Volume Sixteen Han and Tang Dynasties Chapter 1694 Great Exposure(1/2)
Hu You is in Lijia Village now, how could he be in Longcheng? The matter in Longcheng was completely caused by Qin Ming, and it has nothing to do with Hu You.
"Are you going to check on Old Man Li tonight?" Hongye asked Hu You a little worriedly. After Hu You's reminder, Hongye also paid attention to Old Man Li intentionally or unintentionally. She found that what Hu You said was not wrong. Old Man Li not only had very good skills, but also looked at it mysteriously.
Will a person with such good kung fu be just a gardener? Hongye can get the answer only from Hu You. Hu You is also a gardener now, but he is a gardener with purpose. Hu You’s motives are impure, and Old Man Li’s motives are also impure.
"Old man Li probably won't come back tonight."
Old Man Li left the Li Mansion this morning, with the apparent reason being to buy flower seeds. Hu You didn't know whether he was going to buy flower seeds, but he knew that tonight was the best opportunity to check out Old Man Li's house.
"Then I'll go with you." Hongye entered Old Man Li's house. The room gave her a very bad feeling. She didn't want Hu You to go alone and have any accidents.
Hu You smiled and said, "You forgot that you have to cover me. We are not in the house. If there is anything, will it be exposed?"
Because Hong'er's foot injury has been completely healed, Hongye will return to live with Hu You from time to time. In her public identity, she is Hu You's wife, and it will be suspicious that she always stays with Honger and doesn't come back to accompany Hu You.
"Then you must be careful." Hongye also knew that she could not go with Hu You. Old Man Li was just one of the doubts. If it was exposed because of him, they would have been in vain for this trip.
"Don't worry. It's not the first time." Hu You smiled, kissed Hongye's forehead gently, and walked out through the window. For so many days here, Hu You had already figured out the surrounding environment clearly. Not to mention it was dark, even if he closed his eyes, he would not make a mistake.
Old Man Li's house was pitch black, like a monster sitting alone on the empty ground. Hu You observed repeatedly in the distance and confirmed that there was no movement in the room. Then, using the cover of the night to touch Old Man Li's house.
General Tie held the door and Old Man Li's house looked no different from the ordinary people's houses. However, Hu You knew that everything could not only look at the appearance, but must have an in-depth understanding and may know the true appearance.
An ordinary iron lock. For Hu You, this skillful hand, was just a matter of iron wire. However, Hu You did not use iron wire to open the door, because once he did that, Old Man Li would know that someone had entered the room.
"I have used all the methods of wine and white ash, and I still say you have no problem?"
Hu You glanced at the white ash that seemed to be sprinkled in front of the door unintentionally. Not only did he not feel angry, but he sneered.
If you can't walk on the door, then go to the window. Hu You didn't believe that Old Man Li could set up an intrusion-proof shutdown in every aspect.
*********************************************************
"It's really a bit difficult." Hu You successfully entered Old Man Li's house and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Old Man Li is really not simple. Not only the doors, but also the windows are equipped with mechanisms. If Hu You were not a master in this field, it would be very difficult to enter the house without being discovered.
Hu You came down from the roof, but fortunately, all the houses in this era were roofed with tiles. If they were replaced with concrete structures, Hu You would be afraid that he would not be able to get in.
Hu You had heard Hongye describe the situation more than once before. The real scene that he saw was not different from what Hongye said.
There was not much time, and Hu You didn't delay, so he went directly to the Buddha statue that Hongye suspected.
I didn't think it was heard from Hongye's description. When Hu You saw the Buddha statue, he felt the hugeness of the Buddha statue and its protrusion in the room. Old Man Li did not believe in Buddhism. It would be difficult to make a Buddha statue as big as Luo Ba at home.
Hu You carefully looked at the huge Buddha statue, looking up and down, left and right. He even touched the base of the Buddha statue with his hands, but did not find anything.
"Why is this happening?" Hu You looked puzzled. It was said that there should be something wrong with this Buddha statue, but now it seems that there is no problem, which is too inappropriate.
"Did I ignore something?" Hu You didn't believe that he had been in two worlds, and even had Weiwei's expert in the organs, so he could not play with a person with extremely underdeveloped information.
After gritting his teeth, Hu You checked the Buddha statue again, but still found nothing. This made him very depressed. These days, he has been thinking about this big Buddha statue every day.
"Maybe it was a mistake in the judgment, the secret was not here." Hu You was not the kind of stubborn, and he insisted on hanging himself on a tree, and he was unwilling to try another tree if he died.
Since there is nothing found in the Buddha statue, let’s look at other places. Old Man Li’s house is not very big, except for the Buddha statue, there is only a bed. There is nothing to check for that bed at first glance. Hu You spent half the time than the Buddha statue to check the entire house, and it was all clear.
"Is Old Man Li just a hidden master, not as he thought?"
