Chapter 567: Putting Pressure on the Feng Family

After hearing what Chujiu said, I was stunned, with my eyes wide open and a panicked look on my face.

"Why did Chujiu suddenly ask me this? Did she hear something?"

I swallowed my saliva with a "gulp", then laughed dryly and asked, "What could Churan and I hide from you?"

"Really?" Chujiu suddenly raised his head and looked at me with a half-smile. That expression and demeanor seemed to have seen through me.

"Really not." In a panic, I forced myself to smile, but Chujiu raised his fingers, drew circles on my chest, and said, "What about Chu Ran? She's just eighteen years old and still a little girl who doesn't know much about the world. Dad has protected her very well over the years. The reason for this is that he doesn't want Chu Ran to follow the path I have taken, and wants to give her an ordinary and happy life."

"Yes, yes, uncle is right." I nodded hurriedly to agree.

Chujiu smiled and looked at me, saying, "As for you, although you are only eighteen years old, you have experienced so many things, especially after your experience in the martial arts world. You are much more experienced than Chu Ran in both your mind and your way of dealing with things. In the future, you are destined to shine in the martial arts world. As for Chu Ran, it seems that she likes men who are mature, manly, and have a touch of heroism."

After hearing what Chujiu said, my heart suddenly rose to my throat, because I already knew what Chujiu meant.

This is obviously a warning to me!

But why did she suddenly say this?

Could it be that...she has seen something?

"I warn you, don't have any tricks. You should know that in our Miao area, there is a custom of walking marriage. Although there are not many villages that still keep this custom, if you really mess around outside, believe it or not... I will start walking marriage immediately?"

I groaned!

Chu Jiu's words made me freeze.

The so-called walking marriage means that there is no fixed couple in the whole village. Tonight, the girl can sneak into the village of the man she wants to sleep with. Tomorrow, she can sneak into the village of another man.

In the end, you don't even know whose child you are carrying.

Before, I thought that the custom of walking marriage had been abandoned long ago, but who would have thought that there are still Miao villages in Miao area that keep this custom?

"I just don't know... which Miao villages still maintain this custom? I'm about to go to the Miao area's Ten Thousand Mountains, and I'll inevitably pass by many Miao villages. Can I... join in the fun, try it myself, and participate in this non-cultural heritage?"

Just as I was stroking my chin and thinking about it, Chujiu grabbed my ear and said, "Hey, what are you thinking about?"

"Uh, nothing, nothing." I gasped in pain, then said with a flattering smile, "Don't worry, I will never mess around with other girls outside..."

"Oh, men's words are lies." Chujiu let go of my ear and sneered: "However, in our Miao area there is a kind of love-struck pig. The person who is caught by the pig will be devoted to the person who dropped the pig. As long as he thinks about other women, his heart will be in pain. If he thinks too much, it may even form blood clots and lead to death. I was thinking, should I give you... a try?"

After hearing Chujiu's words, I shuddered and said hurriedly: "No, no, I swear, I will never think about other women. From now on, when I see other women, I will walk around them and won't even look at them. Is this... okay?"

"You know what's good for you." Chujiu pushed my forehead with his finger, then got up, put on his pajamas, and got out of bed.

At this moment, Chujiu was only wearing an ultra-thin nightgown, not even a bra, and that nightgown was not only short, but also sandy and translucent. Just one look at it was enough to make my mouth dry.

"What are you doing?" I suppressed my restless emotions and asked.

Chujiu looked at me and said, "Of course I'm making breakfast to replenish your energy."

After that, Chujiu ignored my embarrassed face and walked out of the bedroom and went to the kitchen.

Ten minutes later, two cups of hot milk and four fried eggs were ready. I ate slowly while watching the news report on TV.

"The murder case in Lishui Manor is on the news?" I was shocked. At this moment, the TV was broadcasting the local news channel in Zhangjiajie, and the content was about the murder case that happened in Lishui Manor that night.

"Of course it will be on the news." Chu Jiu looked at the TV and said, "That night, there were not only those people in the manor, but also some young women who went to the party. Some people even recorded the scene of you fighting with those people in the manor. Fortunately, the Wu Shushan reserve came out in time and suppressed the matter. Otherwise, even with the power of my Feng family here, I am afraid it will be difficult to handle this matter."

I was stunned when I heard it: "The Wu Shushan reserve is here?"

"Yes." Chu Jiu nodded: "However, it's not that they have just come, but they have always been here. Wherever there are cultivators, there are Wu Shushan Reserves. Although Zhangjiajie does not have any cultivator families or any sects, this place is not far from the Yungui area. In addition, my Feng family and other Yangzhu Miao people often appear here, so Wu Shushan Reserves set up an office here."

"So that's how it is." I nodded, thinking that this is in line with the working style of Wushushan Reserves.

"But, isn't it said that the affairs of the rivers and lakes should be left to the rivers and lakes? How come this matter was reported?" I asked with some doubts.

Chujiu said, "Maybe there are too many people who know about this, or maybe... the Wushu Mountain reserve is putting pressure on my Feng family."

"Putting pressure on the Feng family?" I was stunned, thinking, aren't Chujiu and Huang Shuai very close?

I was able to help Chujiu go to Yulong Snow Mountain because of Huang Shuai's help. Otherwise, so many stories between Chujiu and me might not have happened.

Chu Jiu seemed to see through what I was thinking, and explained: "Uncle Huang and my father are indeed friends for life and death, but Uncle Huang is only the second in command of the Wu Shushan reserve force. There are some things that Uncle Huang cannot decide alone. Moreover, the purpose of the Wu Shushan reserve force is to eliminate all dangerous factors. If they cannot be eliminated, then as many as possible will be absorbed into the reserve force and become our own people. In this way, we will have more power to control them. However, my Feng family has been passed down for thousands of years, and it is a special bloodline inheritance. How could we be willing to live under someone else's roof? So this matter has never been discussed."

I understood it instantly when I heard this.

"The Wu Shushan Reserve Force has always wanted the Feng Family to surrender, but the Feng Family has always refused. Therefore, the Wu Shushan Reserve Force wants to use this incident to create public pressure, and then force the Feng Family to join the Wu Shushan Reserve Force to seek protection?"
