Chapter 629 Who doesn’t want to return to their roots?
"But……"
Man Lei hesitated to speak, and finally asked, "But since that bastard Ye Yanluo married my aunt, why did he attack my grandfather's family?"
He couldn't help but clench his fists, and at the same time he understood his mother's painstaking efforts.
"I don't know the reason either. It depends on you to communicate with your mother. Promise me that she is not an easy woman. Don't be angry anymore." Ye Mu comforted him earnestly.
"I understand." Man Lei's eyes suddenly turned red.
He stopped where he was, staring quietly at Monta and the others who were getting closer and closer, searching for his mother.
At this time, it was almost dawn, but because of the rain, the sky was still gray.
Ye Mu and Man Lei looked back at the people who were gradually approaching Monta. After more than an hour's trek, none of them showed signs of exhaustion; they were all filled with excitement.
yes!
Finally escaped from the Dark Stone City Mine, which is like getting a new life!
"We are only five miles away from Qianshi Fortress. Why did you two stop?" Monta walked in front, looking at Ye Mu and Man Lei with a smile.
"General Meng, let's talk while we walk." Ye Mu waved his hand and smiled, and glanced at Man Lei who was staring into the distance beside him.
Monta understood, "Come on, let's talk on the way and decide how to kill Ye Qing."
"Ye Qing!" Man Lei suddenly turned around and grabbed Meng Ta's arm. "General Meng, how come I haven't seen that bastard Ye Qing since I captured him?"
"In my Panlong ring." Ye Mu shook the Panlong ring on his left thumb.
This ring is a token of the successive leaders of Guigu.
At the same time, it is also the low-grade artifact refined by the God of War Huayang in the past, the Sumeru Ring that can store living things.
"When we return to Qianshi Fortress, I will skin him alive!" Man Lei stared at the dragon ring on Ye Mu's left thumb, his face full of blue veins.
"He won't have a good end, but how he dies, we must carefully consider."
Ye Mu also wanted to kill Ye Qing, but considering that Ye Qing might become a bargaining chip in the war between the two sides, he did not kill her immediately and threw her directly into the Panlong Ring.
The material of the Panlong thumb ring is extremely special.
Although it can store living things, it is also related to the cultivation level of the wearer, and currently it can only accommodate one person.
As long as Ye Mu breaks through to the Void Realm, he can accommodate five people.
"Man Lei, your mother is here."
At this time, Ye Mu reminded Man Lei to pay attention to his breath and mentality.
Immediately, he left with Monta and others.
Until all the workers walked away, Man Lei and Mei Xiaoke were still staring at each other, and neither of them spoke first.
"mother!"
Man Lei suddenly knelt on one knee and said, "I am an unfilial son. I shouldn't have lost my temper with you before."
"Lei'er!"
When Mei Xiaoke heard the word "mother", he felt like he was struck by lightning. Tears of happiness instantly rolled down his cheeks and he hugged Man Lei in his arms.
The mother and son finally recognized each other.
As the sky grew brighter, Monta and his group had arrived at the Qianshi Fortress.
Ye Mu stood at the north city gate, looking down at Mei Xiaoke and Man Lei, mother and son, who were hugging each other in the distance, with a smile on his face.
"I didn't expect that they were actually mother and son." Ji Linglong walked over slowly.
"Yeah." Ye Mu couldn't help but sigh.
"How are you going to deal with Ye Qing?" Ji Linglong didn't beat around the bush and directly stated her purpose.
"He deserves death."
Ye Mu's eyes were instantly filled with murderous intent.
"As far as we know, he killed eleven innocent bounty hunters. He deserved to die." Ji Linglong nodded, as if she wanted to say something else.
But when he saw Ye Mu's expression full of doubt, he quietly closed his mouth.
"You know, among those eleven bounty hunters, there's also Zhu Ying, the woman Man Lei loves." Ye Mu's voice suddenly choked. "The reason is that Zhu Ying's death is directly related to me. This matter must be resolved."
"Do you want Man Lei to kill him?" Ji Linglong asked.
"He deserves to die, but he can't die now." Ye Mu seemed to be planning something, and then he said seriously, "I think we can use him to get more information about Dark Stone City."
"It is necessary to try him." Ji Linglong nodded.
"But, he knows that he will not survive, so why hasn't he revealed the truth yet?" Ye Mu was worried about this.
"Then make him live a life worse than death." Ji Linglong narrowed her eyes.
Ye Mu was silent.
At the beginning, Zhu Ying, at Man Lei's request, was captured by the Fifth Young Master Ye Qing in order to help Ye Mu find Zhang Bufan and Kunpeng who were imprisoned in the Dark Stone City mine.
This time, he and Ji Linglong sneaked into Dark Stone City, one to rescue Zhang Bufan and Kunpeng, and the other to find Zhu Ying and bring her back safely.
but!
The result was unexpected.
They were directly locked up in the mine, and the only thing they were thinking about was how to leave, but they neglected to look for Zhu Ying.
Yes, Ye Qing must die!
However, Ye Qing would not tell them the secrets of Dark Stone City.
"Actually, even without Ye Qing, we can still get a lot of information about Dark Stone City." Ji Linglong suddenly raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Man Lei's mother has been in Dark Stone City for fourteen years. She must know a lot, right?"
"yes!"
Ye Mu slapped his forehead. He hadn’t thought of such a simple thing!
"Speaking of which, I'm also responsible for Zhu Ying's death." Ji Linglong said with a guilty look on her face, "It was me who didn't warn you. Instead, I kept urging you to leave the mine..."
"This matter has nothing to do with you." Ye Mu shook his head. "Also, don't let Lao Zhang and Kunpeng know about this matter, so as not to make them feel guilty."
"clear."
Ji Linglong looked down at the city gate and saw all the laborers they had rescued. "Let's go down. It's time to make arrangements for their future lives."
"Didn't you already have a plan?"
Ye Mu and the other person chatted as they walked.
Ji Linglong did not deny it. "Yes, I have already notified Gengjin City. Fifty carriages will arrive this evening to take these three hundred people back and resettle them there."
"This arrangement is good, I have no objection." Ye Mu nodded.
"But from what I've learned from communication, half of the people are unwilling to do so. They still want to return to their former hometown," said Ji Linglong.
"That's their freedom, we shouldn't try to stop them." Ye Mu could understand the workers' feelings.
After being away from home for many years, who doesn’t want to return to their roots?
"That's right."
Ji Linglong abandoned her original idea and wanted everyone to settle down in Gengjin City to strengthen the strength of their Ji family.
The two came to the general's mansion.
Xiahou Tie was communicating with Monta. When he saw the two of them coming, they all smiled.
"Brother Mu, I have just sent a message to my grandfather through the jade talisman. When they learned that I escaped from the mine and accepted a talented apprentice like you for the family, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. They hope that we can go back now." Xiahou Tie walked up.
"Are you leaving now?"
Ye Mu calculated the time.
Indeed, he couldn't stay in Qianshi Fortress for long. "Linglong, we will be separated for a while. After I go to the Xiahou family, I will go to the Dongyi land. I will be able to come to Gengjin City to find you in three months at the latest."
"The crown prince of the Great Zhou royal family will be getting married in Zhongshan City in half a month. Luo Luoyi will also be there. Aren't you going?" Ji Linglong reminded.
