97. Temptation
Usually, people like Xi Yutang and Yue Qingfeng, who are used to killing and deciding on weekdays, once they decide to do something, it is difficult for anyone to stop them.
Subverting the Medicine King Valley sounded like nothing more than a harmless joke made by the two of them when they were chatting, and Shen Qi didn't expect that two sentences that seemed to be completely casual would determine the ownership of a sect's leader. The two of them said lightly, as if they didn't take it to heart at all, and discussed how to proceed if this matter was to be done in a casual and everyday tone, and then sketched a rough outline in a few words, and then filled it with flesh and blood little by little like a clay man, and waited for the whole plan to be finished, but it was only enough time for a few teas.
This is Xi Yutang and Yue Qingfeng. In other words, this is probably the daily life of the two of them - it is easy to decide to kill, easily decide to trap people, and easily decide the future direction of a sect.
…… Shen Qi felt as if he had a dream.
He remembered that he just wanted the younger master to help buy the fire grass, why did things develop to the point where he fell from power?
Until the next day, sitting in Dabi's square, Dr. Shen still couldn't come back to his senses.
Or maybe it's because the name [Xu Ran] was too showy in the big competition on the first day, and more people came to watch the competition on the second day. But it didn't take long for people to realize that the stands seemed to be much calmer and the atmosphere was much more normal. After looking around, I realized that only the young master came today, and the sect leader Xi did not show up.
…… What to do, it seems that I accidentally thought of some not-so-good truth......
Today, Jiang Qiantong deliberately exchanged seats with Lin Yuan, thinking about being next to Xi Yutang, who knew that the other party didn't come at all, he couldn't help but feel lost, thinking about it, he still couldn't help but ask the younger master in the air.
"Did you say Tangtang?" Yue Qingfeng gently looked at the beautiful face of the girl in front of her, "She thinks these are boring, and she is too lazy to join in the fun, but she still specially asked Yue to take care of the Jiang Palace Master." ”
Jiang Qiantong: "......"
The less the Lord, are you really not suspicious at all?
"Tang Tang" is such an intimate name, you can call it in public......
"Can I go to her?" Jiang Qiantong asked quietly.
"I'm afraid not." Yue Qingfeng didn't show the slightest impatience, "But I'll help you convey it at lunch." ”
Jiang Qiantong was stunned, seeing that Yue Qingfeng was serious, he was not perfunctory at all, and his heart moved, guessing that maybe Xi Yutang had something to do. She already wondered why Xi Yutang came to Yaowang Valley to join in the fun, but when she saw [Xu Ran], she had a bottom in her heart. When they went to the south of the Yangtze River, Xi Yutang assumed the alias of Yu Yang, and Shen Qi assumed the alias of Xu Ran, she remembered that she only knew that Dr. Shen was a high-level member of the Xuantian Sect in the past, but now when she came to the Valley of the Medicine King, she thought of the Shen family, and she suddenly realized that Dr. Shen was also surnamed 'Shen'.
With such an association, it is not surprising that Xi Yutang appears here.
So what did Xi Yutang do?
She is indeed impatient to look at the medical skills competition, first, she doesn't understand, and secondly, she believes in Shen Qi, since she already knows the result in advance, then instead of being in a daze in the stands or being cheekily shown by Yue Qingfeng, it is better to visit the Shen family and the Medicine King Valley.
Of course, she wouldn't go to find the location of the fire grass now, she just deliberately wandered around the Medicine King Valley, deliberately came to a quiet streamside medicine field, and then accidentally, had a chance encounter with Shen Huan.
The rest is a logical one.
Although Shen Huan and Shen Luo are brothers, Shen Huan's methods are far less powerful than Shen Luo's. After losing the position of the head of the family, he may feel unwilling in the first year or two, but as time goes by, the more stable Shen Luo's position is, and the less likely he wants to turn the situation around, he can only admit his fate, and from then on he plunged into the vastness of medical skills, ignoring the things outside the window, and playing the image of an idle house to the end.
But is it really dead?
Xi Yutang didn't know, so he had today's chance encounter.
Before she saw Shen Huan, she thought that the other party would have a similar face to Shen Luo, but unexpectedly, Shen Huan was completely different from what she imagined - coarse cloth clothes, mud on trouser legs, gray and mottled hair, messy beard, squatting next to the medicine field without any image, and a broken bamboo basket beside him......
It's like a village farmer.
Such a Shen Huan, standing in front of Xi Yutang, she didn't dare to admit it...... So the meeting between the two was a real accident.
Shen Huan recognized her. The characteristics of Xi Xiao's sect leader are obvious, no one in this world dares to wear the same mask as her, and the news that she came to participate in the Baicao Club has already spread to every corner of the Medicine King Valley, Shen Huan was not surprised to see her at all, and he didn't show much alienation and hostility towards her like Shen Luo, seeing that she was bored and felt that the Baicao Society was boring, so he let her sit aside and watch him collect medicine.
Xi Yutang had excellent patience, and he was also a little curious about Shen Huan, so when he saw that he was so skilled in collecting medicine, as if he had done it more than a thousand times, he couldn't help but ask a few words about what he was doing. Shen Huan has a good temper, she answers whatever she asks, the age difference between the two is doubled, but they chatted strangely and harmoniously.
As the atmosphere between the two turned peaceful, Shen Huan suddenly asked about the person [Xu Ran].
"It's Shen Mei, right?" He spoke very casually, his hands handling the freshly picked herbs.
"The person Xi said by the predecessor doesn't know." Xi Yutang didn't admit it at all, and he didn't care whether the other party believed it or not.
