I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

After a while.

Li Mu pulled the two men in black out of the ruins.

Seeing the tall and thin man still talking to himself as if he was crazy, he ignored him.

He looked at the man in black with a smile on his face, pointed at his nose with his Shisui mace, and said, "Tell me about it."

"Thank you for saving my life, Your Highness. I will work like a slave to repay Your Highness."

The man in black raised his hand to open his hood, pulled off the black cloth covering his face, and bowed his head desperately.

"You'd better say something I want to hear."

Li Mu frowned and snorted coldly.

"Yes, yes! My name is Niu Sanbao. I am a butcher on East Street. I usually just do some small business..."

Hearing this, Li Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his mace and smashed it in front of Niu Sanbao. Then there was a loud bang, and spider-web-like cracks suddenly appeared on the ground.

"If you say another word of nonsense, I'll break your hands and feet."

"I dare not. Whatever the prince wants to know, I will tell him everything... Tell him, tell him..."

Niu Sanbao quickly begged for mercy.

"Okay, okay, now I ask questions and you answer them."

Li Mu waved his hands and said impatiently.

"Yes Yes Yes…"

Niu Sanbao nodded frequently, looking fawning.

"Did you teach those two rascals what to say?"

"Yes Yes!"

"So that I can enter the third floor?"

"Uh... this... should be!"

Li Mu raised his eyebrows and said in a bad tone: "What do you mean should be?"

Seeing Li Mu getting angry, Niu Sanbao nodded quickly and said quickly: "I dare not deceive the prince, and I don't know either."

"Not sure, you say?"

"These are just my speculations. After all, I have only been here for a short time and I am an insignificant little character."

Li Mu nodded slightly, then froze for a moment, stepped forward and grabbed Niu Sanbao by the collar, saying in a bad tone:

"You said you were a butcher before?"

"That's right. Many people in East Street know me. How dare I deceive His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about this matter?"

"A second-level butcher from the outside family?"

Li Mu looked Niu Sanbao up and down, his eyes clearly meant "Do you think I'm stupid and easy to fool?"

"Don't tell me you are a master hiding in the city!"

As he spoke, he threw Niu Sanbao to the ground with force and said word by word:

"My patience is limited..."

"I dare not. I am telling the truth!"

Niu Sanbao didn't care about the severe pain in his body. He staggered to his feet and crawled at Li Mu's feet.

"Three months ago, I heard from Big Brother that someone was looking for someone to kill him. The price was very high. I was in debt at the time, so I had no choice but to agree."

"Your elder brother?"

Li Mu looked at Niu Sanbao, clenched the copper coin in his hand and asked.

"It's him, Xu Youde! We met in a brothel in the outer city a few years ago. At that time, I was beaten up by my eldest brother because of a woman. My eldest brother..."

"Tell the important point!"

Li Mu coughed twice and interrupted.

"Yes Yes!"

Niu Sanbao's body trembled.

"When I was a child, I also practiced martial arts, but I was only at the entry level. Three months ago, my elder brother came to my house and knocked me out. When I woke up, it was already a month later. That's when I realized that I had somehow acquired the cultivation level of the second level of the outer family."

"Oh my god! He is telling the truth! The person behind the scenes can turn an ordinary person into a second-level master in just one month?"

The second level of the outer family!

This is too outrageous.

Li Mu even wondered if it would be too late to apologize now and say that he had recognized the wrong person.

Even Li Mu didn't dare to say that he could transform a girl who had never practiced internal skills into a woman of the second level of internal skills in just one month.

Although three or five second-level external warriors were not enough to warm up Li Mu.

But if it is three to five hundred, three to five thousand, or even three to five thousand.

You know, two thousand well-trained soldiers who are familiar with the combined attack formation can surround and kill the first-level outsiders.

Not to mention, the threshold for ordinary soldiers in Xing Dynasty is only the fourth level.

Even now, Li Mu is surrounded by almost all experts.

To him, the second level of the outer family was not worth mentioning at all.

But Li Mu was clear about the value of the second-level external family.

