Patriarch enjoys meal

According to the situation in previous years, on the second day of the ceremony, the Lingqiang people who had reveled all day and night will temporarily put down all the work at hand, and everyone will catch up on sleep at home. It is a rare and quiet day among the tribe.

This year, there was an exception. It was rare for Jiang to be woken up by someone knocking on the door.

The person calling the door was eager, Jiang covered the nine-tailed fox tightly with a quilt, not a single fox fur was exposed, he managed to straighten his clothes and hair before going to open the door for them.

As soon as he opened the door, he was frowned by the tangy smell of blood. Outside the door stood four or five tribesmen, carrying a rough wooden plank with a blood man lying on it.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a blood man. Half of this man's shoulder was bitten off by some kind of beast, leaving only one arm hanging straight to the ground.There is such a big gap in his body, and he has lost an arm. Looking at his red body, he is afraid that the blood on his body will be drained.

For a moment, Jiang didn't recognize who it was from the clan.

"This... what's going on here?"

Hearing his question, the man who just knocked on the door said quickly: "We don't know either. We had a whole night of trouble, and we found him on the side of the road when the dawn cleared. This man lives by hunting. He didn't hunt anything all day. Then he can only be hungry, maybe he went hunting while everyone was celebrating, and met a powerful tiger and leopard..."

Jiang was also startled, and asked this question only after he didn't realize it for a while.After he regained his senses, he knew better than anyone else that it didn't matter how this person was hurt or what he was hurt by. He couldn't save him.

After bleeding so much, he was already breathing weakly, he was breathing in and out, and maybe he would die in the next moment.

No one in the Lingqiang tribe regarded him as a wizard, and he knew how much he was.

What's the use of sending him here now.

What he meant may not have been clear to the others when they brought him over.They just want to do their best, they are all of the same race, they look up and down every day, they can't just watch people dying and they do nothing.

The smell of blood quickly permeated the small courtyard, and a lot of blood was dripped on the ground. Jiang frowned subtly and said, "It's not easy to bite people. Be careful when you go up the mountain recently. Take this person away." Well... it's out of breath."

Beasts that can bite off half of a person's shoulder with one bite appear near the tribe, who dare not take it to heart.Is it so hungry if you don't go out to eat?Several people responded with their mouths, and they all had their own calculations in their hearts.

......

"How big is this beast that can bite like that?" Zhou Jiran was awakened by the bloody scene early in the morning, "What kind of beast is so fierce in the mountains? We have been into the mountains with Jiang Ye a few times, and we are lucky, but we have never seen."

Tao Jiang nodded and said yes.

As soon as he looked up, he saw a big bag bulging in the quilt on the bed. Zhou already saw the eight fox tails twisting restlessly under the quilt, and he had an epiphany in his heart: "Our boss is still a boss without a tail. After all, it is a beast."

Although it was a half-grown cub, the ordinary beasts on the mountain still didn't dare to offend Shenwei. They followed up the mountain and never saw any beasts on the mountain.

I thought this was the end of the matter, and at worst, we would go hunting in the mountains in the future. We should try our best to go together, a few young and strong guys get together, and it is not certain who will be afraid of the wild beast again.

No one expected that the follow-up would be like blood stains dripping on the slate in the courtyard, soaking into the texture of the slate, black and red, looking very strange and ominous.

People in the clan began to disappear continuously, and one disappeared every one or two days, and no one was alive or dead.

Panic spread among the Lingqiang people.

No one dares to go up the mountain anymore, but the number of people disappearing does not decrease but increases, one a day, two a day...

Some people say that monsters that eat people have infiltrated the group, while others say that this is a disaster from the gods...

All the existing clansmen gathered in the square in front of Jiangmen to let the patriarch make up his mind.

Jiang still didn't participate in this clan meeting. He hid behind the door and looked out through the crack of the door.

Although many people were missing, the Lingqiang clan was considered a large clan, and there were still thousands of them until now. They sat around the high platform, covering a large area, and everyone's faces were full of panic and panic.

"Patriarch! Can't drag on any longer!"

"More than 100 people have disappeared, and these are young people in the clan! If we drag on, our Lingqiang clan may be wiped out!"

"..."

"After raising him for so many years, it's time to use him!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was quiet for a few seconds, and then there was a loud noise, and everyone expressed their opinions in a hurry.

"He is the wizard of my clan, this should have been his responsibility!"

"Yes! Whether it's demons doing evil or gods punishing them, these are all problems that wizards have to solve for their people!"

"Yes! You can't raise him for nothing!"

"He is so old, he should be a clansman..."

"We raised him just to..."

Standing on the high platform, the patriarch with gray hair and ravines on his face, but his eyes were sharp and bright. He raised his hand to signal the people below to be quiet, and then said, "He hasn't left any descendants for the Lingqiang tribe. If he is used to solve this crisis... ...what to do next."

There was silence, and some young clansmen didn't know what the adults were discussing, but they still knew who they were talking about. Hearing the words of the patriarch, several mischievous half-grown children shouted loudly: "Ah! Nayi likes him! Let Anayi give him a baby!"

The adults around quickly pulled back the children who spoke, and covered their mouths to prevent them from talking nonsense.

Anayi, who was standing behind the patriarch, was wearing a red dress, but her face was very pale. She quickly glanced in the direction of Jiang Yuanzi, but finally lowered her head and said nothing.

After the celebration that day, she was locked up at home by her father. Apart from being unsafe outside, she also missed her thoughts about Jiang.

