Chapter 188: Weird
"Cut!Earth Sea Rank Martial Artist, what about it?, I don't believe that a few of our elders can't do this little girl together!" the grumpy Fifth Elder scolded, rubbing his white beard angrily.
The old man with round glasses suddenly glanced at him dissatisfiedly, and said mockingly: "Do you think that you can defeat the Earth Sea Rank just by relying on your violent temper and mouth cannon?
"Are you laughing at me? What about you? aren't you an old turtle crawling on four legs and wearing reading glasses?" the five elders widened their eyes with rage, and returned a tooth for a tooth.
"Say it again!" The round glasses elder's face suddenly turned cold, and a powerful martial arts aura permeated his body.
"Yo, the old turtle is going crazy, do you want to hear it again?" Seeing that the other party was angry, the fifth elder did not show any fear, but his tone became more and more provocative.
Seeing the strong smell of gunpowder between the two, the second elder boss blushed, his eyebrows furrowed, and scolded: "Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder, you all calm down for me." All of you are more than 100 years old, and you are still so naΓ―ve and impulsive? What kind of system do you have when you quarrel when you meet all day long? If you give it to the descendants of the family, won't you lose the face of our elders' hall?"
Hearing the second elder's reprimand, the two immediately quieted down, but they still stared at each other with a look of unconvincing.
"Compared with the Earth Sea Rank, the Xuanhu Level is indeed too much worse, but even if this Li Xiaoke has the strength of the Earth Sea Level, it is impossible to directly fight against the entire Song family, not to mention the Great Guardian Array, even if the Great Elder and the Family Master join forces, it is not something she can fight against. The second elder's face was quite confident, his tone was affirmative, he paused, his expression was a little suspicious, and he said softly: "However, what I'm worried about is that she refuses to confront us directly, but is playing tricks behind her back, in that case, our Song family will be more troublesome." β
Everyone nodded in agreement, and indeed, it felt like having a hen on a farm at home, and there was always a cunning fox wandering around the farm. And this woman is not as simple as a fox, but a fierce wolf or a tiger.
Last time, they stole the Shui Xuan Stick and Haina Heart Secret, and this time they seriously injured the young master, and the Fierce Fang team was almost completely wiped out, and these two attacks have already sounded the warning bell on the heads of all the elders present.
"Did she just steal the Water Xuan Stick and Haina Heart Tricks, I always felt that she approached the Song ,......family with some purpose," the Third Elder said in a low voice.
"I also have this hunch that she will continue to attack the Song family in order to achieve her goal. Last time, the San Miguel Mansion not only lost the Water Stick and the Henna Heart, but also the underground treasure house. That traitor Song He seems to be just a cover to disturb everyone's sight, there are other people behind the scenes who are plotting to steal the things of the underground treasure house, and the mastermind behind this is definitely not Song He and that Li Xiaoke woman, but someone else!" the second elder said in a deep voice.
"Someone else?, who has the ability to instigate Li Xiaoke and Song He to do things for him?" the fifth elder hurriedly asked.
"This is just speculation, there is no evidence yet, but this possibility is very likely, the traitor Song He fell into the abyss, there are no bones, and there is no way to get information from him, and this Li Xiaoke is the key to the incident, only through her, can we find the mastermind behind the scenes. Maybe it's her, but either way, we're going to have to get this woman caught. The Second Elder said.
"What exactly is missing from the underground treasure house?" I still don't know......" asked the fourth elder with round glasses.
"It's not just you, we don't know. Only the Great Elder knows about what is in the underground treasure store, but the Great Elder is in retreat, and we can't ask her, so this question can only be saved until after she is out of the realm. The second elder said helplessly.
"What about the head of the family, is this clear?" the third elder asked.
"Heh, the prodigal son will know? He knows all day long to fool around, and he also takes sowing the whole world as the highest ideal, which is simply a shame on the family. As soon as the fifth elder heard the name of the head of the family, he immediately showed a mocking sneer.
"Fifth Elder, what do you mean by saying that the head of the family is so unbearable?" the Fourth Elder said slowly.
"I'm just looking for a chance to scare me, right? I'm telling the truth, the prodigal son's magnificent deeds, who doesn't know how many of us here?"
Everyone fell silent, and the elders were indeed full of helplessness about this free-spirited, unrestrained family master. The head of the family always likes to go out to play debauchery, and often can't find anyone, and every once in a while, a woman of unknown origin in the family will come to the door and say that she is the mistress or girlfriend of the head of the Song family, which makes the clan quite helpless.
If it weren't for the unrestrained character of the head of the family, the prestige of the Song family in the Jiangnan region would definitely rank first among the eight major families in Jiangnan, at least that's what the people in the Elder Hall thought.
