Me and countless me.

Chapter 329: Yunlong Comes to Confer Gods to Arrange Seats
Li Ke was not sure whether Chen Xizhen's story was based on the novel, but after discussing things with Chen Liqing, Li Ke arranged Chen Liqing to stay in another guest room.

And Chen Xizhen had no intention of leaving. He just stayed at home every day. Except for going to the restaurant and the toilet, Chen Xizhen never came out at all. It seemed that he didn't want to take care of his daughter anymore.

But Chen Xizhen is different.

After resting, she either prepared for archery and horse riding, or accompanied her maid to scout the places for merchants. It can be said that everything was in her mind.

Li Ke's side was also going smoothly. Some brothers came before dawn and said frankly that there were several brothers following behind, who would arrive in the next two days. It can be said that everything was going very smoothly.

only--

"It seems that it was indeed someone in my house who caused trouble."

Liang Zhongshu looked at the servants who were hung and beaten in the courtyard and spoke to Li Ke. Li Ke looked at the servants lying on the ground dying and could not help but frowning.

Today, Liang Zhongshu asked him to come to his house, saying that he wanted help in finding the thief who burned down the warehouse yesterday. However, when Li Ke arrived, he saw Yang Zhi, with his upper body naked, beating the servants and runners in Liang Zhongshu's mansion.

"I'm afraid this is someone else."

Li Ke felt a little bit reluctant to watch this, so he bowed and started to explain to Liang Zhongshu.

"There must be some movement in this mansion, and these servants were brought by you from home, so how could they leak information casually? It must be that the thieves who were stalking outside got the information and did something like this."

He sincerely dissuaded him, even though the laws of the Song Dynasty strictly prohibited taking human life lightly, and there were even honest officials like Bao Zheng, but -

Bao Zheng was just doing what he should do. If the laws of the Song Dynasty were really useful, then how could Bao Zheng be praised so highly?
Therefore, as long as the servants were not beaten to death on the spot, even if they died after returning home that night, it would not be Liang Zhongshu's fault, it would just make his reputation bad.

And if he really wanted these servants to die, he would not use such a vulgar method.

They would whip you, pour cold water on you, and then drive you to a dilapidated house in winter, where the cold wind would blow and you would die naturally. As a servant, could you refuse the residence and work arranged by your master? Or even corporal punishment?
So if Liang Zhongshu really wanted to kill these servants, it would only take a thought.

But Liang Zhongshu disagreed. He did not care about these people's lives at all. In fact, he did not care about Li Ke's life either.

"Hmph, even if they didn't reveal the information on their own initiative, they did so unintentionally, so they should be punished just the same! Besides, I was about to deliver the birthday gift when the thieves showed up right after. Could it be possible that you leaked the information?!"

Liang Zhongshu's face was full of anger, but he did not doubt Li Ke at all, because Li Ke was also the person he chose to escort the birthday gift. If Li Ke really wanted the money from the birthday gift, why would two people go to rob the birthday gift at this time?

Wouldn't it be better to start on the road?

Moreover, the information he knew was that Yang Zhi would set out the day after tomorrow, not this morning, so how could he have come last night!
"This……"

Li Ke chuckled.

"But he is still your servant, Master Zhongshu. It would be bad for your reputation if you criticize him too much. At this moment, the most important thing is to find the thief, isn't it?"

Liang Zhongshu was stunned for a moment, looked Li Ke up and down, then nodded.

"You are right..."

However, Yang Zhi hurried over at this time.

"Absolutely not! Master Zhongshu! What if there really is a thief among these servants?"

He was anxious to find the thief, so how could he let go of such an opportunity! Liang Zhongshu also felt that Yang Zhi's words made sense. After all, what if the thief was really hiding in it?
"What Yang Tixia said is correct, so we still need to torture him severely."

He nodded, very confidently, and Li Ke spoke again.

"Do you know the story of Sima Yao? How can you treat the people around you harshly? A son of a wealthy family should not sit in the hall."

Sima Yao was killed by his concubine because of a joke, but Li Ke used it to remind Liang Zhongshu not to be too harsh on the people around him.

Liang Zhongshu's body trembled after hearing this. He immediately thought that he would be hated by his servants for treating them so harshly. He suddenly started to speak.

"Then let them go. After all, we still haven't figured out what happened."

But seeing that Liang Zhongshu had changed his mind again, Yang Zhi became anxious again.

"But if there really is a thief hiding among them, wouldn't Liang Zhongshu be in even greater danger?!"

