Chapter 245: Shennong's Current Situation (2)
Bal said: "Not a saint. ”
Amida said, "But it's very similar to the Holy Maiden. Seeing Zhang Heng's puzzled face, he said in Imperial Chinese: "Young Master Zhang, this friend of yours was captured by the people of the Great Elder of the Clan, Sharpen. ”
Only then did Zhang Heng realize that the "Sha Proun" in their mouths was the Great Elder of the Shennong Clan, the status of the patriarch below one person and above ten thousand, and asked, "What does the noble Great Elder have to do with this girl? Why do you want to arrest her?"
Amita said: "When Gongzi Zhang asks here, I will tell Gongzi about the recent situation of the Shennong clan." The Imperial City, where we live, is just a fortress. The name of the Imperial City, Zhang Gongzi has heard of it, right?"
Zhang Heng nodded.
Amita continued: "The old patriarch of this clan, during the more than 40 years he has been in power, the people of the clan have lived a peaceful life, the wind and rain are smooth, and they are safe, but just three months ago, the old patriarch suddenly disappeared and has not shown up so far, this time, the entire Shennong clan is in chaos. Just a month ago, ten of the sixteen elders proposed that Grand Elder Sharpland take over as patriarch. ”
Zhang Heng said: "The patriarch is nowhere to be seen, the great elder takes over, and more than half of the elders agree, this is a logical thing." ”
Barr glared, slapped his thigh, and shouted, "Nonsense, what do you know, just talk nonsense!"
Amida persuaded: "Elder Barr, Gongzi Zhang doesn't know the inside story, don't be angry. He turned to Zhang Heng and sighed: "Although this Elder Sharplun is high and powerful, he is very insidious, when the old patriarch was in power, he had secretly entangled his henchmen many times and opposed the old patriarch, this time the old patriarch is missing, I'm afraid he can't get out of it, the whereabouts of the old patriarch are unknown, how can we make him the new patriarch?"
Zhang Heng said: "It's lying nonsense." ”
Amita said: "Don't blame the son. Of the sixteen elders, five of the other elders, except for him and the ten, did not agree to let him succeed him, including, of course, me and Elder Baal. The two sides said stiffly, and it escalated into a fight. ”
Zhang Hengxin said: "I think you couldn't beat Sharplun, so you were forced to move out of the Imperial City and come here." ”
Hearing Amita, he said: "This ice castle was originally the residence of Sharprun, and he was ordered by the old patriarch to guard the first point of the Shennong clan. He has occupied the Imperial City, and we have nowhere to go, so we have to come here. ”
Zhang Heng nodded, and said in his heart: "She hasn't gotten to the point yet." ”
Amita said: "In the ice castle, there are two-fifths of the Shennong people, and the strength cannot be underestimated, we originally planned to spend it with him, and then make plans after finding out the whereabouts of the old patriarch, but half a month ago, he suddenly sent a message to us, claiming that he had found the holy woman, and he would hold a holy ceremony to worship the heavens in a month, and he would succeed the patriarch." ”
Zhang Heng asked, "Does this Heavenly Sacrifice Sacred Book have anything to do with his succession as the patriarch?"
Amita said: "It has a lot to do with it. The sacred ceremony of worshipping the heavens is the most sacred and solemn festival of the clan, and the first thing that the patriarchs of the past generations did after taking over was to hold the sacred ceremony of worshipping the heavens with the holy woman. The Holy Maiden must be a virgin in her own clan and be born with an ice spirit physique. There have been several patriarchs who died suddenly, and when they found a candidate for the Ice Spirit Physique Woman to act as a saint and successfully hold a Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony, they stood out among many opponents and became the next patriarch. ”
Zhang Heng said: "It is extremely rare for a woman who is born with an ice spirit physique, since he has found it for Sharplon, I'm afraid he will get his wish." ”
Amita said: "Yes, but God does not bless the wicked, five days ago, our people found out that the Sharpland Sect was looking for someone outside, and it was the holy woman who escaped. The saint was lost, the sacred ceremony of worshipping the heavens could not be held, and his ambition to become the patriarch was of course frustrated. ”
Zhang Heng's heart moved, and he said, "Could it be that the holy woman looks similar to her friend?"
Ameta said: "Yes, we have seen, the holy woman who escaped has eight images with the friend of the child. Before Sharplun canonized her as a saintess, we had already confirmed her ice spirit physique, and if Childe's friend was impersonated as a saint by Sharpron, we would have to verify her identity, and it would be a loss to suspect the saint. ”
Baal let out a "hey" and said, "In this way, your friend was used by Sharpen to indirectly help Sharpen ascend to the position of patriarch. ”
Zhang Heng knew the ins and outs of this matter, thinking that Sharplun could lure the beasts to attack the city with a hundred miles of souls, so naturally he didn't take the tens of thousands of lives in the city to heart.
He also thought that the Earth Emperor City was on the Dragon Head Peak, and the bottom of the Dragon Head Peak was a lonely ice cave not far to the south, and since it was within the Sharpland sphere of influence, it was not easy to enter.
Amita said: "Gongzi Zhang, you want to save people from Sharplon, we have to expose Sharplun's plot to assassinate the patriarch, we are like-minded, if we join forces, we will be able to break the enemy and win, and I hope Gongzi will consider it seriously." ”
Zhang Heng was surprised and said: "Do you want to join forces with Xia?" hesitated in his heart: there are no master martial artists in the Shennong clan, and if he performs light skills by himself, he can sneak into the Silent Ice Cave without the knowledge of Sharplun's side, but where Sharplun hid Xueyin and what the situation in the Imperial City is, he doesn't know anything, but he has to worry.
At the moment, he said: "When I first came here, I don't know the grievances and wrongs of the Shennong clan, so it's not good to meddle rashly.
Amita smiled: "Childe wants to distinguish between right and wrong, it should be, how can we disagree?"
The three of them walked out of the secret room and came to the main hall, only to see that most of the guests had left, and Lu Xiaoyuan had also left. Amita said: "Gongzi Zhang, my Shennong clan has a strict rank, and if you and Lu Shaoxia want to live here, you must have an identity." So, how about you join the Eagles and count as Eagle Warriors?"
Zhang Heng nodded in agreement.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
Lu Xiaoyuan was drunk, and was helped out of the hall by two maids, and as soon as the night breeze blew, he sobered up a little and asked, "Where are we going?"
A maid smiled and said, "You can go wherever you say, and you can do whatever you want our sisters to do." "Amita specially sent a maid who was proficient in the Central Plains language to follow, so that the two sides could communicate easily. The two maids saw that Lu Xiaoyuan was uninhibited, different from the dignified and decent Zhang Hengda, so they were unrestrained in front of him.
Lu Xiaoyuan squinted at the other maid, looked at the maid who was talking for a while, and said, "Well, you look very similar, you are a pair of twin sisters, I don't know who is the elder sister and who is the younger sister?"
Another maid laughed, "You can guess." If you're wrong, our sisters will leave you here, turn around and leave. ”
