Chapter 539 I'm just curious
After a while, the door of the private room was opened from outside, and the guards from the city lord's mansion personally delivered steaming food.
There were only four people, but dozens of dishes served, which looked very rich.
"Shaoxia Lin, this table of dishes is all local dishes from Xuanshuicheng. I heard that you are a local from Xuanshuicheng, so I told the chef to make this banquet according to your taste."
After the current city lord and other guards finished serving the dishes, they said slowly.
"Lin Mu, what do you like? I'll help you pick up food."
At this time, Jiang Jingru suddenly said.
After saying that, Jiang Jingru actually picked up a chopstick dish for Lin Mu.
"No need, I can pick up food by myself. I'm not a child anymore."
Lin Mu smiled faintly and declined.
After Lin Mu said that, he picked up a chopstick and sent it to his mouth.
Of course, when the guards of the city lord's mansion came in, Lin Mu already knew that these dishes were tampered with. If Lin Mu was right, there should have been a very strong drug among these dishes.
Lin Mu is an alchemist himself, and he awakens a martial soul like Dading. He has a unique talent for the elixir. Although the smell of the medicine in these dishes is covered by some seasonings, Lin Mu can still smell the smell.
"Lin Mu, don't worry, as the God-Devouring body of the Heaven, you are resistant to any poison in the world. Some of these dishes are lax drugs, some are strongly corrosive poisons, and some are even weird insects, which are harmless to you, just eat them."
At this time, Zi Yan, who lived in Lin Mu's spiritual world, found Lin Mu very cautious and suddenly spoke, asking Lin Mu to eat it with confidence, and she would not be afraid of any violent poison.
On the way here, Lin Mu had already told Zi Yan everything that happened during the period when Zi Yan disappeared.
After Zi Yan knew that Lin Mu's family had been destroyed, she also comforted Lin Mu.
It was also because of Zi Yan's appearance that Lin Mu's mood improved a little.
Otherwise, when Lin Mu first appeared, he could no longer help but attack Jiang Jingru.
After hearing Zi Yan's words, Lin Mu was no longer afraid of his hands and started eating food.
Before coming to the banquet, he spent a lot of energy to practice new skills. Now he can use food to replenish some energy and come back. When the war begins later, he can have enough strength to deal with these big enemies of the family.
Since he found the enemy, Lin Mu was now at ease, so this meal was a meal he could eat since he returned to Xuanshui City. Moreover, since Lin Mu was not afraid of the poison in the dishes, he also let him go and eat it.
The current city lord, Deng Zuo Envoy, and Jiang Jingru all looked at Lin Mu with strange expressions.
Originally, they planned to let Lin Mu be poisoned, and then subdue Lin Mu without any effort. Then Deng Zuo's envoy used soul search on Lin Mu and searched all the memories in Lin Mu's mind, so that he could know Lin Mu's powerful secret.
Lin Mu was promoted to the realm of death at the age of only sixteen. It is inevitable that such a talent for martial arts cultivation will become a top-notch strong man in time.
And why did Lin Mu have such a terrible talent for martial arts cultivation?
Jiang Jingru and others believed that Lin Mu must have many secrets, so they tricked Lin Mu here today for the purpose of Lin Mu's secrets, and even if possible, they could get information about the ruins of the Lin family's ancestors from Lin Mu's memory.
But they found that Lin Mu had eaten such a dish and swallowed so much poison, so why did he show no sign of poison?
"Hey, why don't you eat? Did you invite me to come and have a meal? You don't eat it, but instead look at me eating?"
Lin Mu glanced at these people and smiled faintly, and there was a flash of coldness in his eyes.
Jiang Jingru and others smiled awkwardly.
At this time, Jiang Jingru said, "Lin Mu, I didn't expect you to have such a good appetite."
"That's certainly, because I'm happy today."
Lin Mu smiled.
"Oh, Young Master Lin, I wonder why you are happy today?"
The current city lord asked in confusion.
"It's not a reason, but today I finally found several enemies from my family, and the enemies who killed my parents were also found by me. Of course, my appetite will be much better."
Lin Mu smiled faintly.
When Lin Mu said this, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn. Jiang Jingru and others were just staring at Lin Mu, and a look of surprise flashed across their faces. They didn't seem to expect Lin Mu to say such words.
Could it be that Lin Mu already knew who was the one who destroyed his family?
"Hehe, Lin Mu, have you found the clue who is your enemy?"
Jiang Jingru laughed, and at the same time she was secretly alerting Lin Mu.
The current city lord and Deng Zuo Envoy also secretly alerted.
"Um."