Shen Huan smiled meaninglessly, "Whatever you want." However, Sect Leader Xi is in the limelight like this, and he is not afraid that the rest of the Shen family will guess his identity? ”
Xi Yutang didn't speak.
Shen Huan didn't seem to care whether she answered or not, and after a pause, he continued, "I can guess, and so can others." Since you dare to appear in the Medicine King Valley, you will naturally think of this...... I'm afraid I don't care if the Shen family recognizes Shen Mei or not. ”
I don't care, because the main purpose of her coming to Medicine King Valley is for Shen Qi, how boring is it for people to be unrecognizable?
However, Xi Yutang would not tell Shen Huan about this, but changed his tone and talked about Shen Ci, "This seat is just curious, the old valley master really went to the snow mountain back then?" ”
Shen Huan sneered without raising his head, "Sect Master Xi doesn't know about this? ”
"I've heard of it, but it's suspicious, and my predecessors also know that I've only been in charge of Xuantian for ten years, and I was a nameless boy before that." Xi Yutang said lightly, "Although Ah Qi has stayed by this seat for many years, he has never mentioned the master and family, so it is naturally difficult to ask, but Xuantian and Medicine King Gu have been at odds for many years, and this seat can't ask directly, and I really feel unhappy if I can't get an answer...... Do the seniors know why Shen Luo expelled Ah Qi from the division? ”
Shen Huan was silent.
He lowered his head and processed the herbs, one after another, until the entire basket of herbs was processed, then he raised his head, and looked at Xi Yutang without the slightest impatience in his deep eyes, "Sect Master Xi wants to know?" ”
Xi Yutang was noncommittal, "This seat and Shen Luo look at each other with disgust, but the predecessors are not the same as the Shen family." ”
Shen Huan was stunned and shook his head amusedly, "How about Sect Master Xi answer the old man's question first?" ”
Xi Yutang made a gesture of please.
"What are you doing in the Medicine King Valley?" Shen Huan asked.
"I have nothing to do to accompany Yue Qingfeng on a trip, he wants to go to the Qing Silver Branch." Xi Yutang replied.
“……”
Okay, so straightforward!
Shen Huan twitched the corners of his mouth faintly, "The two of you are so interested." "It's okay to go on a date with the Medicine King Valley.
"Seniors have won awards." Xi Yutang didn't care, "Now the seniors can say it." ”
“……”
Shen Huan laughed, "Why is Sect Leader Xi joking with the old man, do you think the old man believes this answer?" ”
"Why don't you believe it?" Xi Yutang raised his eyebrows, "The seniors are also the kind of people who listen to the rumors of the rivers and lakes?" I'm not in a life-and-death relationship with the lesser the Lord. ”
Glancing deeply at the young man in front of him, Shen Huan patted the dirt on his trouser legs, and said lightly, "Indeed, Sect Master Xi and the rumors are not the same. It's just that your question can't be answered by the old man, because I don't know either. ”
Xi Yutang narrowed his eyes, and then hooked his lips indifferently, "That's it." ”
After a pause, she said, "The grievances between Shen Qi and the Medicine King Valley, this seat is not interested, but for the sake of the encounter between the seniors and me in Pingshui, and you look more pleasing to the eye than Shen Luo, Xi will say one more thing - the death of the old valley master has nothing to do with my Xuantian." ”
When the words fell, Shen Huan's eyes suddenly sharpened.
"This seat is not used by everyone, since Shen Qi is left, it will naturally be checked." Xi Yutang looked at the other party's rather stressful gaze and wrote lightly, "It is said that the death of the old valley master is Xuantian's murder and extermination...... Didn't the seniors think it was strange? According to this seat, it seems that someone saw an opportunity and wanted to kick away the stumbling block. Since the old valley lord took Shen Qi back then, he really wanted to kill people and kill people, why not kill the two together? Cutting grass can be eradicated, right? ”
“……”
"Besides, even if someone thought the old valley master was troublesome in that situation back then, and killed people under the banner of revenge against the Xuantian Sect...... What's the point of killing a doctor who is going home? Wouldn't it be better to hit the snowy mountains directly? ”
The words were finished, and seeing that the person in front of him was deep in thought, Xi Yutang stopped talking and got up to leave.
Shen Huan also stood up with her movements, and said firmly, "Why did Sect Master Xi say this to the old man? I'm not an elder in the Medicine King Valley, and I'm not interested in the affairs of the rivers and lakes. ”
"That's interesting...... Will the murderer who killed the old valley owner be interested? Xi Yutang glanced at him arrogantly, not wanting to debunk the illusion that he had nothing to do with himself.
"My father was killed, and I naturally felt heartbroken." Shen Huan lowered his eyes.
"Then why don't you see that the Medicine King Valley and the Shen family have found me Xuantian? only made Shen Qi a raft, and expelled him from the division and the family tree, he would rather target a junior, but he didn't dare to find the real culprit and avenge the old valley master? ”
"I don't know, I think your Shen family is not courageous."
Before the words fell, Shen Huan suddenly raised his head, "...... Sect Leader Xi said carefully! ”
“……”
This was the first time Xi Yutang had seen Shen Huan show such a fierce and hateful gaze today, and almost instantly, she was keenly aware of the murderous aura on the sloppy middle-aged man in front of her.
Xi Yutang was sure that this murderous aura was not aimed at her.
Sure enough, Shen Huan didn't doubt it...... The momentum and killing intent of this body really don't seem like an ordinary person who can only serve medicinal herbs can have.
It seems that subverting the Medicine King Valley is not impossible, is it?
