Chapter 283: Helping the world with a clear conscience
"Let's get down to business. I think we'll have time to talk about the rest later." Without any unnecessary pleasantries, Sun Huo got straight to the point and asked what his purpose was.
Hearing this, Li Yan couldn't help but look a little bitter on his face, but he still didn't dare to respond carelessly: "Thanks to the compassion of all the immortal masters, I risked my life to save this city. Although the drought has been alleviated now, but
There is nothing left for people to eat in Greenstone City, but in the past two days there are still people..."
"I understand, please stop talking." Sun Huo suddenly interrupted. He could think of what Li Yan was going to say next, but he just couldn't bear to hear it anymore. Because when he first arrived, he entered the city from the air, and there were so many people all the way.
I have briefly seen those tragic scenes.
Speaking of which, the reason why he is staying in the Li Mansion now is because of Sun Huo's insistence, and the scar-faced man reluctantly agreed. Not to mention that this is a city where mortals gather, and the spiritual energy is almost non-existent.
It is not suitable for those who are cultivators of immortality. Not to mention it is a place of death due to great disasters with deep odor. Ordinary people can't even avoid it, and only evil cultivators of ghosts will be interested. Especially now, the top priority is to heal and recover. If you can have enough spiritual energy,
For example, if the supply is returned to the sect, it can be restored faster and save a lot of time.
But after settling in the residence, the scar-faced man stayed here without any hesitation and watched over Sun Huo. Considering his unknown identity in the dark clouds and Mu Xin's previous respectful attitude, Sun Huo was not in a position to evict the guest.
, but the two never spoke to each other again, as if they regarded each other as nothing, and each did his own thing.
For two days, Sun Huo has been immersed in trying to heal his injuries using the methods he knows, completely staying at home and paying no attention to changes in the situation outside.
In the final analysis, it is not only because the wounds left by Honglian after this battle are strange and inexplicable. Although they are not fatal, they are extremely painful at the slightest movement. They have tried five or six healing methods in a row but there is no improvement at all.
There was no sign of healing, and it was because he suddenly experienced so many major changes in less than a month. Sun Huo really couldn't bear such a blow, and he began to avoid facing reality in his confusion.
If Li Yan hadn't come to ask for help at this moment and broke this state of self-isolation, he didn't know how long he would have been in isolation.
When he thought of the moment when Si Ye sacrificed himself and turned into a ball of light, and finally looked at him with deep love, Sun Huo's heart was violently torn open again by a pair of invisible hands. The pain of knowing after being loved.
, God didn’t even give me a chance to accept or reject the response. Nothing can make up for the regret of missing out, but some things must be done, like really protecting the city of Greenstone, instead of
Leaving behind an empty dead city.
Although he was temporarily freed from the state of sinking, Sun Huo still had difficulties in the face of such a request for help. Even though there are thousands of immortal arts and methods, he has never heard of a spell in the world of immortality that can
Conjuring food out of thin air. But since even Li Yan didn't hesitate to come to ask for help, then Greenstone City must have reached the point where it can no longer hold on. If it can't be solved, all the previous sacrifices and efforts will be in vain, and where will it go?
Si Ye has an explanation.
Sun Huo, who was calm on the surface but already panicked in his heart, searched eagerly in his storage bag with his mind. Knowing that this was a futile effort, he still hoped to find some kind of miracle. After a moment, Sun Huo suddenly slapped the storage bag, and a silver umbrella flew out from it with a surge of spiritual light. Li Yan subconsciously reached out to catch it, but was almost staggered by its unexpected weight.
.Thanks to his quick reaction due to his many years of martial arts practice, he used his hand in time to grab it suddenly, thus avoiding making a fool of himself on the spot.
Not in the mood to marvel at the magic of the immortal cultivators in retrieving things, Li Yan looked at the heavy silver umbrella in his hand with a puzzled look on his face. The current situation in Greenstone City is that even if you have money, you can't exchange for food, so even if you take out something like this, it doesn't seem like it.
What can a common treasure do? However, he did not ask him face to face. He just raised his eyes and looked at the man in front of him quietly, believing that he would have a reasonable explanation.
"You arrange for a trustworthy person to deliver it to Li's house in Xianlai City. Just say it's my wish, and use the umbrella as collateral in exchange for a thousand tons of grain. Don't worry, they will agree." Sun Huo said.
Overdoing it, he explained in a low voice.
Hearing this, Li Yan couldn't hide the horror on his face as he looked at the silver umbrella in his hand. He had no idea that Sun Huo could actually bring out the important treasure that made the deal, and the target was actually the master that the gang once worshiped.<
/p>
But the surprise came and went as quickly as it came, and Li Yan immediately noticed something was wrong. Although a thousand tons of food could feed the remaining people in Greenstone City for a long time, the time it took to deliver letters and transport food back and forth was the fastest.
It will take seven or eight days, because water from far away cannot quench the thirst from near.
Looking up, he saw the young man in front of him tilting his head with a sad expression. Li Yan instantly understood that he really tried his best, but he still couldn't defeat God's will.
