Chapter 296: Xiaojia Village
The sky soon darkened, and the sunset in the west set off the beautiful Xiaojia Village with red glow all over the place, making the beautiful Xiaojia Village in situ even more moving and intoxicating.
Leng Manyan and Long Xiaofeng slowly flew in the sky, looking down at the beautiful scenery on the ground, the two of them really enjoyed it, Leng Manyan blushed excitedly, and sighed, "What a beautiful scenery!" Although it is not as good as a paradise like the Holy Land, it can be regarded as a blessed land in the world, and it is no wonder that the old ghost of the Protector would rather come here for the rest of his life than go back to be an official. ”
"Yes! If I weren't the emperor, then I would bring you and Xian'er to live here and live the life of a fairy couple. Long Xiaofeng also sighed selflessly.
However, his sigh made Leng Manyan's good mood gloomy all of a sudden.
Leng Manyan's little face froze, and he said coldly in Long Xiaofeng's ear, "You really enjoy it!" You always want to hug left and right, right? Can't forget your fairy? ”
"Huh! If you think too much, let's hurry up! Before it gets completely dark, we must rush to Xiaojia Village for the night. Long Xiaofeng laughed embarrassedly twice and quickly changed the topic.
After speaking, he sped up and flew away looking for the bright light of the stars in front of him.
Leng Manyan followed behind him with a straight face, and the two of them flew forward one after the other for a small half of the time, and finally arrived at the sky above the beautiful mountain village Xiaojia Village before nightfall, and the two had to slowly descend to the outside of Xiaojia Village in order not to cause a commotion, and walked all the way towards Xiaojia Village.
The two walked outside the tall village gate of Xiaojia Village, and an old man with white hair was walking out of the village gate with a crutch.
Leng Manyan hurriedly saluted the old man politely, and asked, "Old man, is this Xiaojia Village?" ”
"Are you blind? There are three big characters written in Xiaojia Village on this gate, can't you see it clearly? Ask while knowing the answer. Leng Manyan asked such a question, but the old man was depressed, and the old man opened his mouth to scold.
Leng Manyan smiled embarrassedly with a smile on his face, and said in his heart, this old bastard is really incomprehensible, this beauty is still so faceless when she talks, don't ask you if this is Xiaojia Village, is it difficult to ask when you will enter the soil for peace?
was angry in his heart, Leng Manyan stood there embarrassed and speechless, and his deflated appearance was very cute.
Long Xiaofeng, who was standing on the side, saw that Leng Manyan was suffocated, he covered his mouth and laughed for a while, before he stepped forward and asked the old man directly, "Don't be angry, Xian Nei is not very familiar with this place when he first arrives, so I have this question, I don't know where the old man knows where the protector is, the two of us are here to find the protector, please ask the old man to take us to meet the protector." ”
"Protector?" The old man frowned suspiciously.
After a question, the old man suddenly came to his senses and understood that these two people were here to find Xiao Yong's father, but when he understood it, the expression on the old man's face was a little ugly, and before the two of them could answer, the old man replied with a stiff face, "That old bastard is dead, let's go!" It's late. ”
"Huh? Is the Lord Protector dead? Didn't his son say that he was still hunting and fishing in the mountains of the village? How could it be dead? Grandpa, you're not kidding us, are you? Long Xiaofeng was startled and hurriedly asked.
"The old man doesn't know, you have to find yourself in the village, don't be that old bastard in front of the old man." The old man replied angrily, and went out of the village on crutches, ignoring Leng Manyan and Long Xiaofeng, and leaving them outside the village as if they were no one.
It wasn't until the old man's back disappeared into the woods outside the village that Leng Manyan turned his head to look at Long Xiaofeng, and said helplessly, "It seems that the reputation of the Protector in the village is not good!" ”
"Yes, he seems to have offended the old gentleman." Long Xiaofeng nodded noncommittally.
"So what do we do now?" Leng Manyan asked with a smile.
Long Xiaofeng looked up at the village gate for a while, and saw that the houses in the village gate were staggered and scattered with each other and distributed quite regularly, he couldn't help scratching his head and said, "Let's go to the village!" When you enter the village, ask someone again! ”
"Hmmm! That's it. Leng Manyan spread his hands.
The two made a decision and walked towards the village.
But what the two of them didn't expect was that as soon as the two of them entered the village gate and walked inside, a middle-aged man led more than a dozen young and middle-aged villagers of Xiaojia Village, carrying a shiny long knife in his hand, and blocked Leng Manyan and Long Xiaofeng outside the village, and shouted to the two, "Who are you, why did you break into my Xiaojia Village?" ”
"In Xialong Xiaofeng, this is my wife Leng Manyan, the two of us came to Xiaojia Village this time under the guidance of Xiao Yong, and came to find his father to protect the country, you see, this is the silver taels and clothes that Xiao Yong entrusted us to send to his father." Long Xiaofeng explained to the middle-aged man as he took out the silver taels and clothes that Xiao Yongtuo and the two of them brought.
