Chapter 24 Stratagem

Enter the Iron Pillar House.

The faint candlelight in the room was like the love in Lin Xiaolan's heart, fragile and terrifying. sighed weakly, and said: "I have been taken to the ancestral hall, and after the incense is finished tomorrow, it will sink into the river at three o'clock in the afternoon." ”

Xia Fan took the towel handed by Uncle Tie Zhu, thanked him, wiped the rain on his face, stared wide-eyed, and said, "These fools! I really thought I could calm the flood level!"

Looking at the family that was still very happy yesterday, now the faint candlelight is crumbling, and the dim room seems to be shrouded in a lingering gloomy atmosphere. Xia Fan immediately gritted his teeth, originally he was just disgusted with the second uncle, but at the moment he hated the second uncle and the old witch very much.

Tie Zhu was extremely desperate, although he wanted to save his daughter, but he couldn't change the decision of all the clansmen, he really wanted that he was just an ordinary person, he could save his daughter's family and fly away, and he could not care about the life or death of others. But as the patriarch, he would rather sacrifice his daughter than let go of his clansmen.

Unexpectedly, at night, I saw the old witch and the second uncle's whereabouts secretly, and the conversation was hot, I couldn't help but be surprised, so I quietly followed, and when the two returned home, they overheard, and unexpectedly learned that it was the conspiracy of the second uncle and the wizard. When he boarded, his eyes were like torches, and he was furious! I remembered that I was respectful to my second uncle on weekdays, even if I was calculated by my second uncle, it was just a verbal warning. I didn't expect Li Laishun to sacrifice his daughter for the position of patriarch! Wouldn't he think about it, he was also Xiuxia's second master?

Xia Fan told what he heard and discussed, although it was exactly the same as what Tie Zhu heard, it was a little exaggerated, and he devalued the second uncle's face as worthless.

After listening to Xia Fan, Lin Xiaolan hesitated, and the only reason in her heart made her take Xia Fan's words for a long time, looked at Tie Zhu silently, and saw Tie Zhu nodding solemnly in acquiescence. In an instant, he was filled with righteous indignation, his chest rose and fell violently, and he was speechless with anger. walked straight to the door, apparently to find the second uncle to reason. Tie Zhu suddenly said: "You went in vain, do you think he will admit it?"

Lin Xiaolan still ignored him, just caring about snatching the door and going out. Tie Zhu was helpless, so he had to hug Lin Xiaolan tightly from behind. He said softly, "Xiaolan, don't worry, leave it to me." As if the last strength in her heart was shattered, Lin Xiaolan turned around and fell into Tiezhu's arms, crying loudly in an instant. "Li Laishun, you should be damned!"

Tie Zhu's chest was instantly soaked with tears, his eyes suddenly became cold, and Xia Fan suddenly felt that the temperature around him had dropped a little, which was obviously murderous!

Seeing that Lin Xiaolan was tired of crying, she gradually lost her voice. Tiezhu picked her up and walked slowly to the back room. Xia Fan looked at Lin Xiaolan's appearance, and his heart was even more uncomfortable, but he was thinking about how to expose their conspiracy! Tie Zhu walked out alone after a while. Xia Fan stepped forward and asked, "Uncle Tiezhu, is Aunt Lin okay?" Tie Zhu said: "She's fine, she's already asleep." ”

Xia Fan put his mind at ease, his face was solemn, and asked, "Uncle Tiezhu, what should I do about this?" Tie Zhu said: "Young Master Xia, I really thank you for speaking for Xiuxia during the day." Xia Fan hurriedly waved his hand and said embarrassedly: "Uncle Tiezhu, just call me Xia Fan." Don't call me any son, I listen awkwardly. ”

Seeing that Xia Fan has a pure temperament, he has no frame that a monk should have. When he said those words during the day, he was righteous and awe-inspiring, although he didn't look old, he couldn't hide his righteousness. I can't help but admire the iron pillar greatly. smiled and said: "I'll call you a little rice, right?" Xia Fan suddenly sweated profusely, and said embarrassedly: "Uncle Tiezhu, it's not dinner, it's Xia Fan!" Tie Zhu was so amused by Xia Fan's words that he couldn't help laughing.

