Chapter 78 Something Unexpected Happened (Part 1)
It is not that easy for the sect to touch him.
Spend the sect's money and borrow the sect's power to make your own friends.
That's Yu Hu's true thoughts.
But this was better. Seeing Ye Yang being so understanding, Yu Hu admired it and thought about how to help Ye Yang.
Spiritual stones can be earned, but talents are hard to come by, especially if you are one of your own.
"Nurture him well. The stronger and more powerful he is in the sect in the future, the better it will be for the Yu Mansion. In time, if he is still in the Official Affairs Hall and breaks through to the martial arts realm, the Yu Mansion will be as stable as Mount Tai, and even... Even Qingshan’s matter can be solved easily.”
Yu Hu saw Ye Yang's potential and strength.
He warmly and cordially invited Ye Yang to Yu Mansion.
The living room of Yu Mansion occupies a large area, and the table made of fine red sandalwood and mahogany is filled with delicacies.
Yu Hu sat next to Ye Yang and poured him a glass of wine.
"This spiritual wine has been stored in a cellar for fifty years and is rarely seen outside. This fish feast was personally prepared by the chef from Beihai. You have a try, Yang'er. If you hadn't come today, I would never have specially invited that chef. come over."
"Is this the cooking skills of Beihai Lingchu?"
The table in front of him was full of delicacies, but Ye Yang had no thoughts. The words Beihai Lingchu reminded him of the words of his cousin named Qingshan when the Yu family didn't let him have dinner when he first came to Yu Mansion.
"My mother said that our Yu family is now a big family, and there are too many people who want to be relatives, so she won't let me recognize my cousin randomly."
"Today the kitchen made a stew of snow clams and Feilong. I heard that the chef from Beihai was invited to make it. I got there late and it was gone..."
…
With the echo still ringing in his ears, Ye Yang sighed secretly and brought his thoughts back to reality.
He is different from before, extraordinary now!
Yu Hu picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and motioned for Ye Yang to drink.
Ye Yang carefully thought about the purpose of Yu Hu calling him.
The most intuitive thing is naturally to ask him to show favoritism in the matter of supervision.
Yu Hu found out about this matter, which was not what he expected. After all, there is no airtight wall in the world, and there are many channels to know his whereabouts.
Ye Yang frowned slightly. It was not easy to check the accounts. Nowadays, many things are just speculations and cannot be taken as true.
He thought for a moment, picked up the wine glass, and took a few sips.
The wine was warm and powerful, slightly sweet in the mouth, and rich in sauce aroma. It tasted much better than what he had drunk at Zhang's house before.
After just a few sips, Ye Yang put the wine glass on the table and stopped talking.
His eyes wandered and he found that the Panshan Plum Blossom Stone he had given earlier had been carefully wiped, made of ebony wood, and placed in the most conspicuous position in the hall.
Ye Yang knew that Yu Mansion had prepared a lot of thoughts for his arrival and placed it on the coffee table specifically for him to see.
Ye Yang didn't speak, just looked at it quietly.
He believed that Yu Hu was a smart man. Seeing his demeanor, he would naturally understand his attitude this time.
"What's on your mind, Yang'er? Or is this food and wine not to your liking? Should I have someone make it again?"
Yu Hu smiled when he saw this and asked eagerly.
Ye Yang shook his head. Yu Hu still didn't talk about the corruption in the mine. Ye Yang knew that Yu Hu still had something to rely on.
Didn't really take him seriously.
"Uncle, I wonder what you think about the sect's inspection of corruption this time?"
Ye Yang took the initiative.
Yu Hu's expression changed: "Of course it's great. I fully support everything the sect does. Nowadays, many high-level protectors are greedy for ink spiritual stones. They should be killed!"
After finishing speaking, Yu Hu looked around and found that no one was around, then he cautiously approached Ye Yang.
"But then again! There are constant disputes between Feitian Sect and Wudu Sect, and Taiyi Qingmen is eyeing them. There is already a big gap in strength between us and Wudu Sect. Once there is a fire in the backyard, the situation will not be optimistic. What's more... "
"What's more, among those greedy people, who doesn't have a few backers?"
When Yu Hu said these words backstage, his voice suddenly rose a few decibels, as if he was reminding Ye Yang of something.
He then spoke.
"Yang'er, don't be confused by the superficial articles! Uncle, I have been here before. I have never seen any kind of storms or waves."
"Loosen when it's time to loosen up, tighten when it's time to tighten. Many policies are like rain and wind. Once they pass, they'll pass. Don't risk your bright future."
There was a glint in Yu Hu's eyes as he watched Ye Yang speak slowly.
These few words were both soft and hard, and he was confident that he could frighten these young people.
…
Outside the window, the rain pattered non-stop.
There was thunder and lightning, and the sudden lightning illuminated their faces.
Ye Yang looked at Yu Hu, whose face was dark, and he said seriously: "These things are not my uncle's business to worry about. This matter involves many high-level officials. The head of Guxuan personally arranged it. In my opinion, this is another matter." A shuffle.”
"Inspector?"
Yu Hu murmured: "This is just a temporary office of the sect. Maybe it will be removed after a while!"
Yu Hu was not surprised at all by what Ye Yang said. Although he was far away from Yuanyang Mine, a lot of information was not difficult to obtain as long as he was willing to inquire.
However, these have little to do with an ordinary disciple.
