Chapter 156: The problem of the six elders

Views:

Ye Xiaotian is a good and polite boy, he has always known how to respect the elders and the virtuous, but now that his status is different, he pays more attention to the role of example, when he saw this white-haired old lady walking towards him tremblingly holding two bowls of black porridge Come over, quickly take the initiative to meet him, took the porridge bowl politely, and said with a smile: "Grandma is careful, she knows I'm hungry. Grandma, what kind of porridge is this? Although it doesn't look good, it smells delicious."

Elder Ge Cailao can also speak Chinese, but she probably only traveled to the Central Plains when she was young. She has not used Chinese for so many years, and her accent is already a bit blunt. She smiled and replied: "I don't dare to say that as a venerable. You call me Elder Cai is just being polite. This bowl of porridge is a good thing. The four elders take care of it at the same time. One plant matures every sixty years and is used to boil it." Porridge can only be enjoyed when the previous venerables ascended the throne."

Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but smile when he heard it, it's so rare, no need to ask, it must be a good thing? Could it be that if you drink it in one sip, there will be a wave of true energy rushing up to the mud pill and down to the spring, and the eight meridians and meridians will run through together, and you will immediately reach the supreme state of three flowers gathering at the top and five qis facing the source

Ge Cai still smiled, and explained slowly: "Once you eat this bowl of porridge, ten thousand Gu will not invade, hehe, it is just snakes, insects, mosquitoes and ants, and they will not dare to come near your body from now on."

Mao Wenzhi said: "Oh my god, I smelled very fragrant. I thought it was a good thing. After a long time, it was a bowl of drinkable mosquito coil..." Several elders glared at him. The troublemaker got pulled aside.

Ye Xiaotian’s experience in Thunder God’s Forbidden Land is still vivid in his memory. The strange insect has already cast a shadow on his heart. Now he talks about the change of insect color, and wants to hide away when he sees a cockroach. Avoiding all poisonous poisons in the world, snakes, insects, mosquitoes and ants are no problem, I was overjoyed immediately, and quickly took the porridge and gulped it down.

Ye Xiaotian was already very hungry. This group of respectful guys just changed him into good clothes, but they didn't care about his stomach. He was starving right now, so he drank up the bowl of porridge in a short time. , Zaba Zaba taste, I feel that it is not much different from egg drop soup.

Ye Xiaotian handed the empty bowl to Mr. Ge Cai, wiped his mouth, picked up another bowl of porridge, and asked excitedly: "Grandma... Elder Cai, what good is this bowl?" Ye Xiaotian asked, He has already brought the porridge bowl to his mouth.

Ge Cai said with a smile: "There is nothing unusual about this bowl, but it is just a bowl of jue si soup."

"Peerless Soup? It sounds very powerful. Will it be invulnerable if you drink it?" Because the tone of Ge Cai's Chinese language is relatively blunt, Ye Xiaotian automatically interprets "Peerless" as "Peerless" " After hearing his words, several elders laughed.

Ge Dewa explained: "My lord, this bowl of soup is forbidden to reproduce, it is extinct, not extinct."

"puff!"

Ye Xiaotian just took a sip of the soup into his mouth, and after hearing Godeva's explanation, he spit it out in one gulp.

"Bah bah bah! Bah bah bah!"

Ye Xiaotian spat out a mouthful of soup, changed his color and said, "Jue Si? You mean, after drinking this bowl of soup, you won't be able to have children?"

Seeing his complexion changed drastically, Godewa would be mistaken, hurriedly approached his ear, and explained in a low voice: "My lord, don't get me wrong, after drinking this bowl of soup, a man is still a man, and his ability is much stronger than before. You can't have offspring."

Ye Xiaotian said: "What's the reason? Why can't they have offspring?"

The elders looked at each other, every believer in the God Sect knew this rule, but this venerable came down by air, and he didn't understand any rules, so it would take a lot of trouble to explain it to him.

Mr. Gecai pondered for a while, and said slowly: "This is the rule passed down when I taught the first generation of venerables. In order to prevent the divine religion from becoming a family with one family name, when each generation of venerables ascended the throne, they must Consume this bowl of jue si soup and leave no descendants of yourself."

Ge Dewa said: "Not only the venerable, but we elders have also served Duan Sitang. The venerable is the servant of the Gu God and does not need his own offspring. All the believers of the Gu God are his children and will know Revere him like a father."

Ye Xiaotian thought: "Nonsense! No matter how revered you are, it's not your own!"

Ye Xiaotian returned the bowl of soup to Ge Cailao with an ugly face. As a boy who grew up in the Central Plains, the concept of "unfilial piety has three things, and having no offspring is the greatest" has already been deeply rooted in his bones. Neither do.

Ye Xiaotian now finally understands why the previous venerable had so many concubines who are as beautiful as flowers and jade, but has no heirs. He also understands why the previous venerable wants to pass the throne to his son, but this son is a woodcutter. A bastard child of the cover.

At first, he thought that the previous venerable had many sons, but it was not easy to pass on the throne to them, so as not to make the believers think that he was acting for private interests, so he came up with an ingenuity, and changed the identity of one of the sons since he was a child, and raised him as a woodcutter. around.

After a long time of trouble, the Venerable could not have children at all, and the previous Venerable was simply a son secretly born by the previous Venerable before he succeeded or even became an elder. If this matter had been exposed early, he might not even be an elder.

