Chapter 6: Lady Oath
Gu Jianxuan, a child who came out of the big clan, really didn't look down on Xijia Village's small-family approach.
What is this about, using deliberate goodness to tie up one person, taking the interests of the majority of people to support a small number of people?
This kind of source master trapped in a corner of the land will be raised and wasted no matter how much potential he has.
Canggu is an example of this.
To be honest, she knew that Canggu was a person with superior virtue and ability, but her vision really only stayed at one acre and three points of land.
This is good or bad, but it is suitable for a family of three to live a quiet life.
And it just so happened that she only wanted to be comfortable, fit, and happy in Canggu, and she didn't care how much money he posted in the village, and how loyal she was to the clan, otherwise she wouldn't have enjoyed the fun of the mountains and wilderness here for more than ten years.
But she couldn't let her daughter stay in this kind of village.
Over there, Xi Xulan spoke again, "Why are you so selfish, but if you think of the love of the same clan for so many years, you should also think about it for the village." ”
"Don't say it, don't say it. Xi Xushui waved his hand tiredly, "Let's go back to Canggu's family." ”
He took out a parchment scroll from his bosom and pushed it towards Gu Jianxuan, "Look, this is the note set up during the genealogy of Canggu at that time. ”
Xi Huanyan, who was standing beside his mother, also glanced at it, and the above agreements were summarized to say that if Canggu did not have direct relatives such as the same contract, the same family, heirs, disciples, etc., the family background would be received by the clan.
If there is a direct relative, but there is no source master, martial artist, or person with great merit in the clan among the directly related persons, the family income will be distributed by the clan under the condition of ensuring the food and clothing of the directly related person.
If there is a source teacher among the direct stakeholders, the entire family wealth will be inherited by the related person who has the status of the source master.
If there is only a martial artist or a person with great merit, then seventy percent of the family background will be inherited by the martial artist or the person with great merit, and the rest will be handed over to the clan.
Xi Xushui nodded the parchment scroll, "You can see clearly, Qiongdong is a disciple of Canggu, a spiritual enlightener, and sooner or later he will become a source master, and he has the right to inherit all the inheritance, and you and him are just colleagues." ”
Xi Cangjin nodded, he took it for granted, he also set up such a note when he entered the genealogy.
This is not a bad thing, handing over the inheritance in exchange for the care of the living.
It's been like this for hundreds of years.
"There is still a difference between an apprentice and a disciple. Gu Jianxuan rubbed the scar on his right palm, did not fight with the authority figures in the clan on this issue, and simply said, "It is a good thing for Qiongdong to become a spiritual enlightener after all, and it is okay for Canggu's family background to be given to him, when are you going to count it?"
At this time, Xi Xushui and Xi Xulan's faces eased at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Xi Xushui said politely, "Don't worry, wait until the matter of the alien demon is resolved." ”
He knew what it meant to be relaxed, how could he dare to drive a martial artist out of the house at the moment when the alien demon came.
The Star Splitter knows how to work hard, and any adult can split a brick for you, but there are not many who can be rated as stars, and there are only four one-star martial artists in the village, and Gu Jianxuan is a two-star.
For example, Xi Xushui, Xi Canggu, and Xi Shouyan are one-star, three-star, and three-star source teachers respectively.
The star rating is assessed according to the actual combat power, so theoretically, there is not much difference in the strength of martial artists and source masters of the same star.
This is also the reason why Gu Jianxuan dared not to give Xi Xu face.
"Is there anything else going on with the village chief, if it's okay, I'll take the child to rest. Gu Jian gave an eviction order.
Xi Xushui didn't get up, "The demon has not been found, the village is still in crisis, I want you to take the position of the captain of the village guard, leading people to patrol day and night, do you think it will work?"
This is a dangerous errand, not to mention the need to fight for your life, and you have to bear the responsibility for the dead.
But she is still in the village for a day, so she can't shirk it, who made her a martial artist. What's more, seeing the alien demon mutilating innocent lives, she can't sit idly by.
"I can come, but I hope Yan'er can go to Mrs. Oath Yan to learn the craftsman's craft. ”
Xi Huanyan looked at Gu Jianxuan in surprise and got a reassuring look.
Xi Xushui's old face wrinkled, and he was embarrassed, "This ...... Aunt Yan has not accepted apprentices for more than 20 years, and her physical condition is worrying, so she has no energy to teach. ”
Gu Jianxuan drank tea and did not speak.
In this silence, Xi Xulan made a round, "I'll ask Aunt Xuyan, it depends on the old man's opinion." ”
"I'll wait. ”
A conversation broke up, and only the two were left in the lobby.
Xi Huanyan asked, "Why did my mother swear that Mrs. Yan came to teach me, isn't the relationship between my father and her bad?"
Dad is good to everyone in the village, but he doesn't get along with the old lady who taught him the craftsman's craft, although the father didn't say anything, but she listened to the village people gossip, and the old lady often beat and scolded him, and then completely fell out.
Gu Jianxuan stretched out his hand and nodded her head, "You just need to study modestly, don't discipline who your person is, besides, your father admits that he can't surpass Mrs. Xuyan, if you can really learn from her, it's a good thing." ”
Xi Huanyan hugged her hand, "It would be stupid to do it any more." ”
Gu Jianxuan sighed, "If you're really stupid, I'll leave you here to mess around." ”
Xi Huanyan: ∑ (っ°Д°;) っ
"Did you hear our conversation just now, it's all another person in the future, do you have any grievances?"
Xi Huanyan was silent for a moment, "In disguise, this is my father's choice before his death, and I respect this result." ”
Gu Jianxuan's eyes were soft, but he was still angry with her, "Then your father's tools, rare wood and ore, including his codex and various professional books, I will seal them up and hand them over to the next one." ”
Xi Huanyan's mind flashed over what her father said for a moment-I will teach you.
She said depressedly, "Seal it." ”
"Strike. Gu Jianxuan pinched her face distressedly, "Your father left all the things to the village, and the mother's things are left to you." ”
"You're good enough. Xi Huanyan said vaguely.
Gu Jianxuan showed his first smile in these days, "I've grown up." ”
"I've always been sensible. Xi Huanyan argued, and her eyes fell on her right palm, "Actually, I'm curious, the scar of my mother's mother was accidentally left, or it was left when I signed the contract." ”
In the same deed ceremony, the two need to cut the palm of the hand and drip blood on the wine, and if you want to end this relationship, you have to make another knife to cut off the scar, which is to break the palm.
She remembered that her father's two palms were unscarred, and her mother had not mentioned any deed for many years, so she should have accidentally drawn them.
Today, I felt inexplicably, so I asked.
Gu Jianxuan was stunned, smiled, but did not answer.
The next day, the clan elder Xi Xulan brought news, and Mrs. Yan agreed.
Gu Jianxuan went to organize the patrol early in the morning, Xi Huanyan packed up his things by himself, and followed Xi Xulan to the residence of Mrs. Suyan.
Mrs. Swear Yan did not live in the village, she had moved into Lingling Mountain next to the Fengguo Cliff a long time ago, and she did not interact with people on weekdays.
