The master comes down the mountain: I don’t want to be a son-in-law

When Li Muchen arrived at the Lakeside Club, Guan Yali had already been waiting at the door to greet him.

"Should I call you Mr. Li now, or Grandmaster Li?" Guan Yali asked with a smile.

"It doesn't matter, you can also call me Xiao Li."

"Oh, I don't dare to do that."

Guan Yali was not sure whether Li Muchen was really calm, didn't care about status, or didn't like to joke, so she quickly put away her smile and carefully accompanied him in.

Li Muchen saw the "Closed" sign at the door of the club and asked, "Closed today?"

"The meeting between two grandmasters is such a grand event, how can anyone disturb it?" Guan Yali said.

Li Muchen nodded and followed Guan Yali upstairs.

She Biqing was sitting in a private room on the second floor drinking tea.

"Old Grandmaster She, I have kept you waiting for a long time." Li Muchen bowed slightly and sat down opposite She Biqing.

Guan Yali sat on one side and made tea for them.

She Biqing stared at Li Muchen for a long time, then suddenly asked: "Your father's surname is Li, and your mother's surname is Gong?"

"Yes." Li Muchen nodded.

"Well, it seems you already know it." She Biqing said.

"My knowledge is very limited, so I would like to ask Senior She to give me some advice."

"Old-timer? Am I that old?"

Li Muchen was stunned, wondering why She Biqing said that. She is indeed quite old. According to her seniority in the martial arts world, it is okay to call her "senior".

Seeing Li Muchen in a daze, She Biqing suddenly laughed: "Your mother and I are like sisters, you should call me aunt."

Li Muchen was surprised and happy, and said quickly: "It turns out to be Aunt She! I...my mother..."

There were so many things he wanted to know that he didn't know where to start.

She Biqing said: "Don't worry, I know what you want to ask. I will tell you everything I know about your mother and the Li family."

Li Muchen didn't speak and listened quietly, waiting for She Biqing to say something.

She Biqing picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Her eyes looked a little hollow, as if she was seeing the distant past through the void.

"I am from the She family of the Miao Village in southern Yunnan, and your mother is from the Gong family. Although the Gong family is not an authentic Miao people, it has always been prestigious in our Miao village. I am older than your mother, but I have the same generation, and the Gong She family We are good friends and we often communicate with each other, so she calls me sister and I call her sister."

"Your mother is a well-known beauty, the most beautiful in the Miao village. There is an endless stream of people coming to Gong's house to propose marriage, but your mother's eyes are too high and no one can look down on her. At that time, she often hid Come to my house. Later, she met your father Li Yunhua and was fascinated by his demeanor. It was love at first sight. But when your father came to propose marriage, the Gong family refused. "

"At that time, no one knew your father's identity. They all thought he was just an ordinary merchant with some money. The Gong family was a big local family, so it was reasonable to refuse. But your mother was very stubborn. For a long time in the future, She was secretly dating your father, but the head of the Gong family discovered her and locked her up, not allowing her to leave the house."

"So your father revealed his identity, had several cartloads of gifts delivered to the village, and formally proposed marriage again. But unexpectedly, the name of the Li family in the capital still did not make the Gong family's hometown take the initiative, and they were still rejected. . Your father, who was Mr. Li back then, got angry and made a big fuss in the Miao village."

Speaking of this, She Biqing smiled on her face, as if she had recalled something funny.

"Your father is really a dandy. He brought the Gong family into a frenzy. Then, he was arrested. Our Miao Village was relatively backward at that time and didn't know much about the law. The Miao people were also martial, so , your father was beaten almost to death, and was locked in a woodshed and starved for several meals. This was because of his identity. If it were someone else, he might have been beaten to death."

"We were very surprised at that time. When the young master from the Li family in the capital came to southern Yunnan, he didn't have many bodyguards around him. Later we found out that he didn't have any bodyguards with him. He was a ghost! He was caught on purpose. He knew that your mother was not He will watch him suffer and will definitely come to save him. By the time your mother rescues him, he has already arranged manpower outside. Not only did he run away, but he also brought your mother back to the capital."

"The Gong family gave chase. But when they arrived in the capital, it was your father's world. In addition, your mother voluntarily stayed in the Li family and refused to return to southern Yunnan. The Gong family had no choice but to recognize this family. But they didn't want to do this. , suffered the disaster of annihilation.”

Li Muchen was shocked when he heard this.

"Aunt She, you mean, the Gong family also..."

She Biqing nodded and said: "Like the Li family, the Gong family also disappeared overnight. The Li family has deep roots and luxuriant leaves. The old patriarch of the Li family has great skills, and he still left a single seedling like you. But the Gong family is really No one is spared. Because the Gong family is in the Miao village and has little contact with the outside world. And I know almost all the people in the Gong family."

Speaking of this, She Biqing's eyes were filled with sadness.

Li Muchen's heart sank.

"Do you know who did it?" he asked.

She Biqing shook her head: "Over the years, I have been secretly investigating, but I have no clue. I can only provide you with some clues from the destruction of the Li family."

Li Muchen nodded and waited for her to continue.

"The destruction of the Li family had a lot to do with your mother." She Biqing paused, pondered for a moment, and asked, "What would you think if your mother was a witch?"

Li Muchen said: "Whether you are a demon or an immortal is just a matter of thought. If you are a demon today, you can become an immortal tomorrow. If you are a Buddha today, who knows if you will become a demon tomorrow."

She Biqing was slightly surprised and said: "It seems that you already know a lot, which is beyond my expectation."

Li Muchen said: "I went to Li's house in the capital and found something."

With that said, he took out the remnant piece of Heavenly Soul and handed it to She Biqing.

When She Biqing saw the broken jade, she was surprised and said: "This is a love token given to your mother by your father!"

Li Muchen nodded.

She Biqing thought intently. After a while, she seemed to understand something and said, "Your mother is indeed a witch. She told me this herself."

She looked at Li Muchen and observed his expression.

"So there are two possibilities for the Li family to be destroyed. One is to be destroyed by the hands of the righteous way, and the other is to be destroyed by the hands of the demon sect. I remember that when I lived in the Li family, there were several people from the Taoist sect who came to the Li family. They say it’s a visit, but actually they’re all here for your mother.”

"Do you know who they are?"

"Wang Chongxian of Baiyun Temple, Zhang Yunpu of Longhu Mountain, Lu Yunlong of Wudang, Immortal Suyun of Emei. What I can be sure of is this one."

Li Muchen frowned.

These people are all Taoist leaders, and only they have the ability to launch an siege against the Li family.

But they are all Taoist masters. Even if they want to eliminate demons and defend Taoism, they will not kill the entire Li family, even the children.

In addition, it is impossible for them to go south at the same time and go to Miao Village to destroy the Gong family.

"Oh, by the way, there is another person your mother once mentioned to me. Yuan Dingyi from Maoshan. Your mother said that this person is very annoying. He even threatened her with her identity and asked her to practice dual cultivation with him. If she didn't From now on, her identity will be made public."
