Liu Dan: Deep in thought.jpg
Of the group of people covered in mud, only Liu Dan and Mo Li had their faces seen clearly. According to common sense, the other person must be someone who was trusted by General Liu and probably the commander of the soldiers.
It was no accident that Si Zhuan picked Mo Li.
He wanted to torture Liu Dan, so how could a pawn who was too light be enough?
Those who came back with Si Zhuan came to the side of the ravine one after another. They were not as angry as Si Zhuan, even persuading in a low voice: “Young master, this disaster might be a good opportunity.”
“A good opportunity?” Si Zhuan angrily asked, “The Si family’s foundation is destroyed and many years of planning is for naught, what kind of good opportunity is this?”
“Young master, the Si family has been dormant for many years, and you have suffered a lot for it. If you think about it, aside from bearing the burden of humiliation and plotting big plans, it is more often the Si family who is holding you back. The Master is stupid and ignorant, if he hadn’t ordered someone to kill Zhang Xianwei, how could he have attracted the attention of the court? Today’s matter was also the same. The Master doesn’t keep things secret, the account book was actually stolen by a servant, and he sent people to chase with great fanfare. Young master deduced that the situation is not good and could only put all his eggs in one basket, preparing to kill Liu Dan and directly raise an incident… now that there’s an earthquake, whether it’s the account books or the evidence of the Si family’s mining, it all being gone should be a good thing, isn’t that so? The hidden gold and silver are still there, the goods can be bought again, and the armor can still be made, it’s also not difficult for people to practice again.”
Si Zhuan’s face changed back and forth.
Liu Dan thought to himself that this was the case. The ambitious son had a useless father who exposed the Si family ahead of time. When he heard the next few words, his expression froze.
Not good! The Si family is rich, but State Teacher Meng is short of money!
As for the rebellion of the Si family, and the rebellion against the Qi Dynasty, Meng Qi might be very happy! Even if Meng Qi didn’t like Si Zhuan, if the Si family’s wealth fell into the hands of the former dynasty’s State Teacher, would it be bad luck or good luck?
General Liu hadn’t finished thinking when he heard the man next to him who claimed to be a physician ask:
“You are the young master of the Si family?”
After a pause, Si Zhuan finally realized that Mo Li was not acting like General Liu’s personal soldier.
Because Liu Dan looked at this person with complicated eyes and even seemed to be a little afraid.
“Who is Your Excellency?” Si Zhuan looked at Mo Li and slowly clenched his hands behind his back.
No matter who it was, after hearing these secrets, he naturally won’t let them leave alive.
Meng Qi who saw Si Zhuan’s actions: “…”
Although Meng Qi knew that the physician could handle it, this person actually wanted to attack the physician under his nose.
Meng Qi’s hands were a little itchy, and he couldn’t help but strike with an invisible force.
Si Zhuan suddenly turned his head when the force got close to him and hastily retreated.
“Who?”
Si Zhuan was astonished and his subordinates also felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
——the young master’s martial arts is very high, and he’s also a top-notch player in the jianghu, so it stands to reason that no one in Pingzhou could beat him unless he encountered evil people who have disappeared long ago, or old experts in those sects.
Where did these masters come from in this wilderness?
Si Zhuan followed the direction of the force, only then realizing that there was actually a person in the shadow of the tree.
The posture was very strange, holding the tree trunk with one hand, as if afraid that the tree would fall…
If you look closely, this person was also covered in mud, and part of the tree roots have been dug out.
What’s happening here? Did they come here to dig a tree?
“No…where did this tree come from?” Si Zhuan stared at Meng Qi, puzzled.
Mo Li handed Liu Dan over to the soldiers. He leaped out of the ravine and landed silently, without even splashing the stagnant water or mud. The lightness of that move made the expressions of the Si family soldiers change, and they spread out to surround Mo Li.
“Who are you?”
Si Zhuan felt a little uneasy at the abnormal situation.
But of everything that happened today, which one was not abnormal? The Si family was gone, no matter what rhetoric his subordinates say, the facts were right in front of them. His seven years of painstaking efforts to manage the power accumulated by several generations of the Si family disappeared overnight.
Mo Li looked directly at the young master of the Si family, and coldly asked, “Where are the refugees who were abducted by the Si family from Yongzhou five years ago?”
Si Zhuan was taken aback and subconsciously turned to look at his cronies.
The man turned pale and shook his head at Si Zhuan.
——how could there be any survivors among the coolies abducted five years ago? Even if there were really some very lucky people, the Si family had already killed all the people when the gold mine incident was exposed a few months ago.
Si Zhuan understood. He frowned and said, “Your Excellency came to Qiuling County to find someone? Saying that our family abducted refugees, where is the evidence?”
Mo Li didn’t argue with him at all, and directly said, “I’m not looking for people, the person is dead, so it’s natural to seek revenge.”
“Your Excellency, it’s true that Si family stronghold once bought servants, but now that the stronghold has collapsed and everyone is dead, this…”
Before Si Zhuan’s confidant finished speaking, he felt a force coming towards him, crushing him and making him fall into the ravine.
“I don’t like to hear dogs barking.” Mo Li looked at Si Zhuan expressionlessly and continued to ask, “Where are the bones of those refugees?”
“…”
Si Zhuan looked behind him from the corner of his eye, secretly looking for a way out.
There were two opponents here whose strength he couldn’t fathom. Just in case, it’s natural to retreat first.
“And there being no trees near the Si family stronghold, what do you mean?”
Mo Li took a step forward but Si Zhuan couldn’t help but back away, then he realized that something was wrong and angrily said, “Your Excellency, it’s unreasonable to say that nonsense. This mountain area is owned by our family. If there are trees in front of the gate and what kind of trees to plant…what does this concern you?”
