Chapter 10 I’m getting old and confused

"That's good, that's good!"

Chen Xingzhen murmured, but this made the young man who came to report the news stunned.

Why is it that when a clan member is injured, the clan leader is still saying yes? If it weren't for the fact that he was the clan leader, he would have suspected that the person who said this was a spy sent by other clans.

"Clan leader, the clan's food and dried meat supplies are almost gone!"

At this time, another young man came to report to Chen Xingzhen.

"How many days can I last?"

"Probably less than a day, and almost all the tribesmen who went out were attacked by the Li family, and they lost all their gains."

After hearing this, Chen Xingzhen immediately understood the Li family's conspiracy. The ancestor Fuyin was still there. In order to avoid damage, the Li family did not dare to be forceful, so they resorted to this method. This was to trap the Chen family inside. ah.

This can be regarded as a conspiracy, and the Chen family has no way to fight back.

"good!"

"What a trick!"

Chen Xingzhen sighed with emotion.

The two people who came to report were also in low spirits and understood the key.

But Chen Xingzhen didn't care. The situation had already gotten so bad. No matter how bad it got, it couldn't get much worse. He immediately waved his hands and said to the two of them:

"Let everyone in the family gather outside the ancestral hall. I have something to say. Those injured clan members should also come here!"

"Yes, patriarch!"

After hearing the order, the two people immediately left!

However, when they left, both of them saw a trace of doubt in each other's eyes.

"Have you noticed that the patriarch seems to be in good spirits?"

The two said in unison, and then they were stunned. It seemed that it was not their imagination.

The two people who didn't know the reason didn't say any more, but went to inform other tribesmen.

…

In the ancestral hall, Ji Yang stood quietly in a corner of the ancestral hall, bored.

After practicing last night, his vitality now reached 4.1. If he hadn't used a Reversal Pill, his vitality should have been 4.2.

This translates into exactly 0.1 vitality in half an hour.

It's just a pity that he can't operate the technique during the day.

If he had chosen to absorb the essence of the sun at that time, the result might have been different, but then he would not be able to practice at night, but the result would still be the same.

I hope that I can encounter the same choice again in the next deduction, but Ji Yang feels that it is a bit difficult.

I don’t know when the Chen family will perform sacrifices next time. I just showed my supernatural power yesterday, so I think it will be soon.

However, thinking about the current predicament of the Chen family, this sacrifice does not seem to be that easy.

Just as Ji Yang was enjoying the rising sun, the door of the ancestral hall was slowly opened again.

Ji Yang looked intently, and as expected, the person coming was the clan leader Chen Xingzhen.

After Chen Xingzhen closed the door of the ancestral hall, he looked at the sacred tree in the ancestral hall.

Although the sacred tree no longer glows at night, the improvement in his condition cannot be faked.

Now that the family situation is getting increasingly serious, facing the Li family's actions, Chen Xingzhen already has a plan in mind, but this plan requires communicating with the sacred tree first.

Without the healing power of the sacred tree, his plan would be just a castle in the air.

Chen Xingzhen, who knew this, immediately revealed his plan.

After hearing Chen Xingzhen's story, Ji Yang couldn't help but cast his invisible gaze at the old man who was over Liujia in front of him. It seemed that Chen Xingzhen had bet all the family's retreat on himself.

But he didn't seem to have much choice.

Now he lives and dies with the Chen family. At least for now, he cannot get out of the predicament on his own.

After talking about the plan, Chen Xingzhen turned his expectant eyes to Ji Yang.

He believed that the sacred tree had a spirit and would definitely respond to him.

Under Chen Xingzhen's gaze, the branches of the sacred tree swayed slightly.

Seeing this scene, Chen Xingzhen looked grateful and bowed again.

At this time, there were also noisy discussions from many people outside the ancestral hall, as if someone was arguing about something.

After paying his respects, Chen Xingzhen frowned slightly and then walked outside the ancestral hall.

"What's going on?"

Chen Xingzhen, who walked out of the ancestral hall, looked at the assembled tribesmen and asked Chen Qingyu in front of him.

Chen Qingyu said angrily:

"Clan leader, recently many clan members who went out to prepare for hunting have been attacked by the Li family. Now there is not much food left in the clan. If this continues, the family will not be able to survive for long."

"I already know this!"

Chen Xingzhen sighed and replied, but Chen Qingyu continued to speak:

"Clan leader, in my opinion, it is better to gather together and go hunting while the clansmen still have fighting strength. Otherwise, after a while, the clansmen will be short of energy and blood, and they will not have enough to eat. By then, the fighting strength will be reduced, and we will have no chance at all!"

After Chen Qingyu finished speaking, many people behind him nodded slightly, thinking this idea was a good one.

At this time, a middle-aged man with a slightly pale face stood up from the crowd and objected:

"This is inappropriate!"

Everyone looked immediately and saw that the person speaking was none other than Chen Tianjing, a blood coagulation warrior in the family. Upon closer inspection, their appearance was somewhat similar to that of Chen Qinghe, but he looked much older.

Seeing everyone watching, Chen Tianjing sighed and then continued:

"Now the reason why the Li family has not come to attack the family is because the ancestors are still in the ancestral hall. If they were to gather together for hunting, the ancestors would not be able to take them out. With the current strength of the family, they are no match for the Li family. This It will make the family’s situation even more difficult!”

Some of the clan members below nodded again.

Chen Qingyu frowned slightly:

"But Uncle San, if we don't try, won't we have no chance at all?"

"This method is still too risky. If there is a mistake, the family may..."

...

The two sides argued endlessly, each with their own opinions.

Behind the crowd, Chen Qinghe and Chen Qingmeng stood aside. After hearing the argument of the clan members, Chen Qinghe couldn't help but whispered:

"I think my father is really old and confused!"

"Brother Qingyu's idea is so good, Qingmeng, don't you think so?"

Chen Qingmeng scratched his head:

"Ah?"

...

"Okay!"

"I'll say a few words!"

As Chen Xingzhen spoke, the other clan members instantly quieted down.

"There is not much food left in the family, so we must go out hunting! And his Li family sent people to guard various places in the mass grave mountain to attack us, so if we want to find a way out, we need to find another way and go out from a place where the Li family can't see us!"

After Chen Xingzhen finished speaking, everyone present raised questions.

His Chen family is built on the ground, and everyone can't fly. How can they avoid the guards of the Li family and go to the mass grave mountain to hunt?

"Then only the family secret passage can do it!"

As one person blurted out the words, everyone looked at the speaker, and at this time he realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"No!"

"The family secret passage is the last escape route for some clan members, and it cannot be exposed!"

"Yes, once the family secret passage is discovered by the Li family, the family will have no way out!"

The two who were arguing originally stood on the same front in an instant after hearing this proposal.

"I'm just talking!"

The person who spoke whispered.

But everyone now understood that according to what the clan leader said, it seemed that this was the only way.

"This is my idea!"

When everyone was silent, Chen Xingzhen slowly spoke.

The two who were just opposing showed astonishment on their faces after hearing it.

Due to the previous changes in the sacred tree and other things, the younger generation of the clan has not yet moved out, but now the clan leader said that he would let the clan members go out to hunt through the secret passage.

If the secret passage is discovered by the Li family and blocked in advance, the family's retreat will be completely cut off.

The most important thing is that the former and the latter proposals were made by the clan leader himself, which made it difficult for the two to accept for a while, and they didn't understand what Chen Xingzhen was thinking.

Even if it was said by the clan leader, Chen Qingyu still couldn't help but refute at this time:

"But, clan leader..."
