Chapter 3: The Messenger of the Lishan Tribe
Chu Feng looked down at his lower abdomen, and suddenly felt something in the dantian shake slightly. At the same time, the stone tablet on the altar in the village flashed, and a vague dragon shadow flashed, but in an instant, it regained its ancient vicissitudes of life, and did not attract the attention of others, but Chu Yunxi took in this scene.
"Companion Bronze Bell!"
Chu Feng was shocked in his heart, in the past two months, such abnormalities often occurred in the dantian, in the past, he didn't understand the situation in his body, but now he already knew that it was the associated bronze bell vibrating, and he couldn't help but be full of anticipation.
If he wanted to stimulate his bloodline that had been silent for several years, Chu Feng couldn't think of any other way, and the accompanying bronze bell was his only hope. This bell was born with him, connected by blood, it is definitely not a mortal thing, maybe it really has magical abilities!
At this moment, several figures appeared on the path outside the village, led by a lean black-bearded old man with bright eyes, followed by two young men in their twenties, all dressed in brocade clothes and with indifferent faces.
"The envoy is coming to the village, and the old man and the others are not far away, so don't be surprised to look at the messenger!" The old village chief led several men in the village to walk out quickly, greeting the old man and the two young people, with awe in his words and deeds.
"Well, you are the village chief of this Yuanlong Ancient Village?" The old man at the head glanced at the village chief lightly, and then began to look at the ancient village, his eyes quickly and naturally fell on the altar in the center of the village, and stared at the broken stone tablet on the altar and kept looking.
"Lord Hui Envoy, Old Decay Long Ze, is the head of this village. The village chief respectfully replied that he was an old man with gray hair and a wrinkled face. After the words fell, he looked at the two sturdy men beside him and introduced: "This is the leader of our village's hunting team......
"Well, I see, it's routine to be here today. The old man nodded, didn't glance at the two middle-aged men at all, and said, "Over the years, have there been outstanding juniors in your village? If the potential is not weak, and there is a chance to be favored by us, in the future, when you go to the headquarters of the Lishan tribe, you will be vigorously cultivated." ”
When the village chief heard this, he pointed to a group of children gathered in the center of the village and said, "Lord Messenger, all the juniors in our village are here, but there are a few with good potential, only thirteen years old, and one arm has the strength of 5,000 catties. ”
"Thirteen years old, five thousand catties of strength with one arm?" The young man behind the old man had a smile on the corner of his mouth, his expression was disdainful, he shook his head, and said: "It's too weak, it's not a person with potential, and it's difficult to have any geniuses in a small village like yours." ”
The two middle-aged men beside the village chief were stunned and opened their mouths to argue, but they were secretly stopped by the village chief. The lean black-bearded old man walked towards the middle of the village with two young men, looking at a group of children who were working hard to get fit.
Snotty Baby, Erhuzi and the others were the first time they saw the people of the Lishan tribe, and when they saw them dressed brightly and their faces were indifferent, they were both envious and angry in their hearts. However, for the sake of the future of the village, in order to be favored by the people of the Lishan tribe, they still tried their best to show themselves.
"Drink!"
Erhuzi had extraordinary strength, reached out and grabbed the edge of a stone jar, stretched his arms, and in a roar, the stone jar rose from the ground, and was soon lifted above his head.
"Boom!"
Erhuzi walked with both hands holding the stone jar, and his footsteps fell, like a mountain shaking the earth, the whole village shook with it, and every step he took would leave a shallow footprint on the ground.
The indifference of the people from the Lishan tribe stimulated Erhuzi, and he wanted to fight for the village, let them know that their village was not as unbearable as they said, and also wanted to prove that he had a strong physique and ability.
"Hmm......" The lean old man of the Lishan tribe sighed lightly, and said: "This stone jar is enough for 10,000 catties, at the age of thirteen, just refining the body realm double heaven peak, it has such power, and it can be regarded as a leader in various small villages." It's just that for a big force like our Lishan tribe, such descendants are like carp crossing the river, and there are countless of them. ”
Erhuzi put down the stone jar held above his head with a bang, and the powerful shock force caused the ground to shake several times again, and the sky was full of smoke and dust. The words of the old envoy of the Lishan tribe were a big blow to him, and it was very uncomfortable to prove himself so desperately, but he was still looked down upon by others.
"That's it, it seems that we can't select talents from your village, and in all the villages within a radius of hundreds of miles, only Chai Village has a little genius who can still be seen. The old envoy of the Lishan tribe had a cold voice, then looked at the village chief and said, "By the way, the hunting boundary between you and Chai Village must be changed, go back ten miles, and redivide it." ”
The old village chief and the two middle-aged men have all changed color, and the ancient village of Yuanlong has guarded the surrounding dozens of miles for generations, making a living by hunting. There are few large animals about ten miles around the village, and each hunt requires more than ten miles to go out.
The boundary between the village and Chai Village is about 40 li away from the village, which means that the hunting range of the village is only 30 li, and if you retreat another 10 li, the hunting will become much more difficult in the future, and the whole village will probably not have enough food because of this.
"Lord Messenger, you can't do this, the hunting range of our village is only thirty miles in total......" The village chief was very angry in his heart, but he couldn't express it, and the two middle-aged men beside him couldn't help but clench their fists.
