I sat cross-legged on the bed and pondered quietly for a moment, when suddenly I said something to the man who had been hiding out the window that had nothing to do with what was being talked about outside, and I asked, "Can you come in and talk to me?" As soon as I finished speaking, the man outside fell into a dead silence, and his face and breath were faint, as if he had disappeared in an instant, but I knew that he had no news, and that he was standing outside the cave.

Seeing that he didn't speak, I had to take the initiative to speak again: "You yourself have already called Xiao Wu the patriarch, and you know so much about the things in the clan, then I can be very sure that you must be a member of the clan, since you have no ill will towards me, how can I harm you?" After a pause, seeing that he hadn't spoken yet, I continued to follow the temptation: "I called you in, just to make it more convenient to speak, you said that Xiao Wu has been placed under house arrest, I am the person brought by Xiao Wu, presumably that person will not be friendly to me, and now you are standing outside the cave and talking to me, in case someone sees it and reaches that person's ears, then you must not have a good time." ”

As soon as his words fell, he asked anxiously, "Really?" There was a hint of trembling in his voice, and when I heard it, he was a very simple person, I laughed in my heart, there has been such a big change in your clan, who will have the heart to take care of me, at most, to lock me up here until I am old and starve to death, but seeing that he believed my words, I still continued to fool him with a sincere face: "Of course, it is very dangerous for you to stand outside now, so come in quickly." ”

He was really moved by what I said, but he still maintained the last trace of the bottom line, and he insisted to me: "You have to promise me that after I come in, you must not be angry and do not use spells against me." I don't understand why he thinks I'm angry when I see him, but I'm thankful that he's willing to come in, and I promise thoughtfully, "Okay, I'll promise you what you say, come in quickly." ”

After saying this, I stared at the door tightly, but I didn't see anyone, I frowned, thinking to myself, no, could it be that he suddenly repented, I scratched my head, turned my head to look at the window, and was about to persuade him again, but I was startled by the scene I suddenly saw.

I saw a young man's head embedded directly in the middle of the window, seeing me look at him, he blinked, lowered his head embarrassedly, and then actually stretched out another arm, I looked at him in a daze, I couldn't react for a while, and I didn't know whether to shout loudly, or directly at him A silver needle pierced past, so I missed the best opportunity to attack, seeing that he started with a head, then an arm, then a leg, and then an arm and leg on the other side, and then penetrated the window without hindrance, Completely stood in front of me.

I looked at the boy in front of me with a cloth in his hand standing in front of me, and suddenly realized that I had seen him, he was the unlucky boy who was bitten by the demon, of course, later when I was besieged by the people of the clan, he was very cowardly and hiding, no wonder he just said something to let me not be angry when I saw him. I silently rolled my eyes in my heart, I was really not angry, I was frightened, I was scared to death, okay?

So I didn't even have a good tone to talk to him, so I chuckled lightly, and then asked, "It's you, what?" Boy, have you found out your conscience? As soon as my words came out, his face immediately turned red, he opened his mouth, and explained to me in a hurry, I didn't bother to listen to him, and directly interrupted him: "Stop, stop, I'm joking with you, I don't care what you thought at the time, and no matter why you suddenly came here to bring me food, I'm calling you in now, just to find out what is going on in your clan now, why is your patriarch under house arrest for no reason?" Also, who is the person who put him under house arrest? ”

After I had said a long paragraph, he sat down and waited for him to tell me, and he scratched his head, finally reacted, and immediately said to me: "This is the case, in fact, it didn't happen for no reason, it's just ...... It's ......"

Seeing that he didn't say two words, and didn't even explain things clearly, he began to fool around again, and I was angry, stared at him directly, and said impatiently to him: "You say it one by one, explain it to me immediately, don't swallow it anymore." He took a deep breath, looked at me embarrassed, didn't speak, I closed my eyes, and immediately opened them, no longer patient, I sighed, "Do you say it or not, if you don't say it, I'm going to sleep." ”

He hesitated for a while, then finally gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, this matter is a family ugly in our clan. We didn't dare to talk about it easily, but since the fairy girl wanted to know, I could only say it. "Ugly?" I raised an eyebrow and motioned for him to continue.

