Rebirth of a small peasant girl

Chapter 40 Identity Exposed
Liao Xuanyi bumped Lu Ce with his elbow, and Lu Ce stopped making detours, "The leader of the Underworld Butterfly Mercenary Group is the Ling family in Heishi Town, but Ling Changfeng is not a direct descendant of the Ling family, but a branch of the Ling family. "

Lu Ce didn't go any further, whether it's the direct descendants of the Ling family or the offshoots, they all have one thing in common, that is, they like to plunder.

Don't look at his Lu Ce as a big and thick guy, but he is actually very thoughtful. He knows that Liao Xuanyi is from the Liao family in Heishi Town.

Although only a small number of people on the island knew Liao Xuanyi's identity, and Liao Xuanyi seldom mentioned his life experience to outsiders, others knew that Liao Xuanyi was a family member, but they didn't know that he was the young master of the Liao family.

And he, Lu Ce, was one of the few people who knew the inside story.

When Liao Xuanyi heard that it was the Ling family, his expression changed immediately, "Brother Lu, do you know who was brought back by the eldest brother of the Chen family?"

Lu Ce turned to look at Liao Xuanyi, his eyes were unclear. Seeing that Liao Xuanyi was so eager to inquire about the eldest brother of the Chen family, he suddenly remembered the recent rumors.

It was a rumor about the second elder brother of the Chen family. Some people speculated that the second elder brother of the Chen family was the alchemist behind Liao Xuanyi, because someone saw that the brothers and sisters of the Chen family lived in the fire room, and during that time Liao Xuanyi often went to the fire room.

So some people suspect that the second brother of the Chen family is an alchemist, but some people think that the second brother of the Chen family is too young to be a third-level alchemist.

After several debates, the rumors about the Chen family's second brother being a third-level alchemist gradually disappeared.

Now Liao Xuanyi's attitude made Lu Ce think of the rumor again, and asked suspiciously, "Brother Liao, tell me quietly, is the third-level alchemist behind you the second brother of the Chen family? I swear that I will never tell anyone else." .”

Lu Ce said and made a swearing gesture.

Liao Xuanyi glanced at Lu Ce angrily, gave him a look that looked like a fool to you, turned around and opened the door to leave.

Lu Ce stood there in a daze for a long time, "..." Brother Liao, what is the meaning of this?

When he came back to his senses, Liao Xuanyi was no longer in sight.

Lu Ce didn't understand, so he scratched the back of his head, looked in the direction of Liao Xuanyi's departure with confusion, then curled his lips and said in a low voice, "I didn't make it clear whether it was true or not."

Liao Xuanyi did not leave, but left Lu Ce's residence. He went to the mercenary group to inquire again.

The visitor saw that it was Liao Xuanyi, who was a hot figure on the island recently, and it was their honor to be part of their mercenary regiment.

The person in charge hurriedly stepped forward to entertain Liao Xuanyi, and Liao Xuanyi expressed his intention for coming.

Seeing that Liao Xuanyi came to inquire about things, the other party told Liao Xuanyi everything he knew.

Liao Xuanyi gave the other party a second-level tonic pill that he carried with him.

The man was overjoyed to receive the elixir, and when he sent Liao Xuanyi off respectfully, he said, "If Fellow Daoist Liao still has something to ask, come and see me next time."

Liao Xuanyi didn't respond to the other party's words, and just left.

Liao Xuanyi, who had left the mercenary regiment, was in a mess now. People passing by, some acquaintances saw Liao Xuanyi and greeted him.

Liao Xuanyi seemed to have lost his soul, and he was stunned, neither responding nor speaking.

Seeing that Liao Xuanyi's expression was not right, the person who greeted him stopped talking and passed by.

At this time, Liao Xuanyi had been completely immersed in his own world, and he was in a daze. The people and things around him disappeared before his eyes, and he was the only one standing on the street in the whole street of his world.

The world suddenly quieted down.

Liao Xuanyi didn't know if the Brother Chen he knew would change his name to Brother Mu now.

Mu Zhong, Mu Zhongjie, Chen Xi, Mu Chenxi, Chen Xi... Chenxi... No wonder he felt something wrong with Brother Chen's name.

Is that so?

Liao Xuanyi already knew the relationship between Ling Changfeng and Mu Zhong from the person in charge of the mercenary group.

