Chapter 72 Abnormal Jiang Li

The next day, Jiang Li found the second boss.The second master didn't originally plan to meet Jiang Li, but the first master and the third master persuaded him and were both nearby. The second master could only listen to what Jiang Li said.

But the first master and the third master also knew that the second master might not be able to listen to anything Jiang Li said.

"I've already taken care of the gunpowder."

The second master listened to Jiang Li's first words.

The eyes of the three people were even more shocked than yesterday.

What Jiang Li did yesterday was something Jiang Li might do, but what he did today was something Jiang Li would never do.

Seeing that no one was speaking, Jiang Li continued.

"After chatting with Cripple yesterday, I feel that there have been too many things going on in our village recently. The gunpowder is really frightening. After I go back, I will dispose of all the gunpowder."

"How did you deal with it? Throw it in the river? Bury it?"

"...To put it simply, I can make something to dissolve the gunpowder. It's like sugar in water. This method can completely destroy the gunpowder."

The three heads looked at each other.With their years of tacit understanding, in this situation, the eyes are enough to convey the words.

"Do you believe it?"

"I do not believe."

"I don't believe it either."

"Then let's put it to the test."

The second boss looked at Jiang Li again and asked her.

“How much can you fit in your storage space?”

"It's equivalent to one thousand and 250 kilograms of water."

Jiang Li really didn't know how to describe the volume in this world, one cubic meter.The volume of this world is always tied to food. It is said to be volume, but it is actually used to describe weight.

Therefore, she had to replace it with water.One cubic meter of water weighs two thousand kilograms. One kilogram in this world is equal to one kilogram and six taels in Jiang Li's original world. That's how much it is when converted.

The second boss nodded, walked outside, and spoke to the minions outside.

"You guys! Go get 250 kilograms of water!"

This number sounds like a lot, but in fact it is just one cubic meter of water.
Soon, the minions took care of the matter, and the large tank they moved was filled with water.

The second master looked at it and said to Jiang Li.

"You put all this writing water into your storage space."

"...Is it necessary? Are you so defensive about me?"

"What do you say?"

There was no other way, so Jiang Li had no choice but to do as he was told.Before that, she took out all the other things in the storage space.

Two benches, a plate of peanuts, a plate of bacon, three magical instruments, a knife, and a bag of money.

"You have so much private money."

The Third Master looked at the bag of money and sighed.

Jiang Li didn't take the money seriously.

"This is the money given by Prince Mu. Didn't I also take some gold and silver jewelry from the river pirates? I didn't have time to hand it over yesterday, so I left it in my room. I will get it later."

"The military advisor may never be short of money in his life."

The boss also said the same thing.The Third Master looked at the bag of money, couldn't help but steal a few taels, and then put it back.

It's enough to relieve the addiction.

At this time, Jiang Li packed up all the water, proving that his storage space did not contain the gunpowder.

The second master also knew that Jiang Li would not be stupid enough to put the gunpowder in the room like this, or bury it, and then search it and find it.He also believed Jiang Li.

"Okay. I just didn't trust you, I apologize to you."

"I did do some troublesome things after I came to Shanzhai, but I have figured it out and won't do it again."

Jiang Li's attitude was extremely sincere, so sincere that the three of them felt inexplicably flustered.

The second boss swallowed his saliva and said to Jiang Li.

"...You don't have to be so anxious to change."

"I have indeed experienced a lot on this trip, and I also feel that I have not done enough. Then I must continue to do a good job, so that I can be a bandit who does not cause trouble."

"Don't be like this, I'm a little scared..."

The Third Master said this directly.

Jiang Li didn't care.

"Let's discuss Li Hong's matter first. Now this should be the most important thing to discuss in the village."

Sorting out priorities, such a mature approach, is this something that a military advisor can do?
All three of them thought so.But the matter is right in front of them, and it doesn't matter if they don't believe it. Besides, this matter really needs to be discussed.

So, they all sat down.

Jiang Li asked the third master.

"I asked you to tell them about the immortal cultivators yesterday, did you say it?"

"Well, I said it."

After Jiang Li listened, he quietly waited for others to speak.

