Chapter 3961 A Past Event
"There are so many things you don't believe. To be honest, I met their members before, otherwise I wouldn't know the name of this organization, let alone ask you to help me investigate."
Xiao Yi thought that the third elder was old and had experienced a lot. In addition, there were many books in the Dawn Villa, which would record some strange things. Maybe some clues would be found here.
Hearing Xiao Yi say this, it was indeed similar to what the third elder thought. If Xiao Yi hadn't met these people in person, he would definitely not investigate the inside information here. Things about this ninja group are really rare.
"Oh? It seems that you really met these people. The information about the ninja group is actually more accurate. It is a ninja organization that exists in an island country. Like the Dawn Villa, every member of them has special skills."
The third elder was not surprised by the news. They were able to establish the Dawn Villa, and there could be other people in the world who could establish corresponding forces.
He was just curious about why this ninja organization had always existed, but there was no sign of any activity, giving people the feeling that it didn't exist, but he also believed what Xiao Yi said.
Just as the name of this organization, ninja... Ninja is the first priority, so they naturally won't show up easily, but for some reason, Xiao Yi encountered them this time.
"The records above by the third elder are just a passing mention, and there are no useful clues."
Xiao Yi put down these books, which were only a few words, and there was no record of the specific situation of this organization, which made Xiao Yi a little disappointed.
"These are the only books I can find relevant records. Although they are not of great use, I have heard a rumor about your Xiao clan. I wonder if you are interested in listening to it."
"Not interested!"
As soon as the third elder finished speaking, Xiao Yi said decisively that he didn't care about any news related to the Xiao clan.
Such an attitude made the third elder a little annoyed. Xiao Yi answered too quickly. He hadn't finished speaking yet, and the next point was the key point.
"Can't you answer more slowly? What I want to tell you is that the Xiao clan once fought a war with this ninja organization."
Hearing this, Xiao Yi immediately became interested and turned around to look at the third elder. The third elder had a helpless expression on his face. It seemed that the hatred between Xiao Yi and the Xiao clan could not be resolved with just one or two words.
With such an identity and Xiao Yi's talent, if he could return to the Xiao clan, he would definitely be treated with respect. It's a pity that not only Xiao Huaili of the Xiao clan, but even Xiao Yi himself would not do so.
"This sounds very fresh. Third elder, please tell me carefully. The Xiao clan actually fought a war with this organization. What's going on?"
"You, why do you always feel so disgusted when you hear the word Xiao clan?"
The third elder sighed. Xiao Yi didn't say anything, but the third elder could understand his mood, so he didn't talk too much here and told Xiao Yi what he knew.
This incident happened more than 60 years ago. At that time, the third elder was still a young man. He was just an ordinary member of Poxiao Villa, and Poxiao Villa was not as big as it is today.
The owner of the villa is Ji Jiangyue's father. There is one thing that needs to be emphasized, that is, the successor of Poxiao Villa has always been the owner of the villa, who selects the best one from many descendants.
Once the heir is selected, the other descendants must leave here to make a living. This is the rule. This rule was set by the ancestors and no one can violate it, not even the owner of the villa.
It was only later that Ji Jiangyue's generation, due to the physical condition of the old owner, left the two sisters and the position to be inherited by women. If things went well, Xiao Yi's father would become Ji Jiangyue's husband.
If the two people give birth to a boy, he must take Ji Jiangyue's surname, that is, to keep the heir of the villa. The third elder guessed that it might be because of this condition that touched the dignity of the Xiao family, and the two did not get together at the beginning.
Of course, this is also the third elder's own guess. According to Ji Jiangyue, Xiao Huaiyi is a man of friendship and will not change because of this incident, and will not let her down for her whole life.
"At that time, your grandfather was just a teenager. The ninja group you mentioned appeared somewhere in China, as if they were carrying out some secret mission."
The ninja group dispatched more than 100 people to a village that had been abandoned for many years, and asked people nearby for information. In order to get valuable clues, they controlled the local villagers.
The villagers did not know what these outsiders were talking about. Those who knew answered them, and those who did not know certainly could not say anything. So these ninjas felt that asking these people had reached this level, and there would be no gain from asking further.
On a dark night, they were so crazy that they raised their butcher knives to ordinary villagers. No one survived, including men, women, young and old, and more than 300 people in the village. All died under the butcher's knife.
The bloodbath village was set on fire, covering up all the crimes. The ninjas seemed to have found valuable clues. Everyone entered a deep mountain, and it seemed that there was a treasure they cared about in the deep mountain.
"These ninjas dug through the soil and rocks. It turned out that there was a big tomb in the deep mountains. There were things they cared about in the big tomb. They did such bloody things just to find the location of this big tomb."
"This..."
Xiao Yi frowned. He didn't know whether the information the third elder said was true or false, but one thing was certain. He was very curious.
"Are the so-called ninjas just some tomb robbers?"
"They can't be compared with ordinary tomb robbers. Ordinary tomb robbers are just to explore valuable things in the cemetery. It is said that these people seem to be looking for an ancient book."
"Ancient book? What kind of book can have such value that it is worth them traveling across the ocean and spending so much effort to find it."
The third elder shook his head. He knew limited information and the hidden truth of this matter was not so clear.
"You ask me, who should I ask? I don't know what book they were looking for. I only know that they didn't succeed."
The signs of ninja activities were discovered by the Xiao clan's people who stayed in China. After the news was reported to the Xiao clan, the Xiao clan responded immediately.
Ten young masters were sent to deal with the matter, led by Xiao Yi's grandfather Xiao Qian, who was only sixteen years old at the time.
