Beauty Steals the Country [End Times]

The closed door unexpectedly hit Jiang Qi's toes and the bridge of the nose, and one could guess Mu Xishan's anger just from the pain in his body.Fragmentary pictures flashed in my mind, it seemed that a similar situation had happened to Mu Xishan.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Qi left from the door of Muxi Mountain. It was quiet in the middle of the night, and the distance was only ten meters. The icy temperature gradually calmed down the turbulent emotions.

Jiang Qi believes that his nature should never be so mean, but the words just now did come out of his mouth... This kind of doubt and entanglement made him remember the last one in Muxi Mountain before he fell into a deep sleep. expression--

Filled with apathetic rage.

Therefore, the next morning, after Jiang Qi got up, he was not surprised to see Mu Xishan walking past him without seeing him.

This is the first day of "Death Delayed".Gao Shen's deception is easy to crack, but the purpose of feigning death is to dig out the secrets of the ore, and at the same time find Gao Shen's weakness, and use this weight to uproot the cancer. Before that, it is best to stay still.

When Gao Shen went to visit Su Yun in the morning, he walked through the front yard, and suddenly saw a familiar figure from the back. Gao Shen was startled, and saw the person whose back was facing him slowly turn around. There were no acne or scars on the unfamiliar face. Come on, nodded at him, and walked towards him.

Gao Shen felt relieved, and rushed to greet the person politely, "May I ask who you are?"

Mu Xishan stretched out his hand as kindly as possible, "It's the first time we meet, I am the new secretary of City Lord Jiang, and this time I specially follow the City Lord to visit the third young master."

"You said... City Lord Jiang is here?" Gao Shen was startled again, with a bad premonition in his heart, but he greeted him respectfully: "You should have notified us in advance, you didn't go to greet City Lord Jiang in person, it's simply our s base Sorry!"

Mu Xishan didn't rush to explain, but looked down at the outstretched hand. Gao Shen realized his impoliteness, and quickly reached out. At this moment, Jiang Qi inserted between the two, blocking Mu Xishan with his body, and pressed down Mu Xishan's hand with his right hand. , with his left hand holding Gao Cang, the whole movement is smooth and smooth.

Gao Shen was taken aback by Jiang Qi's hand, with a flattered expression on his face.

Jiang Qi said at this time: "I heard that the city lord of your s base has just passed away. Thinking that the city must be in great grief, I don't have the heart to disturb you. I visited quietly, so I didn't cause you any trouble."

Hearing Jiang Qi mention the deceased city lord, Gao Shen's expression froze for a moment, and then he declined as usual, "No trouble, no trouble."

Jiang Qi nodded and said, "Go and do your work."

When Gao Shen left, Mu Xishan, who had been silent for a long time, shook off Jiang Qi's hand that was still on the back of his hand with a cold face, and said displeasedly, "Why are you here?"

"Look at how my 'new secretary' deliberately approached a mediocre-looking man?" Jiang Qi said in a slightly sarcastic tone, and Mu Xishan felt his breath stuck in his chest for a moment, and couldn't understand how someone could put people's annoying skills So casually.

Mu Xishan's chest rose and fell for a few moments, he let out a breath slowly, and said in a low voice: "If you really hate me so much, you can expose my identity and don't need to be sarcastic." Then he turned and left with a cold face.

Jiang Qi watched Mu Xishan leave, and said slowly behind him: "It's not urgent, I haven't appreciated enough of your ugly appearance in my name, how can I let you go so easily."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Qi turned his head and saw Jiang Feng, who was standing on the sidelines not far away at some point, looking at him expressionlessly.Jiang Qi also realized his gaffe, and walked towards Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng asked Jiang Qi in an incomprehensible tone, "Brother...why do you use this tone to mock him?"

Jiang Qi didn't answer Jiang Feng, but asked another question that pointed to the center: "How long have you been standing here?"

After years of cultivating the habit of obeying his elder brother, Jiang Feng didn't have the consciousness to avoid this topic. Instead, his expression froze and he lowered his head in silence for a while before explaining, "That person just now was the mastermind behind the design of the city lord. I didn't intend to watch It was only when the city lord and Gao Cann collided that he secretly protected the city lord."

