the Six-fingered Black Man, but also Li Mu also had this guess, so the three of them had a tacit understanding just now not to mention the important matter of Guo Kai's death to avoid making the atmosphere awkward.
Now that the two of them were alone without Li Mu, the Six-fingered Black Man wanted to ask, but felt that there was no need to mention the matter. He didn't care about Guo Kai's death. Although it would not be a good thing for Li Mu to lose Guo Kai, but this guy
Living is definitely a bad thing for Li Mu, but death is also a good thing.
What he is more concerned about is actually the meaning behind Gu Xun's actions.
First of all, he was sure that it was not a task given to Gu Xun by the Qin State. Guo Kai was of great use to the Qin State, so how could he suddenly kill him? So... just for money, he teamed up with the Yin and Yang family to kill the richest man in Handan.
People?
The significance of this conjecture is what the Six-fingered Black Man is concerned about. If it is a mission from the Qin State, he would not care so much.
"Mr. Gu, you just mentioned "Zhuangzi", so I wonder if you have any knowledge of the "Tao Te Ching" written by another Taoist sage, Lao Tzu?" After thinking about it for a while, the Six-fingered Black Man changed the question. Gu Xun smiled slightly and shook his head decisively, "I know a few words, but I don't understand."
"Uh..." Looking at Gu Xun, who didn't look modest and polite at all, the Six-Fingered Black Man was stunned and speechless for a moment. He didn't know anything. You just took "Zhuangzi"... Forget it. "Knowing what is white and guarding what is black is the way of the world. Does Mr. Gu know this sentence?"
Gu Xun looked at the Six-Fingered Black Man in surprise. He had never heard this sentence before, but the meaning was very easy to understand, and he understood it as soon as he heard it. So, was the Six-Fingered Black Man advising me to restrain my behavior?
?
Interesting!
"Haha, I don't know, but I can understand the meaning." An interested smile appeared on Gu Xun's face, and he looked at the Six-fingered Black Man intently, waiting for his next words.
Seeing him like this, the Six-fingered Black Man knew that the other party had indeed heard what he meant. He nodded slightly and continued, "Since you know it, sir, it's enough. I have no intention of giving you any advice. Just treat this as a... wish."
"So... why are you saying this?" Gu Xun was still smiling, and was not disgusted by the Six-fingered Black Man's talkativeness.
Based on the friendship between the two of them, the Six-fingered Black Man has some superficial friendship, but after all, he has good intentions, his attitude is normal, and he is considered an elder in terms of age. It is enough for Gu Xunfeng not to accept this kind of advice, and he is annoyed by it.
Not necessary.
"Well...I said, just take it as a wish." Six-fingered Black Man thought for a while, but still didn't explain anything more, and repeated what he said before.
In fact, the purpose is very simple. He is just worried that Gu Xun pursues money too much and will make mistakes in the future. At the moment, he is just blackmailing Ji Wuye and robbing and killing people like Guo Kai who deserve to suffer. This can be said to have a bottom line.
But who knows whether we will intensify our efforts in the future, go one step further, and abandon this bottom line?
Firstly, Gu Xun is very powerful. If he causes trouble, he will definitely cause huge damage. Secondly, Six Finger Black Man does not want to see this scene. From his interactions with Gu Xun during this period, although this person is acting radically and biased
, but it does not harm benevolence and righteousness. From a certain perspective, he is a rare good person, and he should not be like this.
"Okay, you pay for the tea." Gu Xun shook his head, not caring that he didn't get a specific answer, got up and left the restaurant.
The Six-Fingered Black Man didn't stay long. He paid the bill and left. There were still a lot of things to do next.
