I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 373 A test from Mr. Ge?

Li Mu looked at Ge Lao's expression and knew that he might have done something against common sense again.

But you can't say that the needle fell off by itself just because you were smart.

I wanted to test him, but I didn't know how to start.

However, just as Li Mu had thought, Ge Lao's needle was not as simple as he thought.

At the beginning, Ge Peining also used this trick, not only to subdue Li Mu, but also to sneak attack Die Meng who was in a weak state.

This indirectly brought about the good fortune for Li Mu and Die Meng.

An old man and a young boy looked at each other.

Russian qing.

Old Ge smiled and shook his head, carefully wiped the silver needle and put it away, saying:

"It seems that I am worrying too much. The prince has his own ways, so I won't ask any more questions."

As he said this, he seemed to lose interest in Li Mu.

However, Li Mu came to Ge Lao just to talk to him, so how could he let him go just like that?

He quickly stepped forward and said with a wry smile:

"In fact, I learned some medical skills from Sister Ning'er before, and I happen to have some understanding of the meridians and acupuncture points of the human body."

Hearing this, Ge Lao regained his interest. He looked Li Mu up and down and said with a smile:

"The prince is still interested in medicine?"

Seeing Ge Lao's reaction, Li Mu thought to himself, "It's possible." He nodded quickly and said seriously:

"As the saying goes, medicine and martial arts are inseparable. People who practice martial arts naturally have a yearning for medicine. I have some doubts. I wonder if Master Ge is willing to answer them."

Hearing Li Mu's words, Ge Lao paused in packing up the silver needles, then a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he smiled and said:

"What a perfect saying that medicine and martial arts are inseparable. I wonder what doubts the prince has?"

Li Mu cleared his throat and bowed to Ge Lao, doing enough face-saving work before he said respectfully:

"It's about the thirty-six fatal acupoints in the human body..."

"What did you say?"

Unexpectedly, before Li Mu finished asking his question, Ge Lao interrupted him with a stern tone.

"Fatal acupoints are commonly known as death points. I wonder if what I said is inappropriate?"

Li Mu recalled carefully in his mind. For this kind of common sense about online trolls, Li Mu was sure that he would not remember it wrong. He frowned and looked at Ge Lao with some doubt.

"Did Xiao Ning teach you this?" Mr. Ge asked again.

Li Mu nodded.

When the two were training, Ge Peining pointed at the acupuncture points on her body, one by one, and held Li Mu's hand to identify them.

After traveling through time, Li Mu would almost never forget anything he had seen once.

You can even search in your mind for some things you have seen before.

Therefore, although Li Mu remembered the names and functions of many acupoints, he did not know where these acupoints were located.

Mr. Ge stared at Li Mu for a moment, then his frown gradually relaxed, and he shook his head and smiled:

"The prince asked me for medical advice and mentioned Xiao Ning. I guess he has other intentions."

"..."

Li Mu didn't know what to say.

I spent the whole morning thinking about it and finally came up with such a 'perfect' idea.

It's only been two sentences and he's been found out?

"It seems that I am not suitable for playing tricks."

With a bitter smile in his heart, Li Mu simply laid his cards on the table and stopped pretending.

"Senior has a keen eye. I cannot hide my thoughts from you."

"To be honest, I fell in love with Sister Ning'er at first sight, but there are some things that I can't ask Sister Ning'er about."

Li Mu's tone was sincere, and his main point was sincerity.

"Does the prince dislike Xiao Ning's identity as a widow?"

Mr. Ge's expression remained unchanged, and no emotion could be heard from his tone.

"No! No matter what happened to Sister Ning'er in the past, I have already accepted it. To put it bluntly, even if Sister Ning'er's husband were still alive, I would not give her up to anyone else!"

When Li Mu said this, he felt a little nervous.

But this was exactly what he really thought. Li Mu finally understood that he couldn't play any tricks with these old foxes.

As expected, when Ge Lao heard what Li Mu said, he was not angry at all. He even showed some relief in his eyes and said:

"I understand your intentions, and I never intended to hide what happened from you."

"Thank you, senior."

Li Mu was delighted, knowing that he had made the right bet.

Ge Peining and her ex-husband's family obviously had a grudge against each other, and the hatred even escalated to between the two families.

If it was really an ordinary widowhood, even if Li Mu really thought so in his heart, he would have to find a more tactful excuse.

Unexpectedly, before Li Mu could be happy, Ge Lao's voice sounded again:

"Your Highness, please be patient. Can you recite the thirty-six fatal acupuncture points to me?"

"What is this, a test?"

Although he was confused, Li Mu did not refuse and immediately said:

"Baihui, Shenting, Taiyang, Ermen..."

Li Mu recited each acupuncture point one by one in the order from top to bottom and from trunk to limbs.

However, when Li Mu talked about the two acupoints "Ruzhong" and "Rugen".

But Ge Lao's expression changed, and he interrupted hurriedly:

"May I ask, my lord, which meridians do these two acupuncture points belong to?"

“The Stomach Meridian of Foot-Yangming.”

Li Mu answered without thinking.

Just as Li Mu was about to continue reciting, Ge Lao said:

"That's it!"

The reason why Mr. Ge asked Li Mu to do this was because in his understanding, there should be only thirty-four fatal acupuncture points in the human body.

What was missing were exactly the two acupoints that Li Mu had just mentioned.

Originally, I thought that Li Mu just heard about it from Ge Peining, and now in order to ask him about Ge Peining's past, he made up something, so it was not a big mistake if he remembered it wrong.

But thinking of what Li Mu had said before, that medicine and martial arts are inseparable, he was prepared to educate Li Mu when he was unable to explain, or randomly pointed out two acupuncture points as fatal points.

Ge Lao's original intention was not to embarrass Li Mu, but to warn him.

However, Li Mu not only mentioned the acupuncture points, but even pointed out the meridians they belong to.

This forced Mr. Ge to take it seriously, as Li Mu's medical skills were obviously learned from somewhere else.

In fact, if what Li Mu said was true, then the person who taught Li Mu medical skills would be better than Ge Baicao.

Of course, this cannot be entirely blamed on Mr. Ge. As for the two acupoints mentioned by Li Mu, no serious person would conduct research in that direction.

"senior?"

Seeing that Ge Lao was frowning in thought, Li Mu thought he had said something wrong and called out to him tentatively.

Mr. Ge glanced at Li Mu indifferently, thinking that the matter still needed to be verified before a decision could be made.

For the older generation, they are not willing to rashly explore other people's backgrounds.

He shone his hands towards Li Mu and said calmly:

"Sit closer, my lord."

"Did I pass this test?"

Hearing this, Li Mu did not hide his joy. He hurriedly sat next to Ge Lao, looked around, picked up the teapot, and poured tea for Ge Lao.

Mr. Ge did not stop him, as he was not a stubborn and conservative person.

People like Li Mu are even more wicked than evil people when they need to be wicked. His shameless face makes people grit their teeth.

When it comes to being kind, he is extremely simple and honest, especially when he seems to be innocent, but in fact he is wise and foolish, and he has his own judgment in his heart.

It is impossible for Mr. Ge to say that he doesn’t like it.

Although Ge Lao was urged by Ge Peining to come to the north this time, he actually wanted to see Li Mu with his own eyes.

It can be said that what Li Mu did at Donglai Pass this time left him with a perfect impression.

"Have you ever heard of the Jing'an royal family..."

Mr. Ge did not let Li Mu wait any longer. He took a sip of tea and spoke lightly.
