Chapter 343 Who's Up to No Good?

Mr. and Mrs. Lemu were both confused.

A fake? How is that possible?

Liamu stole a glance at his wife, signaling her to go back and talk about it.

The couple thanked the disciple in charge and turned around to leave the Bright Wheel Sect.

Upon returning to the inn, Sister Hong and Shen Xingyue immediately greeted them.

Sister Hong was surprised and asked, "Today is a pain in the ass, going fast and coming back fast, is something wrong?"

Li Mu made things clear in a few words, and those two were baffled.

"Auntie, is this news reliable?"

"Looking at that man's demeanor, it doesn't look like he's lying, and besides, there's no need to lie about this matter, this information should be accurate."

"How can it be a fake, is it possible that the branch is not an udon branch?"

Li Mu waved his hand and said with certainty, "Impossible, we don't know each other, the tavern keeper certainly won't look away, that thing is the Wu Teng branch, it can't be wrong."

The crowd nodded their heads, people for this thing, spent a whole eighty thousand taels of gold, how could he be wrong, it does not make sense.

"So is it possible that the Kid did it in secret?"

"I can't, Hope and I witnessed it break off a small branch from a tree limb, it didn't screw around from start to finish, I can testify to that."

"I can testify too!" Hope chimed in.

Everyone was puzzled, Li Mu said, "The stuff is definitely correct, no one has tampered with it, why are they saying that what Zhou Tian offered is a fake, can't figure it out?"

Shen Xingyue frowned, "I think, the fault is not on our side, let's think differently, you guys say, can it be that someone on their side secretly switched the bag?"

One word woke up the dreamer, and several people looked at each other, all nodding slowly.

Li Mu agreed, "It's likely that Xing Yue was right, what we sent out was definitely genuine and in full portion, if Old Ancestor Xu ate a fake, the problem should be in the Ming Lun Sect, and the possibility of switching packages is the most likely."

Lin Wan agreed, "You guys are right, the problem lies in the Minglun Sect, if Old Ancestor Xu used a fake, it only means that before the medicine was introduced, someone secretly switched out the package and exchanged the real one for a fake!"

Li Mu stroked his chin and said with great meaning, "The possibility of swapping is above ninety percent, the person who can accomplish this is definitely not simple."

He didn't continue, but his meaning was understood by everyone, Old Ancestor Xu was the leader of the sect, and how easy it would be to successfully switch his medicine.

In addition, what did that person use to mix the bag, unusual drugs certainly not, what kind of fake, can hide so many pairs of eyes.

"The people around you did it!" Sister Hong sneered, "This kind of thing can't be done by ordinary people, it can only be done by those around the Old Ancestor."

Lin Wan held out three fingers.

"In that case, there are a total of three possibilities, the first possibility, Zhou Tian switched the bag, the second possibility, Gao Song switched the bag, and the third possibility, other close people switched the bag."

The crowd agreed that the person who switched the bags was one of the three.

Among them, Zhou Tian likes his little sister and risks his life in a ghost cave to save her father.

Therefore, the possibility of Zhou Tian switching the bag was almost nonexistent, and if he wanted to get Old Man Xu killed, he wouldn't have needed to go to such great lengths.

As for other people switching bags, it was also unlikely, after Zhou Tian obtained this heavy treasure, he would definitely treat it as if it was his life, and there was no chance for bystanders to touch it at all.

After returning to the sect, he would also definitely, at the first opportunity, give the Wu Teng branch to his junior sister so that he could claim credit in front of her.

How could he fake a sidekick and give away this opportunity to kiss ass, so it was unlikely that someone else had switched the bag.

Sister Hong sneered, "Right now, it seems that Gao Song is the most suspicious, Zhou Tian trusts him, he has access to the Wu Teng Zhi, and he is the most likely person to switch the bag."

Lin Wan asked in disbelief, "Why would he do that?"

Sister Hong grunted, "Why? I think it might be jealousy! He should also like Junior Sister and doesn't want Zhou Tian to stand out in front of Junior Sister."

Shen Xingyue chimed in, "It makes sense, what I can't get, you won't want to get it either, that's his original intention, he switched the bag with the highest probability, this person is ruthless enough, he would rather accompany Zhou Tian to eat melon branding with him, he doesn't want to let him show his face easily."

Instead, Li Mu narrowed his eyes and smiled meaningfully.

Lin Wan was surprised and asked, "Hubby, what are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, Sister Hong and Xing Yue have a point, Gao Song is indeed the most suspicious, if someone switched the bags, he's definitely the most suspicious."

Lin Wan pursued, "Then what should we do now?"

Li Mu mused, "I think that this is rather a good thing, and it might be a good opportunity for us."

Lin Wan didn't understand, but Sister Hong's eyes lit up.

"Auntie, are you planning to go directly to Xu Pingru?"

Liamu gave a big finger.

"Smart, we should go and meet Xu Pingru, and we don't need to be introduced by anyone, just make a grand entrance."

The crowd listened and knew what was meant by a good opportunity.

Since the real one has been switched, that Xu Pingru must not have gotten the Wu Teng branch, and our party, as a knowledgeable person, can be of good help to her.

First, she could be told the truth so that she could make the right judgment, track down the real culprit, and regain the Utaki branch.

