He looked at the family heads sitting there. This generation's subordinates were too difficult to manage. Why did the previous generations live well? Is there something wrong with his generation? Is it because people's hearts are broken?
His eyes swept over the faces of those people one by one. Everywhere he went, everyone lowered their eyelids and did not dare to look at him, because they were afraid of being spotted by him, which would be troublesome.
They really didn't know what to do. Over the years, the common people had also had resentments and wanted to have an explanation, but in the end their arms couldn't twist their thighs and they had to endure it.
After a long time, the people at the top of the federation simply ignored the life and death of the common people. Instead, they felt that without the leadership of their ancestors, how could these common people survive?
But they all forgot one thing. Even if their ancestors were the leading warriors, it does not mean that the establishment of the Federation was without the contribution of ordinary people.
The establishment of the Federation was the result of the efforts of all mankind, not just the leaders, but also the efforts of thousands of unknown martyrs and ordinary people.
If the federation is a large running machine, then every ordinary person is an ordinary part. Can a machine run without the support of parts?
It is a pity that the people at the top of the federation have always had a very high self-esteem and do not reflect on it like this. Instead, they try their best to fool ordinary people, think about how to squeeze ordinary people, and build the happiness of a few people on the suffering of the majority.
.
It wasn't until Ling Xiao's arrival that the deadlock in the federation was finally broken, which was equivalent to giving the federation's top brass a few slaps in the face and letting them sit together for the first time to discuss what to do.
And because of Patriarch Ye's outburst, the house they were in was quiet, and some people wished they could stop breathing to avoid attracting Patriarch Ye's attention and getting scolded.
"You still know nothing about those wood-type superpowers?" the head of the Ye family said. He looked around at everyone as he spoke, making those people shrink their heads and not dare to confront the head of the Ye family.
The heads elected by the major families in the federation are all kind of thick-skinned. After all, under the comparison of Patriarch Ye for many years, they would not dare to come here if they were not shameless, because Patriarch Ye is too powerful, so
The other family heads were overshadowed.
As the top leaders of the federation, they are the kind who can reincarnate. Their family is so powerful that as long as the children in the family are not wood-type superpowers, even if they are crooked melons and jujubes, they will have a bright future.
If they were unfortunate enough to become wood-type superpowers, they would be much better than wood-type superpowers from ordinary families. And they wanted to continue this good life.
Then they have a plan, so they are unwilling to take responsibility when dealing with things. After all, if they don't do it well, it will cause big trouble and may bring the whole family down. They would rather not do it than do it wrong.
This is also an important reason why the Federation is so slow in doing things. Everyone likes to play football and does not want to take responsibility. Even their children and grandchildren are like this. They always want to live a good life without taking responsibility.
When Ling Xiao first appeared, no one wanted to pursue him. After all, he might be held responsible. In this case, they would rather forget about the matter.
It was only now that they discovered that the wood-type superpowers they had ignored suddenly became much stronger and might threaten their safety, so they became a little panicked.
Patriarch Ye wanted to yell, but it felt good when he was the one who said it before. No one dared to raise any objections, which showed his authority.
But now I find that those people are just a bunch of yes-men. They don’t have any good suggestions. They just keep their heads down and dare not speak, and they dare not raise any opinions. What’s the point?
The head of the Ye family became so angry when he saw this group of pigs. What was going on? None of them could look at each other, and even the people who were complimenting him didn't understand the reason for his question.
If you know whose descendant the wood-type superpower is, you can find her family. In this way, you can take control of the other party, and the federation will be in an invincible position.
But now I can't find the relevant person. In fact, someone has asked before, and then I know that no one said that they have met the person, so naturally they don't know what the other person looks like.
Even that time when she appeared in the sight of the tracking team, she would wear a half-mask when she appeared. Naturally, it was impossible to know what the other party looked like. How could she find her family? Therefore, everyone else shook their heads and said they didn't know.
.
When Patriarch Ye saw this, if he hadn't been older and more restrained, he would have slapped the table and smashed the bench. His face suddenly darkened because he was so angry. How could this happen?
He looked at the head of the Duanmu family who was also sitting there with his head lowered, "Master Duanmu, the Federation has been letting the Duanmu family be responsible for intelligence over the years. If we can't find out, we should let him go as soon as possible!"
Having said this, he glanced at the Duanmu family head, his eyes were very sharp, which made the Duanmu family head tremble when he raised his head. As an earth power user, he actually has a poor power level, but who can reincarnate and live very well.
But now he had no confidence at all when facing Patriarch Ye. His lips were trembling, and he wanted to ask Patriarch Ye not to give him this order, but he was speechless when he met the other person's eyes.
He couldn't help but look at the other people in the room, but none of them made eye contact with him, because naturally they didn't want to get into trouble, but they also felt a little gloating about his misfortune.
Over the years, various big families have controlled the top level of the federation. Even if there are a few rare people who have climbed up with their own abilities, they are still below the big families.
It is also called a small family. If a small family wants to rise to power, it must unseat the big family above it. This depends on the timing. It may succeed or it may not.
But even people in such a small family are always looking for opportunities, because only by climbing higher will they look less at other people's butts and will not be stepped on by more people.
Even if people from big families do evil things, they will be fine, because the power of the family can protect them. In this case, who doesn't want to go further? With so many role models, people from small families want to be promoted to big families.
.
Because the resources that each family can obtain are limited, and the resources that big families get are much higher than those of small families, they want to replace the existence of big families.
The Duanmu family was once very prosperous in the early years, but then it gradually weakened. Although intelligence is very important, because the major families in the federation have only one hand to cover the sky, intelligence does not have much effect.
