Frostfall Chapter 11 Elder
"What? Brother Hongshuang, are you going to participate in the root bone measurement too? Chu Tianyou's eyes widened.
The two returned along the mountain road, and halfway through, Chu Hongshuang still mentioned this matter to him.
"Yes!" Chu Hongshuang looked at Chu Tianyou firmly, and said heavily, no matter what, he has to successfully participate, this is involving his own life!
"Brother Hongshuang, this is a good thing, but you ......"
"It's okay, I'm just going to try, it's a big deal that I can't test anything, and I'll just make a fool of myself in front of everyone in the clan again." Chu Hongshuang grinned and said, compared to saving life, those are all trivial things.
Chu Tianyou's head shook like a rattle, "No, Brother Hongshuang, the patriarch may not let you participate." They have always regarded you as a thorn in their side, and it is already a blessing that you will not be troubled. ”
"These, I will find a way to convince the patriarch and the ancestral hall elders." Chu Hongshuang said lightly.
Chu Tianyou nodded vigorously, his eyes were full of expectation, "Brother Hongshuang, I fully support you." ”
"Also, Brother Hongshuang, you are so close to the Qin Fairy, have you seen her face clearly?"
Chu Hongshuang gave him a punch gently, "You kid, do you miss the Qin Fairy?" Didn't see it clearly...... This is the eighth time I've answered you! "I want to see it too, who knew that was so well hidden.
Chu Tianyou scratched his head embarrassedly, and began to sketch the appearance of the imaginary fairy in his mind, a young man with a budding spring heart, and his heart was always full of infinite hope.
……
Chu family ancestral hall.
It is also a presbyterian residence.
In addition to the great elders, there are six kinds of positions: passing on merits, conferring professions, protecting mountains, enforcing the law, attacking outside, and internal affairs.
The Elder of the Outer Attack led his people across Cuiwei Lake to fight with the barbarians, but was shot down into the lake by the barbarians and died.
This position is temporarily vacant, and it is said that the second brother of the patriarch is about to return from his armor after holding an important position in the army, so the Council of Elders also has nothing to fear.
The ancestral hall is magnificent, located in the back mountain, guarding the back mountain gate, and the barbarian people are often daunted.
At this time, in the front hall of the ancestral hall, the six elders sat in columns, facing Chu Hongshuang, the drunken Chu Wuju, and Meng Tieshi, who had a broken hand.
Outside the door, they stood in groups to watch the lively clansmen.
Chu Hongshuang was a little timid at first, but after being patted on the shoulder by her grandfather, she couldn't help straightening her waist and looking directly at the six elders.
"The ancestors are above, the clan rules are clear, and now the clansman Chu Hongshuang has suffered injustice in vain, and the person in charge of the execution, Meng Tieshi, has been punished privately, and in front of the ancestral tablet, the family rules and inscriptions are openly tried." It was the Great Elder who spoke.
The Great Elder was in the center, wearing a white robe, and the three-legged Fire Phoenix Clan Emblem embroidered on his chest was extremely eye-catching. He had white hair and a long beard, but his skin was smooth and ruddy, and he did not look like an old man of nearly 100 years old.
"We have also investigated your affairs clearly, even if Chu Hongshuang is suspected of being unclear, there is no certainty, what Meng Tieshi did is indeed inappropriate and violates the clan rules!"
The old man on the left hand of the Great Elder was fat, with a big head and a thick neck, but his voice was crisp and clean, like hitting metal.
Chu Hongshuang had met this elder several times in his memory, and he was the law enforcement elder who had a good understanding of the clan rules and memorized them like a stream.
"Haha, the clan rules are pestled in black and white, everyone can see that he has violated the clan rules, I want to know now, what are you going to do with this guy!"
Although Grandpa Chu Wuju was still drunk, his words were not ambiguous at all, sharp as a thorn, and his sharpness was exposed.
The law enforcement elder looked displeased, coughed lightly and said: "There are rules in the clan: whoever has nothing to do will be given twenty rods and three days of confinement. ”
"Chu Xingzhou, you really know how to avoid the important and light!" Chu Wuju roared angrily.
Chu Hongshuang was also taken aback by his grandfather's anger, and in his memory, the ancestral hall was a solemn place, and loud noises were strictly prohibited.
