There's something wrong with this guy

Chapter 5 The change of the wind over the cliff

It rained heavily that night and did not ease until the early morning.

Just in the middle of the night, the gate of the courtyard house was smashed, and the dog barked by the bed, and Xi Huanyan woke up immediately and opened the door with her bare feet.

"Master, master, open the door, there's something wrong with the master!"

Taking the time to spare, jogging and trotting, turning around to see Xi Huanyan, she shouted, "Go back to sleep, don't catch a cold, go back!"

The door opened and closed, and Xi Huanyan could only hear "fall off the cliff" and "find the villagers quickly".
Xi Huanyan understood something, but didn't understand anything. She sat on the threshold with the black dog and waited all night.

The second aunt brought her food and sighed with her arms around her.

In the next two days, she never saw her father and his apprentice, and her mother who went out that rainy night. On the fifth day, the men and women in the village came in with a coffin in their arms.

During the trip to Feng Guoya, they not only found the corpses of the missing, but also found the remains of Xi Canggu and his three disciples.

Xi Huanyan couldn't figure out how these two things got together, but as soon as he got home, he fell into a coma, and his second uncle Xi Cang said to her, "Your mother and us have been looking for five days at the bottom of the cliff. Sisu, be good, don't disturb her."

Xi Huanyan saw the sad expressions on their faces, and saw the stern face of the village chief, who was rarely seen on weekdays.

Brain dizzy.

The adults couldn't care about her, they were busy setting up the mourning hall, busy reporting mourning, busy killing chickens and sheep.

Xi Huanyan still sat on the threshold, fixedly looking at the coffin in the lobby.

"Huanyan, don't sit here, go back to the house."

The speaker is a sturdy young man, famous Xi Qiongdong, the grandson of the village chief, and an apprentice of Xi Canggu.

He was in a state of embarrassment, with mud on his short brown and trouser legs, and there was a bloodstain on his face that had been pulled by a branch.

Xi Huanyan didn't cause any trouble, and returned to the house with the black dog.

After another night in a coma, the sound of gongs and drums suddenly sounded, and the suona screamed shrilly, awakening her from the nightmare.

He took her to the lobby where the coffin was parked, and let her see Xi Canggu for the last time. He said it was the last time, but he did not let her get close to the coffin to take a closer look.

Master Yuan is not a god. He fell off the Qianren Cliff, how can he look good?

The face was pieced together stitch by stitch.

But why would it fall?
Isn't it great?

She didn't know what to do, but after seeing Gu Jianxia's red eyes, she followed her without a single step.

She felt unrealistic until it was buried.

On the night that Xi Canggu was buried, Xi Huanyan was called to the lobby, where she sat taking time to spend with the village chief, the clan elder, her second uncle, Xi Cangjin, and the only surviving apprentice, Xi Qiongdong.

Xijia Village shares the same surname, and the different branches of a tree are all relatives. The relationship between them is different. The patriarch is the village chief.

Taking care of his time, he did not enter the genealogy of Xijia Village, but Xi Huanyan did not enter the genealogy at the age, so he was often called the village chief rather than the patriarch.

"Everyone who should be here is here, so I'll just say it again." Xi Gaoshui sat on the top seat, his face sullen, his eyes turned round on Gu Jianxian's face, and then he was between Xi Huanyan and Xi Qiongdong again. I looked at it and knocked on the table twice—

"Combining with Qiongdong's description, it is roughly like this. At that time, the cedar pine tree that Canggu wanted to cut was growing on the cliff wall. He tied a rope and went down the cliff to cut the tree. When the disciples pulled the tree up, they suddenly heard Cang Gu's shout, and at the same time a black shadow jumped up the cliff, except for Qiongdong, who escaped, the other three disciples died."

"The rope found on Cang Gu's body has mucus that can't be washed away. We can't recognize this thing. On the contrary, it can definitely come from a strange demon, and he was killed by a strange demon who broke the rope and fell to his death. ."

Xi Gao Shui sighed and continued, "The Seven Schools were discovered on the southern slope of Fengguoya, which is the way up the mountain from the village, so it can be speculated that the strange demon ate the people on the cliff, came down the mountain, and touched the mountain. Get on them and eat a piece."

A clan elder named Xi Gaolan said with a stern face, "A strange demon appeared near the village and killed 11 people in a row. The situation is very urgent, but some things still need to be clarified."

She stopped here, and Xi Gaoshui opened his mouth and waved to Xi Qiongdong, "Dong'er, go get everyone some tea."

"Hey, good." Xi Qiongdong glanced at the teapot just brought on the table, and left with interest.

Putting him aside, Xi Gaoshui looked at Xi Gaolan, "He is my grandson after all, you can talk about it."

Others don't know why, quietly wait for them to clear their doubts.

Xi Gaolan said, "After the painful loss of Canggu, the Yuanshi in the village only has Aunt Ooyan and Patriarch Sushui. Aunt Ooyan is old and unable to move, and Patriarch Shui still has more energy left. , What is gratifying is that Qiongdong suffered from this change and felt the power of his soul, and there is another spiritual awakener in the village!"

Xi Cang looked excited, "Good things, good things!"

Taking time into consideration, he also told Shuidao at the banquet, "Hexi Village Chief."

Xi Gaoshui nodded with a smile and motioned for Xi Gaolan to continue.

"It's just the few of us here, so I'm just going to spread my words." Xi Gaolan stared straight at the juggernaut, "I swear to the sky to share the belief in benevolence, righteousness and courtesy. People’s hearts focus on unity, otherwise, how could it be passed down from generation to generation?”

"The source master has always been the core of the clan. Keeping a source master can keep the clan safe and peaceful for a hundred years. Therefore, according to the ancestor's rules, the Canggu family property should be inherited by Qiongdong. In the future, Qiongdong will support you when you grow old. You will be 13 years old in a year, when you enter the genealogy and get the characters, you will be included in the selection of the elders of the clan, and there will be offerings from the clan, so you can worry less."

What kind of calculus is this playing?

Taking care of his time and smirking, "The clan elder made a mistake, why did Qiongdong inherit Canggu's family?"

After Xi Cang was stunned, he thought about it and persuaded her, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, listen to the explanation from the clan elder first. In fact, my brother also received a lot of support from the clan."

"Your brother told me that as soon as you two lost your parents when you were young, the property of the house was allocated to the so-called great meritorious person by the clan, and then the family took turns to support you.

It was not until Cang Gu showed his power that he was taken over by Mrs. Ooyan and taught him the craftsmanship.

I have no problem with your practice of sticking to the strong for any benefit, but have you forgotten that I am a martial artist, and even if I cultivate martial arts alone, I can beat you, the patriarch.

Not to mention this, how much wealth do you think Canggu has? Except for this courtyard, didn't other property not be subsidized into the village earlier? "

Xi Gaoshui felt that he had been disgraced, but for the sake of his grandson's future, he still said in a good voice, "Only as a patriarch, in order to keep Qiongdong, the future master, he must put all good things in front of him. Yes, not only that, I will stumble him with blood relationship, and you, I also hope you can stumble him with teacher relationship.

It's true that you are a martial artist, but everyone knows that the source master who also practiced martial arts is the real potential future strongman. If he can stay in the village, it will be a guarantee for the more than 500 people in the village.As long as you are willing, the basic necessities of you and Huanyan will be covered by the clan. "

"You still want my martial arts?"
