Since returning to Moon Island, Li Deming has been a little uneasy.
The imperial court was about to launch a general attack on Moon Island, and he didn't need to worry about this mess or think about those messy things.
Logically speaking, he should be very happy.
However, at this moment, he was not happy at all.
He even became extremely confused.
Zhang Suxing asked him to come to Moon Island in person because he wanted him to control the entire situation as soon as possible and firmly control Moon Island in his hands.
Everything was going very smoothly, but Zhao Dachui, who had always obeyed his words, suddenly became very wary of himself.
Then, it gradually lost control.
He cannot fully control Zhao Dachui, and he cannot fully control Moon Island.
Although he had used many methods, and even though Zhao Dachui had admired him very much before, the gangsters on the island had not yet fully recognized him, a newcomer who had just arrived on the island.
This made Li Deming's situation a little embarrassing.
But at this time, the officers and soldiers besieging Moon Island changed their previous attitude and launched a long-term siege of Moon Island, which suddenly made Moon Island, which was not rich in the first place, extremely difficult.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken such a big risk to steal the Duan family's secret brewing recipe, set up a Laozi Winery, or cooperate with Sun Dafu.
He always felt that this was a bad move, but he had to make it.
The island is really too poor.
He was also complaining about those people, who were too greedy.
The predicament that Moon Island is in today is all caused by the greed of those people.
That day, Xiufeng kidnapped Duan Wenjun on the orders of his boss. The Duan family sold most of their property to redeem him.
That time, Guofeng got a lot of money.
It's just that all this money ended up in the hands of greedy people, and not much was left on the island.
Otherwise, why would he take risks to raise money and food at such a tense time?
In particular, he didn't expect that he would almost lose his life just because of such a stupid move as stealing the formula.
After rushing back to Gong County from Wangjiang, he was intercepted by Luo Liangping.
If he really takes action, Luo Liangping will definitely not be his opponent.
However, he discovered that there were several tails behind him, which were unclear whether they were friend or foe.
Therefore, he simply used the trick and became Luo Liangping's "captive" obediently, letting them escort him back to Duanjiapu without exposing his strength.
Then, those few came out and rescued Luo Liangping from his hands.
Those people claimed to be people sent by Zhang Suxing to protect him, but he immediately discovered something was wrong.
Because, from the tattoos on those people's arms, he knew the identities of their shadow disciples.
More importantly, at the county government office in Gong County, he also discovered that Sun Dafu wanted to harm him.
If he hadn't been hiding and pretending to be powerless, he wouldn't have had the chance to sneak attack on those shadow disciples that night.
If he couldn't make a successful sneak attack and kill those few people from the Shadow Sect, then that night, it might not be those people lying in the Gongxian County Government Office, but him, Li Deming.
The appearance of the shadow disciple made him very alert and also made him very worried.
He knew that he had been targeted.
In particular, being targeted by people from the Shadow Sect is not a good thing.
In particular, although he was very reluctant to believe it, once some thoughts were formed in his mind, it would be difficult to erase them.
He began to suspect that the people from the Shadow Gate did not lie to him.
They were all sent by Zhang Suxing, but they were not protecting him, but killing him.
He began to suspect that the reason why Sun Dafu wanted to kill him was really related to Zhang Suxing.
Think about it, if Moon Island ceases to exist, then the value of its existence will be gone.
He might even become someone who might expose Zhang Suxing.
The cunning rabbit dies and the lackey thrives.
Li Deming already deeply felt the deep meaning of this sentence at this moment.
He held the book in his hand, but he had no interest in reading at all, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
The next moment, a sharp sword with a cold light was placed on his neck.
A figure was stretched out by the candlelight and reflected on the ground in front of the desk.
Li Deming has always been very confident in his skills.
In Gongxian County Government, he was able to kill eight people with one sword, and was able to destroy the three masters of the Shadow Sect with one sword. His strength was definitely not simple.
In particular, not long ago, he had reached the threshold of entry from the top of the first-class.
However, at this moment, someone actually sneaked into his study quietly and put a sword on his neck quietly, which had to shock him.
He knew that if he hadn't just fallen into deep thought, if he hadn't been upset and relaxed his vigilance just now, this sword would not have landed on his neck.
A boy of eighteen or nineteen slowly walked out of the darkness and sat on the chair opposite the desk.
Li Deming did not know this young man.
