Chapter 408

Seeing his nephew at this time, He Lankang suddenly had an idea and pushed him in front of everyone: "This time the eldest brother has an accident, and Ming'er is the one who works the hardest. Although he is a concubine, he is good-natured and aggressive. I think it is most suitable for him to be the acting head of the family!"

"Second Uncle, what did you say?" He Lanming saw that everyone was looking at him, with a puzzled expression on his face, as if he didn't really listen to what he just said.

"Ming'er, you're here just in time!" He Lanyi's eyes were filled with joy, the problem that was bothering them had been solved the moment He Lanming appeared.He walked up to He Lanming and said to him solemnly, "Second Brother and I have decided to select you as the acting Patriarch before the Patriarch returns. What do you think?"

"Third Uncle, this...doesn't seem appropriate?" He Lanming suddenly widened his handsome eyes with an expression of disbelief, and then he shook his head and resolutely refused, "My status is low, and I am not suitable to be the acting head of the family." , and my qualifications and experience are too shallow, I'm afraid I can take on this great task."

"Where is it inappropriate?" He Lankang saw that he was evasive, and said aloud, "Ming'er, all of us have noticed what you have done for the Helan family these days, don't be humble, I don't think so. Who is more qualified for this position than you."

"But, my identity is also..." He Lanming was about to continue, but at this moment, He Lanyi raised his hand and pressed on his shoulder, interrupting what he was going to say next.

"Ming'er, you are the son of my eldest brother. In terms of status, no one is more qualified to be the acting head of the family. We know that you have the ability to manage the Helan family well, not to mention that you are only replacing the head of the family before he returns. Take care of the affairs of the Helan family for the time being, so don't refuse any more."

He Lan Mingjun showed a troubled expression on his face: "This..."

"Since the two brothers value you so much, you should take on this burden." The elder also slowly opened his mouth. Ever since He Lanming came in, he has been silently observing the child, humble and down-to-earth. Impetuousness is indeed the best candidate to act as the head of the family.

Several other elders also echoed: "Since everyone has chosen you, they believe that you have this ability, so don't refuse any more. As a descendant of the Helan family, you should also shoulder this responsibility."

He Lanming raised his head to meet the expecting gazes that were cast towards him. He was silent for a while, and finally nodded in response: "Since the elders value me so much, I won't refuse any more. Before my father comes back, I will definitely I will do well what I should do as the acting head of the family, and I will never let you down, nor will I let my father down."

"With your words, we are relieved." Several elders looked at him with admiration, thinking that it is really cruel for such a child to be neglected by He Lanjing all these years, and to be left to fend for himself in the backyard. thing.

But thankfully, the kid has grown up.

"Thank you elders for your trust in Ming'er. From now on, I will definitely make the Helan family's reputation even louder in the hunter world!" A smug smile flashed across his eyes.

Although it is now verbally said that he is acting as the head of the family, as long as He Lanjing cannot be found for a day, he will be confirmed as the head of the family sooner or later.

Moreover, only he knew best in his heart that after He Lanjing disappeared, he would never come back.

At the same time, in the woods halfway up the mountain.

On the mountain road paved with dead branches and fallen leaves, a middle-aged man in ragged clothes was lying on his back.The clothes on his body were cut in several places by the branches, and there were mottled bloodstains in front of him, which looked shocking.

And the most shocking thing was his face, with more than a dozen wounds criss-crossing across his face, and several deep cuts turned out the skin and flesh, which looked terrifying and frightening.

His eyes were closed tightly, his lips were chapped, and it was obvious that he had experienced something inhuman.

This comatose middle-aged man is exactly the head of the He Lan family, He Lanjing, whom everyone in the He Lan family is trying to find.

He knew that if he resigned to his fate and stayed in the woodshed, sooner or later Yan Ruhua would torture him to death.Therefore, he endured the severe pain on his face last night, and took the huge risk of almost breaking his two arms, and rescued himself from the chains.

After Yan Ruhua fell asleep, he quietly opened the door of the courtyard and escaped.Originally, he wanted to go to the two younger brothers and explain to them what happened to him and He Lanming's mother and son's heinous crimes.

However, when he discovered that there were two strange guards at the gate of the courtyard where He Lankang and He Lanyi lived, his heart suddenly became vigilant.

He Lanjing knew very well that He Lanming was a very vigilant person.It is very possible that these two people were sent by him. Maybe they said it was to protect the safety of the yard, but they were actually monitoring He Lankang and He Lanyi's every move.

He Lanjing was afraid that after revealing his identity, not only would he not be able to see his two younger brothers, but he might also be silently silenced.

So to be on the safe side, he bypassed the night guards of Helan's house, dragged his injured body and escaped from Helan's house without a sound.

Almost all of his martial arts skills have been sucked away by He Lanming now, and he has become half a useless person. In addition, his face has also been destroyed. If he doesn't want to find a perfect solution, He Lanming will inevitably bite him back.

After escaping from Helan's house, he chose a remote path to leave here to find Yan Xiaoxiao.

Now, I am afraid that only by stimulating the potential ability in her body can she be able to compete with He Lanming.

However, He Lanjing's body was injured, and since He Lanming was imprisoned in the firewood room, he hadn't run out of water, and before he had walked far, he passed out due to exhaustion.

Fortunately, this road is very rough, few people can walk, so he was not found.

The mountain wind blows and blows off the half-yellow leaves.The leaves spun in mid-air with the mountain wind, and slowly fell on He Lanjing's body.

The sunlight is just right, falling through the gaps between the branches and leaves.He Lanjing's body temperature gradually warmed up under the sunshine, and the fingers on his side unconsciously moved twice.

Not long after, He Lanjing's eyelashes trembled, and those eyes opened little by little.When the glaring sunlight shone directly into his eyes, He Lanjing frowned slightly and wanted to raise his hand to block the light.

However, this simple facial expression involved the wound on his face, so painful that he almost didn't cry out.

He Lanjing panted heavily, and it took him a while to get used to the pain on his face from time to time.

At this moment, he can hardly use any strength in his body, but he knows that he can't die here so vaguely.

He must live to see his daughter, must come back alive to meet the members of the Helan family, and he must expose his true face in front of Helan Ming.