"Ridiculous! In the ancestral hall, how dare you be presumptuous! The Great Elder stood up angrily, and his eyebrows trembled.
Chu Wuju did not flinch, hugged his grandson's shoulders, and said loudly: "Hongshuang has been tortured a lot, so you have decided to have nothing to do?!" ”
The Great Elder frowned, and he didn't feel that it was appropriate, and looked at the Law Enforcement Elder with some displeasure.
The law enforcement elder snorted and said, "Of course not. Meng Tieshi was originally the person in charge of the execution, and what he did was just a routine execution, not to mention deliberately hurting the clansmen, and it was a crime to do nothing. ”
"However, as the person in charge of the execution, he is also guilty of abusing the punishment, and the punishment for both crimes is 50 canes, 15 days of confinement, and the month's salary is exempted."
Chu Wuju shook his head and retorted strongly: "This punishment makes people laugh out of their big teeth!" He has punished my grandson without any grounds, and he should have 100 rods, a month's imprisonment, and be removed from the post of prisoner! ”
"Nonsense! According to the prescribed crime, there is no child's play! The law enforcement elder said angrily, "Chu Hongshuang is already suspicious, involving the lives of three clansmen, even if he is tortured, there is nothing wrong with it, Meng Tieshi's mistake is only that he did not go through the procedures within the clan!" ”
"What a no-go program! Such a high-sounding !! Chu Wuqi's red hair instantly turned upside down, and his horizontal eyebrows swept over the elders.
"This matter has been decided, there is no need to argue again, Meng Tieshi, are you guilty?" The Grand Elder waved his hand impatiently and looked at the executioner who was kneeling on the ground.
Meng Tieshi also knew that he would get off the donkey down the slope, and hurriedly responded: "Tieshi admits punishment, the family rules are clear, even if the punishment is heavy, I am willing!" ”
"Bullshit!" Chu Wuju scolded and glared angrily at the executioner.
"Chu Wuju, in the ancestral hall, dare to make a mistake!" The Great Elder glared angrily, his voice trembling with anger.
"I don't accept this sentence! You are unjust and ashamed of your ancestors. Chu Wuju's voice suddenly became low, and a small streamer suddenly appeared around him.
"Bold!" All the elders shouted in unison and stood up one after another, only the Elder Hushan had a gloomy face, squinting at the red-haired old man in front of him.
He was over the age of old, his face was dark yellow, his figure was thin and tough, he wore an ink robe, his hands were hidden in his sleeves, and his big sleeves moved without wind.
"In that case, then I'll do the right thing for heaven!"
Chu Wuqi roared in a low voice, and the electricity around his body was dense, and there was a faint crackling sound.
"Bastard!"
"Stop!"
"Look for death!"
The elders shouted loudly one after another.
The last sound of looking for death was particularly loud and deafening, and Chu Hongshuang couldn't help but cover her ears with her hands.
It was the Mountain Elder who was sitting in place and staring coldly at Chu Wuju.
I saw him suddenly eject from the chair, hunting in the ink robe, and moved in front of Chu Wuqi in an instant.
Before everyone could see how he could make a move, Chu Wuqi had already flown out upside down and fell heavily outside the ancestral hall.
The people who watched the excitement outside the door exclaimed again and again, and avoided them one after another.
Chu Wuju drew a scorched black mark on the ground that was more than a few feet long.
As soon as he turned over and stood up, the mountain protector flew out like a vicious tiger, his body was like electricity, and he swept up the fallen leaves all over the ground.
The red-haired old man clenched his fists and shouted softly, "Come!" Nine finger-thick red lightning bolts suddenly lit up on him, and the surrounding air roared under the compression of the current.
"Nine Thunder Protectors!?"
"The highest level of Red Thunder Technique...... So shocking! ”
Everyone was talking, and they couldn't help but be impressed by this red-haired old man who drank heavily all day and didn't ask about the world.
"No, if you look closely, the ninth thunder aura is weak, and it should be forcibly broken through!"
"Rao is like this, the formation of the Nine Thunders is just around the corner!"
"What a Nine Thunder Protector!" Elder Mountain Protector laughed and said with interest.
The inky black robe swelled instantly, like a lotus blooming, and ripples emanated from all over it.
