"Cousin, you want to be the new patriarch, and I am supporting you with both hands. But there is a question have you ever thought about, in such a long history, there must be many people like us who think that the existence of witches is very inhumane, but why is there no record of the abolition of this rule in the history of the clan? Ji Zi'an stared at Ji Ziran, who was already overwhelmed by emotion, with a worried face, and said reasonably.

"Of course, I have thought about what you said. However, history can only represent the past, and it does not mean that there will be no in the past, and it does not mean that there will not be in the future. I, Ji Ziran, am now going to become the first person in the history of the Wu Clan, and I will abolish the rules of the Wu Witch from the Wu Clan no matter what. Let these seemingly beautiful but poor women live the lives of ordinary people. Ji Ziran said with a firm face.

But soon, the two young talents knew why the witch would be so valued in the clan for thousands of years, under the oppression of such inhuman clan rules, there were still women who were proud to be destined to be witches, and the patriarch of the clan had never proposed to abolish or change any of the clan rules related to shrine maidens.

In the Wu Clan, every twenty years, the best juniors who have been recognized by the elders of the clan will compete with each other, and after the competition is over, two people who have performed best in all aspects of the competition will be selected, and then they will be sent to the Wu Clan's forbidden land for half a year of retreat.

However, the successive patriarchs of the Wu clan are all men, and no one is allowed to enter the forbidden land except for the patriarch candidate and the witch. Therefore, if a woman wins, these women can choose to continue their study of witchcraft with an elder to inherit the mantle according to their wishes, or choose a man they think is the best among the top juniors to be their future husband. Of course, the premise is that the elders of the clan think that the two are compatible with each other.

"Ji Gongzi, I have some questions. Hearing this, Hua Chengcheng couldn't help but interrupt Ji Zi'an, she really had a lot of doubts in her heart that needed to be answered immediately.

"What's the doubt?" Ji Zi'an asked with a smile, not seeming to think that painting was rude. He knew in his heart that as long as he was a normal person, he would inevitably have doubts when he heard these things he said.

"Ji Gongzi just said that those of the Wu clan who are valued and cultivated by the family can't make their own decisions about their marriage, which I can understand, after all, marriage is the order of the parents. But you also said that most of the witchcraft is related to people's seven emotions and six desires, so in other words, can I understand that being with a person who shares my heart in the past is more helpful to understand the subtlety of witchcraft?"

"That's nature. In fact, in the Wu clan, husband and wife complement each other, and are both family members and rivals. Although the women of the Wu tribe are not qualified to serve as the patriarch, it does not mean that they have a low status, on the contrary, the women's thoughts and emotions are more delicate and unpredictable, and they will often make some new tricks to their husbands due to emotional changes when they are having fun in bed, so that these men of the Wu tribe are unable to guard against it. It can be said that while mentioning the high witchcraft of both parties, it can also be regarded as adding some fun between husband and wife. Ji Zi'an said with a smile.

"That's interesting, so you Wu people should be very harmonious, at least ...... It won't be like in the world, there will be three wives and four concubines, right?" asked Hua Chengcheng with some longing.

"That's not necessarily, if there are strong women and weak men in a family, naturally that kind of situation will not occur. But if the man is strong and the woman is weak, three wives and four concubines are inevitable. How many men in this world dare to say that they don't yearn for a life where they wake up to the power of the world and are drunk and lying on the knees of beautiful women?" Ji Zi'an raised the corners of his mouth, as if he was laughing at the simplicity of this woman in front of him.

Hua Chengcheng sighed in disappointment, she couldn't help but think of Cang Wunian, and wondered if one day after he reshaped his soul, he would also yearn for that kind of life with a group of wives and concubines.

"Well, when I didn't ask. Let's go back to the previous question. Hua Chengcheng lowered his eyes, and continued: "Since two people want to have the same heart, but the marriage is not up to their own decisions, wouldn't it be a hard work to put two people who originally had no feelings together?"

"Hahahaha......" Hearing this, Ji Zi'an actually laughed.

Hua Chengcheng stared at him in confusion, "Did I say something wrong?"

Looking at the confused painting Allure, Ji Zi'an couldn't help but laugh for a while, and then explained slowly: "You are not wrong, according to the understanding of ordinary people, the elders arrange marriages for the juniors, and they will always choose what they think is the best and most suitable." But if the juniors don't look at each other correctly, they will inevitably live up to the painstaking arrangements of the elders. ”

"In that case, why are you laughing so much?" asked Hua Chengcheng with some dissatisfaction, pouting.