When he said the last sentence, he suddenly made trouble, raising his palm and hitting the other person head-on.
Mo Li dodged to the left, his muddy clothes fluttering in the wind created by the palm.
Very deep inner strength.
It’s absolutely impossible for a normal person to have such internal strength at such a young age.
Mo Li’s eyes went sharp and he flipped his hand in return.
However, Si Zhuan didn’t want to go all out. Seeing that his palm strike was in vain, he raised his internal strength and flew away without even thinking about it. His movements were secretive, and his speed was as fast as a wisp of smoke.
Mo Li was about to chase, but Meng Qi let go of his hand and motioned, “Physician, continue!”
Physician Mo was shocked and hurried over to hold the tree trunk.
This was a tree with aura, and it must not die.
When he looked up again, Meng Qi had already gone to chase Si Zhuan, and Si Zhuan’s subordinates reacted very quickly, fleeing in all directions using qinggong.
Mo Li kicked up the gravel at his feet, caught some, and threw it with one hand. Hearing a cry of pain, those people tilted their bodies but still ran desperately forward, obviously, these injuries were nothing to them.
Mo Li frowned, raised his hand, and directly dragged Liu Dan’s two soldiers out of the ravine.
“Help me hold the tree trunk and don’t move.”
After Physician Mo finished speaking, he left behind the two trembling soldiers and chased after the others.
People from the Si family were not bad at martial arts, and they were not just putting on airs, much better than those jianghu people he encountered in Qinghu Town, but still not good enough in front of Mo Li.
Mo Li caught them one by one, and they were basically resolved in ten moves.
When he came back carrying the last person, Mo Li met Meng Qi who was holding Si Zhuan’s neck.
The young master, who was still majestic just now, was held up in the air by Meng Qi by the neck. Si Zhuan’s face was pale, and Meng Qi watched him struggle with great interest, even with a faint hostility as his fingers slowly tightened.
“Physician?”
Meng Qi suddenly saw Mo Li, and he immediately threw Si Zhuan on the muddy ground, pretending that nothing happened.
Si Zhuan violently coughed and managed to catch his breath. He looked terrified since he didn’t know how Meng Qi caught him just now and what kind of terrible feeling it brought him.
“Physician, I sealed his acupuncture point, so he can’t escape.”
Meng Qi looked at Mo Li’s expressionless face, then at Liu Dan’s soldiers who were holding up the tree with muddy faces and blank eyes, so he immediately went back to the tree and drove those people away.
At this time, Si Zhuan’s subordinate, who had fallen into the ravine before, suddenly drew his sword, jumping up and rushing toward Liu Dan.
General Liu’s soldiers had been tossed around since midnight. They’d already fought, then made to dig rocks underground to find a way out, and were already exhausted. Now caught off guard, they were easily pushed aside.
“Let our young master go, otherwise…”
Before he could finish, the knife on Liu Dan’s neck flew away.
Mo Li slowly put down his hand. The man was dumbfounded and finally realized what a terrible enemy they had provoked.
Liu Dan, who was so seriously injured that he couldn’t stand: “…”
Being rescued again, his mood was delicate. Was this considered being protected?
Why was he protected? Liu Dan couldn’t figure it out. Could it be that Meng Qi had an enmity with the Si family?
Mo Li walked up to Si Zhuan, ignored his angry gaze, and asked expressionlessly, “Where are the bones of the refugees?”
Si Zhuan didn’t answer.
“I remember someone saying a word just now, human-pig.” Mo Li flipped his palm, and there was an extra knife.
It was very dark and the thunderstorm had stopped. Si Zhuan didn’t realize that the knife had no blade and his face became so ugly that he looked like a dead man. It seemed that until now, he still hadn’t figured out why he failed, and why he fell to such a point.
“Brother Meng, do you know what a human-pig is?”
“Physician, I don’t read much, so I don’t know.”
“Severe hands and feet, remove the eyes, brighten the ears, drink medicine for abscesses, that’s called a human pig. I have no copper juice to deafen your ears, nor dumb medicine, but cutting off the limbs and gouging out the eyes is not a difficult task.”
After Mo Li finished speaking, he asked again, “Do you want your men to come first, or do you want to die quickly?”
Si Zhuan angrily asked, “Who are you?”
Mo Li directly destroyed his dantian. Si Zhuan’s eyes were about to burst. To practice martial arts, he endured a lot of hardships, and because of the Si family’s big plan, they can’t use martial arts outside. Years of study became nothing, how could he not hate?
“I abolished your martial arts and you are very angry…this deep internal force, you have practiced less than one-tenth of it and the rest is the effect of panacea.” Mo Li told Si Zhuan and asked word for word, “Where did your Si family find this elixir? Where did you find the gold mine?”
“It turns out that you are here for the gold mine. Under Mount Silang, there are gold mines all over.” Si Zhuan strangely laughed, “It’s a pity that you came a step late. All the gold has been dug up by our Si family, you won’t be able to find it outside of Qiuling County!”
“You hollowed out a mountain?”
Meng Qi, Mo Li, and Liu Dan asked in unison.
Mo Li grabbed Si Zhuan’s right shoulder, and the sudden sharp pain made Si Zhuan sweat profusely. He tried to suppress the pain without screaming and met Mo Li’s deep eyes. In a trance, he felt that the other party was not human at all.
“How did you dig and when did you start digging, tell me everything…otherwise, I will make you regret not dying in the earthquake.”
The author has something to say:
It will be revealed in the next chapter, but it doesn’t matter if I spoil it in advance.
In fact, the point is not mining, but too many people died in the gold mine…
