Cute dragon crossing the river

Bright red blood fell from Feng Wu's fingertips, staining the green bricks under his feet red.The blood drops fell into the tiny cracks, melted into the soil and disappeared.Only the smell of blood lingered in the air.

Feng Wu walked up to the altar, picked up a candlestick, and threw it on top of the few dead bodies with a cold expression.

The flames ignited and spread to the curtains in the house, crackling the pillars and furniture, creating a miasma of smoke.Thick gray smoke billowed from the roof, and it wouldn't take long for someone to spot a fire here.

"What? The sacrificial hall is on fire!" All the elders turned pale with shock.When they confirmed this, the altar was completely burned down.

At first, some people went to put out the fire, but the fire was too big, and the hall was full of wooden furniture, so it was impossible to rescue it.

"Fire is a small matter, I'm afraid there are other big things..." Elder Qi said stammeringly: "I heard that this morning, Patriarch and Elder Lie went to the altar together, and it seems that they invited the Taoist priest to come and prepare..."

Reminiscing that the altar could not catch fire for no reason, the elders felt a little bit in their hearts, and quickly said: "Where are the Patriarch and Elder Lie? Hurry up and find them!"

Before I had time to search all over my family, the people who were fighting the fire at the altar over there sent a message saying: "Elder Lin, we found three corpses in the ruins!"

"Ah?!" The elders who heard the news were shocked.

"It's broken, it must be the Patriarch and the three of them! Go, go and have a look!" Elder Lin frowned, his hands and feet were slightly cold, and he believed that the other elders behind him were the same.

They have always been the ones who dominate other people's lives, but today's incident has woken them up, there are no absolutes in this world!

Elder Lin and several elders rushed over, only to see that the burnt sacrificial hall was like a ruin, and there were three corpses covered with white cloth in front of it.

Several elders swallowed their saliva and looked at each other.

Elder Lin walked over and lifted the white cloth of the first corpse.He saw a charred corpse. The head of this corpse was hideous and terrifying, and the original appearance could not be seen.

Taking a deep breath, he quickly put down the white cloth and dared not look at it: "What's going on? It's just a morning..." He looked up at the junior who was in charge of putting out the fire this time.

"Elder Lin, when we arrived, the altar was already burning, and the fire was so intense that we couldn't get in. After we got the fire under control, we went in and found these three corpses." Find out who is who.

"So it's not clear whether they were burned alive inside, or were they already..." Elder Lin sighed, with sad eyes, and said to the other elders, "Prepare the funeral for Patriarch and Elder Lie."

Either way, people die.

"What should we do with the Taoist priest's body?" asked the shrewd and cunning Elder Shan.

"Of course it's a matter of understanding. Our Patriarch and Elder Lie are also injured. What can they do?" Elder Lin said, and Elder Shan asked again: "How can we explain to the clan about the murder of the Patriarch? Call the police and thoroughly investigate the murderer." still……"

"Of course the murderer needs to be investigated, so there's no need to call the police. It's inconvenient to talk to outsiders about our family's private affairs." Elder Lin refused to call the police, because this matter is closely related to the family.What's more, everyone knows that Feng Liuyun and Elder Lie were killed while doing this, and who else could be the murderer.

"Alright, I'm afraid that the Patriarch and Elder Lie's family members won't agree." Elder Shan nodded in agreement, then said with a sigh.

"Patriarch's house is gradually declining, and Elder Lie's house has no outstanding juniors, so let's leave it at that." Elder Lin's eyes were cold, and he made a decision.

"Then Fengwu?" Elder Shan showed fear.

"If people don't offend me, I won't offend others. Even blood sacrifices can't do anything to him. What do you think we can do to him?" Elder Lin really sighed this time: "There is a wrong and a debtor. trouble."

The murder of Feng Liuyun and Elder Lie spread in the family overnight.The family members of the two of them were crying heartbroken, especially Feng Liuyun's wife and children, who were so young, they never thought that there would be bad news suddenly.

"Feng Wu must have done it!" Feng Shaoning said with red eyes, she gritted her teeth and asked her parents for advice: "Dad, Mom, will the elders make this matter public! It is impossible for us to seek justice!"

It was his own brother who was seriously injured before, and there was nothing he could do to take Feng Wu.Now it is killing people and losing loved ones!Feng Shaoning didn't want to stop here.