"Unintentional?" Jiang Qi was noncommittal about this, thinking of the impulse just now, he said to Jiang Feng: "You will spread the news about my visit to base S in a while."

"Brother, do you want to..." Jiang Feng looked at Jiang Qi in surprise, Jiang Qi nodded without explaining too much, and there is no need to explain, because Jiang Feng saw from Jiang Qi's attitude that Jiang Qi wanted to help Mu Xishan resolved this conspiracy, Jiang Qi was willing to do so, and his attitude towards Mu Xishan was no longer important.

After Mu Xishan left, he went straight out of the mansion and walked to the street.

It should have been a vibrant morning, but the base was shrouded in haze.He was originally worried that the improvement of his appearance would attract too much attention, which would not be conducive to lurking. Who would have thought that pedestrians would have a heavy complexion and walk in a hurry, and they would not even stay on his face from the corner of their eyes.Even the bustling city is not as noisy as before. When passing by the living market, Mu Xishan heard those residents who were shopping for vegetables discussing his affairs:

"You said that if the city lord is changed, the previous decree will be cancelled?"

"Is it inevitable? I don't think there is another person in this world who is as courageous as our city lord." When she said this, the middle-aged woman burst into tears, "Why did the city lord die so suddenly and set off so clearly? The day before, I drove that little slut from the Sun family out of the city, and I thought that the city would be more peaceful in the future without those moths, but the next day, just..." The woman began to sob softly Get up, "I really don't want the base to go back to what it used to be!"

Mu Xishan raised his hand to cover his left chest, and the beating heart in the chest began to speed up, which made the blood flow boil.

Residents who set up stalls also communicated with customers:

"If you change the city lord, you will definitely not be able to see the dwarfs again...Although I always thought they were ugly and their hearts were not very good, but after getting in touch with them, I realized that they have simple and honest personalities, and they are all stupid. Sigh , since my man left, I do business every day from dawn to dusk. Before dawn, I carry these heavy goods on the road for several kilometers. After I beat the dwarves into the city, every time the dwarfs come over and rush to help me carry things. .”

The old man who set up a stall next to him also agreed:

"Yes, yes, not only helping to move things, but also helping to set up stalls. I know a dwarf. He sees that my legs and feet are not convenient. He leaves early and returns late every day, just to help me set up and close stalls at the base. Even my home The broken bed and table have been repaired for me... If you want me to say, the main purpose of the new city is to prevent dwarves from entering the city, so I will go to the city lord's mansion to protest every day!"

"Don't say dwarves can't come in, those arrogant supernatural beings will definitely come back... Well, it would be great if the city lord was still here." The topic turned back to the news of the city lord's death, and the residents fell silent. Weeping sadly, the tears were silent, "This world is always so unfair, the scourge lasts for thousands of years, and good people don't live long."

Mu Xishan went to a nearby store selling daily necessities, bought a handkerchief, put it in front of the crying woman, and asked:

"Did you drop it?"

The woman was crying, when she was asked such a question inexplicably, she looked at the handkerchief in a daze, with tears still on her face, "No, no."

Mu Xishan put the handkerchief in the woman's hand without refusal, "It told me that its owner is you." Looking up at the woman, Mu Xishan's lightly scarred face and dark green eyes were as beautiful as jewels, Bending slightly, motioning for a handkerchief.

"It says now that it wants to kiss your eyes, and that...you must be beautiful when you smile."

The middle-aged woman with a husband and son blushed and stammered, "No, no... I'm not beautiful, you are beautiful, not me." As she blushed to the point of being nervous, she began to speak incoherently. The stall owner and customers booed and accepted the handkerchief.

Mu Xishan turned to leave, but the woman wiped away her tears and called Mu Xishan to stop, and said embarrassingly: "Little brother, are you married? My family also has a son who is not good enough. Although he is not good, everything else is fine. Real, able to work, and caring for the family."

After the woman finished speaking, there was a commotion from the passers-by. Mu Xishan blinked, and only then did he understand the woman's meaning when he saw the narrow expressions on the other people's faces. He declined, "...I'm married."

