Chapter 252 I have a showdown(1/2)
The cold wind is still howling outside the window.
Inside the window, on a snowy winter day, there wouldn't be many guests.
At this time, there was only one guest in the entire tavern, Shang Li.
In fact, he never took off his bamboo hat to protect himself from wind and snow, and wore a loose gray cloth robe to cover his whole body, because he did not want to reveal his identity at all. For him, exposing his identity would be a very troublesome thing.
But even so, he was still accurately sniped in this tavern...
"Since the head of Shang knows our origins, why do we still drink this cup of poisonous tea?" the waiter said.
Shang Li smiled softly: "Didn't I say it before? When others earnestly persuade me to drink something, I can't resist their kind words."
"That's why I made the vow not to drink alcohol twenty years ago."
"But if you don't persuade me to drink wine but instead persuade me to drink tea, then you won't even be able to find the reason for your final refusal."
The waiter laughed loudly and said: "I didn't expect that the dignified head of Huashan would be such an indecisive and good old man. It's really unexpected."
"So if you die here today, it will be considered a well-deserved death."
Shang Li held his head. Indeed, a strong sense of sleepiness and numbness spread throughout his body.
Mengluo is one of the most overbearing and terrifying anesthetics in Luo religion. Its meaning is the snare in dreams, and it is a drug that can make people fall asleep and fall into a snare unknowingly.
Originally, the waiter planned to serve Shang Li well and then take Shang Li away without anyone noticing.
But I never expected that this little old man would drink the medicated tea first, and then destroy their medicine and legs.
To be honest, after decades of working in the industry, I have never seen such strange requests and people.
"Of course I don't want to die, little old man." Shang Li sat on the chair and smiled: "But at least let me be an understanding ghost before you die, how about it?"
"How did you find out my whereabouts? And why did you go to such great lengths to plot my death here?"
"Honestly speaking, although Huashan is indeed very close to your Luo religion, for more than ten years it has always been a matter of course. Even if Elder Ning died in China some time ago, the little old man I don't have much to do with it."
"If that's the case, why do you want to do this to harm me?"
The waiter sneered: "Actually, Master Shang's heart is like a bright mirror, so why bother asking me?"
"But since the leader is so sensible, it saves us a lot of effort. In this case, what if we let the leader Shang be a sensible person?"
"In the final analysis, don't let that bastard kill our Dharma Protector!" The waiter gritted his teeth and said, "That's why the leader decided to ask you, the Central Plains Wulin, to repay you ten times."
What's the tenfold repayment method?
Ding Kuyu himself would never come to Middle-earth and put himself in danger under any circumstances.
Since he doesn't come, he can only use all the backhands and secrets arranged by the Luo Jiao in the Middle Earth.
Of course Liu Pingye is one of them, but a man like Ding Kuyu will undoubtedly not put all his eggs in one basket.
"I see." Shang Li sighed: "Then I will go down the mountain?"
If Shang Li is still in Huashan, it is like the Shaolin abbot is in Shaolin and Ding Kuyu is in the Western Regions. He is an iron bucket that cannot be blown in by the wind or wet by the rain. Even if he can infiltrate one or two disciples, what will happen to him?
?
However, once the leader comes down from the mountain, it is equivalent to saying that the tiger has fallen on the plain and the dragon is swimming in the shallows. The strong dragon cannot suppress the local snake, let alone the local snake who has worked hard.
"But I went down the mountain secretly, so how do you know the trajectory of my actions?" Shang Li continued to ask.
He sat motionless in his chair and seemed to have no strength to even stand up.
"Master Shang is really smart and confused for a while." The waiter smiled nonchalantly: "I, Luo Jiao, have millions of disciples, just like Ning Huaiyuan was able to sneak into Huashan. He is in a high position and dare not say it, but he has many informants.
It was so easy, as soon as the leader came down from the mountain, someone sent a letter."
"What's more, the fact that Fang Bu wants to challenge the leader has also spread all over the world. If Fang Bu doesn't go to Huashan, the leader Shang will naturally not make a special trip down the mountain to accept the challenge."
"But everyone in the world knows that Master Shang owes Fang Bu a big favor. This time he was challenged by Fang Bu, and it is inevitable to repay this favor. So many people estimate that the leader will go down the mountain secretly. If the two of them prove it, we only need to go on the road.
