I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 596 The Dead Man
The carriage galloped on the uneven official road against the rising sun, and the sound of bumps echoed in the sedan chair.

The breathing rate became faster in an instant, and Wei Changtian, who understood Li Zimu's meaning, thought of a word almost immediately——

subconscious.

Obviously, the "imperceptible thought" that Li Zimu refers to is the subconscious mind.

Of course, although the word "subconscious" is a term from a previous life, it doesn't mean that people in this world don't have a similar concept.

So the name is not important, what is important is what Li Zimu just said.

"All seemingly random choices are actually determined by these hidden thoughts."

"Young Master, do you believe that if you could do it again, ten times, or a hundred times, you would still choose the South Gate?"

"It's not fate, it's mind."

"."

Looking at the slightly green face opposite, if Wei Changtian hadn't heard it with his own ears, he probably wouldn't have believed that these words came from a teenage girl.

But Li Zimu really said so.

And said it with great certainty.

At this moment, Wei Changtian can already confirm that Li Zimu has abilities that are different from ordinary people.

To be modest is called "meticulousness", and to be exaggerated is called "mind reading".

Unlike Chu Xianping's powerful layout and strategy ability, Li Zimu may not be able to use lies and conspiracy to achieve some "impossible" things.

But she can read people's minds.

How did this ability come about?Why did it appear on such an ordinary peasant daughter?

Wei Changtian didn't know about the above issues.

but
"Miss Li, are you willing to be the dead soldier of the Wei family?"

"."

After Wei Changtian said a word, Yang Liushi's eyes became a little surprised.

Perhaps in her opinion, with Li Zimu's ability, he could be equal to Chu Xian in the future, so the status of a dead soldier is too "fair" for her.

But Li Zimu's expression didn't change at all, as if he had expected this to happen a long time ago, he just nodded slightly at the moment.

"Since the young master has saved me twice, then my life should belong to the young master."

"I am willing to serve my son."

"it is good."

Nodding slightly, Wei Changtian paused, and asked:

"Where are your parents buried?"

"."

Li Zimu's eyes froze, and a trace of extremely complicated emotions flashed in his eyes.

She knew why Wei Changtian asked this question.

Since I want to be the dead man of the Wei family from now on, I will naturally "say goodbye" to everything in the past.

"It's just, it's on Xiaogang Mountain in the north of the city."

"Ah."

Wei Changtian responded, then turned his head to the outside of the car and said:
"Zhang San."

"Go to Xiaogangshan first."

There are wild grass and rocks everywhere.

I don't know if it's because the spring hasn't started yet, but the Xiaogang Mountain is desolate at this time, except for the bare dwarf trees, there are many old or new graves on the mountain.

Most of the people killed by the bandits are buried here, and Li Zimu's parents are no exception.

"My lord, what do you plan to do with Miss Li?"

Looking at Li Zimu kneeling in front of two adjacent graves from a distance, Yang Liushi whispered to Wei Changtian: "It is really rare for her to have such a talent, don't treat her like a cow and a horse." handle."

"When did I treat others like cattle and horses?"

Arms crossed his chest, Wei Changtian curled his lips: "Besides, we can't just look at whether she is really capable or not."

"I will test her a few more times in the future. If she handles it well, then I will naturally reuse her."

"Huh, that's good"

Yang Liushi breathed a sigh of relief: "Miss Li is a poor person, I hope I can forget those terrible past events sooner."

"I guess I won't forget it."

Wei Changtian shook his head: "Both parents died at the hands of thieves, and I was also ruined by thieves. Anyone who has such a thing should bear grudges for the rest of their lives."

"."

Eyelids drooped, Yang Liushi seemed unable to bear to look at Li Zimu's thin back, and whispered helplessly:
"Miss Li can read people's hearts, but she doesn't know why she fell into the hands of bandits."

"Hey, what's the use of understanding people's hearts, and it's no match for a bandit's knife."

Wei Changtian sighed: "Besides, she might have done it deliberately to avenge her parents, who knows?"

"Young Master, if you just ask, you will know?"

"Forget it, it's pointless."

"Um"

"."

The mountain wind blew past, sending faint cries to the ears of Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi.

And not long after the whimpering stopped, the two saw Li Zimu finally stand up unsteadily.

She seemed to be reluctant to bow to the two graves, then quickly wiped the corners of her eyes, and walked back step by step with her head down.

"All right?"

Glancing at Li Zimu's red eyes, Wei Changtian didn't say much.

"Let's go."

"Yes, Master."

"You don't need to call me Master, just call me Young Master just like Zhang San."

"Yes, son."

"Ah."

"."

that's it.

When the sun in the east had fully risen and the golden light was shining down on the earth, the troika finally left the boundary of Zhongling and continued heading north to the capital.

From originally wanting to take a look at the "changes" of Zhongling, to doing justice for the sky in a rage, to inexplicably accepting a dead man with "mind reading skills"
For the first time, Wei Changtian, who enjoyed the protagonist's treatment of "you can pick up treasures on the road", did not show how happy he was, and kept his eyes closed on the way, wondering what he was thinking.

And at noon, the Tanzhou Yamen also replied.

"My son, Mr. Feng, the governor of Tanzhou, said that he will immediately send troops to Zhongling to wipe out all the remaining bandits in the city, and the new county magistrate will also take office along with him, and the state government will also provide money to comfort the people who suffered from the banditry."

"Master Feng promises that this kind of thing will never happen again, and he plans to go to the capital to meet you in person and apologize to you and Ning Wenjun face to face."

The banditry that had been going on for two years was immediately resolved just because of a message from Wei Changtian, and even the governor of Yizhou came to the door to apologize in person.

This undoubtedly proves how influential the Wei family is in Daning today.

"Tell that Mr. Feng, there is no need to plead guilty, I don't have that skill."

After replying to Zhang San, Wei Changtian stopped talking, and the car and sedan chair became quiet again.

Li Zimu on the opposite side has already changed into a set of Yang Liushi's clothes. Although it is a bit loose for her, it is better than Wei Changtian's outer robe.

As if she didn't hear the conversation between Wei Changtian and Zhang San just now, she kept her hair down all the time.

Obviously, it should be that he hasn't recovered from the "parting" with his parents.

"Young master, I want to hear you complete that poem right now."

Suddenly, Yang Liushi's voice broke the silence.

"Ok?"

Wei Changtian was taken aback for a moment, and his eyes fell on Li Zimu, as if he understood the meaning of Yang Liu's poem.

"When will the bright moon come? Ask the blue sky for wine. I don't know the palace in the sky. What year is it?"

He didn't have any ink marks, and immediately recited "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" slowly.

Although this is a Mid-Autumn Festival poem, it is also about night scenes. Both the time and the scenery are far from the present.

But as soon as the first two sentences were uttered, Yang Liushi's eyes froze, and Li Zimu raised his head in a daze.

Wei Changtian's voice in the car was neither loud nor soft, and the sky and the earth were vast outside the car.

The loess is rolling for thousands of miles, the bare mountains are endless, and the desolate land is silent and silent.

Under the sky, there were only three carriages galloping alone, leaving Zhongling City far behind, heading straight for the precarious Daning capital.

"."

"People have sorrows and joys, and the moon is cloudy and clear. This matter is hard to come by in ancient times."

"Nung, moon and new moon."
