In the living room of the Li Mansion, Gu Sheng sat at the bottom, and Li Yuan sat at the top. After the two of them greeted each other, Gu Sheng was the first to speak: "I came today because I have something to ask."
When Gu Sheng spoke, he glanced at Li Yuan calmly, feeling that something was not quite right about Mr. Li today!
Li Yuan smiled heartily and said: "Brother Teng has a half-teacher relationship with you. We are all a family, so why should we be cautious? If there is something, just say it. If Yuan can do it, he will definitely do it.
"
"Did something happen to the Li family?"
Gu Sheng murmured in his heart, Li Yuan was not so enthusiastic towards him before. He was so attentive to him for nothing, and he couldn't say that he had encountered some difficulties. But he found that he had some illness on his head, and he rushed to seek medical treatment.
Gu Sheng's idea coincided with Li Yuan's, but he did not think that he was ill and sought medical treatment in a hurry. He once spent a lot of money to hire an elder from Qinghu Island to see the condition of Li Yuan's blocked meridians.
.
But even the elder shook his head and told him that Li's matter could be solved, but the things that could solve the problem were of great significance. Even there were not many in Qinghu Island, and it was impossible to find them on the black market outside. So, still
Rest your mind!
Afterwards, Li Yuan also went to the black market to inquire about information, and the response he received was that such a treasure of the Yi Jing marrow is priceless and has no market. Even if it is available, it will be monopolized by various sects immediately.
There is absolutely no possibility of exodus.
The appearance of Gu Sheng not only gave him a huge sexual surprise, but also made him secretly guess the origins of him and Chu Xin. Chu Xin's daily habits were very regular, and her background was definitely extraordinary.
Gu Sheng seemed to be an ordinary person, but Li Yuan did not dare to neglect him. He benefited a lot from just a few words exchanged. He felt that there should be a big force behind these two people.
The dilemma that the Li family is facing now is not a problem at all to some big forces, it is just a matter of saying something. If Gu Sheng can solve the problem, then he will not have to go to the Tiecheng Shou who offers a very high price.
Already.
As for the price of asking Gu Sheng for help, after all, they are all acquaintances, so it can't be higher than that of the Tiecheng Shou!
"Mr. Li, do you need help with anything?"
The two chatted for a while, and Gu Sheng felt more and more that there was something wrong, so he simply asked his doubts directly. He came here just to try his luck. What he needed was not simple, and he actually didn't have much certainty in his heart.
"Well, haha~ Brother Teng noticed it, and Li became shameless."
Li Yuan laughed awkwardly, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then slowly said: "This is what happened..."
Li Yuan told the whole story and pointed out that he was worried that the matter was related to Zhao Yuanzuo. Then he glanced at Gu Sheng, who remained calm, and said tentatively: "Brother Teng, I don't know if you have any elders, and
Those who have friendship with Qinghu Island, let’s see if we can mediate between them.”
"Master Li, you just said that the Liu family has something to do with the bandits outside Wancheng!"
However, Gu Sheng noticed another problem. In the future, the Li Mansion in Wancheng was destroyed by someone in Wancheng. The perpetrators acted very arrogantly, and even bandits outside the city were chasing Li's mother and daughter who had managed to escape.
In the end, if Teng Qingshan hadn't happened to pass by and take action, Li might have suffered. The entire Li family, including nearly a hundred maids and maids, left only Li as an orphan.
Li Yuan nodded and smiled bitterly: "That's right! It is said that many bandits and horse thieves outside the city are related to the Liu family, and many of the stolen goods from the caravans are circulated in many shops of the Liu family.
The Liu family is a local wealthy family with more than a dozen forts outside the city. They were already arrogant and domineering in Wancheng. Later, they relied on the county guard Zhao Yuanzuo. Even the city guard of the Tie family on Qinghu Island looked down upon him. If not
What he wants is really too much, and I don’t want to offend the Liu family.”
"Could it be that the Li family was destroyed in the future because of this matter?"
Gu Sheng's heart was moved. The original book didn't mention much about the Li Mansion in Wancheng where Li was born. It only explained that his family was exterminated in Wancheng, and it didn't even mention the specific situation of his enemy.
Having been in the world of Jiudingji for so long, Gu Sheng has also learned a lot about the reality. As a "real" world, the world of Jiudingji certainly has many situations that have not been mentioned in novels.
For example, when it comes to exterminating families, in the original work, many powerful forces frequently exterminate families and slaughterhouses, looking bloody, cruel, and arrogant. However, the reality is that no major force would easily kill an entire family, especially in a city.
Among them, this thing is not allowed.
The people of Jiudingji yearn for the city because of its safety. It is different from the world outside the city where the officers and soldiers do not care.
Cities, as the direct subordinate units ruled by major forces, each city has a city guard composed of warriors, who are responsible for protecting the city and maintaining order within the city and the safety of the lives and property of the city residents.
Unless the city guards, as an official force, take action to encircle and exterminate the clan in person, any incident of annihilation is a provocation to the major forces, and those who do it will be very miserable, so basically no one has the courage to kill everyone in the clan.
Li Yuan asked again: "Brother Teng, I don't know, do you have any ideas?"
Gu Sheng pondered for a moment and then said: "It disappoints Mr. Li. Xiao and I are actually from Jiangning County. I am just an ordinary person with some abilities. Although Xiao is a disciple of Guiyuan Sect, this is Wu'an County and Guiyuan Sect.
If people intervene, the situation will only get worse."
Gu Sheng's eyes moved, and he had some thoughts in his mind. Now that his strength has greatly increased, he can be included in the Earth Ranking. If he stands up for Li Yuan, it is possible to settle the matter. However, he has no such idea.
Firstly, the relationship between Li Yuan and him is not that good yet. Secondly, for the reason he just mentioned, he, a person from Jiangning County, was working for someone else in Wu'an County and had a dispute with someone involved with the Wu'an County Sheriff. If he was
If people add fuel to the fire and make nonsense remarks, they are likely to mess up the matter.
"Is this so~"
Li Yuan was a little disappointed. He had also heard of the Guiyuan Sect in Jiangning County. But just as Gu Sheng said, if someone from the Guiyuan Sect intervenes, it may attract Zhao Yuanzuo's attention. If things get out of control later, it will be very serious.
…
"I don't know why Brother Teng came to my place."
Li Yuan calmed down his emotions. Although he was thinking about going to Tiecheng Shou, his attitude towards Gu Sheng did not change, and he did not show any impatience with seeing off guests.
"That's why I came today!"
As Gu Sheng spoke, he emptied the tea cup, picked up a small gourd from his waist and unscrewed the cork. A strong aroma of wine filled the entire living room.