The woman looked at Mu Xishan's leaving back with pity, and said to others: "If he hadn't been married, such a good child would be broken through by the proposer. Although he is not as good-looking as Feifei Sun, his character is hundreds of times better than that girl. "

Mu Xishan returned to the city lord's mansion at noon, and the veterans serving as guards were changing guards. When passing by, Mu Xishan heard one of them complaining to his friends, "...if the base changes the city lord, there will definitely be new actions, but I hope the successor is not too bad, otherwise we have to change places again, let me say..." The latter words were lost as the veteran with supernatural abilities went further and further away.

Zhu'er put the lunch in the side room of the living room, and went to ask Mu Xishan to have dinner. After Mu Xishan was seated, she found that Jiang Qi and Jiang Feng were not there.

Zhu'er saw Mu Xishan's doubts and explained: "Since the news of City Lord Jiang's visit to the base spread among the high-level people, there has been an endless stream of visitors. City Lord Jiang is still receiving the reception, and President Jiang Jun is listening. Someone moved the lunch into the room."

Mu Xishan nodded to show that he knew, but Zhu'er was stunned for a moment when he saw his natural movements, Mu Xishan stopped with his hand holding the chopsticks, looked up at Zhu'er who was staring at him in a daze, and asked suspiciously: "What is there on my face?" ?"

Zhu'er's eyes turned red, she tilted her head and wiped her eyes, lowered her head, and said in a slightly crying voice, "I'm sorry for my rudeness, I hope it didn't affect your dining mood."

Seeing the tears in the corners of Zhu'er's eyes, Mu Xishan said incomprehensibly, "...I made you cry?"

Zhu'er seemed to think of something sad, and the tears in her eyes became more violent, "It's not your fault... Although I have accepted the news of the death of the city lord, and I know your subordinates of the city lord Jiang, but your reaction occasionally resembles that of our city lord. ——” Pearl covered her mouth, realizing her mistake—it would be unpleasant to say that someone is like another person, and people with independent personalities would not want to be copies of others, not to mention that their city lords were killed in the north. Many people misunderstood, Zhu'er apologized again and again, almost unable to lift her head in shame.

"I shouldn't have said that, I'm sorry to make you so rude again...I'm going to see if your soup for lunch is ready!"

Zhu'er ran out, Mu Xishan opened his mouth slightly, and then closed it tightly after a while... He didn't know how to express his current emotions, so he clasped his hands together.

In his previous life, he had been a marionette all his life, interspersed with the rhythm of his entire life: being dominated.

This "fake death" made him feel again and again that he was needed, recognized, and revered by others.This kind of information obtained from others seems to hold the heart high and bind it tightly.

The position of "City Lord" is not only his honor, but also his responsibility.

…………

Mu Xishan returned to the guest room after lunch, and happened to see Jiang Feng escorting Lu Bao and Feng An out of the guest room in the yard. He seemed to be talking about something, Jiang Feng saw Mu Xishan nodded, and the other two were thinking He completely ignored his existence, and when he passed by, Lu Bao was pulling Jiang Feng's sleeve intently, and eagerly said in a characteristic cadence:

"Mr. Jiang Jun, you also know that it is impossible for a man as far-sighted as our city lord to be in danger. Even if he is unfortunate enough to be in danger, with his awe-inspiring righteousness, even wild animals can be driven back three feet. Beasts that don't have long eyes, a unparalleled person like the city lord must be lucky and survive a catastrophe, so don't take Pan Yi's words seriously. Feng An has sent people to the quarantine area to save people. Help and tell the city lord Jiang Intercede, the 'three days delay' is not enough at all, a man as imposing as our city lord will definitely make his grand appearance at the end, at least 30 days will be enough!"

With a toothache on his face, Feng An tore the eloquent Feng An off Jiang Feng's body, dragged away, and said apologetically to Jiang Feng:

"Hey, although this kid's words are too fluffy to stand up to scrutiny, we mean the same thing. For the sake of being in charge of the city lord, you should delay as much as possible. If you really find the city lord's body, we will consider it Yes. But it’s so ambiguous, it’s really a bit reconciled!"

