Great Swordsman

Chapter 256

Fengming Hall, Qiuhu Pavilion.

After Qin Mengyao left Tianyuan Hall, he had a conversation with the little emperor Ji Xuan, and came here to wait.

Not long after, You Lan and Leng Mei came.

"Niang Niang." You Lan bowed and saluted, "Li Mu doesn't want to leave Beijing."

"From his poems, one can get a glimpse of his temperament. I have not misunderstood him." Qin Mengyao said: "If he loses, I will come forward to protect his life, but his reputation..."

Losing to the Huns under the eyes of everyone is definitely a blow to Li Mu's reputation!
And in this way, it seems that Li Mu can't prove his innocence, and when the time comes, it will be troublesome again.

Qin Mengyao pondered for a while, and said: "Try to find a way to enter Honglu Temple, and find out if Aguda's disappearance is tricky. In addition, investigate the sword demon, and tell Li Mu the result."

"Yes, madam!"

……

After leaving the palace, Li Mu went straight back to the White Horse Temple and bought ten roast ducks on the way so as not to be disturbed by the dolls during his practice.

The White Horse Temple is still closed today.

The little monk Ziwu who guarded the mountain gate saw Li Mu coming back, so he hurriedly took him to see the abbot Huineng.

"Amitabha."

In the meditation room, Hui Neng saw Li Mu returning safely, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "The benefactor has returned safely, and the poor monk is relieved."

"Master is worried, but I have to go to the palace the day after tomorrow." Li Mu told him about the decisive battle.

When Hui Neng heard the words, he immediately said in a low voice: "The poor monk has not entered the palace for a long time, and the poor monk will be there to help out in the martial arts competition in the future!"

Li Mu is determined!

Now Huineng is number one in the dragon and tiger rankings, and his cultivation is definitely above the eleventh level. With him to help out, at least his life is safe!

"Thank you, master!" Li Mu thanked, then took his leave and left.

Back in the other courtyard, the baby was sitting at the entrance of the courtyard, gnawing pig's trotters, her mouth dripping with oil. When she saw Li Mu, she hurriedly rushed forward: "Li Mu, Li Mu, you are finally back~"

As soon as Li Mu left for a long time, she was very worried. She was afraid that Li Mu would really leave her in her 'natal home'. After that, wouldn't she have to chant scriptures every day and eat vegetables every day?

Is that the life of ginseng?

"Stop, stay away from me!" Seeing the oil stains on her body, Li Mu resolutely slapped the doll on the forehead, preventing her from approaching.

The doll waved her hands vigorously, trying to hug Li Mu's thigh, but unfortunately, she couldn't reach it.

"I bought the roast duck for you, sit down honestly!" Li Mu said.

"Oh~" Waowa responded vigorously, then knelt down obediently on the grass, put her two greasy hands on her knees, and looked at Li Mu with big watery eyes, looking forward to it.

Only then did Li Mu take out ten roast ducks, and the baby took them one by one, and happily put them into the precious wooden bowl.

"I'm going to retreat for the next two days, baby, stay outside and don't let anyone disturb me." Li Mu said solemnly, "After this is done, I'll give you ten more roast ducks!"

"Twenty~" The dolls bargained.

"Deal!" After fooling the doll, Li Mu locked himself in the room.

After taking out the blood evil stone, Li Mu began to practice.

……

at the same time.

The news of the decisive battle between Li Mu and the Xiongnu Sword Demon in the Tianyuan Palace also spread at a terrifying speed.

Among them, of course, the help of Mu Wentu, King Chu, King Shu and others is indispensable!

"I thought Meng Yuan would calm down after Aguda disappeared, but unexpectedly, the Huns jumped out again!"

"The sword demon of the Xiongnu is in the same realm as Aguda. Against the sword fairy of Shangshi, there is death but no life!"

"It's hard to say. It is said that the sword demon is one of the three strongest people in the Xiongnu. He is invincible in the same realm. If the Xiongnu did not have the twelve earth evil realms, maybe the sword demon could fight by leaps and bounds! His strength must not be underestimated!"

