Chapter 136 World Morals (two chapters in one)

On this day, Jiayuan City, the largest city in Lanzhou, was full of people.Cars and horses are constantly coming and going, which is very lively.

In the midst of this constant flow of people, a young man came to the most famous and time-honored Xiangjia Restaurant in the city.

This person is dressed in purple and white clothes, embroidered with dragon and phoenix seals, gorgeous and gorgeous.The appearance is even more red lips and white teeth, sword eyebrows and star eyes, anyone who sees her will give a compliment for her good skin.

The young man looked around curiously, especially at the entrance of the bustling mansion for a while, and then went up to the second floor with unpretentious steps.

On the second floor by the window, a young man with an ordinary appearance in a blue shirt had been waiting for a long time.

"Old Han!" Lu Yunze greeted with a smile.

Han Li rolled his eyes, pointed to the opposite chair and signaled him to sit by himself.

Lu Yunze didn't care, he sat down carelessly, invited the waiter, and ordered more than a dozen dishes in a row without being polite at all, it seemed that he was still a little bit unsatisfied.

It made Xiao Er look puzzled, thinking that they had to wait for many people, and enthusiastically recommended the two of them to wait in the private room upstairs.

In the end, Han Li, who couldn't take it any longer, drove Xiao Er away and gave him a vicious look.

"Why are you staring at me? The last time I ate seriously was twenty years ago. Why don't you allow me to eat more good food?"

Lu Yunze rolled his eyes and said straightforwardly.

Han Li didn't bother to pay attention to him, but turned his head to look at the mansion outside the window.

At this time, the main gate of the mansion was full of people coming and going, people from all walks of life and religions came here to congratulate, and the exquisitely packaged gifts were piled up from the door to the door. The servants were so tired that their heads were sweating, but no matter how hard they moved things, Just can't keep up with the speed of gift increase.

A steward in a bright red shirt stood at the door, greeted many guests very familiarly, and watched these servants struggling, with an unconcealable joy on his face.

On the top of the gate, a red silk cloth representing great joy was hung on the plaque of Li's mansion. This plaque was polished to a bright shine without a trace of dust.

A nameless anger burned in Han Li's heart. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that those two words were an eyesore, and he wished he could smash the plaque immediately.

Lu Yunze followed Han Li's line of sight suspiciously, and glanced at the Li residence outside the window.

Today, the only daughter of the second son of the Li family is full moon, and everyone in the city, regardless of high or low, can visit her.Even if you are just a poor beggar, you can ask for a glass of water and wine to be happy.

As a result, in today's huge restaurant, apart from the shopkeeper and the waiter, there are only guests at their table. Compared with the opposite side, it looks very deserted.

When the two were looking at Li's mansion, a luxurious carriage drove up from the other side of the street. Many wealthy businessmen and wealthy households in luxurious clothes immediately moved out of the way with their entourage when they saw the carriage.For fear of hitting the owner of the carriage.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Li Mansion, and a middle-aged man with a pale yellow face got off.

The steward at the door hurried up to greet him, said some words of welcome, and led the person towards the door.

Lu Yunze's gaze rested on the middle-aged man for a moment, and he frowned imperceptibly, then he greeted Xiaoer curiously and asked, "Little brother, whose carriage is that? Why are you so arrogant?"

Xiao Er was smiling all over his face at first, but after hearing what Lu Yunze said, his face turned pale, and he waved his hands quickly and said:

"Guest officer, don't dare to talk nonsense. It's the carriage of Lord Shepherd of Lanzhou. Today I came here specially to congratulate the only daughter of the second young master of the Li family."

"Second young master of the Li family?" Lu Yunze glanced at him suspiciously.

"A second young master is such a big scene?"

Xiao Er hurriedly waved his hands again, his eyes subconsciously looked around, and he was relieved to see that there was no one around.

"Guest officer, misfortune comes from your mouth. Don't say such things again."

Lu Yunze suddenly became interested, stuffed Xiaoer with a silver ingot, and asked curiously: "Tell me about it in detail? Then the Li family is so grand?"

The little second hand sank, looking at the silver ingot weighing at least twenty taels, his eyes were shining.

"Thank you, guest officer, for the reward! To tell you the truth, the Li family is the number one family in our Jiayuan City! Wealth is so powerful!"

"The head of the Li family, that's the head of the Five Colors Sect. Looking at the entire Lanzhou, it is one of the best big gangs. You see, even Master Zhou must respect them three points!"