Liang Zhongshu nodded subconsciously and looked at Li Ke.

"Yes, then wouldn't I be in even greater danger? What Li Tixia and Yang Tixia said makes sense!"

Li Ke was speechless. Could it be that the policy that Liang Zhongshu would adopt was to see who would give him the final admonition? So he spoke immediately.

"But if we punish the majority of innocent people just for the sake of one or two possible thieves, wouldn't that increase the possibility of thieves?"

Liang Zhongshu looked as if he had suddenly realized something and nodded repeatedly.

"That's right, that's right, Yang Tixia, Li Tixia is right!"

Yang Zhi was so angry that his three corpse gods jumped up and down, his five spirits were full of heroic spirit, fire was coming out of his two temples, smoke was coming out of his seven orifices, and he almost wanted to tear Li Ke to pieces alive!

"What if a thief sneaks up on Liang Zhongshu at night and hurts him?"

He asked sternly, and Liang Zhongshu subconsciously grabbed Li Ke's sleeve and nodded frantically at Li Ke.

"Yes, Li Tixia, Yang Tixia is right!"

But the moment he said this, Liang Zhongshu quickly realized that he was being held hostage by two warriors, so he immediately straightened his back, coughed twice, and then looked at the two men.

"How about this, Yang Tixia will stay by my side for the time being and help me reorganize the gold and silver. As for Li Tixia..."

Liang Zhongshu looked at Li Ke, thought for a moment, and then spoke.

"You recruit a group of people from your old subordinates in your own name. I will give you a militia group and recruit a group of elites who dare to fight. After all, these bandits are probably here to scout the area. If we don't deal with them properly, I'm afraid that some refugees and mountain bandits will take advantage of the situation to cause chaos. By the way, we will also wipe out the bandits who entered the city to cause chaos and burn houses, so as to prevent fires in other places."

After a pause, Liang Zhongshu raised his hand, and two servants immediately brought two boxes and opened them in front of Li Ke and Yang Zhi. "You two take one box each. Once you have done this, I will recommend you two to my father-in-law."

Li Ke took a look and saw that it was filled with gold and silver coins, which could be said to be quite sincere.

"As for food and fodder, you can use them as you like in my shop, but remember, no more than a hundred people are allowed, and they must be reliable!"

The more he looked at Li Ke, the more he liked him. Li Ke's previous consideration of his safety also made him feel that Li Ke had the mindset of a Hokage...

No, it's the general's thinking.

"Thank you for your generous words, Secretary Zhongshu!"

Li Ke was overjoyed. The money Liang Zhongshu gave him was just in time! With the money from Liang Zhongshu, he could buy more military supplies and use it to rob Liang Zhongshu's birthday gift. So for the plan of robbing Liang Zhongshu's birthday gift, the money from Liang Zhongshu was just in time!
Liang Zhongshu is really generous!

Li Ke is worried about money and food!

But Yang Zhi on the side jumped out again. He looked at Li Ke who was happy because of the gold and silver, and suddenly felt contempt. Then he did not take the gold and silver, but just bowed to Liang Zhongshu!
"I just want to serve my country. I don't need this money!"

Liang Zhongshu was stunned for a moment. Looking at Yang Zhi, he felt that this man must have something wrong with his brain. But looking at Li Ke's smile, no matter how he looked at it, Liang Zhongshu felt that Li Ke was smiling awkwardly.

So he thought about it a little, then smiled and spread his hands.

"Tixia Yang is such a noble character, he is truly a role model for our generation."

He was also relieved. It seemed that Yang Zhi and Li Ke were bound to be enemies, so he would be comfortable in the middle!
Li Ke also felt that Yang Zhi was simply the best supporting actor, and he felt a little embarrassed to have cheated him on the birthday gift matter.

So he bowed and said goodbye to Liang Zhongshu.

"Thank you, Master Zhongshu. I will get to work right away!"

He also needs to show some enthusiasm!

Thinking this, Li Ke quickly rushed towards his shop, but just as he passed an alley, a voice appeared behind him.

"You thief, you really did something great! I will catch you and take you to the Secretary-General to claim your reward!"

As he was speaking, a Taoist priest came out with a sword on his back and a whisk in his hand. Li Ke was startled and reached for the Taia sword and answered.

"Master, you are joking. I am not talented, but I am a good citizen of the Song Dynasty. How could I do such a heinous thing? If I really want to do it, I will just give you some of the money for the incense."