In the past, she never understood why her father didn't like her dating Jiang. In her opinion, there was no young man in the clan who could compare with Jiang.

Moreover, there are countless little girls in the clan pretending to pass by half the clan, just to take a sneak peek at him.

Only the father would feel that he was not good enough for him.

It wasn't until her elder brother quietly told her the truth not long ago that she suddenly realized that it was her family who was sorry for Jiang, and the whole tribe was sorry for Jiang.

The patriarch snorted coldly, feeling very unhappy: "There is no need to mention this matter again, the blood of the wizard must never be broken!"

The patriarch is very prestigious in the clan, since he has spoken, the people below can only accept their thoughts.Many clansmen whose family members were not missing even supported the patriarch's order. If Jiang is used this time, what will happen to them in the future... what to do.

Relying on the fact that no one could see it, Zhou already watched this nondescript "I don't know how many sessions of the Lingqiang Clan Conference" lying on the courtyard gate.

Zhou already summed it up. After discussing and discussing, they finally came up with the following guidelines that need to be implemented: Do not go out at night, go out together during the day... Hurry up and arrange a blind date with Jiang.

To put it bluntly, the last point is to breed ginger as soon as possible.

Zhou was already shocked: "Are all the wizards of the Emotional Qiang tribe disposable consumables? Or are they inherited by blood?"

It was said before that the Lingqiang people did not respect Jiang as a wizard, but now it seems that they do not regard Jiang as a person at all.

Although Tao Jiang has no expression on his daily face, he will not be as cold as he is now. He looks coldly at the Lingqiang people outside who are shirking each other, for fear that their daughter will be chosen to leave Jiang's offspring.

"These people are... shameless."

Zhou Jiran agreed very much: "It's really outrageous. According to them, Jiang's lineage is dedicated to protecting the Lingqiang people. It's fine if they don't feel grateful, but they treat him like a tool with peace of mind."

When he returned to the shed angrily, he saw Jiang sitting on the edge of the bed, stroking the fox preoccupied.

After a long while, he seemed to have made up his mind, put the fox on the ground, took a piece of polished and smooth bronze piece from its neck, stroked the pattern on the bronze piece, and hung the bronze piece on the neck of the nine-tailed fox As soon as it was hung up, the small copper piece sank into the thick white fur and disappeared.

The nine-tailed fox played with its paws.

Jiang hugged the nine-tailed fox, regardless of whether it understood or not, whispered in its ear: "This copper plate is a token of my lineage. It has been worn by wizards for generations, and it has some spiritual energy. Afterwards, the Lingqiang tribe There will be no more wizards, the inheritance is broken with me, and this token is useless... Wearing it is good for your practice, so don't lose it..."

"Don't come here again, they...are not good people." Looking at the clear eyes of the Nine-Tailed Fox, Jiang suddenly couldn't speak anymore. He turned his head and calmed down before continuing. : "The parents and mothers of my lineage never survived until the next generation grows up, and several generations share the same name. Although it is not elegant, I think it is not bad. No one will use it again in the future. Unique, if you can cultivate a human form in the future, you can also use this ready-made name..."

Hearing this, Zhou Jiran yelled strangely: "Oh, what a coincidence, isn't this a hit with fame?" As he said that, he took Tao Jiang by the arm.

Tao Jiang's eyes were heavy: "There is even more coincidence."

Zhou Ziran said: "What?"

Tao Jiang pulled out a thin rope braided with silk thread from his neck, on which hung the bronze piece that Jiang took out.

Zhou Jiran glanced at the one hanging around Nine-Tailed Fox's neck, then at Tao Jiang's neck, and thought: "That's really a coincidence..."

No, can you make it clear that you are Jiang's descendant, or are you just this... Nine-Tailed Fox? !

The emotion on Zhou Jiran's face was so obvious that he didn't need to speak, and Tao Jiang also knew what he really wanted to ask.

"I really don't know." Tao Jiang was also very confused. He didn't expect that the copper plate he had worn since he was a child had such a background. Even the name didn't seem to be what his grandfather said: because his mother was pregnant with his own When I was a child, I especially liked to eat pickled ginger, so it was named Tao Jiang.

While they were struggling on this side, they had already begun to say goodbye on the other side.

Jiang opened a small hole in the wall made of branches and planks at the back of the shed, and he signaled Nine-Tailed Fox to leave from here: "While they are all on the other side of the square now, you go quietly from here."

The nine-tailed fox tilted its head to look at the hole and at Jiang squatting next to it, happily jumped onto Jiang's back, hugged Jiang's neck from behind, and rubbed its hairy head against Jiang's neck.

Jiang sighed, hugged it into his arms, and said, "I can't play anymore, you are the smartest, and you must not be seen by others after you go out, they don't know good from bad..."

"Cultivate well after you go out, and you will become Nine Tails as soon as possible. Eight tails are not good-looking."

Hearing this, the nine-tailed fox looked down at its own eight tails, groaned a little bit aggrievedly, straightened up in Jiang's arms, gently rubbed Jiang's chin, then jumped off the ground, burrowed out of the hole and left up.

Jiang looked at the hole for a long time, saw it moving quickly, like a white afterimage quickly disappeared from sight, and then he plugged the hole in the wall with peace of mind.

Zhou Weiran and Tao Jiang were already prepared to be dragged through the wall, but after waiting for a long time, they still stayed where they were. This seems to be...untied?