Mu Zhong, no, he should be called Mu Zhongjie, Mu Zhongjie from the Mu family in Heishi Town.

He was originally a member of the Underworld Butterfly Mercenary Corps. Seeing that Mu Zhongjie was talented, the old regiment leader had been cultivating him as his successor.

Mu Zhongjie is young and promising, handsome and handsome. The old head's daughter is about the same age as Mu Zhongjie, and the two have been childhood sweethearts since childhood.

And the old head of the regiment also had the same meaning. He betrothed his daughter to Mu Zhongjie, so that Mu Zhongjie would be his legitimate successor.

It seemed to be a perfect union, but something went wrong at this time, a young man suddenly came from the Hades mercenary group and broke everything.

Not long after Ling Changfeng arrived, Tong Yiyi, the daughter of the old head of the group, was completely smitten by Ling Changfeng's sweet words, and she abandoned her childhood sweetheart Mu Zhongjie without hesitation, and turned around and threw herself into Ling Changfeng's embrace.

Not long after, the old regiment leader encountered danger on the way to the sea and was buried in the sea. At this time, the Hades mercenary group began to debate who should inherit the position of the old regiment leader.

Some people thought it was Mu Zhongjie, because he was the heir recognized by the old leader himself.

Others thought it was Ling Changfeng, because Tong Yiyi was the blood of the old leader, whoever she married would be the next leader.

The two parties were quarreling fiercely, whoever said that everyone was right, and they were evenly matched and neither would give in.

In the end, Mu Zhongjie let go, expressing that he would voluntarily give up the position of head of the regiment. Those who wanted Mu Zhongjie to succeed him wanted to continue to dissuade him, but Mu Zhongjie remained unmoved after several dissuasions and insisted on his own ideas.

When those people saw the situation, it was useless to persuade them, so Ling Changfeng successfully took the position of head of the regiment.

Unexpectedly, Mu Zhongjie had already given up the position of team leader, and Ling Changfeng still refused to let Mu Zhongjie go.

When Ling Changfeng killed Mu Zhongjie, the flying dragon mercenary group happened to pass by, and Mu Chenyu rescued Mu Zhongjie from Ling Changfeng's hands.

These are not the main points. What frightened Liao Xuanyi the most was that the reason why Ling Changfeng refused to let Mu Zhongjie go was because he was from the Mu family.

Liao Xuanyi came from the Liao family in Heishi Town, how could he not know about the Ling family and the Mu family.

Mu Zhongjie is from the Mu family, which made him suddenly think of something Lu Ce said. Lu Ce told him that at first, the elder brother of the Chen family didn't intend to save others, but after seeing the other party's face, the Chen family The eldest brother suddenly shot to save people.

When Lu Ce talked about this matter, he was very puzzled. According to the time Lu Ce spent with the eldest brother of the Chen family, the eldest brother of the Chen family has a high level of cultivation, but he seldom likes meddling people.

Usually in the regiment, he seldom talks, doesn't seek trouble, doesn't make trouble, and his strength is not low, so Lu Ce is also willing to buy Liao Xuanyi's favor.

This time, he didn't cause any trouble for their mercenary group, but he felt that the behavior of the big brother of the Chen family was a bit weird this time.

When Lu Ce first started talking about this matter, Liao Xuanyi didn't take it to heart. When Lu Ce said that, he just listened to it.

But after understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Liao Xuanyi discovered the reason.

From the very beginning, when he met the Chen brothers and sisters on the boat, they gave him a very mysterious feeling.

Afterwards, he also discovered that, as he had guessed, the brothers and sisters of the Chen family were secretive and rarely showed their faces.

At first, he thought it was nothing. After all, the elders were not in front of him, and there were many strong men in the monk world. They acted so low-key for self-protection.

Later, the longer he had been in contact with them, Liao Xuanyi found that the Chen brothers and sisters gave him a weird feeling, and he always felt that something was wrong.

Brother Chen's demeanor and younger sister Chen's quick wit are all quite different from their appearance.

Until today, he finally understood what was wrong. If they were the Mu family, then all this would make sense.

Why did the elder brother of the Chen family save an irrelevant person, why did brother Chen keep a low profile and dislike dealing with people, while the younger sister of the Chen family was much more sensible than her peers at such a young age.

There is only one explanation for all of this, that is, they are the Mu family, and all they did was to avoid the pursuit of the Ling family.