He did not sense any murderous aura from the Taoist priest, and based on his words and appearance, Li Ke roughly guessed what the other party was here for, so he went through the formalities.

Gongsun Sheng was shocked, knowing that Li Ke had seen through his purpose, so he stopped trying to hide it and directly introduced himself and stated the purpose of his visit.

"Hahaha! Li Erlang is indeed worthy of his reputation. I am Ruyunlong Gongsun Sheng, and I have come here specially to seek refuge with him and to tell Erlang about this God-given opportunity!"

The moment Li Ke heard the name Gongsun Sheng, he thought of gods and monsters, and when he thought of gods and monsters, he thought of the Investiture of the Gods that he had accidentally obtained. The next moment, a golden scroll suddenly appeared in front of him and unfolded. Then, in an instant, several names appeared on the originally blank Investiture of the Gods!

At this time, Gongsun Sheng seemed to have seen something. His whole body shook and he almost fell to the ground. However, Li Ke's attention was attracted by the sudden appearance of the List of Gods, so he did not notice it.

However, Li Ke did not go directly to read the List of Gods. He wanted to welcome Gongsun Sheng to the hotel and talk slowly. However, he did not expect that Gongsun Sheng seemed to be very anxious. He bowed to him and hurriedly told him the purpose of his visit.

"Brother Li, you don't know. When I came here, I observed the weather. A heavy fog will fall in seven days. You and I can rob the birthday gift at that time and use it to save the world! I know you won't believe me for now. I, Gongsun Sheng, will come again in six days. If the heavy fog comes as expected by then, I hope you will count me in."

After saying this, Gongsun Sheng bowed to Li Ke again and left in a hurry. Li Ke wanted to keep him, but Gongsun Sheng disappeared around a corner.

Li Ke glanced at the ground beneath his feet and knew that Gongsun Sheng had used the earth escape technique to hide underground. However, this guy was obviously not very skilled. Although he had learned the earth escape technique, he could not walk underground. He was holding his breath and waiting for him to leave!
During the time he was observing, the air in Gongsun Sheng's lungs had been almost used up. Not only was his face flushed, but his body was also shaking. If he didn't leave, he would either faint on the ground or have to jump out again.

"Is it worth it just to look like a master?"

Since Gongsun Sheng wanted the image of a master, just give it to him. So Li Ke shook his head and went back to the hotel. Because Zhang Yinglei had not come back yet, he returned to his room to look at the Investiture of the Gods which had suddenly appeared again.

Li Ke almost laughed out loud after taking a quick glance at the list, because the first person on the Conferred God List was not Zhang Yinglei, nor anyone else, but Liang Zhongshu, who was just talking to him, Liang Shijie! And his name was also very interesting.

The Star from Heaven - Liang Shijie.

Then there are several people that Li Ke has come into contact with during this period:
Tianjuanxing·Yang Zhi.

The Guardian Star of Heaven - Zhang Yinglei.

Tianlixing·Yun Ge.

Tianyi Star·Yun Dalang.

Tianyue Star Chen Xizhen.

Tianluan Star - Chen Liqing.

The scumbag Ximen Qing.

Tianfuxing·Mengyulou.

Tianshixing·Gongsun Sheng.

"Huh? Why is the ranking of the Conferred God List the same as the ranking of the Liangshan heroes? And why is someone like Ximen Qing also on the list?"

Li Ke was confused, and at the moment of doubt, the name of the scum star Ximen Qing disappeared from the List of Gods, never to be seen again!

"Oh? Interesting..."

Seeing this scene, Li Ke immediately thought about changing Liang Zhongshu's title of Tiansongxing to "Transportation Captain". And sure enough, on the List of Gods, the original title of Tiansongxing was changed to "Transportation Captain"!

But soon, the words "transport captain" began to change, becoming "Heavenly Court's Chief Money and Grain Transporter". But it was vague that if Li Ke insisted on the position of transport captain, he would not become the Heavenly Court's Chief Money and Grain Transporter!
Moreover, Li Ke had a feeling that a little bit of Liang Zhongshu's true spirit had been placed on this list of gods. As long as the other party died, he would be able to be listed as a god and become the "Heavenly Court Money and Grain Transport Envoy" on this list of gods! Or a new god position he set up!
Li Ke was shocked to realize that the Investiture of the Gods in his hand was actually the real thing! It was not a joke to him!
This stuff is real!

He can really be deified!