This is also the reason why everyone puts the Duanmu family in charge of this aspect. There are not many capable people in the Duanmu family, they are just reincarnations.
The head of the Duanmu family blushed all of a sudden and felt uneasy. He knew his shortcomings very well in his heart, but now he couldn't do it even if someone pointed it in his face, and he couldn't say anything. He felt a little aggrieved, how could he be like this?
?
It's not the first time I know that the intelligence department is not good. In fact, in the federation, the intelligence department is a nursing home, where the dandies and useless people from various families are thrown.
Speaking of which, there are quite a few members of the family here who are in the intelligence department, and they are the kind of people who just sit there and do nothing. There are no positions left for capable people at all, and they are all occupied.
As a member of the Duanmu family, he couldn't control those people at all. In addition, he also knew that it was really difficult to check for that wood-type superpower. He didn't have a name, didn't know what he looked like, and didn't know anything. How could he check?
He wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth and faced the dark face of Patriarch Ye, and couldn't say anything at all, because he really didn't dare to face him.
In the end, the head of the Duanmu family did not dare to say anything. He naturally did not want the family to be kicked out of the top leadership of the federation. After much deliberation, he could only go back and ask his elders what to do.
Seeing him like this, the others didn't say a word, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Duanmu family supported him, and they escaped.
In the end, Patriarch Ye left with a dark face, and everyone else also left in a hurry, all in small groups, except for the fact that no one called Patriarch Duanmu, and Patriarch Duanmu hurried home.
After he entered the gate, he happened to meet his eldest son Duanmu Yi who had returned from an outing. He saw that his eldest son was full of joy, which surprised the Duanmu family head.
?What is going on? The head of the Duanmu family looked away after one look. He had no intention of asking about why the eldest son was happy. He was just a white-eyed wolf anyway.
Duanmu Yi also recognized him and called out, "Father." It was impossible to ask for more greetings. Neither father nor son planned to have more conversations because they had no feelings.
Speaking of which, the eldest son is an outlier of the Duanmu family, and the Duanmu family head and his wife are in a marriage relationship. Because the Duanmu family head has no ability and the prospective wife does not like him, he has to become each other's marriage partner.
It's strange that a couple in this situation can have feelings for each other. They both look down on each other. The couple has a tragic start from the beginning of their marriage, and they become even more inseparable later in life.
Although the head of the Duanmu family is not a very good person, he can still be regarded as a descendant of a big family, and many people like him. Under such circumstances, neither of them likes each other very much after meeting.
Later, because of the marriage, I had to bow my head. The husband felt that after his wife had a baby son, he felt that he had fulfilled his responsibility as a husband and was worthy of his wife.
So he started looking for women. Although his wife didn't like the head of the Duanmu family at all, other beauties with no background liked her very much, and he quickly found a second wife.
Although according to the rules in the city, monogamy is generally the rule, as a big family, men usually have several women around them, and they are usually arranged in different places, so there is no dispute.
The wife later found out that she was extremely angry, because this kind of playboy behavior made her most angry, and other women also had children, which led to premature birth and eventually died after the birth of their eldest son.
After the eldest son grew up and learned about the relevant situation, he didn't like his father very much. There was more estrangement between father and son who had not had much affection in the first place, and they disliked each other.
Naturally, the father did not like this unruly eldest son, so even if the two met at the gate, they had no intention of talking and separated after entering the gate.
Duanmu Yi naturally didn't care about him at all, but today he turned around and looked at that figure. He could tell that something was wrong with this old guy. He seemed to have grown older all of a sudden. What was going on?
Speaking of which, this person should be the person closest to him, but he had already married another beautiful woman, and Duanmu Yi's biological mother had not left any trace in this family at all.
When he grew up, he no longer had much affection for his father. The reason why he never had a falling out was that he took advantage of related matters for one person, because he knew that he was only one person and could not protect Ahe.
After knowing the latest news, he felt that there was no need to delay any longer. He wanted to leave as soon as possible to avoid having a fight with the old man when he felt impatient, or causing problems for himself.
Thinking of this, he hurried to the most remote yard and saw a little baby sitting on the ground, looking at the seedlings growing in a flower pot.
This is one of the most common plants and is the least dangerous plant in the world. Basically, no mutation has been successful. It is also the plant that people keep the most.
Of course, in order to prevent danger, they will usually be eaten when they grow older, but when they are young, they are still very weak and have no mutations, and they will still let Ah He play with them.
"Ah He!" Duanmu Yi shouted. Ah He turned around when he heard the voice. When he saw who it was, his face lit up. It was his uncle who was back.
He has been staying here all this time, with no one to accompany him. Before his uncle left, he said he would not be allowed to go out. He obeyed obediently and waited for his uncle to come back.
In order to raise Ahe, his uncle had to take on tasks outside. It would take some time for him to see his uncle. Now he was very happy after seeing him. His little face was full of joy, "Uncle!"
Ah He got up and rushed towards his uncle. His little face was bright and his depression was gone. He kept talking to little Miaomiao, but little Miaomiao couldn't speak.
You must know that he only has his uncle to accompany him, and his uncle goes out from time to time, so he basically has no one to play with, and no one else in the family can get along.
He once thought about being with other people, but he almost got killed. After that time, he stopped going out to find any friends to prevent himself from being plotted by others again.
But he still hopes to have someone with him. Living alone is really meaningless. Although he has a little Miaomiao, he can't speak.
Ah He was extremely happy after seeing his uncle. After the original silence, his whole body finally showed the liveliness that a child should have. He opened his arms and came towards Duanmu Yi.
Duanmu Yi smiled slightly, half bent down, and reached out to catch the child. This small courtyard was his exclusive accommodation in the family, and ordinary people could not enter at all.
