The heavy rain poured down that night and did not ease until the early morning.

It happened to be midnight, the gate of the Siheyuan was smashed and clanged. When the dog barked by the bed, Xi Huanyan woke up immediately and opened the door barefoot. She was just seeing her mother coming out of the north house with an oil-paper umbrella and walking towards the door quickly.

"Master's wife, Master's wife, open the door quickly, something happened to the master!"

Gu Jianxia quickly turned into a trot, turned around and saw Xi Huanyan, shouting, "Go back to sleep quickly, don't catch a cold, go back!"

The door opened and closed, and Xi Huanyan vaguely heard "falling off the cliff" and "Look for the villagers to look for it"...

Xi Huanyan understood something, but she didn't understand anything, and sat on the threshold with a black dog for a night.

Second aunt brought the food over and hugged her and sighed.

Two days later, she never saw her father and his apprentice, and her mother who went out on the rainy night. Until the fifth day, the men and women in the village came in with Gu Jianxia and a coffin.

During the journey through the cliff, they not only found the corpses of the missing, but also the remains of Xi Canggu and his three disciples.

Xi Huanyan couldn't figure out how these two things got together, but Gu Jianxia fell into a coma as soon as he got home. His second uncle Xi Cangjin said to her, "Your mother and we have been looking for four nights and four nights at the bottom of the cliff. Be good, don't bother her."

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

My brain is dizzy.

The adults couldn't control her. They were busy setting up mourning halls, busy reporting the funeral, and busy killing chickens and sheep.

Xi Huanyan was still sitting on the threshold, looking at the coffin in the lobby.

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

The speaker is a strong young man, Xi Qiongdong, the grandson of the village chief, and Xi Canggu's apprentice.

He was in a mess, with mud on his short brown legs, and a blood mark on his face that was scratched by a branch.

Xi Huanyan did not cause any trouble and brought the black dog back to the house.

After another night of confusion, the sound of gongs and drums suddenly rang out, and the suona screamed so hard that it woke her up from the nightmare.

Gu Jianxia took her to the lobby where the coffin was parked and asked her to meet Xi Canggu for the last time, saying that it was the last time, but she did not let her get close to the coffin and look carefully.

Master Yuan is not a god. How can he look good when he falls down from Qianren Cliff?

The face was pieced together one by one.

...But why did you fall down?

Not very awesome?

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

Until someone was buried, she felt it was unrealistic.

On the night when Xi Canggu was buried, Xi Huanyan was called to the lobby, where Gu Jianxia, ​​the village chief, the clan elder, and her second uncle Xi Cangjin and the only surviving apprentice Xi Qiongdong.

Xijia Village has the same surname. Different branches on a tree are all relatives and have different relationships. The clan leader is the village chief, named Xi Gaoshui, and is also one of the three source masters in the village.

Gu the genealogy of Jianxia who was not in Xijia Village, Xi Huanyan was not in the age of entering the genealogy, so she often called her village chief, not the clan leader.

"Everyone who should be here is here, I'll tell you the matter again." Xi Gaoshui sat on the chair with a calm face, her eyes turned around Gu Jianxia's face, then looked between Xi Huanyan and Xi Qiongdong, knocking on the table twice-

"In conjunction with Qiongdong's story, it's roughly like this. At that time, the snow-stitched pine tree that Canggu was about to cut was growing on the cliff. He tied a rope and went down the cliff to cut the tree. Four disciples, including Qiongdong, worked on the cliff. When several disciples pulled the tree up, they suddenly heard Canggu's shouting. At the same time, a black shadow jumped up to the cliff. Except for Qiongdong who escaped, the other three apprentices were all dead."

"The rope found on Canggu is filled with mucus that cannot be washed off at the broken mouth. We cannot recognize this thing. On the contrary, it is certain that it comes from the alien demon. He was probably killed by the alien demon. "

Xi Gaoshui sighed and continued, "Seven of the school were found on the south slope of Fengxiu Cliff. It was the road up the mountain from the village. Therefore, it can be speculated that the alien demon ate the people on the cliff, came down the mountain, ran into them, and ate them together."

An old tribe named Xi Gaolan said with a stern face, "A strange demon appeared near the village and killed eleven people. The situation was very urgent, but some things were still clear."

She stopped here, and Xi Qiaoshui waved her hand to Xi Qiongdong, "Dong'er, go get some tea for everyone."

"Oh, okay." Xi Qiongdong glanced at the teapot he had just brought on the table and left tactfully.

After sending him away, Xi Qiaoshui looked at Xi Qiaolan, "He is my grandson after all, so you can talk about it."

Others don't understand why, wait quietly for them to explain their doubts.

Xi Zhaolan said, "After losing Canggu, only Aunt Yuyan, who was named Yi, was left in the village. Aunt Yuyan, who was named Yi, was born in the generation of Yi, and Aunt Yuyan, who was named Yi, was already old and had difficulty moving. Only the Aquarius Master had no strength to report to the Shui Master. What is gratifying is that Qiongdong realized the power of his soul due to this incident, and there was another spiritual enlightenment in the village!"

Xi Cangjin showed excitement, "Good things, good things!"

Gu Jianxia also told the waterway to the table and "congratulations to the village chief."

Xi Gaoshui nodded with a smile and signaled Xi Gaolan to continue.

"It's just a few of us here, so I'll talk about it." Xi Gaolan stared at Gu Jianxia, ​​"I feel that I will tell the sky that we believe in benevolence, righteousness and etiquette. The Xi family is aligned by words, grasping people's hearts and unity. If it weren't for this, how could it be passed down from generation to generation?"

"The Yuan Master has always been the core of the clan. Keeping a Yuan Master can ensure the clan's peace and stability for a hundred years. Therefore, according to the rules of the ancestors, Canggu's family background will be inherited by Qiongdong. In the future, Qiongdong will support you. As for Huanyan, he will be thirteen years old in another year. Jieshi entered the genealogy, took the name, and included it as the choice of the clan elders. If you have a clan supply, you can worry less."

...What is the good abacus for this?

Gu Jianxia smiled angrily, "You've made a mistake, why did Canggu's family inheritance be inherited by Qiongdong?"

After Xi Cangjin was stunned, he thought about it and advised her, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, listen to the clan's explanation first. In fact, my brother also received a lot of help from the clan back then."

"Your brother told me that when you two lost their parents when they were young, their houses and property were allocated to the so-called great creditors by the clan, and then they took turns to support you.

It was not until Canggu showed his power that he was taken over by old lady Foyan and taught the craftsmanship.

I have no objection to you, which is based on the strong, but have you forgotten that I am a martial artist, and even if I practice martial arts alone, I can beat you, the patriarch.

Not to mention this, do you think Canggu has a lot of wealth? Apart from this courtyard, have other property not been subsidized into the village early?"

Xi Gaoshui felt that he had lost face, but for the sake of his grandson's future, he still said with great sarcasm, "Just as the patriarch, in order to keep Qiong Dong, the future source master, you must put all the good things in front of him. Not only that, I will also trip him with blood relationship. As for you, I also hope that you can trip him with teacher relationship.

You are a martial artist, but everyone knows that the Yuan Master who practices martial arts is the real potential future powerhouse. If he can stay in the village forever, he will also provide a guarantee for more than 500 people in the village. As long as you are willing, you will have to take care of your food, clothing, housing and transportation with Huanyan."
