That Li Xinyue was a young bird who didn't understand the world. I didn't expect that Lin Mu, Li Xinyue's companion, was no better than Li Xinyue.
In their opinion, as long as Lin Mu had some experience and scheming, he would not casually follow Manager Xiao to this backyard and step into an unfamiliar attic, let alone show so many spiritual mines to others.
However, this is best for them.
The more idiotic the other party is, the easier it will be for them to deal with it.
"I wonder how many spiritual minerals Mr. Lin has on his body?"
Manager Xiao asked eagerly.
"Humph, this is my private secret. Do you think I will tell you so easily?"
Lin Mu said calmly: "Tell me quickly where my companion is. When I see her, we can talk about everything. Otherwise, you will never get any news from me."
"Sir, you have a bad temper."
Manager Xiao smiled and didn't take Lin Mu's attitude to heart at all.
She has regarded Lin Mu as prey in a trap, and it just depends on their mood when to kill them.
Moreover, Lin Mu was not weak. In her expectation, the best result was to get rid of Lin Mu without paying any price.
They didn't suffer any losses from dealing with Li Xinyue before.
Then she reached out and pulled the bead curtain behind her, and a wall on the other side suddenly parted, revealing a side hall.
In the side hall, Li Xinyue was sitting there as expected.
"gentlemen?"
When she saw Lin Mu, Li Xinyue was immediately startled, "Sir, please leave me alone..."
Before her next words could be heard, a transparent formation barrier rose up in the space where she was in the side hall, completely isolating her voice.
In this way, Lin Mu could only see her, but could not hear anything she said.
Li Xinyue also realized this, and her face was extremely ashamed.
She felt that she was so useless. She obviously wanted to help her husband, but in the end she ended up hurting him.
Lin Mu frowned.
He was not worried at all about the threat from the elixir shop, but he was worried that the other party would threaten him with Li Xinyue.
Because of this, he did not show strong tactics from the beginning, but showed weakness everywhere, making the other party think that he was just like Li Xinyue, a stupid young man who did not understand the world.
"You imprisoned my companion?"
Then, he really looked like a fool and said displeasedly: "I'm warning you, it's best not to do this. I have a lot of spiritual mines. If you piss me off, I won't do business with you anymore."
"Sir, you misunderstood. Miss Li is our distinguished guest. How can we imprison her?"
Manager Xiao smiled.
"I don't care, I want to see my senior sister."
Lin Mu snorted coldly.
After Li Gang and Manager Xiao heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, speechless. They felt that their thinking was too complicated. There was no need for any resourcefulness or means to deal with such a stupid young man.
Before, they were thinking about how to trick Lin Mu into that side hall.
Although the formations in the outer hall are also powerful, they are not as good as that in the side hall. That side hall is the strongest place in the entire hall.
They let Lin Mu know that Li Xinyue was in that side hall, which was a seduction strategy.
Unexpectedly, before they could say anything, Lin Mu took the initiative to ask to come in, and all the words they had prepared were useless.
"Haha, of course no problem."
Li Gang couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, feeling amused by his cautious attitude.
When he first heard that Li Xinyue's partners were coming, he was extremely vigilant and prepared to respond with all his strength.
Now it seems that the other party is just a stupid young man like Li Xinyue. He was played by him without any notice in the applause, and he jumped into the trap on his own initiative.
Then, they opened the barrier and let Lin Mu enter.
"Sir, they have bad intentions."
Li Xinyue said hurriedly.
"Don't worry."
Lin Mu waved his hand, and in order to prevent Li Gang from closing the barrier, he deliberately said: "If you have money, you are the boss. They don't dare to do anything to me."
While he was talking, he had already entered the side hall where Li Xinyue was.
As soon as he entered, Li Gang closed the space barrier again without hesitation.
The space formation in this side hall is the most powerful formation in the entire hall. He invited a formation master to set it up. Even if a high-level Qi practitioner wanted to break through it, it would be impossible for him.
"Sir, I'm sorry, I have troubled you again."
Li Xinyue blamed herself.
"Stop gossiping and tell me what happened. How you were caught."
Lin Mu said calmly.
Li Xinyue was shocked for a while: "Sir, do you know it was me who was arrested?"
She thought that Lin Mu was deceived like her, but she didn't expect that Lin Mu actually knew the truth.
However, since Lin Mu knew the truth, why did he still jump into the trap?
Thump thump thump…
Uncontrollably, her heart beat faster and her ears turned red.
Could it be that your husband also has feelings for her?
Otherwise, if the husband only regards her as an ordinary friend, there is no need to take risks for her.
"Of course I do. Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"
Lin Mu now regarded Li Xinyue as his disciple, and his words were not so polite.
But to Li Xinyue's ears, it was a different story.
She could also feel that Lin Mu no longer regarded her as an outsider like before.
The truth of the matter seemed to be getting closer and closer to what she thought.
But she quickly secretly spat to herself, what time had it been? She and Lin Mu were both in crisis, and she was still thinking about these things. She was really ashamed.
"Hurry up, there are two guys guarding outside, and they won't give us that much time."
Seeing Li Xinyue sitting there in a daze, Lin Mu said angrily.
"Ah, yes."
Li Xinyue came to her senses and quickly told Lin Mu what had happened.
"A few days ago, I was worried about my husband's injury. It happened that I still had some spiritual minerals that my husband gave me, so I thought of coming to this city to exchange the spiritual minerals for money, and then buy some elixirs for my husband."
Li Xinyue said embarrassedly.
After all, she lied to Lin Mu.
That day she and Lin Mu said they were going out for a stroll, but instead they ended up in Bafang City.
Lin Mu didn't care whether Li Xinyue had deceived him, and frowned: "Even so, the people who are targeting you should be those who exchange spiritual minerals with you. How do the people in this elixir shop know that you have spiritual minerals?"
Li Xinyue said, "Because...because I later thought that it would be too troublesome to exchange the spiritual mines for Dahuang coins, and then use the Dahuang coins to exchange for elixirs. I might as well just exchange the spiritual mines for elixirs."
Lin Mu was speechless. He had seen stupid people before, but never such a stupid person.
Now he has some people who can understand this pill shop. Li Xinyue is simply forcing people to commit crimes. Anyone who is a little greedy will probably not be able to help but attack Li Xinyue.
"What spiritual mineral did you exchange for the elixir?"
He continued to ask.
"I don't know how many elixirs you want, sir, so I took out the remaining two hundred pieces of spiritual minerals, thinking of replacing them with as many as possible."
Li Xinyue obviously knew that she had made a mistake, and couldn't help but look at Lin Mu cautiously after speaking.
When she realized that Lin Mu was glaring at her, she hurriedly lowered her head and tugged at the corners of her clothes with her small hands, looking very uneasy.
