Lu Zizhong sat on the chair, feeling extremely depressed. He glared coldly outside, and many onlookers quickly backed away.
As for the coffin shop business, I didn't even dare to reply.
"Master Lu, you seem to have lost." Xu Mu sneered. This is called giving back to others. If Lu Zizhong wants to force Si Hu to death, then he will also force Lu Zizhong to death.
In this world, only those who are desperate are brave enough to travel everywhere.
Lu Zizhong didn't answer, only looked sideways.
Not long after, Wei Chun, the thief who was taken to the street, made a sound that sounded very remorseful.
"Everyone, I was the one who deceived you. I killed the people in Buzhuang. I plead guilty. I, Wei Chun, plead guilty!"
"Little boss, you saw it." Lu Zizhong smiled coldly, "This big thief confessed his crime on his own. No matter how much you say, it will be in vain. Why don't you and I each take a step back and forget about today's matter?"
Xu Mu stood firmly and then laughed loudly.
Lu Zizhong laughed so hard that he felt panicked again.
"In order to survive, this big thief tried his best to find Si Hu as a guarantee. Now he is fine. Hearing that Mr. Lu was planning to commit suicide, he suddenly confessed. People who don't know better think that Mr. Lu is paying for the murder."
The people surrounding him all looked frightened.
Obviously, Xu Mu's words are very reasonable. The big thief on the ground, one behind the other, is too different.
"Don't talk nonsense." Lu Zizhong gritted his teeth.
If the murder case is confirmed, not only will his career be ruined, but the entire Lu family will also be implicated.
Where did this little boss come from? Damn it.
"Mr. Lu, the neighbors are all waiting. Could you please hurry up?" Xu Mu refused to retreat. His relationship with the four major households was now ruined, so there was no point in forcing one of them to death.
Maybe it will have the effect of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys.
"Master Xu, please take a step to speak." Lu Zizhong stood up quietly, and even his title changed before he knew it.
"If you want to say it, say it here."
Here, how could Lu Zizhong dare to say that he wanted to bribe Xu Mu?
"In this case, I will help Mr. Lu pick up the knife." Xu Mu coldly took a few steps forward, picked up the dagger and handed it to Lu Zizhong.
"I respectfully invite Mr. Lu to die!"
Jiang Caiwei and others were extremely happy. Si Hu stood up from the ground. Seeing this scene, he beat his chest and cried again.
Lu Zizhong lowered his hands and kept shaking. The attentive flower girl also covered her face in haste and took a few steps back.
"Mr. Lu, this time, the red letter is notarized. Otherwise, I can only take this notarization and go to the chief office in Changyang."
Lu Zizhong raised his eyes and looked at Xu Mu with eyes full of anger.
"Sir." Lu Yuan hurriedly approached and whispered.
After hearing this, Lu Zizhong's face first became happy, and then turned pale.
"Get the knife."
Everyone present was frightened when they heard this.
Even Xu Mu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this playboy could be so brave.
"My little boss, please be optimistic. I promise you... cut the belly."
Lu Zizhong smiled evilly and raised his hand, pointing at Xu Mu, "Don't worry, I, Lu Zizhong, can't be a ghost and I can't knock on your door in the middle of the night."
"But mountains and rivers meet each other. Tangjiang City doesn't care whether it's big or not. Now that we have time, let's continue playing -"
"belch."
The short knife was cut, and the lifted robe was instantly soaked with blood.
Looking closer, Xu Mu frowned.
This is not a dissection, it is clearly just a shallow cut.
"I mentioned cutting my belly before, but I didn't say how deep it was to be measured... I, Lu Zizhong, have accepted the bet."
Lu Zizhong wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and dropped the short knife on the ground.
"So, it's over."
Faintly, Xu Mu felt that the young master in front of him was becoming more and more terrifying.
"My little boss, I still have something to say."
"No, I admire you." Xu Mu said coldly.
The people watching behind looked at Lu Zizhong with more or less contempt.
"Official Yu, tear up the notarization with the red letter." Lu Zizhong took a slow breath and sat back on the chair.
The old official hurriedly grabbed the red letter notarization and tore it into pieces several times. Lu Yuan was so frightened that he sent people to look for gold sore medicine and the nearest doctor.
"Little boss, I'm angry." Lu Zizhong coughed up blood and seemed to be smiling.
"Mr. Lu, I'm angry too."
"Let's go today. Don't leave Tangjiang if you are brave enough."
Xu Mu laughed angrily, "Young Master, please don't scare me. I, Xu Mu, will take care of this bowl of food for the four major households."
"Okay, I'll tell you."
…
Taking the villagers with him, Xu Mu walked coldly back to the wine shop at the ferry.
Although it is understandable for a gentleman to avoid disaster, but where can he retreat to? Moreover, no matter where he retreats, there will eventually be a pack of wolves like the four major households. Driven by interests, they will definitely find ways to block his way.
"Brother Mu, it's all my fault."
As soon as he entered the village, Si Hu immediately knelt down on the ground. The huge sound of pressing the ground shocked the sleeping old scholar, shouting "Di people are knocking on the pass" and ran out like crazy.
"Get up." Xu Mu said solemnly. From the beginning to the end, he never blamed Si Hu. With Si Hu's pure and reckless temperament, it was easy to be lured into a trap.
"Remember, if you feel something is wrong from now on, you can tell me. If I'm not here, tell your sister-in-law."
"Oh yes, I want to thank my sister-in-law!" Si Hu knelt down and moved to the other direction to bow to Jiang Caiwei.
Jiang Caiwei was helpless and wanted to pull Si Hu up, but she couldn't pull such a big man.
"Brother Tiger, there is also a bow dog. If someone hadn't shot your knife away, you would have cut your belly."
When Si Hu heard this, he quickly moved in another direction.
Xu Mu covered his forehead. Sure enough, God was fair. He gave Si Hu natural powers, but took away half of his brain.
"Xu Lang, how is the grain harvest going?" Jiang Caiwei ignored her own wetness and hurriedly found a clean linen towel and wiped Xu Mu's body.
"Let Chen Sheng stay over there to collect grain." Xu Mu originally wanted to say something about Di Ma, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out.
There are indeed enough things about Zhuangzi today. He has offended four major households, and there may be more bullshit that will come one after another.
"Caiwei, go change your clothes first."
Raising his head and looking at Jiang Caiwei who was already trembling, Xu Mu couldn't bear it.
If it were any other woman, she would not dare to carry an old hatchet and go to the official office to ask for someone.
"Xu Lang, are you okay?"
"It's okay, don't worry."
Jiang Caiwei didn't know that Xu Mu, who was not good at riding horses, had a swollen buttocks all the way back from riding. He didn't dare to show his timidity just now in front of Guanfang Street, so he persisted until now.
However, as early as in Fengcheng, if Lu Zizhong had not poked the horse and frightened the snake, he would not have thought that something had happened.
Lu Zizhong prides himself on being good at strategizing, but little does he know that his cleverness can lead to misunderstandings.
If not, Xu Mu would not have rushed all the way in the rain and hurried back to Tangjiang City.
