Chapter 1248: Entanglement
The village of the White Mist Clan.
Before he was completely dismissed, the patriarch of the Baizhiwu Clan felt that there was no guarantee that anything would happen until the end. Who knows if he can make a comeback?
As long as his son brings back the good news, can he still keep his position as the patriarch? As long as he hands this gold coin into the hands of the elders, is he afraid that the elders won't let go? That's something worth a lot of cattle and sheep. Even if the elders don't want to let go, it doesn't matter. If my family carries this gold coin, are they afraid of losing their property? Why does he have to be in front of the patriarch? Do they still think that he really just inherited his father's legacy and wants to work hard for the village of Bai Zhiwu tribe, just like his father? Shit, he's not that great. If he hadn't seen all the compliments and filial piety from those guys in the clan to his family when he was a child, would he be willing to be the leader of the clan?
He is extremely busy no matter what, and it is strange that he is willing to waste this time on the clan, not just to get some private property into his pocket! Of course, he cannot deny that sometimes, the rights of the clan leader still make him a little satisfied, but this is only if the clan members are willing to listen to his arrangements.
The leader of the Baizhiwu Clan is well aware that many people in the clan are dissatisfied with him as the leader, saying that he is incompetent and unsuitable to be the leader of the clan, and that he has not made any contributions to their Baizhiwu Clan in so many years. , so no one is willing to listen to him. Regarding this point, the patriarch of the Baizhiwu tribe is actually very disdainful. No matter how dissatisfied he is, as long as the elders do not explicitly say that they will not let him become the tribe leader, what can other tribesmen do?
So, this time, as long as his son obeys the arrangement, finds those outsiders, and exchanges the gold coins for them, then he believes that the elders will definitely not ask him to be the leader of the clan again. That's the kind of thing.
The patriarch of the Baizhiwu Clan was thinking silently in his heart, with a smile on his lips, not knowing what was going on. The family had been waiting for a long time, and finally heard the news from their daughter-in-law, saying that a figure had appeared near the entrance of the village, and it was probably his son who had returned.
So, the patriarch became energetic, and immediately stood up and trotted away When I arrived at the entrance of the village, I looked at my daughter-in-law, who was also a little excited, and felt eager anticipation in my heart. His son should have returned in exchange for gold coins
As to why the patriarch is not worried about the return of other members of the Bai Zhiwu tribe, he has already made arrangements. Many tribesmen were called back at first, and then they were driven directly back to Baiwu at the entrance of the village to continue their training. However, he told his son that when he met his tribe, he asked them all to go to Baiwu directly. Let’s take a look at the situation in the orchard of the Mist Clan, and say that there seems to be people from the Black Mist Clan in the orchard. Feel free to let everyone know.
This will prevent other members of the Bai Zhiwu clan from encountering his own son, and then some unexpected situations will occur. Therefore, the patriarch of the Baizhiwu Clan firmly believes that all the clan members who went to Baiwuli to practice should be in the fruit forest at this moment, and the only ones who can come back are their own sons
As expected, a few minutes later, The patriarch of the Baizhiwu Clan saw his son stepping into the entrance of the village.
The patriarch's eyes lit up instantly, and he was about to call his son home to talk in detail. Suddenly he saw three more people flashing behind him, so he was stunned for a second, and then asked: " Son, what are you doing?"
"Patriarch, they are outsiders and came back with me." The patriarch's son looked at his father with some excitement and said, and then quickly hinted to him. Go home together. He had brought these outsiders to their village as agreed, so the next step was for them to give them gold coins. This can't be done in the light, so we can only go to their house to solve it privately
"Daughter-in-law, let's go home!" Seeing that his father was in a daze again, the patriarch's son had no choice but to turn his attention to his own. My wife, I said something to her. If my family members don't move, how can I get the clansmen around me to get out of the way? Now is not the time to let the clan members watch! !
The patriarch's son was very anxious, fearing that his wife would also be a troublemaker. Fortunately, his wife was more excited. After hearing his words, she immediately looked away from the outsiders, then she picked up the tribesmen around her and said loudly: "Fellow tribesmen, give way. Come on, my man wants to take the outsider home to freshen up first. Come on, come on. Dad, dad, you are still stunned. What? Your son is back." We have to go home and take a look at the gold coin worth a lot of cattle and sheep.
The patriarch was yelled by his wife, and then he came back to his senses, and then his eyes widened. He turned his eyes towards his son and asked: "You bastard, why did you bring all the outsiders back?" The patriarch was very angry! Didn’t they all tell him to come back quickly after changing the gold coins? What's going on with bringing outsiders back?
