The sword of crossing the sky

Chapter 248

After Li You laughed, he said to Su Mu with a serious expression: "Brother Mu, Li came here this time to pass on news about the whereabouts of Su Mu, the number one on the list, to Zheng Jiatong."

"Brother Li, please speak. Mu is all ears."

"There is no trace of sumu from the offshore area near the inland of the Central Plains to Turtle Island, so the Zheng family doesn't need to send people to search this area."

"Brother Li, it's not that Mu doubted Huanzhulou's ability, but in such a short period of time, it was confirmed that there is no trace of Su Mu in such a large area?"

Li You paused for a moment when he heard the words, and then said with a smile: "Under normal circumstances, Huanzhulou alone is really powerless, but Huanzhulou's family is not the only ones searching for the traces of sumu this time, so there is such a rapid progress."

Su Mu nodded pretending to be clear, and then asked with just the right suspicion: "Who is this Su Mu? I'm afraid it's impossible to trigger such a large-scale manhunt just by being at the top of the list, right? Even the six merchants and the nine merchants are implicated. Come in."

Li You paused. This was the first overseas force to ask this question. As for the reason, it is not impossible to say. When entrusting these East China Sea forces, the author may reveal some information when necessary to mobilize the enthusiasm of these overseas family forces.

But Li You didn't speak immediately, but looked around.

Su Mu waved his hand clearly, greeted the maid in the living room and saluted respectfully, then exited the living room one after another.

"Brother Mu, the following description is just some guesswork by someone Li, and it may not be true." Li You said to Su Mu after pondering for a moment.

Su Mu nodded, and said seriously: "Brother Li, don't worry, I'll take care of myself."

"Su Mu, as the eldest brother of the true disciple of Tiansha Sect, the head of the Four Devil Sects, defeated many young talents in the world in the talent ranking competition held by Shaolin Temple, and won the top spot in the talent list. At the same time, the reward for the top spot is also The richness made everyone envious and jealous, and perhaps a hidden danger was planted at this time.

And one of the rewards for the person list is that the ancestors enter the secret realm for one day. Although this day is counted according to the time of the secret realm, one step at a time, one step at a time, especially when the inheritance of the two ways of immortals and ghosts appears in the secret realm Down.

Su Mu was also very lucky, and he reached the sky in one step, and entered the first fairy gate in the age of mythology, Daluo Immortal Palace alone. "

Having said this, Li You stopped talking and stood up to leave.

But before Li You left, Su Mu specially ordered the maid to take a can of Wenxuan tea and hand it over to Li You. After the two parties were polite, Li You accepted Wenxuan tea, left Zheng's house with a smile.

After Su Muxiang was sent to the gate of Zheng's house, he watched Li You's figure gradually disappear on the street with a calm and easy-going expression, then turned and returned to Zheng's house.

Why Su Mu treated Li You with such courtesy and even got some things he already knew from Li You? The reason was simple. His current persona was not that of Su Mu, but Mu Ziyuan, the personal bodyguard of the third young master of the Zheng family.

If he is not in his position, he will not seek his own government.But in its place, you need to find something to do.

The accumulation of trust is reflected in the invisible but obvious details time and time again. Although Zheng Xiuming and Zheng Yunrou didn't care whether he could find traces of Su Mu, they even hinted that Su Mu was being pretentious and perfunctory. Just go over there.

But when he really wanted to act, Su Mu didn't think so. This mission was his first mission as the personal bodyguard of the third young master of the Zheng family. Not to mention completing the mission, but at least he had to make some achievements to stop him Shut some people's mouths, and at the same time improve his status in Zheng Xiuming's heart.

And this time Huanzhulou sent Li You to report Su Mu's real-time news, which in Su Mu's view was an excellent opportunity to make some achievements.

By making friends with Li You, we can obtain some information about Su Mu, information that the Zheng family has not yet discovered, and use this to point out the real reason for rounding up Su Mu, so that the Zheng family will pay attention to it.

Why should we pay attention to it? Wouldn't it be self-contradictory?On the contrary, when the Zheng family began to pay attention to Su Mu, they would find that this task could not be completed in a short time.

It took nearly two months for multiple parties to join forces, but they could only exclude the area from the offshore to Turtle Island. Trying to find Sumu based on the power of the Zheng family alone was tantamount to wishful thinking.

Then it is logical that Su Mu cannot complete the task after one month. No one will blame him for this matter. On the contrary, because he was the first to obtain the important news of Su Mu's inheritance of immortality and reported it in time, it is very likely that he will still be rewarded.

Gaining trust, avoiding responsibility, being rewarded, and avoiding suspicion at the same time can be said to kill multiple birds with one stone.

So after sending Li You away, Su Mu reported the matter to Zheng Xiuming with a serious face.

"What? Su Mu actually obtained the inheritance of the first immortal sect in the immortal way?! Ziyuan, is this serious?!"

Zheng Xiuming stood up in shock, and under the agitation of his heart, he poked out countless ink spots on the landscape painting that was about to be completed.

"Third Young Master, that's true. Li You of the Huanzhu Tower said frankly that Su Mu had the best fortune and entered the Daluo Immortal Palace alone." Su Mu didn't add any embellishments, but reported the truth.

In fact, there is no need to add oil and vinegar, as long as this sentence is related to the subsequent development, the result is already obvious.

"No wonder, no wonder this is the case. I said, why is it that only one person ranked first has provoked so many forces to jointly search, regardless of life and death. I have been unable to figure it out before. It turns out that the crux is here. If this is the case, then it will be said before and after. It makes sense.”

Zheng Xiuming suddenly realized something, subconsciously pacing back and forth talking to himself.

Suddenly his footsteps stopped, Zheng Xiuming looked at Su Mu, and asked seriously: "Ziyuan, who else knows about this?"

"Reporting to the third young master, when Li You talked about this matter with his subordinates, there was only one subordinate, and the rest were dismissed by the subordinates. After sending Li You away, the subordinates came here to report and did not contact anyone else. .”

Su Mu naturally knew what Zheng Xiuming meant, so he told the facts one by one.

"Hahaha, well done, Ziyuan, you have made a great contribution!" Zheng Xiuming smiled and patted Su Mu's shoulder, very happy.

"The third young master is serious, this is what the subordinates should do." Su Mu said with an easygoing smile.

Zheng Xiuming was very satisfied with Su Mu's ability, and even more satisfied with Su Mu's attitude, "Ziyuan, you continue to pay attention to this matter, I will report this to my father first, regardless of whether Su Mu can be found in the end, but at least I know the reason. Then you have the confidence to get a share of the action.”

It is easy to talk about the depth of friendship, but at this moment, Zheng Xiuming's words are already a manifestation of the depth of words, which naturally shows that he has begun to trust Sumu.

Trust is not the same as confidence.

Even when Zheng Geng left, he patted Su Mu on the shoulder to express his closeness. This was the first time Zheng Geng made such an intimate gesture. In the past, when he saw Su Mu, he just nodded and said hello.

It can be seen from this that the news that Su Mu got is very important to the Zheng family.
