Chapter Seventy-Nine: Patriarch Zhang
Li Sibai followed the original elder and walked out, and several people came over at the same time, led by a middle-aged man, seven feet tall, with a lofty spirit, followed by three old men, all of whom were about the same age as this original elder, presumably at the level of an elder.
"Patriarch, you're here. Elder Yuan stepped forward and nodded slightly to the middle-aged man.
"Elder Yuan is polite," the person known as the patriarch also hurriedly saluted Elder Yuan, and the three elders behind saw that Elder Yuan also saluted.
The patriarch looked at Li Sibai and said, "Little brother, you're awake, let's go into the house and talk." After that, he took the lead in the room just now, and several elders behind him also looked at Li Sibai with attention and walked in together.
The patriarch sat at the top, and the other four elders sat below.
Li Sibai saw that these people were all elders, and it was not good to sit and communicate with them, so he simply prepared to stand still.
And at this moment, the patriarch beckoned to Li Sibai with a smile and said:
"Little brother, come and sit here," he said, gesturing to the spot next to him.
Li Sibai was a little hesitant, he always felt a little inappropriate sitting next to him, looking at how many elders were there below.
However, he saw that the patriarch's eyes were firm, and it didn't seem like he was joking, so he reluctantly sat down.
"I am the patriarch of this village, my surname is Zhang, you can call me Patriarch Zhang. ”
Li Sibai hurriedly got up and arched his hand: "Patriarch Zhang, under Li Sibai, thank you for your previous rescue." ”
Patriarch Zhang nodded and continued: "Elder Yuan, you should already know each other, these three are also the elders of our village, they are Elder Ma, Elder Zhao, and Elder Chen. As he spoke, he gestured to the other three elders sitting below.
Si Bai had something in his heart, and he didn't look at the faces of the elders carefully, he only remembered that Elder Ma was very fat, Elder Chen was very tall, and Elder Zhao was full of silver hair.
Then salute them one by one, after all, they are all older than themselves, and they are the ones who saved themselves, so it is not wrong to pay more respects.
Seeing that he was not impetuous, he was modest and polite, and nodded lightly.
Without waiting for Li Sibai to speak, he continued: "Li Shaoxia, I heard that you also have a companion, and now your whereabouts are unknown, but is there such a thing?"
Li Sibai was looking for an opportunity to beg them to help find it, but he didn't expect the patriarch to speak first, and he was happy and hurriedly said: "Yes, patriarch, there is a six or seven-year-old girl who came with me, and she is my sister." She is still so young, and her strength is not strong, and she is worried about danger. I'm worried about this at the moment, and I hope the patriarch can help find the whereabouts of my little sister. ”
Patriarch Zhang nodded and said, "This matter is not difficult, as long as your sister is still in this village, we will definitely be able to find her." ”
When Sibai heard this, he felt a little lost....... This is the same as what the original elder said, everyone will look for this piece of affection, it seems that if you can't find it, then the bamboo forest still has to rely on yourself to find it.
When he had a plan in his heart, he didn't think about it anymore, restrained his mood, and tried not to let his mind be discovered, Sibai quickly thanked Patriarch Zhang.
Patriarch Zhang was not ambiguous, and immediately called a person named Le Chen next to him, who looked about the same age as Patriarch Zhang, and Patriarch Zhang explained carefully, and this person was about to set off.
Sibai was anxious, and he wanted to go too, so he said to Patriarch Zhang: "Patriarch, the injury on my body is not serious, I am really worried, let me go and find it together." ”
Patriarch Zhang said unhurriedly: "Li Shaoxia, you tell this person about the characteristics and situation of your sister, if it is within the bamboo forest of our Xizhu Village, we will definitely help you find it, and you don't have to go there in person." If not, it means that we can't do anything about it, and then you can make your own plans. Now you can rest here and wait for the good news, and I have some questions for you. ”
Li Sibai heard the other party say this, and there is indeed some truth, although he is almost healed now, but the true qi in his body has not yet recovered, and his body is not in the best state, if he really can't find Cai Yao later, if he wants to enter the bamboo forest, it is really as the other party said, he needs to take care of it.
So at the moment, the person who was looking for Cai Yao described Cai Yao in detail.
When the other party heard Li Sibai mention Cai Yao's glorious deeds of "eating", the other party was also stunned, and then the corners of his mouth twitched with a smile, did he say that his sister's brother was like this? is also described so seriously, I really don't know what this sister will think when she hears it.
However, this is all auxiliary information, Li Sibai made it clear that Cai Yao's dress, and the latter was almost clear.
"Li Shaoxia, rest assured, I, Lechen, will definitely live up to my mission," he said with a wave of his hand and walked out of the room.
Li Sibai settled down and asked: "Patriarch Zhang, may I ask if there is anything else that Li needs to do on my behalf, you have a life-saving grace for me, and now you are helping to find Cai Yao, although I don't know what the result is, but if you have any needs, just ask and arrange." ”
Patriarch Zhang smiled and nodded, the reason he promised was to reassure Li Sibai, and now Li Sibai also agreed so happily that he could be regarded as repaying the favor.
"There's nothing to do, I just have a few questions to ask Li Shaoxia. ”
"Tell me, as long as you know something, you will tell it all. ”
Patriarch Zhang looked at the four elders, their expressions were all solemn, but they all nodded at him slightly at this moment, obviously agreeing with him to continue.
Patriarch Zhang paused, and coughed lightly twice: "That's the case, I don't know where Li Shaoxia's sword came from?" As he spoke, their eyes all looked at the Xuantian Sword behind Li Sibai, and then they all stared at Li Sibai tightly.
Li Sibai's body was shocked, and five beams of eyes hit him at the same time, and this question suddenly involved his secret, he felt very tricky, and he didn't know what to do.
Is it really as unreserved as I just said? This involves a lot of secrets about him and the old tree spirit, and even the secrets of the Xuantian Sword Sect.
But if you don't tell the truth, now make up a story? Can these old rivers and lakes believe that if they don't tell it, they have saved themselves, and they have to make up lies to deceive, is this really good?
Li Sibai hesitated here, his head was already sweating, and he didn't know that he thought that his body had just recovered from the sweat.
"This... This..."
Seeing Li Sibai's hesitation, Patriarch Zhang said, "Could it be that Li Shaoxia has any ulterior secrets?" In this case, I will ask you to answer, you just need to say yes or no, this is always okay, right?"
Li Sibai nodded hurriedly, he promised but couldn't do it, he was already very embarrassed.
The other party is so magnanimous, he has no intention of blaming, and he has relaxed the conditions, and if he doesn't agree, he can't say it.
