Chapter 161: Zhou Ancestral Land
"The Zhou clan has recalled all the clansmen outside this time! I'm afraid it's to elect a new patriarch! ”
"The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and as long as the old and immortal ones of the Zhou clan are alive for a day, we, the forces of the outside world, will not dare to invade the Zhou clan."
"The invasion doesn't mean much! Give them a hand and cause some trouble by the way, I think it's okay! ”
Outside the altar in the depths of the cave, there are three groups of people facing each other at this moment.
A man in a cyan mask is the leader of a group of ghost-faced people.
The other two groups of black-clothed people were led by an old woman with a masked face on crutches, and another hunchbacked old man on crutches.
These three people are extremely strong in cultivation, and at first glance, they are the top powerhouses of the hidden world.
The three of them looked at the slowly rotating whirlpool in the altar, and were talking as if no one was around.
There were many corpses lying around the altar, and some of the men in black tried to jump into the whirlpool, but they were all directly strangled into a blood mist by the whirlpool.
"Burn the formation according to the plan! Sacrifice with the blood of the Zhou clan! ”
A middle-aged man wearing a cyan mask appeared on the altar, looked at the whirlpool a few times, and then ordered his subordinates under the stage.
......
......
The ancestral land of the Zhou clan is in a small world isolated from the world.
After Zhou Fan passed through the tunnel like a streamer, he had already appeared in a dense forest full of ancient atmosphere when he was down-to-earth again.
Before he could react, a group of strong men who suddenly appeared surrounded him and Zhou Yitong.
An old man in a green shirt at the head took out a mirror and looked at the two of them.
The mirror shot out two beams of light and entered Zhou Fan and Zhou Yitong's bodies in the blink of an eye.
Both of them immediately felt that their bodies suddenly became hot, and the blood in their bodies seemed to gradually become boiling.
I saw that Zhou Yitong's pupils instantly flashed with white flames, and the scorching flames suddenly made the surrounding temperature rise rapidly.
At the same time, an even hotter wave of qi overflowed from Zhou Fan's body.
I saw that his pupils suddenly burst out of red flames, and the flames carried a blood vein coercion, instantly suppressing Zhou Yitong's white pupil flames, allowing the flames to gradually restrain the violent aura that erupted from itself.
The old man in green shirt holding the mirror looked at Zhou Fan with some surprise as his eyes burned with red flames.
"Excellent! One of you has awakened the red pupil and the other has awakened the white pupil, and they are all the pillars of my Zhou clan in the future! ”
The old man in the green shirt looked extremely happy, and after putting away the mirror, he politely encouraged Zhou Fan and Zhou Yitong.
The inheritor of the bloodline of the Zhou clan, there have been fewer and fewer people who have awakened the Heavenly Pupil in the past hundred years.
Scarcity is precious, if it was placed in the past, not to mention the lowest-level white pupils, even the higher-level red pupils would not be focused on cultivation.
However, the changes in a hundred years have greatly shrunk the awakened Tiantong of the Zhou clan.
Therefore, Zhou Fan and Zhou Yitong are now two baby bumps in the eyes of the old man in green shirts.
The vision in the eyes of the two gradually dissipated, and by the time they came back to their senses, the elder had already begun to introduce himself.
"I'm Ninth Elder Zhou Qingshan, you can call me Ninth Elder or Elder Qingshan!"
The elders of the green shirt attached great importance to Zhou Fan and Zhou Yitong, and did not despise them because they were members of the branch clan.
"Zhou Bufan!"
"Zhou Yitong!"
"I've seen the Elder Tsing Yi!"
When he first arrived, Zhou Fan naturally didn't want to cause more trouble, so he immediately took Zhou Yitong to salute.
"Go ahead! Go to the base camp at the foot of the mountain to rest for two days, and there will be other arrangements in the clan at that time! ”
The elder in green shirt didn't say much, and after pointing out the direction to Zhou Fan and the others, he left with the guards.
"Elder! There are enemies outside the realm who are besieging and killing the clansmen of our Zhou clan, and please ask the elders to decide! ”
I saw Zhou Yitong hesitating to catch up, and respectfully bowed to the elder in green shirts.
"I already know that! Go back to base camp first, I'll take care of it! ”
The elder in the green shirt seemed to have known for a long time, and after lightly replying to Zhou Yitong, he took his subordinates away.
"Let's go!"
Zhou Fan frowned slightly as he looked at the Tsing Yi Elder and the others who had gone away, he was not very satisfied with the Zhou clan's attitude towards foreign invasions.
He greeted Zhou Yitong, turned around and walked towards the depths of the dense forest.
Zhou Yitong hesitated, and finally followed Zhou Fan to leave.
The two walked in the dense mountain forest for a while, and then they came to a bamboo forest under a majestic mountain peak.
There are many small bamboo houses built in the bamboo forest, and the small bamboo houses here are all for the Zhou clan branch people to live.
When he came to a large bamboo house in the depths of the bamboo forest, Zhou Fan met Zhou Weifeng and hundreds of teenagers and girls who looked a little embarrassed.
"I thought you were going to be torn apart by the whirlpool!"
"I thought you'd be left with no bones!"
The first thing Zhou Fan and Zhou Weifeng said when they met was a special way of greeting each other.
