Chapter seven hundred and tenth investment(1/2)

Before the last word of the command could be settled, the old man suddenly moved.

With a wave of his hand, Ji Juan found a hair-like needle flying out.

The flight trajectory of the filiform needle was strange and elusive to the naked eye, until the squad leader who was shouting from the opposite side suddenly let out a scream.

A thin line of blood suddenly spurted out from the captain's neck.

He covered his bleeding neck in panic.

Xuanyuan Liang's patrol members who wanted to arrest people were stunned.

They could not have imagined that the prisoners who had escaped from these cells and had been humiliated at will would dare to resist!

And it’s a sure kill once it’s launched!

If the old man knew that these people thought this way, he would definitely sneer.

Can it be the same now as before?

In the past, I was suppressed to the point where I couldn't see any hope.

Now they have His Highness.

His Highness is a person who can use the magical abilities in legends, so what are they afraid of?

This is someone who is prepared to risk his life.

Sensing the decisive momentum of the old man and others, the expressions of the patrol members changed drastically and they scattered and fled.

"They want to spread the news, stop them!" The third elder shouted urgently with sharp eyes.

As soon as they finished speaking, they immediately threw themselves at the patrol with all their strength.

If someone is seriously injured, three or five people will surround one person.

They had the same goal and the same belief, and even though they were working together for the first time, they showed an amazing tacit understanding.

Too many ants can kill an elephant.

The Third Elder and others had the advantage in numbers, rendering Xuanyuan Liang's patrol team unable to fight back.

After finishing the last person, they smiled at each other and quickly left the scene.

Before leaving, Ji Juan asked the third elder for the jade tablet he had put in his purse and threw it in the corner.

Ji Juan knew that all their elders had one of these jade tablets.

Now that the third elder's jade tablet is lost here, the third elder can only go to other elders to get a jade tablet.

After the third elder learned about Ji Juan's plan, he looked at Ji Juan in amazement, and then gave a wry smile.

It is both a blessing and a misfortune to have such a smart master.

Fortunately, the master can arrange many things without any effort in the future.

Unfortunately, it seems that he will be tied to his master's boat for the rest of his life and will not be able to get off. I'm afraid such a smart master will be discovered if he has a treacherous intention, right?



After they were far away from Xuanyuan Liang's house, the third elder stopped and asked the old man: "Fifth uncle, have you decided where to stay?"

The fifth uncle stared at the third elder with his turbid eyes for a moment. After confirming that the third elder was trustworthy, the expression on his face softened a little.

"What if we want to hide in the third elder's house in the next few days?"

This is a really sharp question.

The third elder laughed when he heard this, understanding that this was the fifth uncle's test against him.

If he hesitates to answer, Fifth Uncle will no longer believe him.

"Fifth uncle can stay here as long as he wants." The third elder answered frankly.

When the fifth uncle looked at the third elder this time, his eyes softened completely.

"You should keep your doghouse for yourself. My old bones still have a place to go." Uncle Wu waved his hand.

Although the third elder is a member of the elders' group, he has never done anything bad in the past.

It's not too late to abandon darkness and embrace light.

The fifth uncle patted the third elder on the shoulder with satisfaction: "The rest of the troublesome matters will be left to you."

After that, he asked Ying Yi: "Do you, the shadow guard, want to follow me, an old man, to recuperate from his injuries?"

Yingyi looked at Ji Juan and saw the unfamiliar look in Ji Juan's eyes. Yingyi's eyes dimmed and he thanked his fifth uncle: "Then please take care of me."

Ying Yi knew very well that all the shadow guards were injured now. Even if they insisted on following the young master, they would not only be unable to help the young master, but would also cause a burden to the young master.

After all, they still have to muddy the waters. If they appear next to the young master now, wouldn't they tell everyone that it was the young master who rescued them from Xuanyuan Liang's mansion?

The group of people quietly dispersed.

It's time to go to the meeting with the elders.

Those who should go back to the small courtyard should go back to the small courtyard.

Those who should recuperate should recuperate.

They left with ease, because they knew that when they met again, it would be time to prepare for a full-scale counterattack!



The emergency elder meeting that the third elder had anticipated finally took place.

All the elders sat down around a large round table, and everyone was silent.

Most of the people present were still shocked by the death of the second elder.

The great elder's face was gloomy, and his sharp eyes swept over the faces of all the elders present.

"I asked everyone to come here today just to talk about the death of the second elder. With the second elder's medical ability, I believe I can count the number of poisons that could kill him with two hands, right?"

The elders present were shocked.

The second elder looked at his nose with his eyes, his nose at his heart, and he sneered from the bottom of his heart.

He believed that if this potential murderer who could kill the second elder had not given the first elder a sense of threat, why would the first elder be so eager to find out the murderer today?

As expected, the headstrong and arrogant elder believed that the murderer was from the elder group.

Because the great elders do not believe that anyone has stronger medical abilities than them.

The elders began to whisper, some expressed their innocence, and some tried to test the whereabouts of those around them throughout the day.

The third elder knew that a seed called doubt had been quietly planted in the hearts of the elders.

He raised his head and said aloud: "I suggest that everyone write down the person they suspect on a small piece of paper and put it anonymously into the box to find out the person hiding the traitor?"

All the elders looked at each other in confusion, not knowing whether this method was good or not. In the end, they agreed thinking that since it was something they had never done, they should be fine.

Some things I feel are inappropriate, but I can’t explain why.

If they dared to come out and stop this voting behavior at this time, wouldn't it be suspicious in the eyes of others?

Hehe, this person jumped out to stop him in such a hurry, is there something wrong with him?

It can be said that the third elder played chess in seconds.

Everyone, willing or not, wrote down the names of the suspected elders on the slips of paper.

He even wrote down the names of elders who disagreed with him.

After everyone has written their names and put them in the box.

The third elder took the initiative to stand up and vote.

In order to show that he was not cheating, he simply posted the note with his name on the board.

"The seventh elder has one vote." The third elder glanced at the strip, then glanced at the surprised and angry seventh elder, and calmly posted the strip.

"The fifth elder has one vote." The third elder glanced at the note and recognized the person who wrote the note, who should be the sixth elder.

He believed that once the note was posted, most people present would recognize the Sixth Elder's handwriting.

Who makes the Sixth Elder like to draw a little tail in the last stroke of his writing?

Sure enough, as soon as the note was posted, everyone present looked at the Sixth Elder in unison.

Sixth Elder:......

His face became very ugly.

Isn’t it anonymous? What is the difference between this and registered?

The eyes of the fifth elder who was thrown out by the sixth elder were almost bulging with anger, and he gasped and stared at the sixth elder.

Regardless of the undercurrents among the elders at the round table, the three elders sang happily.

He took out another note.

When he unfolded it, it clearly read: Great Elder!

The third elder let out a sigh in his heart and praised him as a brave man!
