The road of the house owner of the pig in the Chanyuan

"Master Patriarch, this is an account of the Lunar Clan. According to your instructions, except for the necessary daily expenses, other aspects, such as the expenses on drinks and food, have been reduced to a certain extent. The saved funds are all used for the cultivation of the youngest sons of the clan, but..."

As he said that, the attendant paused, as if he was a little embarrassed and didn't know where to start, his face was tangled.

"What's the matter?" Naoya, who was walking in front and listening to the attendant's report on the clan's affairs one by one, saw that the attendant fell silent halfway through speaking, and turned his face slightly to the side to give him a sideways glance. Revealing a bit of the natural majesty that belongs only to the superior, his lips and teeth moved, and he asked lightly, "Just what?"

The attendant immediately lowered his head a little lower, with cold sweat on his forehead, and said in a slightly trembling voice, "It's just... the elders of the clan are sorry for you allowing the girls in the clan to be taught together with other young children. very... dissatisfied."

"Because of your strong arrangement, they dare not do anything on the surface, but they secretly carry you behind their backs. They work together with the teacher in charge of teaching, and teach the women of the clan separately from the other young children. When teaching the young children, they are very careful. ...but when it comes time to teach the women of the family, they are perfunctory...sometimes, even on purpose, they don't go."

After the attendant finished speaking, he closed his eyes tightly and lowered his head, not daring to look at Naoya's face.

"Heh." But I didn't want to, after listening to the attendant's narration, Naoya didn't have any special mood swings, the expression between his brows was still indifferent, and he only let out a sneer of unknown meaning from his nasal cavity, and sighed with emotion , "I originally thought that after such a long time, they would improve to some extent, but I didn't realize that they still only know these little tricks."

It was obviously a speech without any special emotion, but after the attendant heard it, his legs trembled twice involuntarily, and he fell silent for a while, even more silent and dared not answer a single word.

Even the head of the Naoya family in front of him is only about to turn 13 years old this year-even his 13th birthday has just passed, but the head of the Naoya family advocates frugality, and he is just a little bit of a fan of his own birthday. It was done hastily, and there was not much celebration.

The attendant used to be by the side of the former Patriarch Zhibiren, and he thought he had some knowledge, but before, he would never have expected that the young master Naoya, who had been almost unknown and had been missing for nearly a year, would actually At the age of less than ten years old, he was able to sit on the position of the Patriarch of the Chanyuan family.

Even though there are precedents of the Wutiao family, the Chanyuan is different after all.

Even if Master Zhizai is the successor of the ten-shadow method that the Zenyuan family has been looking forward to for a hundred years, and is destined to be the head of the family in the future, but in the Zenyuan that overemphasizes the power of the strong, especially the group of stubborn elders, He is also more willing to let the ten shadow spells be developed to the extreme, and then enshrine him as the head of the family at the coming-of-age ceremony of the successor of the ten shadow spells.

But Zhizai went against their wishes, or in other words, escaped from their control, and took the position of Patriarch by force at the age of ten.

It is precisely because of this that in the first year, all the elders in the clan often made troubles with Zhizai secretly, and whenever there were important matters to be discussed in the clan, they did not give Zhizai any face as the head of the family at all, blatantly His absence, and Naoya's arrangements, he has never been indifferent or unmoved.

In this regard, Naoya did not make any expression, he was neither angry nor embarrassed, he almost regarded the elders who opposed him as transparent people, and just blindly and earnestly learned from the former head of the family, Zhibi, how to manage the clan. From the very beginning, he asked about matters big and small almost every day, and then the frequency gradually decreased. After a year, Naoya was able to arrange all the affairs of the clan by himself, and everything was in order.

Even the elders of the clan are still indifferent to Patriarch Naoya and ignore him endlessly.

The attendant at that time had already been sent by the Zhipi people to assist the current Patriarch Naoya. Although he was respectful to Naoya on the surface, he could not help but feel a little bit in his heart, thinking that Naoya was too young to be the Patriarch. A bit majestic, after all, it is difficult to convince the public.

Over the past year, the forces within the clan have gradually split, and the elders who opposed Naoya have all forgotten how Naoya summoned a huge, loyal man in front of everyone at the birthday party a year ago. How did Jade Dog and Nue, the guardians of the Lord, teach their uncle Shanyuan Shan a lesson?

Perhaps it was because Naoya ignored their various behaviors during this year, and even let them go, which made them feel even more that the aggressive Naoya at the birthday party was just a temporary strength, but in fact There is nothing to be afraid of.

Therefore, they slowly developed some thoughts that shouldn't have arisen, thinking that they only need to wait for the right time to fully control Naoya again, so that the ten shadow spells can truly become their own ten shadow spells.

However, what none of them expected was that everything changed from the second year onwards.

