Feng'er stared blankly at Xiong Lin in front of her, her expression slightly unnaturally tense.
"What on earth did you do behind my back?"
With his backhand, Xiong Lin grabbed Feng'er's arm and asked sternly in a low voice.
"I, I didn't do anything. Cousin, please let me go, you hurt me."
Feng'er wanted to break away from Xiong Lin's hand, but under his aggressive eyes, she kept glancing at him.
Xiong Lin's heart gradually sank to the bottom. .??.
He suddenly let go of his hand, and there was a slight chill in his eyes.
"I have sworn that I will never let go of anyone who makes her sad. You'd better pray that she is safe, otherwise, I will ask you to pay a hundred times the price to repay."
Rubbing her arms, Feng'er looked at Xiong Lin unwillingly.
She hates it so much! They were obviously childhood sweethearts, but why did this man only have deep feelings for that woman?
Xiong Lin didn't even look at her, and walked past her into the crowd.
Jealousy is like boiling water, causing Feng'er to lose all her sanity.
"She's just a slut who can do anything she wants! I'm no better than her. You are the only one who only likes such shameless women!"
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Feng'er began to regret it.
Because Xiong Lin's eyes became very scary at this moment.
She involuntarily took a step back, because she seemed to feel that if she took another step closer, she would be sucked into the abyss and shattered to pieces.
Fear made her involuntarily choose to shut up.
"Are you worthy of judging her quality?"
Xiong Lin said coldly. Now he was not only disappointed, but also extremely bored.
Apart from him, who else has ever truly understood Hong Yu, and who knows that she is the kindest girl.
In the eyes of these people, his ruby is nothing more than an obstacle that prevents them from manipulating themselves.
Therefore, he does not need to explain, and there is no need to explain at all.
He turned around and continued walking towards the crowd.
Feng'er was left alone behind him, shivering.
She was right, Xiong Lin was indeed murderous towards her!
How could it become like this? It's all that woman's fault, that woman named Hongyu!
Her eyes reflected a vicious light, and Feng'er secretly squeezed her hand.
She would never give up her position as the patriarch's wife to anyone else.
Since Xiong Lin doesn't want her, then she should find someone else as the clan leader. Anyway, there are many people eyeing this position!
The crowd was somewhat silent, at least after seeing Xiong Lin, no one came forward to greet him. r> Some people even looked at him with hatred.
Xiong Lin originally thought that he would be heartbroken, but what he didn't expect was that he just felt a little surprised.
These people were so stupid, and why did he think that he could dedicate his life to them in the first place?
Ridiculous, it turns out that the most ridiculous person is himself.
"Xiong Lin, you have disappointed us so much! Aqiang died in the hands of that woman. You are greedy for life and afraid of death, and you are unjust and unjust, but we are not afraid!"
Among the crowd, a man as strong as him jumped out.
Xiong Lin knew him well, Xiong Xiliang, a man of the same generation as him, but only got a place in the tribe because his sister became a tribute.
He watched the man's mouth open and close coldly, but felt that Xiong Xiliang was terribly ridiculous.
He still remembered Xiong Xiliang's sister, she was a cute and soft girl who used to be one of his playmates.
On the day he was sent away, he still remembered the proud smile on Xiong Xiliang's face, but he forced himself to selectively forget the tears on the girl's face.
Perhaps, compared to the Xin family, they are the real devils.
One sent his biological sister into the mouth of the devil and used her flesh and blood as the nourishment for his own survival.
He suddenly understood the meaning behind his father's helpless but somewhat relieved smile before his death.
They are also accomplices!
"You can go now. I won't stop any of you from wanting to go. But from now on, life or death has nothing to do with anyone."
Xiong Lin said expressionlessly, "Oh, he saw the indignation on everyone's faces, and a little more hesitation."
Soon, Xiong Xiliang raised his voice again and said.
"You are the clan leader! You must seek justice for us in this matter, otherwise, you will not be the clan leader!"
Isn't it a little early to tell you your purpose now?
Xiong Lin looked at him. Gradually, the man's face became blurred, and there were only four words left - his face was abominable.
"Because I am the so-called patriarch, I will die for you. Is this what you mean?"
Xiong Lin said coldly, even the disappointment disappeared in his tone.
"You! For the life and death of the tribe, isn't this what the clan leader should do? Well, if you are greedy for life and afraid of death, we won't force you."
Xiong Xiliang felt that he was already victorious, and in his eyes, there was a look of triumph that Xiong Lin was familiar with.
