Murong Xi's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, but she looked at the elder in disbelief and said, "Jiang is really old and spicy. The elder actually guessed it. It's really amazing."
This girl's ambition exceeded his imagination. He originally thought that she just wanted to get the tribe's treasure, and he just needed to take her back to the tribe. As it turned out, they wanted more than just the treasure. What she wanted was
The whole tribe.
Murong Xi just wanted the elder Zheng to have this illusion and let him know that there was someone as ambitious as him. Only by doing this, would he believe in herself and tell her the secrets he knew. Yes, Murong Xi's plan was to let her
The elder told her willingly.
"What exactly do you want to know when you wake me up?" the elder asked warily.
"I just said that you have been lying down for a few days and it's time to get up and move around. When the time comes, you will continue to sleep." Murong Xi said with a smile.
"Zhuang Zhou Mengdie, it seems that you refined this poison and used it on me. But, since you have such ability, why don't you take action against the witch master?" Elder Zheng asked helplessly.
Murong Xi shrugged, and then said easily: "You just took advantage of Ji Limo's carelessness to successfully bewitch him. Otherwise, why do you think I didn't take action against him for so long? Because I was not sure.
, the wizard's witchcraft is really powerful. I didn't expect that I could actually succeed with your help."
The elder felt a chill in his heart. He had lived a long time, and he had never seen such a person. Even the great elder back then was not as scary as this little girl. However, the elder was not given time to think.
, his eyelids began to fight, and he fell on the bed after a while.
Feng Mingye looked at Murong Xi. Murong Xi shook his head first, and then checked Elder Zheng's pulse. Then he swallowed a pill for Elder Zheng, and gave him another injection before he breathed a sigh of relief.
After everything was done, Murong Xi and Feng Mingye left the house.
Feng Mingye was so nervous that he finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Will the elder be awake?"
"Of course not, unless I suppress the poison in his body again." Murong Xi said carefully.
Feng Mingye nodded in relief, but before she could speak, Ji Limo appeared beside Murong Xi.
"I watched a good show, but I didn't expect that Xi'er didn't intend to ask him directly." Ji Limo said with a slight smile.
"Let's go in and talk later." Murong Xi said to Ji Limo.
After the three people returned to the house, Murong Xi looked outside the door and asked, "Where is Huanhua?"
"I'm not at ease with Elder Zheng, so I told Huan Huan to come to you. I just told him to come directly in half an hour." Ji Limo said.
"Don't worry, the elder Zheng can't do any tricks." As soon as Murong Xi finished speaking, Su Huanwan walked in.
"Am I late?" Su Huanwen entered the room and saw three people sitting there, so she asked with a smile.
"Huanwen came at the right time, and we have just come back." Murong Xi said with a smile.
Ji Limo quickly stood up and pulled Su Huanwan to sit on a chair, then poured her a cup of hot tea.
"How is it? Did the elder tell the secret?" Su Huanwan asked curiously.
Ji Limo shook his head and said with a helpless smile: "Silly girl, how could the elder tell us the secret so easily?"
"You are right, he is so treacherous, he will definitely not say anything." Su Huan thought for a while and said.
Murong Xi pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Elder Zheng is indeed treacherous, but there are also things he can't think of."
"You are the most ghostly person. I think the elder would be so angry that you would vomit blood if he saw you again." Feng Mingye said sitting aside.
"Xier, Elder Zheng asked you what you wanted to know, why didn't you ask him directly?" Ji Limo asked doubtfully.
Murong Xi said: "I know he promised me in the forbidden area that he would tell me the secrets in the box. However, even if I ask him today, what he told me will not be true. Because I have to let him
Trust me and let him really think that I am an ambitious woman. Only in this way will he believe that I really want to get the tribe."
"It's strange that Elder Zheng is willing to tell you the secret of the wooden box when you want to go back to the tribe? Does he just want to tell you that the treasure is the gold mine?" Ji Limo thought for a while and said.
"It should be more than just this secret. The secret in the wooden box is definitely not this." Murong Xi responded affirmatively.
"Xi'er is indeed smart. When I was listening to your conversation outside just now, I thought you would ask Elder Zheng directly after you woke him up. We all know that Elder Zheng is very treacherous, but we didn't expect you to touch him so quickly.
Check his temper." Ji Limo thought for a while and said.
"Elder Zheng is not only treacherous, but also very suspicious. If he doesn't trust you, even if you kill him, he won't tell you." Murong Xi sighed and said.
"What are your plans next?" Ji Limo asked.
Murong Xi thought for a while and continued: "I didn't keep him because of the secrets he said, nor did I want to join the tribe. I think you all know. I just hope that my master can deal with him personally according to the rules of the tribe.
Don't let Master leave any regrets. Master and the others have received the news, and I believe they will meet at Xuanmen Villa soon."
"This matter is really bizarre to say the least. Even your master didn't know there was a secret in the tomb, so he just let Elder Zheng get the wooden box." Ji Limo shrugged.
