Chapter 6 Drawing Lots

"Feihong, are you up?" Zhan Feihong was thinking about how to reveal his abilities bit by bit at his home, when a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.

He hurriedly put away the two gold-eating ants, turned around and opened the door. "Brother Xingyuan, what can I do?" Standing at the door was Zhan Xingyuan, the uncle's son, with an impatient expression on his face.

"My father told the clan members of our generation to gather in front of the hall, do you understand?" Zhan Xingyuan said as he turned around and left.

"Brother Xingyuan, can you tell me what uncle asked us to do?" Zhan Feihong felt strange after hearing what his cousin said and couldn't help asking.

"I still have to inform the other brothers and sisters, and you will know when the time comes." Zhan Xingyuan didn't even look back, and quickly disappeared around the corner.

"I don't know why uncle called us children over..." Zhan Feihong naturally had to go after the master's order. He quickly washed up and came to the open space in front of the Zhan family's lobby.

At this time, four or five young men had gathered in front of the hall, and the most conspicuous among them was the cousin Zhan Mang.

"Hey, you trash snack, you came early enough!" Before Zhan Mang could say anything, the boy next to him started to cause trouble.

Zhan Feihong glanced sideways at the boy, then turned to Zhan Mang without replying.

"Shut up!" Zhan Mang's eyebrows jumped at the sight of Zhan Feihong, and he reached out and slapped the boy on the head: "The uncle will be here in a moment. If you want anything, let's wait until the uncle leaves!"

The boy almost missed being slapped. He rubbed the back of his head, looked at Zhan Mang inexplicably, and thought to himself: Usually you are the one who causes the most trouble, and you never look at the situation. How come you have such a sudden change?!

But after thinking about it, he didn't dare not listen to Zhan Mang's words, so he could only shrink his shoulders and stop talking.

The three playmates who had witnessed Zhan Mang being beaten last time were also nearby. When they saw Zhan Mang's unusual behavior, they believed in Zhan Feihong's sudden ability even more. Each one of them looked over his shoulder, kept their mouths shut, and did not dare to peek.

Take a look at Zhan Feihong.

For a while, the open space was quiet, no one made a sound, and it was extremely awkward.

Zhan Feihong walked to a tree, leaned against the tree trunk, and stared at the path beside the lobby. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly involuntarily. He didn't expect that his cousin, who had always been domineering, would also be afraid of him. What a turn of events.

Finally, the footsteps of his uncle, his second uncle, and the remaining brothers of his generation broke the awkward atmosphere in the distance. Zhan Keding walked up to the steps, glanced at the juniors in front of the hall, and after making sure that the number was good, he coughed.

, shouted loudly: "Quiet!"

With this shout, the children in front of the hall who had just arrived and were chatting with their peers felt as if a giant gong was beating violently in their ears. They trembled all over and quickly closed their mouths.

Only Zhan Feihong didn't feel anything unusual. He casually reached out and patted the wood chips on his back, turned around and stood at attention.

It's a pity that he turned his back on the two elders, otherwise, Zhan Keding and Zhan Kemanding would be secretly shocked.

"I called you here today because I want to mention something to you." Zhan Keding saw that the attention of the juniors was focused on him, so he began to say: "I believe you all know the Liu family in Shuyang Town, right?"

After everyone nodded, he continued: "The Liu family sent a gift list last night. I hope our Zhan family can send people to help them kill a ferocious beast!"

"Beast?!" Hearing this word, the children in front of the hall were in chaos again.

"What a ferocious beast, I have never seen it before when I grow up!" A child shouted excitedly.

"It's not just that you haven't seen it before. Who among us brothers and sisters has seen it?" another child asked.

"I wonder what the ferocious beast we dealt with this time looks like?" the little girl named "Ling'er" asked innocently.

Zhan Keding looked at the excited smiling faces of his juniors and felt very uncomfortable in his heart. But for the sake of the reproduction and prosperity of the family, sometimes sacrifices should be made...

"Okay, everyone, be quiet!" Zhan Keman seemed to see the hesitation in Zhan Keding's brows, and said quickly: "Listen to the master and continue speaking!"

Zhan Keding glanced at his second brother uncertainly, and said slowly: "I have agreed to this invitation, and will send out the two elders of the family! As for why I called you here, I want to choose one.

You, go together with the elders and broaden your horizons, so as to avoid the other two families saying that the children of our Zhan family have never seen the world!"

As soon as the words fell, the children in front of the hall opened their mouths in excitement and were speechless. After a few breaths, one of the children shouted: "Uncle, I want to go!"

One person took the lead, and several others followed. Before long, the shouts of "I'm going!" were like waves, rising and falling in the open space, getting louder and louder.

"Don't be anxious, line up and draw lots to decide!" Zhan Keman didn't wait for his elder brother to speak, and took out the box hidden behind his back without permission. In the box, there were placed the corresponding number of balls for the juniors present. The mouth of the box

Cover tightly with black cloth.