"I'm afraid that the Houtian Sword Demon will also disappear, so that would be interesting."

"Wait for Shi Jianxian to slay the sword demon, and see how arrogant the Mengyuan Huns are!"

"But the market in the Western Regions is a bit weird!"

"Yeah! It's outrageous! Sword Demon pays [-] for every one, and Shi Jianxian pays [-] for every one! Isn't it clear that you don't like Shi Jianxian?"

"I went to see it just now, and the odds of Shi Jianxian have reached eighteen!"

"Damn it, is the Western Region colluding with the Mongolian Yuan Huns?"

"No, the Western Regions are not fools. If Shi Jianxian really wins, won't they go bankrupt?"

"Don't care so much about him! Anyway, in this decisive battle, I will bet on Shijianxian!"

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

In Qinglong Square, Ji Changqiu and Ji Hui came hand in hand. Both uncle and nephew are in a good mood, especially after hearing the 'high-spirited talk' from the people around them.

As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!
The more people support Li Mu at this moment, the more they will hate Li Mu when Li Mu loses!
That's right, it's hate!

Because most of those who supported Li Mu bought Li Muying from people from the Western Regions, and many even gave away most of their wealth!

When Li Mu lost, one or two of them went bankrupt, how could they not hate Li Mu?
Hahaha……

The uncle and the nephew looked at each other, with the intention of letting go of the past and smiling away all grievances!
Entering the 'tea stand' in the Lion Kingdom, there are exactly two groups of people betting!
"Auntie, why are the odds so high for Mister? Will he lose?" The Nanzhao Princess Bai Sining looked at Li Mu's odds with some puzzlement.

"Maybe it's because the Western Regions don't like Mr." Bai Shu replied.

"But..." Bai Sining recalled the powerful sword force that Li Mu exuded in Qingyou Mountain that day, and said with lingering fear: "I think Mister will win."

"Will Li Mu win? What a big joke!" Princess Toyoda Mikako sneered and stepped forward, forcefully pushed Bai Sining away, and said, "Little girl, this princess advises you to be more sober!"

"My princess? Are you a princess too?" Bai Sining looked at her charming face in surprise.

Bai Shu hurriedly stepped forward, stopped in front of Bai Sining, and introduced her: "Princess, this is the Princess of Ghost Kingdom, Mikako Toyoda!"

"Huh?" Toyoda Mikako glanced at Shi Ning's veil with strange eyes, and then looked at the personal maid and Tomoko behind her.

He Zhizi immediately said softly: "Your Highness, the princess of Nanzhao Kingdom, Bai Sining."

Bai Sining, nine stunning looks?
A look of jealousy flashed in Toyoda Mikako's eyes, and then a charming smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said, "Princess of Nanzhao, hehe, little sister, since you trust Li Mu so much, how dare you gamble with this princess?"

"Gambling?" Bai Sining asked weakly. When she came, her father had repeatedly instructed her not to gamble.

"Just bet on whether your husband can win! How?" Mikako Toyoda said.

"Mister will definitely win!" Bai Sining whispered.

"Then you bet with this princess!" Mikako Toyoda laughed and said, "I heard that you have a magical weapon called fish intestines, why don't you bet on it?"

"I……"

"No princess!" Bai Shu quickly reached out to stop her.

"Presumptuous, you, a maid, dare to intervene when my princess is talking to your princess?" Mikako Toyoda sneered.

"She's not a maid, but my aunt." Bai Sining shouted angrily.

"Who she is has nothing to do with this princess, how about it, as a Nanzhao princess, do you dare to gamble with this princess?" Mikako Toyoda continued agitating.

Bai Sining showed hesitation, she trusted Li Mu very much, but her father also said that she could not gamble.

When she was in a dilemma, Bai Shu said again: "Princess, it's time for us to go back."

"Yeah, okay." Bai Sining finally didn't have to be embarrassed, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Oh, Princess Nanzhao, that's all!" Toyoda Mikako sneered, "Speaking of Nanzhao Linhai, it's possible to sail with my ghost country."