"Dad, let's go back and talk!" The patriarch's son quickly winked and said to the patriarch.
Hearing this, the patriarch glanced at the tribesmen who were looking at their father and son in confusion, then he closed his lips and nodded quickly before turning around and preparing to go back. Yes, this is not the time to talk about this. You have to get the gold coins in your hands first, otherwise things will be in trouble when the elders get the news later.
The clan leader and his family were eager to go home. In the eyes of other members of the Bai Zhiwu clan, they naturally felt that something was wrong. However, it was difficult for everyone to ask, so they had to focus on them. On the body, watching them step out of the crowd and prepare to go home.
However, the patriarch's family had just walked a few steps when suddenly a tribesman let out a sigh, and then shouted loudly: "Master patriarch, that's not right, your son has come back with outsiders! That means that... , these outsiders have all passed your son's test, then they will. They should be sent to the elders. When the patriarch is ready, you will send them away from our White Mist area? Why are you taking them home?"
The White Mist Clan? When the clan leader heard this, his back suddenly stiffened, and the expression on his face was already distorted.
Don’t these people know how to talk less? He is the leader of the clan, what's wrong with bringing someone home? While thinking this, the patriarch gave his son a fierce look. Look, this was the first thing he worried about when he saw him bringing outsiders!
According to the rules of their Baizhiwu tribe, if outsiders pass the test and come to their village, they must take them to the elders and wait, and then they can pack their things and go. Firstly, it is to remove the disguise of the tribesmen who are still in disguise, and secondly, it is to chat with these outsiders to learn about the news about the outside world, and then send them away from here
So, follow the previous situation He said that if he wanted to bring outsiders to his home, no one had stipulated that it was not allowed, but no one said that it was okay! If there were no other tribesmen here to watch, no one would say anything even if he brought these three outsiders home; however, if he knew that he should take all these people home at this moment, If you take it to the elders but don’t take it with you, wouldn’t that make people suspicious?
However, if this takes them to the elder, has his son already obtained the gold coin? Have you already made an agreement with these outsiders not to reveal anything to the elders? He was worried about these two things
The patriarch's son obviously thought of this, so he looked at his father with unmistakable eyes.
Then the patriarch knew that his son might not have handled the matter well, and there must have been some problems. If he did not bring these outsiders home to give them instructions, he would go back to the elders. If he let it slip, then the gold coins would not be regarded as donated by him for the position of clan leader, but directly obtained by the clan.
Thinking of this, the leader of the White Mist Tribe immediately gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand to wipe the thin trace of sweat that had appeared on his forehead, and then turned around and looked at the tribesman who just spoke, his eyes fierce. He said: "What do you mean by this? Do you think that I will not be the leader of the clan for long, so the pretense of respect in the past is no longer needed? Ah, there are so many co-authors On the surface, you seem to respect me as the patriarch, but that’s not what you think in your heart, is it? My son brought three outsiders and passed the test. I, the patriarch, can’t let my son go home and change his body. Are your clothes going to the elders anymore? Are we, the White Mist Clan, no longer something that I, the clan leader, can control? Or, have you become our White Mist Clan? Are you the patriarch? That’s why you’re gesticulating here?”
“No, no, patriarch, you don’t think it’s possible for you to talk nonsense!” The clan leader was slapped with a big label. He quickly shook his head and waved his hands in denial: "I definitely didn't mean that! Mr. Patriarch, I just... I just..." He just told the truth! Isn’t that what you’ve done before? Is it wrong to tell the truth?
The tribesmen nearby looked at the tribesman who spoke with sympathy and did not dare to ask for help.
No matter how unpopular the patriarch is, he is right about one thing. The official elder order has not been issued yet. The clan leader is the clan leader and will not be replaced. Contradicting the clan leader or being disrespectful to the clan leader is a serious crime! If this is investigated, the whole family may be implicated and punished.
The patriarch looked at the sympathetic and fearful eyes of the clan members around him, and then sneered twice in his heart, and then secretly He breathed a sigh of relief, looked at his son, and then raised his feet again to walk home.
However, before these steps touched the ground, a crisp female voice came into their ears again: "Ah, why is this ice wall gone?" PS: Thanks for "quietly entering the village to shoot. No." sachet! Thanks to "Dumpling Fish" for the peace charm! Thanks to "laughing little Amiao" for the peace charm!
