I'm Liu Bei.

"You have a good rest. Tomorrow will be the fourth day. "Yaya said very melancholy. Presumably worried that grandpa would accept the punishment of the saint.

"What is the punishment of the Holy Maiden?"

"The Holy Maiden is the goddess who lives in the holy river, and she has blessed our people with a happy life for generations to come. Her punishment was to sink the whole person into the river for three days and three nights, and accept the baptism of conscience. When the baptism is successful, the man is alive and can give us the words of the Holy Maiden; If a person dies, he has failed to baptize. Since no one ever succeeded, the tribe called it a punishment. ”

"Wouldn't that be murder? Who else can not die in the water for three days and three nights? ”

Yaya didn't answer. I asked, "Is the holy river you are talking about the White River?" ”

Yaya nodded silently.

Today is the third day of her grandfather's hunger strike. As soon as the three-day period expires and the token does not appear again, the elder of the Zhao clan will drown him in the name of the Holy Maiden. Of course, Yaya knew that this was a conspiracy by the two of them to trick her into handing over the token, but Yaya still valued the family affection of her grandson. Now her grandfather is her only relative.

"Your grandfather did this to you, and he wants to save him?"

"You also said that he is my grandfather."

"So, from the moment you decided to heal me with the Elixir, you decided to let me succeed you as the patriarch. I guess right? ”

"You're a very smart man. I ask myself that there is nothing to hide from you. ”

"Each other, each other. I wonder how sure you are about my successor patriarch. ”

"Half."

"How can it be so little?" It's very puzzling. Isn't it okay to have a token?

"Elder Zhao has always colluded with Elder Shan, and now Elder Baili may have fallen to their side."

"Elder Barry? Could it be Xiao Ru's ......"

"Xiao Ru's grandfather is the Baili Clan Elder. Things may not be so bad, though. Elder Baili has always done things fairly, and he may not listen to Xiao Ru's crying. ”

Although Baili Ru will not tell me and Yaya's plan, if she says something bad about the Baili clan elders, it is very likely that the three elders will be promoted to the position of my patriarch.

"With the support of you and Brother Li, plus the patriarch token, it shouldn't be bad, right?"

"It's not wise to foresee this kind of thing. No matter how smart a person is, he or she will be the first to plan for future events. I'm tired, I'll come back to you tomorrow. ”

Yaya threw down this sentence and left the house. I was left alone on the couch, looking up at the little beam. It's hard to even ask, "When will the token be given to me". Not sure where she'll sleep tonight.

The night was extremely hot, as if it had been burned by fire. Beads of sweat soaked all over my body. When the nerves are sleepy and can no longer sleep, they fall asleep deeply.

When I opened my eyes again, I felt that my body was cold, like lying in an ice kiln. I touched the quilt: wet.

I sweated too much last night, and it became cold overnight. I couldn't help but lift the quilt and jump off the wooden couch.

Looking at my hands and feet, I shouted with ecstasy, "I can finally move freely." ”

Stretched out his hand and stomped his foot, without a trace of abnormality. I sighed in my heart at the miracle of the holy medicine, and if I could meet the divine doctor Hua Tuo in the future, I would have to ask for advice on the pharmacology.

When I turned around, I saw that the curtain was already shining outside. Happily lifting the curtain of the door, a simple hall comes into view. A long small incense case, a simple seat, and a few simple pieces of farm furniture.

The sky outside the house was bright, and I strode out, and it was a small field for drying grain. The surrounding green hills are towering in the sky and lush. Only a sheep intestine trail in front of it leads directly down the mountain.

At the foot of the hill is a village, staggered on uneven terrain. In front of the village is a wide and long river, which should be the holy river in their mouth, the white river called by the outside world.

Embracing the mountains and rivers here, it is really a good place for tourism and camping.

I took a deep breath and felt much more refreshed. Looking at this place, it is indeed a paradise, if you can escape here, it will definitely be a great luxury and enjoyment. It's a pity that I can never stay in this kind of place. My end is either success or a horse leather shroud. In short, it is insulated from this paradise.

He was sighing, and his voice remembered from behind. I'm all too familiar with this sound.

"You're finally ready to act!"

When I turned around, I saw Yaya and Xiaoru walking towards me holding hands with smiles on their faces.

What's going on? Yesterday I was still a rival in love, but today I will hold hands and walk harmoniously. Could it really be a "woman's heart needle"?

