Cannon Fodder Strategy

Murong’s stepdaughter (8)

"Young Master." A bunch of pills were taken out by the secret guard and stuffed into Murong Chuiqing's mouth, but he spat out a large mouthful of blood with a 'wow' sound. The pills he had just taken into his mouth were spat out again, and he said viciously He stretched out his hand to wipe away the blood from his mouth, and grabbed Lily's hand with his hand. Murong Chuiqing clenched his fist with a sinister expression: "It's a pity that I couldn't kill Li Yanxi!"

"Young Master, the Li family is not to be trifled with..." Before the secret guard could finish his words, Murong Chuqing slapped him out. When the secret guard fell heavily out, he stumbled back to his seat and sat down. He went down, lowered his head, and his long hair spread out on both sides of his face, casting shadows, making his face look like a ghost in the abyss. His pointed pale chin and bright red lips, his eyebrows and eyes were hidden in the shadows. Rise up murderous:

"The Li family is not easy to mess with. Li Zhaoyang is indeed capable..." He sneered, and there was another coughing sound in the hall, and then it became quiet.

When she stumbled out of Murong Chuiqing's palace, Lily's chest bones were still aching. Thinking of the bloody smell that Murong Chuiqing had just smelled on Murong Chuiqing's body, Lily resisted the urge to check what was going on on her body and ran away pretending to be panicked. After leaving the palace where Murong Chuqing was, the cold feeling gradually dissipated. The sun shone on her body, driving away the chill she had just felt from Murong Chuqing's place. Lily's expression became calmer. , she tilted her cheek and glanced at the palace behind her from the corner of her eye. She thought of how Murong Chuqing had gone crazy just now, and then she slowly walked back to her palace.

Walking all the way back, the threatening and cold feeling of being touched by Murong Chuqing slowly dissipated, Lily walked very fast. It took less than two-quarters of an hour to get back to the mansion. She was covered in sweat from walking. The servants in the mansion handed over the handkerchief, and she took it with a trembling wrist. She didn't feel any discomfort before, but now she realized that the hand held by Murong Chuiqing was somewhat bruised. At this time, she could hardly even hold the handkerchief firmly, so she hurriedly changed her hand. I wiped my face carefully, took a deep breath and entered the room when a clear voice came from inside:

"Young City Lord's destiny, I really can't see clearly."

"So, according to Mr. Ygan, can the child be saved?" Mrs. Li's somewhat cold voice sounded immediately. Although her tone sounded leisurely at the moment, there was a hint of nervousness in her words. Still hearing it, she paused. He originally wanted to step forward into the inner room, but suddenly stopped and stood outside the screen without making a sound.

"Tianshan and Zixiao City have a deep relationship. Many years ago, I was favored by the old city lord and made a hexagram for Li's Qi. Madam also knows about the Li family's bloodline, so the population has always been thin. The young city lord's fate is eighteen, which is calamity. But the Young Madam is a variable, and now I can’t see the two variables clearly.” The fortune teller with a clear voice paused, and then continued: “The situation of the Young City Master is unclear now, but it is not a good thing that he has not paid. I will take this opportunity to go back to Tianshan Mountain to explain this matter to my uncle, and ask my uncle to go down the mountain and make a divination for the young city lord. It will take half a month at most. I will definitely go to Zixiao City in ten days at least."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Gan." Mrs. Li sighed. Lily lowered her head and stood outside the screen without moving. After a while, Mrs. Li from inside the room called out: "Come in."

Although Lily's steps were light when she came back, she still startled the two people in the room. It's just that Mrs. Li was worried about her son at that time and didn't have time to call Lily in. At this moment Lily heard her call and went in through the screen. Mr. Nagant was nowhere to be seen and had obviously left.

Mrs. Li stood beside the bed with a cold expression.

"It's him." Lily replied as soon as she entered the inner room. When Mrs. Li heard this, her eyes suddenly tightened: "Zixiao City has no grudge against the Murong family. It's really him."

Recently, when Li Yanxi was in a coma, the Shaocheng Lord's Mansion was attacked one after another. Li Zhaocheng was furious, but the person behind the assassination was not caught.

The Li family in Zixiao City is famous all over the world. Few people in the world can match the unique skills of the Li family. They dare to carry out assassinations on the Li family's territory and avoid Li Zhaocheng's sight. This is not easy. There are people in the world today who dare to attack the Li family. , the songs can be counted. With his son so ill, Li Zhaocheng really couldn't figure out who would want to kill him. Li Yanxi would not live to be eighteen, and everyone in the world knew that no one would bother to kill a dying man. Wouldn't it be a waste of effort? After repeated inquiries, it was found that there were not many people in the world who had such skill and were so elusive. Not only was this person outstanding in martial arts, he also came and went without a trace. While Li Zhaocheng sent people to search for this person privately, he also sent his younger brother Li Zhaoyang to ambush Li Yanxi. In the mansion, the man in black from the night before came again and was repelled by Li Zhaoyang. Although he was injured, Li Zhaoyang was unable to keep this man. Afterwards, Li Zhaocheng sent people to search Zixiao City again, but he couldn't find this man. Traces come.

This man neither flew to the sky nor escaped from the earth, nor did his martial arts reach the state of turning into a void, but Li Zhaocheng could not find him. This had to frighten Li Zhaocheng. It was related to his son's wealth and life. He thought about it over and over again, and asked for help. Mr. Tianshan Gan helped with divination, but he divined the location of the villain, and he actually came from the main palace of Zixiao City.

The Li family guarded one side and established themselves as kings. The children in the city were loyal to the Li family. There was no way that there would be such a person who wanted to kill Li Yanxi. After thinking about it, Li Zhaocheng thought of Murong Chuqing, the only outsider in the Li family's palace. .