The leader will first sort out the current situation.

"According to the timeline, after the military advisor threatened Li Hong, he went to Prince Mu's Mansion. Soon after, the demon cultivator came over, found Li Hong, and offered to help Li Hong. The reason is unknown."

"Maybe it's just a coincidence. I've heard that the demon cultivator especially likes to lure people who have experienced ups and downs in life to do evil. But he also has a grudge against the immortal cultivator I invited, so maybe he came here with him."

Jiang Li said, choosing himself out of this matter.

The Demon Lord who was far away in Donglin Mountain suddenly sneezed, and then continued to look at the deflated appearance of Shi Li Jiangli in the photo.These days he relies on entertainment.

The mage next to him looked at the Demon Lord, worried that the Demon Lord had a tendency to commit crimes.But then I thought about it, committing crimes is in line with the character of the Demon Cult, and I stopped talking.

On the Niutoushan side, the headmaster continued.

"Later, Li Hong asked that person to help rescue Xiaolian, because Xiaolian had information about the Shanzhai. After learning from Xiaolian that the Shanzhai used gunpowder in the battle with my senior brother, they quickly went to notify We informed the city lord and notified others to spread the news. Two days later, the city lord sent someone to notify us. That’s about it in terms of time.”

"Is Li Hong still in Sifang City now?"

Jiang Li asked, and the Third Master shook his head.

"The day after you left, we sent people to Sifang City to check to prevent Li Hong from doing anything. But Li Hong was no longer in Sifang City at that time. Maybe he went to other places, but he just planned to go to Sifang City before leaving. Give us another fatal blow."

"It is indeed possible. But we still need to be more careful."

Jiang Li said this. .Li Hong now has a new backer, so he just left?Don't you want to stay and continue fighting with Jiang Li?
This is obviously unreasonable.Based on Jiang Li's recent confrontations with Li Hong, she knew that Li Hong was a very vindictive person and was good at using leverage to achieve his own goals.

So he left Sifang City like this, either because there was some reason why he had to leave, or because he had other plans for the next step.

Did Li Hong sacrifice his soul to get the devil to take action?Jiang Li couldn't understand this for a while.

But we can talk about that later.

The second boss said again at this time. "It's really not possible that someone will attack the stronghold in a short time. They have no evidence. The people in Prince Mu's Mansion will not tell us that we have gunpowder, and no other powerful people have seen it. As for the city lord, He came to inform us because of money. The city lord also understands his intention very well. If we really don’t have any gunpowder, we won’t care.”

"...Then the matter is resolved?"

"Of course not. Li Hong also spread the news to some gangs, and now he may go to other places to say it. Sifang City is a small city. If he told the county governor and the county governor issued an order, the city lord would not be able to protect us. And recently, There may be spies coming to search."

After listening to the second master's explanation, Jiang Li also frowned a little.

Now I clearly know who the enemy is, but I still feel that the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light.They had no way to stop Li Hong before he made any move, so they could only passively take advantage of him.

Then, they discussed what might happen and how to deal with it.

These are all things they have to consider, including whether the demon cultivator might take action himself.

If it got to that point, they would be waiting to die.

It's just that Li Hong still chose the mortal way to cause trouble for the cottage. There must be a very small chance of that person doing it himself.

After discussing for a while, the boss made up his mind.

Although it is an idea, it is just a summary to end this discussion.

"The cottage has to keep a low profile recently. There may be some people coming to investigate, whether it's gangs or the government. As long as we keep a low profile recently, nothing big will happen. I think what they want most is not gunpowder, but you, the strategist. Gunpowder with increased power. Only you know the method, so even if they really attack and kill them all, they will lose more than they gain. At the very least, your life must be saved."

"If it comes to that, I will protect you no matter what."

After Jiang Li said this, the headmaster patted her on the shoulder and continued.

"Then the defense of the stronghold needs to continue to prevent danger again. Finally, the military advisor."

The headmaster looked at Jiang Li. For a moment, Jiang Li didn't know what the headmaster was going to say.

Then, she heard the boss talking.