However, you can guess what happened presumably. Yaya didn't return overnight, so she must have had a heart-to-heart conversation with Xiaoru all night. I'm really curious to know what the conclusion is. Is it to divide Li Fujun into two shares, or to give it to someone.

I smiled back: "It's polite to be a late student." "Pondering that the ancients saw girls all pretending to be B like this.

"Come less!" Baili Ru was savagely arrogant, and after speaking, he glanced at the girl, and the two pursed their lips and laughed arrogantly.

"Hehe~~Hehe~~" There is no choice but to giggle with them.

"Thank you." Yaya said very sincerely.

"Thank you." Bailiru also thanked shyly. I really didn't expect that she would have such a shy time when she has always been savage. As long as she is not savage, her appearance is still very attractive.

"You ......," I said, pointing at them both and slurding.

"Liu Bei."

Li Fujun walked up from the trail, full of sunshine and high spirits, sweeping away yesterday's worries and depression. He tossed a sign in his hand. I took it and took a closer look. The token is made of an unknown piece of iron, which is very heavy, and is more than twice as heavy as ordinary iron objects of the same volume.

The brand is dark red all over and has a quadrangular angular shape. It is five inches wide, eight inches long, and about half an inch thick. The front is engraved with the character "Li" in Zhao seal style. When I was studying Lishu at my third brother's house, Zhang Fei talked about the writing of Zhao Seal in order to let me understand the evolution of the character "Li". On the back of the token is a pattern of a cavalryman, the knight sits on a galloping horse, waving a long sword and pointing straight ahead, revealing a domineering spirit that surrounds the enemy.

Could this person on the token be Li Mu?

"My token. Help Brother Liu ascend to the position of patriarch. Li Fujun stood between Yaya and Xiaoru and said with a relaxed expression.

In ancient times, men could have multiple wives, and it seems that it is not false. Only women in ancient times could accept this. Therefore, the second daughter who was supposed to be staged was quietly extinguished by feudal etiquette. This is the only good thing I've ever seen feudalism do.

Now the result is not the best. It saves me guilt and trouble. If I want to chase Bailiru, I will definitely have to endure all the hardships. Besides, there are already people in my heart. Growing up in modern monogamy, I have learned to love only one woman. If you love two at the same time, it's really a headache for me.

Thinking of this, he smiled heartily: "Then congratulations to the three of you." ”

"Rejoice and rejoice." Li Fujun arched his hand.

"Now that the matter between the three of you has been resolved, the position of patriarch should be up to you, and my body has recovered, so I'll leave here." Although I said with a smile, I really wanted to be the patriarch. Not for anything else, just for the weapons and technology of the clan. It's just that the situation is forced to say so.

"No, if it weren't for Brother Liu's help, I'm afraid the three of us would have to live in pain for the rest of our lives." Li Fujun thanked.

"You deserve the position of patriarch." Yaya continued.

"Don't excuse yourself. Otherwise, Brother Fujun will blame me for being ignorant again. Xiao Ru said with some uneasiness.

"Where do you start?" I can't help but wonder.

Li Fujun said with some embarrassment: "Yesterday Xiaoru told me everything. Xiaoru was reckless yesterday, please don't be surprised by Brother Liu. ”

"Yesterday I was too selfish." I'm ashamed.

"No, Brother Liu's words yesterday made me pause. In the end, the Han court will not let our people live in peace here. If you want to escape this catastrophe, please also ask Brother Liu to help. ”

"Please don't shirk, the lives of more than 10,000 people in the whole clan will be saved by Brother Lao Liu." Yaya said.

"Yes. Yesterday I already told my grandfather, who said that Brother Bei's words were still to the point, and lamented that the people of the clan were blind and arrogant and thought that they could live in peace with the court, but they were beside the cliff and did not know it. Grandpa also said that no one but you can save the whole clan from the catastrophe. Bailiru said anxiously.

Really? That Baili Elder is so far-sighted?

"Okay, in that case, Liu Bei will definitely live up to everyone's expectations." Looking at the token in my hand and listening to their words, I stopped refusing to shirk. Because the weapons of the clan are so important to me. It will provide weapons support for my Super Warlord Path.

"Look, many people are flocking to the holy river down the mountain." Bailiru stretched out her hand and pointed down the mountain.

"Grandpa!" The girl shouted and ran down the path. Bai Liru also hurriedly followed.

"Brother Liu, we have to hurry. Otherwise, the third grandfather would not have been saved. Li Fujun said.

Seeing the anxious appearance of the three of them, I was thinking that the third grandfather was acting, so there was no need to be in such a hurry.
