When Murong Xi saw Elder Zheng's appearance, he said unbearably: "Elder Zheng, I think I should tell you that although Elder Xu has not admitted it, I suspect that the person who killed your third junior brother should be Elder Xu.
"
"What did you say?" Elder Zheng looked at Murong Xi in shock.
Murong Xi said: "Elder Xu probably killed the third junior brother to silence him to show his loyalty. Elder Xu was willing to work for him. Do you think he still needs to keep the third junior brother? Besides, he should have you in his hands.
Evidence of the transaction with the mysterious man, so for him, there is no need for the third junior brother to stay."
Elder Zheng's eyes were red. He didn't expect Elder Xu to act so realistically with him over the years. Even during the interrogation that day, he refused to admit that he killed the third junior brother. He originally believed that Elder Xu would not be so cruel.
But he didn't expect that Murong Xi's words would make him really disappointed with Elder Xu.
"It's me, it's me who harmed the third junior brother. At first, I reminded the third junior brother to be careful about Elder Xu, but for the sake of money, I ignored Elder Xu's character. I didn't expect that because of my negligence towards Elder Xu, I would harm him.
Third Junior Brother." The elder said coldly.
"Elder Zheng, there is no need to be sad. This matter has passed, so there is no need to blame yourself. You should have a good rest first. We will need your cooperation tomorrow." After Murong Xi finished his instructions, he went to the secret room where Elder Xu was detained.
In addition to being locked in a secret room, Elder Xu was not tied up. Because they all knew that Elder Xu could not fly out of this secret room even if he had wings.
When Murong Xi entered, he was meditating.
Murong Xi looked at Elder Xu and asked, "How has Elder Xu been reflecting here these days?"
Elder Xu looked calm and said to Murong Xi: "If you have anything else you want to ask, just ask. Anyway, I have been arrested by you, and I have pretty much told you what happened back then. What else do you want to know?"
?”
Murong Xi smiled slightly, and then said: "Did you cruelly touch your third junior brother? Where are his bones now?"
Elder Xu did not expect that Murong Xihui would suddenly ask about the third junior brother, and thought that she wanted to know who the medicine man was dealing with. However, when he heard about the third junior brother, he suddenly looked at Murong Xi nervously. Murong
Xi knew that this was an instinctive reaction.
Elder Xu stuttered a little and said: "Third, the death of third junior brother has nothing to do with me. When we were in the front hall that day, I already said that it was Yun Lan who killed him. Why do you want to accuse me unjustly?"
"Really? Do you need me to confront Yunlan? What do you think he will tell me?" Murong Xi said with a smile.
Although Murong Xi's smile was gentle, it made people feel a little uncomfortable. She smiled at Elder Xu like this, which made Elder Xu feel a little cold on his back.
Elder Xu swallowed his saliva and said, "You, haha, how could Yun Lan admit that he had threatened us for no reason? Besides, Yun Lan is very cunning, and getting him to admit it is even harder than climbing to the sky."
Elder Xu said a little unconvinced, he always believed that Yun Lan would not tell the truth about the matter.
"Elder Zheng is the key to this matter. Didn't you also see that day that he was not poisoned to death by you? He has already explained this matter to us, so after Yun Lan finds out, he will naturally admit that he has threatened you.
However, he was not the one who traded with the mysterious man, nor was he the one who killed him. In order to protect himself, he would naturally tell the truth. Therefore, if you want to be punished less, it is best to tell the truth and do what Yun Lan did.
Tell me all the bad things you did. Otherwise, no one will be able to protect you tomorrow." Murong
Xi smiled evilly and then said.
Elder Xu naturally understood what Murong Xi said. Murong Xi's analysis was correct. Yun Lan did not kill his third junior brother because of this incident. He did everything. In order to protect himself, Yun Lan will definitely betray him. When the time comes,
, and he became the target of public criticism.
So he said: "I will tell you everything, but I don't want to die."
"Don't worry, everything will follow the rules of Yaowang Valley. Tomorrow, those diehards from Yaowang Valley summoned by Yun Lan will come to Xuanmen Villa. I think you know those people better than I do." Murong Xi
Said slowly.
Elder Xu suddenly realized that those people had been coveting their position as elders, but unfortunately it was just because they were concubines, so they had been staying peacefully in Yaowang Valley. He naturally knew how unconvinced they were with the five elders.
If something happens tomorrow, and Yun Lan instigates it, they will definitely target themselves.
Elder Xu said: "I said, I will tell you everything I know."
Therefore, Elder Xu told Murong Xi what happened back then, including, of course, what the handle was in Yun Lan's hands.
After listening to Elder Xu's narration, Murong Xi said to him: "I hope you can be so cooperative tomorrow."
After Murong Xi left the secret room, she did not return to the courtyard. Instead, she went to her master. After saying a few words, she found Ji Limo. Ji Limo quickly sent someone from the Fengtian Sect to leave.
Xuanmen Villa.
At ten minutes in the middle of the night, several men in black scattered around to detoxify the people at Xuanmen Villa. After these people woke up, they reminded them when they heard the signal from the owner of the village and when they could get up.
