Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Elders of the Family
"Hehe, this little guy is really interesting. In this way, it is still very cost-effective for me to get out of the customs this time!"
Outside the Shunfu Pharmacy, about sixty years away, a white-haired old man was stroking his long beard under his chin, looking with interest at the room that shone with a glimmer of yellow light.
"It's Yun Jie's incompetence! rashly alarmed the seventeenth uncle Qingxiu, Yun Jie really didn't want to go!"
Behind the old man, Yue Yunjie bowed with shame on his face, and his expression was extremely respectful.
"What you said is wrong, if you still refuse to call me at this time, then I will really knock you on the head! If you were more clever at that time, why would my Yue family be so passive?"
The old man's eyes rolled and he snorted dissatisfiedly. "The reason why this kid wants to kill Hongfei, have you already found out?"
It is said to be related to a storm that occurred in the Shunfu Pharmacy yesterday. Na Hongfei also participated in it and was humiliated by Yue Yu. The reason why the little guy is like this this time is probably because he suspects that Hongfei suddenly proposed marriage with bad intentions. I still have to check the specific situation. ”
Yue Yunjie frowned, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
When the old man heard this, he flicked his sleeves, and a hint of ridicule crossed his expression. Although he didn't know the details, he had already seen through the world in the past hundred years, and at this time, just looking at Yue Yunjie's embarrassed look, he had roughly guessed the hidden meaning.
"If you know this, why do you have to say yes? Do you know this and pretend to be deceived, or do you really not know anything about it?"
Yue Yunjie was silent, although this matter really had nothing to do with him, he himself did not have any regrets. But fortunately, the old man in front of him doesn't seem to want to get too entangled in this matter. "Then what's going on with his inner breath cultivation? A thirteen-year-old martial artist, the name of the continent is enough. Why is it in the records of the clan that he is inferior and has extremely poor qualifications? The inner breath is only the second layer of the Buyun True Method?"
"This Yun Jie doesn't know either! I only know that the record in the record should be true—"
After a pause, Yue Yunjie also fell into deep thought, and he was also strange about this matter. "Uncle Seventeen, did you say he took any spirit pills?"
"Hmph! In this world, even if the spirit pill or even the spirit pill of the highest level is of the highest level, it is impossible to achieve the ultimate control of internal breath like him! Forget it! You said that he used it before, and it seems to be the true power of the Great Mixed Yuan. Or maybe his body is particularly suitable for this kind of exercise, then it may not be said. This kind of thing is not without precedent—"
The old man shook his head, then turned his head with a smirk. "How exactly did he cultivate his inner breath to the tenth layer, I don't want to know. I'm just wondering, why is this little guy so low-key when he has such an amazing talent?"
In front of Yue Yunjie's forehead, there was a dense cold sweat, but he didn't dare not answer this sentence. After a moment's hesitation, he bowed again. "My nephew has heard before that there seem to be many clansmen in my Yue clan who are plotting the Yue Yu family's land. Even my fourth deacon, Jin Xu, may be involved. A year ago, Yue Yu had almost lost his life once-"
"Is there such a thing?" the old man frowned slightly. "That Yue Yu's father, Yue Yunde, although the relationship with your brother is not good, but in the end, he has also contributed a lot of strength to my clan and my long house, so you let those ghosts and ghosts practice their younger siblings and nephews?"
