Chapter 44: Strength Is the Foundation
"Ah, the Barbarians want to annex our Ge family?" Ge Guang exclaimed. M
The elder Ge family sighed: "Oh, your sister is dead, and they are not willing to listen to my father's explanation at all. Why? They just want to use this excuse as a legitimate reason to go to war! But my father brought Chang Shanyin to help. Chang Shanyin He is a hero from Beiyuan, with extremely high prestige, and he has the Chang family behind him. He dares not force his words even though he wants to, so he regretfully stopped tonight."
Ge Guang was surprised: "So there are such twists and turns behind this? But Dad, my son can't figure it out. Since you have already seen the intentions of the Man family, why did you agree to this marriage and betroth your sister to that monkey Man? How much?"
The old patriarch of the Ge family raised his finger and knocked Ge Guang's forehead hard: "Don't you have any brains here? Why did you agree to the marriage? Do you think a father wants to wrong his daughter?! It's not because of the approaching storm. If you can By marrying the Man family, we can stay in Hongyan Valley and protect our tribe as much as possible! Sacrificing your sister's happiness alone can save the entire Ge family. This marriage is just a deal. Alas, it's a pity for you My sister escaped from marriage and died in the rotten grassland!"
Ge Guang frowned and blinked fiercely: "Abba, I understand a little bit."
"No, you don't understand yet." The old patriarch of the Ge family knew his son very well, and continued to explain, "Tonight, the Man family father and son, on the surface, invited Chang Shanyin, and we will accompany them. In fact, the real purpose is It's to deal with us, father and son. As a father, he pushed out Chang Shanyin as a shield."
"That Manduo took out the Smoke Chasing Gu, and his intentions are extremely sinister! When you all doubted Chang Shanyin, my father swore to Chang Shanyin that he believed in him. Do you really think that my father has no doubts? My father is not that old and confused. Woolen cloth!"
The old patriarch of the Ge family stamped his feet and said in a desolate tone: "But as a father, I don't dare to doubt him. Our father and son can fight against the Man family with the help of Chang Shanyin's power. If you doubt him, then the Man family father and son will succeed in instigating a gap between us. The relationship with Chang Shanyin. If Chang Shanyin doesn’t stand on our side, maybe our father and son won’t be able to come back from tonight’s banquet.”
Ge Guang's face was full of surprise: "Ah, are they barbarians so bold that they want to kill our father and son?"
"Hmph, why do you think you encountered so many wind wolves when you went out to search this time? In the North Plains, there are still few ways to use the beasts to borrow knives to kill people? But in this situation tonight, the barbarians will not kill us. As for it, it will definitely be under house arrest. At that time, their barbarian family will use Ge Yao's incident as a legitimate excuse to annex our Ge family, and the Ge family will lose us. They are leaderless again, and the ending is worrying. "
After hearing his father's explanation, Ge Guang finally understood the danger of tonight, with a look of fear on his face.
"For the sake of the tribe and the overall situation, even if Chang Shanyin is really the murderer, we cannot doubt him! Do you really think that I have forgotten the clues about Gu? How is it possible! But you have to mention this.
What if it is really confirmed that Chang Shanyin is the murderer? "The old patriarch of the Ge family spoke earnestly and thoughtfully.
Ge Guang fell into silence and said after a long time: "That's why Abba gave the precious fifth-level clues Gu to Chang Shanyin. It was to make up for the gap in our relationship with him and make him stand on our side, right?"
The old patriarch of the Ge family nodded: "You finally have some understanding. Son, although you have excellent qualifications and high cultivation, you are still far from becoming the new patriarch of the Ge family."
"Abba, it's great to have you here. My son will definitely learn a lot from you in the future. No one in the Ge family can do without you. But I can't do without you." Ge Guang said sincerely.
The old patriarch of the Ge family shook his head slightly: "Time is not forgiving. Dad, I am already old. From now on, the Ge family will still have to rely on you. Alas... After this incident, I can finally understand Mantu. He is greedy. The jackal, no amount of wealth can fill his heart."
"Now that your sister has gone, we have lost the name of using the Red Flame Valley. We can't break up the family and all go to the Barbarian family, right? No, the Ge family must not be wiped out like this, otherwise I will be the eternal sinner of the Ge family! After this night, my father has thought clearly that he cannot stay here, sooner or later he will be murdered by the barbarians. A few days later, we will set off and rush to the Heroes Conference."
"Abba, if we leave like this, will the Man family let us go easily?" Ge Guang asked worriedly.
"Of course they don't want to let us go, but we are going with Chang Shanyin. Mantu is afraid of Chang Shanyin and dare not take action." The old patriarch of the Ge family laughed.
"Then if we are using Senior Chang Shanyin like this..." Ge Guang felt a little embarrassed.
"You fool! Why don't you use it? What's wrong with using it? Good hunters are good at making use of everything around them. When our strength is insufficient, we must use wisdom to make up for it. All this is for the survival of the family!"
After reprimanding the old patriarch of the Ge family, he paused, with a complicated look on his face: "But this Chang Shanyin is indeed a hero worthy of his reputation... Maybe he has seen it, but he has always been on our side. So. Being upright and righteous, supporting the weak, this is the true model of righteousness and the bright light in the world. Son, be happy that our Ge family has met such a person!"
…
Time flies and several days pass by.
In the room, Fang Yuan looked at the Bone Bamboo Gu in his hand, which was burned by the will-o'-the-wisp, and exhaled a filthy breath: "This is the last Bone Bamboo Gu."
Over the past few days, he has been practicing diligently and used up all the hundreds of bone bamboo Gu in the gift box.
