Erdan was shocked when he saw three teenagers kneeling on one knee and holding plates above their heads.
"Erdan, are you sure you want to accept this ceremony? Once you accept it, you will be the new head of Wangjiazhai from now on."
Erdan glanced at Hong Susu and was shocked. She was right, and he had not yet agreed to Wang Jiawang. Holding such a ceremony seemed to be a bit of a moral kidnapping.
When Wang Jiawang saw Erdan not moving, he couldn't help but laughed and came over. He put a jade plaque he wore around his waist into his hand and said, "Brother Erdan, I know what you are thinking? Don't you think so?"
We are worried that the reason for holding such a strong ceremony is because our ancestors have been waiting for such a destined person to appear for generations. Unexpectedly, we have to wait. According to the regulations of our ancestors, you can choose to settle in our Wangjiazhai, or you can
You are free not to settle in our Wangjiazhai, but if we choose you, then you will be responsible for leading our Wangjiazhai out of poverty and becoming rich, and on the road to success."
Seeing Wang Jiawang hand the jade plaque into his hand, Erdan glanced at Tian Min and saw that she couldn't help but nodded excitedly towards him.
Erdan thought for a while and gritted his teeth. He understood the importance of this village leader. If he became the village leader of Wangjiazhai from now on, he would be the overlord of the area. People like He Rongguang would all step aside. At least He Xiaoqin and others could be sidelined.
People settle here to avoid any safety hazards that often occur.
What's more important is that if he is crowned the new leader of the Wang family, he will return to his hometown in glory and splendor. Will the people in the village still look down on him?
Erdan took a long breath, thinking about his responsibilities, the livelihood of so many people, and the nobles and enemies he had met these days. He knew that as long as he slowly became stronger, everything would feel safe.
"I sincerely ask the leader of Xinzhai to lead us to break through the sky and embark on the road to prosperity."
The people below again put their right hands on their left chests, chanted in unison, and beat drums. Several young women in ethnic minority costumes came to Erdan, holding porcelain bowls high in their hands. The woman at the front held
Holding a jar of wine, she was looking at him with a smile.
"Okay, thanks to the kindness of the village master, I will do my part, thank you all."
As Erdan stood there, several young ladies came over, took off the dragon windbreaker from the boy's plate, put it on Erdan's body, put the jade ring on his finger, and put the sword on his waist.
He slowly guided him towards the dragon throne at the top.
Hong Susu and Tian Min had excited expressions on their faces. Like the villagers in Wangjiazhai, they put their hands in front of their left breasts and worshiped Erdan.
At the end of the brief handover ceremony, Erdan was led to the center of the bonfire party. He stood there, and the entire village of 2,000 people, holding handfuls of ashes in their hands, slowly circled Erdan twice.
Dance and sing at the same time.
After the dance circle ends, everyone sprays the ashes in their hands onto Erdan. This is called the baptism of the soul.
It means forgetting all the unhappiness from now on, starting from scratch, and leading the folks in Wangjiazhai to live the happiest life.
After the baptism, Erdan was taken to another venue for the bonfire party, where cattle and sheep were slaughtered, including roasted whole lambs, steaks, and more. A unique and big party was held just for Erdan, the new owner of the village.
Just as everyone was happily cheering to celebrate the new owner of the village, a man stumbled over, holding a bottle of wine in his hand, slowly walking towards Erdan, pointing his finger at him, and cursed loudly.
: "Li, this is Wangjiazhai. You are not welcome here. Get out of here."
The whole place fell silent instantly, and Erdan was also stunned. He was not familiar with this place, but there were people like this everywhere, so he was not surprised.
Wang Jiawang immediately walked over and cursed at him: "Wang Gengsheng, go back to me and warn you not to cause trouble here."
"Making trouble, bah, I am the candidate for the future village master of Wangjiazhai. He is a foreigner. How can he be qualified to be our new village master? You have forgotten the teachings of your ancestors."
Wang Jiawang saw that he smelled of alcohol, so he winked at the law enforcement teenager, and when he saw two teenagers coming over, he was about to pick him up and leave.
"Let me go, Wang Jiawang. As our village leader, you passed this village leader to an outsider without our consultation. How can you explain it to the people who are working hard outside? You said, if you don't give a
Say, I will not leave here today for as long as I live or die."
At this time, two young men, a man and a woman, drove into the bonfire party in a car. They got out of the car and walked directly in front of Wang Gengsheng.
"Because he has saved me from danger many times and is such a kind-hearted person, I support him to become the new leader of our Wangjiazhai."
Wang Gengsheng heard the familiar female voice and immediately turned his head to look. His face turned dark at that time. He didn't expect that even Wang Ziwei, whom he always admired, was facing this outsider.
Wang Ziwei glared at Wang Gengsheng fiercely, and then brought her younger brother Wang Chuanfu to Erdan.
"Brother Erdan, congratulations"
When Erdan saw the two brothers, he couldn't help but be a little shocked. He didn't expect that they would come back.
"Miss Ziwei, Brother Chuanfu, why are you here?"
Wang Chuanfu quickly smiled and said: "We watched the live TV broadcast. We just received a call saying that you were selected as the new village leader and a village leader meeting was being held. We rushed back overnight and we are here to support you."
Wang Ziwei looked at Erdan with admiration, then turned to glare at Wang Gengsheng who looked guilty, and couldn't help but said angrily: "Wang Gengsheng, didn't you just make some money in the medicine business? Compared with Brother Erdan
Get up, who are you? I’m telling you, don’t be dissatisfied.”
Wang Gengsheng did not expect that the goddess and crush in his heart would help Erdan, and he immediately hated Erdan even more.
He smiled coldly and said in a sinister manner: "I just don't accept it. If you have the ability, let him show his hands. Otherwise, I think everyone is dissatisfied and just let him pull out the knife?"
Wang Jiawang is not the leader of the village now, but his majesty is still there. He shouted loudly: "Wang Gengsheng, shut up, or get out of here!"
But Wang Gengsheng had a look of wolfish ambition in his eyes, and said mockingly: "Zhao Master, you don't have any private interests with this guy! It's all you need to say, but we, the villagers, are still needed."
What are you doing?"
Wang Jiawang was extremely angry, but Erdan immediately stood up, glared at Wang Gengsheng, and said with a smile: "Okay, your name is Wang Gengsheng, right? I just feel that I am destined to Wang Jiazhai, so I pulled out your
The treasured sword here, I didn’t expect to become the leader of the village. Since I accepted the baptism ceremony and completed the handover ceremony, in order to convince you, I can give you a chance, just tell me! How can I convince you?"
Facing Erdan whose aura was suppressing him, Wang Gengsheng was shocked. He didn't expect that this guy would put pressure directly on him.
But since he dared to be in the limelight, he was naturally not afraid. He only wanted to be lucky and felt that Erdan didn't have much ability.
He laughed heartily, pointed at Erdan and said: "Okay, since you are not afraid, let's compare our skills. According to the rules passed down from our ancestors, as a new candidate for the village leader, he must first have super high quality ingredients.
, secondly, you must have high-strength kung fu, and thirdly, you must have new ideas for getting rich.”
Erdan, however, shrugged and let him continue, not seeming to find it difficult at all.
Wang Gengsheng was even more unscrupulous and said to Erdan: "In the first level, at our bonfire party, you can make a delicious dish at will. If your food quality is judged better than mine, you will win.
Otherwise you lose, best of three games."
Seeing that Wang Gengsheng seemed to be winning, Erdan couldn't help but sneer and said: "Okay, since you think I'm not qualified, then I'll make you convinced that you lost today."
