Zhan Lianshi sat there and looked at the man who suddenly became cold and stern, "If the clan leader is in any trouble, I will do my best to protect the Jinfeng clan."
"Hmph! Our Jinfeng clan has thousands of years of foundation, why do we need you, an outsider, to comment on it?"
The woman looked at Zhan Lian sternly, flicked her sleeves, strode out of the door, and disappeared from Zhan Lian's sight.
Yinzhi came to Zhan Lianshi and stretched out her hand, "Sir, please."
The annual New Year's Festival is held in the Jinfeng Clan, and the whole clan is filled with a lively and festive atmosphere.
But these atmospheres have nothing to do with Zhan Lianshi, and he has no access to them.
Because Yinzhi took him on another path.
The way we came is different, and the way we leave is also different.
Zhan Lianshi and Xu Ping followed Yinzhi in front and shuttled through the alleys.
The members of the Jinfeng tribe all live in this area. No one lives alone in other places. They gather together, like a lively small village. Each family's house is next to mine, and I am next to you, forming a
Very strange layout.
It is impossible for outsiders to enter here safely without anyone to guide them.
When Xu Ping followed Zhan Lian, he looked around calmly.
Now almost every household goes to the clan's sacrificial altar to celebrate the festival. There is no one at home, and even if there is, they can't see it during the Zhanlian period.
Because the walls of these houses are extremely high, people outside cannot enter, and people inside cannot see out.
Extremely hidden.
There are cheering sounds in the distance. Although the distance is far away, you can still hear everyone's happiness from these sounds.
Pure, without a trace of impurities.
Zhan Lianshi always followed Yinzhi. He looked at the winding alley ahead and could never see the way forward.
His steps were neither hurried nor slow, and there was no strange color in his eyes.
Suddenly, he stopped.
Yin Zhi, who was walking in front, and Xu Ping, who was behind him, also stopped.
Because, at the corner ahead, an old lady in ragged clothes, with a stooped figure and a big wooden stick came over.
She walked very slowly, and she was wearing a chain of silver, wooden, and gold ornaments on her body. From her neck, to her clothes, to the big wooden stick in her hand, it was dazzling to see.
Before, these things made no sound at all, but now, as she appeared, these things jingled and the sound was clear and sweet.
At this moment, the wind around seemed to have changed.
Zhan Lianshi looked at the old man, his eyes moved slightly and he stopped stepping forward.
"Mother-in-law, why did you come out?"
When Yinzhi saw the old man, she was very surprised. Then she immediately went over and helped the old man.
The old man is not tall, only about 1.34 meters tall. Her hair is gray and strands are braided down.
She was very old, and the skin on her face was not smooth at all, it was all wrinkled, and she looked like the bark of an old tree that had lived for thousands of years.
What's even more unexpected is that her eyes are golden, just like amber, revealing a long silence that lasts for a long time.
She held her cane, tilted her head slightly, and faced Yinzhi and said, "Today is our clan's holiday, and I want to go out for a walk."
Although she was facing Yinzhi, she did not look at Yinzhi's face, and her golden eyes did not have the look of an ordinary person.
Just like a beautiful painting, although it looks good, it is not alive.
She can't see.
"That……"
Yinzhi frowned and looked at Zhan Lianshi and Xu Ping.
She wanted to send the two of them out and they couldn't leave.
But she sent the two of them off, but her mother-in-law stayed here, and she was worried.
Yinzhi thought for a moment, and then said: "Then you wait here for a while, I will send them away, and then I will take you to the altar."
"Um."
The old man stood there and didn't move.
When Yinzhi looked at Zhanlian, "Let's go."
She quickened her steps and headed outside.
Zhan Lianshi didn't say anything and followed him, as did Xu Ping.
However, Xu Ping's eyes were still on the old man. Looking at the old man's weird attire and weird face, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Zhan Lianshi walked past the old man, and at this moment, he smelled a scent.
The fragrance is very light, not floral or tea, but sandalwood.
But there was something slightly different about the sandalwood. It seemed to be mixed with something else, and he couldn't smell it.
I just think this taste is unusual.
Zhan Lian's eyes moved and his steps moved forward.
Suddenly, his figure stopped, and his vision went black. When he realized what had happened to him, he fell down uncontrollably.
Before he fell, he looked at the old man standing behind him.
At this time, the old man was looking at him, his golden eyes motionless.
Yinzhi heard two thumps falling to the ground behind her. She was startled and turned around immediately.
When she saw Zhan Lianshi and Xu Ping lying on the ground, her face changed slightly, and then she immediately looked at the people behind her.
"Mother-in-law, what are you..."
The old man picked up his cane and pointed at Zhan Lian lying on the ground, "Send him to me."
—
It was exactly 9:40 when Zhan Keke and Zhan Qibei arrived at the hospital. The little girl ran towards the elevator happily, and the heavy mood of the people next to her became lighter.
Zhan Qibei saw the little girl jumping around so lively, with a smile on his face and even walking faster.
Uncle Liu originally wanted to follow Zhan Keke and run away to avoid the little girl bumping into someone and falling down. But when he saw Zhan Qibei walking quickly with his cane, and he was worried about Zhan Qibei, he could only say: "Little miss, slow down."
Then he supported Zhan Qibei and said: "You are not in a hurry."
Zhan Keke went over, and just as the elevator door opened, the little girl stepped aside to let the people inside come out.
After all the people inside were gone, she went in, stepped up and pressed the door button, and then waved to Zhan Qibei, "Grandpa, hurry up!"
Looking at the face of the little sun, Zhan Qibei quickened his pace and chuckled, "Coming, coming."
Several people entered the elevator. Uncle Liu pressed the floor where the forest curtain was located, and the elevator went up.
"Keke is going to see mommy, I'm so happy!"
The little girl stood next to Zhan Qibei, holding her little hand and jumping up and down happily.
Zhan Qibei looked at her little appearance with love in his eyes.
The little girl watched the floor numbers jump and started counting. When she heard a ding, she screamed, "Ahhhh, it's coming soon!"
"Coco is so excited!"
Such excitement made Zhan Qibei unable to hold her little hand.
When the elevator door opened, the little girl ran out in a gust of wind, unable to stop screaming.
Zhan Qibei said: "Follow me quickly."
Uncle Liu frowned, "Then you..."
"We're already here, what are you still afraid of? Go quickly."
Uncle Liu nodded, said no more, and hurriedly followed, "Little miss, wait for Grandpa Liu."
Zhan Qibei heard this voice and followed with his cane, his face full of smiles.
"Mommy——!"
"Coco is here!"
"Mommy——!"
"..."
The little girl's clear and loud cry made everyone on the entire floor run away in fright.