"Don't forget to bring over those gold, silver and jewels. The village will have no rice for tomorrow's meal. We have almost eaten everything for yesterday's banquet. Didn't you see that all the bacon and pickles are here?"

"Where's the copycat money? Didn't I still have a lot when I left?"

"The city lord has a huge appetite. The price he pays if he doesn't deal with us is all our money."

The third master said, feeling a little sad.That is a feeling that only poor people can give off.

Only now did Jiang Li understand why the third-in-command wanted to steal his private money just now.Being able to put the money back, the third head of the family is already great.

"...If I don't come back, what will you do tomorrow?"

"Go dig some wild vegetables. It's spring too, and the wild vegetables are all growing."

"If I stay well in Jiangnan this time and don't come back, what will you do?"

"Then go down the mountain and steal some. You can't rob recently."

The third master said.Stealing things is his specialty. If he takes someone to steal things, he can really do it without anyone noticing.

Jiang Li sighed.

"Okay, let's go down the mountain to buy some things tomorrow. Those gold and silver treasures are the entire property of the river pirates, quite a lot."

It was a lot, but not as much as Jiang Li imagined.Quite a few of them should have been replaced with gunpowder.

"I'll go back if nothing happens. I've been very sleep-deprived these past few days. I wanted to talk to the second boss about this matter early today, so I got up early. I haven't fully woken up from the wine yet."

Jiang Li said, yawned, and walked to his room.

The three heads sat there and looked at Jiang Li's back.

"I feel like there is still something wrong with the military advisor."

The boss said so.The second boss also nodded.

"She looks special today..."

"Mature and steady."

Seeing that the second boss couldn't think of any adjectives for eating, the third boss added two more.But he also felt that these two were not so accurate.

But the three uneducated people couldn't think of a good adjective for a while, so they just accepted it.

The second master thought for a while.

"Tell me, did something else happen to her over there in Jiangnan that we don't know about?"

"No way. When I told her about gunpowder last night, she was still the same. Why did she change this night?"

"The military advisor came to me this morning because he wanted me and Lao San to come out when the intermediary called you. I thought she just admitted her mistake."

The boss said the same thing.

Compared to the crisis that might happen in the village, they paid more attention to Jiang Li's anomaly.After all, Jiang Li is really an unreasonable person. No one knows what is abnormal about such a person and what might happen.

"It's hard to guess what a woman's mind is."

The Third Master sighed and said this.

The three of them just sat there, worrying about a woman.

"Any time there is a libertine in our village, it will probably be easy to figure out."

The fact that the boss can say this has proven that he can face his past.It also proves that among all the people in the village, none of them can have a wife who can live in the village.

Suddenly, the second boss slapped his thigh.

"I seem to figure it out."

"What do you want to understand?"

The other two people looked at the second master, and then the second master explained.

"Just now the cripple mentioned that women's thoughts are difficult to guess, so I was thinking about the difference between men and women..."

"The genders are different."

"You lame boy, please wait until I finish. The point is that because of this, I thought of another different thing. Killing people."

As soon as the second master finished explaining this point, the other two people also figured it out.

When Jiang Li kept talking about killing people before, they still had time to intervene in the matter, or were confident that they could sort out and enlighten Jiang Li after the incident.

But after Jiang Li came back, he had already killed three people.It's just that they didn't pay attention to this because of the gunpowder issue.

They were all people in the Jianghu. Killing someone was not a big deal at all, and there would be no psychological burden. Therefore, they ignored that Jiang Li would have psychological problems after killing people.

"I still remember the first time I killed someone, I vomited for a day."

The third master said so.That's not a good memory.

The boss also followed suit.

"Maybe it was because of the methods used by my master at that time. When I killed someone, my heart beat faster for a while and nothing happened. And after that, my desire to kill became stronger and stronger, especially cruel killing."

"...Really? I didn't feel anything when I killed someone for the first time. I don't feel it now either."

The second boss said calmly.When he escaped from the restaurant and met someone from the Jianghu who wanted to arrest him due to a wanted order, he killed him with a knife and continued running away.

The first master and the third master looked at him, and the third master said.

"It means you are a psychopath."