It's a pity that she is not this guy's sister.
If you want to use his flesh and blood to step on your feet, Xiong Xiliang is not worthy!
"You are the clan leader now, so you go ahead."
Raising his brows slightly, Xiong Lin crossed his shoulders and looked at the guy in front of him provocatively.
"You - you Xiong Lin, you actually gave up your face for a woman! In this case, I, Xiong Xiliang, will take over the position of clan leader. From today on, everything in the tribe belongs to me.
Come and take care of it. Hand over all the things belonging to the clan leader!"
Xiong Xiliang was so overjoyed that he was so shameless that he actually proclaimed himself the clan leader.
But he didn't see the contempt in the eyes of the villagers behind him.
That guy is just a scoundrel, how can he really convince the public?
Xiong Lin snorted coldly, and casually pulled out the curve that he never left.
With a 'swish' sound, the sharp blade was unsheathed. Xiong Xiliang flinched and stared at Xiong Lin in front of him warily.
"What do you want to do? I tell you, you can't kill me! Killing one's own kind is a grave sin. Aren't you afraid of the elders judging you?"
Because of fear, his voice was like a duck that has been strangled by its throat, thin and urgent.
Xiong Lin just sneered and walked past him to the big stone next to him.
"I, Xiong Lin, the thirty-seventh clan leader of the Xiong Ling Tribe, hereby make an oath. Whoever among the tribes, old or young, can pull out the sword in my hand can become the next clan leader."
He looked around and found that many people were already starting to make a move.
What a selfish and ridiculous group of people.
He said no more, and waved the sharp knife in his hand.
With a 'click' sound, the sharp tip pierced into the stone hard.
The sharp knife had been sunk into the hard stone, leaving only the handle still outside.
Everyone gasped, because they knew better than anyone how strong the stone was.
Ordinary iron tools, even if they were stabbed hard into the stone, would only leave a shallow scratch at most.
Unexpectedly, he could actually insert the knife into it!
"From now on, anything that happens to the Bear Spirit Tribe has nothing to do with me. Whatever you want, let's do it over there."
He took back his hand, and drops of bright red blood slowly slid down his fingers, and then fell into the soil, leaving a dark mark.
Xiong Lin took a deep breath and turned to leave.
"Stop! Xiong Lin, are you worth it for a woman?"
The voice coming from behind was very familiar to him.
That He was the one he once regarded as a brother, and they once regarded him as his brother.
"So, this is the reason why you betrayed me?"
He didn't even turn his head, his tone was indifferent and distant.
"I -" The man lowered his head, but after a moment, he raised it again, his eyes already firm.
"I'm doing it for your own good. Hong Yu is indeed not suitable to be the mistress of Spirit Bear. I don't want you to bear the stigma for the rest of your life. After all, she was once a fireworks woman."
"What right do you have to decide my life's happiness for me? Hongyu is not good, so why didn't you say it before? So, you think it's good just because you don't know the other person's nature and believe everything she pretends to be. More
It is useless to say that betrayal is betrayal and there will never be any reason."
Xiong Lin took another step, and little by little, he left all his relatives and friends.
He felt very tired, physically and mentally exhausted.
Everything in his heart began to collapse, and now he only felt that his heart was empty, just like the mountain ghost that his mother told him about when he was a child, wandering in the mountains.
It rises with the wind and disappears with the wind.
There is no trace left in the world.
He walked one step at a time, not knowing where he was going or whether he was alive or dead.
Everything for more than thirty years is now in vain, so where should he go?
Behind me, I don't know when there was a sound of footsteps.
Subtle, as if for fear of attracting his attention, but persevering, no matter where he went or how fast he walked, the sound of footsteps never stopped.
My heart was like ashes, and gradually there was a hint of curiosity.
Who is it? A human or that mountain ghost?
He finally stopped in his footsteps, but the footsteps behind him did not stop with him.
Then, he saw a thin figure standing in front of him.
The tear stains on the pale face have never disappeared.
He stretched out his hand involuntarily, but his heart was silently saying, don't cry!
"Xiong Lin, look at me, look at me, I am Hongyu, Xiong Lin!"
The woman's cry reached his ears.
Even though they were so close, he felt as if her voice was coming from the horizon.
In her ears, an invisible wall gradually cracked due to her crying, showing tiny cracks, and then collapsed like a torrent.
"Hongyu, don't cry."
He finally remembered that the woman in front of him was his beloved!
