Chapter Fifty-Three Miracles

Seeing the people receiving the food and leaving the tunnel with gratitude, Li Siwen was somewhat depressed. He thought that at least half of the people could be the same as his thoughts. Foreign enemies were ahead, and they would not give up any inch of land and sacrifice themselves to the city... But the fact is that almost all the people took the food and left, leaving only eight people, including him and Li Mu. The other six people, one was his chef, the other was Bai Gensheng, and the other four were bachelors. They were killed by the Turks a few years ago, and they were left to take revenge.

"You bastard, can you leave? If you don't leave, you won't have my father!"

At the entrance of the secret passage, Bai Naoer grabbed Bai Gensheng's hand and sweared. Bai Gensheng broke free and said, "Dad, I'm so old, I can't listen to you in everything. I don't want to be a person like you. This time I decided by myself. You should leave quickly. My brother-in-law won't give you money. If you return to Mayi and return to your old career, or go to Chang'an to find your sister, you can deal with it in the rest of your life. I will definitely not leave."

Bai Naoer cried and said, "Your sister looks down on me, you look down on me, what do you think of me, but I am sorry for you, everyone is a rebellious son. Yes, even if you don't care about me, do you care about your mother? Think about your mother?"

"The child has thought about it." Bai Gensheng looked at his mother and said, "Mom, I don't want to be a commoner for the rest of my life, nor do I want to be a minor official with my brother-in-law's protection. I want to make a future for myself. If I can survive this time, I will definitely get a minor official to do it. Don't worry, the child will definitely survive!"

"That's a Turkic man. How can you live if you are a young man and a half..."

"Dad, the time is almost over. When the Turkic people enter the city later, you can't even leave if you want to leave!" Bai Gensheng held back his tears, pushed Bai Naoer, pushed him into the secret passage, raised his hand and grabbed the iron ring, twisted counterclockwise, and the door of the secret passage was closed.

After coming out of the cellar, Bai Gensheng wiped away his tears and stood silently beside Li Mu. Li Mu looked at him and said, "I didn't expect that you are not very ambitious."

Bai Gensheng looked up at him and said, "I think you won't do anything to die. Although I don't know what you think, it should be fine to follow you."

Li Mu laughed silently. He didn't know much about Bai Gensheng before, but after contacting these days, he found that this boy was a little stupid, but he knew it in his heart and was still a talent. Li Mu leaned over to Bai Gensheng's ear and whispered: "If something is wrong later, look at my eyes and knock the county magistrate unconscious."

"Ah?" Bai Gensheng was stunned and said, "Why do you want to knock the county magistrate unconscious?"

"Stupid, of course I'm running away! I'm sick, I'm still here even though I know I'm dead?"

Bai Gensheng was stunned. Li Mu's image collapsed in his heart in an instant. He always thought that Li Mu had a strange plan, but he didn't expect that it was such a strange plan. He felt complicated for a moment and could not speak.

On the other side, Li Siwen was cheering others: "I feel warm in my heart if you can accompany me to the righteousness of the people! There is no hope of repaying this life. In the next life, I will be rewarded with you, I..."

Li Mu interrupted his sensationality and said, "What are you talking about in the next life? This life is not over yet. Come with me, let's find a place to hide!"

"Hide?" Li Siwen frowned: "I am about to fight the Turks to the death, why should I hide? I won't hide!"

"There are some tricks of military tactics, and we can win with a good match. Now we are weak, and fighting hard is equivalent to seeking death. Since we stay, we have to make some noise. Listen to me, even if we can't win, we can still make the Turks hurt!" Li Mu added in his heart: "Maybe we can still gain some unexpected results."

Li Mu was indeed for the "unexpected gain", otherwise he would knock Li Siwen out and run with the people. This unexpected gain is naturally the "National Jade Seal". If he could find the National Jade Seal through Princess Yicheng's hands and find a way to get it, even if Li Shimin cheated and did not admit his father's notice and did not give him a title to the marquis, he would be rewarded. With this contribution, he would have more guarantees when he gained a foothold in Chang'an.

At this moment, Li Siwen was left with a sacrificial city. When he heard Li Mu say that it would make the Turks hurt, he thought it would be good. If it could cause damage to the Turks, it would be a good reputation for fighting and death in the future. He nodded immediately and agreed, and all eight people followed Li Mu's orders.

Li Mu first took people to the shop in the west of Nanjie Street and brought out all the wine. Everyone carried two jars on their backs. Li Siwen was puzzled and asked, "What did you ask us to move wine? Are you planning to be a drunkard?"

"Fart!" After provoking the fact that Li Siwen was born in the twelfth lunar month, Li Mu's respect for Li Siwen plummeted, and Li Siwen was not annoyed. Anyway, everyone was going to die, so what did it matter whether he respected or not? Moreover, he also felt apologized in his heart.

"My wine has a characteristic, it will burn when it encounters fire." Li Mu pulled off a piece of cloth from his body, soaked it in the jar, took out a little fire twister, and the flames suddenly jumped up, scaring everyone backing. Li Mu stepped on the fire and said, "Let's find a place to hide later, see where the Turks come in, wherever he comes in, we will ignite wherever he comes in, and there will be a big fire to burn the city. Everyone will die together, and no one can think of living!"

Li Siwen was startled by Li Mu's vicious expression and murmured: "Then isn't this city destroyed?"

Li Mu glared and said, "I don't know how many secret passages there are. I have to worry about whether someone will sneak in when I sleep. What's the use of such a city? Besides, my life is gone. You can't bear to leave this and that, otherwise you can commit suicide now and save trouble!"

Li Siwen hurriedly said, "I just said that, everything you said is right. Let's order it and die together!"

Li Mu winked at Bai Gensheng. Bai Gensheng understood and hid a stick in his sleeve, followed closely behind Li Siwen.

After finding the fire items, Li Mu arranged the hiding point for each person. Whenever he arranged a person, he would give Li Siwen a few instructions on his back. In fact, it was nothing. After igniting the fire, he ran to the secret passage and escaped from the secret passage. Don’t really sacrifice his life to the city. After the explanation, Li Mu, Li Siwen and Bai Gensheng hid on the roof of the yamen. This place was originally the place where Jie Li Khan was, and Princess Yicheng also lived here. Li Mu judged that the imperial seal would be hidden here. But there was no time to find it. Li Mu decided to wait here, waiting for Princess Yicheng to get it, waiting for the opportunity to snatch it.

Everything was silent, and there was no sound in the city, like a dead city.
