Chapter 995: Don’t you want to take away the Xu family’s things?
“Don’t worry.” The village chief knocked on the ground with his walking stick.”You can all leave.” The villagers all looked at each other and then turned around. The Tiger-skinned young man glared at Xu Cheng and said,””You’d better not mess around. ” Then, they left one after another. At the top of the waterfall, when only the village chief and Xu Cheng were left, the village chief said,””Thirty years ago, I had a nickname called Xu banxian. Most of these people didn’t know me, or perhaps they had already forgotten it. There were too few people who remembered this ident.i.ty. Perhaps it was a secret code. Only your father knew this nickname.” Xu Cheng let out a sigh of relief.”That’s good. Otherwise, I would have died here.” The village chief looked at Xu Cheng seriously and said with a bit of emotion,””To be honest, I’m surprised that your father asked you to come to me.” Xu Cheng: “then are you a member of the Xu family?” The village chief shook his head.”Not really. However, I owe the Xu family a debt of grat.i.tude. I will repay them in this life.” Xu Cheng’s eyes were a little disappointed.”I already guessed it. The Xu family doesn’t have any relatives.” “Aren’t you here to search for the roots? Perhaps I can tell you some of the history of the Xu family. ” Xu Cheng shook his head.”Forget it. As long as we know if Xu banxian is a relative of the Xu family, nothing else is important.” As he spoke, he turned around to leave. The village chief narrowed his eyes and said,”are you afraid of finding out that your master is a thief?” Why are you protecting him? Back then, he did steal the lost fist, but if I didn’t turn a blind eye, do you think he would have been able to steal it?” “Huh?” Xu Cheng was surprised.”You allowed him to steal?” The village chief nodded.”I have to protect Xu Zhong. I can’t leave this place, or else this place will be discovered and destroyed. So, I can’t take revenge on the four alien races. But Zhang chenfeng has a grudge against the four alien races. I saw that he has outstanding talent, so I wanted to use him.” “Wait, wait a moment, old man.” Xu Cheng waved his hand and said,” You said that the four clans have enmity with our Xu family?” The village chief nodded and looked into the distance with his walking stick. He sighed,””Back then, five families joined forces to destroy the Xu family. Almost everyone in the Xu family was killed. The old master gave me the order to protect the Xu family’s heir Hall. I have been guarding it for decades. I have descendants here, including those who were adopted, and the family is big and prosperous. However, most of them don’t know the history of the Xu family. I only gave them the idea that we are indebted to the Xu family and asked them to protect Xu Zhong with me.” “Five families?” Xu Cheng frowned. “The other one is the Zhang family, your master Zhang chenfeng’s family. After the incident, they might not have split the spoils evenly, so the other four families killed them to silence them. Your master was probably the only survivor, which is why I asked you if he had exterminated the four families. Back then, I knew that no one wanted to exterminate the four clans more than him, so I deliberately let him steal the lost fist, hoping to use him to exterminate those enemies. ” Xu Cheng didn’t feel good at all. After knowing the truth, it was hard for him to accept that his master had such a background story. “Old man, are you sure you’re not mistaken? Maybe he’s old?” Xu Cheng wanted to say something but stopped. “Then let’s talk about your father, shall we?” the village chief chuckled. Xu Cheng’s pupils expanded as he nodded.”He told me to come to you when I’m at my wit’s end. Is there really a way to change the situation?” Then why didn’t he come to find you back then?” “It’s because he disobeyed his ancestors and fell in love with the daughter of his enemy!” Xu Cheng finally reacted, and his eyes widened. The village chief sighed.”He’s the one who didn’t come to me. It’s not that I don’t want to help, but your father is very stubborn. He knows that he has let down his ancestors, so he refused to come back to me for help. I can’t leave this place, but to be honest, if it was the me at that time, I really didn’t have the confidence to fight against the four clans. I advised him that if he was willing to hide, I could protect him, but he insisted on looking for your mother, the daughter of the enemy who exterminated his clan. How could I let her in here? Your father wouldn’t agree either. He knew that he liked that person, so he simply didn’t appear in front of me. Sigh, Speaking of which, I’m also getting old and forgot the most important point. That is, after the descendants of the Xu family are extinct, what’s the use of me guarding this place? After that, I went to look for your father, but I couldn’t find him. After that, I only heard the news of his death, but I didn’t know anything about you. ” “That was because father protected me back then.” Xu Cheng said. The village chief came over and touched Xu Cheng’s face, looking at it carefully.””He looks more and more like your father. He finally did one good thing, and that was to not let the Xu family’s bloodline die out! Hahahaha. ” Xu Cheng couldn’t be happy. When he thought about his master’s dirty deeds, he couldn’t be happy. Especially since the Zhang family was involved in the Xu family’s destruction in the past, their relations.h.i.+p was a little messy. “So you’re saying that I’ve taken the enemy who killed my family as my master?” Xu Cheng bitterly smiled. He didn’t know what to say. This feeling was very contradictory and very f*cking complicated. The village head looked at his frowning and confused expression and said, ” “If your master doesn’t care, what do you care about? ” “What do you mean? ” Xu Cheng raised his head and looked at him. “It’s impossible that Zhang chenfeng doesn’t know your ident.i.ty. Do you really think that the four clans are hunting your father just because of the eloping case? It’s not that there’s no such reason, but the most important thing is that your father’s surname is Xu, and he was the only descendant of the Xu family that they killed, and your mother fell in love with him. The ye family was afraid that the other three families would do the same thing as they did to the Zhang family, so they broke up the relations.h.i.+p between your mother and your father. It wasn’t to give face to the long family, but as a member of the same family, after hearing your father’s name, Zhang chenfeng already knew that you were also a member of the Xu family, so why couldn’t you pa.s.s the lost fist to anyone? And it was transmitted to you? Actually, if you think about it carefully, you know that he’s just repaying a favor for returning the lost fist to its owner.” ” He’s not a bad person, ” the village chief said. ” It’s right to wors.h.i.+p his character. ” Xu Cheng suddenly realized. ” Then there’s really no one else in my Xu family? ” “Aren’t you a human? “the village chief joked. Xu Cheng was speechless, but after he figured it all out, he was relieved. This time, other than the regret of not being able to see the Xu family’s relatives, he also gained something. ” Since you know, I don’t have anything to worry about. Thank you for telling me. I’ll take my leave first, old man. ” Seeing that he was about to leave, the village chief said to him, ” “Don’t you want to take the Xu family’s things? ” Xu Cheng stopped and looked at the village chief,” Gold, silver, jewelry, or money? Let’s just give those old antiques to the villagers. “
