1045. Not Just Resentment

The ten major holy places of the human race are all sects in each city, and they have different influences in the military. For example, the thirty-sixth division of the military department, which is second only to the Ten Elders Association, has great influence on the entire human race. But I dare not say that there must be the shadow of the Holy Land behind it. The reason why major departments such as the Thunder and Fire Department and the Divine Works Department can perform so strongly is not only responsible for the military supply and fertilizer, but also because of the true nature behind them. A great holy place stands earnestly.

It is already so strong with the support of a holy land, but what if there is more than one holy land and more than one martial arts emperor behind it?

That's just terrible.

Yu Sanlun's mind quickly flashed through the current power distribution of the human race. The power pattern that had been formed for a long time was now extremely clear. Suddenly, there was a place that claimed to have several martial arts holy places and several martial arts emperors standing behind it, just like the original fish and shrimp. In the shallow pond where the hippos are enjoying themselves, a prehistoric giant crocodile suddenly appears.

Lin Yufan was also quite depressed at this time.

He received various information about Li Mu from Lei Dao Zushan, which was extremely detailed. He also knew that his sect had always had a relationship with Li Mu, and the tentative policy was not to conflict with Li Mu. He thought that in the Thunder Fire Department, he would not Like his junior brother [Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Manifestation True Master], he will have a head-on conflict with Li Mu. Who knows...

Is this really a case of enemies not getting together?

He also has a headache now, what should he do.

Today at the Juxian Pavilion Restaurant, I was completely embarrassed.

But he also knew very well that if he was tough today, he might be even more embarrassed.

After so many years in charge of the Thunder Fire Department, Lin Yufan encountered this kind of opponent for the first time. He felt like a tiger eating the sky and having no place to attack.

"Sir, let's forget it?" Yu Sanlun tried to ask.

What he wanted to ask the most was, was he really going to kneel at Mingyesi's door for three days and three nights? He himself was embarrassed, but the face of the entire Thunder and Fire Department was really going to be swollen.

Lin Yufan raised his eyelids, took a look, and said, "Go."

Yu Sanlun's heart sank.

He had never seen the leader so withdrawn.

He was angry but to no avail.

Do you want to disobey?

Lin Yufan glanced at him and said: "Don't forget, what does Ming Yesi do? In recent years, you have done some things badly. If Li is really ruthless and investigates, with his It’s easy to find out your background, and when the time comes, I won’t be able to protect you..."

Yu Sanlun suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

Ming Yesi claims to be in charge of the light and purge the darkness. Corruption within the army is within the scope of inspection. In fact, his butt is not clean. This is something Yu Sanlun knows very well.

He is not afraid of others checking him.

Even if Ming Yesi changes his boss to check him, he is not afraid.

But if someone with several Holy Lands and Martial Arts Emperors standing behind him came to investigate him and took advantage of Ming Yesi's righteousness, what kind of disastrous consequences would happen? Yu Sanlun shuddered when he thought about it.

"Now you understand, am I doing this to protect you?" Lin Yufan said.

Yu Sanlun saluted respectfully and said, "It is hard to repay your kindness by breaking your body into pieces."

Lin Yuquan said again: "Li Mu is a person who is easy to break when he is too strong. He is so arrogant. Even if he has a great background, he will sometimes fall into trouble. What's more, background cannot solve everything. Be patient for a while and avoid his sharpness for a while. It won't be long. , he will be in big trouble."

…

…

"Does your family live here?"

Li Mu looked at the overgrown grass in front of him, the sun was blocked by the floating mountains above his head, the extremely dark chaotic streets and alleys, and the large buildings like slums, his face full of astonishment.

Although I had expected that Yun Shuangyan would be reduced to working as a waiter in a restaurant, maybe her family conditions were not good, but she did not expect that it would be so bad, and in a holy place like Huining City, a human military headquarters. , there is such a chaotic and dirty area.

The floating mountains above our heads are extremely beautiful, but the sun is blocked by these floating mountains, the ground is in shadow, and there are people struggling to survive. It's like the beautiful forest canopy is only suitable for looking from a distance. Once you enter it , the dense branches and leaves cover the sun, and the dark smell of humus can be smelled in the gloomy air.

Yun Shuangyan said: "My grandma has been bedridden all year round, and my sister was also born with a terminal illness. She has been suffering from it all these years... Sir, this place is filthy and smelly, so why don't you go in?"

Li Mu looked back at Li Shang and the other five people.

All five of them lowered their heads.

They knew that the Master was dissatisfied with their failure to take good care of the previous Master and his descendants.

"Go in." Li Mu said: "You have to see it with your own eyes to know what kind of life the descendants of the heroes who have made great contributions to the human race live. Only then can you know that in a short period of time, we What exactly did you miss?"

Yun Shuangyan felt a warm feeling in her heart and said, "Please, sir."

He leads the way.

This area is called the muddy ground.

Although the ground was not muddy, it was worse than any slum Li Mu had ever seen before, and even dirtier than the slums in Chang'an Mansion's Killing Pig Alley.

