When Murong Xi and others appeared at the door of the backyard, the elders were also a little surprised. They did not expect them to arrive so quickly.
"Elders, I heard that those girls had a fever and their wounds were inflamed?" Murong Xi walked over and asked softly.
"That's right, Saint, an hour after you left, the children began to show symptoms." Elder Bai said excitedly.
Murong Xi knew that these elders were lying, because it was impossible for those girls to have such symptoms. Unless someone poisoned those girls.
Murong Xi asked Feng Mingye and Ji Limo to wait in the front hall, and she followed Elder Bai into the girls' house alone.
Elder Bai turned his head and looked behind him very vigilantly, making sure that no one was following behind him, then he closed the door and said to Murong Xi: "Holy girl, we have something to ask for, that's why we lied to the clan leader and asked you to
Come over here."
Murong Xi turned around and looked at Elder Bai, then walked up to the girls and looked at them specially. After finding that they were really fine, she said to Elder Bai, "Why do you do this?"
"It can be seen that you really feel sorry for these girls. To be honest, we would like to ask you to ask Master Wu Zun whether Saint Silver Moon can return to Fengtian Sect." Elder Bai said with some embarrassment.
"So that's what happened. I'll ask him later. Does the elder have anything else?" Murong Xi asked.
Elder Bai did not expect Murong Xi to agree to his request so quickly, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
Murong Xi continued: "Since this elder asked me to do this for you, it just so happens that I have something to trouble you with."
Elder Bai looked at Murong Xi in confusion and asked, "What can you do to trouble us?"
"Actually, it's not an important matter. I just want you to investigate who is raising the poison. Do you know how cruel this poison is to these girls? If the poison is not cleaned up, they may do it in the future.
I can no longer live with my mother." Murong Xi glanced at Elder Bai and said.
After hearing this, Elder Bai felt very distressed and said, "Then I would like to ask the saint, is there a way to completely clean out the poisonous insects in their bodies?"
"If you want to completely clean out the poison in their bodies, you must find out who is raising the poison. I think it will not be easy for someone who can raise the poison in the clan. I think you, elder, already have a candidate in mind.
Right?" Murong Xi asked.
Elder Bai did not expect why Murong Xi would ask such a question, as if he had already guessed something. In fact, it was only today that they suspected the clan leader. Could it be that the saint in front of them had already guessed it?
"Whatever you want to say, please just say it." Elder Bai said.
"You just said that you can see that I really feel sorry for those girls, but what I see in my eyes is the care and concern of the elders for those children. Even I, an outsider, feel that the children are pitiful, let alone you? In fact,
You are also members of the Fengtian Sect. When you see something happen to your clan members, the Witch Lord feels uncomfortable. I think the saint must have told you about the Witch Lord’s temper. If he wants to kill you, he will not kill you.
I brought them back to Fengtian Sect. But now, some people are still making trouble. The witch master has lost his patience and plans to clean up the house. I hope you can also be mentally prepared." After Murong Xi said a few words, he opened the door and left the house.
Elder Bai was left standing alone in the room for a long time before following him out.
"Xier, are those children okay?" Feng Ming asked after seeing Murong Xi come out at night.
Murong Xi shook his head, winked at Feng Mingye and said, "The wound is indeed somewhat infected and has been treated."
Ji Limo saw that Murong Xi had come out and said, "In that case, let's leave."
"Elders, if there are any problems with those children, you can always ask someone to inform the witch master or go to me directly." After Murong Xi finished speaking with a smile, he pulled Feng Mingye out of the backyard.
Ji Limo smiled meaningfully and followed the two of them out of the backyard.
Elder Bai watched Murong Xi leave the backyard with a solemn expression, and then took a deep breath.
Several elders returned to Elder Bai's house, and they all nervously waited for Old Man Bai to speak.
Seeing that Elder Bai was silent, Elder Yan asked anxiously: "You are talking instead?"
"Tell me what the saint said." Elder Qi said.
"The saint is not simple at all. She seems to have already guessed who is raising the gu." Elder Bai said.
"What do you mean?" Elder Yan asked.
"When the Saint checked the pulses of these girls for the first time, she discovered that some people were using these girls to raise gu. And when the Saint came to check the girls' pulses yesterday, she also reminded me. Today she told me directly that we can
The status and status of those who raise Gu in the clan are not simple." Elder Bai said.
"It can also be said that apart from the clan leader, it may also be one of the four of us. According to what we know about the clan leader before, he does not have the strength to raise so many Gu insects. But after last night, I know that he has it.
This ability." Elder Yan said.
"I mentioned the matter of Silver Moon as soon as I entered. The Saint promised to communicate with the Witch Lord after returning. She was not angry because we tricked her into coming here. On the contrary, even though I told her that the children were fine, she still went
I took a look at the more serious children. I think she will definitely help us, what do you think?" Elder Bai said.