As the next leader of the Murong family, Murong Chuiqing has outstanding martial arts skills. If it is really him, it is indeed possible that he can fight with Li Zhaoyang without dying. However, the eldest daughter of the Murong family, Murong Xiang'er, has been promised to Li Zhaoyang as his wife, and the family is married to Qin Jin. So good, now Li Yanxi married Lily again, and the two families became more intimate. Li Zhaocheng couldn't figure out why Murong Chuqing would attack his son.

The night before yesterday, Li Zhaoyang slashed Murong Chuiqing to death with a sword. Li Zhaocheng tested it and found that Murong Chuiqing was not injured. Moreover, he did not know whether Murong Chuiqing was truly innocent or if he had a secretive mind. Li Zhaocheng's tests yielded no results. Not only was he watertight, There was no clue that this matter really had nothing to do with him. After all, there was still an in-law relationship. It was impossible for Li Zhaocheng to act without authorization before the matter was clear. What's more, the Li family really didn't understand the reason why Murong Chuiqing took action against Li Yanxi. Therefore, today Murong Chuiqing proposed When he was about to leave Zixiao City and wanted to see his sister Lily again, Li Zhaocheng agreed, hoping that Lily would give it a try.

It was about Li Yanxi's life, so Lily naturally agreed. In fact, when she stepped into Murong Chuiqing's palace, she had already felt the smell of blood on Murong Chuiqing's body, and knew that he was probably the one injured by Li Zhaoyang. He was covered in blood at that time. The anger was so strong that I don't know what method he used to escape Li Zhaocheng's eyes.

"According to Zhaoyang, those who can escape from him have extremely high martial arts skills and have not yet used the Murong family's secret skills. Murong's favor should not be underestimated." Mrs. Li's face was a little ugly, and she held her hand: "The Li family and the Murong family have always known each other. There is no grievance or enmity, so he attacked Yanxi, is it because of Murong Xiang'er?"

Murong Xiang'er and Li Zhaoyang had already decided to get married, and it hadn't been long since they were divorced. Madam Li couldn't help but wonder if Murong Chuiqing wanted to kill Li Yanxi because once her son died, Zixiao City would have no choice but to marry him in the future. In Li Zhaoyang's hands, he was paving the way for Murong Xiang'er.

At this moment, Murong Xiang'er hasn't come through the door yet, but Mrs. Li's heart has suddenly grown disgusted with this sister-in-law, whom she originally had a good impression of: "I'm going to tell your father to detain Murong and his entourage, thank you for your hard work."

How could Mrs. Li allow Murong Chuiqing to escape? After confirming that he was the murderer, even if he attempted murder, the Li family was not that easy to mess with. What's more, Murong Chuiqing's target was his own son, so Mrs. Li would not tolerate him. Lily hurried back to detain Murong Chuiqing. Lily nodded and sat beside the bed. There was no trace of Mrs. Li in the room anymore, she had obviously left.

In fact, Lily didn't feel that Murong Chuqing wanted to kill Li Yanxi because of Murong Xiang'er. From Lily's memory in the past, Murong Chuqing and Murong Xiang'er were two extremes. The relationship between the two siblings was not harmonious, but Li Yanxi's situation at this time Unknown, Lily didn't want to care about the nonsense between the two brothers and sisters, so the idea swirled in her mind. After she remembered it, she didn't think about it anymore.

But in the end, the Li family was not able to keep Murong Chuiqing here. Not long after Lily left, Murong and his party had already left Zixiao City. When Mrs. Li confirmed the news and rushed back to detain Murong Chuiqing, she rushed there. It came up empty.

Ten days later, the Tianshan fortune teller who left did not make it back in time. In the past few days, Lily hardly dared to close her eyes, let alone practicing martial arts. She was afraid that he would disappear in the blink of an eye. She remembered clearly, When she entered the mission, Li Yanxi once said that if the mission was not completed and died during the mission, it would be a real disappearance. Li Yanxi followed her into the mission. I wonder if she would be sanctioned by the rules. This time she really regretted it. She shouldn't have let Li Yanxi go into the mission with her. If she had known this earlier, she would definitely not have let Li Yanxi take this risk. Thinking about him having an enemy again, Lily felt regretful. He was so shocked that he also had murderous intentions towards Murong Chuiqing.

If he hadn't gone crazy and bit himself that day, Li Yanxi wouldn't have become so sleepy in order to heal her wounds.

"Young madam, let's have some food first." She stayed by Li Yanxi's side and did not dare to leave. The servants in Zixiao City were naturally moved by this, thinking that she was worried about the young city lord's health, but what Lily was really worried about was Li Yanxi heard someone talking at this moment. She couldn't take her eyes away from Li Yanxi's face and asked: "Is Mr. Gan back?" (To be continued~^~)

PS: The first update. . . I’ve read the comments in the book review area over the past two days, but I’m also a little helpless. I don’t want to spoil anything, so that’s all... The early foreshadowing is all useful, it is to lead out the main plot later, such as the previous chapter. Inside, there was an assassin coming to Li Yanxi's palace. He mentioned it in one sentence, but no one noticed it. Everyone's focus was on Lily Weimao going to see Murong Chong for his favor. Moreover, Murong Chuqing didn't hit Lily the first time, he just bit her. He didn't hit her the second time, he grabbed her hand and stabbed himself twice. I saw some girls said that the wife of the city lord was the one who tortured Lily. No matter how abnormal it is, if you don’t read the book carefully, I won’t explain it in the future. . . I originally wanted to be cute and ask for votes, but it turned out to be a bit sad. . .