Stone houses, thatched huts, earthen walls, black ditches, garbage piled up everywhere, and even garbage thrown from the suspended mountains overhead at any time... The air is filled with the smell of decay, and there are buzzing and flying swarms everywhere. Flying flies.

Dirty, messy and poor.

Under the guidance of Yun Shuangyan, Li Mu and his party walked through small roads and met various people living in this area. They had different looks and different expressions, but the same ragged clothes and the same skinny appearance. Like weeds growing in the mud, humble yet tenacious.

Various people looked at Li Mu and others with curious eyes.

Obviously, such luxuriously dressed and clean people rarely appear in such a place.

The Yun family's residence is deep.

Finally, the group arrived outside a small earth-walled courtyard at the southernmost end of the muddy land.

Squeak.

Yun Shuangyan pushed the door open and went in.

"Who is it?" A low, hoarse female voice came from a mud house in the yard, and I was breathless when I heard it.

"Grandma, it's me." Yun Shuangyan said loudly and quickly.

"Why did you come back so early today?" A skinny old woman, leaning on a cane with difficulty, moved bit by bit out of the earthen house with only a rag curtain hanging.

Yun Shuangyan said: "Grandma, we have a guest at home. My shift ended early today." He walked in, supported the old man, with a smile on his face, looking very cheerful, and said, "Grandma, I'm not asking you to You just lie down and put on your clothes to rest. Why are you on crutches again?

The old man just moved a few steps and panted slightly: "Get up and take a look at Ying Yatou..." She noticed Li Mu and the others, and asked Yun Shuangyan doubtfully: "Who are these?"

"Grandma, these are the adults from Mingye Division, and this is the new Chief Li." Yun Shuangyan said quickly.

"Ming Yesi?" The old lady's body trembled slightly, and a strange light flashed in the depths of her originally cloudy eyes, and she immediately returned to normal.

While helping the old woman sit down, Yun Shuangyan explained to Li Mu: "Grandma is too weak to salute. Please forgive me."

Li Mu said: "Elders are respected, no need to be polite."

"I wonder why Mr. Li came to this muddy place like our Yun family?" the old lady said calmly, sitting on a stone chair in the yard, leaning on a cane with both hands, barely maintaining balance.

This old lady was the wife of Yun Zhongyue, the tenth generation head of Mingye Division. Yun Zhongyue was unparalleled in elegance and was a dragon among men. It is conceivable that his wife should definitely not be an unknown person. But now that he has ended up like this, his body is weak and his appearance is ruined, he doesn't know what happened.

However, her speech and conversation are extremely extraordinary at first glance.

Li Mu said: "I met the Shuangyan brothers in the Juxian Pavilion, and then I learned that they were the descendants of the previous chief, and came to visit."

The old lady said: "Oh, now I see it, I'm really sorry. The Yun family has embarrassed Ming Yesi. Sir, please go back."

Li Mu was slightly startled.

The tone was quite unkind and seemed to be filled with resentment.

Is it because Ming Yesi has ignored the Yun family all these years?

"Old man, I have to apologize to you and the Yun family on behalf of Ming Yesi. For such a long time, Ming Yesi has neglected to take care of the descendants of meritorious ministers," Li Mu said with a cheerful face, "However, I promise, This kind of thing will never happen again.”

"We, the Yun family, cannot bear the apology from Master Si." The old woman's face remained unchanged and she said calmly: "If you are done, please come back. This place is dirty and smelly, and you are not a person like Master Li. A place to stay.”

This resentment is really great.

Li Mu smiled bitterly.

"Old man, I see that you are ill, can you allow me to examine you?" Li Mu said respectfully. For an old man over two hundred years old, it is normal for him to be so weak, no matter how resentful he is. Li Mu can still angry?

"No need, I can't afford it." The old woman refused without thinking.

Yun Shuangyan hurriedly advised from the side: "Grandma, Master Li is really sincere in coming here. If it weren't for Master Li today, my grandson and I would be in big trouble..." He quickly told what happened in the Juxian Pavilion Restaurant, I said it again, I didn’t say it before because I was afraid that grandma would worry, but now I can’t.

"Really? Thank you so much, Mr. Li." The old woman's cold attitude did not change at all.

Li Shang took one look and couldn't help but said angrily: "Madam, you are too unkind, my lord..."

"Shut up." Li Mu said directly: "How dare you speak to Mrs. Yun like this."

"But my lord, it's obviously not your fault that you took office..."

"Back off."

"This...obeys your order."

After being scolded by Li Mu, Li Shang and others left the courtyard directly.

Li Mu said: "I know Madam has resentment in her heart. Regarding the Yun family, Ming Yesi owes a lot, but that is all in the past. From now on..."

"What do you know?" The old woman suddenly spoke, interrupting Li Mu's question.

Li Mu was startled.

"You don't know anything." The old woman looked at Li Mu, the expression on her face softened slightly, and said: "Go back, Mr. Li, all your enthusiasm and sincerity can't change anything. You may be a good person. , he is a good official, but he shouldn’t get involved with the Yun family. Let’s go quickly. It’s rare for Mingye Division to have someone to preside over it, so don’t waste it on such meaningless things.”

Um?

It was only now that Li Mu truly reacted.

This is just fear... not resentment.
