In the hall of the main courtyard of the Mu clan, the three sandalwood seats on the top are all idle in the middle and right positions at the moment, only on the left seat, there is a middle-aged man with an angry anger.

"Tell me, who commanded you to do this. Mu Sen said angrily.

The group of people kneeling below is the group of Mu family members at today's temple fair. The pale cyan uniform at the head replied tremblingly, "Great Elder, we are also doing this for the great cause of the family. ”

"Bang!" Mu Sen stretched out his hand and slammed it on the table beside him, "Ridiculous! Doing such a despicable method and falsely claiming that it is for the great cause of the family? What about your blood? What about the pride of being a warrior? The face of the old ancestor will be lost by you!"

"We know our mistakes......" several people said in unison.

Seeing this, Mu Sen almost picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it on their heads, but when he picked it up, he quickly and carefully put it back. Today, I used my favorite moon white jade teacup.

"I ask you who instructed you to do this!"

The man in the pale cyan uniform buried his head heavily, "It was a few of us who made the right decisions and acted cleverly to direct this clumsy farce, not at the behest of anyone, and asked the Great Elder to punish him!"

Mu Sen laughed angrily, "Hehe, good, very good, now this Mu family, my Mu Sen's words don't have any effect, right?

"We definitely didn't mean that, it's just that I instigated a few of them from the beginning, and all the cause and effect are just because of my great rebellion, and now that I have made a big mistake, how dare I frame others and shirk responsibility?

"Full of nonsense!" Mu Sen got up suddenly, he had to be angry, and he was about to slap to death these little bastards who couldn't listen to good words.

"Second brother, why are you so angry?" A man in a green robe walked in, with a tall figure and an eagle vulture jade pendant at his waist, which was lifelike, especially a pair of blazing eagle eyes, as if they were portrayed according to the man's eyes.

"Big brother?" Mu Sen asked suspiciously, "Are you out of the customs?"

The person who can be called the eldest brother by Mu Sen is not the head of the Mu family.

Mu Chophuo first commanded the few people who were prostrate on the ground: "You go down first." ”

"Yes, Patriarch. ”

For example, a few people who have been forgiven by the Holy Decree immediately get up quickly and quickly retreat outside the gate.

Now that Mu Chopper has spoken, Mu Sen naturally will not make a mistake and block the way of those people. What is most important to the head of the family must be the weight of the speech

Mu Shuhuo came to the seat in the middle and sat down, and said, "This retreat has been quite fruitful, and it has faintly touched the threshold of the situational realm. ”

......Is that the realm?

Mu Sen clenched his fists and said, "This is the great joy of the family!"

Mu Chophuo waved his hand and motioned for Mu Sen to sit down first, "Since my strength has made great progress, it means that the family is about to usher in a new and best opportunity, success or failure, it all depends on how to grasp this opportunity." ”

"Then today's actions, is it also related to the eldest brother?" Mu Sen's face sank and asked.

"It doesn't matter if it's an order I gave or not, which of the two do you think has anything to do with me, the patriarch?" asked Mu Shuhuo rhetorically.

Mu Chophuo continued: "Extraordinary times are done in extraordinary ways, and besides, it is just a small means. The so-called soldiers are not tired of cheating, besides, do you think...... Can this be considered a 'fraud'?"

"The second brother thinks that all the actions of non-gentlemen can be attributed to 'treachery'. Mu Sen said.

"Haha...... Mu Chohuo laughed instead of being angry, "Yes, yes, can the eldest brother be understood as, black and white?"

"No, the two have nothing to do with each other. Mu Sen watched Mu Chop Fire and hold the cup in his palm, ready to drink tea.

Mu Shuhuo just nodded, he didn't know much about his second brother's temperament, and he wasn't much annoyed. He lifted the lid of the cup, and the tea was lukewarm but just right, so he took a sip and was silent.

Mu Sen suddenly asked: "So today's matter of the eldest brother is just an appetizer, and then you will return to power, are you going to personally arrange the camp?"

Mu Chophuo's thin lips left the rim of the cup slightly, and replied lightly: "The string has opened the bow, so naturally there is no turning back to the arrow." ”

Mu Sen didn't sit back in his seat for a long time, and the accumulated resentment was finally vented, "Big brother, since you have reached a higher level of strength, now the strength of the Mu family is bound to be different from the past, why do you still use such despicable means? No matter whether it succeeds or fails, it is not the work of the eldest husband." What's more, it was exposed in public like today, although there is no full evidence that the Mu family intended to harm the Mo family, but do you think those people are blind? In the iron ore marrow that is about to be handed over to the Mu family, the lost demon core of the Mu family was found, unless those good deeds are the pig's heads just now, otherwise anyone with a little eyesight can see that it is inseparable from the Mu family. ”

"Since the sword is on the sidelines, it is natural to be prepared to lose the sword. Mu Chopping Fire said disapplaudedly.