He lamented that the elder was very lucky. It stands to reason that there was a formation in the cave. No accident, he would be imprisoned for a lifetime. What he didn't expect was that the back mountain suddenly collapsed. Not only did he not be trapped in the cave, but he was also imprisoned.
Found the underground passage.
Not only that, the underground passage actually led to the tomb of the ancestor of Yaowang Valley. However, although he obtained the wooden box and practiced the witchcraft inside, he also became the puppet of his ancestor.
"I don't know if getting the wooden box is a blessing or a curse?" Feng Mingye said with emotion.
"If you say that the chief elder can be considered a profit, he has lived for such a long time and is still so young." Su Huanhua followed.
"Huanhan is right, you have made money after living for such a long time." Ji Limo agreed with Su Huanhan's words.
After the four people chatted for another half an hour, they each went back to their rooms to rest.
Early the next morning, they packed up and prepared to leave the town.
Feng Mingye looked at Murong Xi and asked, "This town is very unique. I thought you and Huanhua would stay here for a stroll."
"Because I am in a hurry to return to Nanzhao, it is not only inconvenient for us to take Elder Zheng with us. Although it is impossible for him to wake up now, I dare not be too careless. If I go out with Huanhan, you and Ji Li
Mo must be worried and will definitely follow us. Then, Ye Feng and the others are the only ones left in the yard. None of us know exactly how strong the elder is, so I don't dare to bet on this." Murong Xi leaned on Feng Ming.
Ye said.
"You are right. The elder Zheng should not be too careless. In that case, let's hurry back as fast as possible. When there is a chance in the future, I will take you to this small town to stay for a few days."
Feng Mingye looked at Murong Xi lovingly and said to Murong Xi.
"Does this courtyard belong to Yama Hall?" Murong Xi asked leisurely.
"Well, there are quite a few of us. It would be too ostentatious to stay in an inn along the way." Feng Mingye nodded and said.
"You are right. Mainly because we have an elder with us, it is indeed a bit ostentatious. It seems that before returning to Nanzhao, it is better not to provoke the elder." Murong Xi shook his head and said.
"Are you worried that something will happen?" Feng Mingye asked doubtfully.
"I'm worried that he is prepared. If he wakes up again, he will definitely be prepared. He is a master of refining gu. If there is a chance to take action, we will be in great trouble." Murong Xi said worriedly.
"Do you plan to let him sleep until Nanzhao Kingdom?" Feng Mingye asked.
"Well, only in this way can we rest assured. You, me, and Ji Limo are naturally not afraid of being poisoned along the way, but except for the three of us, the others have no ability to resist at all." Murong Xi thought for a while and said.
Feng Mingye knew that if Huanwen and the others had not followed, they would not have had to bewitch the elder Zheng. However, even though Murong Xi had bewitched him, they still had to be careful.
Just as he was talking, Ye Feng stood outside the window and whispered: "Master, there is news."
"Come in." Feng Mingye responded.
After Ye Feng came in and delivered the letter, he left the room. Feng Mingye opened the letter, then held it in front of Murong Xi's eyes and read it together.
"It turns out that your master and the others have already arrived at Xuanmen Villa. I didn't expect that their speed was quite fast." Feng Mingye said to Murong Xi.
"Well, I didn't expect that they could move so fast with the great elder. It seems they really want to see the great elder as soon as possible." Murong Xi murmured.
"The chief elder is young. If the great elder sees him, will he be stimulated?" Feng Mingye said.
Feng Mingye knew that the great elder had just gotten better and that the elder was not dead. If he knew that the elder was rejuvenated and looked like he was only in his twenties, wouldn't the great elder not be able to accept it?
"I haven't thought about this. I can only remind him to be mentally prepared when the time comes." Murong Xi paused before speaking.
Because she had indeed overlooked this point, it would be better to tell the master first when she arrived at Xuanmen Villa and let the master remind the elder first.
"Master, mistress, the carriage is ready." Ye Feng said standing outside.
"I know." Feng Mingye responded and then left the room with Murong Xi.
After a few people got on the carriage, they quickly set off and left the town. After this departure, they were traveling faster than before.
It wasn't until another three days later that they finally entered Nanzhao Kingdom.
"When we arrive at this border town, why not stay here for one day? I guess everyone is tired. What do you think?" Feng Mingye asked.
In fact, what they were most worried about was that Mrs. Su and Lin'er would be exhausted, so no matter how busy they were along the way, they would have a good rest at night.
It's just that when they were on the road during the day, they would not stop, and they would always eat on the carriage. No, they arrived at the border town before noon. If they were in a hurry, they would still have time to reach the next town. However, Feng Ming
Ye knew that they were already very tired, so he suggested that everyone take a good rest here to adjust.
"We have nothing to do with each other. We are just worried about our mother and children. It wouldn't be a bad idea to take a day's rest in a small town." Ji Limo thought for a while and said.
In fact, he could tell that Su Huan was a little tired these days, but he didn't want to delay his trip, so he didn't say anything.
