The old peach tree, surrounded by dozens of people.

People seem to be angry.

However, they said that Gu Qiaoqiao didn't understand this, it should be the local dialect here, Ling Nan's Mandarin, he speaks it very well, it is said that his grandfather intentionally taught him, and he thought that he would also prepare for going out of the mountain in case the Xuanlong Box was opened in the future.

When the three of them appeared not far away, someone spotted them.

Everyone knew Ling Nan, and the villagers looked at them with friendly and curious eyes.

With a smile in their eyes, a few of them approached them.

They knew that Ling Nan had gone out to look for relatives at her grandmother's house.

So I was very happy to see Ling Nan come back.

But when I saw two beautiful girls next to me, I didn't understand, could it be that this kid married two daughters-in-law outside.

If that's really the case, this kid Ling Nan is a capable person.

When he arrived in this valley, Ling Nan was obviously like a fish in water, and as soon as he saw the expressions on the faces of those old ladies, he knew what was going on, and hurriedly introduced the identities of Gu Qiaoqiao and Xiaowen to them.

And at this time, the old patriarch also walked over with a cane, naturally there was a greeting for a while, and after knowing Gu Qiaoqiao's identity, he was very in awe.

Because the old patriarch knew that this girl named Gu Qiaoqiao should be his deceased old buddy, and she was also the mysterious Gu family that Ling Nan's grandfather said.

However, these have nothing to do with the Ling family.

It's all brought by Ling Nan's grandmother's lineage.

And Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly saw the scene five steps away from the old peach tree, which made her stunned.

There was a stake that seemed to be a sacrificial one, with a man tied to it, the kind of five-flowered tie, from top to bottom.

Then around the stake was piled up with dry firewood.

Then, on the side facing them, there were three jars of wine and an incense burner.

Finger-thick incense burns on the incense burner.

It was a young man with his head down, but his clothes were torn and there were wounds in the exposed area, apparently from being beaten before he was tied up.

Gu Qiaoqiao frowned, not knowing what was going on.

But obviously, the people of this Peach Blossom Valley are handling one thing with their own rules.

In fact, there are many similar situations.

Some families that have been inherited for a long time are very fond of using their own family methods to deal with their own internal affairs.

However, because when they deal with it, whether it is fair or unfair, the victim will not choose to go to the police, so the people do not raise the official and do not hold the official accountable, and such things abound.

Even Ling Nan's eyes didn't have a look of surprise, and Xiaowen seemed to be commonplace, could she be the only one in the crowd who felt that it was inappropriate to do so?

However, Gu Qiaoqiao is not a stupid girl.

This is a matter in the family, and it is impossible for her to meddle in the internal affairs of the Ling family without figuring out the truth.

After all, that person made a mistake, no matter what method was used, she was an outsider, and it was impossible for her to do anything for the time being.

And it seemed that he noticed the unusualness here, the young man who was tied up slowly raised his head, and his face was also wounded, Gu Qiaoqiao couldn't see the person's original face clearly.

However, when he saw Gu Qiaoqiao and the others, his eyes lit up obviously, but when he saw the old patriarch greeting them, that little bit of light dimmed again, obviously this person just wanted to ask for help.
