As a map was placed on the table, the tribesmen nearby hurriedly pointed out the direction on the map.
Xie Yanmiao looked at the fairly detailed map in his hand, and after seeing the direction the three people from the Mingshi family were heading, his eyes narrowed slightly.
The Shi family must be crazy. They are actually planning to seek external assistance, and only use it to deal with a small Chen family.
Little did he know that this would also break the long-standing pattern of Yong'an City and change the current family situation. Even his Xie family might not be able to escape unscathed.
But after thinking for a while, Xie Yanmiao put away the map on the table and did not give any other orders.
He also had his own thoughts in his mind.
The changed pattern may not be a bad thing for the family today.
With the involvement of the other three families, the family has many inconveniences in doing things. With the current strength of the family, it is not enough to deal with the three major families.
If we can use the Shi family as a breakthrough point, it would also be a good choice to deal with the other two major families first.
After dealing with the other two major families, the Shi family will be alone and the clan will have more opportunities.
However, the family has to be on guard against the Shi family's actions.
As for the Chen family, it was just a lucky family. The survival of the Chen family was not within his consideration.
…
"Chief, everything is safe and sound around the mass grave mountain..."
"Chief, the blood rice has started to grow smoothly in the fertile fields, and I have sent people from the tribe to closely monitor the surrounding areas..."
"Chief, according to the news sent back by the clan members in Yong'an City, the Shi family has not made any moves recently, and the other three major families remain the same..."
In the family lobby, Chen Tianyu and his group were discussing the family's recent situation.
After hearing this, Chen Xingzhen nodded slightly. Ever since the last blood rice poisoning, the family has become more cautious and has sent many clansmen to guard against similar incidents.
The Shi family did not take any action, which meant that the family had more time to develop. It also meant that the next time the Shi family took action, perhaps even the Zhou family's name would not be able to stop it.
Although this is just his guess, the family must prepare for the worst.
The only pity is that the family cannot take the initiative now and can only respond to changes by remaining unchanged.
Fortunately, Yong'an City is some distance away from the family. As long as the family sets up some secret sentries along the way, there is no need to worry about sudden attacks from other families.
The problem facing Chen Xingzhen right now is that the strength of many clansmen has once again stagnated.
Although there is still a lot of blood rice left, and the family has already brewed some of the blood rice into rice wine, the family is still lacking in resources.
The five hundred kilograms of blood rice exchanged with the Xie family last time sounds like a lot, but it can only be exchanged for a few rootless fruits, which is far from enough to supply the training of the family's blood coagulation realm warriors.
Especially recently, there are several members in the late Body Tempering Realm who are about to break through, and the family will need even more resources at that time.
It will take until May before the family's blood rice is harvested, and there is still a two-month window in between.
During this window period, we cannot let the clan members' realm stagnate. We must do our best to help the clan members improve to the maximum, so that we can deal with the revenge of the Shi family in the future.
What should I do?
Chen Xingzhen fell into deep thought.
But soon, Chen Xingzhen recalled the place that Chen Qinghe and Chen Qingmeng had encountered before, which was suspected to be the ruins of an ancient family.
If this relic can be developed, I wonder if it can help improve the family.
But even Chen Qingyu felt that the ruins were very dangerous and probably not a good place.
According to his original intention, he should wait until the family is completely stabilized and the overall strength of the clan members is strong before exploring.
But time waits for no one, and he does not have much confidence in dealing with the crisis that will come to the family in the future. He may still need to take a risk.
After Chen Xingzhen expressed his thoughts, Chen Tianyu and others beside him also fell into deep thought.
"Clan leader, I think this matter can be done. Right now the family is relatively stable and the Shi family has not made any moves. Instead of sitting and waiting for death, it is better to explore the ruins here first. Perhaps there are things inside that can increase the family's strength. When the Shi family attacks, the family will be more confident in dealing with it."
"I agree with Tianyu's point of view. If it is really the remains of an ancient family, it has been buried under this mass grave for a long time. Most of the things inside are estimated to have been destroyed. If there is really an irresistible force majeure, the family can withdraw at any time and seal the ruins."
There was a glimmer of light in the eyes of the other tribesmen.
They had never seen any ancient relics, and the only thing that could be considered a relic was probably the corpse of their ancestor in the ancestral hall.
As for these unknown ancient relics, they were more curious.
Besides, the family still has the sacred tree, so as long as he doesn't die on the spot, there won't be any big danger.
After hearing the thoughts of his clansmen, Chen Xingzhen still did not rush to agree.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Xingzhen said:
"How about this, I will go and ask the sacred tree and my father tonight to see what they think."
Today, the family totem is no longer what it used to be. I think the sacred tree should be able to give the family some reminders or warnings on this matter.
night.
Chen Xingzhen stood under the shade of the tree, expressed his thoughts during the day, and then prayed quietly, wanting to hear the guidance of the sacred tree.
Above, Ji Yang slowly gathered his wandering consciousness and fell into deep thought.
Of course he knew about the ancient family ruins here.
He also liked Chen Xingzhen's original idea very much. After the family became stable, his roots would surely have spread further, and the mass grave mountain would also be under his control.
In this way, there will be no threats to the family, and the members can explore with confidence.
Exploring in advance will definitely involve unknown risks.
But now it seems that the family really can't wait until that time.
The silence of the Shi family made Ji Yang feel a sense of crisis. After losing a martial artist who had reached the highest level of the Xiantian Realm, they remained unmoved. The Shi family must have other plans, and the family could not sit idly by.
After a moment of silence, Ji Yang once again activated his vitality and dropped several locust leaves.
He couldn't do much for the family because he was out of reach, but he could avoid casualties among the clan members to a certain extent.
Chen Xingzhen, who had received the will of the sacred tree, did not stay any longer and prepared to ask his father's opinion in his dream.
In the dream, Chen Changming's figure quickly appeared before his eyes.
He also knew everything that Chen Xingzhen said in the ancestral hall.
“If you want to do it, just do it!”
"Dad will always support you! The tribesmen here also support you!"
After getting his father's affirmation, Chen Xingzhen no longer had any worries.
The ruins are dead, but people are alive. To explore the ruins, you don’t have to rush in headfirst.
If they realize that things are impossible to do, the family can withdraw at any time. After all, the ruins are not far away from the family, which is also the family's confidence.
