I'm the villain in the book

Page 517

"..."

The carriage shook, making the girl's voice intermittent.

Her voice was very weak, but Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi looked at each other, and they both heard some different meanings from it.

First of all, Yang Liushi didn't introduce herself, but the girl called her "Madam" as soon as she came up, as if she could tell her relationship with Wei Changtian at a glance.

Secondly, the girl only said that she was waiting outside to fear that she would freeze to death, and that she was waiting in the tower because she was afraid that Wei Changtian would not see her...but she didn't say that she was afraid that she would choose the wrong city gate.

Therefore, she seemed to have already determined that Wei Changtian would go to the south gate.

But how is this possible?

Frowning slightly, Wei Changtian's expression gradually became serious.

If he had walked through the east gate, he might not be so surprised now.

But he walked through the south gate by himself!

Even if the girl guessed that she would turn back, how did she bet on the south gate from the three gates of the south, west and north?

After all, I didn't have any reason to choose the South Gate, I just said it casually.

For a while, Wei Changtian was puzzled, and even thought that this girl had some supernatural powers.

And the girl seemed to read something from his gaze, so she asked in a low voice:

"My lord, do you want to ask me how I won the bet..."

"Yes."

Wei Changtian squinted his eyes: "I'm curious, if I walked through the west gate or the north gate, would you be able to guess it?"

"Will not."

The girl shook her head lightly: "My lord, you won't go through the west and north gates."

"why?"

Wei Changtian's tone was low, even mixed with a hint of coldness: "Why can't I go through the west gate and north gate?"

"It's not impossible..."

Seemingly not very afraid, the girl seriously corrected: "No."

"..."

will not?

What do you mean no?

Obviously, what the girl meant was that Wei Changtian would definitely choose to go through the south gate no matter what.

And not for any objective reason, but a subjective choice.

But as I said just now, Wei Changtian's decision to choose the South Gate was completely out of his mind.

so......

"How on earth did you figure it out?"

"speak clearly!"

Taking a deep breath, Wei Changtian knew that he must have found a treasure.

But he still wanted to see if the girl could give a perfect explanation.

No, it doesn't even need to be perfect.

As long as the other party can give a reasonable explanation, then such scheming will not be weaker than Chu Xianping.

And all the previous facts have shown that in this world of low martial arts cultivation, personal military power is important, but the role of strategy is also huge.

At least if there is no Chu Xianping, then there is a high probability that I will not be able to deal with Kuilong, and it is even more impossible for Zhuang Zhiming to ignore Kuilong's iron law of "not participating in secular power struggles" and lend myself six second-rank masters to kill Ning Yongnian.

Therefore, is it "a blind cat meets a dead mouse" or "strategizing"?

......

"Young master, don't scare people."

Feeling the tension in the atmosphere, Yang Liushi softly blamed Wei Changtian.

She poured a glass of water for the girl, handed it to the latter, and asked gently:

"Girl, what's your name?"

"Mrs. Hui, my name is Li Zimu."

Plum wood?

The moment Wei Changtian heard the name, he first thought of an Internet celebrity in his previous life who was only one word away, and then quickly figured out the origin of the name.

The word Li is Zimu. It seems that the girl's parents should not have much culture, so they used such opportunistic naming methods.

But it's not hard to hear.

Huh?

The word Wei can be dismantled into a committee ghost, if Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen are so perfunctory, wouldn't he be called "Wei committee ghost"?

What a few things...

With a rant in his heart, Wei Changtian shook his head, and stopped thinking about these messy things.

And Yang Liushi on the opposite side also continued at this time:

"Miss Li, the young master has such a temperament, you don't have to be afraid."

"You are weak now, so it doesn't matter if you ask me a question later."

"Ma'am, I'm fine."

Li Zimu shook his head lightly, took a sip of water, and held the teacup in his palm.

She looked at Yang Liushi who looked like a fairy, then at Wei Changtian who was silent, and then whispered:

"Young master, madam."

"If I'm not mistaken, you should have come from Shuzhou City, and you are going to the capital to discuss with the Emperor about resisting the enemy..."

Chapter 593 "Mind Reading"

You have come from the city of Shuzhou, and you are going to the capital to discuss with the emperor the matter of resisting the enemy.