"You don't call the sword to go sideways, it's completely a side-by-side way, and the secret arrow hurts people!" Mu Sen said word for word.

Mu Chohuo seemed to have been consumed by Mu Sen's stubbornness, his face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Oh? According to your opinion, the current Mu family should be regarded as righteous and bright, and can win this game steadily? Or, what should you do if you want to be the patriarch of your brother? ”

"You can compete in a dignified manner, the winner is the king, now my Mu family will be inferior to his Mo family!"

"To put it mildly, it is righteous and arrogant, do you know how much blood of the children of the family will be added because of your 'dignified and upright'?" Mu Shuhuo suddenly reprimanded, "As a family elder, if you let the clansmen behind you sacrifice your own lives just to maintain your own integrity, don't you feel ashamed!"

"If they have the same idea as me and die for the sake of the family, they will also die well, and they will definitely leave their names on the monument of the family in the future. ”

"A good one died well, then please tell me, it is the last victory over the Mo family, in exchange for a sparse grass and trees, what's the point?!"

"Then why do we have to divide life and death, what we want is nothing more than a victory or defeat of a king or a loser?"

"The wildfire can't be burned, and the spring breeze blows and grows again, don't you understand, second brother?"

"The unburned weeds can be blown and reborn in the spring breeze because no one can let them take root and sprout wantonly, but we are not wildfires, and the Mo family is not a weed......"

"That's enough! In the past hundred years of the Mu family, you are the only clansman with such a ridiculous idea, or a great elder of the Gao family, you are confused!"

Mu Sen took a deep breath, and finally hugged his fists heavily and said, "Forgive me for not being able to understand the intentions of the eldest brother, the second brother will leave!"

After speaking, Mu Sen flicked his long sleeves, turned around and left.

Mu Shuhuo sighed and drank the tea in his cup, as if he wanted to use this to extinguish the anger in his heart.

After Mu Sen left, half of his head poked out of the side door next to him, and it was Mu Xiang who had won the "Yuan Shi Seal" and "Spirit Avoidance Armor" in the auction house that day. Seeing that there was only one person left in the hall, he walked out with confidence.

"Big brother, second brother is gone?" Mu Xiang asked cautiously, judging from his hiding eyes, he was afraid that he would not be taught a lesson by Mu Sen on weekdays.

Wood Slash nodded.

Hearing this, Mu Xiang finally sighed, sat down on his seat, and said loudly: "Oh, the eldest brother, don't be like the second brother, you don't know his stubborn temperament, ten carriages are ......" Mu Xiang paused, "No! ”

Mu Shuhuo glanced at him and said, "Why didn't I see you come out to 'uphold justice' before? If you have this courage, maybe the second child will be shocked by you like this, and he will be shocked to change his sex?"

Mu Xiang hurriedly waved his hand, swinging back and forth frantically, as if he was having a convulsion, "Don't don't, big brother, you are too much to promote me, I will simply calm your dissatisfaction with you, you see that you have worked hard for family affairs all day long, and the second brother is not only inconsiderate of your hard work, but instead of singing against you, you say this is like a thing." ”

"Come on!" Mu Chophuo said angrily, "How is Master Ji's side?"

"I went to see it this morning, and Master Ji said that everything is ready, and the iron ore marrow will be delivered tomorrow, and it will be done. Mu Xiang replied, and then he seemed to remember something, something that had puzzled him for a long time, and he asked carefully, "Big brother, what is the origin of that monsoon, how do you know so many inside stories, even the Lan Auction House......"

Mu Xiang immediately stopped the topic again, worried that if he said too much, he would lose it, and instead said: "I don't think it's as God can explain it, there must be something to rely on." Although he did not clearly state what the specific 'heavy treasures' of the auction were, judging from the importance he attached to and the fact that he was willing to give us two 'Condensation Seals' as a follow-up, it is likely that he had already made preparations. ”

Mu Chophuo was extremely indifferent, and said: "Everyone has their own ulterior secrets, and as an inscription master, he is such a strange person with a treacherous temperament, so he is naturally no exception. We have only an ordinary interest relationship with him, and we can, but we don't need to get to the bottom of it. In the past, I gave me a good reward and asked him to join the Mu family to help me, but now there is a slight change, speaking of which, I have to thank the Mo family and the Lei Zhan mercenary group, which was self-defeating, but stabilized the relationship between the Mu family and him. Since it seems that it is harmless to us at the moment, I don't care how unusual that monsoon is. ”

Mu Xiang pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Since the eldest brother has already made plans, there is no need for me to draw snakes. ”

Mu Shuhuo glared at him, "You!"

