One or two branches of plum outside the bamboo

Chapter 338

When they returned to this courtyard, Yan Qingzhi and Su He were both calm, but it was as if Afu, who came back with something, felt like a world away.

She stood hesitantly in front of the courtyard gate, carefully looking at the place where she had lived for many years.

This place was prepared for the great elders of the ancient family. She and the great elders have lived here for nearly 30 years...

Yan Qingzhi couldn't understand her complicated emotions, but after standing for a few breaths, she walked into the yard with Afu.

Afu found a place to rest for them, and then brought food. Her attitude towards Yan Qingzhi was the same as before, but she left in a hurry without discussing it in detail.

Yan Qingzhi didn't stare at Afu to see what she was doing. She just waited for the people to leave, changed clothes in the room, ate something, and left a note for Yan Qingzhu in the space, and went to bed. fell asleep.

While she was sleeping with her clothes, Mei Heng was also taken to the yard in front of the village where foreigners were received, while the ballistas he brought and the Xuanwei on the ballistas retreated outside the village.

Those people set up camp directly outside the village, seemingly preparing to leave with Mei Heng and others.

Mei Heng arranged a total of [-] ballistas and [-] Xuanweis to come in. These people were all brave. After they set up camp, someone quickly started cooking with water and fire...

It's all an expression of habit.

These Xuanwei are powerful, and the ballista in the camp is even more terrifying. Ninety-nine percent of the people in Gujia Village have never heard of this thing, and the rest who have heard of it have never seen it.

If it were normal, a large group of villagers would have come to watch, but this time, too many people in Gujia Village died, many people were holding funerals, and many people were immersed in grief, but no one dared to come and provoke the sky. Mirror Division people.

There were only a few people arranged by the Gu family watching around the camp, and some of them also looked absent-minded.

Those puppets killed a lot of people when they entered the village, and they couldn't calm down without knowing the situation of their relatives.

In the village, Mei Heng was already exhausted, his health was not good, and he was able to sit until now, all relying on willpower.

Although he said all this was arranged by him, he should be a little excited when it was time to close the net, but in fact Mei Heng only felt tired.

He was helped to the bed by Mei Hansheng, and no matter how hard the bed was, he fell asleep with his head tilted there.

Xuanwei patrolling outside has already assigned their respective tasks, patrolling people patrolling, resting and resting, eating and eating...

The room was quiet, but there were four people standing or sitting on the beams or in the shadows in the room, plus Mei Hansheng who was sitting beside the bed, there were five people in total.

It can be said that even if there are mosquitoes in this room, they cannot escape the eyes of these people.

Mei Hansheng confirmed with a few people, yawned, and fell asleep there.

Whether it is Mei Heng or Yan Qingzhi, they are all outsiders, even if Mei Heng is the real behind the scenes.

He could sleep peacefully, but the rest of the Gu family hadn't dispersed.

The sunset in the evening passed through the mountain peaks, and a faint blush fell on the Gujia Village. The sunlight seemed to be a big net, engulfing the entire village.

Gu Jin's broken body fell coldly to the side, and everyone in the Gu family seemed to have experienced a catastrophe.

The old worshiper, who was surrounded by puppets and Tianjingsi ballista before, sat on the ground slumped.

It's not that he hasn't left, but he has come back from outside.

After Gu You and the others were led away by Yan Qingzhi and those Xuanwei, the people around the forbidden area had already searched the outside of the forbidden area.

He didn't need to go to the forbidden area to see it, because when he got home and led the horse, he had already seen the person he missed the most.

Although he was already prepared, his heart seemed to be gouged out when he looked at the mutilated corpse of the young man on the white cloth.

A mournful cry of sadness sounded in Gujia Village, and the tragedy did not stop there.

The old worshiper rushed into the room, rummaged through the boxes and found a box, and then rushed out of the yard regardless of the obstruction of the people around him.

He ran all the way to the ancestral temple, looked at Gu Jin, who was not dead yet, his eyes were red, and the blue veins on his head were bulging. Gu Jin's face...

Gu Jin screamed and crawled around, some people couldn't bear it, but looking at the clansmen who lost their relatives, they looked like crazy, but no one dared to stop.

Gu Shuang didn't speak, and she sat back to her previous position.