Bai Shu gave her a cold look, and then quickly left with Bai Sining.

"Disappointing!" Toyoda Mikako snorted coldly, then took out a spiritual storage bag, threw it to the red-eyed woman who had been standing respectfully by her side, and said, "Beat the Xiongnu Sword Demon to win!"

"Yes!" The red-eyed woman hurriedly found her subordinates, and ordered her to count the spiritual objects in the spiritual bag, convert them into gold, and exchange them into gambling tickets!

"17 taels of gold, hum." Mikako Toyoda put away the betting tickets, turned and left.

The red-eyed woman sent her out, then turned around and saluted Ji Changqiu and Ji Hui charmingly: "Chixin has seen the two princes!"

"Chixin, how is the business?" Ji Changqiu asked with a smile.

"Thanks to the blessings of the two lords, in just half a day, countless people and monks have come to bet on the Poetry Sword Immortal to win, with a total of 300 million taels of gold!" Chi Xin laughed.

There are a lot of rich people in the imperial capital, especially when the aura is revived, and the value of some spiritual objects has also soared. The countries in the Western Regions will not refuse anyone who comes, and they will all accept them and convert them into gold!

They are not afraid of thunderstorms, because it is absolutely impossible for Li Mu, who is at the fifth level of Earth Shade, to defeat the sword demon at the eleventh level of Earth Shade!

They won't lose any money in this deal, so they keep increasing Li Mu's odds to attract more big-bodied people to end the game!

"300 million taels of gold..." Ji Hui's pupils shrank, how much could it be exchanged for spiritual objects?
Moreover, it's only half a day, and there are still nearly two days before the decisive battle!
At that time, the bet will probably cost tens of millions of taels of gold!

"How dare you forget the kindness of the two lords." Chixin charmingly took out two stacks of warm deeds from her pocket, handed them to them, and said with a smile: "You two lords, I would like to thank you two for this gluttonous feast." As for the princes, therefore, after discussing with the rest of the family, my master decided to donate 20% of the betting money to the two princes, and please don't dislike the two princes."

Ji Changqiu and Ji Hui looked at each other, overjoyed!

"So, I would like to thank your prince." Ji Changqiu took the deed, which was 10% of the share. According to the current betting amount, once Li Mu loses the game, he will get 30 taels of gold!
Of course, if Li Mu wins, he will pay eighteen times the compensation, that is...

Ji Changqiu shook his head, disappointed, what is the purpose of calculating that thing?
Ji Hui's heart was also ups and downs, the hand holding the contract was shaking, but he was very cautious, and asked, "Are there many people holding the sword demon?"

Chi Xin smiled and said: "The Xiongnu and Meng Yuan bet nearly a million taels of gold, and some people in Dagan also bet, but the amount is not large, only tens of thousands of taels of gold, and some small countries in the East China Sea also bet several hundred thousand taels of gold. We in the Western Regions...we are the bankers, so naturally we will not end up."

The island country in the East China Sea is backed by the ocean, but it is rich... Ji Changqiu thought that if he had time, he would go to the East China Sea and search for it!
Then, he looked at Ji Hui with a smile, and said, "Nephew Wang is more cautious!"

"Uncle Wang, be careful sailing like a ten-thousand-year ship!" Ji Hui laughed.

The two looked at each other, then impatiently signed their respective names on the deed, stamped the king's seal, and made two copies, keeping one for themselves and the other for Chi Xin.

In this way, there will be at least 30 taels of gold in the account!
It is really a huge profit to solve Li Mu and earn so much gold!
Looking at the deed, Ji Changqiu couldn't help but smile, and said with a smile, "At first I wanted to play around, but now that the king and nephew have become bankers, it's not a bad idea to break the rules, Ah Hui, let's go."

"Yes, Uncle Wang." Ji Hui followed suit.

The two put away the contract and left with smiles on their faces.