Ye Yang knew that he could no longer stay in Yu Mansion. He drank the wine in his glass in one gulp and bowed to Yu Hu.
"Uncle, I have something else to do, so I won't bother you anymore. I'm here with a mission regarding the sect. I hope my uncle will be careful and cooperate fully. Some time ago, in Shanhaiguan, the head of Guxuan asked me to talk to him about this inspection. I think it will last for a long time.”
At this moment, he came on behalf of the sect and knew that he could not be hit by Yu Hu's arrogance. Otherwise, he would be passive at every step.
"Yes... I'm rude."
Yu Hu's eyes narrowed slightly and his face turned a little livid.
But after all, he has experienced a lot, and although his face looks ugly, he still remains polite.
He picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp. The glass was empty. Ye Yang looked at the empty glass and knew that this meant clearing the place. He also knew that it was time to leave.
After walking out of the gate, Ye Yang deliberately placed 1,400 spiritual stones in the hall, then explained to the door and walked out of Yu Mansion.
Now that the situation in Yu Mansion is complicated, it would be better to return these fourteen hundred spiritual stones as soon as possible.
If not, when Yu Mansion is sealed off and it is discovered that he has a spiritual stone entanglement with Yu Mansion, it is inevitable that people with ulterior motives will make a big fuss about it.
…
Not long after Ye Yang walked out of Yu Mansion.
In the previous hall, a figure slowly walked in, it was Ye Li.
Ye Li also held a bag of spiritual stones in her hand, which Ye Yang had just left. In addition, there was an IOU.
"Ye Yang returned the spirit stones. I counted them, one thousand four hundred yuan."
"too much."
Yu Hu poured himself a glass of wine and said in a low voice. Ye Li, who noticed Yu Hu's emotions, said, "Why, the conversation wasn't very pleasant."
Yu Hu nodded: "Ye Yang is a smart man. It is not easy for the other party to return the spirit stone at this critical moment! This is because he is worried that something wrong with my Yu family will involve him."
This son is not simple. According to Yu Hu's idea, he used family affection, spiritual stones and power to bribe Ye Yang.
But the young man seemed to see what he was thinking, so he stopped talking and left with an excuse.
Such people know how to advance and retreat, understand the general trend, and are difficult to control.
Such a friend is a good mentor.
If it is an enemy, it will make people's scalp numb.
"The situation has become so serious."
Ye Li exclaimed.
"Don't worry, it's not serious yet. I've already sent a letter to the people behind me to fix it, and I'll make arrangements for it in the near future."
…
Returning to the inn, Ye Yang was thinking about how to find a breakthrough. At this moment, a pigeon flew from a distance.
It was raining continuously and the pigeons were already soaked.
Ye Yang stretched out his hand, and the white dove jumped into his hand and rubbed his palm with its red beak.
Ye Yang untied the note from the pigeon's leg, picked it up and looked at it carefully. The next moment, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Then he seemed to think of something and let out a long breath.
"If that's the case, it's a good thing."
The content of the letter is very simple, only a few lines. The idea was to ask him to return to the sect as soon as possible, and another person would be in charge of the matters at the Yuanyang Mine.
Ye Yang did not reply immediately. Instead, he touched his nose with his hand and thought carefully about the intention behind the sect.
Logically speaking, he had just arrived at the Yuanyang Mine and had not yet officially investigated.
The news from the sect has arrived. There is no ghost here and no one can believe it.
On the other hand, after talking to Yu Hu, the sect had already sent a message, which he couldn't help but think about.
After thinking for a while, Ye Yang suddenly realized.
"It seems that the person behind Yu Hu initiated the relationship. In that case..."
Ye Yang smiled slightly: "It depends on the result."
It can be seen that the price Yu Hu paid was not light.
After a few simple replies, Ye Yang tied the paper to the white pigeon's leg again. After fluttering its wings, the white pigeon flew back into the distance again.
Since he is no longer needed for the Yuanyang Mine, Ye Yang is thinking about returning to Feitianmen to prepare for the title of Feitian Qizhen.
He stopped saying hello to Yu Fu, turned over and mounted his horse, and ran quickly towards Feitian Gate.
The battle for the Feitian Qizhen is about to begin, and Ye Yang does not want to waste time on the road.
…
Riding a horse and wearing a raincoat, Ye Yang walked along and the scene he saw was like a hell on earth.
There are corpses of refugees everywhere, and corpses soaked and whitened can often be seen in many ditches and pools.
Old people, young people, men and women are everywhere.
Many cliffs have been washed away by rain, and small rivers have swelled like big rivers, and big rivers have stretched like rivers and seas.
A land of water.
What frightened Ye Yang the most was that food prices had skyrocketed, especially the prices of spiritual wheat and spiritual rice, which had more than doubled.
In the past, a piece of spiritual stone could buy ten pounds of ordinary large-leaf spiritual rice or yellow-shell spiritual rice.
But now it takes three spiritual stones to buy ten kilograms, and there is even a price but no market. Many places have closed the market and no longer sell spiritual grains to the outside world.
Spiritual food is precious and plays an important role in cleansing the marrow and refining the essence. It is an indispensable food for practitioners in the process of practice.
Once there is a shortage of this food, practitioners at the bottom can only choose to take ordinary food. Not only will their cultivation progress be greatly affected, but in the long run, they will be dragged down by the mundane world and their realm may decline.