The carriage is speeding, and the sun is golden.

The instant Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi heard those words, their pupils shrank slightly.

They looked at each other, and immediately Yang Liushi asked softly:

"Miss Li, why do you guess like this?"

"Um......"

Li Zimu pondered for a moment, then replied in an orderly manner:

"Madam, son."

"It's not been a day or two since the banditry in Zhongling City, and since the young master has such strength far surpassing the bandits, but he didn't take action to kill the bandits before, it means that he didn't know much about the situation in Zhongling before."

"In addition, the young master doesn't know the layout of the city, so I guessed that you should have arrived at Zhongling City yesterday."

"However, everyone in Tanzhou is aware of the banditry in Zhongling County. Ordinary people would never choose to spend the night in Zhongling City."

"So you must have come from further afield."

"..."

Having said that, Li Zimu paused, lowered his head and took a sip of water.

Her explanations are reasonable, but they haven't gotten to the point yet.

"Then how did you guess that we came from Shuzhou City?"

Wei Changtian squinted his eyes: "Also, why do you think we are going to the capital?"

"because this......"

Putting down the teacup, Li Zimu lightly pointed to the corner of his clothes.

She is still wearing Wei Changtian's outer robe, so the target of her finger is obvious.

It was the word "Wei" that scared the black shop woman half to death.

"My lord, apart from some swindlers, there is only one family in Daning who dares to embroider this word on their clothes."

"Young master has extraordinary skill and handsome appearance, and the order cannot be fake."

"So I guessed the identity of the young master, so I naturally knew where the young master came from."

"As for how I guessed that the young master is going to the capital..."

"Right now, the four kingdoms are about to commit crimes, and the whole world knows. Although the young master established his country in Dashu, he must understand the truth of death, and he definitely doesn't want to see Daning fall."

"And since you want to help Daning, the young master must go to the capital to discuss with the emperor."

"What's more, Zhongling is on the only way from Shuzhou City to the capital..."

"..."

Clear logic and organized thinking.

Although the entire reasoning process is not complicated, there are no secrets involved.

Including the upcoming crimes of the Four Kingdoms, the real "emperor" of Dashu is Wei Changtian, and Ning Wenjun was enthroned with the support of the Wei family... All these are known to many people.

But being able to use this public information and combine it with the word "Wei" to guess so much is by no means something ordinary people can do.

It's not easy...

I admired it in my heart, but I was surprised, but Wei Changtian can actually accept it here.

A twelve or thirteen-year-old girl can achieve this level, and it is no problem to say "extraordinary intelligence".

But if you want to compare with Chu Xianping...

"Yes, I am indeed Wei Changtian, and this time I am indeed planning to go to Beijing to meet Ning Wenjun."

With his expression unchanged, Wei Changtian first affirmed Li Zimu's reasoning, and then asked slowly:

"But how on earth did you bet that I would go through the south gate?"

"When you asked me last night, I answered Dongmen."

"Are you so sure that I will break my promise?"

"this......"

Li Zimu bowed his head in embarrassment.

"My lord, this matter is not difficult to understand."

"Last night, I asked myself if I could follow you. If you were willing, you would directly agree."

"But the young master didn't do this, it means that the young master thinks I'm useless and doesn't want to cause this trouble."

"It's just that I feel pitiful and can't bear it, so I didn't reject me directly, but asked me a question."

"In this way, if I get the wrong answer, it means that I have no fate with the young master. Even if I die because of this, it is not the young master's fault."

"Since the purpose of the young master's asking this question is just to get rid of the guilt in his heart, he must not want me to answer it correctly."

"So the young master will naturally not go through the east gate..."

"..."

If the explanation just now was reasoning, then the explanation now sounds more like "psychoanalysis".

If you are willing, you have already agreed, instead of fixing such a place, so you must not want to bring me this burden in your heart.

But you also feel that direct refusal may cause me to seek death, so you try to shift the responsibility to "fate".

As long as my guess is wrong about the city gate, it means that we have no fate, even if I die because of it, you will not feel guilty.

Therefore, you definitely don't want me to bet right, let alone keep my promise and walk through the east gate...