Secondly, if the Wu Teng branch was destroyed, it could also be used to negotiate with Xu Pingru, so that she could exchange the mica crystals for the Wu Teng branch, and for our side, the big deal would be to make another trip to the hunting area.

Li Mu smiled and pulled out a small cloth bag from his arms and stuffed it into Lin Wan's hand.

"Would you look at what's in here?"

Lin Wan opened the cloth bag and then her eyes widened.

"Utena branches?"

"That's right, it's the Utaki branch!"

"Where did that come from?"

"Before I sold the goods, I secretly broke off a small section just in case, and I didn't expect that it would actually be used."

Lin Wanjiao laughed, "I said why the shopkeeper emphasized the lack of two branches, I thought he was keeping things in the dark, but I didn't expect that people were telling the truth, husband, you're a chicken thief!"

"Nonsense, it's called having a vision, what does it have to do with being a chicken thief?"

Shen Xingyue clapped her hands and laughed, "Great, with this item, there's no fear that she won't give the mica crystals unless she wants to give up her father."

Li Mu said smugly, "That's right, even if the value of this Wu Teng branch is far lower than the Mica Crystal, she will have to follow it, we will go to her tomorrow, I happen to want to take a look at this little senior sister, how magnificent she really is."

The three women looked at each other with a wary look in their eyes.

Lin Wan said, "Seeing that little senior sister is indeed a good idea, but you can't go, if you want to see her, only our sister three can go."

Surprised, Reimu said, "You're going to see her, how are you going to get there?"

Lin Wan pondered for a while.

"It will also be necessary to disguise ourselves; three of us will go together, one as a handsome gentleman, one as an old houseboy, and the last, who can be an old maid."

Sister Hong and Shen Xingyue couldn't help but laugh at her suggestion.

Lin Wan continued, "That's it, I'll pretend to be the old houseboy, sister-in-law Hong will pretend to be the handsome gentleman, and Xingyue will pretend to be the old maid, we sister three will go on a trip, and you will stay behind in the guest room!"

Li Mu immediately objected.

"No, I don't feel comfortable with you three women going on a risk, not to mention that Xing Yue is not a martial artist and is incapable of defending herself, this plan definitely won't work, beating me to death I won't agree to it."

Lin Wan hesitated for a while, muttered a few words with Shen Xingyue, nodded her head and said, "The risks of this trip are undecided, we really can't be reckless, we need your protection, then Xingyue won't go, hubby will take Xingyue's role instead, it's decided."

Reimu froze as the three women laughed out loud.

Sister Hong nodded her head vigorously one by one in favor, "That's a good and safe idea!"

Li Mu's big face pulled a long face, "Let me pretend to be an old mom, okay, wife, count on you, really, my self-esteem has been seriously insulted."

Shen Xingyue said cheerfully, "Quite good ah, Xiaowan's arrangement is really correct, given your less reassuring black history, I suggest that in the future are implemented accordingly, the old mom costume may be the most suitable for you."

Little Brother Li insisted, saying that he would not pretend to be an old mother.

Finally, the Lin Lady glared, grabbed him by the ears, and pressed him into a chair.

Sister Hong personally helped him change his face, and the three women laughed while they changed him into an old mom.

They surrounded Li Mu to make fun, Li Ma is bulging mouth, did not say anything, the heart of the boss reluctance.

Unable to do anything about it, he had no choice but to be obedient with the Nymphet holding him down.

Lin Wan also ignored him and dressed up herself and Sister Hong, then waved at Li Mu.

"Mu mama come here, have some eyesight, serve the eunuch to go out and sneak around, by the way, call me Uncle Wan from now on, don't call me the wrong thing."

Li Mu said sarcastically, "Uncle Wan, it's still late tea, you want me to serve, good grin! I'll definitely serve you well, and tonight I'll sleep with Uncle Wan first, and Gongzi second."

Nyonya Lin was furious, pointing at his nose and cursing, "Shameless, only allowed to sleep with Uncle Wan, not the eunuch!"

Early the next morning, the three people arrived at the Bright Wheel Sect.

Li Mu took a big step towards the Welcome Henge.

Lin Wan coughed lightly and called out to him from behind.

The latter looked at her in uncertainty and confusion.

Lin Wan whispered, "Who's an old mom would stride ahead, you're not an old man now, you're an old woman, have a bit of an old woman's look, okay?"

Li Mu glared his eyes out and said defiantly, "What an old bitch should look like, I won't!"

Lin Wan disliked him hard.

"Try glaring at me again and smile at me."

Little Reeko immediately grinned.

"That's a good boy! If you don't know how to do it, I can teach you, tuck your hands up, slightly under your waist, take small steps, follow the gentleman, yes, don't go to the front if you're not doing anything."

Sister Hong happily watched the fun and teased from the sidelines, "Mu Ma, be good, follow well behind this gongzi, and if you follow well, you'll be rewarded at night!"

When Lin Wan wasn't paying attention, Little Brother Li secretly reached out and pinched Sister Hong's ass.

Sister Hong exclaimed, shyly blanking Li Mu.

Lin Wan asked in dissatisfaction, "Sister Hong, don't be so startled, what's wrong with you?"

Then who dares to tell the truth, Sister Hong whispered, "Careless, broke my foot."
