Chapter 412: Is He Worthy of the Name Huo? [2 more]
Ye Wanlan is the treasure of the archaeological center, but he has no value to their Huo family.
The Huo family only cares about everything related to the Shen Ce Army, especially the Shen Ce spear skills.
"I'll teach you again. The Divine Power Spear is Marshal Huo's weapon. It is also the weapon passed down from generation to generation by the commanders of the Shen Ce Army." The Huo family's fourth leader's eyes were cold and aggressive. "Don't be greedy and take what is not yours for yourself!"
He didn't believe what Professor Fu said at all. How could anyone not have evil thoughts when seeing such a magical weapon as the Shenwei Gun?
Ye Wanlan's expression did not change at all, and his tone was flat: "May I know your name?"
"You are not qualified to know my name." The fourth elder of the Huo family looked very arrogant.
"In that case, I'll just give you a name today." Ye Wanlan smiled slightly, "Get rid of the surname Huo, and from now on, you will be called 'Li Yi Lian', how about that?"
The fourth elder of the Huo family sneered: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Ye Wanlan looked at him calmly: "I said you are shameless."
These four words finally made the fourth elder of the Huo family realize that Ye Wanlan was scolding him. She was shocked and angry: "Stinky girl, what are you talking about?!"
He stood up suddenly, picked up a wooden stick beside him, and wanted to teach Ye Wanlan a lesson.
"Fourth Brother!" The eldest elder of the Huo family could no longer bear it and raised his hand directly, "Step down. Don't you see what you look like? Are you showing off your power here by relying on your seniority?"
With a "pa" sound, the fourth elder of the Huo family was slapped in the face from a distance.
He was caught off guard by the slap, and the eldest elder of the Huo family did not hold back his strength, and his body actually flew backwards.
Then there was another "bang" and it fell to the ground.
Professor Xue opened his mouth into an O shape and tried hard to hold back a "wow" sound.
He had heard long ago that each of the five major families in Yunjing had a martial arts heritage. Although it was far from the grand scenes of the martial arts world depicted in ancient times, it was still possible to fly over eaves, walk on walls, and tread on water without leaving any traces.
Before today, Professor Xue could never have imagined that a slap could be so powerful that it could send a person flying several meters away.
"..."
There was silence all around, and the head of the Huo family and other elders of the Huo family did not say a word.
“Brother!” The fourth elder of the Huo family covered his face in disbelief, “You, how could you…”
"We should act with reason, not power!" The eldest elder of the Huo family said coldly, "Fourth Brother, you must return to the family immediately and kneel before the Grand Elder for three days before coming out again."
The eyes of the fourth elder of the Huo family suddenly widened, and he shouted unwillingly: "Brother!"
The eldest elder of the Huo family simply said indifferently: "You can go now. When you go back, ask yourself whether you are worthy of the surname 'Huo'."
As soon as these words came out, the expression of the head of the Huo family changed.
It was because the words of the Great Elder were so heavy. After all, the Huo family were proud of their surname Huo.
The fourth elder of the Huo family opened his mouth and his face turned red. He took a deep breath and walked away, looking very angry.
"Also, after we finish dealing with this important matter, the family will have to elect new elders." The eldest elder of the Huo family looked around with dignity, "I hope the new fourth elder knows what he should do, and the rest of you should take this as a warning."
The Huo family master said respectfully: "Yes, I understand what you mean."
Yu Luan Zan commented: "This elder is quite sensible and doesn't side with outsiders."
Ye Wanlan did not comment: "Grand Elder, still Grand Elder."
Qing Yunpei sighed: "If Marshal Huo saw that these people with his name were actually from the Shen Ce Army, he would definitely clean up the mess."
Who would have thought that termites would still be rampant a hundred years later.
A family like the Huo family has thousands of members, plus guards and various managers, the total number is nearly ten thousand.
With such a huge number, if there really weren't a few corrupt officials, the Huo family would have long become the world's top family.
"You also leave." The Huo family elder said, "I want to talk to this Miss Ye alone."
Professor Fu and Professor Xue both looked at Ye Wanlan, their expressions inevitably showing worry.
"Obedience is worse than respect." Ye Wanlan nodded, "Great Elder, please come this way."
What even the Huo family's great elder did not expect was that Ye Wanlan actually took him directly to the place where Huo Jingyu was buried.
The archaeological team had already built the first layer of protection, but upon seeing the remains of his ancestors with his own eyes, the Huo family's eldest elder was shocked and burst into tears.
