Chapter 41 Clan Meeting

The system was monitoring Leng Qi. When he came back from the temple today, the tree man did not return to the tree and kept lurking on the eaves. He heard everything Cheng Xiaoxiao and the others said.

Cheng Xiaoxiao told the system not to worry about it. She also wanted to know what would happen if Yan Lan knew about it?

She took a risk, and if Yan Lan guessed something fishy, ​​she would not reap the rewards.

But she still gambled. If Yan Lan knew about it, maybe she could save more people? After all, Yan Lan's status was not low, and she was so humble that she could only think of ways to save a whole village. If Yan Lan intervened, she might be able to save more lives.

In the final analysis, it was her poor compassion that caused the problem.

——

What is Tree Man Leng Qi doing?

Heaven and man are at war.

One person said: "This is a life-threatening matter. It needs to be reported to the Pavilion Master immediately and arranged as soon as possible."

Another villain said: "There is no evidence. Facts prove that there is no such thing. Then he will not be able to eat and walk around, and he may be beaten back to the secret camp, and his life will be worse than death."

Report!

Still not reporting it!

Leng Qi struggled countless times this night!

Human life—future—consequences—conscience—

When the sky was slightly bright, Leng Qi finally made up his mind to report it!

Regardless of whether it was true or not, he was only responsible for collecting intelligence. The Pavilion Master would make his own decision whether he believed it or not. All he had to do was execute it. After thinking about this, he felt much better. He flew back to the branch of the tree and blew his whistle, attracting the crowd.

Eagle, delivered the letter.

If nothing happened, he would have no choice but to admit defeat!

Early the next morning, the clan leader sent someone to invite Cheng Qiang and Cheng Yong. Since Cheng Xiaoxiao was also a party involved and had to go for questioning, Cheng Xiaoxiao had expected it, but it was too early!

The ancients were not good at this. No matter young or old, they would not sleep in. She, a night owl, had been here for so long and still couldn't get used to it.

Yawning, I slowly got up.

The two girls on the side urged her to get up and prepare breakfast, but her sister was still lying in bed. Ever since she fell into the water, she especially liked to sleep in. If there was no big issue, she would lose her temper.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was in a daze, "Erya, you are already 80 years old. Which young girl wakes up so early? Be careful not to be pretty in the future."

Why go to bed early and get up early to be in good health! This does not exist in Cheng Xiaoxiao.

Erya had no choice but to follow Cheng Xiaoxiao's words: "Everything Sister said is right."

Who asked her to have such a sister!

Her head is always unclear in the morning. If you don't agree with her, she may talk nonsense for half an hour. If she gets angry, she may be punished by writing big words.

What else can you do if it doesn’t go your way!

Cheng Xiaoxiao pouted, "You know how to deal with me, get up! Get up!"

Why!

My sister has a hard-working life and has to run for a living before dawn.

The system heard the host's inner murmur and was speechless, "Host, it's already dawn, and you are the only one in the family who hasn't gotten up. Even Qi Fei has come to grind the medicine powder."

Cheng Xiaoxiao always forgets about the system, and all the complaints in his heart are his own. They are private, and the system is so unethical that he eavesdrops every time.

When I heard the host slandering me like this, the system got mad, "Host, you are too good at wronging people, no! You are wronging the system. I am in your mind. I will naturally accept whatever you think. You don't want me to hear it, so why bother?"

I?"

"Who wants to hear your slander? It's obvious that I am impure at heart and have a lot of small thoughts. I don't even dislike you for being noisy!" The system looked disgusted. If it had a face.

Cheng Xiaoxiao "."

Is this system going to rebel?

With such a useless system, how dare you despise its owner?

Otherwise, it’s better not to have it!

Cheng Xiaoxiao has no shielding system for these thoughts.

The system went silent for a moment.

It's useless?

Does the host want to abandon it?

What to do with it?

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't care what the system thought. It had been too out of touch recently, thinking that the earth would not rotate without it. What the hell! Pour some cold water on it and wake up.

Then it was blocked directly.

After breakfast, she and Cheng's father went to the Cheng family ancestral hall. Cheng Xiaoxiao had been here for so long, and this was the first time she heard that a meeting would be held in the ancestral hall. According to her father, opening an ancestral hall was very cumbersome.

First of all, after choosing a day and hour, the clan leader will burn incense, bathe, pray to the ancestors, and bow three times and nine times before entering the ancestral hall. Unless there is a particularly big event, the ancestral hall cannot be opened, which shows that the clan attaches great importance to this matter.

The ancestral hall is in the middle of the village, behind the patriarch's house and at the foot of the mountain.

The outside of the door was full of women and children. They had not received the news and were all curious about what happened. They actually opened the ancestral hall, and they were talking enthusiastically.

Cheng Xiaoxiao stepped into the door, and there were all clansmen with status inside, such as the third uncle who helped them last time, the fourth uncle and seventh uncle from the clan leader's lineage, and about ten people from the village chief's lineage, some of whom came

Some I know, some I don't.

Facing such a big scene, Cheng Xiaoxiao looked calm. He had never seen any big scenes in his previous life. This group of old people in the village looked majestic and solemn, but in fact they were all paper tigers.

On the contrary, Father Cheng was a little nervous, and his voice trembled a little when he greeted the family members.

People around were whispering and exchanging the information they had obtained. Some elders looked puzzled. Since it was such an important meeting, why did you call a little girl to come?

When someone close to him revealed the reason, he suddenly realized it and stopped talking.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, the patriarch coughed! He signaled his grandson to close the door, and soon the heavy door was insulated. The people outside were watching the excitement, and then solemnly said: "Since everyone is here, let's not beat around the bush. This time the matter is serious.

, Gather everyone together and listen to everyone’s suggestions or ideas. Cheng Yong, please tell everyone the specific situation first.”

Cheng Yong was worried, but he didn't dare to neglect. He said what his daughter had told him yesterday in front of everyone.

The words have fallen!

There was a collective silence in the ancestral hall for five seconds, as if they had not digested the impact of Cheng Yong's words.

Then they all accused Cheng Yong

No one believes this nonsense.

Someone asked: "Then Master Jingyuan is not Master Lingming. Can you believe what he said?"

Someone else said: "We are asked to collect grain in advance. If we cannot pay taxes and grain by then, who will be responsible for the losses?"

Others were more direct, "It's all nonsense, I don't believe it anyway."

Then, someone answered: "The little girl liar has nightmares, which are related to natural disasters, so how come we didn't have such a dream? She just got a reminder from God, who is she fooling!"

Most of the people who say these things are from the clan leader lineage and some from the neutral faction.

People from the village chief's lineage, Cheng Xiaoxiao, seemed dubious, but the village chief didn't speak and they didn't rush to jump out.

The majestic uncles even looked at Cheng Yong with stern faces, thinking that this kid must be talking nonsense.

The third uncle originally thought that this younger generation was honest and reliable, respected his elders, and was diligent and down-to-earth. Now he couldn't help but remind him, "Xiao Er, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say random words. What you said is meant for us."

There are more than 200 people in the village responsible for this, so no joke."

Originally, so many people were attacking Father Cheng. Father Cheng felt guilty and didn't know what to do. When the third uncle said this, he became even more uneasy. How could he be responsible for something that didn't happen? He didn't know. He was doing it for the village.

Okay, why are you attacking him now?