Jiang Feng sent the two of them out of the courtyard and walked back to Mu Xishan.

The light of noon enveloped Muxishan. The man without a cloak was not like in the past, always like a moving black shadow. The sun outlined the outline of Muxishan, from the face to the line of the body, the shadow behind, the face The magnanimous and bright above.

"You are loved by others." Jiang Feng sighed.

For the first time in his life, Mu Xishan showed a purposeless smile, and Weibi's eyes were as bright as the sun... Because he was happy, he was happy.Because she was moved, she was firm and said softly, "...I know."

That smile dazzled Jiang Feng's eyes, Jiang Feng wanted to look away, but his eyes involuntarily stopped on Mu Xishan's face.

Jiang Qi couldn't wait for Jiang Feng to come back for a long time, and when he walked to the door, he saw this scene - his younger brother was crazy about that little liar.

"Jiang Feng, I have something to tell him." Jiang Qi's voice abruptly pulled Jiang Feng's gaze away, and when he turned around to see his brother standing by the door, Jiang Feng's heart tightened, because Jiang Qi's gaze was too unkind, and gloomy.Jiang Feng was afraid that Jiang Qi would say something unscrupulous and slander Mu Xishan, so he said to Mu Xishan:

"City Master, we have found Gao Shen's weakness."

Mu Xishan followed Jiang Feng's line of sight to see the stern-faced Jiang Qi, frowned, subconsciously feeling disgusted in his heart, but still followed Jiang Feng and walked over.

After several people entered the room, Mu Xishan asked suspiciously, "What is it?"

Jiang Qi sat down on the main seat, and then replied in a neutral tone: "You don't even have the manners to sit down and talk?"

Mu Xishan looked at Jiang Qi coldly, and his irritability began to grow. He used to live in the palace, and it was disrespectful to sit with his master, and he didn't think there was any impoliteness.Of course, thinking that his identity had changed now, Mu Xishan sat down beside him without arguing.

Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, Jiang Feng said, "It's Su Yun, Gao Shen's weakness is her."

Mu Xishan looked at Jiang Feng, waiting to be cleared.The smile just now was still lingering in Jiang Feng's mind, and being stared at like this made it difficult for Jiang Feng to look back frankly. Jiang Qi's face darkened, and he couldn't see it and explained aloud:

"After spreading the news about my visit to the base this morning, all the high-level officials came here in fear. Given my status, they knew everything and asked me to piece together useful information from seemingly insignificant news, such as: Gao Shen loves Su Yun, Su Yun is dying due to progeria, and the Yunnan-Guizhou base is researching a drug that can optimize genes."

Therefore, it is very likely that the Yunnan-Guizhou base used medicine to blackmail Gao Shen to work for him, and Gao Shen may not only use the medicine to save Su Yun's life, but also want to gain power to get rid of the Yunnan-Guizhou base and be with Su Yun... Mu Xishan was thinking, Jiang Qi said in a deep voice without pretense:

"All kinds of information are not so difficult to obtain, and such obvious answers are ignored, which makes me deeply doubt your IQ... How did you grow up ignorantly. The intersection of people is like a spider web, each with its own rules , the lower-level staff can at least choose to be a vassal, but as the upper-level management, if they can't figure it out, they will only be entangled to death!"

Mu Xishan's face turned cold when he heard the words, and he pursed his mouth. Although Jiang Qi woke him up, this kind of tone really couldn't make the listeners feel calm.

Compared with Mu Xishan who can't confirm the "partner" relationship, Jiang Qi is more merciless towards his important younger brother:

"Jiang Feng! Listen to what you mean, I sent you here for Gao Shen's business, but the answer sheet you gave me was only: 'Secret, hard to find', but I couldn't find the passage, isn't there a trail? It's not a secret It is only valuable, and the subtlety of gossip is also useful, you have to learn to use everything around you that can be used - people, things, things."

After Jiang Qi finished speaking, he asked Jiang Feng to go down, leaving Mu Xishan alone.

Jiang Feng was worried that Jiang Qi would say something nasty again, so he hesitated and refused to leave. Jiang Qi's face was slightly gloomy, and he said a little worried: "For an outsider, don't you even trust your own brother?"