Ge Cai said in surprise, "Your Honor?"

Ye Xiaotian said: "I won't be a venerable who cuts off his sons and grandchildren!"

The six elders were stunned when they heard these words. Refusing to be the supremely honored patron of the gods? For thousands of years, this kind of thing has never happened in the Gu God Sect, so the six elders didn't know how to deal with it.

These believers have studied Gu art all their lives, are obsessed with powerful Gu art, and have never doubted the existence of Gu God. Perhaps some of them have some doubts, and that is after they have become senior elders and come into contact with the core secrets of the god religion. It's over.

Therefore, they do not have any psychological barriers to becoming Venerable, but are extremely eager. Even when they were young, they were chosen as their successors by the previous elder, and they drank Jue Si Tang happily and gratefully, but now...their new venerable actually refuses to take the throne!

Godewa said with an ugly face: "My lord..."

Ye Xiaotian quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't, don't, don't call me that. The rules of your religion are too inhuman. Uncle Gedeva, you should choose someone else. I won't do this venerable."

Gedeva's face turned black, why don't you do it? If you don't do it, what are you doing on the terrace with a magic robe and a holy staff in your hand? You also lit the holy smoke and rang the holy bell. Do you think this is a big show? The previous venerable didn't know what he was thinking, why did he appoint you as venerable

Now all the eighty-one villages in Jiudong recognize you as a venerable, you say you quit? The Venerable is not something you can be if you want to be, nor can you be if you don’t want to be. What do you think of this sacred inheritance? Once this story spreads, the so-called Gu God's designated inheritance will be destroyed immediately. How can we maintain the absolute control of the God Sect over the mountain seedlings in Jiudong Eighty-one Village

Godewa has no doubts about Ye Xiaotian's inheritance, because if this set of inheritance artifacts had not been bestowed by the venerable, it would have been impossible for Ye Xiaotian to fall into his hands.

At this time, although there are many people in the main hall, they are all the leading figures in Jiudong Eighty-one Village. In addition to the chiefs, there are also prestigious elders from various tribes. Even if there are only two or three people from each village, there are more than two hundred people. There are already many people, so it is very crowded.

Although the hall was crowded, no one dared to come near the position of the Venerable's throne to show respect for the Venerable. But even so, they were not far away. At this time, seeing the elders surrounding the new Venerable, each of them looked very ugly, and everyone couldn't help but look at each other. The hall gradually became quiet, and everyone looked in this direction.

Ge Cai was a little flustered. If the new venerable yells in public that he does not want to be a venerable, the prestige of the entire temple will immediately plummet. No matter how this matter is resolved, we must first stabilize the venerable.

Thinking of this, Mr. Gecai coughed, winked at the other five elders, and said to Ye Xiaotian: "My lord, please go to the back hall to rest first. It's inconvenient to make rash decisions on such important matters. Let's talk about them later."

Ye Xiaotian was a little hesitant at first, then thought about it: "I have just ascended the throne, I am the heir designated by Gu God, you will never kill me, and then randomly arrest someone to make up the number, then how can you tell Jiutong Eighty-one?" The people in the village explained that they were not stupid.

Besides, I've already drank that bowl of 'mosquito incense', no matter how powerful your Gu is, it won't be able to deal with me, if you fight... I can't beat young people, if you can't even beat you old men and women in their 70s and 80s, I might as well find a piece Tofu was killed head-on. "

Thinking of this, Ye Xiaotian also acted as a bachelor, and said straightforwardly: "Okay, let's talk later!"

Gecai randomly found a reason to explain to everyone, and walked back with the other five elders hugging Ye Xiaotian. Yang Yinglong always wanted to come over and talk to Ye Xiaotian, but he was first entangled by An Nantian, and then the six elders Talking with Ye Xiaotian, he is a person outside the sect, although he has a noble status, it is inconvenient to go forward, seeing the six elders accompanying Ye Xiaotian to the back hall, he can't help but secretly anxious.

The six elders accompanied Ye Xiaotian to the ninth floor of the temple. This place has just been cleaned by the guards of the Gu God Sect, and the blood on the ground has also been cleaned, but the traces of swords on some doors and windows are still visible.

The Sixth Elder accompanied Ye Xiaotian into the small living room where the Venerable had guests, and tried to persuade him, but Ye Xiaotian just refused to let go, and seeing that the Sixth Elder was so submissive, it was expected that they would be afraid and dare not do anything to him, Ye Xiaotian's confidence was even stronger. Enough.

Seeing this, Gedwa pondered for a moment, and said to Ye Xiaotian: "My lord, this is a rule that has been passed down since the establishment of this religion, and no one dares to violate it. Now that your lord is dissatisfied with this regulation, we have not done anything." I have made up my mind. Can the venerable take a break here, and let me discuss a solution later?"

Ye Xiaotian said: "Of course, I will wait for you here."

The six elders saluted Ye Xiaotian slowly, and slowly exited the small hall, the door was closed by the guards at the door, the six elders turned around and came to another small hall opposite, instead of sitting down, they just stood there with such an ugly expression. Ge Dewa said: "Her Majesty hastily selected this person as his successor for some reason, but he refused to follow the rules I taught. What should we do now?"
