Chapter 862 Grandfather's Last Words
Ye Tian's obeisance made all the pressure of the aura created by the old man disappear.
When Ye Tian raised his head, he realized that the old man was lying on the reclining chair with his head up, tears streaming down his face, his lips were wriggling, and he was muttering something.
"Old patriarch?"
Ye Tian had no choice but to shout.
The old man just wiped away the tears from his eyes, and looked at Ye Tian with a completely different gaze from before.
If the old man looked at Ye Tian with respect in the past, but now, it has become a natural closeness and respect.
Ye Tian would not know that his words deeply touched the old man's heart.
For the sake of the last words of the ancestors, guarding this desolate place, living like a primitive savage for thousands of years, can you not have the slightest resentment? Impossible, even if this old man is the patriarch of the Grotto Clan, one of the five major clans here, he still has injustice deep in his heart.
He dared not disobey the last words of his ancestors, and he would not let go of his belief in suppressing monsters. If not, he would not lose his legs in the battle with monsters.
It's just that all of this needs a recognition, not the recognition of the five major tribes, but the recognition from outside monks, which proves that everything these people have done here for thousands of years is extremely meaningful.
Ye Tian's status as an immortal, and his willingness to worship like this, also filled the little bit of injustice deep in the old patriarch's heart!
The completeness of the state of mind made the old patriarch's complexion rosy, and the dry and wrinkled skin surface became smoother at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just a few minutes, the old patriarch seemed to be ten years younger. Except for the legs that couldn't be born out of thin air, he still didn't have the slightest look of the old man when he first met him.
"Shangxian, please wait a moment. Shi Ming has already gone out to issue my order. Later, he will gather the monks in my clan and go to the other ministries with the head of the fairy to inform everyone about the arrival of the head of the fairy." Not only the appearance, this The voice of the old patriarch seemed to have become much younger.
"Old patriarch, I heard from Shi Ming that legends about the fairy head are widely circulated among various tribes. Even if the Grotto clan has recognized my identity, how can other tribes recognize me like the old patriarch when they see me?" identity? Furthermore, how should I lead the various tribes to resist the coming tide of monsters and beasts."
Ye Tian is not in a hurry, in fact, he still has a lot of things he wants to know. Shi Ming couldn't answer his questions about these things, but for this old patriarch, he might be able to explain a thing or two to Ye Tian.
"As long as the five major tribes can recognize the head of the fairy, and the whole family migrates, with the strength of our five clans, and guarding one side together, we can summon the ancestors to help us resist the tide of monsters and beasts. There is no need for the head of the fairy to be hesitant. Luo recognizes the immortal head and is willing to migrate with his family. Even I don't know how to do it. In the past hundred years, my Grotto Clan has only come and gone with the Jinwu Clan. As for the situation of other clans, I don't know anything. But I I believe that as long as the fairy elder shows up, there will be a solution." The old patriarch is full of confidence in Ye Tian.
"Then how did the three elders do it?" Ye Tian could only ask again.
"It's too long ago. Even if the third immortal elder came, hundreds of years have passed since now. Except for some legends praising that immortal elder, there are no other words handed down in the clan. Besides, every immortal elder Chang's temperament is not the same, and his behavior style is also very different. It depends on the situation at the time and the place. There is no unified charter. Immortal Chang doesn't have to worry about these things. He just does what he should do. I, the Grotto Clan, will naturally support it. "The old patriarch shook his head, unable to answer Ye Tian.
Ye Tian smiled wryly. He didn't expect that the "immortal elders" who helped the descendants of the human race in this place before left no details of what they did except their own legends. It seems that not only is there a lag in news between the various tribes, but even within the same tribe, there is no such thing as historical records handed down.
Forget it, as the old patriarch said, different monks have different temperaments and styles of doing things. If Ye Tian really wants to learn from the sages, he might feel reserved. No matter from the conversation with the old patriarch or the previous conversation with Shi Ming and others, it seemed that he didn't care about the massive invasion of monster beasts. The real difficulty was to gain the approval of all tribes and lead all tribes to work together.
"However, the immortal leader still needs to pay attention to one thing, and be on guard." At this time, the old patriarch spoke again, reminding Ye Tiandao: "The last hundred years are different from the past, and the three sealed demon kings seem to have changed. The monsters invaded our tribes, and ordered to send enough monsters to tempt the monks of all tribes, lead them to abandon the beliefs of the tribe, and willingly become traitors of the human race. This time the sacrificial event is exactly like this, the young children of all tribes , disappeared inexplicably without being attacked by monsters. Fortunately, we discovered the anomaly in time and found the traitor. Only then did we know about the sacrifice. Here comes the immortal descending."
During the reminder, the old patriarch still had a look of lingering fear. It could be seen that the matter was resolved perfectly, and it was by no means as easy as explained in a few words.
