Seeing that everyone had arrived, Elder Wuxin cleared his throat, waved his hands habitually to the already silent crowd, and said pretentiously: "First of all, on behalf of the elders of Pingle Kingdom, I would like to welcome the great protector from the devil world.
and the Third Guardian to attend our meeting------"
The nondescript words made Lu Xiao's already frowning brows twist into a knot. Just as he was about to speak out, the Ninth Elder Wentian shouted first: "Second brother, can't we talk less nonsense?
Now that so many people in Pingle Kingdom have been infected by the plague, you are not worried at all! You are still in the mood to show off here. Are you waiting for everyone to die before you become anxious?"
The merciless words made Elder Wuxin's face turn blue and white for a while, but he was so embarrassed that he couldn't speak. Obviously, the relationship between the two of them is not good on weekdays, and they even have deep grudges, otherwise Wentian wouldn't
He was so embarrassed in front of everyone.
Lu Xiao felt very happy after seeing it. To be fair, he was also very disgusted with some of Wu Xin's actions, especially the extravagant scene in the holy realm, which greatly reduced his impression of Pingle Kingdom, and he blamed this disappointment for no reason.
On Wu Xin's head. Now that someone is trying to steal Wu Xin's gift, of course he would be happy to see it laughed at.
Seeing Lu Xiao's gloating smile, Meng Zirou rolled her eyes helplessly, knowing his little thoughts clearly, but she agreed with Wentian Ping's words. In such troubled times, she really shouldn't do those superficial things.
Kungfu, if you have this time, why not calm down and think about how to solve the problem at hand.
Jin Lie leaned on the back of his chair, playing with a string of Buddhist beads on his wrist, without saying a word. After a long while, he glanced at Wentian, who was noisy and non-stop, and smiled faintly. But with just such a look, Wentian immediately
He closed his mouth, nodded respectfully, and sat down obediently. Several other elders also subconsciously sat upright and looked at Jin Lie with serious faces. The atmosphere in the venue suddenly became serious.
The smile on Jin Lie's face deepened, his triangular eyes narrowed, he looked at Lu Xiao humbly, and asked politely: "I wonder what the Great Protector has to say about the current situation?"
Lu Xiao didn't expect that he would suddenly ask this question. He blinked and replied pretending to be ignorant: "I don't even know the situation now, so what advice can I have?"
"Haha, the Great Protector is joking!" Jin Lie pretended to be bold and laughed a few times, and continued: "I heard that the maid of the Third Protector has also been infected with the plague. Aren't you two worried at all?"
"How did the third elder determine that what they had was the plague?" Meng Zirou asked without missing a chance. The stability and ability of the third elder not only did not make her have any respect, but she felt that the city was too deep, making people reluctant to get close to him.
"Dozens of people in the kingdom are sick at the same time, and the symptoms are the same. What is it if it's not a plague?" He Wu looked at Meng Zirou coldly, obviously very dissatisfied with her questioning Jin Lie.
"Dozens of people got sick at the same time, with the same symptoms? Did they all start this morning? Did anyone else get sick later?" Meng Zirou asked, not caring about He Wu's attitude.
"No!" He Wu hesitated for a moment, then replied affirmatively. At this moment, she also realized that she was too arbitrary. This situation should not be a plague, but a collective poisoning. But the people who were sick did not live together, so why
Possibly poisoned at the same time? Meng Zirou had no idea for a moment, her purple eyes flashing with thought.
"Are their cultivation levels very high?" Lu Xiao suddenly asked. This confusing sentence made everyone stunned. No one understood the connection between this question and the situation at hand.
After a long while, Wu Xin said: "Yes, those who are sick are all people with strong spiritual power. We were fighting Sharman together a few days ago, but I didn't expect that just two days later - what do you mean?" Wu Xin suddenly stopped.
He stopped talking, his eyes were round, and his fat face was full of shock.
Lu Xiao glanced at him with satisfaction. Seeing that he had understood what he meant and that he was not too stupid, he started to explain: "What I mean is that what they got was not the plague, but poisoning. Shaman left
At that time, she once sprayed a cloud of miasma on everyone. Although no one had any symptoms at the time, Sharman left a one-month time limit. At that time, I felt strange. Now it seems that she is taking everyone's lives.
As a bargaining chip, she threatens us to find clean water within a month, otherwise these people will be buried with her!"