"Fang Cai is Ji Mou's rudeness, don't be surprised by the girl in Allure. Ji Zi'an straightened his face, made a gesture at the painting, and then said: "Actually, I will laugh because this kind of thing is not a problem for me and the Wu clan at all. ”

"What's the meaning of this?" the painting Allure was even more puzzled.

"Because the people of the Wu clan don't have to worry about their own emotional problems at all, if the two sides look at each other right after becoming a parent, if they don't see each other right, a 'lovesick Gu' can make them love each other and respect each other. Of course, the premise of using Acacia Gu is that the hearts of both men and women must be blank and clean, if one of them already has other people in his heart, this Gu will not be able to produce its desired effect. Ji Zi'an explained.

Hua Chengcheng couldn't help but roll his eyes, it turned out that the degree of control of witchcraft over people's seven emotions and six desires had reached such an outrageous level, and two people who were obviously emotionless could also fall in love with each other because of those unbelievable Gu poisons.

"What if you're like your cousin, you have that girl in mind, but you have someone else in your family looking for him?" asked Hua Chengcheng.

"Since there are Gu that can make people emotional, there are naturally Gu that can make people forgetful. As long as the ability of the person who is under the Gu is stronger than that of the person who is in the Gu for a day, then this person will not think of the other people he has loved deeply for a day. Ji Zi'an said lightly.

The complexion of the painting Allure couldn't help but change, although Ji Zi'an's tone was indifferent when she said this, but somehow, she always felt that there seemed to be a deep sadness hidden behind his indifference, maybe it was because he was a member of the Wu clan, and he had seen with his own eyes the power of this kind of Gu art that could make people forget their feelings.

"The magic of witchcraft is really strange and abnormal. Hua Chengcheng sighed, and then asked: "You said that there will be a new batch of witches every hundred years, but you witch people should also have a long lifespan, what should those former witches who have retired do?

"Hehe, then you'll have to listen to me and tell you slowly. Ji Zi'an said with a smile.

......

That year coincided with the 20-year clan competition, and Ji Zi'an, who didn't want to participate in the competition, finally went due to the pressure of his family, but he deliberately played abnormally during the competition, so in the end he missed the two places that went to the forbidden retreat. His patriarchal father was so angry with him that he was helpless after all.

However, Ji Ziran lived up to expectations and was selected as one of the best juniors of the year, and was sent to the forbidden land with another clan junjie.

Half a year passed quickly, and when he saw Ji Ziran again, Ji Zi'an found that he was full of spring breeze, looking immersed in happiness.

Ji Zi'an couldn't help but ask curiously, "Cousin, have you learned some lost witchcraft in that forbidden land? ”

Who knew that Ji Ziran deliberately sold a pass, "There are already rules in the clan, and those who are qualified to go to the forbidden land for retreat are not allowed to tell others everything they have learned in the forbidden land after leaving the customs." Zi'an, as the son of the patriarch, don't you want to take the lead in breaking this rule?"

Ji Zi'an rolled his eyes when he heard this, "If I really want to have the heart to learn those so-called secret techniques, I will go myself, do I still need to steal a teacher from you?" cousin, you have a heart to scare me." ”

Ji Ziran laughed and patted him on the shoulder, "You and my brothers haven't seen each other for more than half a year, let's go, go to Gusongju on South Street to have a drink, and talk while drinking." ”

The two went to Honsongju together, ordered a few side dishes, asked for two jars of the best wine, and found a no-man's corner and sat down.

"I said cousin, it's been more than half a month since you came out of the customs, let's finally meet today, and you plan to send me away with these two sips of wine and a few small dishes?" Ji Zi'an asked with disdain while eating the vegetables.

"Okay, I know that your kid is very curious, and he won't hide it from you as an elder brother. Guess who I met in the forbidden land?" Ji Ziran took a sip of wine and said with a smug expression.

Ji Zi'an pursed his lips, threw a peanut into his mouth, and said casually: "I just know how to play Gu, and I don't know how to tell fortunes, how do I know who you met in it." Could it be that I met your Li Ji?"

Originally, Ji Zi'an just habitually wanted to make a joke and tease Ji Ziran, so that he would look like he was about to forget his surname. But as soon as the words came out, he began to regret it, he didn't love anyone, but every time he saw Ji Ziran's sad appearance because of his thoughts of Li Ji, he felt indescribably distressed.

Just as Ji Zi'an was thinking about how to make up for his mistake of saying the wrong thing just now, Ji Ziran stared at him with a smile on his face, and finally nodded and whispered, "I really let your kid guess right." ”
