Chapter 5 Human Affection is Warm and Cold

Hao Hao Tangtang's team escorted the "sinner" Ye Xun to the mayor's residence, and the cry was earth-shattering, spreading almost to every corner of Dragoon Town, attracting more and more people to join.

When the pace of the team stopped in front of the mayor's residence, its number had almost included all the townspeople of Dragoon Town, and they all wanted to see what the mayor would do with Ye Xun, who was "carrying" dozens of lives and was his own grandson.

At this time, Dashan in the front row of the team took a step forward, clasped his fists at the people in the room and said, "Zhen ......"

Boom!

Before the mountain could finish speaking, the door opened with a bang, and then a majestic elemental fluctuation poured out of the house, and everyone was shocked and retreated, all feeling the pressure like a mountain, but this fluctuation dissipated in only a moment.

A slightly angry voice sounded in the room: "Are you going to rebel?"

As soon as these words came out, the people who were originally in a high-pitched mood were a little stunned, and they felt the anger in those words, and for a while, no one dared to speak up anymore.

In a moment, an old figure slowly emerged from the darkness of the room, standing with his hands in his hands. During this period, Ye Xun was a thief, and Ye Zhihui knew something about it, but he knew his grandson's temperament, so he regarded it as a rumor, and he was also unhappy with the brainless followers of these participants.

Ye Zhihui swept through the crowd lightly, and said lightly: "Why, most of the people in the town came to me today, do you think that my old bones are no longer good, and you can take it at will?"

Hearing this, everyone was silent, and under Ye Zhihui's questioning, the original excitement in their hearts disappeared without a trace, after all, there was no complete evidence in their hands for this matter.

In the front row of the team, there is a burly figure with his head lowered, this person is Wu Kui, the first warrior of Dragoon Town, seeing that everyone is angry because of the mayor, Wu Kui's eyes are slightly drooping, he must speak, otherwise this desire to add to the crime, I am afraid it will not be able to do it.

Taking a step forward, he clenched his fists and said: "Mayor Town, I have also heard a little, I heard that Ye Xun is the thief of our Dragoon Town, and there is also some evidence in the hands of some people, which can basically confirm this suspicion, so the townspeople have gathered here today to hear your opinion." ”

Ukui's words defined himself as a bystander, opening up the topic well, and at the same time keeping himself out of the matter.

Hearing this, some people in the crowd began to echo, these people were all Ukui's cronies, and because of their beginning, some of the rest of the people also seemed to have a backbone, and began to pour out their dissatisfaction.

"yes, yes, we all want to hear what Mayor Mare thinks. ”

"If Ye Xun is really as some people guess that he is this thief, and there is enough evidence to confirm it, then you can't cover him up. ”

Seeing this, Ye Zhihui frowned secretly, and said lightly: "Since it is said that there is evidence, then take it out, if there is enough evidence to support your judgment, then even if it is a cronie, I will act impartially." ”

At this time, Dashan in the crowd cleared his throat and said at the right time: "Mayor Town, as we all know, Ye Xun only has a beginner-level cultivator, and on the night of the attack, he unfortunately fell into the encirclement of more than twenty black shadows, each of which is far superior to Ye Xun's strength, under this, it is impossible for him to escape." ”

Dashan faced the people behind him: "However, Ye Xun came back alive, this doesn't make sense at all." ”

Everyone nodded, looking deeply sympathetic.

Dashan sneered in his heart, and said: "Moreover, Mayor of the town, you may not know that Ye Xun not only came back alive, but even his sick body was strangely and inexplicably cured. ”

Dashan's eyes narrowed slightly: "Everyone knows that the disease will make Ye Xun cough often, especially when he exerts his strength, and his face is usually sickly white." ”

But not long ago, Ye Xun frantically beat Wu Li and knocked him down, without the slightest weakness, not only did he not cough, but even his complexion was much better, if it weren't for the surrounding townspeople who arrived in time to stop Ye Xun, otherwise Wu Li would have been seriously injured. ”

Dashan asked the crowd to vacate the center, revealing Ye Xun, who was restrained by a few people, and motioned for Ye Zhi to take a look.

Dashan showed a palpitating expression: "Mayor Town, you know, Uli is the leader of the younger generation in our Dragoon Town, if he is seriously injured, it will be a very bad thing, and this matter also makes me feel scared for a while." ”

As the words fell, some of Uqua's followers began to whisper.

"Yes, Mayor Town, Uli is the most outstanding young man in our Dragoon Town, if he is seriously injured and affects his cultivation, then his progress in the future will most likely be greatly reduced. ”

"Ye Xun's actions, I think it seems that he wants to kill people and get rid of Wu Li, the only person who knows the truth, so that his bad deeds can be well covered. ”

"If it weren't for Ye Xun doing something wrong, I think he would have no reason to fight Wu Li. ”

"Ye Xun's illness has suddenly improved, is it ......?"