The commanding and kingly aura returned to Lu Xiao's face, sweeping away the morbid condition of the past few days, and his black eyes were filled with hope and strength, which made Meng Zirou feel fascinated.
At the same time, Lu Xiao's well-founded words reminded Meng Zirou. She suddenly remembered that the marks on Mo Zhu's body were exactly the same as those on Shaman's body. It was obvious that she was injured by the miasma spitted out by Shaman, which caused such a situation.
Jin Lie nodded in agreement and continued to ask respectfully: "Then what is the Great Protector's next plan?" The implication is that the important task of finding a treatment method is directly passed on to Lu Xiao and others.
Lu Xiao looked at Jin Lie with disdain, who was pretending to be helpless. Although he knew that he had to find an antidote even for Mo Zhu, he still had a look of helplessness on his face: "This is really embarrassing for me. The strange man of Pingle Kingdom
There are so many heretics, don’t they know how to detoxify them?”
"I know!" Before Jin Lie could speak, Wu Xin, fearing that he would be robbed of the limelight, replied preemptively and pretentiously: "Use purified water to remove the poison from their bodies."
Jin Lie glared at him fiercely. This matter was said by Shaman himself, and everyone present at the time knew it well. No one wants to mention it now. Obviously no one knows what purified water is and where it is now.
, how to find it. Wu Xin's words of being clever undoubtedly put this important task on the head of Pingle Kingdom, which made Jin Lie feel angry.
Lu Xiao smiled handsomely and complimented the situation: "The second elder is really knowledgeable and talented! Since you know that purified water can cure this poison, you must also know how to find purified water. Why don't I bother you, old man, to make a trip and help all the people?"
Let the injured find a chance to survive!" The euphemistic words directly pushed Wu Xin into an embarrassing situation. It was definitely unjustifiable to refuse categorically at this time, but he agreed but had no way of doing anything. Wu Xin's old face turned red and his lips trembled.
Several times, but not a word was uttered.
But Zhui Ri, the sturdy red-faced man, saw that he was speechless when he was asked, so he came out to smooth things over: "Pure water is the treasure of the Zhi tribe. It is said that it can purify all miasma poisons. It has been praised by the great leaders of the Zhi tribe throughout the ages.
The leader owns it. It is not difficult to get it. It’s just that the Zhi clan is hidden in the south of the clouds and is located in a remote place. The second elder shoulders the important task of governing the Pingle Kingdom and cannot travel far. Zhui Ri is willing to share the worries of the second elder.
I know what you think!" Before he finished speaking, the other elders suddenly started talking.
After a moment, Yun Zhongzi loudly agreed: "I agree with Fifth Brother's statement. Don't worry, please give me two days to find out the details of the Zhi clan so that Fifth Brother can act more conveniently." Several people on the right also started talking.
Echoed. However, the three elders sitting on the left did not say anything. They secretly looked at Jin Lie's face, as if they were waiting for something.
When the crowd's response gradually subsided, Jin Lie spoke without hesitation: "I wonder how sure the Fifth Elder is of finding pure water?"
"This------" Zhui Ri looked into Jin Lie's secretive eyes hesitantly, thought for a moment, and answered directly: "I will go all out to find clean water!"
——"Do you dare to issue a military order?"
As soon as Jin Lie's words came out, the whole place was in an uproar. Zhui Ri took on the important task of finding medicine for everyone, which was already a righteous act, but now he was forced to issue a military order. It showed that the other party's intentions were so vicious that it was hard to express.
"What do you mean?" Jade Dragon's willow eyebrows stood up, his almond-shaped eyes widened, he slammed the table, his petite body immediately jumped up, his silver-blue hair flying in anger, as if it would turn into a life-threatening sword at any time.
, piercing directly into the enemy's throat.
"It's nothing, I just want to make sure that Lao Wu's trip won't go in vain and waste everyone's time!" Jin Lie was not moved at all and still played with the beads in his hand without even picking it up.
"You------" Jade Dragon was about to have a fit, but Zhui Ri stopped her, looked straight at Jin Lie with a serious face, and replied without hesitation: "I dare!"
"Well done, you are worthy of being praised, you have backbone! Get a pen and paper!" Jin Lie praised greatly, but his eyes showed the opposite meaning. Lu Xiao and Meng Zirou watched the farce unfold with cold eyes,
But they didn't do anything to stop it. The image of Pingle Kingdom in their hearts had already plummeted. If it weren't for Mo Zhu and those innocent people in Paradise, they would have left long ago.
