Watching the Seventh Ancestor leave, the big stone hanging in Jiang Shan's heart finally let go.
At this time, Jiang Xing'an, who was standing aside, raised his fists towards the depths of the ancestral pavilion and said, "Ancestors, since this matter has been decided, Xing'an will take his leave first."
The Sixth Patriarch's voice suddenly sounded: "Jiang Shan, don't leave. Stay for now and come to my place."
"You have found Jiang Yun this time, and you have made a great contribution. The ancestor will give you some rewards!"
Hearing the words of the Sixth Patriarch, Jiang Shan was stunned at first, but then his eyes showed a look of ecstasy. He hurriedly turned over and knelt on the ground, kowtowed towards the direction from which the voice came, and kept kowtowing: "Thank you, ancestor!"
Although these seven ancestors are all members of the Jiang family, at their status, it is almost impossible to give guidance to their descendants in their practice or provide any help.
Among the Jiang family, if you want to gain status and recognition, you rely not on relationships, but on your own strength.
Even if you are the biological son of the ancestor, don't think about what privileges and backing you can have.
What you want to get, you still need to fight for it yourself.
Because once an ancestor helps his descendants, other ancestors must also support their descendants.
Such an approach is likely to cause disputes, cause greater conflicts, and cause the Jiang family to fall apart.
Even when Jiang Tianyou arrived, the seven of them only met once.
For this reason, the ancestors simply stopped caring about their descendants. Whether they can grow up or not depends entirely on their own efforts and luck.
Now, Jiang Shan discovered that Jiang Yun had indeed made meritorious deeds, so it was not an exaggeration for the Sixth Patriarch to reward him.
And Jiang Shan, along with his clan members, have mediocre qualifications. No outstanding talents have been born since the Sixth Patriarch, and their status in the Jiang family is really average.
It can even be said to be an inconspicuous existence.
Otherwise, how could Jiang Jingxi find Jiang Shan, plot against him, and let him serve as war supervisor and go to the All Heavens Gathering Area to kill Jiang Yun.
If he fails in his mission, he may be thrown away by Jiang Jingxi as an outcast.
Therefore, if he can get the help of the Sixth Patriarch and he works hard, it will really be possible to change his own destiny and that of the entire clan from now on.
Jiang Xing'an smiled slightly, ignored Jiang Shan, and turned around to leave.
And above the sky, a big hand appeared directly, grabbed Jiang Shan, and disappeared without a trace.
Jiang Shan felt his eyes blurred, and before he could see clearly what was going on around him, he heard a dull crashing sound like thunder.
"Bang bang bang!"
The sound alone made him dizzy and made his chest feel tight.
It wasn't until a mouthful of blood spurted out that I felt better.
When he finally calmed down, he turned around and found that he was already in a... blacksmith shop.
The reason why it is said to be a blacksmith's shop is because in front of him there is a huge furnace that is over three feet high.
On top of the stove stood an ax that was not yet fully formed.
Next to it, stood a bare-chested, extremely burly giant old man, six or seven feet tall, holding a hammer and constantly banging on an ax that was not yet fully formed.
This is the first time Jiang Shan has entered the world of the Sixth Patriarch.
The Sixth Patriarch looked at Jiang Shan, finally showed a smile on his face and said: "Fortunately, it's not hopeless."
"In this case, then you remember, after Jiang Yun comes, no matter what happens to the family, no matter what other clan members, including me, have towards him, you must stand by his side and support him.
To him."
"Even if someone wants to kill him, you must protect him without hesitation!"
Jiang Shan's eyes widened, his mouth opened wide, and he stared blankly at the Sixth Patriarch, confused, and his mind became even more confused.
The Sixth Patriarch, however, suppressed his smile again and glared: "Do you remember?"
Jiang Shan nodded and said: "Remember, remember!"
The Sixth Patriarch reached out and handed the hammer in his hand to Jiang Shan and said: "Remember, then continue to build the ax for me."
"After the refining is successful, the ax will be yours!"
"Although it is not an imperial weapon, it is at least a quasi-imperial weapon, enough for you to use until you become emperor."
After leaving these words, the Sixth Patriarch turned around and left, leaving behind Jiang Shan, who was holding the ax and standing there as if he had turned into a statue.
Walking outside the house, the Sixth Patriarch looked up at the sky, and suddenly exhaled a long breath and said: "The Jiang family is going to be in trouble!"
"This time, if the bet is right, then my descendants will have a chance to rise."
"If you lose the bet..." After a moment of silence, the Sixth Patriarch suddenly smiled and said: "The worst thing is, from now on, there will be no more members of my clan!"
