Chapter 141: The Might of the Li Family's Ancestor
Seeing Caroline stunned with a shocked face, Li He turned his head and glared at Li Hao with a stern gaze, and then said to Caroline in a soft voice: "Little girl, don't be frightened by this kid's words, in fact, I'm just a dying old guy, who has been breathing for many years." ”
As he spoke, Li He looked down at the lower half of his wooden body, sighed and said: "Even if it is a heavenly position, it is difficult to escape fate, and after all, it will become a wisp of dead soul in the long river of history." ”
From the words of the half-cut old man in front of her, Caroline could feel the unwillingness to doom and the helplessness of not being able to change her fate.
For the old man sighing helplessly, Li Hao stepped forward and comforted: "Ancestor, you don't have to be so pessimistic, maybe among those outsiders, there are really people who have obtained the inheritance of the metal city, and can have a way to solve your current predicament, and even help you defeat the demon god in the depths of the forest, open up the forest road, and allow you to return to your homeland." ”
Hearing Li Hao's comforting words, a smile appeared on Li He's face, and he looked at Caroline charitantly before he said to Li Hao: "Hao'er, you are a good boy, more caring than your brothers and sisters, and elders, but I know very well that none of you want to go back to the East with me." ”
Broken by Li He's heart, Li Hao knelt down in front of the high platform in panic, and hurriedly explained to Li He: "Ancestor, I, I, it's not that I don't want to go back with you, it's just that it's just ......"
Seeing Li Hao's hesitant appearance of wanting to explain, Li He interrupted him with a wry smile and said, "Hehe, you don't have to explain, I understand, I understand." ”
"You have lived in the forest since you were a child, and you have been exposed to the language and civilization of the Western Continent, although the magical civilization has been cut off, you still identify more with the Western Continent, and it is understandable that you are not willing to return to the East with me, I am not blaming you. ”
Although Li He clearly said that he did not blame. But Li Hao still didn't dare to get up, and Li He didn't pay attention to it, but said to Caroline with a smile: "Girl, those partners of yours are quite bold, in order to save you, they actually arrested the genius children of several big clans in the city in the forest, and even planned to encourage those weak groups in the forest to rebel together." ”
Li Hao, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said disdainfully: "Hmph, it's just a swarm of ants." The light of the rice grain also wants to compete with the bright moon? ”
Hearing Li He's words and Li Hao's disdainful ridicule, Caroline understood that Li He was not joking with herself, and Lucius was trying to find a way to rescue her.
But after thinking about it, she thought of Li He, who had the Heavenly Rank Saint Rank on the high platform, and knew the terrible nature of the Heaven Rank Holy Order, and she didn't want to see Lu Xiusi and the others, after entering the ancient castle, being suppressed by Li He of the Heaven Rank Saint Rank.
I watched Caroline's expression flicker. Li He could naturally guess that Caroline not only wanted her companions to come to the rescue, but also worried that Li He, a Heavenly Saint Rank powerhouse, would make a move, and her contradictory mood could be described as overflowing. Caroline's contradictory and tangled expression was very cute in Li He's eyes.
After a moment of silence and a long time after looking at the tangled Caroline, Li He smiled and said, "Little girl, don't worry." I won't do it casually, and I won't lower myself to suppress your companions, if it's my juniors. Even the rebellion of your companions and the weaker ones cannot cope with it, so it is time for something to change the pattern of the forest. ”
"Old Ancestor......" Hearing Li He's words, Li Hao couldn't help but let out an exclamation, but before he could say the words later, he was blocked back by Li He's stern gaze.
Li Hao lowered his head helplessly, not daring to contradict Li He, although he was deeply loved by Li He, but Li Hao knew very well in his heart that if he crossed Li He's bottom line, he would also be punished by Li He.
But thinking of Li He's promise just now, Li Hao was still a little angry, turned his head and glanced at Caroline, his eyes undisguised his anger.
Even if he doesn't have a harmonious relationship with the rest of the Li family, it is impossible to watch the family fall, so Li Hao has a deep resentment towards Caroline in his heart.
It's just that in front of his ancestor Li He, Li Hao didn't dare to do anything to Caroline, after all, Li He had already spoken and would not hurt Caroline, and he had already indicated that he would not participate in the upcoming war in the forest, obviously Li He had his own plans, and Li Hao could not contradict and disobey.
Caroline saw Li Hao's resentful expression in her eyes, and did not tell Li He, but secretly decided in her heart that she must be on guard against Li Hao.
In fact, Li He saw everything in his eyes, but he didn't break it, in Li He's opinion, his favorite junior Li Hao, still lacks some experience, has not really met opponents, and has not really suffered losses.
Li He could feel that the young man who entered the misty forest with Caroline had unlimited potential and could become a good opponent who constantly knocked Li Hao.
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside the hall, and when the footsteps were heard, the three people in the hall looked at each other almost at the same time, and the three of them looked at each other very tacitly.
After a brief exchange of glances, Li Hao whispered to Li He: "Ancestor, I'm afraid those guys are here, do you need us to avoid them first?"
