Inside The Black Mist Chapter 400: Focus (ask for counting votes on Monday)
Yunfu, listening to the rain Xiaoxie.
The two are playing chess.
"General."
A middle-aged man with a white face and a handsome appearance said with a faint smile: "Second brother, your chess moves are changeable, but you don't know that a wise man is too worried, and there is bound to be a mistake."
Yun Yuan, who was sitting across from him, sighed: "Brother's way of playing chess is wild and rough, using force to suppress the game. No matter how clever I am, I can't do it. I am convinced that I lost."
The one who played against Yun Yuan was none other than the head of the Yun family, Yun Hai!
Although Yunhai looks like only about forty people, in fact, he is already an old man in his early sixties. However, with his combat prowess, he was promoted to rank 7 early, but his physical appearance stayed at the prime stage.
However, as early as 20 years ago, Yun Hai lived in seclusion, and the family affairs were basically left to Yun Yuan to take care of.
Until the recent Fortress War, he didn't come out and walk around, but he only hid behind the scenes. Otherwise, if he directly participates in the war, I'm afraid that the military achievements of other families will be greatly reduced.
"I'm a reckless man, I've been like this since I was young, so I said early in the morning that the position of the head of the family is still the second child, but you just don't listen. Otherwise, I'm free now. "Yunhai fiddled with the chess pieces, returned to their original positions, and reorganized the chess game.
Yun Yuan laughed and said: "Brother, those so-called young talents in the five schools back then were inexhaustible geniuses. Who would not be afraid of being beaten by you, and the second Gao made you cast a shadow even more. Then these people will definitely not accept it."
"The truth is, after you took over the position of Patriarch, in the past thirty years, no one dared to say a word about our Yun family. Even the Jingtao Duan family, if you let it out, they obediently agreed to divorce. If it were me, it would never be so refreshing."
Yunhai looked far-sighted, and looked at his brother: "I'll just be a hand-off shopkeeper, handling family affairs, which one is not the second child, you do it yourself. Speaking of which, I owe you too much for my brother these years."
Yun Yuan shook his head: "There is nothing owed or not owed to my family. You have to feel embarrassed, otherwise, let me play a round?"
The corners of Yunhai's mouth raised: "One matter is one matter, if you want me to give up, absolutely not."
The two brothers looked at each other and smiled.
Yunhai picked up a piece and dropped it casually: "The Bai family performed well in this war. I heard that they held a banquet to celebrate their success?"
Yun Yuan nodded: "It's true, and Bai Lao San asked his daughter to invite that child to attend."
"Oh?"
Yunhai laughed: "Bai Laosan took great pains for their family. Bai Lijie is really an idiot. He played a good hand of cards like he is now. If there is no Bai Shengjie in the Bai family, there will be another Bai Lijie in the younger generation." Promise. Otherwise, how long their incense can last is hard to say."
Yun Yuan smiled: "Shengjie is honest, he apologized to me just a few days ago for planning about that child."
Yunhai's eyes turned cold: "If he dares to pretend to be confused, I will dare to go to Bai's house and beat him. The news he got from you is good. He quickly pushed his daughter out, trying to get rid of us before we did. That kid took it down. He should apologize, he has a bit of vision."
Yun Yuan ate his elder brother's son, and said: "So when he heard that we canceled the engagement of Jingtao Duan, he was very anxious. If I guessed right, he probably wanted to announce it publicly tonight , and promised his daughter Bai Yinglan to that child."
Yunhai smiled: "Second brother, since you guessed it, you must have arranged it?"
Yun Yuan shook his head.
Yunhai was stunned: "What, you didn't arrange it? In that case, what will our little Skylark do?"
Yun Yuan laughed and said, "Brother, although I didn't arrange anything, I went to Gao's house."
Yunhai asked suspiciously: "Why are you running to the Gao family? Their Gao family is now swollen and fat. The second and third generations are mud that can't support the wall. Wait until Gao Ye and Gao Li throw their hands away." , his Gao family is almost over."
Yun Yuan nodded lightly and said: "Because of this, the Gao family needs to rely on external forces to continue the incense, and drag it to the fourth generation to see if there are outstanding figures born."
"I just said a few words to Gao Ye, telling him that the Bai family has a daughter who will be in her boudoir. As for what Gao Ye will think, I don't care."
Yun Hai clapped his palms and said with a smile: "Well, you second child, what else can Gao Ye think, he must go to the Gao family to propose a marriage. After being disturbed by the Gao family, Bai Shengjie, in order not to offend the Gao family, even if he was unwilling to do so in his heart, You can't promise your daughter out in front of everyone."
Yun Yuan smiled, and said again: "General."
Yunhai suddenly coughed.
"You, you, you, you are clearly distracting me with words, this round doesn't count!"
Yun Yuan laughed and said: "Brother, you will never regret a game, but you taught me."
Footsteps suddenly sounded.
A frost cloud guard came outside the pavilion.
"What's the matter?" Yun Yuan asked indifferently.
The guard saluted, and said in a deep voice: "Second Master, I just got the news from the Bai Mansion. The Gao family had a conflict with Lieutenant Tianyang, and they had a showdown in the Bai family Yanwu Hall. As a result, the guards of the Gao family were defeated by Lieutenant Tianyang. One hit defeats."
