Chapter 619: Trespassing on the Forbidden Land
As time passed, the pain in his body seemed to have diminished a bit. With this feeling, Fang Chen no longer deliberately rejects the energy in the lake water into his body. The energy in the lake water was like a flood pouring straight into Fang Chen's body, warming the injured meridians and internal organs, Fang Chen felt a very comfortable feeling. So he began to greedily absorb the energy in the lake. Time passed minute by minute, Fang Chen absorbed the energy in the lake selflessly, and as the energy passed, the azure lake gradually faded its original color and became clear. The lake water no longer seemed to be able to bear the weight of Fang Chen, Fang Chen directly submerged into the lake, at this time Fang Chen's true qi had almost recovered, he used his true qi to protect his body, so as not to be choked by the water.
Fang Chen entered the selfless cultivation realm, but he didn't know that a long time had passed, but he didn't know that because he hadn't found Fang Chen for a few days, he had already turned into a pot of porridge.
In the ancestral hall, the patriarch sat majestically in the middle, and Cen Ruoxi knelt in the middle, drooping his head without saying a word. Cen Ruoxi's grandfather was pacing anxiously around on the side, like an ant on a hot pot.
"Cen Ruoxi, do you know what the crime of trespassing on the forbidden land in the back mountain is?" The patriarch was majestic and sad.
"Capital offense." Cen Ruoxi is neither humble nor arrogant.
The patriarch sighed: "Since you know the capital crime, you still insist on breaking in." ”
Cen Ruoxi said: "However, I have searched all the places in Chang'an Village, but the forbidden land in the back mountain. It's been seven days, seven whole days, I'm afraid that something will happen to Brother Tian, so I trespassed into the forbidden land in the back mountain. ”
Cen Ruoxi's grandfather hurriedly said on the side: "You stupid girl, you can commit a capital crime for someone you don't know." ”
Cen Ruoxi blushed and said, "Grandpa, didn't you say that saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter." Am I wrong for doing this? In fact, if it were someone else, she might not dare to do it. But after just a few days of contact with Fang Chen, she seemed to have a strange feeling in Fang Chen's heart.
"But, but, it depends on what happens." Cen Ruoxi's grandfather was incoherent. Seeing that his granddaughter was so stubborn, he had to kneel down and beg the patriarch: "Patriarch, if you are still young, spare her life." ”
This time the patriarch was also embarrassed, in fact, he didn't want to pursue Cen Ruoxi's death penalty in his heart. No one has ever been sentenced to death in Chang'an Village. Besides, Cen Ruoxi's grandfather is kind to the whole village, and the old man is left with such a granddaughter, if he is sentenced to death again, how can he live. But this is a rule set by the ancestors, and even he can't break it.
"Patriarch, please be merciful." There was a loud cheer outside the door. As soon as the patriarch heard this thunderous voice, he knew that it was Mu Yifeng again, and on weekdays, the patriarch heard this young man's voice quite loudly, but this time when he heard this voice, he felt quite cordial. Because the patriarch knew that Mu Yifeng must have come to help Cen Ruoxi intercede. His affection for Cen Ruoxi is closer than that of his brother.
The patriarch straightened up and said, "Hongbin, you came just in time, what do you say you should do about this matter?" ”
Mu Yifeng said loudly: "Rules are dead, people are alive, I think Cen Ruoxi's crime will not lead to death, but you can punish it a little." ”
"This ......" Patriarch Xiang Mu Yifeng said a convincing reason, but with just these two sentences, how to convince the public. Sure enough, as soon as the word patriarch came out, someone jumped out immediately, and the patriarch saw that this person was also big-headed, and it seemed that today's matter was really troublesome. This person is Mu Yifeng's father, and he is the law enforcement elder who assists him, Mu Yifeng is not afraid of anyone, so he scares him as a father.
"Bin'er, it's not your turn to speak in this matter." Mu Yifeng's father saw that his son was so big and small, so he couldn't help but scold.
Unexpectedly, Mu Yifeng, who had always been scared of him, was also like taking some wrong medicine at this moment, and straightened his neck and said: "Other things, the children will listen to you, but this matter is a matter of human life, I can't promise you." ”
"You, you, you ......" Mu Yifeng's father was so angry that his eyes rolled, but what else could he do besides rolling his eyes, now his son is five big and three thick, and he is the first warrior in Chang'an Village, so he can't spank him like he did when he was a child.
Mu Yifeng didn't care about his father's reaction, and said to the patriarch: "May I ask the patriarch, why did the old patriarch set this strange rule in the first place?" ”
The patriarch looked at the people present who were all people with heads and faces in Chang'an Village, so he said openly: "The old patriarch set this rule because of the "Bali Lake" in the back mountain, the "Bali Lake" is not an ordinary lake, it contains special energy, and the reason why the old patriarch's "Ghost Valley Lost Immortal" array can play a role is because it relies on this "Bali Lake" to continuously provide energy. Once the energy in this lake is overabsorbed, the "Ghost Valley Lost Immortal" array will fail. In order to protect this "Ghost Valley Lost Immortals" array, in order to maintain the peace of Chang'an Village, and to protect the safety of the clansmen, the old patriarch set this clan rule. ”
Mu Yifeng said: "In this case, why should the patriarch go against the old patriarch's original intention. Putting the lives of the whole village at risk. ”
The patriarch was stunned for a while, what did this Mu Yifeng want to say?
