Chapter 43: The Notice of the Elders' Council
In less than three moments, the scorching sun was still so hot at this time, and the sound of cicadas in the dense forest was still there. Not far from the gate of the Scourge Clan, a short figure was stretched out under the scorching sun of the thief sky.
The guard rubbed his eyes, at first he thought it was just a foreign clan elder who had come to worship the patriarch, but the figure that was getting closer and closer had a familiar smell no matter how he looked at it.
"Yes...... It's Mu Chen who has come back, I'll go and inform the elder of the Tang clan!" One of them said, and ran towards the tribe.
Seeing that Mu Chen was getting closer and closer, and when he was only a few dozen steps away from the clan gate, the remaining guards stepped forward and said, "Young Master Mu Chen, the clan elder has an order, you steal the tribal treasure, please restrain your hands." Don't embarrass us. ”
Mu Chen shrugged his shoulders slightly, and said with a smile: "The clan elder has an order? Which clan elder gave the order? said that I stole the treasure of the clan? When did my Mu family's private things become the treasures of the tribe?"
"Young Master Mu Chen, don't be obsessed, you injured Young Master Lian Ba who came to worship in the patriarch's mourning hall in front of the spirit, and then fed the strong acacia powder in public, and also bewitched the people to spread the scandal of Young Master Lian Ba in the clan, and then stole the treasure of the clan. The clan elders have already issued a document on this matter, so you should see it yourself. After the guard finished speaking, he tore off a piece of tissue paper from the tribal gate, on which a hundred words were written, and threw it to Mu Chen.
"Oh? There is actually the old seal of the Xun clan on it? What a group of white-eyed wolves, my father has just disappeared, and he is ready to conspire to charge me, and then logically take my Mu's things into his own pocket? What a good calculation......" Mu Chen smiled, but did not show the slightest anger.
"Brush-brush-" After Mu Chen finished speaking, he gently tore the tissue paper in his hand slowly until it was broken to the size of a fingernail, and lifted it into the air, and the shredded paper that turned into thousands of copies floated towards the gate of the clan like snow in June.
Mu Chen took a step forward, and several guards suddenly seemed to be facing a great enemy. They are all just cultivators of the I Ching Realm, and Mu Chen heard that they are suspected to have cultivated to the Qi Realm. A few people joined forces, but they were afraid that they wouldn't be able to stop it for long.
"What's the matter, how many clan brothers want to stop me?" Mu Chen raised his eyebrows and took a few steps forward.
"Young Master Mu Chen, don't make it difficult for me to wait. One of them spoke.
"What if I embarrass you?" Mu Chen pouted disdainfully as he walked towards the clan gate.
Seeing that Mu Chen finally walked into the clan, these guards looked at his departing back and still didn't dare to make a move.
After a while, the guards who had gone to report before came to the gate of the tribe with the elder of the Tang clan and his entourage, and the old man of the Tang clan asked with a dark face, "Where are the people?"
"I didn't ...... Didn't stop. Clan elders forgive their sins!" several guards bowed on their knees.
"A group of useless waste, you can't stop a child, which direction are you going?" the Tang clan elder Bai glanced at a few people and asked.
"To...... Where to go...... Over there...... "The guards pointed in one direction at the same time.
"Give the order, Mu Chen has returned to the tribe, search him out for me!" the elder of the Tang clan commanded.
Just when the elder of the Tang clan ordered the arrest of Mu Chen, he had already arrived at the gate of the old man's mansion at this time. Although the paper was printed with the seal of the old man of the Xun clan, but on that day, he returned to the tribe with Gu Ling, who was seriously injured and died, and put the Tianjian fangs back to the ancestral hall of the clan to continue to recuperate, Mu Chen can conclude that the character of the old man of the Xun clan should not be bad.
Even if the guess is wrong, he has a backhand.
Thinking of this, the corners of Mu Chen's mouth rose slightly, and the buckle of the gate was lightly buckled.