"Huh! I chose a bamboo house, and if you don't mind, you can choose the empty one next to me! ”
After Zhou Weifeng greeted Zhou Fan with a smile, he came to a remote bamboo house in the depths of the bamboo houses.
Zhou Fan didn't have any requirements for a place to live, so he casually found a bamboo house nearby to live in.
And Zhou Yitong, who followed him, was embarrassed to live with him, so he could only find another empty bamboo house nearby.
In the next few days, the small bamboo forest was extremely quiet, and no high-level officials of the Zhou clan came to visit or arrange tasks for them.
Every day, when the time for dinner arrives, a special escort team will bring a variety of delicacies.
The delicious food and drink were served and served, so that the younger generation of the returning family forgot the panic of being hunted down and killed.
They all became comfortable and greedy for pleasure, and although everyone in the family was curious about the recalled family, no one took the initiative to jump out and ask the upper echelons.
And Zhou Fan, who stayed in the small bamboo house, has been out almost day and night in the past few days, and has already explored the surrounding geographical environment.
These days, he occasionally runs through the door, chatting with those who are more talkative, asking for news.
Based on the news obtained these days, Zhou Fan finally found out all the basic situations in the ancestral land.
They are now located at the foot of the mountain, and a large area of small bamboo huts is just a temporary residence.
On that majestic peak, there is a city built against the mountain.
The castle is inhabited by the clansmen of the main vein and the branch veins, and it is said that there is an ancient castle in the center of the castle.
The huge castle was the core of the Zhou clan's power, and only high-ranking people were qualified to live in the castle.
The ancestral land of the Zhou clan is extremely vast, there are grasslands where cattle and sheep and other herbivores can be raised, and there is also fertile land where grain and vegetables can be grown.
It can be said that the ancestral land of the Zhou family is not much different from the outside world.
The only difference is probably the blood moon hanging high in the sky, and every night, when the faint blood light envelops the ancestral land, Zhou Fan always has a feeling of hair in his heart.
He always felt like there was a pair of invisible eyes staring at him in the dark.
Every time he quietly left the small bamboo forest, he felt that the ancestral land after night had become a little gloomy, which made people can't help but tremble.
There is a forbidden place in the ancestral land of the Zhou family called the Cold Ice Valley, where it is heavily guarded and ordinary people are not allowed to enter it at all.
If you trespass, I'm afraid there is only one dead end.
In the few days that Zhou Fan was out day and night, there was a news within the Zhou clan.
That is, this time the Zhou clan is about to choose a new patriarch, and this new patriarch will be selected from the younger generation.
For the sake of fairness, all the younger generations of the main vein and the branch vein will be pitted against each other, and the strongest one will eventually be selected to become the new patriarch.
As soon as the news was released, the entire young generation of the Zhou family was boiling.
That is the position of the patriarch, almost the most noble and powerful person in the Zhou family, who doesn't want to sit in that position?
For a time, the entire Zhou family was surging, and the younger generation was even more enthusiastic.
Only Zhou Fan was not interested, he came to the Zhou family this time to find news of his parents, grandfather and even his little sister.
In order not to arouse suspicion, he is actually extremely low-key these days.
But these days he has found nothing, although he has some speculation in his heart, but in order not to reveal his identity, he still chooses to wait for the opportunity.
"Assemble them all!"
Early in the morning, a loud shout came from outside the small bamboo house where Zhou Fan and others lived.
Everyone walked out of the house, and only then did they see that the person who came turned out to be the Twelfth Elder Zhou Cangrong and the Ninth Elder Zhou Qingshan.
"Meet the Nine Elders!"
"Meet the Twelve Elders!"
Zhou Fan, who was in the crowd, followed everyone to salute, but felt an unkind gaze fall on him.
He followed his feelings and looked, only then did he find Zhou Lang behind Zhou Cangrong.
That guy obviously thought that Zhou Fan had ruined his good deeds, so he kept holding a grudge now.
"Don't talk nonsense! This time, I will take you into the ancestral city to register, and I will arrange a place for you to live when I go back, and you can just follow the order! ”
"Yes......"
After the elder of the green shirt hurriedly explained two sentences, everyone followed him out of the bamboo forest.
That Zhou Lang also knew that the occasion was wrong, so although there was resentment in his eyes, he did not embarrass Zhou Fan.
Zhou Yitong was pale, and every time she looked at Zhou Lang's sloppy gaze, she secretly clenched her fists angrily.
"Ignore him!"
"It's just a clown!"
Zhou Fan's faint voice sounded, and while comforting Zhou Yitong, he seemed to be deliberately provoking Zhou Lang.
"You're looking for death!"
Sure enough, Zhou Lang was furious when he heard this, so he wanted to do it directly to Zhou Fan.
"Don't mess up today's arrangements for me!"
At this time, Zhou Cangrong's cold gaze fell on Zhou Lang, as if there was something in his words to remind him.
When Zhou Lang heard this, he immediately withdrew the forbidden qi that was about to erupt, lowered his head and did not dare to look at his grandfather.
And Zhou Fan, who was following the team, frowned secretly, but he didn't take Elder Zhou Cangrong's words to heart.
The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, if he is really urgent, he will definitely be sure to shoot Zhou Cangrong and Zhou Lang, who don't know whether they are alive or dead.
is the so-called artist who is bold, so he didn't act rashly, and planned to see what tricks Zhou Cangrong wanted to play today.
