Chapter 363: Succession Ceremony
"Thank you so much for today, gentlemen!"
In the conference hall, Zhu Qing politely thanked me and Hu Yifei, and a trace of tiredness flashed on her face, but she quickly swept it away. Fire Ran??? Text: en'org
"Miss Zhuqing is too polite, this is what we should do, let's go and see how the old patriarch's injuries are, right?"
I said a polite word to Zhu Qing and shifted the topic to the old patriarchs; In fact, what I was thinking about was that I wanted to bring Lin Zi over as soon as possible and let the old patriarch solve the Gu; But I don't know what the old patriarch's current injuries are? So it's inconvenient to mention this matter, so I can only take a look at it first!
"Good!"
Zhu Qing smiled at me and agreed, but when she looked at Hu Yifei, her face was a little blushing, maybe to avoid embarrassment, her gaze didn't stay on us for too long, and after a glance, she took the lead and walked behind the screen.
"Today's civil strife in our clan is all down to the two of you, and I thank you on behalf of the Gelao Gu tribe for ......"
After arriving at the old patriarch's room, Gao Jing was no longer here, but was arranged to the next room! The old patriarch was half-lying on the bed, with a large plaster on his neck; Fortunately, the injury was not serious, and after seeing us come in, it was another word of gratitude.
"Patriarch, don't be polite, after all, we came here to ask you this time, not to mention that the Gu poison on Gao Jing's body still needs you to solve it!"
Seeing that the old patriarch was fine, I followed the line and silently mentioned the purpose of our coming.
"Yes, yes, yes...... The old lady almost forgot! In this way, you can bring your friend over tomorrow, although the poison of the Gu is difficult to solve, it shouldn't be a problem for my old lady! ”
When the old patriarch saw us mention this matter, he hurriedly smiled and agreed, and it could be seen from her words that the Gu on Lin Zi's body was not a big problem for her, which also made our hearts finally feel a lot more comforted.
And in the next period of time, I asked the old patriarch and Zhu Qing about the six-winged golden cicada; Only then did I know that the six-winged golden cicada and the golden cicada Gu and the golden silkworm Gu of the Wizard Zhuyan were actually the same species, but the degree of evolution was different.
Although the Golden Silkworm Gu is also among the best Gu worms, the Golden Cicada Gu of the old patriarch is a Gu worm that further evolves from the Golden Silkworm Gu, so it is naturally more powerful than the Golden Silkworm Gu of the Wizard of Zhuyan, but the reason why it was defeated before was because the Wizard of Zhuyan used a cruel and inhumane method to cultivate the Golden Silkworm Gu.
As for Zhuqing's six-winged golden cicada, it is even more powerful; According to the old patriarch, the reason why the six-winged golden cicada is called so is actually because after the golden cicada Gu evolves to the late stage, it will grow six pairs of wings, and every time it grows a pair of wings, its own strength will increase significantly, and the golden cicada Gu on the old patriarch's body only has one pair of wings, as for the golden silkworm Gu of the Zhuyan wizard, it doesn't even have wings; Therefore, although they are all Golden Cicada Gu, the difference in strength is a bit huge!
Since there was no big problem with the old patriarch, Hu Yifei and I chatted with them for a few words and then went to see Gao Jing; Gao Jing was still unconscious, but the Gu poison on his body was suppressed by my Taoist true qi and the medicine given by the old patriarch.
When I got back to the stilted building where we lived, I turned on my phone; There were several missed calls on the phone, all of them from the stranger! But before Lin Zi woke up, I wasn't ready to respond to him yet.
After that, I made another call to the old Master Zhang who was still in the Phoenix Ancient City, and asked him to come over with Lin Zi early tomorrow morning, and the old Master Zhang on the other end of the phone naturally agreed again and again.
After a tiring day in the tomb of the ancestors, my body was already sleepy; Fortunately, after getting rid of the Wizard Zhuyan, we can also sleep peacefully. As for what to do with the three rebellious elders? This is an internal affair of the Gelao tribe, so it is not our responsibility.
Before I went to bed, though, I remembered the bronze tree in the forbidden land; Since it can be induced by the bronze disc on my body, there should also be a bronze stump? Since there are bronze stumps here, does it mean that the old patriarch may know some secrets about the bronze stumps? After thinking about it, I decided to ask the old patriarch tomorrow!
Early the next morning, Hu Yifei and I were greeted by the old patriarch's cronies! We were told that the old patriarch had invited us to the great god tree to attend the succession ceremony of the new patriarch.
"The new patriarch? Could it be Zhuqing? ”
After listening to the story, I learned the reason why the old patriarch informed the people to go to the Great God Tree last night. After getting dressed and washing, Hu Yifei and I followed the old patriarch's cronies to the forbidden land.
When we arrived at the forbidden land, we saw that the old patriarch, Zhu Qing and a few cronies had already arrived here, and there were many bustling clansmen who were also coming.
"Grandma, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing? I'm not mentally prepared at all! ”
Zhu Qing hugged the old patriarch's arm, and was a little frightened with the old patriarch; Listening to the meaning of her words, it seems that it is the same as me and Hu Yifei, and I just learned that today is the day when she succeeds to the new patriarch of the ancient clan.
"Zhuqing! Grandma is already old, and she can't bear the girder of the ancient clan, and today Mr. Zhang and they are also there, and the civil strife in the clan has subsided, so it's best for you to become the patriarch at this time! ”
The old patriarch was dressed very solemnly today, and hurriedly greeted me after seeing me and Hu Yifei coming, and he was also very enthusiastic about us; On the contrary, it was Zhu Qing, who was following her, after seeing Hu Yifei, she seemed to remember what happened yesterday, and her face turned red again.
"Mr. Zhang, has your friend left?"
The old patriarch saw that there was still some time before the succession ceremony of the new patriarch, so he took the initiative to ask me about the situation in the forest.
"Well, I just called, and they're already on their way!"
I answered the old patriarch's question honestly, and then looked carefully at the bronze tree standing in front of me, wondering what was the mystery on it that could make us fall asleep that night without noticing? It's a pity that after watching it for a while, I didn't see anything!
"I heard from the people that on the night you came, the sacred tree had a vision?"
The old patriarch saw me frowning and staring at the bronze tree in front of me, as if he knew what I was thinking? He asked me again.
"Yes, patriarch, I still have some questions for you after the ceremony, I don't know if it's okay?"
Since the old patriarch took the initiative to raise this question, then I no longer hid it, but bluntly told the old patriarch my purpose.
"Okay, old lady, I also have some secrets to tell you, then let's go back and talk again!"
The old patriarch was not at all surprised by what I said suddenly, as if I should have asked about it? This made me a little confused for a while!
