Rescue system: run away from the host, calm down

Chapter 42
"me"

Cheng Xiaoxiao supported his forehead, her father's forehead was sweating, it seemed that he was not suitable for such an occasion, and he was speechless for a long time.

Facing so many clan elders, her uncle didn't dare to interrupt, her seniority overwhelmed her, and Uncle Cheng Beiniu stood in the corner silently.

What's the matter with these three people, it's not three joint trials, as for it?

Seeing that Cheng Yong couldn't explain why, everyone questioned more and felt cheated.

Uncle Qi tapped the ground with his crutches, and said unkindly: "The third child is right. We can't listen to wind and rain. After all, it didn't come from Master Ming. Let me ask you, how old is Master Jingyuan, and how old is he? Why haven't I heard his name before?"

Cheng Yong was dumbfounded when he heard it. The daughter's confession did not mention the age of Master Jingyuan. If he said it, the clan elders would not believe it. how to explain?

At this time someone said, "Second Cheng, why didn't you answer? Or are you lying?"

Cheng Yong didn't dare to hide it, and said embarrassingly: "No, Master Jingyuan. It's about two decades old."

Then he quickly explained: "Although Master Jingyuan is not very old, he has obtained the true biography of Master Ming and healed Xiao Xiao. The younger generation has seen everything with their own eyes, so I dare not hide anything."

The man had a bad tone just now, and said contemptuously: "Cut, two years, you have been cheated. What is it? You are a child, and your hair has not even grown. You are still a master...?"

"Besides, Master Liao Ming was not there, maybe Xiao Er was really deceived." Uncle Qi said bluntly, he felt that the possibility was very high.

Seeing that Cheng Yong was overwhelmed, the village head stood up and explained:
"Clan elders, although the matter is a little absurd, but Master Jingyuan is in the land of Buddhism, and he is a disciple of Master Liaoming, so it is absolutely impossible for him to make such a joke."

In his opinion, things are probably true, and he continued: "We have no evidence to prove that it is false, so it may be the truth. Everyone knows that Cheng Yong is an honest man, and it is impossible to deceive everyone with such a big thing." .”

Seeing the village chief's opinion, someone from the patriarch's faction immediately jumped out to refute, "That may also be bluffing and deception. Do you have evidence to prove that our village will be hit by a disaster in the near future?"

"That is, everyone has lived here for decades, and nothing has happened. Don't listen to the nonsense of people outside and just believe it."

"Yes, yes"

Everyone whispered to each other again, and voices of opposition and doubt continued to reach Cheng Xiaoxiao's ears.

Cheng Xiaoxiao thought that everyone would believe it soon. She mainly came to see how everyone made a preventive plan. There are many people and strength, and if there is anything she overlooked, she didn't expect this group of stubborn old people to be so difficult to deal with.

Suddenly I wanted to laugh, my life was gone, and I was still thinking about it.

Unhappy is very unhappy, if Cheng Xiaoxiao is unhappy, he has to hate others.
No longer silent, strode forward, bowed and saluted the clan elders, they are all elders of the original owner, basic respect is still required.

Respectfully said: "All clan elders and elders, can you listen to Xiao Xiao?"

For a while, the lobby was partially quiet.

There were also some people who taunted in a low voice, "When the elders are talking, how can the younger generation interrupt, they don't know what to do."

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't care about gossiping people, and didn't wait for anyone to answer her, and said to himself: "The elders have discussed for a long time, have you missed the point?"

The third uncle took a puff of the cigarette, shook the cigarette stick, and said with great interest: "Oh! Let me tell you, Miss Xiao, what is the point?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao was not polite, "Of course it is fate! There are more than 200 lives in our village. If a disaster strikes, how many people will be left in our village? In everyone's discussion, it is all about property gains and losses, and fault responsibilities." Scanned no one present.

Seeing that everyone is inexplicably uncomfortable.

Then he continued: "Have you never thought about human life? Regardless of the truth of the matter, there is no evidence to prove anything. This is a big gamble. If you win the bet, the lives of the family will be safe and you can continue to live. If you lose the bet, the most you will lose is some property. And kung fu, everyone can earn back in the future, but if..."

After a pause, he looked at the patriarch, who felt inexplicably guilty.

"If you don't gamble, then half of your life may be lost, so it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. If you want to survive, you can make arrangements in advance. If you feel that your life is big, you can pretend it's nothing. It's that simple."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, Cheng Xiaoxiao's words woke up many people like a slap in the face.

They never thought of losing their lives before.

Who dares to bet his life!

Who doesn't care about life!

Seeing that everyone has come to their senses, Cheng Xiaoxiao thinks that the old antiques can still be rescued.

So, he solemnly said: "The elders here are basically four generations under the same roof. Don't you think about your sons, grandchildren, and little grandchildren? You lost your life, at least you lived a long time, and your life is about to be complete But do you dare to gamble with the lives of the juniors? Their lives have just begun, and there are infinite possibilities, do you really have the heart?"

Looking at the guilty people present, he turned around and pointed to the ancestral house where the rankings were placed in the innermost place, "In front of the ancestors of the Cheng family, do you dare?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao's words hit the hearts of the elders of all ethnic groups, and their expressions changed one after another, yes!They have lived enough, but what about the younger generation?They can't afford this bet, and they can't ruin the children's lives and future.

Whose children are not pampered, whose children are not lively, active, cute and smart, if they lose their lives because of their disbelief and selfish decisions, it is frightening to think about it, and they will not be ashamed to see their ancestors when they die.

The patriarch is very old-fashioned, and what Cheng Xiaoxiao said made it seem like it was true. This eloquent girl and liar has nothing good to say.

Clearing his throat, he said loudly: "Everyone be quiet, Xiao girl is just guessing, the truth is not so bad, everyone, don't scare yourself, even if the flood floods, at most it will drown the dealer, how can it be so serious."

Fuck you old stubborn, every time you sing against my sister.

If it weren't for seeing so many innocent villagers, my sister wouldn't serve anyone, and she would forcefully quibble when she said everything, and wouldn't come out to babble a few words, it would be uncomfortable, really!

Foolishness!

ignorance!

The third uncle knocked on the table with his old tobacco pipe, and said, "What Xiao girl said is also reasonable. Let's bet big and not small. If we lose, we can't afford to pay. The grain that should be harvested can be harvested in advance, and the canal has also been dug. , Put all the items that can be picked up in a high place, so that you will be prepared.”

Uncle Six also nodded in agreement, "Even if it's all right, everyone won't lose much. We have done what we should do, so you can rest assured."

The village head said that he would listen to the elders of the two clans and make arrangements immediately.

Several other elders of the same generation as the patriarch also responded one after another, willing to cooperate with the work.

All of a sudden, the patriarch froze, and it was hard to refute the words of the elders of the clan. A few old guys of the same generation as him could still say a few words, but the third uncle and sixth uncle were his elders, so he had to give face.

Cheng Xiaoxiao smiled.
Unexpectedly, the third uncle and the sixth uncle are so powerful. In fact, Cheng Xiaoxiao should be called the third uncle in this generation. This is not too old.

It would be nice not to have to waste my time with her.

But she still has to remind, in case the news spreads and people get confused.