"You see, his son has been seriously injured for a few days, when did he come back to visit the young master? Just to greet him through a video call, does this make sense?" The fifth elder chattered, "Don't you still think about which woman is reluctant to come back?" The prodigal son probably forgot even what his son's name was!"
"Fifth Elder, don't say it so absolutely!" the second elder frowned, and snorted coldly, "Although the head of the family is informal, he has never dropped the chain at a critical time, the head of the family has his own arrangements, we can do our duty in the elder hall, don't interfere too much." Well, let's not talk about him. Let's go back to the problems we have to solve now, first: to cure the young master, second: to track down Li Xiaoke and the masterminds behind the whole thing, and to find out their purpose, and third: to find out the things in the underground treasure house, but this matter has to wait for the great elder to come out. β
"Okay, we'll listen to the Second Elder's orders in this matter. The three elders said in unison.
"Well, let's go back to the Elder Hall and discuss it in detail, and the personnel and tasks will be arranged when the time comes. The second elder said that, he waved his hand, ended the discussion, and let the elders leave on their own.
Suddenly, the white-bearded Fifth Elder turned around and wondered, "Second Elder, what about the casualties of those monsters in the Fierce Fang Group?"
When the second elder heard this, he made an OK gesture.
"What? do you mean they're fine?" the fifth elder looked happy.
"Didn't you see me put up three fingers? I mean, out of the eight members of the fangs, only three survived, the rest were missing, and four were dead. The second elder said expressionlessly.
"This ......" the Fifth Elder's eyes widened and he gasped, "Hasn't the missing one been found yet?"
"It is possible that the murderer burned his bones to pieces, or he may have fallen into the cliff, but we sent a large number of people to search for the bottom of the cliff, and we did not find the body of the missing member of the Tooth team. β
"Monster, monster, ......," the fifth elder shook his head vigorously and muttered slowly away.
Only the Second Elder and the Third Elder were left, and they stood outside the glass of the ward and looked at Song Yuanzhi who was unconscious in the medical cabin.
The Third Elder suddenly spoke, "Second Elder, I have something I need to tell you. β
"What's the matter?" the second elder said lightly.
"It's about the young master, I found something strange in his blood...... The third elder had a solemn face, paused, looked around, found that there was no one else, and continued: "There is a residue of burning blood in his blood!"
When the Second Elder heard this, Gu Jing Bubo's face suddenly changed drastically, revealing a look of shock.
"Are you saying that he has been injected with the same incinerated blood as the Fierce Fang team? The incinerated blood has always been kept secret by our Elder Hall, and has never been open to the clan and used by the clan, even the head of the family does not know where the incinerated blood is kept, and he does not have the right to obtain the use of the incinerated blood. How did he get it, young master?"
"At present, there is no clue, and the cause of this matter must be investigated, after all, the matter of burning blood and leaking is not trivial, and if it is obtained by other malicious people, the consequences will be unimaginable. The Third Elder said.
"Well, this matter has to be secretly investigated and can't be publicized...... Second Elder pursed his lips, looked at Song Yuanzhi, his old face showed a burning color, and said helplessly: "Since the young master has taken the Burning Blood, then we must take good care of him in the future, don't let him lose his mind and follow in the footsteps of those members of the Fierce Tooth Team......"
......
In a large and dark cave, there are several torches, and under the light of the fire, the contents of the cave are revealed.
In the center of the cave was a large steel cauldron filled with liquid, and in the crucible sat a fat man.
His eyes were closed, and his expression was calm, as if he had fallen asleep.
This fat figure is Li Qi, under Luo Yi's treatment in the past few days, he has basically healed from his serious injuries, even the broken muscles and bones, and the damaged heart of Wu Yuan have also recovered, and the strength of the physical body has been enhanced, which can be regarded as broken and standing.
"Thanks to Senior Sister, not only has my body been repaired, but it can also help me increase my physical strength!" Li Qi clenched his fists, and the muscles of his whole body suddenly bulged slightly, and he felt the amazing power coming from his body, and his heart was very satisfied.
He looked down at his lower body, and found that his fat body had almost lost weight, and with a slight effort, the muscles on his arms became more and more obvious.
"Haha! Yes, if it goes on like this, I'm going to say goodbye to this fat body, and then I'll be thin like a red dragon diamond body, hahaha, don't you want me to lose thousands of girls?" Li Qi patted his stomach and looked up and laughed.
Li Qi jumped lightly and jumped out of the crucible. He was almost naked, wearing only a pair of boxers, but he didn't care, but looked his body up and down, and there was a smug look on his chubby face.
Suddenly, there was a danger warning from the murder talisman on his chest, and Li Qi suddenly turned around and found that two golden lights appeared in the darkness, which felt like two weird ghost fires.
"What is it?alien beasts?human?" Li Qi was shocked.
