Chu Li smiled and said: "Ignore it, count it day by day, maybe in seven days, the emperor will issue a decree to call me back."
"Impossible!" Xu Huande said: "I still know the temper of our emperor. Even if he makes a mistake, he will make it to the end. He will not give up halfway. He will never allow his majesty to be damaged. He would rather regret it than continue to make a mistake!"
"So, he will stay here forever?" Xiao Qi asked with a frown.
Xu Huande said: "Even if someone pleads for mercy, depending on the emperor's temper, I'm afraid it will be difficult to change his mind within a year and a half!"
"Fortunately, it's only a year and a half." Chu Li said with a smile: "If he never changes his mind, I really want to stay here."
His desire for the gods became more and more urgent. He was suppressed everywhere and could not freely act freely. He kept holding a breath in his chest and could not let it out. He felt that he was not worthy of the opportunity of rebirth.
Xu Huande said: "This is natural!...Chu Li, I found that there are some dangerous signs in your thoughts, and you are disrespectful to the emperor."
"If you are so respectful, you will never become a god." Chu Li shook his head.
"Chu Li, although you are a genius, even better than Fa Yuan from the Great Leiyin Temple, it is extremely difficult to become a god. It is best to give up such thoughts, so as not to ask for trouble." Xu Huande shook his head.
, stood up and said: "Let's go, let's find a quiet place."
Chu Li nodded: "Let's go to my newly bought house."
"Go to my side." Xu Huande shook his head.
Chu Li agreed, and he and Xiao Qi followed Xu Huande down to the restaurant, turned around and entered a narrow alley, and then came to an ordinary house.
The houses here are very different from the ones Chu Li bought, being narrow and low.
"Commander Xu?" Chu Li looked around.
Xu Huande shook his head and said: "The money can be taken out, but it is really not necessary. Besides, it is not appropriate to make a big splash."
"Isn't it difficult to buy a better house?"
"A good house is too conspicuous. If you don't have enough strength, you can't protect it." Xu Huande shook his head and said, "If you buy it, it will be occupied."
"The security in the city is so bad?" Chu Li frowned.
Xu Huande said: "On the surface, there is no problem, but don't forget that there are martial arts figures here. Although the city guard is also a master, he cannot control every corner of the city. One is black and the other is white since ancient times!"
"Then who has the final say underground?" Chu Li said.
Xu Huande pushed the door open and went in. There was only a flower garden in the small courtyard. Next to the flower garden was a wooden table, which was stained and worn by the wind and rain.
The three of them sat at the wooden table. Xu Huande made tea and sighed: "The Lord of the Underground was originally a captain of thousands, surnamed Xu and given name Guangyang. He was a general in southern Xinjiang. He fought with Dazheng all the year round.
Later, he was convicted and sent here."
Chu Li frowned and thought.
Xu Huande continued: "This Xu Guangyang also abolished his martial arts and came here like you, but his martial arts were abolished by the imperial court and then thrown here. Unexpectedly, he quickly restored his martial arts, unified his four subordinates, and became
No one dares to mess with the boss in the city."
"Does the Emperor know?"
"Know."
"It's really interesting." Chu Li shook his head.
"He was overthrown by the Secret Guard Mansion in the first place." Xu Huande shook his head and said, "He hates our Secret Guard Mansion to the core!"
Xiao Qida frowned even more tightly.
"Then Commander Xu can't defeat him?" Chu Li said.
Xu Huande shook his head: "His cultivation level is extremely high, I am no match for him, and the four guys under him are also top masters!"
Chu Li said: "It seems that the days to come will not be peaceful."
"There are rivers and lakes everywhere, and it's much more dangerous here than in Shendu!" Xu Huande shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Back then, I only relied on my energy to do things, and I relied on the emperor to protect me. I offended people when I offended people. How could I have imagined that such a day would come.
.”
He sighed again.
Fate is unpredictable. He never thought that such a day would come to him, and he couldn't hide his feeling of loss.
I originally thought that being sincere and doing things true to my heart would gain the emperor's respect, but I didn't expect that the emperor would throw him away at a single thought. He was in such a difficult situation, and no matter how strong his martial arts was, he could only fight alone, far inferior to Xu Guangyang's group.
Chu Li smiled and said: "Commander Xu, you don't have to worry after today. With the lady here, it will be a piece of cake to deal with those guys!"
Xiao Qi glared at him angrily.
Xu Huande smiled bitterly and said: "No matter how powerful Miss Xiao is, she can only stay for seven days. Besides, she may not be able to beat Xu Guangyang."
"Just give it a try." Chu Li said, "Miss, how about it?"
"Yeah." Xiao Qi nodded.
Chu Li then chatted with Xu Huande about the situation in the city and Xu Huande's mission.
Xu Huande's mission was to patrol the outer mausoleum, which was free time. However, people from the outer mausoleum could not live in the mausoleum. They entered the imperial mausoleum on time to take turns, and when the time came, they had to come out and return to the city to live.
Only those who live in the tomb can live in the tomb.
"The guards of the inner mausoleum can also enter the city." Xu Huande said: "Those guys are all top experts. You'd better not offend them. They only stay here all their lives and are unscrupulous. Many of them have mental problems and are like lunatics.
"
Chu Li nodded slowly.
Xiao Qi sat aside and just listened but said nothing.
It was already dark, Chu Li and Xiao Qi left Xu's house. Before leaving, they left Xu Huande a spiritual pill to help him recover from his injuries.
The two of them walked along the river.
The weeping willows are gently blowing and moving with the whirling night wind.
Strings of lanterns hung on both sides of the river, illuminating the river and the houses on both sides. The river swayed gently and sparkled.
There is a small boat on the river floating with the waves, like a leaf on the river. Some literati are sitting in the small boat, reciting poems and composing poems, and the sound of silk and bamboo is floating on the boat.
"The dignified deputy commander of the Secret Guard Mansion has ended up in such a predicament." Xiao Qi shook her head gently.
Chu Li said: "Who let him be abandoned by the emperor?"
Xiao Qi looked at him with clear bright eyes.
Chu Li smiled and said: "Don't worry, miss, I will never be like this."
"If I leave, you won't be able to use martial arts. Once you are besieged, how will you escape? Magical powers are a big secret that cannot be leaked!"
"It's nothing to be beaten." Chu Li said.
Xiao Qi shook her head slightly and bit her lower lip.
Small boats floated on the river, and beautiful songs came, melodious and sweet.
The two walked side by side by the river, they could hear the footsteps, and their faces were looming under the lantern, and Xiao Qi became charming.
The two of them walked back to the house unknowingly and suddenly stopped.
The door was shattered on the ground, as if someone had chopped it into pieces with a knife. It was in tatters. When the two of them walked in, they saw that the flowerbed in the front yard was in pieces, with broken flowers and leaves scattered everywhere. It was completely destroyed.
The stone table next to the flower garden was shattered into pieces and turned into a pile of stones. The stone pillars were overturned and there were knife marks everywhere. They were no longer usable.
Chu Li took a deep breath and hummed: "It seems we don't need to come to the door, they came to you first!"
Xiao Qi's bright eyes flashed with cold light, and she said calmly: "You are indeed very talented!"
Through these knife marks and palm marks, she deduced that these people's cultivation levels were indeed masters of Heaven and Earth, and their cultivation levels were profound.
The two of them arrived at the house again. All the furniture was dismantled and no one was intact. The bed was broken into several pieces, the bedding was torn, and pieces of brocade and silk were scattered all over the floor like cotton wool.
