Republic of China

38 Chapter [-]

Two words.

hold back.

The Xian family was panicking.

It's okay if you are destined to have a church. On every major festival such as the 15th of the Lunar New Year or March [-]rd or September [-]th, the disciples will offer incense and burn incense.

And those who don’t have a Tangkou naturally don’t get this treatment.

It definitely feels bad to see other people's fairy halls where they can even eat and drink.

So the only way is to satisfy your craving occasionally.

Of course, there are not many cases of this kind of craving. A real immortal will be considerate of his disciples and will not be tied up every time he is greedy.

Unless you can't help it.

Friendly reminder, when you suddenly go from drinking from a bottle to drinking out of a box, try not to think that you have become arrogant, as you will easily be slapped in the face next time.

What's more important is that drinking too much will harm your health and make you lose your composure in front of others.

Closer to home.

While Zhao Sanyuan was eating and drinking, Kang Muang on the other side was enjoying it very much. His fifth sister, Li Xiaohan, was helping him apply medicine on his palms, and the two of them were talking happily.

In fact, when they came back from the mountain, the two of them had already chatted relatively well.

The Li family saw this in their eyes and were delighted in their hearts. Instead of resisting, they all beamed with joy, dispelling some of the gloom in their hearts.

Taking advantage of the drunkenness, Li Dongzhi brought a stool over and put it on Kang Muang's shoulders.

"Brother, I have never admired anyone in my decades of life. The one I admire the most is Marshal Zhang. He is a great man! He is a great man! I will obey you next. The so-called self-cultivation, family governance, and world peace. Have you ever gotten married? "

Kang Muang was a little too drunk and was feeling dizzy, but he was still conscious and did not lose his composure.

"not yet."

"Do you have any other family members?"

"I have a master, but I don't know where he is wandering around. I also have a childhood friend who I don't know where he is. He traveled far and wide after he entered the world. He has never settled down and has never started a family."

Li Dongzhi was surprised at first, thinking that Xiaokang's family had no blood-related elders and had not yet married, like a rootless duck.

Surprise is followed by great joy.

It's better to come early than coincidentally.

Although it is the wedding period and weddings cannot be held at home, wouldn't it be nice to bring the two of them together first and then tie the knot directly after the wedding period is over?
"Ahem, I didn't expect Brother Kang to be in a lot of trouble, and my fifth sister was also in trouble. We arranged the marriage ten years ago, and never thought that the groom would suddenly die when he came to welcome the bride. The fifth sister has not chosen another husband since then. He has been serving his father in daily life, so touching."

"It's touching." Kang Muang echoed as much as possible.

But I had already guessed in my mind that the groom's death was closely related to Li Guyu.

Seeing this, Li Dongzhi took advantage of the victory and patted the back of his hand, "Although my little sister is a big girl, she is still a famous beauty in villages ten miles away. It's really not bragging. There are still many good young men who come to propose marriage, but we Lao Li's family is very visionary. If you don't like any of them, how about I make a way for you to marry my fifth sister? Let's get married."

"Ah? No, no, no!" Kang Muang waved his hands repeatedly after he realized what he was doing, cold sweat dripping down his face, and he was mostly awake from the wine.

Next to him, Li Xiaohan blushed even more, feeling embarrassed and angry. He hurriedly found an excuse to go to the kitchen, thinking to himself that the fourth brother had really drunk too much. He had just finished doing some errands. Is this the time to talk about this?
Li Dongzhi pretended to complain. "Why not? Do you think Fifth Sister is older than you?"

Just like what he said, the fifth sister Li Xiaohan is beautiful and filial, and the Li family has a good family tradition, at least on the surface. There are not only civil servants but also military officers, and there are quite a few people who come to propose marriage.

However, the family members felt that the fifth sister had a hard life and must find a good home for her. In addition, she insisted on taking care of her father and did not want to get married, so the matter was delayed.

Kang Muang smiled bitterly and said: "The leader has misunderstood. How can I dare to reach such a high level? Even if I agree shamelessly, I will still be hurting this girl."

Li Dongzhi took a deep breath and slammed the wine glass on the dining table, "What do you call this? You have saved my family's life, how can you say you are high-ranking!"

"I have something to hide"

"Just talk nonsense. With your ability, what can't be solved? Are you provoking enemies outside? No problem. Brother, I have connections. Wansong is also serving in the army. As long as It means everyone can be equal." "I won't live long."

silence.

long silence.

After hearing this, the Li family showed pity and sighed silently.

Finally, Li Dongzhi broke the silence awkwardly.

"This is not a big deal. Brother, I know many Xinglin masters. Don't worry, I will take you to see you later and make sure you are cured."

Kang Muang was so embarrassed when he heard this that his toes clasped to the ground.

Where is this going?

Who said anything about that job?
The moon is half high.

Under the sycamore forest outside the old house of the Li family.

Zhao Sanyuan, Kang Muang, and Li Dongzhi finally had the opportunity to completely exchange information. Some things cannot be said in front of everyone.

"I won't talk nonsense to you, Old Li. Just tell me, is there anyone in your family who has a grudge against you? Someone who will kill the family's subordinates."

Put aside the old man Li Guyu who is so heartbroken.

The Yiguandao Taoist group to which the strange Taoist belongs has already plotted to kill Li Dongzhi, and must use a method that causes maximum panic.

Zhao Sanyuan thought about it but couldn't figure out why Yiguandao did this.

Simply using people's money to eliminate disasters for others cannot be justified at all, because the method does not pay attention to concealment at all.

Li Dongzhi's tone was very affirmative, "No, at least there is no big grudge that would kill him."

Seeing this situation, Zhao Sanyuan selectively told the information told by the strange Taoist priest. As for the dark side of human nature, he held back for Li Wansong's sake.

"What kind of doctrine? I have never heard of it, let alone provoked it. Could it be that they have found the wrong enemy?" Li Dongzhi looked confused.

Zhao Sanyuan couldn't wait to go up and give him a thumbs up, "It's Yiguandao. Are there other second-in-commands of the Political Department named Li in the three eastern provinces?"

This official position does not have much authority.

But the location is really not low.

Looking back on the past, at least he was a minister of the Ministry of Industry.

A high official who can enter the palace to meet the saint.

It’s just that there is limited oil and water in this field, and there is not much oil and water to manage money and personnel, so the competition is not that fierce.

Kang Muang thought thoughtfully, "Speaking of Yiguandao, I seem to have met him in Jiaodong the year before last, and he wanted to get me to join him."

"Huh?" Zhao Sanyuan was slightly surprised.

There are already 10,000+ believers, but there is still a shortage of people?

Is this guy really planning to rebel?
"And then what?"

"I didn't want to, so he even dragged some brothers and sisters to reason with me, but then they all ran away."

Zhao Sanyuan suddenly remembered the scene at the burial ground that night. Kang Muang kept talking about it for more than half an hour, telling ghosts about it.

Ok.

It's something he can do.

"Since it's not a family issue, it must be related to the position of the second-in-command of the Secretary for Construction." Zhao Sanyuan rubbed his temples, "It's not like you haven't been home before, Lao Li, so why did you choose to take action now?"