"But the head of the family is also dead, so it's impossible for the clan not to pursue it." Feng Shaoning's father said, he was wearing hemp and mourning, guarding Elder Lie's coffin in the mourning hall.

"I'm going to kill him!" Feng Shaoning thought about it, the clan was jealous of Feng Wu's ability, so they definitely didn't dare to do anything to Feng Wu, the more she thought about it, the more disappointed, the more angry she became, she rushed out of the door impulsively.

"Shaoning, where are you going?" A young man blocked Feng Shaoning's way.

"Feng Qingxi?" He is the descendant of Elder Lin, Feng Shaoning was suspicious: "What are you doing here?"

Feng Qingxi said: "Come and watch you, lest you go to die."

"Elder Lin ordered it?" Feng Shaoning pushed him away: "Don't meddle in your own business, I'm going to kill Feng Wu!"

"It's not meddling in other people's business, it's the elder's order. I was ordered to come and guard, and you are not allowed to step out of this courtyard." Feng Qingxi said forcefully, with no emotion on his face.

Feng Shaoning's eyes widened in disbelief: "What did you say? Why did Elder Rin not allow us to step out of the courtyard! Although he is an elder, my grandfather is also an elder!"

Feng Qingxi sneered: "It's true that your grandfather used to be an elder, but he is already dead. Wake up, don't think that you are still a noble granddaughter of an elder."

The descendants of Elder Lie's family are useless, and the whole family knows it.It's a pity that his younger generation likes to bully others the most, usually with their eyes above the top, and look down on other peers in the clan.

"Shao Ning?" Feng Shao Ning's mother saw her daughter coming back in a daze, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?" Just now she went out angrily to kill someone, but she couldn't be persuaded, but now she came back with a blow.

"Mom, our family is over..." Feng Shaoning knelt in front of Elder Lie's altar, repenting extremely: "Grandpa, we were wrong, we were all wrong!"

"Shao Ning, what's the matter? Don't worry about crying, okay?" Feng Shao Ning's father asked impatiently. His daughter grew up with her grandfather, and she was tainted with violent temper. despise.

"Dad, I just want to ask you, do you want to avenge grandpa!" Feng Shaoning suddenly wiped away her tears and stared at her father.

"I..." Feng's father looked at his wife, then at his daughter, and said anxiously, "I'm just a businessman, I don't know how to kill...how about we call the police?"

His answer disappointed Feng Shaoning, and her heart felt ashamed.

Like Feng Liuyun's house, Elder Lin's people are guarding the door, and they are not allowed to go out to find Feng Wu.In fact, it is also to protect them, otherwise, what's the point of killing one or killing two?

In the next three days, the funeral affairs of the Patriarch and Elder Lie were hastily handled.This matter was done secretly in the family's mansion throughout the whole process, and it was never publicized, nor was it informed to the aristocratic family with contacts.

After the funeral, only eleven of the twelve elders remained, and sooner or later a capable clan member would have to be selected to replace them.There is also the position of the head of the family. A clan master cannot be without a head for more than a month, otherwise the hearts of the people may collapse.

"Elder Lin, I think the New Year is coming soon, why not talk about the Patriarch after the New Year."

"No, no, I think it is reasonable to select the Patriarch before the year."

"The candidates for the elders have not been determined yet, and this is not something that can be decided in a short while." The elders who were in a relationship with each other shrank their hands and said, Ren Er and others were arguing.

Elder Shan habitually asked Elder Rin: "Elder Rin, what do you mean?"

Elder Lin didn't speak for a long time, and when he opened his mouth, it was a bomb: "I think my eldest son has the strength to be the head of the family. What do you think?"

The whole room fell silent, they never thought Elder Rin would be so shameless.But it doesn't matter that Elder Lin is shameless, they dared not refute in embarrassment, and they didn't nod in response, they just froze.

"Hehe, it seems that everyone has no objections, then..."

"Wait a minute." A faint voice suddenly appeared, and then the door of the meeting hall opened to both sides, and a young man with a child in his arms came slowly.

He has long hair hanging down his shoulders, phoenix eyes and vermilion lips. He is wearing a cotton robe and Chinese clothes, holding a delicate and lovely doll in his arms. On the end is a leisurely and freehand ancient painting.

