Chapter 407: Are You Crazy?

Chapter 407: Are You Crazy?

Upon hearing Hua Guangxuan's words, Yu Xiangyang—who was not far away—threw a trump card in excitement. In the end, Gu Li gave him a good thrashing.

She didn't touch anything last night?

The corners of Gu Li's lips twitched as he threw the remaining cards.

On the other hand, Su Huiqing's face didn't change much. She just glanced at the three of them before keeping her dagger solemnly.

...

The next day, Yu Shijin still didn't appear. Other than the chief, almost no one knew where he went.

Seeing that Su Huiqing had a dagger in her hand and seeing how useful Hua Guangxuan's dagger was, Gu Sheng tolerated it for a long time; however, he still didn't tell Hua Guangxuan about Su Huiqing using this dagger to cut an apple the day before.

The chief gathered nearly half the people in the village.

He looked at Su Huiqing, who was standing at the back of the crowd, and then at Fu Meng, who was surrounded by a group of people. In the end, he dared to look at Gu Shan who had always admired Fu Meng.

This time, Gu Shan was not standing beside Fu Meng but behind Su Huiqing.

This scene made the chief's gaze unfathomable.

However, he was a smart person after all. His face didn't change much as he said to everyone, "I called everyone here today because I have an important matter to announce. Everyone knows that my race's secret grounds can't be opened for 19 years. We have also avoided the world for nearly 19 years. And last night, I received news from Mr. Yu ..."

At this point, his voice could not help but tremble. "He told me that the ancestral grounds have already opened."

This sentence caused an uproar in the entire village.

Even Fu Meng raised her head and looked at the tribe leader.

The other villagers were silent for a few seconds before they exploded!

Su Huiqing narrowed her eyes and looked at the head of the family in deep thought.

"Qingqing, what do you think the secret grounds of their race is?" Qu Yan could not help but ask in a low voice. "Is it similar to your training grounds? It actually hasn't been opened for 19 years?"

Yu Xiangyang was also puzzled.

Gu Li, who was standing on Su Huiqing's left, had a cold glint in his eyes. "What secret place of the race? It's just a bunch of people who can't tell right from wrong."

His voice was very low, but almost everyone around heard her.

Qu Yan exclaimed, "Using living people as sacrifices?"

Yu Xiangyang was also stunned. "Hey, wait a minute. Gu Li, how did you know?!"

He reacted very quickly.

Gu Li reacted even faster. When he raised his head again, he returned to his usual aloofness. "This is knowledge from the books."

Yu Xiangyang snapped out of his trance. "Damn, you are the foolish one!"

Hua Guangxuan and Murong Bai looked at each other in shock.

Gu Li ... this surname was rather interesting. Most importantly, he appeared here. Yu Shijin had personally appointed him.

Previously, the two of them didn't understand why Yu Shijin wanted to bring four ordinary people over, but after hearing Gu Li's words, they somewhat understood.

"According to Mr. Yu's reply, if 20 people can enter, their capabilities must not be low. As for outsiders, if they wish to enter, they must have an important contribution to our race." Speaking up to this point, the chief's gaze paused on those outsiders in the village for a while before he waved his hand. "I will announce the final name list in three days."

Everyone took this list very seriously, including Fu Meng.

After the chief made his announcement, he returned to his study room. The list of his preliminary candidates was placed on the table.

He stared at the name list for a long time.

At this moment, Gu Wen knocked on the door and entered. Gu Wen saw the piece of paper that the chief had yet to put away. He exploded. "Chief! This is too unfair! Why can Yu Xiangyang and the rest of the commoners go? Why can't Miss Fu Meng go? Don't you know that Yu Xiangyang injured me yesterday? It's fine if you don't chase them out of our village, but you even want them to go to our ancestral grounds?!"

"Chase them out?" Seeing that Gu Wen saw the list, the chief simply placed it on the table. "You want me to chase them out? Do you dare to do such a thing? Don't you remember how Yu Xiangyang injured you yesterday? Do you have the confidence to chase them out?! Gu Wen, use your brain well. They can't be bothered with you. If they had the intention, would you still be standing here alive?"

Gu Wen stood rooted to the ground, his face darkening. "But what did they do for the race?"

"What contribution? You also know that Gu Sheng and Gu Shan have always respected those people, right? Why do they respect those four ordinary people so much? Why didn't you think about it?!" The chief couldn't be bothered to differentiate anymore. "More importantly, Mr. Yu helped us reopen the territory. Do you think this contribution is enough? If you are not convinced, Mr. Yu will come back in the afternoon. If you are really not convinced, go find him personally and ask for an explanation."

Even though he had never met Yu Shijin in person, Gu Wen had heard of his reputation.

Even Fu Meng admired Yu Shijin.

So to ask Yu Shijin for an explanation, Gu Wen wasn't crazy.
