I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 73 Love is Endless

After speaking.

Li Tong raised his head and carefully observed Wei Tu's reaction after hearing this.

The king of Mingzhou is not the prince conferred by the court of Zheng Guo, but one of the 32 anti-kings of the volunteer army in Guangyuan Prefecture.

Her son Li Xingye took refuge in the King of Mingzhou and became an aide. This is a crime of treason. According to the laws of Zheng Guo, the nine clans must be punished.

When ordinary people hear such things, they will probably think it is a disaster. Not only will they not help, but they will also turn her over to the government for punishment.

Involved in treason—

Even officials are unavoidable.

To Li Tongshi's surprise, Wei Tu was not shocked or angry when he heard the news, but looked calm.

"see a visitor out."

Wei Tu sipped his tea, looked at the maidservant aside, and spoke briefly.

——The kindness of the Li family, he has been in the past 30 years, and he has to be clean.

If the Li family is a little busy this time, he can still help out if he thinks about the old relationship, but the crime of treason is involved... Even if he has this ability, he doesn't want to get burned.

The voice fell.

Li Tong immediately fell to his knees with a plop, and begged, "The old woman came here to beg for guards. It wasn't just a fluke. She wanted the guards to save the old woman's family..."

"I just hope that Wei Shoubu can lend a helping hand and save one of the old woman's grandchildren."

"Don't let my Li family lose their incense."

As if thinking of something, Li Tong hurriedly added, "The old woman has two grandchildren, they belong to the second child's family, and they have nothing to do with Xingye's evil beast!"

"A grandson?" Wei Tu raised his eyebrows slightly, but didn't say any words of rejection immediately.

Li Tong's ability to "escape" from the county prison was not because of his great skills, but because of the help of his "old friends".

In other words, the situation is not so critical that it is difficult to help.

The crime of treason is great.

But the officials who do things are still local officials after all, and they have the ability to favor others.

It's just that this task is too big, and the officials of Qingshan County will not allow it. They must get his approval before they are willing to help.

In other words.

Helping the Li family may cause burns, but the danger is still within a certain controllable range.

Otherwise, Li Tong would not be able to escape.

Besides.

There is another possibility.

A certain official didn't like him and wanted to set up this trap to frame him.

"It's just a grandson. With my contacts, I can rescue him, but it will inevitably end up in the hands of Qingshan County officials..."

"This handle is not a small handle, but a handle of treason."

"Don't be careless!"

"If you use martial arts..."

Wei Tu thought secretly.

With his strength in martial arts, it shouldn't be difficult to secretly go to the county prison to rescue a person.

But he didn't want to go to the county prison to risk himself because of this incident.

……

The living room was silent for a few minutes.

Wei Tu shook his head, made up his mind, he first asked Xing Hua to take two ingots of silver, and gave them to Li Tong as gifts.

Then he said "see off" to the maid.

Li Xingye didn't care about his wife, children, and children. Why should he care about the lives of the Li family as an outsider?

A grandson is easy to save.

But the subsequent disposal and arrangement would be extremely risky. He also has a wife and children, so how could this matter involve his family in a dangerous situation.

"Wei Shoubei, Lord Wei..."

"Is it really not possible?"

At the back door of Wei's house, the grey-haired Li Tong stepped across the threshold, she still didn't give up, she turned her head to look at Wei Tu, smacked her lips a few times, and asked.

In the nearly 30 years of her relationship, Weitu has almost always been "responsive" to the Li family, which is why she regards Weitu as a life-saving straw.

Unexpectedly, Wei Tu refused so simply this time, there was no room for redemption.

listen to this.

Wei Tu was silent for a few breaths, and he said, "If Grandma begged me more than 20 years ago, although Wei is afraid of being involved in it, he will help the Li family get through this disaster."

"However, it's different now."

"Love is exhausting."

Having said that, in fact, Wei Tu thought to himself, if more than 20 years ago, if the Li family got into such a disaster, he would not be willing to help the Li family solve their problems.

For a "benefactor" to hang his head on his waist, even a person who knows the meaning can hardly do so.

What's more, his relationship with the Li family was not very pleasant.

Back then, if he hadn't redeemed himself one step ahead, he and the Li family would have become enemies long ago.

"Love...is exhausted..." Hearing this, Li Tongshi muttered to himself and sighed several times.

The Li family said it was a kindness to Weitu's life, but in fact, during the famine years, taking advantage of the cheapness of human life, they bought slaves and kept slaves.

Three years ago, her son Li Xingye's family was imprisoned for inscribing an "anti-poem" in a restaurant. Thanks to Weitu's relationship, he survived and did not lose his family's wealth.

A life for a life.

If you want to say owe, it should be that the Li family owes Wei Tu his life.

"The old woman is leaving."

Li Tong gave half a salute, turned around and left from the back door of the Wei residence.

After a few breaths, she disappeared around the corner of the street.

……

After Li Tong left from Wei Zhai.

Wei Tu didn't relax his mind about this. After he ordered his servants to close the gate of the backyard, he walked up to the eaves and followed Li Tong away.

Sheng Mien, fight against Mien.

This time he did not help Li Tong's to help the Li family out of trouble, if Li Tong's heart was filled with hatred, he would report to the government office, saying that he also had the intention of treason.

Then he will be in danger.

"Besides me, is there anyone following Li Tong? Could it be someone from the Qingshan County Government?"

After following Li Tongshi for a while, Wei Tu suddenly discovered that there was a thin middle-aged man secretly following behind Li Tongshi fifty steps away.

He deduced that this middle-aged man was most likely sent by Qingshan County officials.

The purpose of the Qingshan county officials dispatching this middle-aged man should be the same as his concern. They were worried that after Li Tong's unsuccessful appeal for help, he would hold a grudge and bite him randomly.

After half an hour.

Li Tong walked near the gate of the government office.

Seeing this, Wei Tu, who was standing on the eaves, suddenly showed a cold look at the bottom of his eyes. He turned his palm, and a green leaf appeared on his fingertips.

This green leaf was just picked by Li Tongshi along with him from a family's elm tree.

——If Li Tong's family reported to the official next, he would definitely not hold back, and would preemptively kill Li Tong's family.

Then, Wei Tu glanced at the middle-aged man who was following behind Li Tong.

Like him, this middle-aged man's eyes showed a fierce look, and he had an extra short blade in his hand, obviously he also had a murderous heart.

Li Tong stayed at the gate of the government office for a while. He climbed up the steps several times, but after he climbed up, he went down again.

He didn't knock on the gate of the government office.

After Li Tongshi left, Wei Tu also heaved a sigh of relief.

It was a test for him to kill Li Tongshi, an acquaintance.

Could it be otherwise,

It is also a blessing.

Wei Tu continued to follow Li Tongshi and the middle-aged man. After seeing the scene of Li Tongshi leaving the government office area and being arrested by the county government officers - he immediately tried to take away the two ingots of silver donated to Li Tongshi. Then back away.
