My lady, I'm going to rebel.

Mu Zheng readily agreed to the evening's invitation, and Li Lian's eyes lit up with joy: "Haha. Seven Heroes Town is just up ahead. We won't be home until we're drunk tonight."

Mu Zheng laughed too. This kid seemed quite silly. He said there was danger and said he would not go home until he was drunk. It was as if he was afraid that Mu Zheng would not realize that this danger was prepared for him.

However, Mu Zheng was not afraid. Sometimes, it was impossible to tame some rebellious kids without real skills.

"By the way, on our way to Langya, will we pass through Haiqu?" Mu Zheng sincerely hoped to return to Xiejiabao. The feeling of conducting personal business on a public trip was simply too good to be true.

"Haiqu?" Li Lian looked at Mu Zheng, "Do you know anyone there?"

Mu Zheng nodded, thinking that Li Lian would pull him aside to ask questions, but unexpectedly the man turned his head and stopped talking.

baffling.

In the evening, Li Lian took Mu Zheng to a tavern.

As soon as he entered, he saw a group of men standing up to greet Li Lian, and many of them were looking at Mu Zheng.

Mu Zheng sat down next to Li Lian.

Then, Li Lian shouted loudly, "Come on, bring the strongest liquor. You can't leave today until you drink it all."

Seeing Li Lian's enthusiastic look, Mu Zheng just curled his lips. Want to get him drunk?

Then they don't know the life of special forces in the barracks. They can't vomit after drinking, but they definitely can't get drunk.

Sure enough, everyone was looking for Mu Zheng to drink, and Mu Zheng accepted everyone's offer, drinking bowl after bowl, and he drank heartily.

Li Lian was dumbfounded. He had set up such a big banquet in order to get information, but he didn't want to spend money and get no results, that would be a loss.

Mu Zheng couldn't help but laugh when he saw Li Lian's pale face. But then he thought, he was still a grown man of 27 or 28, so why would he compete with this 17 or 18-year-old kid?

childish.

So, Mu Zheng decided to pretend to be asleep and see what Li Lian was trying to do.

"Mr. Lian, this man seems confused." A young man in blue patted Mu Zheng's shoulder and spoke with a lisp.

"Is he drunk?" Li Lian said. Then he groaned, "I told you guys to drink less. Now he's asleep, how can I ask for news?"

Uh.

Everyone started to make a commotion again.

Then he felt Li Lian pushing his shoulder: "Mu Zheng, Young Master Mu? Guard Mu? Tell me quickly, who are you? Did my father assign you a special mission?"

Mu Zheng was speechless.

It turns out that this kid still doubts him.

Oh, no, to be precise, I am suspecting Li Zhong.

When the group of people drinking heard what Li Lian said, they were also surprised: "Master Lian, you said this person was sent by Lord Li? Then you are in Lang..."

"Shh...keep your voice down, or your head will fall off."

Someone interrupted the man, but Mu Zheng, who was pretending to be asleep, felt a sinking feeling in his heart. Losing his head? Damn, what the hell? He was just here to be a guard, how could he be involved in losing his head?

"That's right." Li Lian seemed to be struck by what he said. "This guy said today that he has acquaintances in Haiqu. Tell me, could this be my father testing me?"

"Ah?" Everyone was in an uproar.

But the more Mu Zheng listened, the more alarmed he became. What on earth was Li Lian doing? From what he said, it seemed like it was related to Haiqu?

Suddenly, a flash of light passed through Mu Zheng's mind.

There is only one thing that can cost you your life in Haiqu now, is that right?

If Mu Zheng hadn't already mastered the skill of pretending to be asleep while staying calm, he would have really wanted to jump up and slap Li Lian twice.

Just let yourself die, okay? Don't bring trouble to your father.

Your father is my future.

Just as Mu Zheng's heart was in turmoil, a rough voice came over: "Li Lian, are you still rushing to Qixia Town?"

Immediately afterwards, he heard footsteps. Mu Zheng slightly clenched his eyes and looked through his arms, only to see seven or eight men rushing in with sticks in their hands.

Li Lian's expression changed after seeing who was coming. "Bai Xiaoya!"

