Chapter 900 Something Happened in Miao Village

The car was speeding on the highway, and I leaned against the window, staring at the scenery outside the window.

I just came out of the Ten Thousand Mountains in Miaojiang, and I thought I would see Chujiu right away, but I never thought that Chujiu would go into the mountains by mistake...

"If I had known, I would not have returned to Zhangjiajie and would have gone straight to find Chujiu. I took so many detours!"

I shook my head helplessly, then glanced at the driver and asked, "Are you from the Feng family?"

"Well, you can just call me Feng Wu." He nodded.

"Which lineage are you from?"

As far as I know, this lineage in Feng Changhe's family does not seem to have branched out. Now, the young people of the third generation are only Feng Chujiu and Feng Churan.

"I'm from the main family, that is... the branch that was destroyed by Fei Jiang some time ago!" When he said this, he smiled a little unnaturally, but I frowned when I heard it.

"The main family? Are you from the lineage of Second Master Chu Jiu?" I asked with frowns.

"Yes." He nodded and said, "The servants of the Feng family are basically from that lineage. Because the head of the family is from the main family, the main family must select a group of outstanding people to serve as servants for the main family in every generation. This is the tradition and rule of our Feng family. This tradition has been preserved for nearly a thousand years."

After hearing what he said, I nodded, thinking that this is the case.

However, these servants are from the main family after all, are they... trustworthy?

He seemed to see my concern, and immediately said with a smile: "We were sent to the main family when we were very young. We grew up in the main family with Uncle Feng, Chu Jiu and Chu Ran, so we don't have too deep feelings for the main family."

"So that's how it is." I nodded. "This time the Zong family was exterminated, so your Feng family may not have a Zong family anymore, right?"

Hearing this, he pondered for a moment and then said, "In theory, the Zong family will always exist. For example, if Second Uncle Feng Zhihe gets married and has children, he will have to leave the family, return to the Miao village, and become a member of the Zong family. But Second Uncle has no children in his life, so by Chujiu's generation, there is no Zong family. However, the old patriarch, that is, the old man, has already considered this issue. After all, if a large family that has been passed down for thousands of years cannot guarantee the prosperity of its population, then it is only a matter of time before it declines."

"Grandpa Chujiu is thinking of a solution?" I was stunned when I heard this. What else can he think of? The old man is so old, he can't just find another partner, have another child, and cultivate the main family, right?

"The old man has personally selected a group of servants and brought them to the Miao village." When he said this, a look of luck appeared on his face, as if to say that it was a good thing that he was not selected.

"Would you rather be a servant in the family and be ordered around than to develop on your own in the main family? It seems that in such a large family, the class concept of the main family and the main family has been solidified." I shook my head.

However, the tradition of the Feng family is really interesting. In each line, at least two children are born. One of them is chosen as the future head of the family, that is, the heir of the main family. Then the other one naturally becomes the head of the family.

This rule has been continued in the Feng family. It is estimated that it was not until the next generation of Feng Changhe, that is, Chujiu's generation, that changes occurred.

Because Feng Changhe and his wife gave birth to... two daughters!

So, the old man had to make such a response.

"We will arrive in the evening, you can rest for a while." The driver said with a smile.

"It's okay, if you are tired, we can take turns driving." I said with a smile.

The car was speeding all the way on the highway. I thought we had to go back to Jishou City and then go into the mountains along the route I took into the mountains, but we didn't.

At around five in the afternoon, the car got off the highway and then drove into the mountains along a very inconspicuous path.

Although this path is inconspicuous, it is very flat and obviously repaired. The deeper you go into the forest, the narrower the road becomes. Fortunately, the car has good performance and can pass smoothly.

In this way, we bumped in the forest for more than three hours, and finally stopped in front of a Miao village before nine o'clock.

"Are we there yet?" I looked at the Miao village outside through the car window and saw that the Miao village was very large. Unlike ordinary Miao villages, this Miao village did not use fences as courtyard walls, but used big trees.

Yes, the whole Miao village is surrounded by hundreds of tall trees. I don't know what era these trees are from. They are extremely strong and their branches and leaves are lush, almost covering the whole Miao village. If it weren't for the gate, I really couldn't tell that this is a Miao village.

But soon I found that the gate of the Miao village had been destroyed, and several large trees around it had collapsed. Through the gate, I could see that many houses in the Miao village had been severely damaged. And because the Miao village was pitch black, at this moment, this Miao village actually gave people a feeling of...death and no life.

"It seems... not right!" I don't know why, when I saw the scene in this Miao village, my heart immediately jumped, and a bad thought rose in my heart.

Not only me, but even Fengwu felt something was wrong.

"The old master and Chujiu have been here for several days. Logically, they should have repaired the village..."

"I'll go in and take a look, you wait here!" After I finished speaking, I got out of the car directly and then quietly moved into the Miao village.

At this moment, my movements were extremely light, and the whole person was like a ghost in the dark night. With a flash of my figure, I appeared in the Miao village.

After entering the Miao village, I saw that there were many houses in the Miao village, and in the center of the Miao village, there was a wooden house that occupied a larger area than the rest.

Although it is a wooden house, the construction style and materials are extremely sophisticated. It seems that this house should be the residence of the head of the main family.

I took a deep breath and slowly came to the door.

The door was ajar. I did not touch the door, but leaned sideways and slowly got in.

However, when I entered the house, my heart shuddered.

Because the moment I entered the house, a strong smell of blood instantly hit my nose.

After smelling this bloody smell, my heart was immediately shocked, and my heart was pulled up to my throat.

I put my hand on the soul-chopping knife at my waist, and then took a step and slowly walked towards the source of the bloody smell.

The smell of blood was coming from a bedroom. I walked to the door, swallowed my saliva, stretched out my hand, and pushed the door open.

"Squeak..."