"Could it be that he is in collusion with this dark shadow, exchanging the secrets of Dragoon Town's operations for some kind of medicine that can cure his disease?"

"Maybe......"

Under the guidance of these people's wind direction, other people also followed suit for a while, expressing their inner dissatisfaction, and asking the mayor to severely punish the "sinner" Ye Xun.

In the crowd, Wu Li sneered secretly, his eyes narrowed, Ye Xun, Ye Xun, even if your cheap life is hard enough, you will not die surrounded by more than 20 black shadows, but today, I want to see if you still have the ability to continue to get out.

Looking at the indignant appearance of the townspeople, Ye Zhihui frowned, and the hand behind his back clenched into a fist, today, I am afraid that it will not be peaceful.

"Alright, stop. A voice wrapped in elemental energy made everyone stop, and everyone turned their eyes to Ye Zhihui.

"In that case, then why don't you listen to what Ye Xun has to say?"

Hearing this, Wu Li sneered in his heart, hmph, listen to him, these "evidences" are here, no matter what he says, it is impossible for everyone to believe him anymore.

Hearing this, everyone turned their eyes to Ye Xun and waited for Ye Xun to speak.

Now Ye Xun has no anger, and when he heard this, he said calmly: "After I was surrounded by sneak attackers, I also felt that I would definitely die, but I was very lucky, at that moment, there was a powerful girl who killed these sneak attackers and saved me, and I still have the necklace she left behind, which I wear around my neck." ”

Ye Xun's gaze fluctuated slightly: "However, the reason why I fell into the encirclement of the sneak attackers was because Uli sneaked up on me, I could have escaped on horseback, but he was extremely insidious and stopped me, not only did he escape on horseback alone, but he also pushed me, who was extremely weak at that time, to the knife of the black shadow." ”

Ye Xun's eyes had a hint of determination: "Not only that, but after I returned to the town, Wu Li saw that I was not dead, and the wicked person sued first and pushed the leakage of the action on my head." ”

"The reason why I attacked him was because he harmed me first, and later, in the process of fighting, he repeatedly pretended to be invincible to me, which led to the lie that I had recovered from my illness. ”

"As for why I didn't cough, I don't know. ”

Ye Xun's eyes looked at Wu Li, as sharp as a sword: "But I think it should be that God also thinks that Wu Li should be damned, so he has some favor for me." ”

Ye Zhihui glanced at everyone indifferently: "You... What do you think?"

Everyone looked at each other and whispered.

"This..."

At this time, Ukui took a step forward: "Ridiculous!

"You said that someone rescued you, let's not talk about why this person saved you, just with a pendant of unknown origin, how to prove your statement, you are simply insulting our intelligence, are you trying to make fun of the dead relatives of the townspeople?!"

As soon as these words came out, some people had a trace of anger in their eyes and echoed them.

"yes, are you trying to make fun of our dead relatives?"

"It's a big rebellion..."

Wu Kui didn't seem to have seen Ye Zhihui's faintly cold eyes, and continued: "Moreover, the sudden recovery of your illness is a fact in front of the townspeople, it's not like you can fool the past with just a few words, don't take us for fools!"

"Moreover, you still want to kill people and get rid of Uli, the only witness, this is simply a hurtful thing, how can you do it?"

At this moment, Ye Xun seemed to have become the target of everyone, being blamed and abused by the angry townspeople.

"What a cheap breed! betrayed his whereabouts, so that my family Erha also died in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, and until now, the body has not been brought back. ”

"Pity my son, I didn't get to see him for the last time before I died. ”

"Such a big rebellion, his heart can be punished!"

"Yes, damn it!"

"We can't let this little bastard stay in our Dragoon Town to plague us, or we don't know how many more townsfolk will die under his schemes. ”

"What a vicious man!"

At this time, under this pervasive "spike", Ye Xun was surprisingly quiet, and his eyes were as light as water: "Heh, people are warm and cold, and the world is hot and cold." ”

"When I didn't have an accident, everyone was honest with me because I was the grandson of the mayor of the town, but after I had an accident, they were so tight that they wished I died. ”

"Maybe the perseverance I showed when I was cultivating was nothing more than stupidity in your eyes. ”

"Maybe I, a sick person who has nothing to do with Dragoon, is a lazy eater, a drunken eater, a waste of food you get, right?"

"Did you wish I had died, but I have survived until now, maybe your heart must have gone crazy, right?"

