After the disciples of Taiji Mountain learned that the master of Taiji Mountain had indeed been killed, they got into a mess. At first, they just collected the belongings that belonged to them, but slowly evolved into robbing the property of Taiji Mountain. .
The old servant who was loyal to the master of Taiji Mountain saw this and immediately pushed the unconscious Gongsun Jie into the secret room. He wanted to stop those people from taking advantage of the situation, but the end result was that he was chopped into several pieces by those red-eyed guys who were robbing things. piece.
Soon, the initial robbery of property turned into revenge. The disciples of Tai Chi Mountain actually started killing each other, and the methods were cruel, as if they were dealing with sworn enemies.
This phenomenon is enough to show how chaotic the governance of the Taiji Mountain Lords is. It must be because of the injustice of the system that they hold grudges.
When Master Tai Chi was still there, they could only choose to endure it. Now that Master Tai Chi was gone, they naturally had to vent their anger.
Of course, in addition to Taiji Mountain's own disciples, there were also many people from other mountains who also took advantage of the situation, and the most typical one was of course Hunchback Li.
Because he spends a lot of time as a guest in Taiji Mountain and has a close relationship with the owner of Taiji Mountain, he knows where the most precious things in Taiji Mountain are hidden. He even got the key to the secret door from the old servant.
After entering the secret room, Hunchback Li was stunned when he saw the jewels and treasures in the room. He didn't expect that the guy who often cried about his poverty in front of him actually had so many treasures. Naturally, he was not polite and found a big pocket with a lot of treasures. Put a lot of stuff in it.
"Old Camel, what are you doing?" Just as Camel Li was crazily stuffing things into his pockets, an unusually weak voice suddenly came from behind him.
The hunchback Li quickly turned around and saw a rocking chair in the corner of the secret room. Gongsun Jie was sitting on the rocking chair and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
You know, Hunchback Li has always created an image of a worldly master in front of Gongsun Jie, and now he actually let Gongsun Jie see the side of him that loves treasure as much as his life, and he was suddenly very embarrassed.
Hunchback Li slowly stood up from the ground, with an uncertain expression on his face.
Gongsun Jie naturally understood what was going on, and he quickly said: "Old Camel, money is an external possession. It's just what you like. Just take it away, and treat it as my filial piety to you."
It has to be said that Gongsun Jie's approach was very smart. From his true heart, he definitely didn't want the treasures that his ancestors had worked so hard to collect to be given away, but he knew that he was now a bird waiting to be slaughtered in front of Hunchback Li. If the lamb gets angry, he will definitely kill himself.
So Gongsun Jie simply pretended to be very generous. His IQ was indeed not low, but he underestimated the darkness of human nature.
His smartest move would have been to pretend to be dead when he saw Hunchback Li snatching something, because the moment he spoke, he would definitely die.
"Hey, Jie'er, what are you talking about? Am I the kind of person who covets money? It's just because the mountain master was seriously injured outside and needed an elixir to cure him. He told me that the elixir is hidden in this secret room. But he didn’t tell me where exactly it was, so I looked around.”
This reason of Hunchback Li may be justified by others, but it obviously does not work with Gongsun Jie, because he knows that this secret room is not used to store elixirs at all.
But he didn't expose it, he just pretended to be grateful and said: "Thank you, Mr. Camel. When I recover in the future, I will definitely repay you twice as much."
The hunchback Li walked slowly towards Gongsun Jie. As he walked, he said with a smile: "Based on the friendship between me and the mountain master, I can't say anything in return. Let me help you look at your injuries."