Gulin was still by her side.

Some clan elders and worshipers also walked to Gu Shuang's side, as if they wanted to ask something, but they were all pressed down by Gu Shuang's raising his hand.

After waiting for a while, Gu Jin was exhausted by the tossing, and when the corpse was about to be torn apart, a person walked in quickly and saluted the elders and worshipers in the courtyard before he said.

"Those people from the Tianjing Division, and the artillery have not left, they have set up camp outside the village!"

After hearing this, everyone's faces were not very good-looking, only Gu Shuang was very calm.

"Warn the clansmen not to provoke them, and if any of them find something we want, try to be satisfied."

The people from the Tianjing Division will leave here sooner or later. Their ancient family is not worthy of a fifth-rank official, but what exactly is Mei Heng's waste of so much effort, Gu Shuang has not fully understood, she can only tell the ancient family not to. Offend Mei Heng.

After the people left, Gu Shuang stood up and said loudly.

"Everyone!"

Her voice called back the attention of many people, and the yard gradually calmed down. Gu Shuang looked at the faces looking at her, and sighed leisurely.

"Everyone!"

"Today's incident has seriously damaged the vitality of the Gu family. Although Gu Jin and his accomplices have all been executed, it is still unknown how many people in the family have been with them!"

"The corpse sect hurt my Gu clan too much. We will not share the sky with them. We should investigate and deal with them one by one, and leave no one behind."

"It's just that this can't be done overnight. Now that there are internal and external troubles, and the ancient family is in chaos, we should unite as one and overcome difficulties together. It's just a pity that I am old and old, and I can't take the lead, whether it is mental or physical, and I voluntarily retire. The position of the clan elder, pass the position of the great elder to Gulin."

"Today, everyone and I are in this ancestral temple, so I just happened to tell my ancestors about this matter. After three days, everything is ready, and then the inheritance ceremony..."

After listening to her words, the courtyard was silent.

Gulin was not too excited either.

It is a sure thing for him to be the Great Elder. As early as the beginning of this year, Gu Shuang began to transfer the connections and powers in his hands to him. Even if there is no such thing as today, it will only be a year or two left!
What's more, it's a mess when you get started, and there's really nothing to be excited about.

Seeing everyone's expression like this, the worshiper who was sitting next to Gu Shuang could only sigh.

"Since that's the case, let's also elect the patriarch!"

Speaking of the patriarch, someone's gaze unconsciously glanced at Gu Jin's already cold corpse.

In addition to the Great Elder lineage, the rest of the Gu family are all in turn to be the patriarchs. Logically speaking, it should have been the turn of the ancient ban.

Just because of the corpse control sect, many people in the clan are suppressing his development, hoping that he can return to the right path.

But I don't want this person to go further and further crooked.

In the past, everyone only thought that the knife did not fall on themselves, and the reputation of the corpse sect was so bad.

But Mei Heng lifted the old bottom of the ancient ban, and what was revealed below was not only the evil of human nature, but also the cruelty of human nature.

After all, their Gu family has come this far, or because they don't treat people outside as human beings, they only think that only the people from the ancient family are the most important!
Speaking of the patriarch, the people who were silent before had a lot to say.

Hearing these people clamoring, Gu Shuang frowned and subconsciously wanted to stop drinking, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he remembered that he had just stepped down, and it would be bad to talk too much at this time.

She frowned and sat in the middle of the crowd, listening to the clamor of the crowd.

The sky gradually darkened, and the people of the Gu family kept copying until late at night, only to temporarily put the matter on hold because of the poor health of a group of old men and women.

Gu Shuang was supported and returned to his home, and Gulin followed her back. The two then had a secret conversation in the study for a long time. When Gulin left, his expression was not relaxed.

The burden on his shoulders is very heavy. Not only the Gu family's problems need to be dealt with, but also the relationship between the ancient family and the Tianjing Division, the relationship with the imperial court, the relationship with the remnants of the Corpse Control Sect... and so on.

It is not difficult to become a great elder, what is rare is how to be a great elder.

It was not quiet in Gujia Village that night, and many people were watching the spirits.

Because of the sudden appearance of so many people doing funerals, all the white cloth in the village was used up.