Ye Xun didn't smile bitterly, calm as water, he couldn't understand this feeling if he hadn't experienced it, only when he really experienced it, he could well experience this kind of cone stinging pain.

Ye Zhihui looked at his calm grandson, as if he understood something, and there was a trace of distress in his vicissitudes of life, my poor grandson!

"Enough!"

Ye Zhihui stomped his feet, and an elemental fluctuation surged out, sweeping away all these disturbing whispers like flies.

Looking at his grandson, he said a little tiredly, "I already understand what you think. ”

looked at everyone: "But! This is not enough to prove that Ye Xun is a thief, because all the evidence you said is from your imagination, and you have not seen it with your own eyes." ”

There was a hint of anger in the vicissitudes of life: "And this Wuli is also suspicious, but I don't know how you managed to only suspect Ye Xun and leave Wuli behind." ”

"That's all for today, I'm tired of listening to your nonsense. ”

Saying that, Ye Zhihui was just about to make a move, Wu Kui's voice rang out, he looked at Ye Zhihui without the slightest fear, and said with justice: "Mayor Town, I'm afraid it's not good for you to do this, you are going to chill the hearts of hundreds of people in our Dragoon Town!"

"The thief 'Ye Xun' leaked the whereabouts of the team, causing almost all of them to die in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, and there are no bones, you actually want to rely on the so-called evidence alone to reveal this matter, then we don't care about the lives of dozens of iron-clad bones in Dragoon Town?"

Wu Kui's words packaged Ye Zhihui's behavior as a cover-up, and he wanted to use his power as the mayor of the town to shield his grandson who committed a "serious crime", which made the crowd swell again.

"Yes, Mayor Town, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate for you to do this!"

Although Wuli also has some mistakes, in comparison, Ye Xun's suspicion is much higher. ”

"Mayor Mare, you must not dictate this matter, otherwise it will really chill our hearts!"

Under this surge of emotions, those who were attached to the side of Ukui were the most excited, as if the dead were themselves.

Seeing this scene, Ye Zhihui felt a deep helplessness, although he didn't know the actual situation, but judging from the things in front of him, it is undeniable that Xun'er's suspicion is indeed much higher, in the deep mountains and wild forests, the probability of the noble person saving each other is very small, and this strange recovery of the sick body is the most inexplicable, and it is also the most suspicious.

"I thought I could get this matter over, even if it was to slow down, and after I asked Xun'er, I would be much more relaxed in the face, but..."

"Alas, as the mayor of a town, I have a great responsibility, and the emotions of these townspeople are so angry and excited, which gives me great pressure, if I do something a little inappropriate, maybe in the future, the people's hearts may no longer be inclined to me, then this dragoon town, I am afraid, I am afraid that it will really be destroyed in my hands. ”

"And this Wukui ......" Ye Zhihui glanced at Wukui deeply, with something in his eyes.

"Hmph, I've always been humble, but now I'm so unafraid, maybe, I should have received some kind of support, but although I'm an old bone, as long as I'm still in the day, you people who covet 'divine things' will not succeed!"

Ye Zhihui looked at Ye Xun, and the calmer the latter's gaze was, the more his heart stinged: "It's just Xun'er... Alas. ”

Ye Zhihui shook his head, his eyes were a little more resolute: "In this case, after two hours, when I think about it properly, I will give you a satisfactory answer, if Ye Xun is really a thief, I will also deal with it according to the truth, and I will not show mercy!"

Everyone waved their fists and said, "Okay! Mayor is wise!"

"We are waiting for you!"

These few words, as if it took Ye Zhihui's life's strength, after finishing speaking, his body seemed to be about to collapse, and he almost didn't stand still, Wu Kui, who took this scene into his eyes, sneered secretly, old man, this is just the beginning, a good show, it's still to come!

Ye Zhihui looked at Ye Xun apologetically, and his loving eyes seemed to say, "Xun'er, grandpa is sorry for you, I failed to protect you, under the title of the mayor of this town, the pressure I am under makes me unable to do things according to my wishes, I'm sorry." ”

Ye Zhihui just looked at Ye Xun like this, his eyes were full of helplessness, "Grandpa, I really want to touch your head again, but I can't." ”

Seeing Ye Zhihui like this, Ye Xun's heart finally rippled, and every look of his grandfather brought a cone-like pain, he knew, he knew, so he didn't blame Ye Zhihui.

Ye Xun looked at his grandfather seriously, his eyes were wet with tears unconsciously, and his eyes were bright, as if he was saying.

"Grandpa, I don't blame you. ”

"Deal with me like this, don't let you lose the hearts of the people because of me. ”
