"If I guessed correctly, it should be like this. Li Siming must have thought so when he did this." Zhong Wuchen said, then turned to look at Gu Yuan and sat down again.
"Please tell me carefully what happened before."
Gu Yuan scratched his head, he didn't know where to start.
But suddenly, Gu Yuan thought of it.
"Speaking of which... we saw a deep pit outside the city before. Along with the pit, there was a red light that even dyed the sky red for half a day, but it was fleeting."
"Red light... deep pit..." Zhong Wuchen knitted his brows together, stringing together the information.
After a while, it slowly relaxed again.
"That's right, it's a sacrifice, tut... The other party must be crazy. They want to complete the sacrifice in Star City. They are simply seeking death... No!" He suddenly realized something, "Their target is Li Siming!"
Gu Yuan became even more nervous when he heard this.
"What do you mean, sir?"
Zhong Wuchen didn't say much, but stood up again.
"Drive and take me to Li Siming."
"Yes!" Looking at Zhong Wuchen's serious face, Gu Yuan did not dare to hesitate and quickly drove Zhong Wuchen to Hong Romantic.
However, Gu Yuan did not go up.
"Just wait for me here."
Gu Yuan nodded, feeling a little depressed. It seemed that he couldn't listen to the next conversation between his husband and Uncle Li...
In Red Romance, no one else is here except Luo Yin.
However, Luo Yin is a think tank and must know more than himself. If asked, the other party will most likely give an answer.
But thinking of his serious expression before, Gu Yuan still refrained from asking.
upstairs.
Zhong Wuchen directly opened the door of Li Siming's office.
Li Siming was still drinking tea, and was a little surprised when he saw him.
"You came very suddenly. If you want to see me, let Gu Yuan inform you and I'll be there."
Zhong Wuchen didn't seem to have the intention to chat with Li Siming, but said seriously: "The demon clan wants to complete the sacrifice in Star City. Bao Buqi wants to revive the soul of a certain demon clan powerful soul. If they can complete the sacrifice, they must also have masters. here."
"Mr. Zhong is really amazing. He knows everything about the world without leaving home." Li Siming smiled.
He wasn't that surprised either.
After all, Zhong Wuchen was once the brightest star in the Great Xia Kingdom, known as an invincible being in the world. His student Gu Yuan was involved in so many things. As long as he sorted out the information he got from Gu Yuan, the other party could think of a lot.
Zhong Wuchen sat down and said with a dark face, "Did you ask for help?"
"Asking for help? With whom? The capital?" Li Siming asked with a smile.
"Stupid!" Zhong Wuchen angrily rebuked, "They chose Star City because they obviously came here for you. How capable are you, Li Siming? As long as they calculate, they can know that you will go to Northern Xinjiang soon. Now, Killing you is the best option."
Li Siming responded silently.
No agreement, no objection.
Zhong Wuchen muttered: "You are sitting in Star City, and when the demon clan sacrifices, you must be at the forefront. As long as I kill you, even if the demon clan pays a huge price, it will be worth it..."
"That's what I said, but now, don't I already know?" Li Siming said, "As long as the demons are hunted down, they will have no chance to sacrifice. Besides, how can the powerful souls of the demons be revived so easily? , the success rate is inherently extremely low.”
Zhong Wuchen sighed with emotion: "You can keep your composure."
"Shuai Zhong." Li Siming suddenly became serious, "Have you ever thought that after the demon clan has been struggling for a long time, I didn't have any backup plan?"
Zhong Wuchen thought for a while and said, "Backup?"
Li Siming smiled and said nothing.
Zhong Wuchen was at a loss.
To be honest, he didn't even know whether the other party was telling the truth or bluffing.
But Li Siming is indeed not the kind of person who is aimless.
"Since you are confident, it is unnecessary for me." Zhong Wuchen said neither lightly nor seriously.
Li Siming poured him a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Zhong Shuai, calm down. Actually, I probably know what the other party's intention is."
Zhong Wuchen thought for a while and then asked: "There are many masters in the capital. In fact, you can invite them over. Why not?"
Li Siming smiled and said nothing.
Zhong Wuchen shook his head, was too lazy to say anything, got up and left.
Li Siming didn't keep him either.
On the way back, Zhong Wuchen, who was sitting in the back row, said nothing.
Gu Yuan could feel that his husband was not in a good mood.
"Sir, did you have a fight with Uncle Li?"
"No, I just don't understand his thoughts." Zhong Wuchen shook his head and said, "I feel old."
Gu Yuan couldn't laugh or cry: "Are you still old?"
"The mentality is old." Zhong Wuchen breathed out, "Li Siming wants to do something extremely dangerous, like walking a tightrope, but there is a better way to solve the problem, but he is unwilling to do it. I don't understand why."
This made Zhong Wuchen very melancholy.
Gu Yuan smiled and said: "Sir, you are not him after all. You have different ideas. It is normal to have differences. Uncle Li dare not say that he can guess what you are thinking."
"He can guess it." Zhong Wuchen glanced in front of him, "But I can't guess him."
Gu Yuan couldn't understand and didn't dare to speak.
Zhong Wuchen sat in the back row and continued to speculate with his eyes closed: "There must be a reason why he must do this, or in other words, this is also an opportunity for him, but what exactly does he want to seize... As for his I can probably guess the backup plan. After all, this is Star City. If that's the case, why do we need to hunt down demons again..."
"Maybe it's for the stability of Star City?"
Zhong Wuchen exhaled: "Drive your car, what you said is the most impossible."
Gu Yuan: "..."
Is your IQ being looked down upon?
Zhong Wuchen didn't think Gu Yuan was stupid, but the boy didn't understand the article.
Once the sacrifice is started, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for Star City.
Li Siming wanted to give the other party a chance to continue, but also wanted to prevent the success of the sacrifice, like dancing in shackles.
The more I think about it, the more confused I become.
…
In the same unfinished building.
The man in the red cloak reported on the situation in Star City.
"Your Majesty, as you expected, the people from the Demon Suppression Department are still hunting the monsters we created. Li Siming seems smart, but he has fallen into a trap and has not realized that this is a deception you left."
The mysterious man played with the jade walnut in his hand and smiled.
"he knows."
"Your Majesty is so noble... huh?"
"He knew it from the beginning." The mysterious man said lightly, "Don't think that he is as stupid as you. If he really doesn't even realize this, why should we go to all the trouble to kill him?"
"If that's the case, then why does he still..."
"He wanted to pretend he didn't know."
Red cloak: "..."
Otherwise, I'd better jump down from here.
"My subordinates sincerely believe that your Majesty YYDS!" he said suddenly.
"What?"
"Ahem, it's nothing, just a compliment." Red Cloak grinned.
Damn, there are times when you don’t understand?
Feeling comfortable...