Speaking of this, Xiaoer's eyes flashed with longing, which seemed to mean that a man should be like this.

Lu Yunze glanced at him, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth.

"Guest officer, you don't know. In the past, Jiayuan City really wasn't the only one of the Five Colors Gate, there were two other two, and the Five Colors Gate was in a tripartite rivalry."

"At that time, no matter who looked at it, they felt that the five-color gate of the Li family was the most low-key and least threatening among the three forces. But who knows, first, the owner of the Ouyang villa who dominated the villa died inexplicably. Then it was that The Mohist family had their door destroyed overnight."

"The Li family became the number one family in Jiayuan City so quietly, even the residence of the Mo family was taken."

Having said that, Xiao Er's eyes flashed a few traces of reminiscence and almost imperceptible ripples.

"Back then, the three daughters of the Mo family were famous in Jiayuan City, and they were all genuine beauties. But who would have thought that the second and third daughters of the Mo family disappeared overnight, and the eldest daughter of the Mo family was also inexplicable. I married the second son of the Li family, and now even the child is full moon."

Speaking of the three daughters of the Mohist family, Xiaoer's tone was tinged with a bit of reluctance, perhaps he didn't even notice it.

Lu Yunze sighed softly, glanced at Han Li whose expression was getting more and more serious, and waved his hand to signal Xiao Er to go down first.

Han Li stared at the Li family's mansion. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the former Mo mansion was more pleasing to the eye.

He had already heard what the mistress said long before Lu Yunze came. The voice and smile of the senior sister in the past seemed to be still vivid in his memory, but now she has become the wife of the enemy.

But I don't know how much sadness and helplessness there is in it.

Thinking of this, Han Li suddenly clenched the teacup in his hand.

"Old Lu, I want to ask you something." As Han Li was talking, he turned his head and saw Lu Yunze buried in his food.

More than a dozen dishes filled the table, not even a teacup could fit.The few dishes on the edge of the table were almost half on the table, and they might fall off at any time.

Han Li frowned in disgust, "Are you serious?"

Lu Yunze gave him a sad and indignant look, but said nothing.

Twenty years!The most serious thing he has eaten in the past twenty years is Han Li's Dingyan Pill, which is sweet anyway!

Others... don't mention it!
Lu Yunze gnawed a big mouthful of meat viciously, and the people around were amazed when he saw it, and thought that this little brother didn't look like he was short of money, he looked like he was reincarnated like a starving ghost.

The corners of Han Li's eyes twitched, and he sighed helplessly, drinking his tea while waiting for him to finish.

Half an hour later, Lu Yunze spit out the last bone from his mouth, leaned on the chair contentedly and let out a long breath.

"It feels so good to be alive." Lu Yunze admired from the bottom of his heart.

Han Li didn't know what to say, he waved his hand to signal Xiao Er to take the plate away, then put a soundproof cover on his back, turned his head and asked Lu Yunze seriously.

"Lu Yunze, behind the five-color gate is the Spirit Beast Mountain, right?"

Lu Yunze nodded and said: "This kind of thing is not a secret. Although the major factions tacitly don't touch the official forces, the secret forces in the world are not polite at all. The top leaders in the major states The forces in the Jianghu are all dominated by the seven factions behind them."

"The open and covert struggles in the rivers and lakes, the gang fights, there are also shadows of the struggle of the seven factions behind it."

"To put it bluntly, these gangs are the spokespersons of the Seven Sects in the mortal world."

Han Li was taken aback for a moment. He also knew that there were members of the Seven Sects supporting these gangs, but he really didn't think that deeply.

In his eyes, gang fights and murders are so commonplace that he has never thought about the deep-seated reasons behind these things.

"You mean that the Seven Great Factions are fighting secretly by manipulating the forces of the rivers and lakes?" Han Li's eyes widened in disbelief.

Immortal cultivators and mortals are two completely different groups in his eyes. Before today, Han Li almost never felt that there would be any deep intersection between these two groups.

"Of course, everyone wants to eat more and occupy more, but they can't tear their faces, so they manipulate these mortals to kill each other."

"Mortal blood flows like rivers, they are barbaric and ignorant. They are aloof and have nothing to do with the world." Lu Yunze sighed.

"It's been like this for so many years. Don't tell me, you know Jingzhou, right?"

Han Li's face darkened, and he nodded expressionlessly.