Yun Yuan's eyes lit up: "Good boy."
The guard said again: "Also, in the Martial Arts Hall, Lieutenant Tianyang activated a special physique. However, the specific name and information are not yet known."
"What!"
"Special constitution?"
This time, even Yunhai was moved. Out of control, the chess piece in his hand was crushed into powder.
After taking a few breaths, Yun Yuan waved his hand: "Go down first."
The guard resigns.
In the pavilion, the two brothers exchanged glances, and then Yunhai exhaled softly: "This is really surprising, he has awakened a special physique, this child really has a bright future."
Yun Yuan smiled wryly: "I didn't count on that, it's a bit of a surprise now. Since Shengjie knows that Tianyang has awakened a special physique, he might risk offending the Gao family and hurry up, Match up the marriage between my daughter and that child."
Yunhai stood up and looked out of the pavilion with his hands behind his back: "Above the fortress, people who have awakened variant bodies can be counted on ten fingers. The variant variants are rare, just take the leaders of the military department as an example. Among them, the adopted daughter of our city lord has awakened a special physique."
"The variant plus the new class, the child you mentioned will sooner or later become the focus of the fortress. It's not surprising that it even becomes the focus of the Eastern Land."
Yun Yuan also stood up: "Brother is right, it seems that I have to speed up my pace, and don't let that child be cheated away."
"You're a liar, you use it quite brilliantly." Yunhai smiled lightly, and then his face became serious: "You put a word out for me, just say that I, Yunhai, have taken a fancy to this child, and I want to make a promise to Yunque." Give it to him. I want to see who dares to rob someone from our Yun family!"
Yun Yuan was overjoyed: "With the words of the elder brother, then the matter will be settled. Elder brother, then I will not play chess with you, so I will leave first."
"Go."
So among the pavilions and pavilions, only Yunhai was left. Yunhai looked at the chessboard, and there was chaos on the chessboard.
Bai family, Yanwu hall.
"This round, we lost."
Gao Li's voice rang out, breaking the silence in the martial arts hall.
Including Bai Shengjie, everyone in the hall looked at the white-haired old man in surprise. Anyone who knows Gao Li knows that this tall old man seldom utters such weak words. The disastrous defeat of the family guards made Gao Li angry, which was in line with his style.
"Xiao Yue, apologize to others."
Following Gao Li's words, it was like dropping a heavy bomb. Everyone who heard it thought that Gao Li was crazy.
Gao Yue looked unbelievable, thinking he heard it wrong: "Second Grandpa, what did you just say?"
Gao Li said coldly: "I won't say the same thing again."
"But..."
"There is nothing to be proud of! Since you lost, you have to admit it!"
Gao Li said in a deep voice: "Are you going to give the Gao family a reputation of 'untrustworthy' in front of so many people?"
Gao Yue couldn't bear the pressure of such a big hat. Immediately clenched his fists, stood up, and shouted to Tianyang on the field: "It is true that our Gao family lost in this competition. According to the previous agreement, I only apologize to you on behalf of the Gao family."
Tianyang nodded.
Just accept it when you see it.
Since the Gao family has apologized, this matter is over.
Gao Li got up, and said to Bai Shengjie: "I'm bothering you tonight, Gao will leave now, and I'll come to make amends tomorrow."
The old man made a gesture, someone picked up the unconscious Lu Zhi, and then the Gao family and others walked away quickly.
Leaving Bai's house, the car was driving on the road in Shangcheng District. In the car, Gao Yue said indignantly: "Second Grandpa, that Tianyang made us lose face tonight. We won't do this matter. Let's forget it?"
Gao Li was surprisingly calm, glanced at him, and sighed softly: "Xiao Yue, you have to grow up quickly. Your uncle and I are already old, if we can't be promoted to rank 7 within ten years. In a few years, we will have to step down from this position.”
"At that time, the Gao family will rely on you."
Gao Yue was taken aback, not understanding why Gao Li suddenly mentioned this matter.
"That young man named Tianyang, instead of wanting revenge, you must try to make friends. Even after I go back, I have to show my elder brother to see if there is a girl of the right age who can marry that child."
What the old man said made Gao Yue almost jump up.
"Second Grandpa, are you serious?"
"Do I sound like a joke?"
Gao Li snorted: "Didn't you see that that kid named Tian Yang just used a special physique in the Martial Arts Hall. How many people in our fortress do you think have variant bodies? Our Gao family is currently out of stock." , and lack the absolute force that can hold the scene."
"I'm still here now, and I can barely do it. But in case I'm not here one day, how can you support your family?"
Gao Yue murmured: "Second Grandpa, you live a long life, why do you say such unlucky words."
Gao Li hehe said: "Longevity? If you don't reach rank 7 in one day, it will be difficult to break through the life span. Even if we can try to prolong life, we can't stop the aging of the body and the aging of cells."
"So, if we can recruit a strong man with a variant body. At least, after our generation retires, we can still support it for a while."
"Otherwise, once we retire, within twenty years, our family's foundation will be divided up. If you can't even see this clearly, then Xiao Yue, I advise you to just be a young master with peace of mind. Just don't look at the position of the Patriarch."