"I thought that killing two birds with one stone would not only discredit the Mo family, but also bring the iron mine to the Mu family, but now there is a little accident, but it doesn't matter, sooner or later it will be in the bag. With a confident face, Mu Shuhuo stood up from his seat and walked briskly towards the outside of the hall.

"Go see that monsoon. ”

"Eh, big brother, you let me take a break, I stood in the back for a long time before I finally sat down. Mu Xiang shouted at Mu Slash Fire, but the latter continued to walk out without looking back.

The two came to a remote courtyard of the Mu family, and there was a vigorous and strong man standing on the left and right of the door.

Mu Chohuo and Mu Xiang walked into the small building in the courtyard with a familiar way, and they came to the innermost part of the small building, where there was a square wooden table, and there were three vases on the table, planted with peony flowers of the same color. The wood chopping fire struck the neck of the flower bottle in the middle, twice on the belly of the vase on the left, and three times on the mouth of the vase on the right.

Then the next moment, the wooden table actually creaked and began to slowly move to the left.

As the square wooden table moved sideways, a pitch-black passage was revealed on the floor. Mu Xiang snapped his fingers, and with a few "poofs", a firelight lit up on the stone walls on both sides below the entrance of the passage, illuminating the steps that extended downward layer by layer.

The two of them went down the passage, walked about thirty steps, and a secret room of dozens of square meters appeared.

In the center of the secret room, a black robe stood in front of a cloud furnace, covered with bits and pieces of discarded materials, and in the cloud furnace, the weak fire cloud was almost dissipated.

Wood Chopping Fire and Wood Direction walked forward, and the black robe remained straight in front of the cloud furnace, motionless.

In other words, the monsoon, who is naturally alert, must have noticed them early.

Moreover, at this time, the breath of the monsoon was extremely weak, and it was almost impossible to feel it, which made Mu Chopping Fire and Mu Xiangwan all shocked.

Did he die violently?

Mu Xiang was just about to step forward to confirm, when suddenly, a pair of slightly blood-colored eyes in the black robe suddenly opened. The fire clouds in the cloud furnace revived and churned violently.

As the head of the clan, Mu Chopping Fire is calm enough and looks calm.

And Mu Xiang on the side was so shocked by this sudden "resurrection" that he jumped up nearly one meter high.

"Truly, the wood patriarch is out of the customs?"

The low and hoarse voice in the black robe echoed in the secret room, and the few gray firelights on the wall were disturbed by the air that came in from outside the dark passage, and the candles were chaotic, adding a bit of gloomy feeling.

"Thank you Master Ji for your concern, everything went well. Mu Chopping Fire walked around the cloud furnace and asked, "How is Master Ji's progress? Do you need the Mu family to do a little bit of effort? ”

"Didn't you just come to inspect once in the morning?" said Monsoon, glancing at Mu Xiang on the side.

"Master Ji is serious, but he just cares, how can he talk about inspection. Mu Shuhuo smiled, "The main thing is that this matter is very important, and I am still a little uneasy to convey it through the third brother." I was worried that he might have missed something, and failed to convey Master Ji's instructions to me thoroughly. ”

"Huh...... You people are always making noise. Since I have promised you, I will not be perfunctory. Monsoon stretched out his hand and flicked it on the cloud furnace to disperse the fire clouds, "When will the iron ore marrow arrive, and when will the inscription be handed over to you." He should have told you that?"

"Haha, with Master Ji's words, the old man is relieved. Mu Chohuo laughed loudly: "Tonight, I will hold a banquet for Master Ji, thank Master Ji for his great help, and comfort Master Ji for his painstaking efforts. ”

Ji Feng turned around as if he didn't appreciate it, and his tone suddenly became a little ruthless, "There is no need for the banquet, I just hope you remember the original agreement, after the matter is completed, those people will be handed over to me to deal with, remember, I want to live." ”

Ji Feng's right fist was clenched, and the killing intent was clear: "I want to refine them one by one into ashes!"