Before Li Mu arrived at Prince Yan's Mansion, he was the highest fighting force in Prince Yan's Mansion.

It's just that Li Ling'er and Ying Yu are two second-level external families.

In the Jing'an Palace, the commander of the current emperor's imperial guards is only of the second rank.

Especially now that Canyue was defeated by Li Mu, Sun Hongyu might not be a match for the butcher in front of him.

Li Mu didn't even dare to think about what was ahead.

What exactly do such an unknown force want to do?

"Are you planning a rebellion?"

Li Mu's heart skipped a beat, he looked up at Niu Sanbao, and said in a gloomy tone:

"Why do you want me to die?!"

"I don't know. I never thought of harming His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Niu Sanbao cried out in a sobbing voice,

"I am just an errand boy. Apart from delivering messages a few times, I have done nothing else. I hope Your Highness will understand."

Li Mu did not look at Niu Sanbao again, but turned to look at the tall and thin man named Xu Youde. He took two steps forward and stepped on his bloody left leg, shouting:

"Don't be pretentious."

Xu Youde screamed and glared at Li Mu fiercely. Then he was slightly stunned, and a meaningful look appeared on his face:

"Your Highness, did you not enter the third floor?"

Li Mu nodded, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone:

"Very good, you have more brains than that old bastard."

As he spoke, he stepped harder and said viciously, "Since you have a brain, you should be aware of your situation!"

Unexpectedly, Xu Youde did not say anything this time. He gritted his teeth and stared at Li Mu.

Seeing this, Li Mu sighed slightly.

This kind of plot is everywhere in movies and TV series. With Li Mu's limited skills, he is afraid that he will not be able to get anything out of a brainwashed person like this.

He immediately raised Shisui and was about to kill the two men.

Although the two are just small fry, Li Mu is a professional keyboard warrior who has experienced the huge waves of the Internet.

Have a deep understanding of the principle of cutting the weeds at their roots.

Anyone who has a grudge against Li Mu will have to dig out the earthworms in his home and split them vertically in half.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Xu Youde shouted, "Wait a minute, my prince!"

Li Mu was stunned, and stopped moving his hands. A hint of amusement flashed in his eyes, "As expected of two brothers, you know how to handle the current situation."

Then Xu Youde said, "Your Highness, answer one of my questions. If I am satisfied, I will tell you everything I know."

"Does it satisfy you?"

Li Mu frowned and stared at Xu Youde, not quite understanding the meaning of his words.

But since this man said so, it was obvious that he was not afraid of death at all. Li Mu wanted to hear his question, so he nodded and said:

"You ask!"

"Your Highness, are you willing to sacrifice your own safety for a woman?"

Xu Youde had a smile on his face, which looked a bit sarcastic, but also like he was mocking himself.

"What kind of question is this? A moral test?"

Li Mu's face showed no emotion, but he was thinking in his mind.

For Li Mu, this question itself is not important.

What is important is the answer that the other party says can satisfy him.

Li Mu asked himself, for this kind of question, he didn't even need to think about it, the answer was definitely no!

But he really won’t?

Li Mu himself was not sure.

Back then in Yanshan City, I clearly saw corpses everywhere outside the Prince Yan’s mansion.

Li Mu, who had no idea how strong he was, still rushed in without hesitation.

Even Li Mu himself scolded himself repeatedly afterwards.

Even though Li Mu was unwilling to admit it, he was indeed an ordinary person who could not be more ordinary.

No matter how powerful, cold or even morbid the words are.

But the education he received in his bones made it impossible for him to become a time traveler who could survive well in another world.

Li Mu could not just stand by and watch the suffering of others.

Li Mu smiled bitterly in his heart, perhaps when he was rational, he could analyze the situation calmly and have the instinct to avoid risks.

But he also knew the difference between hearing and seeing with his own eyes.

Stay calm. These four words sound simple, but easier said than done.

"I guess I'm not such a bad person after all."

Li Mu smiled bitterly in his heart and prepared to answer truthfully.
