    One person and one Flower Immortal worked together, digging, digging and shoveling, and then decorated it with shells, starfish and seaweed. Ten minutes later, a beautiful new castle was born.

    Compared with the first version, the layout of the castle this time is more reasonable, the small windows dug out are also angular, and Ye Bai also arranged the decorative shells and seaweeds in various shapes, which looks much more exquisite than before.

    He stood on the upside-down keg, looked at the new castle in front of him, and became more and more satisfied with it: "It's——it's beautiful!"

    There was no movement around him, Ye Bai turned his head and found that Huo Chengyuan was staring at him intently.

    "What's wrong?" Ye Bai touched his face subconsciously, "Is there something on my face?"

    "No." Huo Chengyuan smiled, stretched out his hand to hug the little Flower Immortal, "I just think, Little Ye, you look better."

    Ye Bai:?

    It seems that this person's mood has indeed improved, and he started blowing rainbow farts on his pet again!

    After building the new castle, they went to the beach to pick up some new shells, and enjoyed the sunset on the sea level together. After the sky completely darkened, they packed up their things and headed back home.

    Ye Bai didn't know what Huo Chengyuan and Sister Xi Xi said. He thought that after returning home, the girl would definitely complain that they didn't take him with them when they went out to play. Unexpectedly, Huo Mingxi didn't complain at all. When we had dinner together, she not only didn't ask themDuring the trip, he kept looking at Ye Bai with a smile on his face, which made Ye Bai's heart flutter, and checked several times whether he had put on his clothes backwards.

    After dinner, Huo Mingxi, who felt that he was not a light bulb, quickly slipped away, and Huo Chengyuan looked at Xiao Huaxian who put down the small tableware.

    "Little Ye, what are you going to do next? Do you want to play in the toy world for a while?"

    Ye Bai immediately shook his head and yawned a little: "I'm tired—I want to sleep—"

    "Okay, I'll take you back to the bedroom."

    Ye Bai obediently asked Huo Chengyuan to take him back to the bedroom, and after washing up under the care of the other party, he got into the big shell bed early.

    Huo Chengyuan looked down at the little Flower Immortal lying on the shell bed, and stretched out his hand to cover it with a small quilt: "Good night, Little Ye."

    Ye Bai was covered tightly, only a small golden head was exposed: "Ayuan you - when are you going to rest?"

    "I'm going to work in the study for a while." Huo Chengyuan said, "I may come back later, you have a good rest, don't wait for me."

    Ye Bai nodded obediently: "Yeah."

    The big leaf that blocked the light returned to its original position, the night light on the glass castle was turned off, and the headlight in the bedroom was also turned off. Ye Bai closed his eyes, but his little pointed ears stood up. He listened to Huo Chengyuan walking towards the door of the bedroom, Open the door, close the door, the sound of footsteps gradually fades away, until it is completely silent.

    "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Ye Bai sat up straight, he quickly flew out of the big shell bed and landed in front of his mobile phone.

    His mobile phone is now fixed in the glass castle. Huo Chengyuan glued the mobile phone firmly to a sturdy bracket. Ye Bai didn't have to worry about hurting himself when the mobile phone fell down. He unlocked the mobile phone skillfully and waited for the desktop to display it.After that, I immediately clicked into the search bar.

    In the text input box of the search bar, Ye Bai thought for a while, and entered what he wanted to find——

    "The Moston City Tragedy".

    The reason why he was able to spell out this group of words was because he had repeatedly seen this group of words in the book in his mind, and after searching, he found out what it meant.

    The reason why this is mentioned repeatedly in the original book is because this tragedy completely reversed the trajectory of Huo Chengyuan's life, and its impact was huge and far-reaching: the reputation of the Huo family fell to the bottom overnight, and Huo Chengyuan was given a shameful marriage contractThere are still so many people supporting and applauding. The root of everything lies in this terrible tragedy.

    However, the ins and outs of this incident were not elaborated in the early stage of the book. With Ye Bai's kindergarten-level literacy level, he stumbled when reading, and could only vaguely know that this incident made a university with a population of one millionIn the city, more than half of the casualties occurred in a very short period of time, and all of this seemed to be related to Huo Chengyuan's mental strength, but whether he should be responsible for it, and whether this appalling tragedy was directly related to Huo Chengyuan, have always been controversial.

    Ye Bai actually wanted to know the truth, but his reading ability made it difficult for him to immediately find the content that revealed the truth of the incident. The person involved, Huo Chengyuan, had never mentioned this matter to him. As a "Little Flower Immortal",If you ask the bottom of things that you shouldn't know, it will easily arouse others' suspicion, so Ye Bai has been suppressing his curiosity, and didn't go out of his way to find out more.