He had already checked everything inside and outside the house, but there was no gain. While Hu You was unwilling to give up, he also became suspicious of his judgment.
"But if there is really no secret in this room, why did Old Man Li be so careful?"
Hu You couldn't figure it out anyway. Just as he was about to see if there was something suspicious, he heard footsteps coming from outside the house.
"It's not that dark, is Old Man Li actually back?"
*********************************************************
On the beam of the house, Hu You crawled like a mouse. When the sound came from outside the door was already very close, Hu You had no time to slip out and restored the roof to its original state. He could only take the risk of staying in the house and find a way to appear when he had the chance.
For a master of kung fu, it is a very risky thing for Hu You to hide on the beam of the house like this. Because even if he can control his breathing, he cannot control his heart. In such a quiet room, a master of kung fu will definitely find Hu You's existence once he becomes suspicious.
But now, Hu You has no choice. The only thing you can bet is that Old Man Li did not find any traces of someone coming in the house.
Any bet is a win or a loss. However, Hu You's luck is pretty good. He believes that this time, luck will also stand on his side.
While the iron lock was opened, the door of the house was also pushed open. Hu You did not dare to look at the other side of the door. The masters were all sensing, and their gazes were easily exposed. Hu You had experience in this area, so he naturally would not do such a stupid thing.
The sound of footsteps reached Hu You's ears, and a hint of surprise flashed across Hu You's face. Because he could hear the sound of footsteps. There were not one person recently, but two.
"Sit down." Old Man Li's voice came into Hu You's ears. Hu You was very familiar with this voice, but it sounded illegally unfamiliar. Because it did not have the enthusiasm of the past, it sounded illegally cold.
"Entertainment Sheikh." Another voice proved Hu You's previous judgment. There were indeed two people entering the room.
"Is this voice from Li Zhi?" Hu You moved his body slightly. He wanted to see the situation below. But he still held back. Not only did he see Li Zhi, he had dinner with him. He could tell that he was Li Zhi by just listening to the sound, and there was no need to look at him anymore.
"How is the matter doing?" Old Man Li's voice was still so cold. No matter how it sounded, it didn't seem like he was talking to his family. It was more like he was explaining matters to the beginning.
Li Zhi said: "Everything is as planned by the special envoy. After the Li family army controlled Lijia Village, all the iron ore here was after our control. It was just... it was just a battle with Li Yunxing, which greatly affected our progress. I am afraid that this year's mission will not be completed."
Li Zhi's words were a bit terrible, and Hu You reluctantly understood what he meant. It seems that Li Zhi is indeed the spokesperson of a certain force, and his biggest role in Lijia Village is to secretly collect iron ore for a certain force.
Iron ore has many functions, either for civilian purposes or for war. After listening to the beginning, Hu You was not enough to judge any situation. He shrank his body and continued to eavesdrop on the conversation below.
"You don't need to worry about Li Yunxing's affairs. I will report it truthfully. I believe the superiors will not blame you. After all, this is not your fault." Although Old Man Li's voice sounded cold, it was still reasonable.
"Thank you, the special envoy." Li Zhi looked grateful. He knew more than anyone else how serious the consequences of not completing the task. If one is not done well, it is a trivial matter. I am afraid that none of the whole family can survive. Now with Old Man Li's words, he can be assured.
Old Man Li waved his hand and said, "Don't be busy with thanks for it first. Do you know you made a big mistake?"
"I..." Li Zhi was frightened by the words of Old Man Li, and quickly explained: "Li Ziguang did give us a lot of trouble, but he was very hard at the foundation of Li Family Village, and I was not sure about him. It was my fault that I did not stop the matter between Li Ergou and Li Honger. After I go back, I will definitely discipline him well and not let him have any contact with Li Honger again."
"It's not this." Old Man Li shook his head and said, "It's not difficult to solve Li Ziguang, and now it's not the time to kill him. Another thing I said is yes."
"Another thing?" Li Zhi didn't understand what Old Man Li was talking about for a moment. He thought about it but didn't find that he had nothing to do.
Old man Li glanced at Li Zhi and said, "There are two more people in Lijia Village recently, do you know?"
Old Man Li said that Li Zhi almost died. Li Jia Village has a population of 60,000 to 70,000, and there are more than 200 people coming and going every day. How could he know that there are two more people?
"It seems you don't know." Old Man Li sighed.
************************************************************
Hu You's heartbeat increased a lot at this time. When Old Man Li said that there were two more people in Lijia Village, he instinctively thought of himself and Hongye.
Old Man Li would never pay attention to any extra two people. Although Hu You didn't know what kind of envoy was, no matter what kind of envoy he was, he would not have much time to care about the fact that there were more people and fewer people in Lijia Village. Old Man Li would say this to Li Zhi. It proves that these two people are very unusual. Hu You thought about it but couldn't even think of any two people who could make Old Man Li so nervous except him and Hongye.
