Not far away, two strong men with sinewy faces were seen staring angrily at the waiter in front of them who kept bending over to apologize, while the ground was full of broken porcelain bowls.
The guy was just a boy of twelve or thirteen years old. He was trembling in front of two big men. His hands were dripping with blood. He was obviously scratched by broken porcelain pieces, but he kept begging for mercy in his mouth.
"Don't you have eyes? You dare to bump into me. Are you tired of living?"
One of the burly men was wearing a huge mandarin jacket, with his chest exposed, and there were some scars on his chest at this time. It seemed that the incident was caused by the man holding the porcelain bowl and bumping into the burly man's body.
I saw this big man stretching out his big iron gate-like hands, grabbing the clerk by the collar, lifting him directly into the air, and then violently throwing him to the ground.
The young man fell heavily to the ground, and it was so painful that stars were popping out of his eyes, but he quickly knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to the two big men in front of him to admit his mistake.
"Oh, aren't these brothers from the Chen family? Why didn't you say hello in advance when you arrived at the Yue Tower? How did you do this? You actually bumped into an honored guest. Get out of here and don't embarrass yourself here."
Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, the shopkeeper who was originally in the back hall quickly ran out. When he saw these two burly men, his expression changed drastically. However, if he could manage Yuelou, he must have two skills. After quickly adjusting his mentality,
He went up to him with a smile on his face.
While the shopkeeper was apologizing to the big man who was still reluctant, he kept winking at the clerk who was kneeling on the ground, urging him to leave quickly.
"Shopkeeper Lin, it's not that we brothers don't give you this face, we are also considered to be prominent figures in Lishui City. We have fought with many powerful bandits and robbers, but today we were injured by this little brat. We can't just let it go.
Bar."
The other man who had been standing by the side obviously had no intention of giving face to the shopkeeper. He stared and said loudly, and his arrogant aura made Li Mu frown.
"Brother Mu, who are these two people? They are so arrogant. It seems that they are also practitioners, but with this kind of character, I am afraid that in the future..."
Lin Qingzhu's eyes were also attracted by the shouts and curses in the distance at this time. When he saw the Deyuelou clerk being so insulted, he was filled with indignation.
"Shh, this guest, please don't say that, otherwise the two Chen brothers will definitely not let it go if they hear it."
An elderly waiter happened to pass by the table where Li Mu and the others were sitting with a pot of tea. Hearing Lin Qingzhu's words, he quickly stopped him in a low voice.
"Don't take it seriously. These two are famous casual cultivators in Lishui City. The eldest, Chen Niu, and the second, Chen Ma, don't look at them like this, but they are really powerful. It is said that they are all real immortal cultivators.
They have been serving as escorts for the caravans coming and going, and hundreds of bandits have died under their swords. Ordinary people like us can't mess with them."
Seeing that both Li Mu and Fang Yan were noncommittal about his warning, the elderly clerk was a little anxious. He immediately added a few words and briefly introduced the background of the Chen brothers, hoping that the three young men would not get into trouble.
"So that's it. Two casual cultivators who have broken through to the realm of alchemy, but I'm afraid the skills they practice are of average level, so it's difficult to completely contain the energy of heaven and earth."
Li Mu looked thoughtfully at the two Chen brothers who were still arguing. He could feel that the cultivation of the two of them should be at the entry-level level of the Dan Formation Realm. The man who was injured was slightly stronger, and the one who was injured was slightly stronger.
Those who keep spouting arrogant words are inferior.
"Do you want me to take care of it? Otherwise it will keep making noises, which will affect our mood while eating."
Compared to Li Mu, Fang Yan was much more direct in doing things. He practiced the Blood God Art and sometimes even seemed a little violent. Seeing the Chen brothers in the distance, he still didn't want to let the guy go, so he got up and went directly to take care of this.
Two rogue cultivators making a lot of noise.
As strong men who could tear apart level two peak monsters, these two fat men were basically no different from kittens in front of Fang Yan, but Li Mu still grabbed Fang Yan who was about to stand up.
"Let's take another look. If it really doesn't work, let's take action again. After all, this is not Qinglan City. It's best if we don't conflict with the locals."
Fang Yan was stunned at first, but after thinking carefully that what Li Mu said was not wrong, he patiently sat down again, but kept his eyes on the Chen brothers, always paying attention to the development of the situation.
In the end, the farce was calmed down by the intervention of the city lord's personal guards. Deyue Tower is located in the most prosperous area of Lishui City. The increasing number of onlookers naturally attracted the patrolling personal guards.
Although the Chen brothers were powerful, they did not dare to have a head-on conflict with the city lord's direct troops. However, perhaps for the sake of their own face, the two brothers still breathed sweet fragrance to the captain of the Guards before leaving Deyue Tower.
The matter was finally over, which made Li Mu breathe a sigh of relief. There had been several times where he couldn't help but get up and intervene. The situation in Lishui City was unknown, so it was the best option to avoid exposing the strength of the three of them.
But if he really had to, Li Mu was by no means an indecisive person. He would still take action decisively when it was time to take action. Moreover, there was still a militant Fang Yan here, so he wished he could fight every day.
This little episode passed like this, and Deyuelou returned to its bustling atmosphere. Li Mu and the other two said goodbye to each other and returned to their respective rooms.
This night, the moon in the sky was particularly round, and Lishui City under the moonlight was like the only bright light in the thousands of miles of mountains, making it look particularly special.
The next day, in the early morning, after Li Mu finished his basic morning classes, he walked down the stairs with Lin Qingzhu and Fang Yan. Today they were going to the largest market in Lishui City to see if they could sell the Qi-Building Pills in their hands for a good price.
Price.
The three of them walked to the lobby on the first floor, only to find that the guys from Deyuelou were whispering to each other in twos and threes, as if they were discussing something. Among them was the young man who had a conflict with the Chen brothers yesterday.
"Have you heard that the Chen brothers were taken away from their residence by the Guards last night?"
"Really or not, the Chen brothers are all real monks. How could they be taken away by the guards? Didn't they resist?"
"Oh, you don't know something. Yesterday, the city lord personally took action. He said that the Chen brothers secretly stole the iron ore while being hired as guards by the caravan, which prompted the city lord to take action himself."
"So bold? Stealing iron ore is a capital crime. It seems that these two brothers are in trouble this time."
"Isn't that right? They are used to being domineering and domineering on weekdays, but now their lives are probably at stake."
Li Mu and the other three looked at each other in shock as they listened to the discussion of the guys. They did not expect that the two powerful casual cultivators who were in front of them yesterday would become prisoners of the Guards overnight.