It was not long after the new year, around the end of January, Zenyuan Fan's wife gave birth to a pair of twins for him. This is a joyful event in the eyes of ordinary people, but Zenyuan Fan was furious because of it. He even swung a knife in his hand, intending to kill a pair of infants who were still in their infancy.

Just because this pair of infants are both girls.

This undoubtedly shattered the dream of the Patriarch of Chanyuan Fan. When the attendants followed Naoya to hear the news, they saw that Zenyuan Fan was holding a long knife in his hand, pointing directly at his wife who was holding a pair of babies, his eyes were red, Veins burst out, his face was ferocious, like a Shura ghost, screaming and cursing "trash", he slashed the long knife in his hand at his wife and the newborn children.

Patriarch Naoya, he should be able to stop him, the attendant at that time frowned and looked at the chaos in front of him, thinking in his heart, but when he looked at Naoya's side face in the front right, he saw a trace of Hesitating and struggling with...?

The attendant didn't know if his vision was wrong, and he could still understand the hesitation. After all, the Chanyuan fan was no longer a threat to Patriarch Naoya, so Patriarch Naoya naturally didn't need to waste his time trying to deal with the aftermath for the other party.

However, Patriarch Naozai is still young, it is reasonable to feel sorry for the woman and her newborn child, and he would hesitate to bear her death.

However, where did the rest of the struggling emotions come from?

Seeing that the blade of the Chanyuan fan was about to hit his wife and daughter, Patriarch Naoya still did not move. Just when the attendant thought that the couple would surely die, a gust of wind suddenly blew up for no reason. The attendant's eyes were dazzled, and when he opened his eyes again, he did see the Chanyuan fan fainted on the ground, his wife curled up in a corner with a pair of daughters in his arms, safe and sound, but the long knife in his hand was gone.

Just when the attendant was puzzled, the long knife that broke into several pieces suddenly fell vertically with a long howl in the air, and made several crisp crackling noises when it touched the ground.

The attendant quickly raised his head, only to see a giant gray-white bird standing on the beam, with a steel-like sharp beak holding a knife handle, which seemed to be bitten by it as a teething stick. Bite away.

It's Nue!

The attendant was shocked, almost speechless, no wonder he lost his composure, in the year since Naoya became Patriarch, he rarely summoned the shikigami in the shadow in public, so speaking, the attendant is also the number one at the moment. The first time I saw it with my own eyes, it was inevitable that I lost control of my mood for a while.

When the attendant came back to his senses and looked at Naoya again, he saw that the other party had already walked in front of the wife and daughter of Zen Yuanshan.

However, even though the woman was rescued by Patriarch Naoya, she still didn't dare to stand up and hugged her daughter even tighter. Her eyes were originally numb and lifeless, but she was forced to see a hint of persistence by the attendants.

It was the daughter born to her in October, out of her mother's instinctive protection.

They just stared at each other in silence for an unknown amount of time.

When the attendant finally heard Patriarch Naoya speak again, the words he said made his complexion suddenly change.

Naoya said to the wife of Zenyuan Fan with a cold expression, "Do you want to take your daughter and leave here?"

The attendant never thought that Patriarch Naozai would say such a thing.

Taking this sentence as an opportunity, a group of elders who had been dormant for a long time finally found what they thought was the most suitable opportunity to attack and question Naoya's position as the head of the family aggressively.

"As the ten shadows method, you have done something out of line that has never been done in our Buddhist monastery for hundreds of years. It is simply outrageous! Now you are not qualified to sit in the position of Patriarch." The elder in charge was full of momentum. , led the rest of the elders, and the conjurers in the Bing organization who were dissatisfied with Naoya and obeyed them, surrounded Naoya.

The attendant standing beside Naoya was still hesitating whether to report to the Naoya-sama who hadn't shown up yet, but the next second, he saw Patriarch Naoya in front of him, raised the corners of his lips, and said softly——

"Oh? Then I want to ask, who do you think is qualified?"

But the elder at the head snorted, as if he felt that he had already taken Naozai completely, and looked inhumanely, "You don't need to worry about this, of course, if you are willing to listen to our advice and 'reform', oh, in the future Maybe it will make you…”

However, before the head elder finished speaking, he paused suddenly, his face turned completely pale in an instant, the corner of his mouth was bleeding, and after a few shakes, before everyone could react, he helped him a little bit, He fell heavily to the ground and made close contact with the floor, making a dull loud noise.

Behind him, the people who were still arrogant and arrogant at first were stunned when they saw this sudden change, and they were at a loss for a while. When someone finally noticed something was wrong and stepped forward to check, they found that The elder, who was still radiant, was already out of breath, his eyes were wide open, as if he didn't even know what happened, only his darkened lips faintly revealed everything.