There is no one who does not know him, no one who does not fear him.Because he is Feng Wu, a strong man who is not afraid of the blood sacrifice.Since the death of Feng Liuyun and Elder Lie, everyone's fear of Feng Wu has increased to a higher level.Even if he didn't know that Feng Wu had a few years to live, he didn't dare to provoke him easily.

"Feng Wu, what are you doing here?" Among the eleven elders in the room, no one spoke, and in the end, Elder Lin had to ask. He thought he had no enmity or enmity with Feng Wu.

"What were you guys talking about just now, I'm here to talk about it." Feng Wu walked into the room holding Long San, he sat down in the last seat, placed the baby on his lap, and said with a smile: "Everyone, go ahead, don't worry about it." I."

The room was silent for a while, the big guys couldn't figure out the purpose of Feng Wu's appearance, and dared not act rashly.Later, I couldn't keep quiet anymore. Elder Lin coughed dryly and said, "Then, let's continue discussing the Patriarch's matter. You haven't expressed your opinion on my proposal just now. I wonder if you have thought about it now?"

Feng Wu asked: "What proposal just now?" He glanced around at the faces of the elders: "Who will tell me?"

An elder replied in a low voice: "Elder Cai Lin proposed that his eldest son inherit the position of Patriarch."

Feng Wu raised his eyebrows and said: "Oh? I remember that the previous head of the family has not lost his heir. Didn't he have an eight-year-old son? Even if he is still young, it is not impossible to find someone to help him. Do you want to usurp the throne?"

Everyone here is like an old monk who has settled down, watching his nose, nose, nose and heart one after another, leaving this question to Elder Lin to answer by himself.

Elder Lin smiled: "We don't dare to use the word usurpation, it's just that those who can live in it. Our Feng family has been passed down for hundreds of years, relying on the hardships and strength of our ancestors, not those flashy names. My eldest son is of the same age and strength. What's wrong?"

Compared with the descendants of other elders, it is true that Elder Rin's eldest son is better.

Feng Wu nodded, he was in a good mood playing with Xiaolong's soft meaty paws, and he resisted the urge to take a bite only because of the crowd: "Since you said your eldest son is quite capable, then ask him to come with me." Bibi."

The faces of the other elders in the room were extremely exciting in an instant, and they looked at Elder Lin with half surprise and half gloating.

Now hit yourself in the foot with a rock, haha.

"..." Elder Lin's face was gloomy, unable to answer Feng Wu's question.Because no matter how good his son was, he couldn't stand Feng Wu's two beatings.

"How is it?" Feng Wu asked leisurely, lying in his arms was Long San who was spitting bubbles boredly, always trying to pull his little claws out of Feng Wu's hand, he wanted to suck his fingers.

Feng Wu lowered his eyebrows, stuffed the pacifier on Xiaolong's chest for him to bite, lest he want to suck his fingers all the time.

"Feng Wu, what do you want?" Elder Lin asked in a deep voice.

"He who can live in it, of course I want to be the head of the family." Feng Wu said his ambition in this way.

"What? You want to be the head of the family?" Many people whispered, apart from being surprised, they were puzzled, wondering how many years Feng Wu would have to live.

"Hahaha, you don't have to worry about my early death." Feng Wu said with a smile, "I have a very long life, at least I won't be as short-lived as Feng Liuyun."

When Feng Liuyun was mentioned, everyone shut their mouths and did not dare to say more.

Only Elder Lin insisted: "Feng Wu, there has never been a powerful heir to be the head of the family, let alone you are a member of the branch family, and you have long been out of the same line of the family."

Feng Wu said: "Since I don't belong to my family, why should I sacrifice my life for my family? Does my life belong to my family?" He sneered: "Elder Lin, the times have changed now, don't think it's still you old guys The final decision. Today's Feng family is a corrupt Feng family, with nothing but wine bags and rice bags. May I ask, what is so terrible about such a Feng family?"

One sentence pointed out the predicament of the entire Feng family. The past scenery of blooming flowers is gone, and only ordinary people are left.

"Feng Wu..." Elder Lin wanted to argue again.

"Enough! You don't need to say more, I, Feng Wu, will decide on the position of Patriarch. Anyone who dares to object, come and see me!" Feng Wu stood up and said, holding the serious-faced Long San in his arms. Wu is impatient, why bother to talk to this group of humans, just threaten them directly.