Li He nodded and said, "Well, you guys should avoid it first, I'm afraid that the news of Li Si's arrest has been transmitted, and I believe that all the clans in the city in the forest are a little unable to sit still, so they will think of me, an old fellow, hehe, since they are here, then listen to what they have to say." ”
With Li He's approval, Li Hao got up from the ground, turned his head and waved his hand to Caroline, who was still a little unclear, and said, "Come with me quickly, if you don't want to be discovered by others, you have escaped." ”
Listening to Li Hao's words, Caroline suddenly came to her senses and frowned slightly, but she still took a step and quickly followed Li Hao, who was walking behind the high platform of the main hall.
In the shadows after Li Hao and Caroline turned into the high platform, a dull knock on the door resounded throughout the hall, and at the same time, a confident voice came from outside the door of the hall: "Ancestor, Mingyu has something to ask to see." ”
"Mingyu, you brought so many people here, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as asking to see you, come in, I really want to hear what is going on with you people. ”
Li Mingyu was furious when he learned that Li Si had been arrested, and he had already planned to personally punish those foreign intruders who dared to do whatever they wanted in the forest.
But before Li Mingyu took people out of the castle, the other ethnic groups in the city in the forest had already come to the door, and each ethnic group had sent enough strength and weight to the people, feeling that the ancient castle was first for Li Si and those people to be arrested, and secondly, he also wanted to see Li Mingyu's attitude. Or to persecute Li Mingyu.
Li He, the ancestor of the Li family, has not shown up for many years, and the leaders of the Li family in recent generations do not have the strength to suppress the tribes in the city in the forest, so all the clans in the city in the forest are a little ready to move.
Previously, all ethnic groups sent young and outstanding children to deal with those foreign intruders with Li Si, in fact, they wanted to take advantage of Li Si's incident to severely break the face of the Li family.
But no one would have thought that not only would they not be able to disgrace the Li family, but they would compensate the outstanding young juniors of all ethnic groups, and they would be arrested by outsiders together with Li Si.
It made the entire city in the forest lose face. The various clans naturally sent this anger to the Li family first, after all, the Li family has gradually weakened over the years, and all the clans also want to take advantage of this matter to get a good touch of the Li family's bottom, and then make a plan to deal with the Li family.
As the helmsman of the contemporary family, Li Mingyu naturally knew very well the purpose of the various ethnic groups sending people here, and he also knew the calculations of the other ethnic groups in the city in the forest.
So he didn't go to the other elders, but chose to bring these people directly to see Li He, just to use Li He to deter the tribes in the city in the forest. Let the various ethnic groups living in the city in the forest understand that even if the Li family is not as strong as before, it is still not something they can challenge.
Originally, I heard Li Mingyu say that he wanted to take everyone to meet the ancestor of the Li family. Although the people of all ethnic groups looked solemn on the surface, they were more or less disdainful in their hearts.
After all, the old ancestor of the Li family has not come forward for so many years, and all ethnic groups are speculating whether the other party is still alive, and those old guys in various ethnic groups analyze it. Even if the old ancestor of the Li family is still alive, I am afraid that his strength is already not as good as before, otherwise how could he let the clans in the city of the forest gradually grow. Gradually encroaching on and weakening the power of the Li family?
Therefore, before coming to the main hall, the people sent by various clans did not have much fear in their hearts, but planned to join forces in front of the ancestors of the Li family to give Li Mingyu a dismount.
However, now that they heard the majestic voice inside the door, the people of all ethnic groups suddenly felt terrified, and from the thick voice that came from the door alone, it was enough to judge that the old ancestor of the Li family was not only alive, but also had extremely terrifying strength.
Everyone in front of the door secretly looked at each other, and they all saw fear in each other's eyes, and many people wanted to leave at this moment, but they all knew very well that since they had arrived here, it was impossible for them to leave casually.
Even if they have deep fear in their hearts, they must walk through that door with a hard head, otherwise they and the clan behind them will probably be deliberately suppressed by the Li family.
"Squeak, boom, boom......" The heavy stone door slowly opened, and the dim hall inside the door suddenly ignited flames, illuminating the entire hall clearly, and the people of all ethnic groups standing outside the door could clearly see that at the end of the corridor of the main hall, the figure of their ancestors sitting on the high platform was legendary.
When the people of all ethnic groups outside the door were stunned, Li Mingyu said very unceremoniously: "Everyone, since the ancestor is invited, then you don't have to be polite, please enter the temple, if you have anything to say, you can say it directly to the ancestor." ”
Li Mingyu's words woke everyone up, and everyone squeezed out a smile on their faces, and walked towards the hall with difficulty, and at the same time, they all secretly scolded Li Mingyu for treacherous in their hearts.
Walking to the high platform in the hall, the people sent by all ethnic groups did not dare to slack off, and quickly knelt down on one knee one by one and saluted Li He on the high platform.
Li He naturally understood the purpose of these people in front of him, and he was also very clear about Li Mingyu's plan to bring them to see him, so he waved his hand lightly and said: "Okay, speaking of which, you are all the descendants of my deceased, you don't need so many courtesies, get up, tell me, what is the matter with so many of you coming to see me?"
In the face of Li He's question, the people sent by various ethnic groups got up and stood in front of the high platform with their heads bowed, not knowing how to answer at all. (To be continued......)