After the two left, many great monks came in one after another, holding spiritual flowers and herbs, betting on Shijianxian!

Half an hour later, a figure walked into the 'tea stand'.

Seeing this, Chi Xin hurriedly bowed down and saluted: "Meet the prince."

"Send it out?" Ayesu, Prince of the Lion King, asked softly.

He looks extremely majestic and mighty, with fluffy hair and a pair of brown pupils, like a prairie lion!
"The deed has been sent out according to the prince's order, but..." Chi Xin looked at Ayesu with some puzzlement, hesitant to speak.

Ayesu seemed to see through what she was thinking, and said with a smile: "After the recovery of spiritual energy, although many caves have been born in the Western Regions, they are still much worse than those in Dagan! If I want to get my hands on Dagan's Paradises, I have to get along with them. The aristocrats who have worked hard to build good relationships! This is one! As for the second, it is naturally to reduce the risk, even if the risk is extremely low."

"The prince is wise!" Chi Xin's eyes glowed, and he looked at the majestic man in front of him with admiration!
Ayesu waved his hand and asked, "Did Master Moro send a message?"

Moro is one of the Eighteen Vajras of the Buddhist Kingdom in the Western Regions, and has a high status. The first time Ayesu entered the Dagan Imperial Capital, he sent someone to contact Moro, but unfortunately there was no reply.

"This seat is here." Suddenly a voice came from the door, Ayesu turned around abruptly, and the person who came was Moluo with blue eyes and hooked nose!

"Master Moro, you have finally appeared!" Ayesu stepped forward respectfully, and handed out a letter, saying, "This is a letter from my father and king."

Moluo didn't accept the letter, and said: "I have received a letter from the Buddha Kingdom, and I will contribute to the tribute from the Lion Kingdom!"

"Thank you Master Moro!" Ayesu bowed slightly, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

……

time flies.

That night, Zhu'er hurried to the White Horse Temple. She was ordered by the Queen to investigate the Sword Demon. After spending half a day, she finally obtained some information from a money-grubbing Hun, and immediately ran to find Li Mu, but ...

"Don't go in~"

Standing outside the door, the baby opened its two chubby hands, and stopped Zhu'er ferociously, and shouted: "Li Mu said, no one can disturb him~"

"Baby, sister Zhu'er can't do it either?" Zhu'er put her hands on her hips, staring at the baby unwilling to be outdone.

"No~" Wawa was very decisive, but after thinking about it, she felt that sister Zhu'er was so generous that she might be able to give her more roast ducks, so she asked, "Then can you give me twenty... thirty roast ducks? "

"I'll buy you forty roast ducks!" Zhu'er resolutely bought.

"Really~" the baby was overjoyed, and said, "You can go in~"

"..." For some reason, Zhu'er couldn't be happy, finally she shook her head, sat down outside the house, and said, "Forget it, it won't be too late for Li Mu to leave the customs."

"Then do I still have my roast duck?" Doll asked nervously.

"Yes." Zhu'er was weak.

"Hahaha." The doll was overjoyed.

Li Mu's twenty ducks, plus sister Zhu'er's forty ducks, there are sixty roast ducks!

Get rich, get rich... the doll is overjoyed.

……

The moon sets and the sun rises.

Soon, the night passed.

Zhu'er has been guarding outside the house, watching the pale sun slowly rise from the horizon to the sky, and then set a little bit towards the west.

Looking at the baby with a roast duck in his left hand and a braised pig's trotter in his right hand, his mouth is full of oil.

Inexplicably, she was also hungry.

Really, Li Mu is too indulgent with dolls, she is still so young, how can she eat big fish and meat?

"Sister Zhu'er, here~" Seeing that Zhu'er has been staring at her braised pig's trotters and roast duck, the baby handed over the half-eaten pig's trotters with some distress.

"Not hungry!" Zhu'er gritted her teeth and turned her head away, stinky baby, you actually gave me what you gnawed, your forty roast ducks are gone!
At this moment, a powerful aura came out from the room and rushed straight into the sky.
