Chapter 186: Fire

On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, eight o'clock in the evening.

There was no moon in the night, and snowflakes mixed with the north wind whistled by.

People say that Ruixue is a good year. But for the poor people, such a heavy snowstorm may be the reason why they did not last until the harvest year came.

Because the heavy snow may collapse their already dilapidated houses, consume the already small amount of firewood, and make the already crystal clear porridge water one less handful of buds.

Of course, the villagers of Changbai Village will certainly not reach this point, but it is not much better.

In the past, even the poorest people in Changbai Village, even if they sold their property, they could buy dry goods in the black market every day;

Moreover, the mountain guards have guarded this mountain forest for generations, guarding it for a full three hundred years, even if there are clan rules, "only take what you need", it is enough for everyone to survive.

But now, because of the "low-key behavior" that Alin Zu'er carried out a long time ago, and because of the absence of the Great Shaman, the territory of the former circle is getting smaller and smaller, and it is becoming more and more difficult to obtain food as he advances.

In the past, the people of Changbai Village, who had enough to eat enough delicacies from the mountains and seas, could only live on a few acres of land, and like ordinary farmers, they could only have the most basic ticket rations

Therefore, in the entire Changbai Village, except for a few people who are bold and use the connections they have expanded over the past three hundred years to seek supreme enjoyment for themselves, other families, including some patriarchs, are actually not very wealthy in terms of material reserves.

Especially after the succession of the new shaman, the clansmen spontaneously celebrated and put on a feast, although they were really happy, but it also made the situation that was not rich a little worse.

In the past, when encountering such a situation, the high-level officials of the Eight Ministries would use their connections and channels to carefully mobilize a batch of food to ensure that the clansmen would not starve to death.

But this year, until the twenty-ninth of the lunar month, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the tribe has not yet distributed grain, which has brought the people's dissatisfaction with the top to a peak.

Tong family.

The Tong family is a three-entry house, which can be said to be the largest house in the entire village, except for the ancestral house of the Jin family.

Of course, this situation is not because Tong Rui is the patriarch of the generation, but the position of the patriarch of the Tong Jia tribe, since he followed the first generation of the Jin family's ancestor Dekezik to settle in Changbai Mountain, he has never fallen into the hands of the branch, and has always been in the hands of the lineage, and the natural ancestral house has not changed.

After Tong Rui became the acting lord, the Tong family was transformed into another meeting hall.

After dinner, the eight high-level officials all came to Tong's house, hoping that Tong Rui would quickly come up with an idea.

The head of the Fucha tribe, Abu Kai Maolin, held the tea bowl in his hand, and only after smelling it, he quietly put it down, this tea is not lined with today's tea set.

Of the eight tribal chiefs and their spouses present here, he is the only one.

It was Tong Rui who planned and forced Ni Chuhe to resign from his post as a civil servant, and even forced the couple to personally punish their sons, send their daughter-in-law to the whole clan, and be scolded by the clansmen.

Of course, if it were just spitting, but what awaited Songkri was death.

Songkri and the other people who had been convicted of treason by their tribe were still locked up in the dungeon under the ancestral hall, waiting for the sacrifice to be followed by Sa'i Sa'ilha himself to exile them to the mountains and forests, and let the mountain god decide.

Although he had to be mentally prepared, looking at his decadent son, and his grandson, who was previously sensible and well-behaved, was now full of resentment, how could Abu Kaimaolin feel comfortable.

And what Songkri did, as a patriarch, how could he really not know.

Not only did he know, but he even hid it for his daughter-in-law after knowing that Ni Chuhe actually had the idea of keeping the Jin family's life.

He always thought that this was because Nichuhe's heart was too soft, and those who achieved great things were not informal.

But he definitely didn't expect that Nichuhe had made a deal with Lord Alin.

He always thought that the reason why their clan held Sancheng of the connections in Changbai Village was because Jin Alin thought that Nichuhe was "a goddess of prosperity".

Unexpectedly, this was compensation because Ni Chuhe took the initiative to act as a shield for Jin Shunxin and Yun Shu.

Now that he knows, it's too late, and he can remain silent when he thinks that Nichuhe handed over his rights after his son and daughter-in-law were stupid in public.

But after learning that Songkri had actually participated in the "gold extermination operation" and was still the main personnel, Abu Kaimori was weak and sad.

The weakness of the heart was naturally due to the fact that without his acquiescence, Nichuhe would not have been able to perceive what Songkri was doing;

The sad reason is that they have been married for more than 30 years, and he has always thought that he and Nichuhe are not only lovers and family members, but also partners.

But Nichuhe has been hiding such a big thing from him.

At this time, Abu Kai Maolin would never have imagined that Nichuhe would hide this from him.

He didn't even know that there was no need for Ni Chuhe to make a move against the Jin family's bloodline, and their move was the real addition to the snake.

Abu Kai Maolin had a grudge in his heart, and naturally he brought out a bit of anger in his actions.

The sweet white porcelain tea bowl collides with the iron wood coffee table, making a crisp sound.

Clan Elder Saikan squinted at him, then turned his head and said to Tong Rui: "Brother Sule, it seems that your tea is not good, look at it, Patriarch Fucha has been beaten here." ”

Although Abu Kai Maolin resented Tong Rui in his heart, resented the "culprit" Sayi Sayirha, and resented everyone on her side, but as Nichuhe said, now the situation is stronger than people, and Sayi Saielha has mastered shamanic witchcraft so quickly, they can only bow their heads first.

As the saying goes, those who achieve great things are not informal, and the big husband can bend and stretch.

And although Sayi Sayil Ha succeeded as a shaman, it is unknown whether he can grow up, whether he can provoke the girder of Changbai Village, and even whether he can be recognized by the mountain gods.

They can bow their heads, but they can't lose their backbone and let the clansmen look down on them.

Anyway, everyone also knows that Sayi Sayir Ha inexplicably does not want to see Nichuhe, as Nichuhe's husband and elder, Abu Kai Maolin does not think that he should be too polite to her.

This is in line with his personality.

Abu Kai Maolin got up and said expressionlessly, "Please forgive the two elders, everyone knows that it is unfortunate in the next family, and the family is worth an eventful time, the big and the small are sick, and now the old and young in the clan are waiting for the rice to go to the pot, and I have been a little angry recently."

Elder Souler, I just wanted to ask, when will the food promised by the shaman arrive?

Everyone in the clan knew about this, and everyone was full of joy and waited, although since Lord Shaman agreed, he would definitely not break his promise, but tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, it really can't work, so let's use the grain in the clan to send it down first. ”

Tong Rui looked at Abu Kai Maolin, who was quite a bit broken, and only felt in his heart that maybe Sun Tzu was right, the eight mountain guards had long forgotten their hearts and their identities, including him.

He looked at the dim candlelight and glanced at the others, "What do you mean?"

Everyone present was actually stunned by the plot reversal a few days ago.

Naturally, some of them want to save face in Sayi-Sayil-kha.

But now they are not sure if Abu Kaimorim is also like Nichuhe, in fact, a pig teammate in the wolf pack, and now he is "fishing for law enforcement"!

So for a while, I didn't even dare to speak.

The meeting hall, which was no different from the Jin family's ancestral house, was silent at this time.

At that moment, a white figure pushed the door open.
