I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 766 PUA from the elders.

The southernmost part of Xing Dynasty.

Zhuming Town.

This can be regarded as a real gathering place for farmers.

The people in the town are all farmers.

On the South China Sea, a small fishing boat slowly docked at the shore.

"Aqiu!"

"That's strange, could it be that I have caught a cold?"

A young girl wearing a straw raincoat and carrying a fish basket on her back jumped off the boat.

The girl has delicate features and a healthy wheat-colored skin.

Behind him were two middle-aged women around 40 years old, who worked together to carry the fully loaded fishing nets off the boat.

A half-grown girl followed behind, holding the fishing net with both hands, and looked like she wanted to help.

However, the man was lifted into the air by the fishing net, and his two short legs were still flapping desperately.

"Mom, I'm back. Guess what I caught today?"

Xu Doudou pushed the door open in a hurry and hung his raincoat at the door.

Seeing that his parents were not in the main house, he turned and ran to the backyard.

"mother?"

Outside the yard, Xu Doudou looked up and called out.

Then, Xu's mother came out of the house. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Xu's father in the house say,

"Let her in. She's not young anymore."

Mother Xu hesitated for a moment, then nodded in response.

"Doudou, put the things in the yard. Your father wants to talk to you."

In the room, Father Xu closed the wooden box in his hand, and when he saw Xu Doudou coming in, he immediately said,

"Kneel down."

???

Xu Doudou was a little confused, but seeing the expression on Xu's father's face, he knelt down obediently and pinched his ears with both hands.

"Dad, it was Xiao Hei who hid on the boat. We only found him after we went out to sea. It really has nothing to do with my daughter."

Seeing his daughter admitting her mistake so skillfully, Father Xu swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Mother Xu closed her eyes, as if she was feeling a little dizzy. She walked over to Xu Doudou and kicked her, saying unhappily,

"Shut up and listen to your father."

"Oh!"

Xu Doudou responded woodenly, thinking that he hadn't made any mistakes recently.

Could it be that my parents found out that I was planning to sneak away to the capital to find Li Mu?

It shouldn’t be.

Father Xu took a deep breath, tried to put his expression in order, and then said seriously,

"The remains of the sacred tree that my farm family has been searching for for hundreds of years have now been found."

"Last night, I worked together with my fellow apprentices to open up the clan land, and received the mission entrusted to me by our ancestors..."

"Dad, you're leaving again!"

Xu Doudou raised his head suddenly, and his forehead was wrinkled into the shape of the Chinese character "川".

"Doudou, we are born to be farmers..."

Xu's mother spoke at the right time.

Xu Doudou pouted, and her voice was already slightly tearful.

"Didn't you say that you would never leave me?"

"I hate you!"

Xu Doudou bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, turned around and ran out of the house.

"Beanie!"

"Forget it, let her be."

Mother Xu tried to chase after him, but Father Xu stopped her and shook his head, saying,

"I have discussed with my fellow apprentices that the eight of us will split into two groups."

"There is more than one broken branch of the holy tree. From today on, the four of us will continue to look for the broken branches. The four of us will try every possible way to find a way to pass through the wasteland. Mother, I hope you..."

"You don't have to say it. I'll go wherever you go. Do you want to separate from me?"

Mother Xu's eyes widened, and she stepped forward and grabbed Father Xu's ear.

Father Xu sighed and looked up at Mother Xu.

"For a hundred years, no one has ever entered that area. I was afraid..."

"What are you afraid of! If you dare to abandon me, I will take Doudou to the capital to enjoy life!"

"What farmer's mission? I don't care!"

Mother Xu pursed her lips, with an unrelieved sadness in her eyes.

At this time, the door was pushed open again, and Xu Doudou strode in with a bag that had already been packed on his back.

The tears in the corners of his eyes had not yet dried, but his tone was very firm.

"Wherever you go, I will go. I don't want to be separated from my father and mother."

"Doudou..."

Xu's mother somewhat embarrassedly let go of the hand that was holding Xu's father's ear. Just as she was about to speak, Xu's father interrupted her and said,

"Nonsense! You have forgotten the rules set by our ancestors!"

The ancestors of the farming family obviously knew that this mission could not be accomplished in one generation.

Therefore, it was stipulated long ago that those without offspring must leave offspring first, otherwise they would not be allowed to participate in the mission. Those who violated the regulations would be expelled from the farm.

"But……"

Xu Doudou was speechless. Of course she knew the rules.

If not for this, she would not have planned to offer herself to Li Mu when she met him for the second time.

The mother and daughter of the Xu family are absolute obsessives about looks.

Otherwise, Xu's mother would not have resolutely chosen the junior brother who looked like a "little puppy" and gave up the senior brother who had better talents.

Influenced by her mother, Xu Doudou naturally inherited her mother's high standards for appearance.

For Li Mu, it could be said that he was attracted by her beauty at the beginning.

Not only did she support him, but she was also concerned about his identity and background.

On the one hand, we can use the Prince of Yan's Mansion to promote the grains and spices that our uncles and aunts have found from overseas.

The next step is to find a man who suits your eyes and leave children to follow your parents.

Xu Doudou didn't know when she had forgotten all these things.

If Father Xu hadn't mentioned it today, she would still be dreaming of competing for favor in the backyard of Linglong Waterside for the rest of her life.

"This is in your hands from today on. Don't forget that you are a farmer."

Father Xu took out a roll of leather from his arms and handed it to Xu Doudou.

"This is the geomancy map of Kyushu completed by our ancestors, as well as... the map outside Kyushu. Please keep it."

"Remember, don't try to be too aggressive in everything. Only by passing on the torch can you succeed."

Xu Doudou took the leather stiffly and opened it subconsciously.

The Kyushu geomancy map was far more detailed than the one she had seen at Donglai Pass, especially regarding the distribution of the islands in the sea.

"This is... Rongyi?"

Xu Doudou's pupils contracted and he looked up at Father Xu.

Father Xu nodded and said disdainfully,

"It's just a small barbarian country. The places marked with cinnabar are all explored by my ancestors of the farming family. Don't worry about it."

Xu Doudou vaguely remembered that Li Mu seemed to be looking for a way to reach the island country of Rongyi, but she didn't expect that the ancestors of the Nong family had already been there.

She suppressed the urge to ask how to get to the island, and opened another piece of leather, frowning.

On the map, there was only a thumb-sized area with the word "Jiuzhou" written on it.

Xu Doudou made a heart shape with her right fingers and pointed to the Kyushu area.

Then open your palms...

One.

two.

A full two and a half palms away, you can see the words "Saint Sambanna" written on it.

Xu Doudou looked up at Xu's father blankly, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

Father Xu's eyes showed tenderness. He nodded at Xu Doudou and said softly,

"Offering the remaining branches of the sacred tree to Baina will ensure the eternal peace of our Nine Provinces. Now you understand why your father doesn't let you act hastily."

"Perhaps it's not just me, but you, and even your descendants. Whether they can leave Kyushu is still unknown."

Father Xu stood up, helped Xu Doudou up, patted her shoulder and said,

"Remember, don't let this inheritance be cut off. This is what you should do most now."

"My son, can I entrust this important task to you?"

"answer me!"

At the same time, in several households in Zhuming Town.

The same rhetoric was repeated one after another.

The elders of the eight people in the farming family have all selected younger generations who are worthy of trust.

Using almost the same rhetoric, they gave almost identical leather maps.

Their descendants were all given the same title, the Holy Son or Holy Daughter of the Farmers.