There was a moment of wordless silence in the room, filled with hopeless sadness.
"Do you know what you are doing?" The scar-faced man said suddenly and coldly.
"I know." The two looked at each other in confusion, but Sun Huo responded simply at the same time.
"Do you know that those who interfere with the common people and disturb the order will be punished in the lightest way, and in the worst case, they will be renounced from the clan?"
"I know!"
"Do you know that you should never pass on a kindness, do not continue to do a favor, and do not carry on a grudge, which will lead to misfortune?"
"I know!"
"Do you know that the disasters in this world, every drink and every peck, are all destined to happen, and if you try to change your destiny rashly, you will be punished by God?"
"I know!"
As he asked and answered, the scarred man's eyes became colder and colder, and Sun Huo's tone became more firm and decisive.
"You know this, so why are you still stubborn until you are doomed?"
"People say that God is merciless, so you have no responsibility to put me first, and I can't force it. Everyone always has a choice. I do this because I am willing, but I want a clear conscience. Life will never die.
, if the future does not exist, there is no need to talk about suffering, grievances, and the way forward."

"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
With a sound of "Bang!", the scar-faced man threw the book in his hand on the table, stood up, and laughed angrily.
"Then do you believe that I will crush this ant to death right now, and then kill every living person in this city?"
As he spoke, the scar-faced man ferociously raised his left hand. The frightened Li Yan was instantly lifted off the ground as if someone had strangled his throat. He dropped the silver umbrella with both hands and grabbed the empty space around his neck, kicking his feet wildly.
He struggled desperately, his face was so red that he couldn't say a word.
Seeing that people would be killed in front of him again if they disagreed, Sun Huo was very anxious, but he did not dare to act rashly. The experience of being counterattacked last time when Ang Ji fought was as if it was just yesterday, and now it is not easy to act.
I don’t have the ability to take action and save Li Yan’s life at the same time.
After glaring at the scar-faced man angrily for a while, Sun Huo suddenly discovered something, and his tense heartstrings couldn't help but relax a little.
"I believe it. If it were in the past, the senior would have been gathering souls in the massacre at this moment, instead of threatening and questioning the junior like now. The aura of death on the senior's body has disappeared. Could it be that he was transformed by the voice from outside the sky?
"?" Looking into the other person's eyes, Sun Huo asked softly.
Hearing that Sun Huo actually revealed his secret, the man snorted coldly, and after a moment, he finally let go of Li Yan.
It was just a test of his determination rather than a real attempt to deliberately antagonize Sun Huo. This result surprised Sun Huo but he didn't understand the reason. After all, the two of them were not familiar with each other and even had a feud over Xiao Feng's death. He had no time to think about it carefully.
Strangely, Sun Huo suddenly understood something else.
"Senior, if you have any help for the emergency, please tell me clearly. I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the people of Greenstone." Sun Huo suddenly stood up and went to the ground, kowtowed to the scar-faced man and said in supplication.
Li Yan, who had just regained his breath, was obviously stunned for a moment when he saw this scene. Then he came to his senses and did not dare to be slow to kneel down and beg with him.
"Huh! There's no need to thank you again. It's not a special method. In years of disaster, there will always be bandits and strongmen who occupy the mountains and segregate themselves to rob wealth and food. If they are suppressed, won't there be food available?" The scar-faced man sat down and looked at it.
He started to pour the tea and said his method in a lukewarm manner.
Hearing this method, Li Yan couldn't help but show a bitter look on his face.
At this time, where can Greenstone City find any manpower capable of fighting and exterminating the bandits? Moreover, even if these people could be eliminated, the distance to the nearest mountain village from Greenstone City would not be enough in one day.
Transporting grain and grass back. Unless...
Li Yan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly understood the intention of the scarred man.
"Brother Li, do you know where the nearest bandits are setting up camp?" At this moment, Sun Huo suddenly asked.
"I know. There is a Black Harrier village one hundred and fifty miles southwest of Greenstone. There are two hundred..."
"Okay, Brother Li, please go and make arrangements. There will be food and grass in Green Stone before noon."
His words were interrupted, Li Yan's heart sank, and he couldn't bear to look at this man with lacerations all over his body. He was already so injured that he couldn't breathe anymore, and he still had to risk his life for mortals like them. It was really futile.
Naihe.
"Master Immortal, please take care! Li is gone."
But knowing that his intention was irreversible, Li Yan could only make up his mind, kowtowed once more, took back the silver umbrella, stood up, exited the inner room and left the small courtyard without looking back.
When Li Yan walked away, Sun Huofang spoke again: "Senior, I want to invite you..."
"I won't take action." The scar-faced man answered first.
"Senior, I misunderstood. I just want to ask you to send me there and back. As long as senior agrees, I still have some spiritual stones and spiritual materials on my body, and I am willing to let you choose. Or I can tailor a magic weapon for senior in the future.
Thank you for the reward for this trip. You think this is good." As if he had expected it, Sun Huo made his own conditions.
"If he doesn't go, I will!" At this time, Mu Xin's voice came from outside the door.