Jiang Feng's expression was awkward, and he still didn't move. Mu Xishan saw that the golden energy on Jiang Qi's body began to leak black again, and turned around to order Jiang Feng:

"Go down."

Only then did Jiang Feng bend over and leave full of worry, leaving behind a sentence: "No matter what you hear, don't take it to heart."

"Heh." Jiang Qi curled the corners of his mouth and said mockingly, "The power of love is really great, it can turn a brother who obeys orders into a hound who invites pets by others' legs."

Mu Xishan let out a breath slowly, suppressed the churning emotions in his heart, and asked in a calm voice without any emotion:

"Since you dislike me so much, why are you looking for clues for me?"

"You missed the point." Jiang Qi said, "That's why I kept you."

Jiang Qi got up from his seat, walked to Mu Xishan, bent down to look down at Mu Xishan's face, and met those fearless eyes.

"Since I just said some unkind words, but I believe that I was not such a mean person. I originally helped you to offset the inappropriateness of my words."

Mu Xishan almost let out a cold snort from his nasal cavity, but in the end he just kept a cold face, waiting for Jiang Qi to excuse himself next time.

Jiang Qi's breath sprayed on the top of Mu Xishan's head. He approached Mu Xishan until his eyes met each other and couldn't see each other's faces clearly. Can't help but say the same thing, so...it's not my fault."

"Could it be that I made you like this?" Mu Xishan felt ridiculous.

Jiang Qi looked serious, and even affirmed solemnly: "It is true."

"Bandit logic!" Mu Xishan suddenly pushed Jiang Qi away, turned around and left, Jiang Qi stepped forward to grab Mu Xishan's collar, but was quickly dodged, after Mu Xishan went out, he turned around and closed the door tightly again. Said by the door: "I have nothing to say to you."

Jiang Qi stroked the nose that was hit again, and was silent for a while, "...I will continue to help you."

The door panel blocked Mu Xishan's face and also weakened the volume, but the power of Jiang Qi's words still pierced Mu Xishan's temper, because Jiang Qi said the following:

"Before I think of more information, I don't want our 'marriage relationship' to break up with your 'willful' because of my 'incompleteness', even if it is dispensable, it should be decided by me , after I regained my memory."

"...You're thinking too much." Mu Xishan's voice came through the door.

Jiang Qi continued: "I don't need you to question my thoughts. Judging from the fact that you are constantly controlling my emotions and forcing me to do things that are against common sense, heart and principles... I may not have thought too much. "

Jiang Qi waited for a long time, and found that there was too much silence outside the door. He opened the door, but found that there was nothing in front of him.

Mu Xishan had already left.

Looking down, there was a pair of abandoned shoes on the ground. In order to prevent him from entanglement, Mu Xishan had already quietly left barefoot.

…………

In the afternoon of this day, Mu Xishan didn't go out again, looking through the list of suspects and background information he got from Jiang Feng.But his mind wandered from time to time, thinking of Jiang Qi's accusations against him made Mu Xishan's eyes turn cold, and his doubts about "marriage" made Jiang Qi inexplicable like a persecution paranoia, and felt really sad for his future marriage partner.

But apart from this point, he has to agree with Jiang Qi's leadership, even though it is accompanied by the symptoms of retrograde blood.

Suppressing his dissatisfaction, Mu Xishan thought calmly... He kept trying, imitating, and expressing his will, but these were just means of justice, and under his authority, he not only had to maintain a positive image, but also faced the shadows from behind , when the interests he can generate are getting bigger and bigger, how will he resolve more crises-those forces involved in interests will be like leeches, greedily trying to suck more blood from him.

It is not difficult to launch products to benefit the base, but how to prevent the huge net that is about to spread around him is difficult.

There are two methods, one is: be strong yourself and resist pressure with one force.The second is: look for a backer and leverage on it.

There is still some distance between the former and the latter, thinking of the leader of the only reliable force in the north, Mu Xishan frowned. At this moment, he suddenly felt the magical fluctuations in his waist. He opened his belt and took out the holy book. There is not a single page that I haven’t read, and with this new content, I don’t know what to write?

