Chapter 8 This day has been too exciting

Li Yuan fell asleep depressedly with the big bag on his head. Li Luoli Lin Ruoxi also went back to find her master. Li Mu sat alone under the grafted fruit tree at the entrance of the yard, staring silently at the dazzling starry sky above his head.

Since coming to this world, Li Muyun’s favorite thing is to look up at the starry sky. Only the countless eternal stars in the sky can make him forget all the past.

But this time he failed. The little stars not only failed to make him forget his worries, but also made him unable to calm down.

The peaceful days were broken with the arrival of the old man and could never return to the past, just as if a perfect mirror could not be completely restored after it was broken.

But who is the old man? What is the purpose of coming to Shanyin County?

The three guards who followed him; the humble appearance of the lord in the county town; the seven or eight pairs of eyes in the darkness around the yard..., everything shows the extraordinary background of the old man.

The old man's neatly trimmed nails; his waist and back were straight when walking; his eating and chewing slowly; and even the valuable jade plaque given to Lin Ruoxi... This also shows the honor of the old man's identity.

After all, an ordinary citizen will not pay so much attention to it. Only those legendary nobles will have all kinds of "stinky problems".

Out of his professional habits in his previous life, Li Muyun kept thinking.

But he knew too little about this world. The Tang Dynasty was a mystery to him. With a little bit of history books in the world he was familiar with, he could not make accurate judgments at all.

Should I go out and grab a "eye" in the dark and ask?

Such thoughts flashed through Li Muyun's mind, but they were quickly denied.

The old man would never have come to Shanyin County because of him a poor boy, so there is no need for him to alert the old man to explore the old man's purpose.

Otherwise, I'd better continue to pretend. Anyway, as long as I don't let myself kill again, as for that old man, I have nothing to do anyway, so I'll just play with him.

After making a decision, Li Muyun felt much more relaxed, and the stars in the sky seemed to be brighter, and his chaotic mood returned to calm again... It was time to go back and rest.

...

"How is it? Have you found something?" Just as Li Muyun got up and walked back to the simple thatched hut, not far from his home, he gathered with Li Yuan's three guards during the day. The leader of the group lowered his voice and asked a guy who had just rushed back.

A voice in the dark said, "Li Muyun, now 18 years old, hunts and chops wood for a living; his father Li Huaichen is a blacksmith; his mother Sun is a peasant wife; his family moved here from Youzhou 17 years ago, but Li Huaichen and Sun died four years ago. The cause of death was a Turkic man who could not hide from the grass-grass valley."

"That's how this person's life experience is considered innocent."

"It's hard to say. People's hearts are separated from their belly, so they should never be confused by appearances."

"What should I do? The Supreme Emperor refused to leave and insisted on following the boy. We can't use force."

"Continue to follow and find a way to keep an eye on that boy." The leader waved his hand to end the discussion, with a hint of firmness in the darkness: "Tomorrow I will find a way to get along with the Supreme Emperor. Wu Lun cannot let the Supreme Emperor be alone with the boy, otherwise if something happens, none of us will be able to withstand it."

"Ada, why don't I go, you can preside over something outside."

"No, I'll just go there. It's not just a poor boy. If you can't do it, you'll just kill him." The person in charge said calmly, as if he was talking about killing a chicken, not a person.

However, the three of them didn't know that just as they were discussing all this, on a tree not far from them, a black figure was peeping at them, listening to all their conversations without saying a word, and finally a disdainful curve was pulled out from the corner of their mouths.

...

Wang Dalong (played by Han Feng, the author’s true friend), the mysterious man in Li Muyun’s mouth, is also Lin Ruoxi’s master.

No one in the whole village knows where he comes from, he only knows that he moved in more than 20 years ago, and he has never left the village since he moved in. No, it should be said that he has never left his yard.

No one knows what he is called, nor does anyone know what he lives on. Except for a group of human traffickers passing by three years ago, when a girl named Lin Ruoxi was added to his family, the villagers' knowledge of him was limited to being rich!

But is Wang Dalong really that simple? Of course not!

How could a simple person not leave the room for more than 20 years?

How could a simple person live so freely after everyone knows that he is rich?

How could a simple person get close to three Li Yuan’s trusted guards so close to them without being discovered?

The three Li Yuan's guards were still military people and did not know some things in the world. They were used to being rampant in Chang'an. When they came to a remote small place like Shanyin County, they naturally felt superior.

And it is this feeling of being superior to others that makes them passive everywhere.

They did not know that their whereabouts had been discovered long ago, and Li Yuan's identity was also exposed from them.

If Wang Dalong hadn't wanted to cause trouble and had no confidence in that guy Li Muyun, he would probably have separated his body and turned into a wisp of wronged soul in the underworld.

...

The next day, just as the sky was dawn, the gate of Li Muyun's house was shot and made a "slap" sound. A ragged man stood at the door, looking inside with his head protruding his head.

"Who? I knocked on the door early in the morning, I want to die! Get out of here!" After a burst of impatient scolding, a black thing broke out from the window and slapped on the ground with a 'bang' sound, and then Li Muyun screamed heart-wrenchingly: "Oh my dear father, we have just a lamp!"

"Bah, you are a terrible thing. You want to be a bandit like this. You can't bear to be a broken light, and you're still a bandit!"

"Dad, ancestor, please keep your word. We haven't gone up the mountain yet. If you shout like this, you will attract the officers and soldiers in a while!"

"So what if the officers and soldiers come? I want to see if I am here, who dares to arrest you!"

Old Li Yuan said this, but it was not the case in the ears of the people who were slamming the door outside. The heads of the three people disguised as beggars only felt that the sky was about to collapse.