Lin Mu nodded seriously and continued, "A man named Dong Chang has informed me that tonight, he will tell me who my enemy is?"
When Lin Mu told the name of Dong Chang, Jiang Jingru and the other three changed their faces slightly, because Dong Chang in Lin Mu's mouth was Dong Youzun.
Originally, Dong Youzun also needed to attend tonight, but Dong Youzun disappeared for no reason.
Considering the disappearance of Dong Youzun, and when Lin Mu was contacted, he actually said Dong Youzun's name, Jiang Jingru and the other three had an idea at the same time. Could it be that Dong Youzun had rebelled?
"Hey, what's wrong with you? Why don't you talk anymore? Aren't you happy that I'm about to find the enemy of the family that destroyed me?"
Lin Mu suddenly asked with a smile on his face.
"Well, why are you? We are all very happy for you. Lin Mu, as long as you find who your enemy is, we will do our best to help you take revenge."
Jiang Jingru said a little embarrassedly.
"Ahem, that's right, Ru'er is right. Our city lord's mansion is willing to do a filial piety!"
The current city lord nodded and echoed.
Deng Zuozun, who was sitting aside, didn't say anything, but a sharp light flashed through his eyes at this moment. He was wondering in his heart, why did Dong Chang and Dong's right suddenly betray?
"Lin Mu, are you sure that Dong Chang's words you said are trustworthy? Who is this person and why did he suddenly help you?"
Jiang Jingru suddenly asked Lin Mu intently.
Lin Mu did not answer Jiang Jingru's words at the first time. He first picked up a bite of the dish and put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, then slowly swallowed it into his stomach. Then he said lightly, "It should be reliable. I made a deal with Dong Chang. He should not lie to me. As long as I tell him a secret tonight, he will also tell my enemy who is."
"Oh, what deal did you make with that Dong Chang?"
Jiang Jingru couldn't help asking.
Lin Mu suddenly turned his head and looked at Jiang Jingru. After a moment, Lin Mu asked curiously, "What kind of deal did I have with Dong Chang have discussed? Are you very interested in knowing?"
Jiang Jingru was stunned. She knew that she had lost her composure and quickly shook her head and said, "No, although I am a little interested, this is related to your family's great revenge. I should not know it for the time being, so as not to cause you to worry."
Lin Mu kept looking at Jiang Jingru and suddenly said, "Oh, I plan to say it, but after you reminded me, it seems that it is not appropriate to say it. So wait until I complete the transaction with Dong Chang first, and then tell you the results of my transaction with Dong Chang."
"Oh, no, I mean, Lin Mu, if you can tell me what you and Dong Chang traded, maybe we can give you some reference."
Jiang Jingru smiled and said.
"Yes, Young Master Lin, if you can trust us, maybe we can give you some reference. After all, we have been dealing with power for a long time and are more clinking to deal with such negotiations."
The current city lord would also echo.
"Okay, even if you don't say it, I want to ask you to help me with reference. After all, I plan to ask you to help me kill the enemy after I find out who is the big enemy of my family."
Lin Mu suddenly laughed.
"Okay, Lin Mu, tell us that after you know the enemy, our city lord's mansion is willing to send troops to help you eliminate the enemy!"
Jiang Jingru said confidently.
"Okay, thank you."
Lin Mu said thankfully towards Jiang Jingru.
"That's right. Dong Chang suddenly left a letter in the place where I live this morning. The content of the letter was very simple. It was to ask me if I wanted to know who my family's enemy was, and at 10 o'clock tonight, I went to the Damang Mountains fifty miles away from Xuanshui City to find him. If I told them the ruins of my ancestors of the Lin family, he would tell me everything he knew."
Lin Mu said.
When Lin Mu talked about the "remnants of the Lin family's ancestors", Jiang Jingru, Deng Zuozhang, and the current city lord couldn't help but look a hint of surprise flashed across the faces of each other.
"Lin Mu, do you know where the ruins of the ancestor of the Lin family of your Lin family are?"
Jiang Jingru asked suddenly.
"Of course I know. I used to be the only heir to the Lin family. How could I not know such an important secret of the family?"
Lin Mu replied readily.
However, Lin Mu thought about it and seemed to think something was wrong. He asked, "No, Ru'er, have you heard of the ruins of my ancestors of the Lin family?"
Jiang Jingru and the other three were stunned.
Jiang Jingru also noticed that she seemed to be saying the wrong thing, waved her hand and said, "No, I just feel curious, hehe."
After saying that, Jiang Jingru laughed, trying to cover up the murderous intent that flashed across her face.