But suddenly the laughter stopped, and he said viciously: "Since this Li Laishun doesn't miss the feelings of the same clan at all, then I will never treat him as my second uncle!"

Xia Fan very much agreed with what Tie Zhu said, although he was affectionate, but every sentence was reasonable. Xin said: "You should have thought so a long time ago!"

Tie Zhu then said worriedly: "Xiao Fan, although the two of us know what happened, it is difficult for the clan to know the truth, and besides, this rain is probably as the wizard said, it will not stop tomorrow at all, and Xiuxia may still be difficult to escape this catastrophe." ”

Xia Fan understands Tie Zhu's worries, because even if he knows, Tie Zhu knows, but others don't know, even if they say it, they won't believe it, sometimes it's like this, but the concept you abandon is the belief that others protect with their lives. I just find it more difficult at the moment. For a moment both were silent.

Xia Fan fell into a deep long exam. But I never thought of a good way, which could not only save Xiuxia, but also make those foolish people not blame the Tiezhu family. In contemplation, look left and right, just come up with a perfect solution!

Xia Fan suddenly said: "Uncle Tiezhu, it's a big deal, why don't we just save people directly?"

Tie Zhu had a lot of troubles, and said: "If I am not the head of the clan, it's okay, and I leave here with my family, then that's fine, but ...... If you just ignore the life and death of your clansmen and save Xiuxia, how can my family gain a foothold in Lijia Village?"

Xia Fan understood, this is the key to the problem, saving people is simple, but what is difficult is secular prejudice!

Helpless, the two looked at each other and sighed, and could only continue to meditate.

Suddenly, Xia Fan, who had no clue, was attracted by the wolf's fur on the chair. Pointing to the chair, he asked, "Uncle Tiezhu, is this the giant wolf?"

Tie Zhu said: "Well, what's wrong?"

Xia Fan nodded as if he had a feeling, and suddenly recalled the situation when the iron pillar fought and killed the head wolf, at that time, the iron pillar was extremely brave, like a god descending to earth!

Tie Zhu suddenly smiled when he saw Xia Fan, who was frowning, and wondered: "Xiao Fan, have you thought of any good way?"

Xia Fan was suddenly overjoyed, and smiled happily: "Uncle Tiezhu, Xiuxia is saved, we can save Xiuxia." ”

Hearing Xia Fan say this, Tie Zhu only thought that his fifteen or sixteen-year-old child could think of any good way, and he couldn't believe it: "Really?"

Xia Fan nodded heavily and said, "Absolutely, didn't the witch say that the rain would stop in a few days?" But he still didn't understand, and said, "Even if the rain stops, Xiuxia will sink into the river tomorrow!"

Xia Fan took a step forward and leaned into Tie Zhu's ear. I don't know what was said. The iron pillar went from being puzzled at first, to being shocked, and then to being ecstatic.

happily said: "Xiao Fan, what a clever plan! Let's do it tomorrow!"

Xia Fan nodded. "I'll go back and tell the master. ”

"Master, have you already worshipped Master Gao as a teacher?" said Tie Zhu in surprise.

Seeing Xia Fan nodded. Tie Zhu couldn't help but be happy for Xia Fan. "Then you will be a high monk from now on!"

Xia Fan touched his nose, his face was slightly red, and he said embarrassedly: "It's still early!" Thinking of something again, he whispered: "Uncle Tiezhu, don't tell Aunt Lin first, acting should be more realistic!" Tie Zhu understood and nodded in agreement.

After that, Xia Fan hurriedly walked out of the courtyard, and he didn't hear what Tie Zhu said clearly, probably because he was careful or something.

At the moment, I can't bother to reply. Because the sky was about to dawn, Li Laishun and the old witch must not be alerted!

Tie Zhu watched Xia Fan quickly disappear into the darkness. He said to himself, "I hope this kid's plan works." He looked in the direction of the ancestral hall in the village, where Xiuxia, who was guarded by several people, was located. He said to himself in a serious voice: "Daughter, if you can survive, I don't think it's good to look at Xia Fan's child!"