"Uncle Seventeen, how dare Yun Jie be angry with his nephew for a little personal grudge? In fact, the person who pushed Yue Yu off the cliff, Yun Jie has already been executed. It's just that no evidence was found at that time, so it was only under the pretext of negligence and did not make it public. She also knows about this brother and sister—"
Yue Yunjie smiled bitterly, his face full of helplessness. "But all I can do is to severely punish the clansmen, and then give an explanation afterwards. It is impossible to cut off my long arm without evidence, just because of a suspicion. And this kind of thing, Yue Yu and his family are not the only ones in the clan. If the means are too soft, it will only make people feel lucky, but if they are too hard, they will also scatter people's hearts. In fact, this problem is still outside the valley, if we can open up another piece of territory, then all the hidden dangers can be easily solved——"
"That's why you want to reconcile with Danyun City?" the old man smiled sheepishly. "I originally said that your surname is too soft and you don't deserve the position of patriarch, but your third uncle refuses to believe it!" "It's Yunjie's incompetence, which makes you disappointed!" Yue Yunjie didn't defend himself, his face was full of shame. "Yunjie has another matter here, and I ask Seventeen Books to help me decide. The people from Light Cloud City have just offered to help us find out—"
"You have already made up your mind about this matter, why do you need to ask me again? With this little fellow's methods, not to mention that they only have so many people now, even if there are ten times more people, I am afraid that he will not be able to be found. Our Yue family always has to give an explanation to people in face. ”
The old man flicked his sleeves slightly, and then looked in the direction of the medicine shop in the distance for a moment of hesitation. "As for how to deal with this kid, let's see first! I'm really annoyed, you said that if we handed over this kid to the Hong family to deal with, would the people of Danyun City think that nothing had happened?"
This time, Yue Yunjie smiled, although the old man's words were extremely ugly, he never really vetoed his arrangement from beginning to end, and his love for his junior was still the same as before.
The scene that happened outside the window, Yue Yu was naturally ignorant. By the time he stitched up his wounds, he was already halfway through the third watch. Then he slept in Huang Fan's room. At this time, Nancheng was still vigorously searching, and even the door of their pharmacy was knocked on twice in a row in the second half. However, this kind of time, Yue Yu had experienced a lot in his previous life, and he had a lot of experience in how to deal with the tail of the hand. This night, they were all avoided without danger.
And by the next day, his wound was not yet healed. But his face was no longer as pale as a dead man when he came back yesterday. If you carefully apply some powder and rouge, it will look almost the same as a normal person's complexion.
The only thing Yue Yu was worried about was Yue Zhang's carefulness. Now he has to hope that Yue Zhang's family is indeed in a trance as Huang Fan said. Maybe a moment of negligence can help him get through the border safely.
In addition, there are also the clothes that he wore yesterday, Yue Yu deliberately let them get some dirt and dust, and then get sweat stains. It looks like you've been in the wild for a while. And when he had done all this, Yue Yu had Lin Zhuo summoned him to the front again.
"What have you thought about it, would you like to be my slave?"
Lin Zhuo's face swelled into blue and purple, and his lips moved, but he didn't make a sound. In the end, he simply bent down and bowed deeply towards Yue Yu.
Yue Yu immediately smiled when he saw this, what Lin Zhuo did to him was the etiquette of meeting his master. This obviously means that he has agreed to be a servant in his house. And in his expression, there is no reluctance from yesterday. However, with this person's arrogant surname, if he wants to say words like young master and young master right now, it is basically impossible.
In fact, with Lin Zhuo's surname, although it is a bit like his previous life. But if it weren't for the fact that there was a real shortage of manpower around him yesterday, he would definitely not pay attention to it. But this person's performance after that can be regarded as barely to his spleen and stomach. As for whether to help this person or not, it will depend on the situation in the future.
However, although this matter was finalized, at the moment, it was impossible for Yue Yu to bring this person into the house. Arousing suspicion is one thing, the important thing is that the Yue Zhang clan has no intention of inviting another martial artist now, and in addition, Lin Zhuo himself seems to have other expectations for the clan conference in a few days.
Therefore, Yue Yu sent Lin Zhuo to leave early in the morning. As for him and Ran Li, it wasn't until after the hour before they wore the disguised clothes, pretending to have just returned from outside the city, and walked to the north of the city. On the way, the two of them deliberately went to the shop where they bought tights, and looked at Yue Youning's forging shop, and sure enough, both stores had never opened!
