Chapter 584 The story of the old man

The man in purple was not qualified to refute the elder's decision, but in his heart, he was also full of curiosity about Mu Yi. After all, it would be a great thing for the human race to have a peerless genius. It was a pity that he had no qualifications at the time.

Due to limitations and some special reasons, I can only take the path of pseudo-celestial beings.

Although he has been making up for the foundation over the years, how easy is it to correct it once he makes a mistake? When he knew that the Blood King's barrier was born, he was tempted, but he knew that with his identity, he could not at all

It is impossible to act rashly, otherwise it will definitely lead to greater consequences, so I can only secretly regret it in my heart.

But thinking about what the elder said just now, Mu Yi actually got the general lotus platform, which is the Taoist foundation of the Blood King, and he couldn't help but feel excited again. Of course, with his status, it was impossible to take it by force or steal it openly, but as the city lord of Jingzhou City, such a

Over the years, he also has his own savings.

Although the Blood King's lotus platform foundation is precious, it is not priceless. Even compared to Mu Yi, it is obviously not more important in his mind, so as long as he is willing to pay enough chips, he may not be able to exchange for part of the lotus platform foundation.

In this way, coupled with his years of making amends, he may once again have a chance to catch a glimpse of a true heavenly being. Although it is not absolute, it is at least a hope.

However, all this must wait until the elder meets the other party and confirms that the other party is really from the human race and there are no problems before he can proceed. As for using force, he has never thought that one person can defeat the King of Satsuma and force him to his maximum.

The level of the trump card itself shows that the opponent is on the same level as him.

Thinking about a young and strong person who has only reached the highest level of Taoism and has already caught up with him makes people envious and jealous.

This kind of envy has nothing to do with jealousy, it's just a pure instinct.

The whole afternoon, Mu Yi was immersed in those books. The old man quietly peeked in at the door several times, and saw that Mu Yi was just reading there seriously, with a heartfelt smile on his face. His whole person seemed to be full of energy, and he even went to

Wandering around outside, everyone he saw was smiling, which made many neighbors who knew him curious.

However, the old man just smiled and said nothing and did not spread Mu Yi's affairs. Otherwise, if these people disturbed him, Mu Yi would definitely feel uneasy. What's more, reading requires quietness, so he can only enjoy this kind of reading alone.

Happy.

After shopping, the old man walked back. When he was about to enter his home, his eyes suddenly went dark, and then he didn't know anything at all.

"Squeak!"

The slight sound of the door opening woke Mu Yi up. He looked up and saw the old man walking in. Mu Yi saw that it was getting late outside, so he put the book back on the shelf.

"Xiao Yi, how do you feel?" the old man asked. Mu Yi also took the initiative to tell him his name.

"Old man, I can see that your son is a book lover. These books have helped me a lot." Mu Yi said sincerely. At least now, he has a thorough understanding of the entire underworld.

It's like looking at flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water like before, it looks hazy.

"It's good to be helped, it's good to be helped." The old man looked at the cabinet full of books and said repeatedly, his expression seemed to be filled with a trace of reminiscence, probably thinking of his late son again.

"Xiao Yi, would you mind listening to the old man tell a story?" the old man asked suddenly.

"You don't mind, uncle, please tell me." Mu Yi said. At this moment, he had vaguely anticipated what story the other party was going to say, but he was not impatient at all, but showed a serious look on his face.

"Eighteen years ago, I picked up a child at the door. It was cold at that time and the child was almost unconscious from the cold. I don't know why, the first time I saw him, I really fell in love with him. I took him there.

I found a doctor and finally rescued him. From then on, I adopted him and he became my only son. I named him Zhao Wu."

"Zhao Wu has been sensible and not naughty since he was a child. When other children were playing, he would help me with the work. He learned how to cook at a young age, and he never made me worry."

"When he was ten years old, a nearby martial arts gym was recruiting disciples. I sent him there, but he failed to pass. That was the first time Zhao Wu locked himself in the room and cried. He cried all night. I was at the door at that time.

I stood all night."

"Originally, I planned to ask others to accept him the next day, but Zhao Wu told me that he wanted to study. At least it was much easier than the restrictions in the martial arts school, so I sent him to a school to study. Zhao Wu

Wu is very smart and is often praised by his teachers in the school. However, I found that he is not as happy as before, and often secretly practices martial arts in the yard while I am asleep. He thinks that I am asleep and does not know, but in fact

, I’m looking at him.”

"Slowly, Zhao Wu grew up and read more and more books. In fact, the books here were all written by him word by word, one by one. They are his hard work over the years. If I die in the future

Later, these books will be donated to schools so that more children can learn these things."

"But I know that he has always had a dream of becoming a warrior in his heart. After all, in this underworld, if you want to protect yourself, you have to become strong first. Until one day, he left me a letter and left without saying goodbye.

That day, I knew that he knelt at the door, kowtowed to me several times, and left with tears in his eyes. I could have stopped him and asked him not to leave, but I didn't want him to have any regrets because of me."

"It's been three years since he left! Every day, I pray for him. I don't ask him to become a powerful person. I just hope that he can return safely. That's enough."

"Until one day, a warrior came to my door with a letter, a gun, and a bow in his hand. At that time, I knew that my Zhao Wu would never come back. The warrior told me,

Zhao Wu did not disappoint me. He became a warrior and a second-rate master. Unfortunately, he was killed by a demon clan while rescuing a village in the wilderness."

"It would be a lie to say that I have no regrets. Sometimes I often think, if I had not named him Zhao Wu, what would have happened if I had called him back? Wouldn't he have left?

Dead? But I thought, if he can't complete his dream, he must be unhappy in his heart. I can't let him give up his dream just because of my selfishness and reluctance."

"After all, who didn't have dreams when they were young? Even I had them, but I wasn't as brave as Zhao Wu. He did what he wanted to do. Although he died in the end, I believe he would not regret it."

"And he sacrificed his life to save my fellow humans, so I will be proud of him." (To be continued)
