When Ji Limo spoke, he carefully observed the expressions of the patriarch and Elder Pu. There was nothing strange about the expressions of the patriarch, but there was a fierce look in Elder Pu's eyes. This surprised Ji Limo, after all, Elder Pu's temperament
She looks very gentle, how come she has such an expression?
Murong Xi also noticed Elder Pu's expression. She found that Elder Pu seemed to be controlled by someone. She and Ji Limo looked at each other, and Ji Limo said, "Didn't you hear what I said clearly?"
The clan leader reacted quickly and said: "Of course I heard what the witch master said clearly, but we were a little surprised and feel sorry for the villagers."
Elder Pu seemed to have come back to his senses and said sadly: "Something happened to the villagers? Master Wu Zun, where is my second uncle? Is there still no clue?"
Ji Limo shrugged and said, "There is not a single living person in the village."
Elder Pu's eyes once again flashed with a hint of cunning, and soon returned to normal, making Ji Limo even more unpredictable.
Murong Xi patted Ji Limo's shoulder, walked to Elder Pu's side, took Elder Pu's hand and said softly: "Elder Pu, I know you are anxious, but there is indeed no figure of your second uncle in the village. Unless...
…We will not give up and will continue to search.”
Elder Pu nodded and said, "Everyone in the village is gone. Could it be related to my second uncle?"
"Elder Pu doesn't believe you that my second uncle would do such a thing? Why did he suddenly change his mind?" Murong Xi asked.
"I suspected that my second uncle was in the village before, but I didn't expect that the people in the village were gone. The death of the villagers may have something to do with my second uncle's inability to escape," Elder Pu said.
"You don't have to worry about these anymore. Everything will come to light when we find your second uncle. Chief, I think you should take Elder Pu back first. I think she still needs a good rest," Murong Xi said.
"Yes." Seeing that Elder Pu wanted to say something else, the patriarch quickly agreed and pulled Elder Pu out of the front hall.
Ji Limo looked at the two people leaving and asked, "Xier, is something wrong with her?"
Murong Xi knew that Ji Limo was referring to Elder Pu, so he nodded and said, "She was bewitched."
"Isn't there a poisonous insect in her body?" Ji Limo asked.
"Yes, those poisonous insects are still there, but they are not active. I think it was to poison her and then control those poisonous insects. Therefore, Elder Pu looks very strange." Murong Xi said.
"The clan leader has become normal. She seems to have become the clan leader." Ji Limo said.
"You are right, Elder Pu is controlled by the Gu, and her every move does not come from her heart." Murong Xi said.
"Things are getting more and more interesting. This patriarch can actually do so many things under our noses. In less than an hour, he actually temporarily suppressed the poison in Elder Pu's body, and once again
He poisoned her." Ji Limo said with a smile.
"I think he doesn't seem to take us seriously. He doesn't seem to be worried at all." Murong Xi said.
"So, we still need to hurry up and find our second uncle, no matter whether we are dead or alive." Ji Limo said coldly.
He knew that this second uncle was probably murdered, but he still believed that this man was at least still alive.
"I'll leave it to you to find Elder Pu's second uncle. I'll go up to the mountain tomorrow." Murong Xi said.
"You want to collect medicine?" Ji Limo asked.
"Yes, if you want to cure Elder Pu's poison, you need a kind of medicinal herb." Murong Xi said.
"Let me go, you need to take good care of the baby now." Ji Limo pointed at Murong Xi's belly and said.
"Only I can find that kind of herbal medicine. Don't worry, Aye will accompany me up the mountain." Murong Xi said.
"Who promised you that you can go up the mountain to collect medicine?" Feng Mingye objected.
"As long as you stay with me, I believe there will be no problem." Murong Xi said, pulling Feng Mingye's sleeve.
Feng Mingye was very helpless. He knew that he could not stop Murong Xi's decision, so he could only agree to her.
Early the next morning, Murong Xi got up early, washed up, and was having breakfast. Feng Mingye sat aside and said, "Even if you go to the mountains to collect medicine, you don't have to get up so early, right?"
Feng Mingye felt a little distressed because she knew that Murong Xi always loved to sleep. In order to go up the mountain to collect medicine, she actually got up so early.
"This medicine can't be found after noon. Let's go." Murong Xi wiped his mouth and said.
The two people set off with bamboo baskets on their backs. They started from the back hall of Fengtian Sect and went up the back mountain of Fengtian Sect.
"Xier, be careful." Feng Mingye said while supporting Murong Xi.
The two people soon descended to the mountainside, where there was a mountain spring flowing down from the mountain wall. Murong Xi walked over and carefully walked to the edge of the mountain spring with a bamboo knife. Feng Mingye took a closer look and saw that there was a mountain spring on the edge of the mountain.
Several buds grew.
Murong Xi moved very quickly, using a bamboo knife to remove the buds and threw them into Feng Mingye's bamboo basket.
"Xier, is this the herb you want to pick?" Feng Mingye asked doubtfully.
"No, these buds are also useful." After Murong Xi finished speaking, he led Feng Mingye around to look for something.