Open the latest content: "Four: The First Family"

〖One day, thousands of miles apart, the four members of the first family met without knowing it, and their fate was also implicated in this. 〗

Thinking that he was the one who met Jiang Qi when the magic fluctuations occurred, Mu Xishan couldn't believe it, and asked with a bit of luck: "I remember that there should be only a few hundred miles from the Panlong base to the quarantine area, so I should not be included among those four people. do you think so?"

〖The exaggerated statement of embellishment does not include you. 〗

Mu Xishan felt relieved and asked, "Who is that?"

〖His Majesty Jiang Qi, Prince Jiang Rong, Prince Jiang Feng, and the queen behind the scenes. 〗

Mu Xishan opened his mouth in shock, unable to understand the meaning of the holy book, but when he opened the refreshed content just now, he understood the words of the holy book:

"Five: The Allegiance of the Angel"

〖At a certain moment, the envoy was looking for a force to rely on, and selected the first base in the north. Since then, he has formed an indissoluble bond with the founding monarch and assisted him in creating a great cause. 〗

Mu Xishan asked word by word in a difficult tone: "That is to say... originally Mu Xishan and the 'God Envoy' were two people, but I became Mu Xishan, and Mu Xishan was the original queen...so Am I going to be an unlucky scapegoat?!"

〖Your question is beyond the scope of the holy book, I am sorry that I cannot answer it. 〗

"No need to answer." Mu Xishan closed the book and decided to put the holy book on the shelf from now on, with a sneer in his heart... let alone a partner, he can't even do allegiance!

When Mu Xishan was hit by the "possibility" of the future, a message came from the backyard:

Gao Shen proposed to Su Yun!

The turning point of reality put aside unformed fantasies, followed by a visit to the backyard.On the road, Mu Xishan met Jiang Jundu, Gui Chengmei, Yan Su and other high-level executives who came to congratulate him. They didn't recognize him. Mu Xishan nodded to them and found that Jiang Feng had also rushed over. About to walk over, I was suddenly stopped by a familiar voice from behind:

"City Lord! I knew you were not dead. Your elegant and unrestrained figure is like a beautiful red cloud in the sky. Even if night falls and your figure is covered, and the god of death comes and takes your soul away, I can hold the ashes and take away your soul." You recognize it!"

Lu Bao's voice immediately aroused the crowd's onlookers, and everyone else took it as a joke, hehe, but Jiang Feng's eyes tightened, and he immediately looked at Gao Shen who was beginning to think. Mu Xishan turned around calmly, and said to Lu Bao indifferently:

"You got the wrong person."

Lu Bao was stunned for a moment, and without admitting defeat, he ran over and circled Muxi Mountain, shaking his head and sighing as he looked at it, "How can you be so similar... What's the use of being so good-looking, it would be better if you were uglier." Consciousness Then, Lu Bao patted his mouth by slip of the tongue, "Slapping and slapping, I'm being rude."

Mu Xishan waved his hand slightly, and said in a flawless tone, "It's okay, you President Jiang Jun and Minister Gao also admitted their mistakes before... It's a pity that he has passed away, otherwise I really hope to see you again."

Mu Xishan's tone was too magnanimous, Gao Shen felt ridiculous for his doubts, and continued to chat with friends, the small crisis was resolved invisible, Jiang Feng withdrew his gaze, but Lu Bao paused, and started to make trouble again:

"Since I recognized the wrong person, your figure reminds me of the former city lord. I am still in grief and want to bang my head against the wall."

The crowd completely ignored Lu Bao, who was rambunctious, but an accident happened at this moment. Lu Bao, who was about to hit the wall, bumped into Mu Xishan. Jiang Feng came over to catch Mu Xishan in an instant, but Lu Bao was full of shame, and held Mu Xishan's hand tightly. Wanting to kneel down and make amends, Mu Xishan was trying to stop Lu Bao.Lu Bao rolled his eyeballs and said embarrassedly:

"Well, there are too many people here, it's a bit embarrassing, let me kneel to you alone!"

