Chapter 85

It has been half a month since Mo Mudan and the others returned to Base M. These days they searched every possible place where the car fell. Unfortunately, they only found the ruins of the car, but they never found Hou He and Han Han. What reassured Mo Mudan was that the system did not remind them of their disappearance.

The few people who had just entered the city gate clearly noticed the abnormal atmosphere in the city. How can I put it this way, the first time I came here, it felt very deserted. There were scattered crowds everywhere, staring at the people entering the gate with their hungry eyes. , especially those who are alone, with strict intentions.

This kind of atmosphere can be felt when Mo Mudan and Xiyang were at the M base, so urgent and clear.

Today is completely different, people's eyes are more or less relaxed, and even the children who used to avoid the city gate the most cheered and gathered together.

"It seems that something important has happened." Xi Yang looked at the somewhat empty city gate, thinking.

"Wait, what happened?" Mo Mudan resolutely stopped a middle-aged man in tatters from rushing forward, and asked.

The man glanced at Mo Mudan and the others impatiently, curled his lips, and prepared to continue walking.

Xi Yang took out a generation of instant noodles from his bag, raised his hand to the man, and then motioned.

The man's attitude changed significantly this time, and he said flatteringly, "What do you want to know, I will tell you everything I know." As he spoke, he wanted to reach out to grab the instant noodles in Xiyang's hand, but was dodged by Xiyang , looking at the man lightly, the man who saw it shrank in his heart.

"Answer well, where are the people at the base, and what happy event happened? We are satisfied with your answer, and this is naturally yours."

"Yes, yes, of course, you are asking the right person. Today is a big day for our M base. According to the gossip, today the city owner will announce that the successor is the young master, and the young master will be the latest alien from the base. Xiantong, the daughter of the leader of the Alliance of Capable Persons, is engaged." The middle-aged man said with envy in his eyes.

"Young master? Your young master is back?" Mo Mudan asked in surprise, did Hou He and the others come back early?But doesn't the system say that as long as they are in one place, they will notify themselves?
"Who do you think the young master is?" Xi Yang sensitively felt that the young master in the man's mouth was not Hou He.

"It's Young Master Li Mu." The man said as it should.

"Li Mu is not the adopted son of the city lord, and your young lord is not Hou He?" Mo Mudan also discovered the doubts. What happened during the 15 days they were away? How could Li Mu replace Hou He?
"What you said was all in the past. Ten days ago, young master Li Mu brought back a large amount of food, and the news of the death of that idiot Hou He, the city master was hit hard, and everyone in our M base ate it for ten days. Su, fortunately, the city lord held a big banquet today, and it is said that it is to announce the identity of the young master Li Mu?" The man said seriously.

"Oh, according to what you said, it's just a guess. I'm sorry, but we can't give you instant noodles." Mo Mudan saw the man's eyes rolling around, and knew that this guy had something to say.

"Hey, don't, my news is absolutely true. My cousin works as a servant in the city lord's mansion. I heard from her that the young master Li Mu brought back a lot of food. What we eat these days is what the young master brought back. The young master also promised to make us full in the future, and even the alliance of supernatural beings supports the young master." The man said anxiously, no amount of free things is too much.

"You said, the leader of the supernatural person alliance has a daughter named Xiantong? Have you ever met the leader of the supernatural person alliance? When did the organization appear, and why didn't you find it before?" Mo Mudan continued to ask, "Xian Tong The last name made her a little suspicious.

"Yeah, let me tell you, this organization is really amazing. It was a month ago when the senior superpowers of the base were on a mission, they suddenly rose. The salary is super high, and having a family member in the alliance of supernatural beings is the most proud thing of the base. Although we have never seen the leader of Xian, it is said that his supernatural powers are very magical. Many masters who returned to the base were defeated by He, that's really a man who can rule the roost by himself." The man said while sneaking a look at the expressions of Mo Mudan and the two, seeing that they were both lost in thought, he quickly went up, grabbed the instant noodles and ran away.

Mo Mudan and Xi Yang didn't catch up, but just quietly looked at the direction the man was running.

"Sister Peony, are we going to the City Lord's Mansion?" Upon hearing that there was something lively to watch, a certain child was unwilling to be lonely.

"It seems that we need to go and have a look." Mo Mudan tilted her head and smiled at Xiyang, as if someone had arranged the overall situation for them to go and watch.

"Yes." Xi Yang nodded, and the four of them walked towards the City Lord's Mansion.

When we arrived, there were already crowds of people, and we couldn't see the strict and orderly scene before. It seemed that we really had fun with the people. On the ten-mile long street outside the gate, all kinds of hot soup, rice, and steamed buns were placed one after another. Stewed dishes, in the last days, can indeed be called a big deal.