It was the housekeeper of the old mansion of the Xun clan who opened the door, but he was not much surprised to see Mu Chen, and after inviting Mu Chen in, he closed the door and said, "The clan elder is waiting for you in the study." ”
When Mu Chen heard this, the conjecture in his heart was a little firmer, and he followed the housekeeper towards the study.
"Meet the elders of the Xun clan. Mu Chen entered the study and bowed.
"Xiao Chen is here, sit down. The old man of the Xun clan smiled and motioned for Mu Chen to sit down and speak.
"The clan elder won't arrest me? Mu Chen also smiled like the old man of the Xun clan.
"Little guy, big ghost. It's not like you at all. The patriarch and the two clan elders have fallen, and your Abba has disappeared again, and there are many people who covet the position of the patriarch at this time. And now the clan elders will no longer be a word. Let's talk about it, what's going on today?" After the old man finished speaking, he drank all the tea in the cup.
When Chen heard this, he erased the part that was stiffened and told the rest of the story one by one.
The old man of the Xun clan frowned, this situation was more serious than he imagined.
"can buy more than a dozen people to commit perjury, and on weekdays, I really underestimate this Tang clan is old. It's just that the patriarch just passed away and befriended a foreign patriarch who had just entered the transformation realm, and he was really a little dizzy. Xiao Chen, can you borrow your Heavenly Zombie Fangs for use?"
"Poof-" The seven-inch-long Heavenly Zombie Fang was thrown onto the desk of the Xun clan elder like garbage by Mu Chen.
The old man of the Xun clan twitched slightly, his heart hurt for a while, and he scolded softly: "Stinky boy, it's really a tyrannical thing......
"Hehe, clan elder, you have accepted my things, but you have to make decisions for me. That Lian Sheng father and son are really not good things, not only humiliating Grandpa Gu Ling in front of the spirit, but also despising my calamity clan......"
"Okay, stinky boy, you said that your father is such an honest man, how could he give birth to you such a slippery boy. The elder of the Xun clan shook his head, scolded with a smile, and then restrained his smile and continued, "It's just that if you go outside, you must first settle inside, come here, and invite all the clan elders in the tribe in the name of my acting patriarch, I have something important to discuss." ”
A quarter of an hour later, in the study of the old man of the Xun clan, except for the elder surnamed Tang, the rest of the clan elders had already sat down one after another, and they were a little surprised to see Mu Chen present, but there was not much, but what they planned in their hearts was unknown.
The Tang clan was the last to enter the door, and when he saw Mu Chen, he smiled and said to the Xun clan elder: "I said why can't Mu Chen be found in all the clans, it turned out to be in the study of the Xun clan elder, no wonder." ”
The elder of the Xun clan did not answer, but just held the teacup and drank the tea by himself.
At this time, one of the clan elders said, "I wonder what the Xun clan elders are calling me to wait for?"
"It's not a big deal, I just want you to hear Mu Chen's explanation. The old man of the Xun clan lowered his head, tasted the fragrance of tea, and said without even raising his head.
"Didn't this matter have been unanimously approved by the clan elders two hours ago? there is still the clan elder seal of the Xun clan elder on the notice!" the Tang clan elder gave the two clan elders beside him a wink, and hurriedly said.
"Yes, yes, how can it be such a child's play through the unanimous agreement of the clan elders. ”
"You only remember the identity of my clan elder, have you forgotten that the Guling patriarch appointed me as the acting patriarch when he was dying, and waited for the Muye clan elder to come back before handing over the patriarch's seal to him. At that time, you were all there, why should I veto this notice as the acting patriarch?"
"The old man of the Muye clan is missing, the position of the patriarch needs to be considered in the long run, is it possible that the old man of the Xun clan wants to sit on the throne of the patriarch?"
"The Scourge Fighting Clan has no leader, and it needs a righteous person to support the stage, is it possible to befriend the foreigners like some people?"