"...Yes, it is poison, he is poisoned!!!"

The people who stepped forward to check hurriedly backed away in horror, while the expressions of the other people around them changed almost at the same time. They lost the confidence they had when confronting Naoya just now, covered their mouths and noses, and hurriedly retreated.

Originally, he was also wondering how the elder was poisoned to death as an attendant, but suddenly he saw the Patriarch Naoya in front of him, and unexpectedly there was a big blue python all over his body.

Although it is a boa constrictor, its stature is very slender, without the clumsy feeling of an ordinary boa constrictor at all, especially the neck between the head and body is extraordinarily slender.

Could it be... The attendant looked at the big python, and then at the dead elder, and a frightening thought that made him very uneasy appeared in his mind.

"By the way, I haven't had time to introduce it to you all." Naoya seemed to be in a good mood, completely ignoring the death of the elder, and said loudly, "This is the big snake that I have tamed not long ago. It is called Xiaoqing. .”

Saying that, Naoya paused, then laughed softly, "It is poisonous."

After Naoya's words fell, the people who had been silent for a long time realized how the elder died.

At this point, they finally understood that Naoya was not really as weak and deceitful as they imagined, and the weakness shown to them in the previous year was just the other party's temporary tolerance.

Just to wait until this moment, when they all think they have the chance to win, to defeat them in one fell swoop.

It was only then that the attendant suddenly realized that in the past year, he had never really recognized the Patriarch.

----

With the end of the memory, the attendants followed Naoya to a small courtyard——Since Naoya became the head of the house, he did not go to the big house where the head should have lived, but still stayed in the small courtyard where the head used to live inside.

"Okay," Naoya suddenly said to the attendant behind him when he walked to the gate of the courtyard, and stretched out his hand, "Give me the ledger, I don't need you here, go down."

"Yes, Master Patriarch." The attendant bowed respectfully and presented the ledger with both hands.

No one can enter the small courtyard of Patriarch Naoya except his father Zhibi, and no servants are needed. This point has become the consensus of the entire Chanyuan.

After the attendant left and walked away, Naoya, who had a cold and sullen face, opened the door and returned to his room with the account book. After seeing the figure that suddenly appeared in his room, his expression relaxed, and he put his hand Throwing the account book on the table casually, the whole person burrowed into the kotatsu, with his face lying on the table, completely limp.

"Yo, you're so tired," Gojo Satoru, who teleported over, couldn't help teasing when he saw Naoya lying on the kotatsu with a tired face as soon as he arrived, "You really deserve to be the head of the family who manages so many things every day."

"...Don't make fun of me," Naoya rolled his eyes, changed himself to a more comfortable sleeping position, and muttered, "It's not like you don't know, those old people What a disgusting person..."

"That's right, your old man is much more annoying than mine." Gojo Satoru smiled, squeezed to Naoya's side, and got into the warm kotatsu together, rubbing Naoya's legs affectionately, "And Is something wrong?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just a small problem." Naoya closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

In the past few years, they have always been like this. At night, they gather in Naoya's small courtyard, or discuss some difficult matters together, or accompany each other quietly, and Naoya's sleep quality is also due to the existence of Gojo Satoru. Much better, but this also indirectly led to Gojo Gori boldly occupying half of his bed.

He even prepared a few sets of frequently changed pajamas for him.

"I'm doing this for your own good!" Gojo Satoru puffed up his chest and said plausibly, "After you become the head of the family, there will be more things to deal with. If you can't even sleep well, how can you have energy? To deal with those old men?"

Naoya: "..." I almost believed it.

Helpless, Naoya, who was forcibly intervened in sleep life, had no superfluous consciousness except for the first time, and after that, from the beginning of all kinds of awkwardness and inadaptability, he gradually got used to it now. I have to say, getting used to this kind of thing, It was really silent.

"It's still so early, don't you just want to sleep?" Gojo Satoru deliberately leaned into Naoya's ear and smiled, "By the way, did I recommend you to play the game last time? Quickly take out your phone and give it to me Let's see if you can break my record."

"...You're so annoying, why don't you just let me be quiet for a while." Naoya, who was too disturbed to continue taking a nap, finally took out his phone from his pocket and said angrily, "What's the point? ..."

However, when Naoya turned on the screen of the phone, the unfinished words came to an abrupt end. The bottom of the eyes, which had been a little sleepy because of the nap just now, regained clarity in an instant, and the brows were full of gullies.

"What's the matter?" Seeing this situation, Gojo Satoru couldn't help being puzzled, his expression changed from the joke just now, with a hint of seriousness, and he asked, "Did someone send you a text message?"

"...It's Shir," Naoya finally said in a deep voice after a long while, the corners of his eyes and brows were extremely serious, and the knuckles holding the phone were slightly white, "Miss Risui has an accident."
