Fang Yun did not expect the guard of a Grand Scholar family to be so humble. He nodded and handed over the letter he had prepared earlier. There were some things written on it, but it was not detailed.
The oldest soldier took the letter with both hands and said, "Please wait for a moment." He then turned around and walked into the main door.
Not long after, Fang Yun heard a sorrowful cry coming from inside.
"Yun Jie, my son!"
Fang Yun saw an old Grand Scholar run out. His eyes were red and his white hair hung loosely behind his back. His face was full of anxiety.
Fang Yun coughed and said, "If you are Uncle Yun, please come in and talk."
The old Grand Scholar was stunned. He slowed down his footsteps and said while suppressing his sadness, "I am Yun He. I would like to invite you into the house for a chat."
Fang Yun nodded and entered the Yun residence. He glanced around and saw that the architecture was similar to Saint Origin World's two hundred years ago. The cobblestone roads were damaged, the corridors were moldy, and the fake mountains were covered in moss. It matched the Bloodlight Ancient Land that he knew. Other than the Dragon Grain Rice, the Bloodlight Ancient Land was inferior to Saint Origin World in every aspect. Even the residences of the big families were not well-equipped.
The two of them walked on the cobblestone road and arrived at the main hall. Before they entered, they saw a group of people walking out from the side courtyard.
The leader of the group was an old Grand Scholar who looked similar to the head of the family, Yun He. Compared to Yun He, this person looked more dignified and less approachable.
"Third Brother, Yun Jie …" Yun He clenched his teeth and could not continue. His eyes were filled with tears.
The Yun Family's Third Brother was taken aback and a strange look flashed through his eyes. He hurriedly stepped forward to support his Eldest Brother and then nodded to Fang Yun, "It's difficult for me to greet you at this moment. This Old Master apologizes to this Grand Scholar."
Fang Yundao said, "You are Uncle Yun Hu, right? It's fine. Let's talk inside. "
Yun Hu nodded and helped his brother into the main hall.
The others followed. Fang Yundao said, "Uncle Yun, today's matter is very important. Please send the others away. "
"They are all family," Yun Hu said.
Fang Yundao said, "The fewer people who know, the better."
The two servants who came with Yun Hu took the initiative to walk out, while the other three who were not wearing servant uniforms stood still on the spot.
Yun Hu frowned. Head of the family, Yun He, waved his hand. "You go out and close the door. Just leave three people here."
"Yes!" However, the three people did not move and looked at Yun Hu.
Yun Hu said angrily, "Yun! There's no such thing as high or low. "
The three Yun Hu. He lowered his head and left in a hurry.
Yun He sat on the main seat in the deepest part of the main hall. He looked at Fang Yun tiredly and said, "Nephew, please take a seat."
Fang Yun nodded and sat down in the first guest seat. Yun Hu stood beside Yun He, not daring to sit down.
Yun He finished speaking. He handed Fang Yun's visiting card to Yun Hu. Yun Hu read it carefully twice. His expression kept changing. In the end, he burst into tears. "My nephew!"
Fang Yun immediately released the power of Literary Courage to block out the noise. At the same time, he weakened the power of Literary Courage.
Yun He's eyes were full of tears. He kept wiping his tears with his sleeves and tried to persuade Yun Hu.
Fang Yun sat there quietly. He did not say a word and looked at the two. Fang Yun heard from the waiter. Yun He had just celebrated his fifty-fifth birthday. Based on his appearance, he looked like an eighty-year-old man in Saint Origin. Yun Hu was only fifty-three years old, but he looked more than seventy years old.
The average lifespan in the Bloodlight Ancient Land was low. Almost no one lived to seventy years old.
After a while, the two from the Yun family stopped.
Yun He said, "Nephew, when did you meet my son?"
Fang Yun answered, "Ten days ago. I was preparing to go to Shangwu City at the front line. On the way, I met Brother Yun Jie and the others. When I saw them fighting with a dozen demon bears, I went to help. After killing all the demon bears, I did not want a single bear ear and was about to leave. Brother Yun Jie talked to me and we went together. Later, Brother Yun Jie said that he was going to look for rice. Seeing that my strength was not bad, he invited me to join his team. "
Yun He nodded. Yun Hu cupped his fists and said, "May I ask, Lord Grand Scholar, what rank are your military merits?"
Fang Yun pretended to be embarrassed. He said, "I did not leave Qi City before I became a Grand Scholar. I did not kill any demon bears. I did not have a military merit badge, let alone military merits."
Yun He said, "This nephew is from the same family. Third brother, you don't have to be so polite. Do you mind?"
Fang Yun smiled. "Greetings, Uncle Yun He. Greetings, Uncle Yun Hu."
The two old men nodded. Yun He looked relieved. However, Yun Hu still stared at Fang Yun. He then sat on the other main seat.
Fang Yun ignored him.
Yun Hu said, "Nephew Yun Fang, where did you go after that?"
"After that, we headed southwest and went deep into Axe Mountain. We met some demon beasts on the way. After going through a lot of difficulties, we finally found a Dragon Grain Rice field on a hill."
"What? Dragon Grain Rice field? "Yun Hu suddenly stood up. The sorrow in Yun He's eyes deepened.
Fang Yun nodded and said, "Brother Yun Jie said that the Yun family on Changle Street found a small Dragon Grain Rice field. This was the second time in a hundred years that the Yun family found a Dragon Grain Rice field. The last Dragon Grain Rice field was found in Juyun City was twenty years ago. That was why Brother Yun Jie was very happy. "
Yun Hu quickly suppressed his joy and asked, "What happened after that?"
"We drew a map and went back. According to the rules, I contributed a lot. If the rice field was ten, I would get thirty percent. After that, we went straight to Juyun City. However, we were chased by hundreds of demon bears. We had to fight and run. Unfortunately, the people in the team died one after another. Later, even Brother Nie Hong died. Both of you know that Brother Yun Jie and Brother Nie Hong were like brothers. Brother Yun Jie rushed forward angrily and said to give the map to me. If he died, as long as the map was given to the Yun family, I would get half of the Dragon Grain Rice. Brother Yun Jie rushed too deep and was outnumbered. He had no choice but to bury his sword. Then, he was killed by the demon bears. I wanted to save him, but there was nothing I could do. "
Yun He was immersed in sorrow. Yun Hu's eyes flashed with doubt and asked, "How did you survive alone?"
Yun He also raised his head and stared at Fang Yun.
Fang Yun didn't say anything. He took out the heads of three demon bears from the Hanhu Shell at his waist and threw them in front of the two. The priceless Hanhu Shell was hidden in his clothes.
The two first looked at Fang Yun's Hanhu Shell and were surprised. Then, they carefully examined the head of the demon bear commander.
Yun He said, "This demon bear commander's head was cut off by an extremely powerful ancient sword made of talent Qi. Even the sword of an ordinary Hanlin Academy would not be able to cut it off so cleanly. I'm afraid that only the sword of a scholar's tongue could cut it off so cleanly."
Yun Hu nodded.
Fang Yun's expression was calm. He purposely used a little trick. He took out the corpses and let the two make their own conclusions. This way, they would be less suspicious if he followed up with his story.
Fang Yundao said, "Yes. I was about to die too, but I didn't expect a scholar to appear and kill all the demon bears. After asking about my experience, he threw me a Hanhu Shell and told me to store the corpses. I asked how to return the Hanhu Shell. He said that when I went to the frontline city, I would return it to him if I had the chance to see him. "