"So is it true that she finally said we can go to her at any time?" Elder Yan said.
"I think it's true. It's better for us to be more vigilant these days." Elder Bai said.
"Are you still worried about the clan leader?" Elder Yan asked.
"What if he doesn't give up and still goes to find trouble for those children? If something happens, won't you regret it later?" Elder Bai asked.
He was really worried about those poor children. Those twelve people had followed the clan leader since they were young, but he didn't expect that the clan leader had no feelings for them at all. In addition, he remembered Murong Xi's words, he didn't have any feelings for all the girls in the clan.
Let it go, if the worms in the girl's body are not completely removed, she may not even be able to be a mother in the future.
"Do you really think the clan leader will do this again?" Elder Yan asked.
"To tell you the truth, the saint has no way to really cure those children now, because it is very troublesome to clean up the poisonous insects in their bodies. If the poisonous insects raised by those children are not cleaned out, their lives may be in danger. Even if the poisonous insects are not removed, their lives will be in danger.
When they mature, the children are still alive, and they lose the qualification to be mothers. Do you think his heart is not cruel enough?" Elder Bai said through gritted teeth.
"Is this what Shengnu told you?" Elder Yan said.
"I saw sincerity in the eyes of the saint. This girl seemed smart and clever at first glance, and even a little cunning. But when she was healing those children, I saw heartache in her eyes. She would not lie to us, because she
There is absolutely no need to treat those children." Elder Bai said.
Finally, the four elders reached an agreement and separated the twelve guards to live with them for easy care.
"How should we explain it if the clan leader asks?" Elder Qi asked.
"These children are all our great-nephews. It is not an exaggeration to take them back to recuperate." Elder Lin said.
"Let's just decide." Elder Yan left after finishing speaking.
Elder Qi also left then. When Elder Lin saw both of them leaving, he said, "I hope Old Man Yan will really listen to you this time."
"Now that he has seen everything that happened last night, he won't be so confused anymore." Elder Bai said.
"If it hadn't been for the clan leader's plan, the four of us would not have had a quarrel. But what I didn't expect was that if the clan leader was just ambitious, he would still be so cruel," Elder Lin said.
Elder Lin could not believe his ears. He believed that Elder Bai did not raise Gu, and Elder Yan, although stubborn, was a responsible person. If it was really him who raised Gu, he would not deny it. And Qi
It's even more impossible for the elder, because Elder Qi's granddaughter was also poisoned.
Therefore, the only person who can raise Gu is the clan leader.
"Let's go and bring everyone back, so we don't have to worry every day." Elder Bai said.
Sure enough, in the evening, the clan leader took Elder Pu to the backyard with him.
"Clan leader." Elder Bai said.
"Did the saint come here today?" the patriarch asked.
He actually didn't know that Murong Xi was coming, let alone that Ji Limo and Feng Mingye were coming with him. Because this was not his village, people from the Fengtian Sect would not tell him any news. In the evening
, he saw that there was no movement yet, so he brought Elder Pu over.
"Yes, the saint and the witch master came in person, and the symptoms of those girls are getting better." Elder Bai said.
"Oh? Did the saint explain why those girls suddenly had high fevers?" the patriarch asked.
"What the saint means is that they are not adapted to the medicine she prescribed." Elder Bai made up a reason casually.
"I see. By the way, are those brothers feeling better? Why don't I go see them?" the clan leader said.
"Head of the Hui clan is like this. The saint came to see them yesterday and said that they were not seriously injured, so we have taken them back to recuperate." Elder Bai said.
"Well, take good care of them." The patriarch said.
"Clan leader, it has been so long. I wonder if you have found Ah Feng?" Elder Bai said.
The clan leader shook his head and said: "There is no news so far, and even the witch master has no clues."
"Is even the Witch Lord looking for Ah Feng?" Elder Bai was really surprised.
"That's right, Wu Zun suspected that the person who followed Xun'er and broke into Fengtian Sect was his second uncle. The elder of Fengtian Sect was hurt by him, and Wu Zun will never let him go." The patriarch sighed.
"What? Ah Feng followed Xun'er to Fengtian Sect?" Elder Bai asked in surprise.
"Well, no one can break into the forbidden area of Fengtian Sect except him, right?" the patriarch said with a sneer.
Elder Bai could tell that the patriarch was perfunctory. The patriarch seemed not to want him to always ask about Afeng. He did not believe that the person who followed Xun'er into Fengtian Sect was Afeng, because if Afeng knew that Xunren broke into Fengtian,
If he teaches, he will definitely be the first to stop him. Therefore, he doesn’t know why the patriarch said this, but he knows that the matter must not be that simple. Now he doesn’t know where the Afeng people are. If he is caught by the witch master, he will still be there.
Well, at least the Witch Lord will give him a chance to explain. If he is caught by the clan leader...
