Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 29 Apology
The old man's temples were gray and his face was covered with wrinkles as rough as tree bark, giving him a weathered look.

Wearing a simple long silk coat, he walked in step by step with a hunched body. He looked around at the mess around him, his eyes becoming more severe.

Seeing the man rolling on the ground with unstoppable bleeding, the old man quickly passed over the crowd, raised his hand and pinched a magic spell to stop the man's bleeding.

He turned back and stared at Wu Cheng, not angry but proud:
"Wucheng, you went too far this time."

The tone was full of accountability, and the arrogance in Wu Cheng's expression had disappeared. He quickly bent down and saluted:
"I've met City Lord Liu, what happened today..."

"That's enough! Let your master explain it to me." City Lord Liu interrupted Wu Cheng mercilessly. He then turned to look at You Su, who had cold eyes. After looking at him for a while, he asked with concern, "Is there any Injury?"

You Su could feel that City Lord Liu was asking him. He and City Lord Liu had not had any interaction since his master left. At this time, he couldn't help but feel a little flattered and said: "I have met the City Lord, there is no serious problem."

Wu Cheng still lowered his head and clenched his teeth. No one could see the veins popping up under the shadow of his face.

"It's okay. They came up with this strategy because of their desire for people. I hope you can understand." City Lord Liu then relieved the pressure, and everyone was relieved.

"I can understand." You Su also replied kindly with the frost on his face melting away.

The ice on his face melted away, but the grudge in his heart was hard to get rid of. Su had already firmly remembered this account in his heart.

Faced with City Lord Liu's attempts to mediate, You Su could only comply superficially. Rather than being disgusted by his good-natured approach, You Su was more grateful to him for stopping the fight in time. He just wanted to give his junior sister and junior wife a trouble-free environment. .

City Lord Liu stroked his beard with joy, then turned to help Wu Cheng, who was still bending down to salute. His tone at this time also softened slightly:

"Wu Cheng, I know you value your fellow disciples, but you shouldn't lose your sense of proportion like this. We are all monks, not barbarians who come to raid our homes. Your master values ​​you so much, and you have to respond to his expectations."

Wu Cheng glanced at the clumsy face of City Master Liu, Laozhi Hengqiu, then bowed his head and saluted and said in a deep voice: "Thank you City Master for reminding me, Wu Cheng knows that he was wrong. Think twice before doing anything in the future, and you will not be swayed by emotions again."

City Lord Liu raised the corner of his mouth, helped Wu Cheng up again and patted his shoulder:

"You are a good boy who attaches great importance to love and justice. This time, you can be forgiven. I will apologize to Yusu and let this matter pass. You are all of the same generation and are the future of Izumo City. , we can deal with him more in the future.”

Before Wu Cheng could respond, Wu Ping shouted angrily: "You want us to apologize to him? City Lord Liu, look at how he has cut our people down. What else does he want to apologize for?"

Upon hearing this, City Lord Liu glanced sideways at Wu Ping, who was leaning against the wall, then turned back to observe the injury of the man with the severed hand, and said softly to Wu Cheng:

"Return to the sect quickly, we can still catch up."

In an instant, a flash of sword light flashed, and the fat man's trembling palms lying on the ground suddenly shattered into several pieces and turned into a pile of rotten flesh.

Everyone's expressions became extremely ugly, even City Lord Liu frowned. Only You Su had an indifferent look on his face, and the Mo Song Sword in his hand was dripping with bright red blood.

"There's no need to apologize. This is the apology I want." You Su's empty eyes were full of indifference, and his handsome face looked calm.

The fat man was so frightened that he sat down on the ground and cried heartbrokenly. He was just following Wu Ping's order to humiliate this blind man whom he had never seen before. After the deed was completed, he would get a lot of elixirs. How could he know that he had provoked a fierce god that he could not afford to offend. "You!" When Wu Cheng saw this, his face twisted with anger, and he tried to pull out the sheathed sword.

He felt that every sword You Su had just swung was like a slap in the face, hitting him hard in the face. Of course he wouldn't care about the injury of an unknown subordinate, but You Su's move was a complete naked humiliation to him.

City Lord Liu used his big hand to block the two people who were at war with each other. He gently pressed back Wu Cheng's hand that was about to draw the sword, and said with a faint smile on his lips:

"Okay, now that You Su has accepted the apology, this matter is over. You all should disperse and take him to heal as soon as possible."

Even Wu Cheng, who desperately wanted to maintain a good image in front of this prestigious old city lord, was unwilling to sell himself to the old man at this time. There was uncontrollable anger in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"City Master Liu, Yousu has repeatedly defied searches and just admitted that he met my Uncle He on the 12th. I suspect that he is closely related to the disappearance of Uncle He!"

Wu Ping on the side also raised his arms and said: "That's right! His family must be searched!"

A little sadness appeared on City Lord Liu's withered face. He reached out and touched Wu Cheng's back, as if to soothe Wu Cheng's emotions. He said slowly:
"I know you are eager to find your uncle, but your uncle He's body has just been found. It is five miles away on Qiong Mountain. Unfortunately, there is only a pale skeleton left. Your master has gone, so you should go and see it." Look."

You Su hid behind his back without changing his expression, but there was a thump in his heart.

Master Uncle He's body was found, will the cause of his death also be investigated? Will the cause and effect behind the cannibalism involve him? You Su suppressed his anxiety and thought calmly: Master Ling's arrival was unexpected, and his interaction with him was hidden in the dark. It is extremely difficult to find out Ling Zhenren, so the probability of him being taken out is probably low.

When Wu Cheng heard this, the expression on his face changed. He loosened his grip on the hilt of the sword and turned into the young genius who knew etiquette again. He saluted again and said: "Thank you City Lord for telling us, then I will I'll take my leave now and come back to say thank you another day."

City Lord Liu said with a kind face, "Go, my condolences."

Wu Cheng left without looking back. Wu Ping followed closely in his brother's footsteps, followed by the outer disciples who were supporting each other.

A group of people left in a grand manner, and the crowded old house finally became empty again.

City Lord Liu did not leave, and You Su couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

He didn't know the purpose of City Lord Liu's sudden show of goodwill. He only knew that this old man was probably the most powerful monk in the city. If the old man stayed here for a second longer, the risk of his junior sister and junior wife being exposed would increase.

Unaware of the storm in You Su's heart, City Lord Liu walked up to the rotten flesh and chanted the incantation with his fingers, when a ball of green fire suddenly appeared from the ground and burned the rotten hands into a ball of white ash. He used another spell to create lines of water to wash away all the splattered blood.

You Su felt everything he did and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"You have to clean up the other things yourself." City Lord Liu shook his sleeves, walked up to You Su, and sighed helplessly, "I have always been confused, how could someone as domineering as your master accept someone like you?" A silent disciple?"

"I just realized that you are actually the same kind of people deep down."