However, looking at the faint smile on his face and feeling the sinister sharp sword at his neck, he suddenly smiled.
He had already guessed who was sitting in front of him.
"Li Deming, Uncle De, we have known each other for a long time, and we finally meet." Duan Wenjun looked at Li Deming with a smile on his face and spoke first.
This was the first time he had seen Li Deming. This middle-aged man who looked a little skinny was somewhat different from what he had imagined.
He originally thought that when Mo Shoucheng's sword was placed on his neck and when he sat in front of him, Li Deming would be very nervous.
But unexpectedly, Li Deming was just stunned for a moment, and then looked calm and calm, not panicking at all.
However, in an instant, there was a hint of tiredness on his face, making the wrinkles on his temples seem even deeper.
However, Duan Wenjun immediately understood his calmness.
With his skills at the Gongxian County Government and Mo Shoucheng's sword, it was impossible to subdue him so easily.
Li Deming is confident.
Perhaps, he is not worried or afraid.
His face looked very plain, he looked at Duan Wenjun and smiled and said, "Li has also admired the name of Young Master Duan for a long time. Young Master Duan really has great powers, you can even come and go freely on Moon Island."
"Excellent." Duan Wenjun clasped his fists, "Uncle De, let's not talk secretly. I want to know, who instigated you to arrange for a burst of wind to kidnap me? Also, who is trying to kill me?"
"Master Duan, do you think I can say it?" Li Mingde smiled.
"Do you still have the need to protect your master now?" Duan Wenjun shook his head, "You killed the Gong County magistrate. You must have known that your master can no longer keep you."
Li Deming's face twitched slightly, revealing a wry smile, "This is Li's own choice. When I chose this path, I could have guessed today's ending."
Duan Wenjun let out a long sigh, "Uncle De's spirit of looking forward to death is really admirable. But after you die, who will worship the river temple at the head of Fushui Island? Also, the temple The master's wife and her young apprentice..."
Duan Wenjun seemed to say it casually, but Li Deming's heart was filled with turmoil.
He struggled and stood up suddenly, roaring, "Duan Wenjun, no harm to your family, they are innocent."
Mo Shoucheng pushed him back to his seat, and Duan Wenjun's words continued, "I know it won't harm my family, but it's not me who wants to kill them, but the people of the Shadow Sect."
Li Deming's face changed greatly. "People from the Shadow Gate? Did they find them? Why did they kill them?"
"Uncle De, you must know better than us why the people of the Shadow Sect want to kill them. Why ask me?" Duan Wenjun showed a wry smile. "But you guessed it right. The people of the Shadow Sect not only found them. , and even had a fight with the people from Yujianmen."
"A fight with someone from Yujianmen?" Li Deming was stunned.
"Not bad!" Duan Wenjun nodded, "Uncle De, it's time for you to tell me the truth now, right?"
"Why should I believe you?" Li Deming was still very alert.
"Let me show you this!" Duan Wenjun took out a jade pendant from his arms and handed it over.
Li Deming took the jade pendant and his whole body began to tremble.
There were two people living in the river temple at the head of Fushui Island. They were the two closest people to him in the world.
Master Jingxuan, that is his married wife.
That little girl is Xiao Qi, his and Jing Xuan's child.
And this jade pendant should have been in the hands of Master Jingxuan.
This is not an ordinary jade pendant, but a blood jade.
The sculpture is of two small jumping fish, vivid and lifelike.
It is an heirloom of the Li family.
When Li Mingde's father gave it to him, he once said that there was a huge secret hidden in it.
As for what the secret is, Li Deming has not found out the answer after so many years.
Li Deming knew that what he had done over the years was not visible to the public, so he did not want to implicate Jingxuan, Xiaoqi and his daughter.
In order to deceive others, he arranged for the two of them to live in the Heshen Temple at the head of Fushui Island.
The Pisces jade pendant was the token that he personally gave to Jing Xuan.
If the two of them were in danger, they would have someone bring the Pisces jade pendant to him.
Only Jing Xuan knows the meaning of the Pisces Jade Pendant.
At this moment, seeing Duan Wenjun take out the Pisces jade pendant, Li Deming already half believed him.
"Are you two okay?" Li Deming's tone became very low.
He stared at the Pisces jade pendant in his hand, looking a little decadent.
He started to make calculations in his mind.
Can you believe Duan Wenjun's words or not?