Jiang Feng frowned, and followed, but was stopped by Jiang Jundu who was next to him, "Ah, ah, Mr. Jiang Jun, you can't be so wink, didn't you see that Lu Bao has been holding on to his hand? It's obviously to see The young man is good-looking, deliberately looking for opportunities to be alone!"

When Jiang Feng heard this, he wanted to go over, but was hugged by Jiang Jundu, "Hey! I will fight for my brother's happiness." The people next to him burst into laughter, and Jiang Feng could only watch helplessly as Lu Bao took Mu Xishan away. .

The two walked to a secluded place, and it wasn't as romantic as Jiang Feng thought. Lu Baozhen knelt at the foot of Muxi Mountain, and Muxi Mountain was about to get out of the way, when Lu Bao whispered:

"City Lord!"

Mu Xishan still shook his head to explain, Lu Bao crawled to the foot of Mu Xishan on his knees, grabbed Mu Xishan's hand, and re-bandaged him, "Although I don't know why you pretended to be dead, and I don't know why you look so good Yes, but you should wear gloves so as not to expose the brand of the city lord." Mu Xishan looked at Lu Bao silently, Lu Bao pouted and said awkwardly:

"You don't have to doubt my loyalty, it's great to see you safe and sound."

Mu Xishan called Lu Bao, but did not explain his plan. Instead, Lu Bao said, "City Lord, I will take you to meet someone."

Mu Xishan followed Lu Bao, but found that he was taken to the place where the employees of the mansion lived, pushed open the courtyard door, and a woman with a big belly was weaving rattan shoes under the eaves, and several children beside her were playing around. After seeing Lu Bao, she was excited. Shouting: "Brother Bao Bao!" Surrounded him, even the pregnant woman walked over with her belly full of smiles.

Mu Xishan looked at a few people, thinking of Lu Bao's tit-for-tat situation when he first met them, he sighed in surprise: "I didn't expect you to have such a talent."

"That is, our Lu Bao is a treasure that everyone loves and is omnipotent." After boasting about himself without shame, Lu Bao brought up the business, let the children wait aside first, and dragged Mu Xishan to the corner to talk:

"The thing is like this. These children used to go to Mrs. Su Yun's backyard every day to open a small stove to attend classes. Once, Ma Qi slept in the cubicle when he was sleepy. Yi reimbursed other bills for the expenses of the guards in the mansion. I didn't take it to heart at the time, because Minister Gao was not someone who would profit from this, so I thought Ma Qi had heard it wrong."

Lu Bao said regretfully, "Then on the day when you had an accident, when Feng An was training his troops, we found unknown personnel moving around inside and outside the city. I don’t know how many people are from Gao Shen’s side, none of us said anything, and we have been acting in private.”

"You took me here..." Mu Xishan looked at the child who was watching not far away, and asked in doubt.

Lu Bao continued: "So I asked Ma Qi and the others to go to Mrs. Su Yun to collect clues again. As a result, during the aftershock, Pan Yi came to the yard to look for Gao Shen. He was too anxious and tripped over a piece of gravel stuck in the gap between the soles of his shoes. The head popped out, Gao Shen and Pan Yi left in a hurry and didn’t find it, Ma Qi picked it up curiously, I looked at it, thought it looked unusual, and it might be useful, so I didn’t let them throw it away.”

Having finished speaking, Lu Bao went to ask March to take out the stone, and said while waiting:

"Just take a look later, maybe you can figure out where they went."

After receiving the stone from Ma Qi, Mu Xishan felt a big shock in his heart—the unpolished stone is uneven and has no aesthetic feeling, but the strange and unique texture on it seems to be alive, and there is an illusion that it is flowing under the sun. Mu Xishan raised his hand and fell hard to the ground. Lu Bao watched Mu Xishan pick up the stone in astonishment, "It's fine if you don't see where they went! Even if you are angry...you don't have to compete with a stone!"

Mu Xishan really couldn't tell where they were going with just one stone!

But he could see that it was a gathering spirit stone.

Also known as: Magic Essence Stone, its characteristic is that it is extremely hard and difficult to carve.It is the most magical ore in later generations, and its most common use is to assist in alchemy and build teleportation arrays.