Some people died suddenly at a young age, and even their clothes and coffins were borrowed from other people's homes, and the sound of crying spread half the village.

For someone like Yan Qingzhi with good ears, she only felt that there were sobbing and sobbing all around her, and she couldn't sleep at all because of the noise.

When she woke up the next morning, Yan Qingzhi's eyes were blue.

She got up early in the morning and played with guns. When it was dawn, she had breakfast with Gu Shuang and others.

Because she didn't know if the relationship between Su He and Gu Shuang had eased, Yan Qingzhi only ate a third of her breakfast. If there was still something to eat in the space, she would almost starve to death.

But it was when she took things out that she discovered the abnormality of the space.

And in the box where she and Yan Qingzhu passed the news, there was also a lot of news that Yan Qingzhu left her.

The space between the two of them wasn't that big before, but after Yan Qingzhi touched the jade from Ming Lang yesterday, their space became even bigger.

The slap was not obvious, it was only one slap wide, but this slap represented many things.

Yan Qingzhi was exhausted yesterday and was in a trance, so she only focused on explaining Lang's affairs to Yan Qingzhu.

Yan Qingzhu doubts Ming Lang's identity.

In fact, it's quite reasonable. Ming Lang's strength is visible to the naked eye, and this kind of strength is not something that can be achieved the day after tomorrow.

Coincidentally, both Yan Qingzhi and Yan Qingzhu have similarities with him in talent.

They can't tell the connection between the two parties, but if it is from a talent point of view, it is very likely that Ming Lang has something to do with the two.

They may even be blood relatives!
But if you just say this, it doesn't seem to make sense.

The eight generations of their ancestors are clearly visible, and the only thing that has disappeared is the grandmother's family, but they searched through their memories and couldn't find anything unusual about the original grandmother's family.

In addition, it is Yuhuan.

Yan Qingzhi talked about the clear space, and also asked Yan Qingzhu if it would be clear that he also passed through.

It's just that Yan Qingzhu doesn't quite agree with this.

Although Ming Lang is mysterious, he does not have the temperament of a traveler. Judging from his performance, he still prefers to be an ordinary person who has lived in Da Zhao since he was a child.

The two are transmigrators who actually have the most say.

Some habits cannot be changed. They have been here for more than five years, but their casualness is still different from those who have lived here since childhood.

Even someone like Jun Tongyue who has lived with them for a long time has not been able to learn their habits.

It can be seen how difficult it is to change a person's behavior.

Under this circumstance, the possibility of Ming Lang being able to completely turn himself into an ancient person is not high.

So at the end of the day, there should be other secrets in Ming Lang, but the two of them don't know it.

Yan Qingzhi was scratching her head, she really wanted to find Ming Lang and ask about the situation, but thinking of the relationship between Ming Lang and Mei Heng, she was a little hesitant.

What if this person is a troll! ?

Why do you trust each other.

Yan Qingzhu is not as entangled as she is. He is so tired every day that he really doesn't dare to use any abilities. The world has opened up in front of them. What he needs now is not to find the truth, but to make himself as strong as possible.

Yan Qingzhi hid in the room for a while, and someone from Gujia Village told her to go out.

Although it seems that funerals are being held everywhere in the village, in fact, there are still many lucky people, and nothing happened at home.

Some of them were in the same vein as Gu Shuang, and Gu Shuang found a safe person to entertain Yan Qingzhi.

As for Su He, he was very familiar with the Gu family, so he didn't need anyone to entertain him at all.

Yan Qingzhi originally had many thoughts, but after being surrounded by a group of fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls, those thoughts could only be put on hold temporarily.

Most of the little girls here are simple, but to a certain extent they are very precocious.

If it wasn't for the delicious food they brought out, Yan Qingzhi might have stayed away from them earlier!
Even though Gu Shuang was the Great Elder, it was impossible for girls in this village to be like boys.

As Yan Qingzhi, she would feel that she did not lose anything to others, and she would definitely do everything she could to strive for the same treatment and status as the strongest in the village.

But these girls don't have those thoughts. They simply feel that they should wander around their pottery yard.

So much so that when communicating with Yan Qingzhi, they often carry this kind of value, and they are very persistent in wanting to instill in Yan Qingzhi...