Although he is already over seventy years old, the era of Huo Jingyu is still very far away from him.
But the people of China share the same blood and their hearts will never change.
The eldest elder of the Huo family knelt down and bowed three times devoutly to the huge skeleton in front of him.
"Grand Elder, the Divine Power Spear is right here." Ye Wanlan said, "If you can take it away, you can take it away directly." "Oh?" The Great Elder of the Huo Family was very surprised, "You don't want to..."
Ye Wanlan smiled faintly: "Grand Elder, please."
The eldest elder of the Huo family stepped forward very carefully. He bent down and wanted to pick up the Shenwei Spear that was broken into two pieces.
However, at this moment, the Divine Power Spear was as heavy as a mountain.
Even though the Huo family's eldest elder used all his internal strength, he was still unable to lift the Divine Power Spear.
After a moment's silence, he stood up and bowed deeply to Huo Jingyu's body.
"It seems that Marshal Huo is still alive." The Huo family's eldest elder said with some regret, "This is where he died in battle. He didn't want to leave, so of course we have to respect him."
What the Huo family inherited was not only the Shen Ce spearmanship, but also the Shen Ce military spirit.
The reason why he was so angry and directly deprived the fourth elder of the Huo family of his position was because what the fourth elder of the Huo family did was really contrary to the original intention of the Shen Ce Army.
The Shen Ce Army guards China and protects the people. How can they use their power to oppress others?
Unfortunately, there has been peace for too long, and many people in high positions have been blinded by greed.
"I feel guilty and uneasy in my heart." The elder of the Huo family murmured, "Now the Huo family is in a period of transition. Among the younger generation, only Yun Yi, Yun Gui and Yun Yan can barely hold up the overall situation. But what will happen after these three people?"
Could it be that the inheritance of the Shen Ce Army is about to be cut off?
Ye Wanlan listened quietly and did not answer.
After coming back to his senses, the eldest elder of the Huo family clasped his fists and said, "I am really sorry for what happened today. If Miss Ye comes to Yunjing in the future and needs anything, you can come to me directly."
He handed a token to Ye Wanlan.
"Thank you for your kindness, Great Elder." Ye Wanlan did not refuse. She smiled and said, "I will go to Yunjing soon."
Although he could not take the Divine Power Spear with him, the Huo family's eldest elder did not leave. After all, protecting Huo Jingyu's burial place was of utmost importance.
After listening to the story told by the eldest elder of the Huo family, the Huo family members felt very sorry and unwilling.
Professor Fu was puzzled and asked in a low voice, "Why can Wanlan lift it but they can't?"
"You are so stupid!" Professor Xue looked at him with disdain. "Wan Lan said that the magic weapon has a spirit. Anyone who is not recognized by the magic weapon cannot take it away."
"But..." Professor Fu choked, "But the elder of the Huo family should have practiced the Shen Ce spear technique to a very high level, right? He is also an upright person, why can't he take it away?"
Professor Xue said righteously: "It must be because that old man, the fourth elder of the Huo family, destroyed the blessings of the first elder."
Professor Fu: "..."
Fine.
He should have known that no matter what he said, he could not defeat Professor Xue.

At this moment, late at night, the archaeological team is still working.
On the other side, the returning tomb-robbing gangs were all furious.
"We have been digging for so long, but the archaeological center has intercepted us!" A young man was furious. "If it was an ordinary thing, it would be fine, but this is Huo Jingyu and the Shenwei Gun!"
Even if Huo Jingyu was left with only a pile of rotten bones, Global Center would definitely be willing to pay a high price for him.
Add to that the value of the Shenwei Gun, and they would become rich instantly, just a little bit short.
"Boss, no, I can't swallow this." The young man became angrier and angrier. "The archaeological team stole our stuff, so we have to take it back."
The leader of the tomb-robbing gang was a middle-aged man. He looked gloomy and said, "Yes, we have to take it back. Forget about the corpse, but we have to find a way to take the Shenwei Gun away."
This is Huo Jingyu’s weapon!
If it were put on auction at the Global Center, it would surely fetch a sky-high price.
"Wait a little longer." The middle-aged man took a puff of cigarette, "Let's wait until the archaeological team has rested, then we can act."
"Yes, boss!"
The night deepened and the lights dimmed.
In the pitch darkness, there were extremely faint sounds of footsteps, which were impossible for human hearing to detect.
But Ye Wanlan can.
She slowly opened her eyes, her expression calm.
somebody is coming.
Just right, practice shooting.
