At this moment, a shout came from outside, "It's not that easy for me to die!"
Hearing this, everyone turned their heads to the door, and Li Tong even looked in disbelief.
Li Ba, why is he back?
"Father!"
Li Ba glared at Li Tong, then quickly walked into the hall, kowtowed to Li Yuan, and said: "I am incompetent and failed to save the three deacons, but fortunately I did not disgrace my life and brought back a page of boxing records!"
After saying that, he took out the boxing manual and accepted it respectfully.
"Okay, okay!"
Li Yuan laughed heartily, "As expected of my son!"
He looked at the boxing manual carefully, and the smile on his face became even stronger.
After laughing for a moment, he remembered something and asked: "I heard that Binhai has an iron wall and Ye Jiuzhou is unpredictable. How did you escape?"
"What's so mysterious? It's just a bluff!"
Li Badao: "Don't look at that Ye Jiuzhou who looks like he has a lot of wisdom on the surface and is confident in whatever he does. In fact, he is just pretending. As soon as he returns to Binhai, he is as panicked as an ant on a hot pot.
Of course I was negligent, so I took advantage of his unpreparedness, plotted against him, and took advantage of the chaos on the coast to escape."
At this point, he knelt down again, "My child is useless, I can't fight against Ye Jiuzhou, so I can only plot against you to embarrass the Li family. Please forgive me, father."
"If a man uses his wits instead of his strength, how could my father blame you?"
Li Yuan helped him up and said, "You did a great job when you outsmarted the strong, and when you captured the weak alive, you did a great job!"
He patted Li Ba's shoulder heavily, with unconcealed praise in his eyes.
"Has Ye Jiuzhou really been plotted against you?"
Li Tong came over.
He had carefully investigated Ye Jiuzhou's details and found that even Gu Huai and the three deacons were no match for him. Even his father was afraid of him. How could Li Ba plot against him?
"Of course."
Li Badao: "It's all because of his carelessness that he gave me a chance. However, I also suffered a big loss. Not only did I have several broken ribs, I also vomited several mouthfuls of blood."
After that, he pretended to cough a few times.
Li Yuan was startled and quickly came over to take his pulse.
Li Ba glanced at Li Tong without leaving any trace, with a smile on his face.
Because he knew that his bitter meat machine worked, his position in his father's mind had obviously improved again.
At the same time, he was also secretly planning how to design Li Tong.
This guy actually dared to send Thuja to assassinate him, without any concern for brotherhood. Naturally, Li Ba would not show mercy to him.
"The second brother is really awesome. The younger brother is willing to be defeated. I have to ask my elder brother to give me more advice in the future!"
Li Tong's face immediately changed his expression, and he complimented: "Our Li family cannot lack you as the backbone!"
"Of course, who makes me the eldest brother?"
Li Badao: "In our family, apart from the eldest sister, I am the oldest. Of course I should work more. After all, I will have to shoulder the burden of the family in the future."
After hearing this, Li Tong frowned, and when he took a peek, he saw that instead of showing any displeasure on his father's face, he even looked a little proud.
Li Tong felt even more uncomfortable.
Only then did he realize that his father had long regarded Li Ba as his future successor.
"Okay, what you two said is very good. You are indeed a good son of my Li family. My father has some things to deal with. You two haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's keep in touch."
After saying that, Li Yuan left with the boxing manual.
As soon as he took off, the smiles on Li Ba and Li Tong's faces disappeared at the same time.
"My fourth brother must be very busy during these times when I am away, right?"
Li Ba's words are full of puns.
"It's all as it should be."
Li Tongtong: "Fortunately, my second brother came back in time. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to bear the burden of the Li family alone. Thanks to my father who loves you. If it were someone else who was captured by Ye Jiuzhou, what would happen to you?"
?”
Li Yuan is not here, so he can speak more casually.
The two brothers have always been like this, so Li Ba was not angry, but asked: "I heard that when Ye Jiuzhou came to the Li family, everyone resisted the enemy bravely, but the fourth brother was missing. I wonder what you did? You
Are you afraid that your legs are weak and you shouldn't go out?"
"you……"
Li Tong was furious.
Before he could speak, Li Ba said: "This Ye Jiuzhou is indeed powerful. I am not his opponent, but so what? I have only fought with him and injured him. Unlike some people who shrink back when disaster strikes.
If the Li family is left in the hands of such people, it will be destroyed sooner or later!"
At this time, Li Tong's face had completely turned purple.
"By the way, where is Rock Cypress?"
Li Ba took a sip of tea and said, "Aren't you two inseparable? Why didn't I see him today?"
Li Tong's face darkened and he said in a deep voice, "I don't know what second brother means."
"Don't you understand? Forget it, I'm just worried about you."
Li Ba smiled and said: "That Ye Jiuzhou is not simple. He can come here for the first time and he can come for the second time. I'm afraid that when he comes again, there will be no one around you to protect you, and that will be terrible."
After that, he laughed loudly and left, just like a general returning in triumph.
Looking at his back, Li Tong's eyes revealed a fierce look.
"Thuja, useless thing!"
These words were basically squeezed out from between his teeth.
He originally thought that with Thuja taking action, he would be able to succeed immediately, but it seemed that Thuja had obviously failed.
It's better now.
Li Ba not only successfully escaped from danger, but also brought back a page of boxing records and made great achievements. Li Tong didn't know when and how long it would take for him to find the next opportunity.
On the other side, Li Ba did not go back to his room to rest, but went directly to the dungeon.
"Congratulations, young master, for returning safely!"
A long way away, several guards at the door came over to shout.
Among the four children of the Li family, only Li Ba can be called the young master!
Li Ba nodded and said, "Open the door, I want to see my aunt."
"Young Master, this... the master has ordered it, without him..."
"Don't my words work?"
Li Ba glared at him and said, "I just want to see my aunt. Should such a trivial matter disturb my father?"
Hearing this, several guards did not dare to speak and quickly opened the dungeon.
Because they all know that Li Ba is the person with the best chance to take over as the head of the family, and no one wants to offend him.
What's more, it's just a meeting. As long as it doesn't spread, nothing will happen.
Nothing in the stone room changed. Li Xuan was still sitting there applying makeup carefully, as if he didn't know that his lover was dead.