Just wait and wait."
"The leader said that since you, the Central Plains Martial Arts, killed our Dharma Protector King, you will have to pay ten times the price, otherwise you will bully me, Luo Jiao, and no one else!"
"Now that Bai Qian, the dean of Egret Academy, has been appointed the first, the second one is of course you, the head of Huashan."
"Next, no matter it is Guo Juxia from the Six Gates or whoever is the culprit, they will all accept the flames of revenge from the Luo Jiao's anger, knowing that you understand the high price to pay for daring to provoke the Luo Jiao.
"
Shang Li sighed: "In this case, I will understand everything."
Saying this, Shang Li looked at the note sent by the white pigeon on the table: "I didn't plan to sharpen it before, but the Beehive sent me a letter, and I happened to not bring rice or other food.
, so I took the liberty to sit here for a while.”
The waiter laughed loudly: "Master Shang, are you saying that the hive has harmed you?"
Shang Li shook his head quietly and looked at the confident man in front of him: "Don't you want to see what is written on this piece of paper?"
…
…
"This trip down the mountain from Shangli is destined to not be smooth." Xue Ling faced the red candle and said quietly to Shang Jiuge: "Shu Qing is dead, and Luo Jiao is now like a crazy dog.
No doubt there will be bites all over the place.”
"And if Shang Li goes down the mountain, he will definitely become the target of public criticism."
"It doesn't matter." Shang Jiuge smiled: "He is a senior brother."
Mom, wasn’t it true that when I came down from the mountain, I was the target of public criticism? Didn’t I come back intact?
What's more, he is still my senior brother.
Shang Jiuge is really full of confidence.
"Luo Jiao is best at calculating with intention and without intention. If he really concentrates on dealing with Shang Li, then even the head of Shang will probably make a mistake if he thinks too much." Xue Ling said slowly: "Besides, Jiu Ge, you and Jiu Ge
After all, the weight of business separation is still different."
When Shang Jiuge came down from the mountain, there were indeed many people who were eyeing the girl who was known as the number one in the martial arts world in the future and started to take action one after another. But to put it bluntly, most people borrowed the white gloves of Hive, and He Ping happened to be the shelter of Hive.
, so it is said that Shang Jiuge was almost safe.
Moreover, the biggest crisis that Shang Jiuge encountered was the unexpected encounter with Hei Wu. At that stage, Hei Wu basically crushed Shang Jiuge, causing Xue Ling to run away with Shang Jiuge for a long time.
.
So Shang Jiuge is full of self-confidence, and a large part of it is honey self-confidence.
"Then what should we do?" Shang Jiuge looked at Xue Ling, his eyes clear and bright: "I can't go pick up my senior brother."
Although in fact, if it was a problem that Shang Li couldn't handle, adding Shang Jiuge would probably be useless.
"It's okay." Xue Ling looked at Shang Jiuge: "I have already sent a carrier pigeon."
"If you find any trace of Shang Li, send him a letter as soon as possible."
"Ah?" Shang Jiuge didn't expect that honeycomb could be used in this way.
"Can you find it as soon as possible?"
"Of course it's no problem." Xue Ling smiled.
"This is a beehive."
"Wherever there are people, there are bees."
"Otherwise, that person wouldn't be so obsessed with the hive."
…
…
The waiter picked up the blank piece of paper as if he didn't believe it.
He did not suspect that the white paper was fraudulent. After all, Shang Li did not have time to tamper with the white paper, not to mention that Shang Li had just picked it up and read it.
It contains some latest information, which most waiters already know, such as Guo Juxia going to Yingtian Mansion, Fang Bian appearing at Bailu Academy, Liu Ping assassinating his mentor Bai Qian at night, and Bai Qian passing away at Bailu Academy.
Of course, these are all earth-shattering events, and they can be considered within the scope of hive group messaging.
But the waiter looked at the last line of the white paper.
It was a line of small characters written in ink.
The font is beautiful and clear.
"There are many plots along the way, so please be careful."
The waiter was suddenly startled.
In other words, when Shang Li read this blank piece of paper, he had already raised his vigilance to the extreme.
So why did he calmly drink this bowl of hot tea with added ingredients?
Could it be that the reason is that he is not very good at rejecting others and wants to drink a cup of hot tea to warm himself up when the weather is cold?
A liar, right?
