Chapter 1118 Discord within the clan
The Jade Tribe in the Prayer Mountains is different from the Weishui Tribe, which is rich in spiritual trees, the Mu Tribe, and the Weishui Tribe, which has rich copper mines. They only have a small amount of jade minerals and jade carving craftsmen with exquisite skills.
The high-quality jade and the skills of the craftsmen alone are enough to make the Jade tribe one of the six major tribes in the north of Chongguo, because the precious jade carvings they produce every year are in short supply for the nobles of the three ancient countries.
nice one.
The jade articles of the Jade Clan have brought a lot of profits to the people, and made the Chong King family value them very much. However, it has also allowed some people to continue to grow greedy. Some elders have been lobbying the current patriarch Nan Guan to let him expand the scope of his prayers.
Excavating jade mines near the mountains, so that more jade can be obtained in exchange for greater profits.
However, Nanguan categorically rejected this suggestion because the ancestors of the Jade tribe had a teaching not to mine too much jade ore. Otherwise, it would be detrimental to the life in the mountains, and it would also cause serious consequences such as the mines drying up and jade no longer being produced.
Although Nan Guan has good intentions considering the overall situation, some people just don't appreciate it. The elder of the Jade Tribe, Heng Su, is the one who is most enthusiastic about exploring new mines. This guy has five sons, all of whom are strong in the Crimson Realm.
With their tyrannical strength, those who dominate the clan almost ignore the clan leader Nan Guan.
But Nanguan is not a soft persimmon, and of course he will not allow the other party to act too wantonly. The two sides are incompatible with each other.
The great changes within the clan directly led to the long-term disagreement between Nanguan and Hengsu. Finally, Elder Hengsu gave up his words and said that he would lead some clan members to leave the Prayer Mountain and start a new one.
Nanguan was so angry about this incident that in the end, in order to prevent his clan from being divided, he had to agree to the other party's rude request and handed over the power to mine new jade mines to Hengsu.
But even so, it only slightly curbed Hengsu's ambition to dominate the Jade Clan. Recently, this guy has started to stir up trouble and stir up trouble.
First, Hengsu's eldest son used a trivial matter as an excuse to hurt another elder and refused to apologize. The Nanguan clan leader dealt with it impartially and sent people to capture Hengsu's eldest son and beat him three hundred times.
Whip as a punishment.
Beating a dog depends on the owner, not to mention that he is Hengsu's most beloved eldest son. The powerful elder suddenly felt that he had been slapped loudly by Nan Guan. He immediately went to the door to find Nan Guan and made a big fuss.
Almost made a move.
However, Hengsu was acting recklessly this time and did not make any sense. Therefore, he was ridiculed by many tribesmen and elders present and left in embarrassment. This happened not long before Mrs. Nan returned to her parents' home with her child.
At this point, Mrs. Nan sighed: Alas, Elder Heng is a narrow-minded person who will retaliate with anger. My husband was worried that he would vent his anger on his family members, so he asked me to go back to my parents' house for two days.
Hearing this, Guan Heng frowned slightly and asked: But why did you suddenly rush back to pray across the mountain?
Well, last night, I was staying well at my parents' house. Suddenly, a clan member came to inform me that my husband accidentally cut his hand while carving jade carvings. Although the injury was not serious, he needed someone to take care of him.
, I came back in a hurry.
Where is the clansman who informed you to go back?
This is it
Mrs. Nan gently patted her infant son, then recalled it carefully, and then said hesitantly: When I met those evil thieves, the tribesmen who reported the news were clearly walking on the side of the carriage, but when the crowd became confused, I realized
He disappeared and there was no body on the ground.
Hearing what the other party said, even Tianlin Agou and Ruotao felt a little weird: There are such things
Mrs. Nan, if my prediction is correct, the person who informed you of the clan leader's injury must be related to Hengsu. All of this should be a trap designed to trap you and your children.
As soon as Guan Heng's words came out, the woman broke out in a cold sweat. She hesitated and said: Mr. Guan Guan, are you sure about this matter?
Well, that tribesman was responsible for luring you out. When he met a strong thief on the way, he immediately retreated and disappeared.
If all this can be successful, Hengsu can completely avoid suspicion and stay out of the matter, which is perfect. It's a pity that you escaped and met us.
Guan Heng said: I think if those bandits want to make a rescue, they should send people to ambush along the way. As long as you show up alive, you will definitely become their target.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone suddenly heard the rapid and noisy sound of horse hooves in front of them. Guan Heng's lips turned up with a sneer: Look, these guys are here, they say everyone is here, they say ghosts and ghosts are roaring.
A team of more than ten cavalrymen came galloping in the dust in an instant. In the blink of an eye, they were in front of Guan Heng and the others. The leader immediately shouted: Look, it's Nan Guan's wife.
Haha, this bitch is not dead after all. Catch her quickly. A living person is more useful.
Swish, swish, swish, this group of wild and rough bandits rushed over with their weapons drawn. The few people in front of them shouted: Except Mrs. Nan and the children, kill everyone else.
The dark red horse seeking death for Tian Lin was the closest to those people. He suddenly showed off his double daggers and rushed towards them. There was only a quick cracking sound, and the weapons in the hands of the thieves broke one after another and fell to the ground. Just as these guys were full of
While their faces were stunned and at a loss, Guan Heng and Ruotao had already jumped over at the same time.
Poof, the hand of the bandit who was leading the bandit holding the spear shaft was suddenly cut off by the thunder-swallowing blade. The guy roared in pain, and was immediately kicked by Guan Hengfei: go down.
Plop. The moment this person fell off his mount, all the guys next to him were thrown to the ground by Ruotao Tianlin and Gui Hushan. They were either dead or injured.
Oh no, two guys were walking quickly. Seeing that the situation was not good, they immediately turned their horses and fled away. But at this moment, the snake-like bird that had been gathering momentum for a long time let out a strange cry, spread its wings and waved its feathers.
The sharp bird's beak pierced the vest of one of them, and like a snake bird, it twisted and flew again. In an instant, it moved like lightning, and its claws flew past the opponent's door, immediately scratching his face.
Pa Guanheng stepped on the bandit's back and shouted coldly: Who are you? Why did you attack Mrs. Nan?
Bah, you don't want to know anything from my mouth
It was useless to try this trick. Just when the opponent was about to repeat the same trick and bite his tongue to commit suicide, Guan Heng, who had weak hands, swung his fist and landed on his cheek: bang
Several teeth spurted out from his mouth. The bandit leader was in agony. Guan Heng sneered and said: "You want to kill us when you come up. You are not very capable but very courageous. Let me teach you how to use the eyes."
