He Yuzhu returns in Siheyuan

Chapter 688 Basement

He Yuzhu naturally understood what Liu Si was thinking. He still smiled and said patiently, "Brother Liu Si, you really misunderstood. Have you ever thought about why the relationship between the Jiaolong clan and your snake clan has always been so rigid and difficult to ease?"

Liu Si frowned slightly, his eyes full of confusion. He had indeed never thought deeply about this issue. At this moment, he could not help but be attracted by He Yuzhu's words and waited for him to continue.

When Liu Si heard the hidden meaning in He Yuzhu's words, he was full of curiosity. He looked at He Yuzhu with burning eyes and asked anxiously: "Brother Yuzhu, why do you say that? Is this what you mean, or..." Liu Si did not finish his words, and his eyes revealed a look of exploration.

He Yuzhu tilted his head slightly, glanced at his men beside him, and then remained silent. His action made Liu Si understand instantly.

Liu Si immediately understood that there was a hidden secret in He Yuzhu's words that was not convenient for others to hear, so he raised his hand and waved, and said to the men around him: "You all go down first, don't disturb us if there is nothing important." The men took the order and withdrew one after another, leaving only He Yuzhu and Liu Si in the room.

After his men had left, He Yuzhu turned around, looked at Liu Si, and slowly expressed his thoughts: "Brother Liu Si, think about it, the friendship between us is like broken bones and connected tendons. But you also know that there have always been many contradictions within the demon clan, and there is mutual distrust between the various forces. If they knew that our Jiaolong clan and your Snake clan have such a close relationship, I'm afraid a lot of trouble would arise for no reason." He Yuzhu frowned slightly, with a worry on his face.

After listening to He Yuzhu's words, Liu Si's mind suddenly became clear, and he couldn't help but nodded in agreement: "Brother Yuzhu, you are absolutely right. The disputes within the demon clan have always been complicated. If they are taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives, both of our clans may not have peace. In your opinion, we should just watch the infighting among the human race for the time being and reap the benefits. But when the time comes, I hope Brother Yuzhu can say a few good words for me in front of the leader of the Jiaolong clan." Liu Si's face was full of smiles, and his eyes were full of expectations.

He Yuzhu was secretly happy. He didn't expect Liu Si to be so naive. He easily believed what he had just made up. However, He Yuzhu didn't know that the Jiaolong clan had always been arrogant and looked down on the Snake clan. The relationship between the two clans had always been quite cold. But after hearing what He Yuzhu said today, Liu Si felt that there seemed to be a secret between the two clans, and he couldn't help but have other thoughts in his mind.

He Yuzhu followed behind Liu Si, and as he walked, he slightly turned sideways and said in a low voice to the invisible Old Four beside him: "Remember the terrain here, don't miss any passage or corner, we will have to come back to rescue people later, do you understand?" He Yuzhu looked serious, with a hint of nervousness in his eyes.

The fourth brother nodded and responded softly: "Master, don't worry, I'm following you closely. I'm sure I can remember the terrain clearly." Although the fourth brother's voice was soft, his tone was very firm.

He Yuzhu listened and nodded slightly. He knew that he was not good at remembering the terrain. If he tried to remember it by himself, he would be confused. If he missed the important task of saving people, it would be troublesome.

Liu Si noticed that He Yuzhu's pace slowed down a bit, so he turned around and looked at him, asking with concern: "Brother Yuzhu, why don't you walk anymore? Are you tired? If you are tired, let's take a rest."

He Yuzhu quickly waved his hands and said, "That's not the case. I just didn't expect that you could build such a large-scale underground city. The scale of this project is truly amazing." He Yuzhu raised his head and looked around, with a hint of amazement in his eyes.

Liu Si showed a proud smile on his face, and said to He Yuzhu excitedly: "This is all thanks to the monsters of the rat clan! You don't know, they are so good at digging holes. It only took a few days to open these underground passages to make it what it is now. I have to say, they are really gifted in this aspect."

He Yuzhu was moved when he heard this. He knew that although the demon tribes had many conflicts and had been at odds for a long time, once they really worked together, they would be tough opponents. After all, each demon tribe had its own unique and outstanding abilities. If they could be integrated, the power they could exert should not be underestimated.

Afterwards, He Yuzhu followed Liu Si and walked towards the place where the human cultivators were imprisoned. As soon as they reached the entrance of a passage, several monsters suddenly appeared. The leading monster saw Liu Si and was slightly stunned. Then he said respectfully: "Isn't this Lord Liu? How did you find time to come here?"

Liu Si coughed lightly and said in a pretentious manner, "I came here to take a look and see if there is anything interesting."

He Yuzhu stood aside and didn't think much about it. After all, he was full of demonic energy at the moment, and his disguise was very realistic. Even Liu Si didn't notice anything unusual. He felt that the demons in front of him should have no way to see through his identity.

However, what He Yuzhu didn't expect was that one of the monsters twitched its nose slightly when it approached them, sniffed carefully, and then looked back and forth between Liu Si and He Yuzhu, feeling that something was wrong with He Yuzhu's aura, which didn't seem to match that of their monster clan. The monster frowned and was about to speak out his doubts.

Seeing this, Liu Si was immediately displeased, thinking that these demons had made him lose face in front of Mr. Yuzhu. His face darkened, and he glared at them, scolding, "What do you want to do? You even dare to block my way. Are you tired of living?"

The demons turned pale with fear after hearing Liu Si's roar. They thought Liu Si had something important to do, so they didn't dare to say anything more and could only let Liu Si and He Yuzhu go.

After Liu Si and the others walked away, a pig demon behind them couldn't help but complain to the suspicious wolf demon: "Are you crazy? You even dare to block Lord Liu's way. If you want to die, don't implicate us!"

The wolf demon shook his head helplessly and whispered, "I really smelled a human scent, so I felt strange. I don't know if I should say it out loud."

The pig demon shook his head in disdain and said, "Are you stupid? Lord Liu kills countless people every day. Isn't it normal for him to have some human smell? You are making a fuss here. If you offend Lord Liu, not to mention yourself, even your family will not dare to protect you."