"..." Sure enough, the surroundings were quiet, and no one dared to object.

Feng Wu smiled satisfied: "Very well, hurry up and prepare for the sacrifice..."

"Well, although the altar is still there, the main hall was burned down, even if it wasn't so fast." Elder Le who was in charge of this aspect stood up and said falteringly.

"Then change the place, I don't care about it, as long as all the clansmen know that I am the head of the family." Feng Wu narrowed his eyes and said to them: "You better be honest, otherwise Feng Liuyun and Elder Lie will end up with you fate."

Everyone gasped, they heard Feng Wu admit with their own ears that he killed Feng Liuyun and Elder Lie.

The madman!Three lives at once!

A few timid elders were so frightened that their legs trembled and they dared not raise their heads.

Seeing Feng Wu's arrogant back leaving, Elder Lin closed his eyes in disappointment.In the past, the Feng clan was tough and powerful, everyone knew martial arts, and they were the fiercest warriors on the battlefield.The brilliance of the Feng family was bought with blood, so what is a dead person?Which Feng family has not had human blood on their hands?

Now look at the children of the Feng family, a group of mediocre people with no vigor at all.Even the elders are like this, their legs go limp when Feng Wu is frightened.

Elder Lin glanced at the pale-faced elders, and sighed in his heart: "Forget it, if he wants to be the head of the house, let him be the head of the house." The Feng clan has not seen such a cruel and merciless person like Feng Wu for a hundred years. , maybe this will be an opportunity?

"Then... let's prepare for the succession?" Elder Le asked.

"Well, let's go." Elder Lin sat back on the chair, his expression seemed to be a few years older, but his eyes were shining.

Soon, the news spread that the next Patriarch of the Feng Clan was Feng Wu, causing a whirlwind in the clan.The people who reacted the most were the family members of Elder Lie and the family members of the former Patriarch Feng Liuyun.

They used to be part of the clan's glory, but now they were reduced to outcasts overnight.This taste is undoubtedly tragic and hopeless.

Feng Liuyun's wife cried and her eyes were red, and she called her son to her side and hugged her tightly: "My son, you must remember that he is your father-killing enemy. When you achieve something in the future, you must kill him!"

"En!" The eight-year-old boy nodded seriously.

"Go, your master is waiting for you outside the door." After sending her child to her natal family, Feng Liuyun's wife held up the scissors with tears in her eyes and became a nun. She chanted scriptures and chanted for her dead husband. , often accompanied by green lights.

Everyone has their own choice. She chose such a tragic path, which cannot be said to be forced, nor can she be said to be asking for trouble.

It can only be said that everything in the world is caused by all dharmas.

"Let's leave Feng's house, I don't want to stay here anymore." Feng Shaoning was in a daze, as if she heard the news that Feng Wu would be the head of the family, she couldn't accept it: "Let's take my brother and leave here."

Father Feng hesitated and said, "Where are you going? After your grandfather's first seven days, your mother and I will go back to work in the company. Otherwise, how will we support you two?" The company belongs to the Feng family, not to individuals.

The two of them are senior managers, and their salaries and dividends are high, but once they leave the family, they don't have so much income.

"Don't you have any savings over the years?" Feng Shaoning frowned, she felt that her parents were so stupid that they didn't even think about the future.

"Where is there any savings? You and your brother spend a lot of money. Your father and I just need to support the two of you. Your grandma passed away the year before last, and you spent a lot of money. Your grandparents need to support them. Everyone A monthly remittance is required.”

"Why do grandpa and grandma need my family to support them? Don't the two uncles have any money?" Feng Shaoning's eyes widened. She never knew that her grandpa and grandma were also supported by her family.

"Your two uncles are more difficult, what's wrong with me helping out?" Feng Shaoning's mother just realized that her daughter is a little selfish?

"Didn't you say you don't have any money?" Feng Shaoning felt that her parents' words were contradictory, and she said annoyedly: "Forget it, I'll go to the hospital to see my brother, anyway, I can't communicate with you."

Facing their daughter's departure, the Feng couple peeped at each other, speechless.

They really regretted that they should not have given their two children to their grandparents in the first place.Maybe if I worked harder at the beginning, it would not cause today's tragedy!
