Chapter 238 Retirement

"Clan leader, someone from the Xie family is here."

Chen Xingzhen, who was checking the growth of the family's blood rice, had a trace of doubt in his eyes after hearing this, but he still turned around and walked towards the clan while asking about the situation.

After a while, Chen Xingzhen arrived outside the family and saw the clan members sent by the Xie family this time.

After confirming his identity, Chen Xingzhen's eyes were filled with doubts.

The Xie family has a flying bird to send messages, which is faster, so there is no need to send people over in person and waste manpower.

"To be honest with Patriarch Chen, the clan sister asked me to come here this time because she actually has something important to discuss with Patriarch Chen."

Seemingly seeing Chen Xingzhen's doubts, the visitor smiled and said.

Chen Xingzhen also smiled and replied:

"I don't know what the important matter is. Please tell me."

"There are a lot of people in the clan, but there is a lack of training resources. I think the nobles still have some blood rice left, so the family wants to exchange for some blood rice. I wonder if Patriarch Chen is willing?"

After hearing what the visitor meant, Chen Xingzhen did not answer in a hurry.

The family does still have some blood rice left, but it is used to supply the daily body tempering of the clan members. It is also very important to the family, so naturally it cannot be exchanged at will.

However, the Xie family has sent letters to the family twice, which can be regarded as a favor owed by the family. Now that the Xie family needs blood rice, it is not a big problem for the family to exchange some.

Seeing Chen Xingzhen's hesitation, the Xie family members immediately said:

"Clan Chief Chen, don't worry. The family will also use cultivation resources in exchange for the blood rice exchanged, so the nobles will not suffer any loss."

"The nobles are too polite. Since the nobles are in need, the family can also spare some blood rice, but the quantity may not be as much as last time."

After the family's discussion, the Xie family members took away five hundred kilograms of blood rice and left behind other resources of equal value.

After the Xie family left, Chen Tianjing frowned and said:

"Clan leader, the Xie family didn't inform the Xie family about the last visit from the Liu family. Could it be that the Xie family was also involved?"

Chen Xingzhen shook his head:

"It's unlikely. If the Xie family also wanted to take action against the family, then there wouldn't be only one person who came here in the past few days. According to the information Tianlei and the others found in Yong'an City, there have been a lot of conflicts between the Xie family and the other three major families recently. Even if I think about it, I won’t take action against the family at this moment.”

"It's just that these big families also have their own ideas. The family can cooperate with them in the short term, but it is not a long-term solution. After all, the family itself still needs to be strong."

"As for these blood rice, just think of it as repaying the favor from last time."

Chen Tiankang nodded and said no more.

"By the way, how is the situation in the ancestral hall?"

"Those green fruits will probably be ripe tomorrow."

"Okay, I get it."

…

The next day, in the ancestral hall, many tribesmen came over after learning the news, and looked at the fruits that had transformed into gray under the branches and leaves of the sacred tree above.

On the fruit, the appearances of several tribesmen in life are clearly depicted.

However, the tribesmen who had seen it twice were not as surprised as the first time. They could only sigh at the magic of the family sacred tree.

In the eyes of everyone looking up, several ripe gray fruits were teetering on the verge of falling, and then fell towards the ground.

But before these green fruits could completely fall to the ground, they had disappeared in mid-air.

And among the invisible eyes of everyone, there was another lively situation.

"Welcome welcome."

"Congratulations to these guys for regaining their lives!"

"Uncle Xingyi Clan, I have been waiting for you for a long time, and you are finally here to accompany me."

A tribesman said happily, but after saying that, he felt that something was wrong.

However, the newly resurrected tribesmen were not depressed, but looked excited and happy.

"This is Tianhen's nephew. I remember that you were in the early stage of the body quenching state when you passed away. I didn't expect that you would reach the late stage of the body quenching state so soon."

"Thanks to my uncle's concern, my nephew has worked hard recently."

"Brother Xingba clan, long time no see. Have you been well lately?"

"Clan leader, I finally see you, woo woo woo."

"Third Aunt, you seem to have become beautiful again!"

"Oh, where is it?"

…

Chen Changming looked at the resurrected tribesmen with joyful expressions on their faces, and the warm communication among the crowd. He did not feel uncomfortable at all, and could not help but have a slightly strange look on his face.

He brought these tribesmen here with the intention of comforting several tribesmen. After all, from birth to death, this process is still difficult for many people to accept, and their mentality cannot be changed for a while.

But seeing the conditions of the tribesmen in front of them, it seems that they have been waiting for a long time? Already have admiration?

Looking at Chen Xingzhen and other clan members below, there was worry on their faces.

One life and one death, one joy and one sorrow.

It is really difficult to tell who the deceased clan member is.

On the side, a golden locust leaf among the leaves of the locust tree flickered with light. As the golden locust leaf flickered, Chen Xingzhen's body trembled slightly with a look of worry below.

In his sight, he saw his father and other clansmen who had died, as well as several clansmen who had died in the battle a few days ago. At this moment, they were floating in the air, chatting enthusiastically.

Seeing several tribesmen successfully blending in, the worry on Chen Xingzhen's face gradually dissipated.

"Cough cough cough."

Chen Changming interrupted several tribesmen who were having a lively conversation in high spirits and said:

"Xingzhen asked me to ask you, how should your bodies be disposed of? Should they be buried in the cemetery built by the family, or should they be sacrificed..."

Before Chen Changming finished speaking, several people spoke loudly:

"Sacrifice, must sacrifice!"

"That's right, it's not easy to die, the body must be sacrificed, it's best to take it out from time to time, don't let it get moldy!"

"That's right, that's right, we have already discussed that we can make some contributions to the family after death..."

"Ahem, we are also very happy!"

"Yes, yes, yes."

After hearing this, Chen Changming's face became even weirder. These people clearly saw that their life span was not long, so they came here to retire, right?

If we don't think of a way to stop this, the family may not die as fast as the living, so how can the family develop like this!

Below, Chen Xingzhen looked at the scene above and the remarks of several people, and his thoughts could not help but disperse.

Except for the three body-tempering realm warriors, the others had arranged their funerals before the battle, and judging from the injuries of several people, it seemed that there were no external injuries. So, several people committed suicide.

No wonder several people were so excited, it turned out that they had planned for a long time.

In this regard, Chen Xingzhen also looked helpless.

If you think about it carefully, several people are of the same generation as him and older than him, but they have just reached the blood coagulation stage, and their life span is indeed not long, so it is not difficult to understand that they would seek death.

If they die at this time, their bodies are still warm, and they can be used as family guardians, and they can also play some spare power for the family.

It seems that it has been planned for a long time, but in fact, it is not without consideration for the family.

It’s just that the impact of this incident on the family is not good, and he still needs to find a way to stop it, so as to prevent the young members of the family from going astray.

When Chen Xingzhen finished thinking, the scene in front of him had disappeared.