"Hmph." Bai Xiaoya snorted coldly, "I didn't expect that. I didn't expect that. Master Li, who is so smart, made a fool of himself today. He knew I was looking for you everywhere, but instead of hiding, he took the initiative to come to my door."

Li Lian's face turned grim. "I didn't expect you to be like that guy, coming just by smelling something."

"What?" Bai Xiaoya probably didn't expect Li Lian to mock him in such a situation. His face suddenly turned fierce. "Li Lian, you intercepted my business and caused me to lose 10 yuan. I must settle this account with you today."

"Bah!" Li Lian said angrily, "Bai Xiaoya, do you still have any shame? There's a famine right now, and the people can't get enough to eat. You're still hoarding grain and selling it at a high price. Aren't you afraid of being exposed?"

"Hahaha." Bai Xiaoya laughed, "I don't know if my spine will be pierced, but today your hard bones will definitely be broken."

After saying that, Bai Xiaoya snatched a wooden stick from the servant behind him and threw it in front of Li Lian with a thud. "Whoever is trying to steal my business, stop it yourself, or you won't be able to leave this door today."

As the voice fell, the faces of those present changed drastically. A young man stepped forward, bowed and smiled apologetically, "Mr. Bai, we are all businessmen. This is a violation of etiquette."

Snapped……

Bai Xiaoya raised her hand and slapped him, "Li Kui, don't meddle in things that are not your business."

After being slapped, Li Kui didn't even dare to breathe. Although his face was full of anger, he still retreated.

"Mr. Bai, this is too much..." There was another person who wanted to explain everything, but when Bai Xiaoya gave him a look, the man shrank his neck and didn't dare to speak.

At this moment, someone behind Bai Xiaoya came forward and flattered him, "Brother Bai, I think one hand might not be enough. This guy has caused you a lot of trouble over the years. If he hadn't reported you to the authorities for price gouging last time, you wouldn't have been fined."

Li Lian glanced at the man and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't open his mouth.

"What? Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Bai Xiaoya sneered.

Then, the group of thugs behind Bai Xiaoya surrounded him.

Seeing this scene, Mu Zheng sighed and said that if Li Lian didn't cause trouble, he would get into trouble.

Mu Zheng stretched lazily, pretending to be sober. "Hey, why are you still here? Are you out of wine? If not, ask the boss to come up. Let them pay the bill."

Mu Zheng pointed at Bai Xiaoya.

Pay the bill?

What do you mean?

Bai Xiaoya didn't understand, but looking at Mu Zheng's expression, she knew that he was another troublemaker.

"Who are you?" Bai Xiaoya looked at Mu Zheng.

"Mr. Li's bodyguard." Mu Zheng replied.

Guard?

Bai Xiaoya was stunned. Seeing this man's calm demeanor, she thought he was some important figure. But...

How could a freaking guard be so arrogant?

Bai Xiaoya's eyes flashed with anger, "Come on, cut off all his arms and legs."

"Mu Zheng." Li Lian frowned in delight when he saw Mu Zheng wake up, but then he thought of something and said quickly, "Don't get involved in this. They have more people than you can defeat."

Uh.

Hearing this, Mu Zheng's impression of Li Lian improved a little.

Although the little brat is rebellious, he is kind-hearted. He is so kind that he dares to do illegal things that could cost him his life.

Hearing Li Lian's words, Bai Xiaoya sneered, "Want to leave?"

As he spoke, his expression suddenly turned ferocious, and he smashed the wooden stick in his hand directly towards Mu Zheng's head.

"do not want!"

Li Lian shouted.

But it was too late. At the moment Bai Xiaoya made her move, Mu Zheng punched her in the chest.

"boom!"

Bai Xiaoya flew up and landed directly on the table behind him, grimacing in pain.

"Brother Bai..."

Bai Xiaoya's followers yelled loudly and looked at Mu Zheng as if he were the murderer of his father.

Li Lian looked at Mu Zheng in disbelief. He was familiar with Bai Xiaoya's kung fu. Even if it wasn't that good, he wouldn't be knocked away by a single punch.

His father really found him a master!