"Xi'er, why don't we go somewhere else and take a look. Maybe we don't have the herbs you want here." Feng Mingye said.
"No, that kind of thing is nearby, let's look for it again," Murong Xi said.
Feng Mingye asked: "Xier, remember we only went to the back mountain once last time. How did you know that the medicinal materials are here?"
"These buds are closely related to the herbal medicine I want, so that herbal medicine must be near here." Murong Xi said.
Only then did Feng Mingye understand why Murong Xi was always searching around here, so he didn't say anything anymore but accompanied Murong Xi to search everywhere.
Soon, Murong Xi discovered something on the mountain wall on the other side. She stopped and Feng Mingye looked at the mountain wall and discovered that a red flower had grown on the mountain wall.
It looks very enchanting, and the stamens are actually red and black.
Feng Mingye knew at a glance that this flower was not simple, so she pulled Murong Xi and asked: "This is the herb you want to pick? This flower looks more terrifying than Mei Yan, are you sure you want to pick it back?"
?”
"You don't need to use your hands to pick this flower. Didn't I bring a bamboo knife? Don't worry, I will be more careful." Murong Xi said with a smile.
After approaching the flower, Feng Mingye clearly saw that the flower had changed. The flower bloomed even more enchantingly than before. Feng Mingye took Murong Xi and took a step back. If he had come here alone, he would naturally
I wasn't afraid, but I was too worried about Murong Xi, so I was so careful.
Murong Xi asked him to be calm and asked him to take the buds over. Murong Xi pricked Feng Mingye's finger with a silver needle, put a drop of blood on the buds, and then threw the buds away.
Inside the petals. The petals seem to be alive, wrapping the buds in the flower.
Feng Mingye was dumbfounded. This flower actually ate its young shoots?
"Xier, are these flowers alive?" Feng Mingye asked after coming back to her senses.
"
This flower was originally white. The reason why it became so enchanting is because the flower itself is poisonous. After inhaling the poison of the flower, you will have hallucinations and walk past. There are thorns in the stamens, and small animals or people passing by will be stung.
After being injured, it will be poisoned. The wound will bleed. After the flower sucks the blood, the color of the petals will become darker and darker. And its nemesis is within a hundred steps, which is the freshly picked buds.
There is a bloody smell on the buds, so it must have been fooled. So, the flowers are no longer poisonous." After Murong Xi finished speaking, he put on silk gloves, picked the flowers and threw them into his bamboo basket.
"Are you going to use this flower to fight poison with poison?" Feng Mingye asked.
"Aye is really smart, that's exactly what I planned." Murong Xi said with a smile.
"Can we go back?" Feng Mingye asked.
"I remember when I came here last time, there should be a cave nearby. Let's go and have a look." Murong Xi said.
"Going to the cave? Have you forgotten that the last time we passed by, the cave was full of poison?" Feng Mingye said.
"I need the poison in the cave, come with me." Murong Xi pulled Feng Mingye and continued to walk forward.
Sure enough, there was a cave not far away. The two people came to the door of the cave and found that there was a dark wind inside.
"Xier, there is actually wind here. Is there a vent on the other side of the cave?" Feng Mingye asked in surprise.
Because the last time I passed by, the cave had no ventilation at all.
Murong Xi smelled the smell inside, and then said, "Would you know if you go in and take a look?"
Murong Xi took out the Night Pearl, and they could clearly see the situation in the cave. The cave was a little damp, and the more they walked inside, the colder they felt. There were some strange grasses growing on the walls of the cave, because those
The grass is all red.
"Xier, these grasses are all red. Could it be that they are also blood-sucking grasses?" Feng Mingye asked.
Murong Xi shook his head and expressed that he did not know. There were no herbs in the cave that he wanted. Murong Xi discovered that this cave did not seem to be the cave he passed by last time.
The space in the cave was not very large, and the smell inside was also very unpleasant. Murong Xi took Feng Mingye and quickly left the cave, standing outside and taking a deep breath.
"Drink some water." Feng Mingye handed Murong Xi the kettle and then rubbed it along Murong Xi's back.
Murong Xi took a sip of water and said, "There is a strong smell of blood in here. I think you are right. There is something wrong with the grass. Moreover, this cave is not the cave we entered before."
"This mountain is as mysterious as the Fengtian Sect." Feng Mingye said.
"I heard that there are precious medicinal herbs everywhere on this mountain. It is only because of Fengtian Sect that those who collect herbs dare not go up the mountain to collect herbs." Murong Xi said.
"But what's going on with this cave that appeared for no reason?" Feng Mingye asked.
"I don't know. I have no intention of breaking in now. Forget it, let's look for the cave from before." Murong Xi said.
If Murong Xi was not pregnant, she would definitely go in and see what was inside. Moreover, she was also curious about what was outside the vent. But now that she was pregnant, she naturally did not dare to do so.
After the two people left the cave entrance, they circled around again and found the cave they had visited last time. They collected a lot of herbs in the cave, which should be poison. Murong Xi felt that the clan leader would not be easy to deal with.
Prepare some poison for emergencies. She could feel that this patriarch was really cunning.