After his vigorous repairs, the eight most serious wounds on the war bone wheel were all successfully repaired. Although the battle bone wheel is still full of scars, it is finally out of danger.
After sending the war bone wheel back to the aperture, Fang Yuan began to inspect his own aperture.
He is at the peak of rank four.
Therefore, the four walls of the hollow are made of transparent crystal films. The sea of true essence is as high as 90%, which is all real gold and true essence.
However, not long after Fang Yuan first arrived in Beiyuan, without fully adapting, the real gold real essence was only equivalent to the elementary light gold real essence.
Therefore, Fang Yuan's current cultivation level has temporarily stagnated. Of course, using light gold true energy, one cannot break through the barrier and become a rank five Gu Master.
"There is no way to speed up the adaptation. The most commonly used one is to use the third watch Gu to speed up one's own time. But in this way, the Gu master's remaining lifespan will be shortened by three times."
This move was a quick move, and Fang Yuan would certainly not take it.
Originally it was not because he cherished his life span, but because of Spring and Autumn Cicada.
If Fang Yuan uses the third watch Gu on himself, the flow of time on his body will be accelerated three times. Then, the recovery speed of the Spring Autumn Cicada that lives on his body will be tripled.
In addition to the natal Gu Spring Autumn Cicada and the Fixed Immortal Traveling Gu hidden in the rotten grassland, Fang Yuan now has many Gu insects on his body.
Bear the brunt. The two rank five Gu came from Beiyuan itself.
One is the War Bone Wheel, which is currently being repaired and cannot provide any help in the short term.
The other one is the clues Gu, which can be used for reconnaissance and tracking.
"The Ge family still has some background. There is actually a level 5 clue Gu. This Gu can be used to track Gu insects. It is a powerful means to capture wild Gu insects and prevent them from escaping. Unfortunately, although the old patriarch of the Ge family has this Gu insect, I don’t dare to go out and look for my biological daughter.”
Fang Yuan has a clear understanding of the fight between the Ge family and the Man family.
There are many third sons in the Man family, and they are very ambitious. Want to get involved in the position of clan leader. However, due to his own lack of cultivation, he fell in love with the Ge family. By marrying Ge Yao, he wants to make the Ge family his wife's clan and help him compete for the position of clan leader.
Mantu may not necessarily see Manduo’s true intentions. But he has always been interested in annexing the Ge family.
The Ge family wanted to take advantage of the marriage, sacrifice Ge Yao, and rely on the Barbarian family's Hongyan Valley to survive the snowstorm that occurs once every ten years. Get through the difficulties ahead.
Of course the Ge family didn't want to break up the entire tribe, but the Man family wanted to completely annex this big piece of fat. But I am afraid that the bones in the meat will get stuck in my throat.
After Ge Yao escaped. The barbarians tried their best to cling to this legitimate excuse. It is even possible to secretly take action against Ge Guang.
As long as the eldest father and son of the Ge family are killed, the Ge family will be leaderless and fall into civil strife, making it easier for the barbarian family to annex them.
Ge Guang was ignorant, but the old patriarch of the Ge family had become mature in years. He gradually saw the situation clearly and found that he could not satisfy Man Tu's greed, but he was stuck in the mud, so he had to endure it and sit in the tribe all day long. Don't give the Barbarians a chance to make a secret move.
The arrival of Chang Shanyin gave the Ge family hope of getting out of trouble.
The old patriarch of the Ge family might have thought of using it when he learned about Fang Yuan's identity as "Chang Shan Yin". Therefore, he entertained Fang Yuan warmly and even gave him a generous gift of one million upon meeting him.
Later, he also made good use of it, using the power of Chang Shanyin to compete with the barbarians.
That dinner party under the moonlit night seemed to be a happy one, but in fact, the competition between the three parties was full of undercurrents and dangers.
turn out--
The barbarian side's offensive was frustrated. Not only did they not target each family, but they also lost the legitimate excuse of Ge Yao. But this side did not fail, they are still the most powerful.
The Ge family pushed out Chang Shanyin and used his power to successfully defend their tribe and temporarily survive the crisis. They succeeded, but they were still in a weak position.
Fang Yuan, on the other hand, pretended to be confused and took advantage of the fight between the two parties to achieve his original purpose of appearing on the stage, and at the same time, he benefited from it and strengthened himself.
Humans are the spirit of all things, and the battles between humans are not all simple and brutal fights. Even in Beiyuan, where the folk customs are fierce, there is still a battle of wits and calculations.
As for Ge Yao...
This innocent girl is just a victim of the political struggle between two major families.
Even according to Fang Yuan's secret guess, Ge Yao's escape from marriage was quite strange. Being able to escape from the Ge family camp, which was tight on the outside and tight on the inside, was probably because the old patriarch of the Ge family secretly arranged to test the barbarian family. Unfortunately, accidents will always happen in reality, and even good plans cannot keep up with the changes. Perhaps it was the influence of the eldest son and second son of the head of the Man family who feared that Man Duo would become powerful and wanted Ge Yao to die. In short, Ge Yao escaped to the Fudu Grassland, met Fang Yuan, and then a series of things happened.
Shaking his head, Fang Yuan dismissed these speculations in his mind: "The basis of any strategy is strength. Why the Barbarian family didn't directly annex the Ge family is because they are not a super family, but a large tribe with limited power. Why did the Ge family turn the corner? In addition to using me, they were also once a large family and had a solid foundation. If the old patriarch of the Ge family had level five cultivation, he would have taken out the clues Gu long ago."
"No matter which world it is, strength is the foundation. As a result, a shrewd old patriarch like the Ge family may have to prepare to move his tribe. In the crisis of ten years of wind and snow, he still has to rely on the royal court to avoid disaster!" 8