There was another thing that forced Hu You to be heartbroken. Before hearing the conversation between Li Zhi and Old Man Li, Hu You always thought that Old Man Li and Li Ziguang were in the same group. He never expected that Old Man Li would actually have the intention to kill Li Ziguang.
From this, it also explains why Hongye has always been with Honger. However, he has not found any clues from Li Ziguang.
From the beginning, they didn't get the right goal. The person who had the real problem was Li Zhi, but they kept working on Li Ziguang, and of course they wouldn't get any results.
But then again, if Hu You hadn't started from Li Ziguang, he wouldn't have become a gardener, so he wouldn't have been suspicious of an ordinary old man who planted flowers. He also found his home to discover this conversation.
It seems that luck is not completely unreasonable.
While Hu You was glad, Li Zhi asked sweating profusely: "The two people referred to by the special envoy are not very clear, can they be clearly stated?"
Li Zhi was really illegally afraid. Although he had already become the number one player in Lijia Village, he knew that the power in his hands was nothing compared to those behind Old Man Li. If Old Man Li was willing, it would be just a matter of one sentence to destroy the entire Lijia Village.
Old Man Li snorted coldly and said, "It seems that your life has been so good in the past few years. You are no longer concerned about many things. OK, then I will remind you. Recently, there is a woman around Li Honger, so you won't know."
Li Zhi was puzzled and said, "I know that her name is Hongye. Li Honger was injured by the trapped animal and injured her feet. It was Hongye and his wife who rescued her. I have checked this. The trapped animal was released by Li Laoba. Li Ziguang had beaten him up. There is no problem with this. Could it be that the question came from Honger?"
Old Man Li shook his head and said, "I really don't know if you are really stupid or pretending to be stupid. I haven't reacted until now. Okay, I'll explain it more clearly. Let me ask you, what is the name of Hu You's eldest wife?"
"Hongye." Li Zhi had long remembered the name in his heart and replied without thinking. As soon as he said that, Li Zhi was shocked and couldn't believe it, "Can the woman beside Li Honger is Hu You's eldest wife Hongye?"
************************************************************
"Your sister."
If Hu You hadn't had a good sense of character, he would have been able to kill him directly. This old man Li always smiled at people calmly. He could not have thought that he was a dog that didn't bark and was waiting to bite people at any time. Even Li Ziguang did not associate Hongye with the Hongye of the Han and Tang dynasties, but he could make such a sure conclusion.
Hearing what he meant, there was no need to ask, another extra person in Lijia Village was Hu You. Apart from Hu You, who else could talk about it with Hongye?
Li Zhi also thought of this problem in his mind. After the Hongye couple saved Li Hong'er, the woman stayed by Li Hong'er to take care of the injured Li Hong'er, while the man went to Li Ziguang's garden to work with Old Man Li.
Li Zhi's eyes have always been on Li Ziguang, who is on par with him. How could he pay attention to a female worker and a gardener under Li Ziguang?
"Enterprise, is Hu You the one who works with others?" Li Zhi had guessed seven points, but he didn't dare to be very sure. Hu You and Hongye were both famous figures in Tianfeng Continent more than ten years ago. They actually changed their identities and ran to Lijia Village. They really never dreamed that they would change their identities.
"Yes, he is Hu You!" Old Man Li didn't sell the relevant information this time, and directly gave the answer.
Fortunately, Li Zhi was sitting. If he was standing, he would be difficult to sit on the ground. Hongye and Hu You both came, but he didn't know at all. How terrible this was!
"Special... Special Envoy... I really didn't expect that you must help me. Otherwise, I will immediately transfer people and destroy Hu You and Hongye!" Li Zhi's eyes were red. In order to protect himself, there was nothing that could not be done. If it really didn't work, then he could only kill. In this world, it's better to die than to die by himself. Even if it was Hu You, he wouldn't be able to care about that much.
"Have I ever said, let you kill them?" Old Man Li said leisurely. It seemed that in his heart, neither Hu You nor Hongye were any big deal.
"I'll go now... Well. What's the special envoy, don't you mean to kill them?" Li Zhi felt that he had lived to a dog for decades. He could not understand a single word from Old Man Li.
Hu You also suppressed the murderous aura in his heart. He just decided in his heart that if he didn't work, he would kill Li Zhi and Old Man Li first. No matter when, self-protection is the most important thing. For Hongye and himself, killing these two guys is something that can be recognized.
But from what Old Man Li said, he didn't plan to kill them. This not only made Li Zhi unable to understand, but Hu You also didn't understand either.
Old Man Li smiled sinisterly and said, "Not to mention that with your ability, it is impossible for you to kill them. Even if you can kill them, what are the benefits for you and us?"
*********************************************************
"We are exposed." This is the first sentence Hu You said when he saw Hongye.
When Hongye heard this, her first reaction was to touch the knife. This is the enemy's camp, and exposure is equivalent to death. This is not a joke.
