After the divorce, the boss tore off my vest with his own hands

The patriarch finally stated his request.

Their Dongren Village is outside the normal social system. They have always been self-sufficient, have their own ethnic rules, are isolated from the world, and never cause trouble outside.

But many times, it doesn't mean that you can be safe and stable if you don't cause trouble. Ambergris is the treasure of their clan and protects their clan's prosperity. However, because it is too precious, it has brought too many dangers and sins to their clan.

In recent years, there have been more and more people who are greedy for profit, and their methods have become more and more bad. It is obvious that the disaster has exceeded the shelter. If they want to continue in Dongren Village, they must find a real force they can rely on.

Because of these things, the patriarch didn't think about food or tea until he met Sheng Tingye.

Although this man's behavior was very offensive, his behavior was completely different from those bad guys, and he looked like a person of high status, so he put his hope in Sheng Tingye.

That day, Sheng Tingye was caught by the people guarding the ancestral hall, tied up and thrown into the village entrance courtyard. All the villagers clamored that those who insulted the real dragon should be punished, and that they should steam him alive into tender meat to appease the real dragon's anger. .

The clan leader overcame all opinions and blocked the decision to steam Sheng Tingye alive, and then locked him in a small dark room next to the ancestral hall.

He guessed that with Sheng Tingye's status, someone would definitely come to rescue him, and he would use this as a basis for negotiation.

Sure enough, Chu Zhihan and Situ Xuan came quickly with their troops. Their strength was stronger than he imagined, but they did not kill them all like the bad guys in the past because of their strength.

The clan leader feels that such a person is worthy of trust and can be chosen as a force to protect their clan!

"My request may be a bit unreasonable, but...this is the price your people have to pay for touching our saliva."

The patriarch is no longer as aggressive as he was at the foot of the mountain. He has an old face and a pleading expression, "I hope you can agree, so that our Dongren Village can continue from generation to generation."

"That's it?"

Situ Xuan was already full of energy, thinking about how these barbarians planned to hit them, but he didn't expect their request to be so simple? !

Moreover, hearing about the past of their village, it felt quite pitiful, and he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.

"If you agree, then we will press your fingerprints and it will take effect. If you are not willing, then... our village is also ready for a life-and-death battle!"

When the patriarch said this, the villagers gathered around tensed up their nerves, holding primitive but sharp weapons in their hands, ready for battle at any time.

"It's simple. This buddy and I have people on hand. As long as you are willing to let my second brother Sheng go, these people can be stationed at the foot of the mountain or at the entrance of the village to protect you all year round, and there is no protection fee."

Situ Xuan agreed very simply.

It is not difficult for him to mobilize these resources.

"I have no objection either."

Chu Zhihan looked at the clan leader. Compared to Situ Xuan's careless attitude, his attitude was quite sincere, "Although I don't have many people, they all dare to fight and charge, and they are loyal. I believe that as long as I order them to protect Under the orders of Dongren Village, they will do their best to protect the stability of this area throughout their lives."

"That's fine, that's fine."

When the clan leader heard what Chu Zhihan said, his heart finally calmed down.

Chu Zhihan added: "However, because of my sister's special situation, if I need to use ambergris in the future, I hope the clan leader can be accommodating."

"If you sincerely protect our Dongren Village, you will also be the benefactor of Dongren Village. Although the villagers of our Dongren Village are barbaric, they are also generous and benevolent. Although ambergris is a precious thing, the amount is less than fifty milliliters per year. If it is really used We will definitely not be stingy when it comes to saving the lives of our benefactors."

The clan leader said cheerfully.

As a result, the two parties who were originally at war with each other, after this negotiation, both expressed their respective demands, but it was rare for them to become harmonious.

The clan leader took out the contract, and Chu Zhihan and Situ Xuan both pressed their fingerprints, which also indicated that they would work together to protect Dongren Village and allow this ancient village to continue.

"Okay, we have agreed to your request. Can you let him go now?"

Situ Xuan had no patience, wiped the red seal mud on his palms, and urged the clan leader.

"You two, follow me."

The clan leader walked in front, leading Situ Xuan and Chu Zhihan to the ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall is the most sacred place in a village. Generally, only men from the village can enter, and outsiders are not allowed to approach it at all.

This time, the village made an exception and took them in.

Because Sheng Tingye was locked in a dark room at the back of the ancestral hall.

"Come on, this place is really dark and weird!"

Situ Xuan entered the ancestral hall, looked at the large stalactite statues of different shapes by the dim kerosene lamp, and marveled at the uncanny workmanship of nature.

Chu Zhihan was also shocked, "I have seen many rare things. Your Dongren Village is really spiritual. No wonder it is remembered by so many people."

However, the situation was urgent and they were not in the mood to visit. After walking through twists and turns, the clan leader stopped in front of the darkroom with a somewhat apologetic expression, "Your people are locked in by us. There are many excuse me."

"Damn it, you actually dare to lock my second brother Sheng here, it's really..."

Situ Xuan's clenched fist was about to hit the clan leader. Thinking of the contract he pressed before, he could only put it down, "It's so damned!"

He kicked the door open and said, "Brother Sheng, I'm here to save you!"

What surprised them was that there was no one in the dark room.

"What's the situation, where are the people?"

Situ Xuan searched around but couldn't find Sheng Tingye. He turned back to the village and asked, "Didn't you say he was locked up inside? Why can't he see anyone? Are you kidding me?"

"How can there be no one? It's impossible!"

The villager walked in and searched around, but found no one. His face suddenly turned pale, and he said, "Impossible, impossible. I clearly asked people to lock him here, and there are always guards guarding him." Well, he can't just disappear into thin air, can he?"

"You're still pretending, you are clearly a liar, deliberately deceiving us!"

Situ Xuan grabbed the clan leader by the collar and said, "Tell me where he is, or I'll punch you to death!"

"I didn't lie to you, I really didn't lie to you."

The patriarch expressed his helplessness.

Chu Zhihan looked around and found a clue in a corner, "Don't embarrass the clan leader. He did not lie. It's just that Sheng Tingye is too smart. He may have escaped on his own."
