Chapter 135 Urgent
Chapter 135 Urgent
Anxiety, excitement, hesitation...all kinds of complicated emotions surged into Wenshu's heart like a tide, drowning her completely.
This moment has finally arrived, and this is exactly the ultimate purpose of her coming here!
When the thing she had been seeking really appeared before her eyes, Wen Shu suddenly realized that it also meant taking on a heavy responsibility.
Because the moment she reached out to take the ancestral seal, her fate was closely intertwined with that of the Du family - life and death depended on each other, honor and disgrace were shared.
Wen Shu slowly lowered her head, staring at the ancestral seal lying quietly in the palm of her hand.
Bend your fingers slightly, then slowly close them and hold the ancestral seal tightly in your palm.
Wen Shu raised her head and gazed resolutely at the elders present. She took a deep breath and spoke in a clear and resonant voice, "Elders, please rest assured! Wen Shu swears here that she will not let down the Du family, nor any of the members of the clan!
As long as Du Wenshu is still alive, I will do my utmost to protect the safety and well-being of the Du family!"
Wen Shu's expression was solemn and every word she spoke was powerful and resounding.
She made a heavy promise to all the tribesmen present in such a solemn manner.
The elder stroked his beard and said, "Since the second elder has recognized you, what else can we say? Besides, we are all old and can't stand the hardship anymore.
We are relieved to entrust the important task of the clan to you.
The future belongs to the young people, and my Du family will depend on you young people in the future."
Another chubby elder said, "Yes, it is legitimate to hand it over to you, and we are relieved."
"That's right, that's right, Shu girl!
Don't worry, no matter what you want to do in the future, no matter how far you go, don't worry about money, I have your uncle here!" The happiest person here is Du Suzhian, who saw Wenshu take over the clan seal and started.
His eyes were brighter than the lights beside him, and the look he gave Wen Shu was more energetic than the look he gave him when he looked at a carriage full of money.
Patting his chest, he assured Wen Shu, "Your uncle has nothing but a lot of money."
Du Suan spoke at the right time, interrupting the topic that Du Suzhi was continuing, fearing that this old guy would encourage Wen Shu to do something risky.
Although it's only a matter of time for Wenshu to do this, she's also afraid of Suzhi's instigation.
"Okay, Lao Liu, Wenshu already knows your kindness. You are so old, it's time to be more stable."
A strong warning!
"Second brother, I'm not a child, forget it, forget it..." As he was speaking, he received his warning look, shrank his neck, and immediately stopped the topic.
Looking at Wen Shu, he said, "Shu girl, I have already questioned the leader you brought back earlier, but I couldn't get anything useful out of him.
We are not sure about this, and the rest of the interrogation is up to you."
Thinking about the situation in the village, the last time I went there I was planning to ask Wenshu to go over and take a look so that I would have a better idea of the situation.
I had planned to hand over the affairs there to her when the time was right.
Little did they know that plans could not keep up with the rapid changes. They had just arrived in the village and this happened within one night.
……
Wenshu said, "My dear elders, I am young and not very familiar with the affairs of the clan. Although I still hold the title of clan leader, I am afraid that I will not be able to handle clan affairs in such a short time."
Hearing this, Du Suan became more and more satisfied with Wen Shu, and comforted her, "Girl, don't worry, we old bones can still move for a few more years. As for the affairs of the clan, with us old guys watching over them, there will definitely be no big trouble.
As for matters outside the clan, your future path depends on you!"
Having said that, Du Suan stood up and prepared to go out.
The elders of the clan also stood up upon seeing this...
"Uncle, what are you doing..."
"Girl, I have explained everything I can and done everything I can. There is no point in me staying here," Du Su'an comforted.
"Besides, now that you are in the tribe, it's time for me, an old man, to take a rest."
Wen Shu no longer insisted and watched the elders leave.
Before Du Su left, he pointed to the passage leading into the room and said to Wen Shu, "Girl, I'll come back to see you after this matter is settled."
"You must trust me, your sixth uncle. I will never let you suffer any loss..."
"Let's go..." Before he could finish his words, he was called away by other elders.
.........
Wen Shu looked at the empty house, then turned to the middle-aged man and said, "Lead the way!"
The middle-aged man was a close confidant of Du Suan who had followed him for decades. He was left behind to introduce the situation in the dungeon to Wen Shu.
"Thank you for your hard work from now on," Wen Shu nodded.
"It's not hard. It's my honor to serve the patriarch." After saying that, he took down a torch from the wall and walked ahead to lead the way.
Xuan Yi was one step faster than Jue Yu. He took down the torch on the wall and walked behind to block the road.
…………
When we returned to the tribe, the sun had already climbed above our heads.
When Wen Shu returned, it was lunchtime, so she just had a couple of bites. After lunch, she told Jue Yu beside her, "Go tell the Second Elder that I'm going to the village later today."
After receiving the instructions, Jueyu turned around and went out.
Wen Shu also rushed into the study. After coming out of the study, she saw Jueyu who had returned after receiving the message, and Xuanyi who had been waiting outside.
"Jueyu, go tell the kitchen to prepare some dry food now. Just follow your instructions and remember to eat when you are full and when you are hungry."
I don't know why the girl gave this order, but after coming out of the room where the man surnamed 'Li' was imprisoned, her expression changed drastically, and she didn't even bother to ask about the 'Tan Junwei' who was sent back earlier.
Although he didn't know the inside story, Jueyu naturally didn't dare to neglect the girl's orders.
Just as he stepped out of the door, he was stopped by someone calling him, "Jue Yu!"
"Girl, do you have any other instructions?"
Wen Shu said in a serious tone, "Remember, if we haven't made it back here before 3 p.m., you will go directly to the village."
After that, she turned her gaze to Xuan Yi, who had been waiting on the side, and asked, "Xuan Yi, how many of your men are still around here?"
Xuan Yi quickly clasped his fists and replied, "Miss, there are still eight people here."
Wen Shu nodded and then ordered, "Okay, go tell them that we will set out from the village entrance in half an hour and head to the village together."
"Yes, girl!" Xuan Yi responded and turned around without hesitation to carry out the mission.
At this moment, Wenshu was the only one left in the huge courtyard. She stood there quietly, looking at the empty courtyard, and couldn't help but sigh deeply, muttering to herself, "I hope this is just my imagination..."