After being busy for a full hour, several people discussed it and then went back to their rooms to rest.
Sure enough, in the early morning of the next day, I heard the noise at the gate of Xuanmen Villa. It turned out that more than a dozen old people came to the door. These people were the people from Yaowang Valley that Yun Lan had summoned, and when they saw Xuanmen
There was no gatekeeper at the Gate Villa, so he walked directly into the Villa. The secret guards in the valley had already passed the news into the Villa. At this moment, Murong Xi was waiting for their arrival in the front hall.
After these people arrived at the villa, they got a little lost and wandered around like headless flies.
"Boss, why is this village so big and there isn't even a gatekeeper? Are they playing tricks on us?" an old man in gray clothes said angrily.
"Don't be impulsive, there is no one to lead the way, we have to find it ourselves." Another man in white clothes said.
"I don't know about Yunlan..." The old man in gray clothes couldn't hold his breath. He seemed to feel that he had been offended, so he was a little excited.
"Ahem, let's not mention Yunlan. Okay, let's..." Before he could finish his words, he saw a disciple from Xuanmen Villa walking out.
"Excuse me, are you from Yaowang Valley?" The disciple asked respectfully.
"Well, how do you do things in your villa? You don't even have a gatekeeper?" asked the man in gray clothes.
"I'm really sorry, everyone. There was an accident in the villa yesterday. All those people were poisoned and unconscious. Therefore, there are not many people left in the villa, and there is no one to guard the door. Everyone, please come with me, I will take you
Go to the front hall." After the disciple finished speaking, he made a gesture of invitation, and then led several of them to the master's courtyard.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they finally arrived at the master's courtyard. After entering the courtyard, these people saw clearly that there were many people in the front hall, all of whom seemed to be waiting for their arrival.
The great elder saw him
After they came in, they pretended not to know and asked: "Why are you here? If it wasn't because the people in the villa discovered someone entering and reported it to the valley owner, or because you were the ones who broke into the villa and wanted to murder the villa?"
"We wanted to see who the Valley Master promoted to become the Valley Master, but there was no news after several days, so we came over in person. Who knew there was no one guarding the outside of the villa, and we waited for a long time, and then we thought
Come and take a look first," said the old man in white clothes.
"Great Elder, what do you mean? We don't look like people who are looking for trouble in Xuanmen Villa, do we? How can you say that?" The man in gray clothes said excitedly.
"Of course I'm not saying that you two look alike. It's just that something happened at Xuanmen Villa yesterday, and you didn't notify us that you were coming to the Villa, so it's easy for people to misunderstand you. Fortunately, the people at the Villa asked us first, otherwise they would have taken action.
Wouldn't it be embarrassing to come?" the great elder said slowly.
"Senior brother, all the clan members came here to inform me. Before I had time to tell you, who knew they would arrive early." When Yun Lan walked to the door, he heard the words of the great elder, and as soon as he entered the door, he began to explain.
"Now that you're here, sit down. It's been a long journey, and I'll let the owner arrange the rooms. You can have a good rest first." The master said slowly.
"Valley Master, there is no need to rest. Our clan members are here today because they actually want to see the new Valley Master. However, I heard that he is not related to you by blood. In this case, is it inconsistent with the Yaowang Valley?"
What about the rules? We are not here to stop your decision, but you also know that the rules cannot be changed. Therefore, we will not recognize this new Valley Master unless another Yun clan sect
I will take over the position of Valley Master. Otherwise, we will not be convinced." As soon as the old man in white finished speaking, they heard them shouting unconvinced words in unison.
The master asked slowly: "Cousin, I want to ask you a question. What qualifications should a Valley Master of Yaowang Valley have?"
"Be benevolent and generous. With the current situation of Yaowang Valley, she must be able to restore Yaowang Valley to its former state," said the elder in white.
"Oh? Then my little disciple has all these things except that I am not related by blood. Then let me ask you, if a member of the Yun clan has the right to inherit, he is treacherous, cunning, and scheming.
Can such a vicious person become a Valley Master?" Master asked rhetorically.
The old man in white looked at his master and said, "Of course not."
"Well said. Since the clan members are here today, there happen to be some matters in the valley that need to be resolved. It is best for the clan members to be here. When the time comes, we will still need the clan members' help or not." The master said slowly.
"Well, don't worry, Valley Master. We will naturally stand for justice. But, where are Elder Zheng and Elder Xu? How come there are only three elders here?" The old man in white asked slowly.
"They will be here soon, please sit down first." After the clan members sat down, several Xuanmen Villa disciples came in carrying tea.
When Yun Lan heard his master mention that Elder Zheng and Elder Xu would be coming soon, he felt a little uneasy. He didn't know the meaning of his words. If they found the bodies of the two elders, then they would not suspect it.
On his own body. But what if... He didn't dare to think about it. Elder Zheng should have been poisoned by Elder Xu, but if they captured Elder Xu alive, would Elder Xu betray him? Because of this, he
Only then did they forget that those disciples had already detoxified themselves and after hearing the signal, they went into the front hall to serve tea.