After the middle-aged man and the people behind him looked at it a few times, he put down the long knife in his hand.
Walking in front of the two, the middle-aged man hugged his fists at the two of them and said to the two, "I am Xiao Shan, the head of Xiaojia Village, they are the Xiao family members of our Xiaojia Village Guard, the two are Xiao Yong's friends, that is our Xiaojia Village's friends, please come with me." ”
"Village Chief Xie." Leng Manyan and Long Xiaofeng responded in unison, clasping their fists and thanking each other.
"You're welcome, please." Xiao Shan politely stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation to the two, and then he ordered the Xiao family behind him to leave, and he took Leng Manyan and Long Xiaofeng to the Xiao family village.
The three of them walked for a while in Xiaojia Village and stopped between a relatively tall house in the center of the village.
As soon as Leng Manyan and Long Xiaofeng stood in front of the tall house, their brows immediately furrowed, the two of them were non-combatants, and their sense of energy was very clear, that is, the tall ancient mansion in Xiaojia Village in front of them had been exuding a quaint energy breath, and this energy breath was extremely powerful, which made Leng Manyan and Long Xiaofeng a little frightened.
Xiao Shan, who was walking in front, saw the two of them standing there motionless, he also stopped, turned to look at the two of them and asked, "Why don't you two leave?" ”
"Village Chief Xiaoshan, isn't your ancient mansion simple?" Leng Manyan asked Xiao Shan tentatively.
Xiao Shan patted his chest proudly, and said happily, "That's natural, this ancient house has been standing in Xiaojia Village for a hundred years, and it was built by the king of war a hundred years ago of my Xiao family, and the Xiao family has been living here, guarding this ancient house and enjoying the power of the blood of the king of war, so the people of my Xiao family are all brave, and Xiao Yong is the most outstanding person in this generation." ”
"The Xiao clan also has the power of blood inheritance?" Leng Manyan exclaimed.
Long Xiaofeng's eyes widened and he was dumbfounded.
Before, the two of them had only heard from the bitter Taoist that the royal family of the Ji family of the Purple Confusion Country had the power of blood inheritance, which was a very simple and sacred power, which should not be desecrated, Leng Manyan originally thought that the only family on this continent with the power of blood inheritance was the Ji family, or he didn't expect that in such a small mountain village, he also had the power of blood inheritance.
Moreover, this Xiaojia Village also had a war king a hundred years ago, this fact made Leng Manyan and Long Xiaofeng a little surprised, and the two of them now want to figure out what kind of power this so-called blood inheritance power is, what kind of power is it, what is mysterious and magical about it?
Xiao Shan nodded noncommittally and said to the two, "Of course, our Xiao clan was also a great family on the continent a hundred years ago, not inferior to the Dragon Clan, the Ji Clan, the Feng Clan and other big clans, but since the war kings on this continent have quietly disappeared for some reason, our Xiao clan has also declined like other ancient races." ”
"Oh! I see! Leng Manyan nodded clearly, and remembered all what Xiao Shan said.
The three of them stood outside the tall ancient mansion of the Xiao clan and talked for a while, and Xiao Shan said to the two, "It's getting late now, you two are guests, so come to me for a night's rest, and I'll take the two of you into the mountain early tomorrow morning to find the protector of the country." ”
"The Lord Protector isn't dead, is he?" Leng Manyan thought of the old man she had just met outside the village, so she blurted out a question.
"Huh?" Xiao Shan let out a surprised voice.
Leng Manyan waved his hand and explained to Xiao Shan, "Oh! Don't get me wrong, the village chief of Xiaoshan, I didn't curse the protector, but I met an old man outside the village just now, and he said that the protector died, so ......"
"You said the Great Elder! He and the Protector have always been at odds, the two often quarrel, we are used to it, what he said, you two don't have to take it to heart, the Protector is still alive and well, still hunting and fishing in the mountains, often let our villagers go to take his fish and prey down to share the food, very popular with everyone. Xiao Shan told Leng Manyan about the grievances between the Protector and the great elder and old man just now.
When Leng Manyan heard this, his heart was relieved.
It's hard to find that the old man wants to curse the prince like this, and after a long time, the two are still rivals, so it is not unusual for him to say that, and automatically leave the great elder behind, Leng Manyan and the two of them followed Xiao Shan after arguing with Xiao Shanhan, and the three of them entered the ancient mansion together.
After entering, feeling the baptism of this ancient power in the ancient mansion, Leng Manyan and Long Xiaofeng were even more secretly frightened in their hearts, and the two even made a decision in their hearts, when they saw the Protector tomorrow, the two of them must ask about this blood succession.
At this time, the two of them had already put aside their previous intentions, and they were eager to understand about this blood succession first.