"Human traitors, apart from being able to absorb aura, cast magical powers, and become weak physically, is there anything special about them?" Ye Tian nodded. He already knew a little about human traitors from Shi Ming. , but hearing the meaning of the old patriarch's words, it seems that there is something Ye Tian doesn't know.
"In the past, if the immortals appeared in the past, it would not be difficult for all tribes to trust the immortal elders, but the matter of human traitors is not unique to my Grotto family. I am afraid that in other tribes, the immortal elders will be attacked by those human traitors." Therefore, please don't take it lightly, the best policy is to be careful and prevent it." The old patriarch continued.
"Thank you, old patriarch, I will be careful." Ye Tian nodded and thanked again.
Outside the house, there was a sound of movement and movement, and Shi Ming also re-entered at this time.
"Patriarch, Shangxian, I have informed the patriarch and cultivator that everyone has gathered outside the door, and they can go to the other ministries together with Shangxian at any time." Shi Ming straightened his back, his voice was loud, and he couldn't hide his excitement.
What an honor it is to go to other tribes with Shangxian. Shi Ming couldn't help but be unhappy. He was also the first to recognize Ye Tian's identity and bring him back. Due to emotion and reason, he will have a share of this honor .
As for the monks who gathered outside the patriarch's house, Shi Ming's thoughts were quite different, and he also hoped that the patriarch would allow them to accompany them and share this honor. The whole family did not have the slightest fear of the imminent wave of monsters and beasts, but was filled with a kind of excitement full of fighting spirit.
"Shi Ming, Shi Luo, Shi Lang, Shi Xuan, Shi Zhao, Shi Ying, Shi Ang..." The old patriarch read out the names of ten people in one breath, and immediately, after a short pause, he said: "These monks, with the fairy Follow me for a long time."
Although the old patriarch's voice was not loud, the monks outside could hear him clearly.
Every time a name was read, there was a cheer, and when the old patriarch finished reading all the names, there were waves of regrets outside the door, full of the regret and annoyance of the losers.
"I would like to ask for your forgiveness. The immortal chief will travel to various tribes, and the time may not be too short. Our clan still needs monks to guard their homes and hunt monsters, so we cannot separate too many monks and immortal chiefs to accompany us. But still Please rest assured, the ten people I pointed out are all good at knowing the way, and there are also people who have contacted the Golden Crow Clan before. Let's go together and lead the way to the rest of the tribe for the elder." The old patriarch ignored the annoyed voices outside, looked at Ye Tian and said again.
"The old patriarch is worrying too much. In my opinion, the number of ten people is too much." Ye Tian thought for a moment, but shook his head at the old patriarch.
"There are more than ten people? Don't you think that you can use supernatural powers to fly in the air? It may be fine to control the sky in our clan, but outside, once you fly in the sky, it will definitely attract the attention of monsters and beasts around you. Then you will be exposed." It is a trivial matter for me to attract countless monsters to attack for nothing, but if I alarm the three big monster kings who sealed this place in advance and let them know the existence of the fairy elder, it will be a big crisis!" The old patriarch frowned, He also reminded Ye Tian not to underestimate the enemy and be careless, he would forget everything in a blink of an eye.
"When I first came here, I have already observed the surrounding area. There are mostly towering trees here, but there are mountains of ice and snow in the distance. The more people there are, the more people need to be distracted and take care of them. It is easy to delay the time. The old patriarch Knowing that one or two people who are familiar with the route and one or two monks who are familiar with the Jinwu tribe will be arranged for me, it is enough to deal with all situations."
Ye Tian really never thought about flying in the air. There are many prisons and monsters in this place. Except for the towering trees, you can see the sky above. Let anyone shoot. Moreover, as Ye Tian said, his cultivation strength, even if he does not count magical powers, is stronger than most monks in the Grotto Clan.
The faction of the Grotto Clan walking with him is more to guide the way and fingerprints, not to protect his safety. In such a situation, there is no need for as many as ten people.
"I understand, then let only Shi Luo and Shi Xuan go with the immortal leader." The old patriarch stared at Ye Tian for a few seconds, and instead of insisting on his own opinion, he immediately changed his mind.
"Patriarch!"
Before Ye Tian could speak, Shi Ming who was standing at the door shouted first!
He was still excited to be able to walk with Ye Tian before, but the old patriarch erased his participation qualification after Ye Tian said a few words, how could Shi Ming bear such a gap.
"Nonsense, what do you think this is?" The old patriarch was unmoved, and angrily reprimanded Shi Ming.
Shi Ming shivered, but he still didn't give up. He secretly turned his head and looked at Ye Tian eagerly, showing a pleading look.
"After all, I am familiar with Shi Ming, let him be added." Ye Tian shook his head helplessly, looked at the old patriarch and said something for Shi Ming.
"Since the fairy head spoke, then add Shi Ming. But if he dares to mess around again on the way, please ask the fairy head to drive him back directly, and don't make mistakes because of him."
At this point, the old patriarch changed his mind, and after he finished speaking, he did not forget to give Shi Ming a hard look as a warning.
