The Heavens Begin with Detective Di Renjie

Chapter 305
Due to the sudden intrusion of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, the banquet that had been going well could no longer proceed.

"It's getting late, in Xiuning's opinion, let's end the banquet tonight!"

In fact, it is only the first quarter of Xu time, and the sky has only just darkened, so it is far from being too late.

But Li Xiuning knew that the Pegasus Ranch was facing a storm, and something big might happen tonight, so she offered to cancel the banquet.

"Since that's the case, Princess, let's rest first, let's talk tomorrow." Shang Xiuxun gave Li Xiuning a grateful look.

She knew very well that the other party took the initiative to suspend the banquet so that she could free up her hands to deal with the current important tasks.

Although the cooperation has not yet been finalized, Shang Xiuxun is already impressed by this delicate and exquisite Princess Li Family.

It's no wonder that the Li Clan can have the foundation they have today. These sons and daughters of Li Yuan are indeed the dragons and phoenixes!
Shang Xiuxun couldn't help sighing in his heart.

When business was suspended, Li Xiuning and Shen Youzhi naturally left first, leaving the people at Pegasus Ranch to discuss countermeasures by themselves.

On the way, Li Xiuning suddenly asked Shen Youzhi:
"Mr. Shen, do you think the 'Four Bandits' will come tonight?"

"Maybe, maybe not." Shen Youzhi said casually, "Does the Princess want them to come, or not?"

"Oh!" Li Xiuning sighed, and replied very frankly: "Although this is not good, Xiuning really hopes that they can come."

"because of this."

"In this way, we can sell Pegasus Ranch as a favor." Shen Youzhi spoke out for her.

If the four bandits really came tonight, he would definitely eradicate them easily. At that time, Pegasus Ranch would owe a huge favor, and the alliance with the Li family would naturally be more certain.

"Do you think Xiuning is too utilitarian?" Li Xiuning asked with a wry smile.

For one's own interests, and even hope that the interests of others will be harmed, is this a villain's mentality of harming others and benefiting oneself?
"Whether it's for fame or profit, as long as you don't take the initiative to hurt others, no one can say wrong." Shen Youzhi said.

Regardless of deeds and intentions, as long as there is no harmful act, no matter what you think in your heart, it cannot be called a mistake.

Moreover, no matter what Li Xiuning thought in his heart, the four bandits would still come.

Objective existence is never changed by subjective psychology.

Li Xiuning did not continue to delve into this topic, but instead said:
"It's still early, sir, would you like to accompany Xiu Ning for a walk?"

At this time of day, one would definitely not be able to fall asleep. If one were at home, one could still chat with people or read some idle books to pass the time.

But now that they live in other people's land, these entertainment activities are not convenient, so they can only walk around and enjoy the night view of the Pegasus Ranch.

"If you have nothing to do, it's good to take a walk." Shen Youzhi nodded slightly.

Afterwards, the two began to wander aimlessly around the ranch.

Walking across the plain and over the hillside, the two of them came to the back mountain of the ranch without knowing it.

Although it is just a hill, compared with the endless plains of the pasture, this place is naturally special.

"Huh?" Li Xiuning cried out in surprise, "There are still people living in the back mountain!"

As she spoke, she stretched out her slender fingers, which were as white as green onions, pointing to a dim light in the distance.

The back mountain is quite a distance from the ranch. Would it be too inconvenient for people living in the ranch?

Li Xiuning couldn't figure out who lived in it.

Shen Youzhi remained calm and said:

"If you're interested, it's okay to go and have a look."

Li Xiuning first looked up at the moon in the sky, realized that it was still early and there was no need to rush back, so she nodded.

Houshan, Xiaozhu

Surrounded by weird mountains and rocks, an elegant small building is hidden in it, and the dim lights add a bit of loneliness.

"Why are you here so late today?!"

Inside the small building, an old voice came leisurely.

Standing outside the courtyard, Shen Youzhi and Li Xiuning looked at each other, knowing that the other party probably recognized the wrong person.

"Junior Li Xiuning, don't blame the old man for visiting rashly!" Li Xiuning said respectfully.

"Huh?" Seeing that it was not the person he was waiting for, the old man in the room suddenly let out a sound of surprise.

After a long silence, the old voice finally came again——

"come in!"

With the owner's approval, Li Xiuning gently opened the door and slowly walked into the small building.

As soon as she entered, she, who was born in a wealthy family, noticed that the layout of this small building was quite artistic, almost completely in line with the elements of garden construction, magnificent and unique, which made people's eyes shine.

It can be seen that the owner of this small courtyard must be a master who is proficient in garden construction!

Not long after they left, the two met the owner of the courtyard, a lonely old man.

"The princess of the Li Clan came to my Pegasus Ranch. It seems that the world is finally about to change!"

Lu Miaozi glanced at Li Xiuning and said in a deep voice.

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Shen Youzhi beside him, and then fell silent without saying a word.

It's not that he doesn't want to say it, but that he doesn't know how to describe the other party.

In the past, Confucius visited Lao Tzu, the patriarch of Taoism, and said to his disciples after returning:
"Birds, I know they can fly; fish, I know they can swim; beasts, I know they can walk."

"The one who walks can be a bird, the one who travels can be a dragon, and the one who flies can be a bamboo."

"As for the dragon, I don't know how it rides the wind and clouds to the sky."

"I see Lao Tzu today, he looks like a dragon!"

Today's Lu Miaozi can finally deeply understand the mood of Confucius at that time.

Obviously the other party was standing in front of him, but he couldn't see through it at all, and he didn't even know how to describe the other party.

Undoubtedly, this kind of mysterious temperament that cannot be guessed or pondered must be the expression of Taoism's practice.

Even if it is the "loose man" Ning Daoqi, Lu Miaozi has never felt such a temperament in the other party.

In other words, the young and mysterious man in front of him not only came from a Taoist sect, but also had a higher level of cultivation than the current leader of the Taoist sect!
Impressive!Amazing!

It is really amazing that there is such a master of Taoism who has achieved good fortune in the world!
"Your honor is profound, unlike ordinary people!" Lu Miaozi said in amazement.

Shen Youzhi smiled slightly, and said casually:

"Living alone, sir, is also not like a person in the world of mortals."

When Lu Miaozi heard this, he smiled wryly.

"Incomparable! Incomparable!"

"This old man has no choice but to live in seclusion."

"How can it compare to the 'body like Bodhi' of your lord!"

Having said that, he said with emotion:

"It seems that the Li family is indeed the destiny of heaven, and even a person like Zunjia is willing to go with the flow!"

Originally, he thought that this troubled world would last for a long time, and it was far from a conclusion who would die in the end, but now seeing Shen Youzhi, he knew that the destiny had already been settled, and there was no other possibility!
"I don't know why the two of you came to Xiaozhu?"

Lu Miaozi looked at the two and asked again.

Li Xiuning quickly replied:
"It's nothing. I just came to pay a visit out of curiosity when I saw the lights on the back mountain by chance."

Lu Miaozi nodded slightly, and then invited the two into the room.
