Chapter 287 You Are the Elder
In the evening, twelve hours had passed since the sunset plan.
"Be careful, hold steady!"
The area around the Lao Ye Temple on the shore of Poyang Lake is extremely lively, and the dense crowd of humanoid warriors and wild demons of the two tribes are busy carrying down a huge emperor house tree along the mountain road, because the mountain road is not flat, the person who carries the tree looks extremely clumsy.
When everyone finally lifted the tree to the lake, they pointed the huge red fruit in the direction of the lake, and after beating the fruit, the water of the white flower spurted out of the fruit.
Pero, Tabu, Hi Lang, Na Vy, and the last dozen or so humanoid warriors stood by the lake, their faces mixed.
Xi Lang pointed to the water that spewed out of the fruit and said: "Look, two elders, this is the third emperor house tree that we have pulled out, and a lot of water can be released from each fruit, as long as we find all the remaining more than ninety emperor house trees around Poyang Lake to knock out the fruit, our lake water can be restored to at least half of the height of the past." ”
Pei Ruo looked at the fruit and said with interest: "Although the fruit of this emperor house tree is large, I don't know how it can hold so much water, but it really opened my eyes to the old man." ”
"So, this world is very interesting, and it is a waste of time for us to stay under this lake for many years." After saying proudly, Xilang said to Laby again, "Alright, let's go find the next Emperor House Tree." ”
"Hehe, young man, don't be in a hurry." Tabu stepped forward and patted Xilang on the shoulder, and said leisurely, "It's getting late at this time, and it doesn't matter if we two old guys do, but the soldiers have worked hard for a day and a night, and they are already exhausted, so let's let everyone rest for a night, and it's not too late to look for it tomorrow." Anyway, we have time, even if we get three or five trees a day, it won't take many days to complete it. Then he turned to Pero, "What do you say? Old man. ”
Pei Ruo nodded and said, "Anyway, I'm used to not calling the shots, so I'll just listen to you." ”
The water of Poyang Lake has not been drained, but it has risen a little at this time, the width and depth are enough for all the clansmen to rest, and Xilang himself is also tired, and he is not polite, so he sighed and said: "Okay, then let's bury the fallen soldiers first." ”
So, in the solemn expressions of everyone, a group of wild demons began to carry the bodies of the fallen soldiers and sent them back to the lake one by one.
While carrying Martha's body, Pero suddenly couldn't help it, stopped the demon's footsteps, and the old man burst into tears, and muttered to the body, "Madame, Madame...... Although when you were alive, I really don't know how many times, cursed in my heart that you would drive the crane west as soon as possible and stop controlling me, but ...... But I won't hear from you again...... How lonely it will be......"
Xilang also said sadly: "Although Grandma is not my biological mother, she does treat me and all the young people like her own son. She loves us too much, for fear that one will not be careful,

We will make the mistakes of the world because we are naughty. How I wished that in her lifetime, I could convince her and tell her that we would take care of ourselves and let her learn to let go, but I didn't expect her to let go in this way......"
"Goodbye, madam, you should be reincarnated earlier, don't wait for me...... Anyway, in the next life, I won't marry you again......" As she spoke, Pero burst into tears, covered her face and turned her head, gesturing to the demon to return Martha's body to the lake.