He was born in Jingzhou.

"That place is the poorest and most chaotic state capital in the entire Yue Kingdom. Gang forces are rampant, the government does nothing, and the people are miserable."

Lu Yunze picked up his teacup and took a sip, sticking out his tongue bitterly.

"The reason behind this is that Jingzhou is the only state capital that is not occupied by any of the seven factions, and it is also an arena where the seven factions fight openly and secretly."

Han Li looked normal, but he clenched his fists under the table.

"That place has been fought over by the Seven Factions for many years, and until today the spokespersons of the Seven Factions are still fighting there, and the government doesn't dare to take care of it. The result is that after so many years, Jingzhou, a place with good resources, has become The poorest land in the entire Vietnam."

"There are many gangs and bandits are rampant. It is common for people to sell their children and daughters when they are so poor. The peak of life for a child born there is not to become a member of the first prize, but to join a gang or bandit and fight with others. Can you believe it?"

Han Li picked up his teacup and drank it down without any expression on his face.

"Of course, Jingzhou is just a microcosm. The whole country of Yue, and even the whole of Tiannan are similar, but not as blatant as Jingzhou."

Lu Yunze pointed to Li's mansion outside the window, "A gang leader got rich by burning, killing and looting. The mansion occupies several times the area of ​​the county government, and even a state governor is his guest. This kind of thing It's probably commonplace for you."

Lu Yunze smiled wryly, "But to me, this world really sucks."

Han Li remained silent, without saying a word.

Lu Yunze couldn't help frowning, looked at him suspiciously and asked, "What's wrong with you? When I talked about this kind of topic before, you always looked like you didn't care. You wanted to leave quickly. Why are you so serious today?"

Han Li glanced at him with complicated eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "Why don't the seven sects touch the official forces?"

When Lu Yunze heard this question, he couldn't help laughing.

If Han Li had asked him this question a few months ago, he would not have been able to answer it, but now Lu Yunze has figured it out.

"Because they are afraid." Lu Yunze said with a smile.

Han Li was taken aback for a moment, a little confused.

"Afraid? Afraid of mortals?"

"Of course not, what they are afraid of is not ordinary people, but themselves."

Lu Yunze looked at the tea in his hand, he really didn't have the courage to drink any more, so he had no choice but to push the teacup aside.

"Let's put it this way, old Han, why did you join the Seven Sects and let them drive you?"

"Because of what?" Han Li was taken aback when he heard the words, "Of course it's because of the Foundation Establishment Pill and other resources."

Lu Yunze spread his hands, and continued: "Yes, because the seven factions monopolize the resources of the entire Yue Kingdom, if you want to go further on the road of cultivating immortals, you must join them and let them drive you."

"But Lao Han, the resources for cultivating immortals are limited. Limited resources can only achieve limited cultivators, and the vast majority of the remaining people have no further opportunities at all."

Lu Yunze's eyes were extremely deep, like the darkness suddenly appeared in the starry sky, wanting to swallow and crush everything.

"That's why these immortal cultivators used class and authority to build an extremely high ladder, and then told these people that you can't climb it because you are not hard enough or smart enough, not because the rules are unfair."

"This kind of nonsense can only deceive people for a while. Someone will always understand that there is no place for them on the steps that reach the sky from the beginning. They are just lying on the ground, cannon fodder for those with vested interests."

"In this case, what do you think they will do?"

Han Li looked into Lu Yunze's eyes, lowered his head and remained silent for a while.

"give up?"

'Snapped'!Lu Yunze snapped his fingers.

"Yeah, just give up. Now that you know that the road ahead is hopeless, just lie down and go to the mortal world to enjoy the glory and wealth."

"In this way, those who are most anxious become the vested interests of those big sects of cultivating immortals. The elixir in the medicine garden will not grow by itself, and the spirit stones in the mine veins cannot be harvested by themselves. Through talents, it can be turned into various instruments and magic weapons for them to drive."

"Once there are enough cultivators in the mortal world, the so-called sect of cultivating immortals will cease to exist in name only. So it must be banned!"

"Anyone who comes into contact with official forces, regardless of the reason or cause and effect, will be killed!"

"Only the fear of death can check this trend."

The sun outside the window was as warm as ever, but Han Li felt the biting cold.

After a long time, Han Li drank the cold tea in one gulp, raised his head and asked Lu Yunze seriously:
"I want to kill the master of the five-color gate, okay?"
