Evergreen Immortal.

A restaurant in the south of the city, a private room on the third floor.

Li Rui sat on the wooden chair and glanced at the surrounding environment.

Huanghuali wood was a good thing brought from Yazhou thousands of miles away. He had only seen it in Master Zhu's room. The set of furniture in front of him was worth a thousand taels.

"I have long heard that there are experts behind this Jiuxiang Building. It turns out that it is Wu Laobangzi's territory."

In front of him sat a strong man with a stubble on his face and a fierce look.

This person is none other than Wu Tu, one of the Eight Dark Sects of Qinghe, the leader of the Rongzi Sect.

The character "Tu Naisha" is not used by serious people as a name.

I heard that the name Wu Tu was changed later, and it was not called this name before.

"My brother is an open-minded person. My subordinates are ignorant and should be taught a lesson."

Wu Tu laughed heartily, and his voice echoed in the room for several rounds.

Standing aside, Ding Liang's eyes were as swollen as a copper bell, and he was about to cry without tears.

This old man has no martial ethics!

He wanted to say it earlier, but Li Rui didn't give him a chance at all.

Wu Tu: "Don't worry, brother, we are all members of our family here. I just don't know how I learned such good kung fu after working as a groom in the Zhu family for so many years."

Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly.

This Wu Tu secretly investigated his identity!

Wu Tu looks carefree, but his thoughts are not simple.

He sighed inwardly.

Rong Zimen has been under the control of Qinghe for over a hundred years, and he has lived in Qinghe for decades. So many people know him, and it is not difficult for the other party to find him.

"Wu Laozi has something to do with the old man?"

Li Rui didn't have much panic in his heart.

Although Wu Tu's name is famous, he is only a ninth-grade stone skin realm warrior, so he is not afraid.

Wu Tu: "Brother, what's the point of being a groom in the Zhu family? Why don't we work together to do something big?"

Li Rui understood immediately.

Wu Tu was trying to win over himself.

That's right.

His skills are not uncommon in Qinghe, but they are not many, and there are even fewer who understand the rules of the world.

Those who are in the side sect are not those who are big in the world. They never pay attention to potential. It is the last word to use them as soon as they come. He is indeed very suitable.

Among the eight secret sects, the three sects of Malange have no organization, and the other five sects have so-called laobangzi, that is, leaders.

Each of these leaders has their own abilities, and they are all masters who can stir up troubles in Qinghe City.

Those who hang out in the world are unless they are mentally ill.

Otherwise, the more friends the better, and the same goes for the Dark Eight Sects. Everyone knows that there is strength in numbers.

"Tou Wu, the old man is just a man whose half body is about to be buried. He can't stand the use."

Li Rui shook his head.

Wu Tu felt a little regretful: "Brother, are you really not considering it anymore?"

Li Rui refused again: "I'm already at my age, so I'd better hire someone else to lead Wu."

He is short of money, but he doesn't make any money.

At least you can't touch the Anbamen's money casually, otherwise you will make money but not spend it.

Seeing Li Rui's firm attitude, Wu Tu did not try to persuade him.

As said, although Li Rui has some abilities, he is too old. He is just trying his luck. It doesn't matter if he doesn't join.

"Brother, if you figure it out at some point, you can enter through the gate of Rongzi Gate at any time."

Wu Tu was a generous man.

Li Rui was not forced to drink a cup of tea, and then left with Ding Liang.

Li Rui sat alone in the private room.

After Wu Tu and the others had completely left, they went downstairs.

"Brother, are you really going to let that old boy go?"

Ding Liang asked with a pig face.

From time to time, he glanced at Jiuxianglou behind him. He was tricked by the old man twice, and he was lying if he said he was not angry.

"Since he doesn't give face, why not..."

Ding Liang's eyes flashed with fierceness.

In the eyes of the underworld, there are only two types of people in the world, friends and enemies, nothing else.

My friends drank from big bowls and ate meat.

enemy

Since the old man didn't want to join the Rongmen, he was an enemy, and they had already investigated clearly that Li Rui was not from the Gezimen at all, he was just an old groom, which was easy to handle.

Wu Tu glanced at Ding Liang.

"If you put away your little thoughts, you will only make yourself look stupid."

"You are so good at fighting, can you beat a top-grade warrior?"

Ding Liang was shocked: "That old man is a top-grade warrior?!!"

All this time, he had only thought that Li Rui was just an old man with a stronger body, but he didn't expect that he turned out to be a warrior.

A chill ran down his back.

Fortunately, he was beaten all the time and did not fight Li Rui, otherwise he would be a corpse now.

Wu Tu's eyes flashed.

"The groom, a ninth-grade warrior, is a bit interesting."

"Tell the brothers to be smarter in their tactics in the future and not to conflict with that person."

"good."

Ding Liang nodded obediently.

Wu Tu practiced the Eagle Catching Skill, which was not only about hand skills, but also about his eyesight, so when he saw Li Rui at the first sight, he was sure that he was a top-notch martial artist.

Do you really think he is such a talkative person?

How could Li Rui be allowed to leave so easily after abolishing such a big chapter.

It's just not sure.

"It's not a good thing to be targeted by Rongmen."

Li Rui walked on the street with cold eyes.

Don't forget that Wu Tu was a bandit in the Hengmen and is now the leader of the Rongmen.

At least more people died in his hands than he could count on both hands.

The other party will definitely not give up after spending so many people to find out his identity.

"That's all."

"Let's take it one step at a time."

Although he was not afraid of Wu Tu, the people of Rongmen knew that he worked for Zhu's family, and it would be easy for them to deal with him.

At this time-

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Bunches of fireworks rushed into the sky, leaving white smoke in the air.

"It's almost the end of the year."

Li Rui looked up.

The New Year is the most important day of the year for most ordinary families. Only at this time of the year can the servants of the Zhu family eat meat for sure.

But this year means something different to Li Rui.

He can redeem himself.

According to the laws of the Yu Kingdom, once you reach the age of seventy, you can be freed from the household registration. Generally speaking, the master will take the initiative to grant grace during the New Year to show his generosity for the sake of face.

He has offended Zhu Lie, and it will be difficult for him to stay there.

And as long as he is freed from the household registration, even if Rongmen knows his identity, he can't do anything to him.

Many people who practice martial arts never marry or have children in their lifetime, but accept disciples.

The reason is simple.

The more ties one has, the more weaknesses one has. Traveling the world will inevitably make enemies. No one wants to see a family of wives and children being killed, so most of the time, apprentices are treated as sons, who will take care of them in the future and wear mourning clothes.

He spent most of his life in the Zhu family.

Almost all the people he was close to died of old age, and the only ones left were Yang Yong and Wang Zhao.

As long as he left the Zhu family.

In the eyes of outsiders, he was alone and could no longer be easily controlled.

From then on, the sea was wide for fish to leap, and the sky was high for birds to fly!
