Hu Xiaomei's heart trembled slightly. From a rational point of view, she did not want Shen Lang to know about that matter, because it was really not a trivial matter. According to her original plan, she just hoped that Shen Lang could learn about Ye Ruoqiu through the fairy after he returned.
whereabouts.
Because in her opinion, it is difficult for Shen Lang to help that troublesome person, and even fairies may not be able to help. Only a strong Dongxu Realm expert like Ye Ruoqiu, who was born in Kunlun, is more confident.
Therefore, she did not want Shen Lang to know the true situation of the ancient tribe in the wilderness, nor did she want Shen Lang to bear too much for her.
However, when Shen Lang stood in front of her, caring about her like a real brother and questioning her in a tone that left no room for doubt, Hu Xiaomei suddenly realized that she could not hide him at all.
"Mom is sick." Hu Xiaomei said, "She suddenly fell ill half a month ago and was unconscious most of the time."
"Fell sick? Are you unconscious?" Shen Lang's surprise was no small matter!
Who is Hu Xiaomei's mother? She is the queen of the ancient tribe of the wild! A powerful person in the Cave Void Realm who is comparable to Master Qingyun!
To put it bluntly, she is the patron saint of the Wild Ancient Clan! And the patron saint actually fell ill. This must be a terrible blow to the people of the Wild Ancient Clan and Hu Xiaomei?
At this time, after telling the truth, Hu Xiaomei seemed to have torn off the disguise she had been together in the past, her eyes were faintly red, and she threw herself into Shen Lang's arms, lying helplessly on his shoulder like the most ordinary little girl.
Shen Lang let her hold her and caressed her back. Only then did he realize that Hu Xiaomei's body was trembling slightly. She was as strong as she was and as cheerful as she was sobbing silently at this moment...
Shen Lang was speechless for a long time, feeling the helplessness and fatigue of carrying the entire ancient clan on her back. The only thing he could do was to lend her his shoulders and hold her in distress.
In the silence, the two hugged each other by the river for a long time. It wasn't until tears wet Shen Lang's shoulders that Hu Xiaomei gradually calmed down.
"Don't worry, bad things will eventually pass. The blood of the Tianhu lineage is extremely powerful. The clan leader will definitely be fine." Shen Lang comforted her.
"Yeah." Hu Xiaomei nodded firmly.
However, Shen Lang, who had just finished speaking his words of comfort, suddenly thought of something wrong.
"Wait a minute! How can a strong person in the Dongxu Realm get sick easily? Even an average strong person in the Dongxu Realm will get sick, and there is a possibility of falling ill. But the bloodline of Tianhu is so defiant that it can cause all kinds of disasters and six disasters.
How can he fall ill if he is so inaccessible? It’s definitely not that simple!”
"And as early as a long time ago, it was suspected that someone in the Wild Ancient Clan was colluding with the Demon Sect. That time led to Hu Xiaomei being kidnapped by the Guiming Sect. This time, it was actually the backbone of the Wild Ancient Clan who fell ill? What a coincidence.
What's more, Elder Qingmu once said that the Cangming Sect's special envoy came uninvited, could that be..."
Shen Lang hesitated for a moment and asked: "Do you think it is possible that there was a traitor who poisoned me?"
"We have also suspected this. The most suspicious people are the leader of the wolf tribe and the leader of the cat tribe. Because as early as more than ten years ago, the ambitious leader of the wolf tribe had proposed more than once that he wanted to rebirth the ancient tribe of the wilderness.
But this proposal has never been accepted in the ancient clan meetings for more than ten years." Hu Xiaomei said: "And coincidentally, the day my mother fell ill, she happened to meet these two commanders."
"Then they probably didn't run away! They must have colluded with the Demon Sect." Shen Lang said: "They want the ancient tribe of the wilderness to be reborn, and Queen Sky Fox is their biggest obstacle. They have sufficient motives and serious suspicions, and more importantly
It’s because they have gone together with the people of Cang Ming Sect.”
"That's good, but there are still many doubts." Hu Xiaomei gradually regained her composure and told Shen Lang what she knew about the situation in a very organized manner.
"The four supreme elders and I have all considered the issue of poisoning, but we always feel that it is a bit impossible. Because it is too difficult to poison a strong person in the cave realm, and my mother is a nine-tailed celestial fox, and her physique is inherently poisonous.
If you don’t invade, it stands to reason that you shouldn’t be poisoned. Therefore, the Supreme Elders are more willing to believe that this is not poisoning, but that my mother has a big problem with her practice, which leads to a physical condition."
"Secondly, although the envoy from the Demon Dao Xuanming Sect came uninvited, with the support of the elixir he personally refined, my mother's condition seems to have improved. This is not like poisoning."
After hearing this, Shen Lang couldn't help but wonder, "It's getting better? So what's the situation now?"
"Actually, it's not an improvement, it's just that the condition has not worsened." Hu Xiaomei said: "Every time I get the elixir from him, it costs a lot of money. In the past half month, it has been wild and ancient.
Almost half of the family’s wealth was squandered.”
Speaking of this, Shen Lang suddenly remembered that the old man with a black beard at the auction had once said that in just half a month, the ancient tribe of the wilderness spent at least one trillion spiritual stones! This is equivalent to the combined wealth of three wealthy families!
The consumption of half a month is so terrible, and the condition of Queen Sky Fox has not improved significantly! If this continues, even if the ancient tribe of the wilderness has accumulated a lot of wealth, I am afraid that it will not last long.
If you can't hold on, then...
"Perhaps! This is the real purpose of the Demon Sect? Now that the Wolf Clan and the Cat Clan have joined the Demon Sect, only people like Hu Xiaomei are left struggling to support them. When they can no longer hold on, they will have to force everyone to
Join the Demon Sect!"
"But why are things such a coincidence? The arrival of Cang Ming's special envoy must have been too coincidental."
In just a short moment, Shen Lang, who was in a state of shock, thought of countless possibilities. As his mood fluctuated violently, the sky in his spiritual world suddenly collapsed and huge waves surged.
The nameless old devil who was sleeping in the black lotus cursed secretly. When he accurately sensed why Shen Lang was shocked, he couldn't help but cursed angrily: "Be calm, there is nothing wrong with guessing, use your feet."
You can count on your fingers, the clan leader of Tianhu lineage must not be ill, but poisoned!"
"Poisoned? Isn't the constitution of Tianhu's lineage invulnerable to all poisons?" Shen Lang asked.
"Invulnerable to all poisons? Humph! All things are mutually reinforcing. How can there be any absolutely invincible physique in the world? Not to mention the Sky Fox bloodline, even the bloodline of gods and demons will have weaknesses. There are always several kinds of strange things in the world.
You can restrain it." The nameless old devil said:
"It must be one of the most terrifying poisons in the world. In terms of preciousness, it is no less precious than the spiritual roots of heaven and earth. Those guys who poisoned it can really afford it."
"No less poisonous than the spiritual root of heaven and earth?" Shen Lang was shocked again and couldn't help but ask: "Then how to detoxify it?"
"You kid, do you really think I know everything?" the unknown old devil said angrily.
Shen Lang thought for a while and said shamelessly: "But you are a knowledgeable, omniscient, omniscient senior."
"This..." The nameless old devil was a little dizzy by Shen Lang's sudden flattery, "Ahem! I guess you have some vision. But to detoxify, I must first see the poisoned person to know accurately.
What kind of poison did she get before she can make the next plan?"