When carrying Getig's body, Tabu also stopped the demon's footsteps, bowed solemnly to Getig, was silent for a long time, and then said to Xilang: "Xilang, in the future, the post of general will be handed over to you." You must practice diligently and strive to surpass Getig's attainments as soon as possible! ”
"Elder Tabu, are you kidding?" Xi Lang waved his hand in a panic and said, "I'm a Turtle Clan, how can I be the general of your Turtle Clan?" ”
Tabu said earnestly: "Where else is the turtle clan and the turtle tribe? Today's war has halved the population of our two races, and if we divide each other again, I am afraid that the survival of the race will be unsustainable. Alas, this catastrophe also made me understand how important unity is, as long as we have always existed as two ethnic groups, even if nothing happens to this generation and the next generation, hundreds of years later, maybe they will be opposed again for some inexplicable reasons. Therefore, I will be the master today, in Poyang Lake, there can only be one general to lead the two clansmen in the future, and I deliberately chose you people of the Dang tribe to take on this important task, which shows that I made this choice for the sake of public spirit! After speaking, he said to Peiruo: "Old man, what do you think of my proposal?" ”
Pero replied absentmindedly, "Elder Tabu has the final say. ”
Tabu smiled and said, "I really can't have the final say on this matter." I know that in your Ring, it was your wife who used to give orders, but here we have cedered this honor to the General. This choice may lead to the death of our old things. Don't always immerse yourself in the shadows of the past, now that you're the decision-maker of the Dragon's Clan, just show me the masculine once. ”
Pei Ruo responded: "Don't talk about the position of the general, even if the position of the elder is given to the young man, what's the matter?" In today's battle, you and I didn't play any role, I figured it out from the moment my curse was lifted, these offspring, well-informed, vibrant, brave and strategic, it's time to completely hand over the fate of Poyang Lake to them, isn't it? ”
Hearing this, Xi Lang was even more frightened and said, "Elder Peiruo, what you said is too exaggerated, right?" I can still consider the position of the general, but the position of the elder is determined by the ancestors, and this can only be held by a person of high moral integrity! ”
Unexpectedly, on this issue, Tabu also stood on Peruo's side, and said even more happily: "Hey, Peruo, you really said what I wanted to say." If you want me to say, I am willing to give up this position as an elder. Alas, it's a shame to say
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
I'm ashamed, we two old guys, today we only know that the twelve o'clock statement turned out to be apocryphal, it seems that what the ancestor said may not be so correct. Moreover, after living in Poyang Lake for hundreds of years, I only know today that the maelstrom was originally born by the qi of killing, and you dragon clan also hated Chen Youliang...... Haha, occlusion, ignorance! The two of us have been bored at the bottom of the lake for most of our lives, and while we are still able to walk, we should also go out to travel and see this vast world......" After speaking, he turned to Xilang and said: "Xilang, if it is not broken, it will not be able to stand, in the future, you will be the elder of the two clans!" ”
"But, but, I have to ask the opinions of the other soldiers!" Xi Lang suddenly became even more frightened, and asked for help, "Brothers and sisters, please persuade the two elders quickly!" ”
No, many humanoid warriors did not echo this proposal, but a male warrior smiled sincerely: "Xilang, if you hadn't blocked the dryad outside the gate, if you hadn't come up with the tactic of flooding Chongshi City, we would have been wiped out in this battle." Behold, this position of elder, you are here, and we are all convinced! ”
Someone else chimed in: "Yes, yes, Xilang, you must not live up to the kindness of the two elders!" ”
Even Laby persuaded: "Xilang, I also agree with their point of view, now that Lady Martha and General Getig are gone, and the two elders plan to enjoy the blessings, our two clans are at the crossroads of fate, and someone must lead the two clans, so you might as well obey your fate." ”
Xilang showed a bitter face, and hurriedly passed on the target and said: "If you want to talk about the plan to flood Chongshi City, but you Na Wei came up with it, I can't run away, and you can't run away!" ”
Laby said innocently: "However, it was you who got rid of that crying owl first and rescued me, and it was you who first interrupted a giant tree diagonally and inspired me, so I have this postscript." After speaking, the thief smiled and said, "Besides, who said I want to run?" No matter who you are in the future, I will be your helper. ”
Xilang still stubbornly said: "But, it's ......"
"Huh." Tabu chuckled, "Xilang, I know what you're worried about, you're thinking, if you become an elder of the two clans and are entangled in official duties, you won't have time to take your beloved Laby to see this world, right?" Don't worry, we have tossed the past during this time, and it will be stable in the future, where can there be so many bad things for you to worry about? ”
"Xilang, while the bones of General Getieg are not cold, you will carry this banner in front of him! Don't forget, when he was dying, he smiled and pulled our hands together! Don't you understand the general's intentions? Laby said, gently pulling Xilang's hand.
"Alas, okay, okay, then I have to be respectful than obey." After Xilang finished speaking, he took Laby's hand tightly and bowed to Getig's body together.
Then, in the solemn expressions of everyone, the peaceful body of the former general was slowly pushed into the lake.