Mo Mudan became more and more puzzled. Hou He's father, Hou Tian, ​​did not want to be someone who could be deceived so easily, whether it was in the novel or in personal experience.

It is very easy to enter the outer area, but it is rare to enter the inner area. Xi Yang quickly ransacked the invitation cards of several people, and then the four of them swaggered in with noble and glamorous postures.

The layout inside is even more luxurious and extravagant. The city lord's mansion originally chose the sky garden real estate in the center of the most luxurious wealthy businessmen's villa area in M ​​city. Although there are no plants and green shades on the whole, the European-style architectural facilities are still well preserved.

The first thing you see when you enter the door is the majestic man above the center stage, the gentle Li Mu, and the girl in a pink tutu skirt in Li Mu's hands.

"Hello, welcome to the City Lord's Mansion, what would you like to drink?" The waiter surrounded him enthusiastically, and greeted Mo Mudan and the others to pick up a meal.

It happened that Mo Mudan and the others were quite hungry after traveling for a few days, so they found a corner and watched the wonderful speech on the stage while eating.

"Welcome all the elites of Base M to the City Lord's Mansion. Base M is getting better and better in the hands of all of us. I am very proud of this. Similarly, I must also praise my son. He brought back this time. Food, let us all feel at ease this New Year's Eve, I am proud of my son." Hou Tian is not old, in fact he looks young, of course this is inseparable from his baby face, but he After all, it's been a long time, and the aura of speaking, as well as the eyes, are full of power.

Mo Mudan searched back and forth in the arena while listening, she could clearly feel the familiar fluctuations in powers on Hou Tian's body, which made her understand why Li Mu could become the young master, and also made her more vigilant, delicate and gentle. , this woman, now it seems that the picture is not small.

"Next, I would like to invite my son Li Mu to say a few words for everyone." Hou Tian happily gave his seat to his son and let him speak.

"Seniors, hello everyone. As a junior, I am able to achieve today's achievements. I am very grateful to my father, leader Xian, and everyone for your cultivation. Let me offer you a toast first." After speaking, he picked up the liquid in his hand and dried it Jin, "I am very honored to be recognized by my father and everyone today, and to enter the management of our M base. Here I can assure everyone that I will lead our M base to become stronger and stronger in the future." He said with a confident smile, Graceful bearing.

"Okay." The guests clapped their hands in agreement, and the atmosphere was very harmonious for a while.

"Mr. Li Mu, I am a reporter from M Daily. We admire Mr. Li Mu's achievements very much. Here are a few questions I would like to ask Mr. Li Mu." The first to break the atmosphere was a very young man with a Slender, fair-faced, with eyes framed in gold, he looked like a refined scholar.

After seeing the man's appearance, Li Mu frowned. For today's perfect curtain call, he had already greeted all the units last night. Where did this man come from? He is an enemy, not a friend.

"Excuse me, I'm the most democratic person, and I welcome everyone's questions." Even though he was puzzled in his heart, his face made people calm and composed.

"The young master of Base M went out with you, Li Mu, and then you brought back the news that he was dead, am I right?" The man said, his eyes reflected a sharp light, and shot straight at Li Mu.

"Indeed." Li Mu nodded in agreement with his smile unchanged, "Regarding this, all the people at M base spent ten days commemorating my brother. My father and I are very grateful to everyone, but please understand Our mood, the dead are gone." Li Mu said with a trace of melancholy and sadness.

"However, Mr. Li Mu, Hou He is still alive, how can you explain this?" The man said with a smile drawn on the corner of his mouth, forming a nasty arc.

"What?" After losing his composure for a moment, Li Mu quickly came to his senses, glancing at the unresponsive Hou Tian who was on the side, Li Mu settled down, and looked at the man sternly, "As far as I know, today's We invited all the elites in the base, this gentleman looks very unfamiliar, I have to doubt your identity and purpose." He said and gave the guard at the door a wink.

"Why, you can't hold back your anger so soon, Mr. Li Mu, are you really the most guilty?" The man said with a brighter smile.

"The truth is, I don't have any sympathy to stay here with you. The real truth is known to everyone and no slander is tolerated." Li Mu said with a serious face and a whole body of righteousness.

"Pu Chi, it's ridiculous, do you still have compassion? You should have nothing left, you can only be a humble person who plots and schemes." The man looked at Li Mu viciously after speaking.

Li Mu's eyes widened in shock, "It's you, you're back?" A trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

"Yes, I'm back." The man said as he tore off the white stuff on his face, revealing his original face.