    The little girl I met at the seaside today, the "dead parents" she said in her mouth, is most likely the victim of this incident, which made Ye Bai think about it again, and now Huo Chengyuan isWord-of-mouth on the Internet has turned around. The descriptions of the "Moston City Massacre" on the Internet are no longer one-sided black material and rumors. If you search now, you may find more objective and true content.

    Ye Bai turned on the word reader, and listened to the content while copying the text. Because the reading length of the word reader is limited, the "copying and reading method" is time-consuming and laborious. Fortunately, Huo Chengyuan stayed in the study for a long time tonight, and Ye Bai finally caught up.Before he returned to his bedroom, he got a general overview of the "Moston City tragedy".

    Moston City is located on a planet on the border of the Grimm Empire. It used to be the largest city on the planet, and it was also a large star road hub for external navigation and transportation. Regardless of its commercial or strategic position, it is very important.

    But later, conflicts broke out between the Green Empire and its hostile neighbors. This tug-of-war lasted for ten years. During this period, Moston City fell into the control of the enemy.Zone: There are many gangs, star thieves are rampant, various forces are complicated and chaotic, and they are intertwined. In the end, the local area has become a vacuum of official power, and the separatist forces have expanded and become bigger.This place has gradually become a paradise and paradise for criminals.

    It was not until the end of the war between the Grimm Empire and neighboring countries that Moston City returned to the jurisdiction of the Grimm Empire.But at that time, it had grown into a huge cancer. The administrators dispatched in the past were either assassinated or joined forces with the local forces, and became their umbrella for evil. During this period, there were also infiltration and deliberate chaos by enemy spies. Such a chaotic situation,No officials are willing to go to govern again, and the strong dragon can hardly suppress the local tyrant. The city of Moston belongs to the Grimm Empire in name, but in essence it has broken away from the control of the empire.

    At this time, the regime in the imperial capital has undergone earth-shaking changes. The previous king died suddenly due to a sudden illness, and the little-known fourth prince Augu unexpectedly succeeded to the throne and became the new ruler of the Grimm Empire.Not long after he ascended the throne, the hot potato of Moston City was handed over to Huo Chengyuan.

    Seeing this, Ye Bai already understood: the new His Majesty's suppression of Huo Chengyuan had already started from this moment.Because in the previous Great Patriotic War, Huo Chengyuan had accumulated a lot of meritorious service on the battlefield, and there were even rumors that he would soon be promoted and become the third marshal of the military department.He pushed into the rotten quagmire of Moston City.

    But the new His Majesty did not expect that after Huo Chengyuan led the army into Moston City, he was not helpless against the local chaos like the previous executive officers.He even changed his iron-blooded and tough style on the battlefield. After clarifying the local situation, he only implemented some innocuous new policies, without any intention of going against the local forces.

    When everyone thought that the new military and consul was just a worthless bag, several major local tyrant forces suddenly broke out in a large-scale fight. They accused each other of destroying their own capital chains.For this reason, there was a big fight, and there was a lot of trouble.

    It was like dropping a boulder into a bottomless pool, causing waves of waves, and more and more people were involved, and some big bosses who were hiding behind the scenes began to show up involuntarily.After the cards of all parties were revealed, and both parties suffered losses, Huo Chengyuan entered the arena unhurriedly, served everyone in one pot, and made a beautiful dumpling.

    After this battle, the local smuggler forces were completely wiped out, and the official forces represented by Huo Chengyuan dominated. Afterwards, various new policies were implemented to eliminate the remaining forces, wipe out the enemy's spies, and other measures. There was little resistance and the implementation was very smooth.

    Ye Bai compared the time of the search results, and found that in the half year since Huo Chengyuan settled in Moston City, the outside public opinion generally had a very good evaluation of him, and the local residents also praised his methods full of praise.The city will rise even higher.After discovering that things did not develop in the direction he expected, the new His Majesty in the imperial capital quickly regretted it. The military department soon issued an order to let Huo Chengyuan end his garrison and return to the imperial capital.

    On the second day after Huo Chengyuan left with the army, something happened in Moston City.

    The beginning of the disaster started from the prison: Several gang leaders who were personally arrested by Huo Chengyuan suddenly suffered from strange diseases in prison. They had difficulty breathing, their bodies were edematous, festered all over their bodies, and they died suddenly one after another within half an hour.

    Within an hour of their deaths, all the prisoners in the prison had the same symptoms. The terrified prison guards saw the prisoners dying in excruciating pain one by one, and they were frightened out of their wits.new consul.