After hearing what the second uncle said, the children lined up in a row like the wind. Only Zhan Feihong and Zhan Mang left a little late and became the last two.

Zhan Feihong is not as naive as other children. When his uncle mentioned this matter, his mind began to spin. Zhan Mang's attention was all focused on Zhan Feihong. When he saw that he was not moving, he subconsciously stayed in place.

.

"Brother Mang, please go first." Zhan Feihong smiled at Zhan Mang next to him and said casually.

"No, no, you go first, I'll just stand behind." Zhan Mang waved his hands in a panic. Ever since he was punched open, he didn't know how to treat this cousin who had bullied him for four years.

"Then I'm not welcome." Zhan Feihong originally wanted to stay in the last place, but a white light flashed in his head, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he stopped talking nonsense and ranked second to last.

As he saw that the children in front of him were all pulling out white balls, the doubt in the boy's heart became more and more serious.

"You two are the only ones left. Come on, take one." Zhan Keman had a smile on his lips and watched Zhan Feihong's every move with his narrowed eyes.

Zhan Feihong raised his head and glanced at his second uncle, then put his hand into the box through the black cloth.

As soon as his finger touched down, he came into contact with a round ball. The boy turned his hand around again, but did not meet another one. He couldn't help but want to forget it, but as a strange aura came from the corner

Bodang, he understood that there was a problem here.

If it were Zhan Feihong a month ago, he would definitely not have noticed this wave of spiritual energy.

He tilted his head slightly, as if he was wondering what to choose. In fact, his eyes secretly glanced at the second uncle's hand holding up the box. At this glance, he immediately understood the other party's intention.

I saw a very faint white light glowing on the palm of the second uncle's hand. Since most of it was blocked by black cloth, you really wouldn't notice it if you didn't check it deliberately.

"How about it, Feihong, have you decided?" It seemed that Zhan Keman was afraid that it would take too long and others would find out, so he began to urge.

However, Zhan Feihong seemed dumbfounded and didn't respond. He just stood there stiffly.

"Feihong, hurry up, the master is still waiting for the results?" Zhan Keman looked at his appearance and couldn't help but move his head forward a few inches, wanting to take a closer look.

"Ah——!" Unexpectedly, just as he bowed his head, Zhan Feihong shouted loudly, which frightened Zhan Keman and almost shook the box to the ground.

Of course, the aura controlling the ball was also interrupted by the scream. The young man took this opportunity to quickly reach for the corresponding position of Zhan Keman's palm, and sure enough he touched the other ball.

"Second uncle, Feihong has chosen!" Before Zhan Keman could react, he took out the ball without hesitation.

"You, you -" Zhan Keman looked at the white ball in Feihong's hand, and a layer of white sweat suddenly appeared on the back of his neck.

Now the only one who has not drawn a lot is his own son Zhan Mang, and if the lot is drawn, it will definitely be red!

Let his son and those two old ghosts go to Yincang Mountain...?

Zhan Keman's eyes suddenly became filled with murderous intent, and he wished he could strangle the three nephews in front of him to death immediately!

"Since Feihong is drawing white balls, Mang'er, you go with the two elders." But before he could lose his composure, Zhan Keding stood sideways in front of him and said to the juniors: "

This matter is settled now, let’s break up!” After saying that, he took Zhan Keman’s arm and left first.

Relying on Zhan Keman's red eyes just now, Zhan Feihong was even more sure that helping the Liu family to kill the ferocious beasts this time was by no means as simple as the uncle said. Fortunately, he was quick and discovered the problem, otherwise

You might suffer a loss.

"Ha, since Brother Mang is here for me, I believe that the second uncle will try his best to ensure safety. I wonder what kind of suffering he will suffer." The young man smiled softly and glanced at the man who was about to lead his playmates away in the distance.

After a few glances, he walked back to the house alone.

...

"Brother, you can't let Mang'er go!" Zhan Ke begged Zhan Keding with a look of mourning on his face.

"You came up with this idea in the first place. Why, do you want to regret it?" Zhan Keding walked to the table, poured a cup of tea, and looked at his second brother coldly.

"I know it was me, but..." Zhan Keman didn't know what to say anymore. He never thought that Zhan Feihong, a fourteen-and-a-half-year-old boy, could see through his tricks and still use them.

His way will be applied to him.

"Anyway, Mang'er can't go!" he begged again.

"Why, your son can't go, but your third brother's son can go?" Zhan Keding said with a sullen face: "Don't think that I don't know about the mess in your belly. You made such a move, didn't you just want to take advantage of it?

Kill him and seize that five-star spiritual beast!"

When Zhan Keman heard what his elder brother said, his face changed drastically. He thought for less than three breaths, gritted his teeth, and knelt on the ground. "Brother, brother, I was wrong, I am guilty!"

Hearing only two crisp "pop" sounds, Zhan Keman slapped his face twice without hesitation, his eyes became red, and tears oozed from the corners of his eyes.
