Chapter 103 Gambling(1/2)

1.

Three days later, the appointment at Yanyu Pavilion.

I wonder how Zhuge Muyun and Li Mocan discussed it. Will they agree to our request and surrender to the yamen to resolve this martial arts crisis?

Li Xiaoqian's answer is, definitely not.

I asked, what should they do if they don’t surrender?

Li Xiaoqian only said that he didn't know, so he could only take one step at a time.

This step is finally here.

In the misty pavilion at midnight, everything is silent. There are deep and terrifying dense jungles around it, connected to the night in the middle of the night, and there is no limit to the sight. It seems that even insects, birds and beasts are afraid of such an environment and dare not make any sound.

Because Lu You did not return home that night, he was punished by Lu's mother and was confiscated at home to recite the family law and was not allowed to go out.

In desperation, Li Xiaoqian and I had to come alone.

Such an environment, especially at such a time, really makes me feel creepy.

I was worried and said, "Will Li Mocan and Zhuge Muyun kill us?"

Li Xiaoqian nodded and said, "It may be."

I was even more scared and said, "We might as well go back."

Li Xiaoqian immediately replied: "I think so too."

"Since you're here, why do you want to go back?"

Just as we were about to turn around, suddenly a sharp man's voice came from somewhere unknown.

I shivered suddenly and asked in a trembling voice: "Who is it?"

A tall figure slowly walked out in the darkness. When he walked up to him, the moonlight illuminated his body. This was a thin man with a protruding cheekbones on his face, a tall forehead, a goatee, and his eyes were cold and bright.

"I'm the one you're looking for." His voice was sharp, and there was a sarcastic smell in his tone.

I asked: "You, are you Li Mocan?"

"No," he said, "You are the leader of Alliance Ji."

After he said this, I suddenly felt that I was much more imposing. After all, he still recognized me as the leader of the martial arts world.

I plucked up my courage and said, "How are you thinking about what the leader of the alliance told you?"

Li Mocan smiled and said, "I didn't think about it at all."

I asked, "Why?"

Li Mocan said: "Because I wouldn't agree at all."

As Li Xiaoqian guessed, they would not agree to surrender.

I glanced at Li Xiaoqian, and he shook his head helplessly. I asked, "Where is Zhuge Muyun? Does she agree?"

"I only listen to the old ghost." Zhuge Muyun's voice came from the darkness. I looked in the sound and saw that Zhuge Muyun was still wearing the green clothes that day, but his wet hair became dry and soft, and he tied it up neatly, and inserted two fluorescent hairpins. When she came over, she glared at Li Xiaoqian coldly, which scared Li Xiaoqian so much that he hurriedly hid under my skills, swayed his legs, and acted like he was about to escape.

Zhuge Muyun smiled and said, "You don't have to run away. The rules of our Canyun Club can only accept posts and kill people. Without posts, we will not kill people."

Li Xiaoqian breathed a long sigh, but heard Zhuge Muyun say again: "But, you can get rid of people!"

Li Xiaoqian hid behind me again, pretended to be a Shaolin light skill, and was always ready to escape, which made Zhuge Muyun laugh.

Li Xiaoqian said: "If you just disagree, then you won't come. Since you are here, you must have other plans, so say it out!"

Li Mocan said: "Smart! We have some plans and want to discuss with Alliance Leader Ji."

I asked, "What are the plans?"

Li Mocan and Zhuge Muyun looked at each other and said, "I heard that the leader of the alliance is a life-saving grace to the emperor. Therefore, I want to ask the leader to help us seek personal favors in front of the emperor. We can disband the Canyun Association and hide in the world from now on. I hope the emperor can issue an order to release us and all major sects."

They said it very lightly, but I felt that it must be very difficult to do it. I said, "Actually, I didn't save the emperor's life, I just helped him accidentally. He might not have given me such a favor."

Li Mocan said: "So, is the leader unwilling to help us?"

I said, "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's that I really can't help you."

Zhuge Muyun said: "Is the leader of the alliance insisting on throwing us two to the court?"

They asked one after another, and I really didn't know what to do. What I originally discussed was to ask them to surrender to the court, but I didn't expect that they would put forward various conditions at Yanyu Pavilion today. I was troubled by them and said, "If you want to surrender, you will surrender. Even if you don't surrender, you will not participate in this matter at worst!"

Li Xiaoqian pulled my sleeves repeatedly, as if he was hinting at me. I looked back at him several times, but he didn't speak. I was even more upset and said, "If you have anything, just say, don't pull it!"

Li Mocan said: "It seems that it is meaningless to continue talking. But we don't want to see the major sects beset by us. For the sake of the current plan, we have to aggrieved the leader."

I was stunned and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Zhuge Muyun said: "I don't do anything, I just want to take a dangerous move and try your weight in the emperor's heart."

