Chapter 31: Kicked Out of the Banquet
In the blink of an eye, it was already night, Cheng Siping cleaned up, and by the way, he turned himself upside down a little, and Shi Shiran walked down the mountain beam. It was the first time he had come down from the mountain beam and returned to the village. At this time, all the people in the village gathered in the middle of the village to hold a bonfire. The Golden Horn Fire Ox is a second-level or above mysterious beast, with strong strength, and the tonic effect on cultivators is also better, and it is rare for Ningyuan Village to hunt one back. Therefore, when the hunt is reached, a banquet is held, and the whole village gathers to celebrate.
Cheng Siping walked to the crowd, and then found a place in the corner to get up, waiting for the party to start in a while, and the village chief Zhu Sheng came out to distribute the beef. As a former otaku, Cheng Siping obviously knows how to interpret the word low-key. The reason why he hid was so that he would not be noticed by other villagers. It's a pity that in response to that sentence, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop, he wants to hide, but the other villagers don't let him hide.
Ningyuan Village is actually not a village, the so-called village is just their own name. The entire village is only a population of more than 100 people, basically the Zhu family, and the descendants of loyal servants to the Zhu family. When this small village was first established, the Zhu clan accounted for three or four percent of the entire village, and the rest were all their servants. But as time passed, the servants who had been expelled from the Zhu clan gradually left here and found another way to make a living. After two or three generations, the demographic composition of the whole village has changed completely. Now the Zhu clan has become the main body of the village, accounting for more than sixty percent, and less than forty percent are left like Cheng Siping's predecessor A Weak. Corresponding to the change in population composition, there is also the distrust and even hostility of the Zhu clan towards these people who are not their own clan.
As a foreigner, both parents died, and there was no cultivation. Cheng Siping's predecessor, A Weak, has always been the target of cold eyes and bullying by the Zhu clan. Otherwise, that Ah weak would not have moved out of the village and hid on the mountain beams to live. At this time, Cheng Siping returned to the village, and inevitably got the treatment that Ah Weak had endured before.
Cheng Siping didn't care about this, and didn't hear the ridicule of the Zhu clansmen. His posture is quite like the meaning of the eight winds that can't be blown by the eight winds, sitting on the purple golden lotus. When the people of the Zhu clan saw this, they were very depressed. This sarcasm and stinging have no effect, people are just there, what can you do.
Seeing that Cheng Siping couldn't do anything, Zhu Meng, who was in charge of maintaining the banquet scene, couldn't stand it anymore, and stood up and coughed lightly and said, "Hey, Ah weak, you can't cultivate and don't cultivate, it's a waste for you to eat this Golden Horn Fire Beef." In my opinion, you don't want to share that portion, just drink a bowl of soup and leave. I'll arrange for someone to send you some clothes, salt, and so on, as compensation, and you see how it goes. ”
"The second village chief is right, he doesn't look at what he is, and he is embarrassed to share a piece of hot beef. ”
"Waste, you have to have the consciousness of waste, and the fire beef doesn't make you spoiled. ”
"That's right, to say that this thing is thick enough, I actually want to rub my face and want to rub it, it's really hehe. ”
"Let's get out of here, don't be embarrassed. ”
The other Zhu clansmen also helped, and the disdain on their faces was not concealed at all. But there are also a few people who can't bear it and want to argue for "A Weak", but when the words came to their mouths, they swallowed them back. As for those who are not from the Zhu clan, some people reacted coldly, some people couldn't bear it, and some people were indignant at the attack that Cheng Siping received.
"Oh, that's right, then I'll go. Cheng Siping didn't mean to be angry, he drank the bowl of fire beef soup in front of him, turned around and left, without dragging mud and water at all.
Cheng Siping just walked on the front foot, and a sturdy old man on the back foot, accompanied by the little girl Guoguo, hurriedly walked over. When the other villagers saw the old man coming, they all got up and saluted and shouted in unison, "Village chief." ”
This old man was Zhu Sheng, the head of Ningyuan Village, he nodded to everyone in response, and then glanced at the banquet spot, his brows furrowed, and asked, "Ah weak, where did Ah weak go." I specially asked Guoguo to inform him in the morning, why didn't he come?"
The villagers who squeezed Cheng Siping away just now all changed their expressions and realized that something was wrong. These people's eyes couldn't help but focus on Jumong, after all, he was the one who picked the head.
"That, big brother, Ah is weak and can't cultivate, and he hasn't cultivated, so it's a waste for him to eat this hot beef. So, so I told him to go back first. "From the bottom of his heart, Jumeng doesn't want to withstand this thunder. As soon as Zhu Sheng entered the banquet, others didn't ask, so he looked for Ah Weak first, which shows his attention. And as the initiator of forcing Ah Weak away, he doesn't know what punishment he will face from his brother. However, looking at the situation at the scene, he can't stand up either. In the end, I had to bite the bullet and come up.
"You ......" Zhu Sheng raised his hand angrily, and wanted to slap the youngest brother. However, halfway through his hand, he forcibly put it down again, and glared at him angrily. Immediately, Zhu Sheng turned his face, glanced at the other villagers angrily, and said coldly: "Do you still remember how Ah Weak's parents died? How did Ah Weak's grandfather die? If it weren't for their sacrifice, you people, as well as your parents, would have died a long time ago." Your conscience has you all eaten the dogs?"
The villagers lowered their heads in shame by Zhu Sheng's words, and did not dare to look directly at them. Zhu Sheng raised his hand and slapped a slap on a bluestone beside him, smashing the stone to pieces, and said angrily with a little roar: "People can't forget their roots, they must be grateful." In the future, if any of you dare to bully Ah Weak, don't blame me for being heavy. ”
After speaking, he turned his head to Zhu Meng and said, "You are too unqualified to be the head of these two villages, so I will remove you from your position for half a year to see the after-effects." If you don't repent, you can be an ordinary villager. ”
"Yes, big brother. Jumeng lowered his head, his heart full of resentment, but he didn't dare to say a word. He knows his identity and status, although he holds the position of the second village chief, he is only forcibly pulled up because of his seniority. In terms of ability and trust, in this Ningyuan Village, he actually doesn't have much. It can be said that if it weren't for his eldest brother Zhu Sheng, his position as the second village chief would have been replaced long ago. At this time, Zhu Sheng wanted to punish him, he had no other way to choose except to accept his fate.
"I will cut two catties of fire beef, and let Guoguo send it to Ah Weak. After Zhu Sheng reprimanded his younger brother, he turned around and said, "Although our Zhu clan has fallen, we can't lose the style we should have. We can't chill the hearts of our faithful servants who were born and died. I'm disappointed in your actions to Ah Weak tonight, and I don't want to see another time. ”
After saying this, Zhu Sheng turned his back and left from the crowd, and said at the same time: "Zhu He, you will preside over tonight's fire bull banquet, I won't participate." ”
When everyone heard this, their expressions moved. Zhu Shenghui said this, obviously he was really angry. The Zhu clan people who ridiculed Cheng Siping just now finally regretted it a little at this time......