He nodded, and after deciding, he didn't hesitate any longer, it seemed that he had been holding back for a long time, and finally found someone to say, and he immediately spoke freely: "The inheritance in our clan is the primogeniture system, but our patriarch is actually not the eldest son. ”

"Huh?" Suddenly, I heard such shocking news, and I looked at him with wide eyes in surprise.

Probably talking about the secrets of the clan, a trace of unnatural blush appeared on his face, some excited, some embarrassed, he nodded at me, and then explained: "But this is definitely not because of the style of our patriarch, our folk customs here are very simple, as long as men and women are in love, they can make a private decision for life, our old patriarch before becoming the patriarch, and a girl fell in love and had a relationship, but seeing that they were about to get married, the girl and the old patriarch had a misunderstanding, and disappeared directly without saying a word." , The patriarch also looked for her for a long time, but there was no result, after a long time, the patriarch's feelings for her gradually faded, about three or four years later, the patriarch met a girl again, he fell in love with this girl, this time it was particularly smooth, the two of them got married very quickly, and gave birth to a child in the second year, this child is Xiao Wu, that is, our patriarch. ”

It turns out that this is the case, although this is ancient, but he also said that the folk customs in their clan are simple, since the girl left by herself, and the time has passed for so many years, it is understandable to fall in love with other girls, what does this have to do with what I said next, I thought carefully about the cause and effect, and suddenly remembered that he said that Xiao Wu was not the eldest son, and I suddenly realized the crux of the problem.

I looked up at him sharply: "The person you are talking about, could it be Xiao Wu's brother?" He listened to my words, his face darkened, it seemed that he was very jealous of that person, he nodded slightly, and nervously turned his head to look around, to make sure that no one would overhear our conversation, and then lowered his voice and said: "Yes, he is Xiao Wu's brother, the child of the missing woman, a few years ago, that woman suddenly brought him back, because what happened between her and the old patriarch was known to everyone back then, and the child he brought was exactly the same as the old patriarch, It's like carved out of a mold. So everyone knows their relationship well. ”

It turned out to be like this, and suddenly this one-and-a-half-eldest son appeared, that Xiao Wu was really dangerous, and I thought of the trick of the wealthy family, and I couldn't help but sigh.

He looked at my expression, waved at me, and reminded me, "Fairy Gu? Fairy Gu, are you okay? "Huh?" When I came back to my senses, I saw his hands shaking in front of my eyes, and I coughed and said, "I'm fine, you can go on." ”

At that time, the woman came back with the child and did have the intention of competing for the inheritance, because the woman was a big family in the clan, there were many supporters in the clan, and the people in the clan were open, although she did not marry the old patriarch, but the child she gave birth to was indeed the eldest son of the patriarch, so for a while, rumors spread in the clan, all saying that the patriarch wanted to replace the original heir, and the patriarch of the child should be appointed. The clan was divided into two factions for a while, and for a while, the smoke of gunfire was everywhere. ”

"And then? And then? Sure enough, this was the case again, and I couldn't help but get nervous and asked again and again.

"Later?" He glanced at me slowly, with a narrow smile in his eyes, and actually sold Guanzi. I slapped him on the head in dissatisfaction and urged, "Tell me quickly, I'm dying." ”

He pursed his lips, touched his head dissatisfiedly, and muttered in a low voice: "Fairy Gu, why are you so rude." Seeing that I was about to glare at him again, he immediately spoke: "I said I said, don't beat me again." I nodded with satisfaction, crossed Erlang's legs, and said with a smile: "That's right, hurry up and say, don't ink." ”

"Later, our old patriarch actually came forward in person, and he said to everyone in the clan that there is only one wife, who he is marrying in the media, that is, the current patriarch's wife, so his heir is only Xiao Wu, it can't be anyone else, if the people in the clan dare to talk about this matter again, they will be expelled directly, and they will not be allowed to return to their own clan, just like that, the rumors will be quelled."