As soon as she finished speaking, I felt my eyes lit up, and then a cool feeling came from my neck. My heart trembled, but I saw her pressing against my neck with a short knife.

Li Xiaoqian shouted: "Stop! Stop!"

Zhuge Muyun looked at Li Xiaoqian in confusion and said, "What? Why are you in a hurry? I won't kill him?"

Li Xiaoqian said: "If you kidnap him, not only will you not be able to save the major sects, but you will give the court more excuses and start dealing with matters in the world."

I didn't dare to move, and just said in a hurry: "Yes, yes, he said it very well!"

Zhuge Muyun hesitated a little, I felt that the short knife was on my neck

It slid half an inch down quietly.

"Don't listen to him!" Li Mocan screamed, "How could he know if you haven't tried it? Do you really have to let us bow our heads to the court before we can give up?"

Li Xiaoqian said: "Although the two are killers, they are also considered kindness and righteousness. Are you really willing to bet on the fate of the world?"

Li Mocan and Zhuge Muyun looked at each other, and their faces showed a look of hesitation.

I seized the opportunity and said, "You can't bet! If you lose the bet, you'll be finished!"

As soon as I said this, Zhuge Muyun put away the short knife. He looked at Li Mocan with soft eyes and said in despair: "Old ghost, don't struggle anymore, let's go. Although Senior Brother Guan didn't say it, I have heard recently that he has had a conflict with the court. If this continues, it will be a disaster to the master."

Li Mocan lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly.

Zhuge Muyun said again: "I have no regrets when I killed that dog prefect. We are not wrong. What is wrong is that this world cannot tolerate people like us."

Li Mocan, who had been silent, suddenly burst out after hearing Zhuge Muyun's words. He shouted in his sharp voice: "I can't tolerate it? What can't tolerate it! We are just collecting money except for a dog official. Compared with those dog thieves who sit high in the court to frame loyal and kindness and take human lives, what are we here?"

Zhuge Muyun's eyes flashed with light and she shouted with a sob: "Old ghost!"

Li Mocan suddenly raised his head and showed an extremely fierce look: "Best we can kill that foolish monarch. The world is so big that I, Can Yun, cannot take down the head!"

They actually wanted to kill the emperor with shameless words!

"hehe……"

I just found it funny, and couldn't help laughing out loud for a moment.

Li Xiaoqian roared in a low voice: "Why are you laughing at? You're crazy!"

Li Mocan stared at me fiercely, and my fierce look made me stand all over my hair. Li Mocan said, "Why are you laughing at?"

I said, "The palace is very vigilant, and there are many master guards. How can you kill the emperor?!"

Li Mocan said: "As long as it is a head that grows on the neck, there is nothing that cannot be taken down! Do you want to try it?"

Looking at Li Mo's cruel gaze, I subconsciously touched my neck, and suddenly felt that my head, which had been firmly stuck on my neck for nearly twenty years, seemed to become less reliable at this moment.

Li Xiaoqian suddenly jumped out and said, "Let's make a bet!"

Li Mocan was stunned and asked, "What bet?"

Li Xiaoqian said: "Since you are so conceited, there is no head in the world that cannot be taken down. It would be better for us to agree that two people will give you two murder letters in two days. As long as one of you is finished, my brother..." He patted my shoulder and continued: "I will enter the palace in person to meet the emperor and plead for you!"

Li Mocan and Zhuge Muyun's eyes showed excitement and asked at the same time: "This is true."

?!"

I quietly glanced at Li Xiaoqian, and he blinked at me hard. I understood it and said, "Take it seriously!"

Li Mocan said excitedly: "Okay, in order to avoid the eyes and ears of the court, I will not live together. She is in Jingxin Temple and I am in Shifo Temple in the south of the city. At that time, please send the murder letter to us separately."

Li Xiaoqian said: "Okay! In two days, I will send the murder letter to your residence. Our bet is limited to ten days! If you win, we will do our best. No matter what the result is, we will definitely protect it in front of the emperor. But if you lose..."

I said, "Yes! What if you lose?!"

Li Mocan hesitated for a moment, clasped his fists and said, "If we lose, we will take the evidence of assassinating the prefect of Shaoxing and surrender to the yamen!"

Li Xiaoqian grabbed my hand, raised it high, and said, "Come on! It's a pledge to swear! If you breach the agreement, you won't die well!"

"Pa, Pa, Pa, Pa" three crisp sounds, Li Mo's thin palm hit my palm three times in a row.

2.

When I returned to Lu Mansion, the sky was already lit up.

When I arrived in front of Lu You's study, the lights swayed, and his figure walked back and forth under the lights.

Pushing open the door of Lu You's study, he saw that we were worried and rushed up to ask: "How is it? Are you okay?"

I remembered that I was almost kidnapped on Yanyu Pavilion, and then I almost slashed my head by Li Mocan. Now I am back safely. I suddenly felt sore in my nose and hugged Lu You and sobbed: "It's so scary!"