    But the new consul has not yet issued instructions, and has received more information for help: not only in prisons, but also in hospitals, shopping malls, schools, factories and other places, the same situation has occurred one after another, and people have difficulty breathing without warning., his body swelled, and then his whole body festered, and he died suddenly within half an hour.

    Just like the god of death crossing the border, an invisible death scythe crazily harvested the lives of people in Moston City. The terrified people either hid at home and dared not go out, or fled by means of transportation, but no matter which one they chose, these peopleNone of them escaped the god of death. In just one night, more than half of the residents of Moston City died, and most of the people who escaped died on the road.

    As soon as the news of "massive and bizarre deaths of residents of Moston City" came out, it immediately caused a shock in the entire empire. When the government sent an investigation team into Moston City, someone exposed a confidential document on the Internet.Detailed, rich in pictures and texts, the target is directed at Huo Chengyuan - this S-level psychic, a high-ranking general in the military, and a hereditary Duke of the empire. His psychic ability happens to be able to make people die strangely, and it spreads and spreads rapidly in a short period of timeThe "pollution" of death.

    Although the whistleblower didn't directly link Huo Chengyuan with the "Moston City Tragedy", Huo Chengyuan's departure and an accident in Moston City did not allow people to think about it.As a result, public opinion was raging, and the public sentiment was excited. Huo Chengyuan became the accusation of thousands of people for a while, and various conspiracy theories also sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

    Some people say that Huo Chengyuan is a war machine cultivated by the Huo family since he was a child. This terrible ability exists to massacre enemies on the battlefield; some people say that Huo Chengyuan actually established a secret base in Moston City.The purpose of human beings, but because he was temporarily transferred back to the imperial capital, he was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so he simply slaughtered the entire city; some people said that Huo Chengyuan was a devil, and he took pleasure in killing people every day, and his hands were already stained with blood.It's just that the previous crimes have been suppressed by the high-level officials, and this time, the accidental incident has attracted the attention of the whole people...

    These conspiracy theories were too ignorant, it was an insult to IQ. Ye Bai stopped listening after listening to a few. He checked the time on his phone and found that it was already past midnight. He was worried that Huo Chengyuan would come back anytime. Ye BaiQuickly cleared the search history, then turned off the phone, and got into the big shell bed again.

    Although it was very late, Ye Bai tossed and turned, never feeling sleepy.As long as he closes his eyes, he will think of what he saw and heard just now, and he also remembered that after the wedding, the angry crowd surrounded Huo Chengyuan and the others outside the auditorium, and those people shouted angrily——

    "He is a bloody executioner! He caused the destruction of Moston City! He is a disgrace to the Empire!"

    It has been nearly five months since the accident in Moston City. During these five months, has Huo Chengyuan been subjected to such abuse and attacks?How did he survive when the public opinion was the most intense and the public grievances were the most boiling?

    Ye Bai sighed softly, closed his eyes, and silently opened the book in his mind.

    The book that came to his mind was much different than before—in the blank space of the page, it was densely filled with explanations and annotations.

    This is a function that Ye Bai discovered by accident: he can write on the pages of the book with his mind, so when he looks up words and sentences that he doesn't understand on his mobile phone, he will mark them, so that it is much more convenient to review them later.

    His current reading progress has only reached the fifth chapter. Half of the pages here are about how Huo Chengyuan tried to use his remaining power to compete with the royal family when his reputation fell to the bottom after the wedding and became the laughing stock of the whole people.In Ye Bai's opinion, part of the content is outdated, and he has read it in vain. In reality, Huo Chengyuan did not become the laughing stock of the whole people, and even turned an army, causing the royal family and Duke Del to burn out; the remaining half of the text, wrote how Huo Chengyuan prepared for the upcoming military court.

    It was also in this part of the content that Ye Bai saw Huo Chengyuan's hesitation and confusion: he was sure that he was framed, but he didn't think that the massacre of the city was done by the royal family.If you hate him, you won't risk the lives of a whole city for a political opponent who has lost power.

    Although it is not clearly written in the book, between the lines, as well as some attitudes and reactions of Huo Chengyuan in reality, Ye Bai has a vague guess: Huo Chengyuan can confirm that he did not harm the people of Moston City subjectively, but he does not seem toToo sure that the terrible death that spread so quickly had nothing to do with him at all.

    Because the circumstances of those deaths did coincide with his spiritual power, and he was the only case of this rare spiritual power in the entire empire.He doesn't know if he is really not responsible, let alone if he should be responsible, so he has no way to fight back forcefully when faced with other people's condemnation and abuse, because he doesn't know the truth and the answer himself.

    And this is the most excruciating part—

    He wants to know the truth more than anyone else, but perhaps, he is also more afraid of knowing the truth than anyone else.