"This matter has been decided, you don't need to say more, do as I say. The old envoy of the Lishan tribe looked indifferent, and then said: "I am doing this for the good of your village, and now there are juniors in Chai Village, if you don't do what I say, you will inevitably have conflicts with them in the future, and what will be the outcome at that time, I don't need to say that you should also know." ”
In the village, all the people who heard this were extremely angry, but in front of the envoy of the Lishan tribe, everyone dared to be angry and did not dare to speak. There are only more than 100 people in Yuanlong Ancient Village, and tens of thousands of people in the Lishan tribe, with such masters, there is no comparison and they cannot fight against it.
The village chief wanted to say something, intending to make the envoy change his decision, but the three envoys of the Lishan tribe stopped talking, and all turned their attention to the broken stone tablet in the center of the square altar.
"I've long heard that there is a ruined stone tablet in Yuanlong Ancient Village, which is carved with ancient runes and indistinguishable patterns, and the rumors are true, and it is true. A young messenger whispered to himself, and then added, "But I do not see anything peculiar about this broken stele. ”
"I also think it's just an ordinary stone tablet, but it's old, and the runes and patterns on it have been blurred by the erosion of time. As he spoke, the other young envoy stepped forward, climbed the altar and walked towards the broken stone tablet, and said, "But even some of the elders in the clan say that this tablet has a secret, so why don't we pull it up and bring it back to the tribe to study it!"
"Don't!" the whole village was shocked and angry, and the old village chief exclaimed directly, "The messenger must not, this monument has been worshiped and worshiped by our village for generations, and it is also our totem, you can't take it away!"
"Huh?" The young messenger who stepped onto the altar and stretched out his hand to pull out the monument suddenly turned around, his eyes were like knives, and a cold light flashed, staring coldly at the old village chief, and a cold killing intent instantly spread.
"Forget it, Rigler, you get down quickly. This monument is a thing that has been worshiped by Yuanlong Ancient Village for generations, and no one has touched it for so many years, it has its own reason, you can't be reckless. The lean old man of the Lishan tribe stopped the young envoy with a word, and then looked at the old village chief and said, "Long Ze, we have one more thing here, I heard that you came here four years ago with a mother and son, but is there such a thing?"
"This ......" The old village chief's heart suddenly suddenly, he didn't know why the lean old envoy asked about Chu Feng's mother and son, but he had to answer truthfully: "Back to the envoy, but there is such a thing." ”
"Where do they live?"
"It's in the little hut over there. The old village chief stretched out his hand to the small thatched hut on the edge of the village with a small bamboo forest, and began to worry in his heart, and said, "I wonder how the messenger knows about the mother and son, is there something wrong with them?"
"That's not what you should ask!" The old envoy glanced at the old village chief lightly, and then walked towards the small thatched hut where Chu Feng lived with the two young envoys, and said, "None of you are allowed to follow, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
In the small thatched hut, Chu Feng stood beside Chu Yunxi, watching the three envoys of the Lishan tribe walking towards here, he was very surprised, raised a somewhat pale face to look at Chu Yunxi, and said, "Mother, how can they know about us?"
Chu Yunxi didn't answer, and gently pushed Chu Feng and said, "Feng'er, you go to the back room." ”。
"Mother......" Chu Feng looked at Chu Yunxi with some concern, and said, "Feng'er doesn't leave, Feng'er is here to accompany you." ”
"Obedient, they are old acquaintances with their mothers, just to catch up on the old days, you hurry up and go to the back room. ”
"Hmm. ”
Chu Feng didn't insist on staying, and just as he entered the inner room, the three messengers had already come outside the hut.
"The old man Li Ben Jiancuo came to visit Fairy Chu. ”
"Come in. ”
The door creaked and was pushed open from the outside, and the old envoy entered the small thatched hut with two young envoys, while Chu Yunxi sat on the bamboo chair directly above the room, looked at them lightly, and said, "Did Li Shan or Li Shu let you come?"
"Hehe, Fairy Chu, I haven't seen you for four years, and I just asked the old man when we met, is this your way of hospitality?" The thin old man Li Benjiancuo casually pulled over a bamboo chair and sat down, and said: "Fairy, back then, you didn't say goodbye, so that the patriarch and others were worried, and it took two years to find out the traces of your mother and son. ”
Chu Yunxi looked at Li Ben Jiancuo and the two young envoys lightly, a flash of fire flashed in the depths of his beautiful eyes, and said: "Judging from the casual movements you made after you entered the house, it should be Li Shu who asked you to come, and now you see that I am not as weak as you imagined, are you disappointed?"
The muscles on Li Benjiancuo's face stiffened, and then he smiled again: "Fairy Chu, don't get me wrong, it's not what you think." It's just that Fairy Chu should also understand that this piece of heaven and earth does not accept outsiders, after six years, your divine power has been suppressed too much, and in a few years, I am afraid that it will be difficult to protect itself. ”
"Yes, Fairy Chu, our Lishan clan also has some kindness to you, why don't you hand over the Divine Recipe scripture to us, it is better than being taken away by others in the future. Moreover, we can also protect you after your divine power has been completely suppressed, and more importantly, we can protect your crippled child. A young envoy from the Lishan tribe took over the topic, with a hint of coercion in his words.
