Chapter 247: The Elders Talk
The matter of Su Mo coming to the No. 1 Medicine Garden did not cause the slightest movement, because except for Che Chuling, who was injured and couldn't get out of bed, everyone in the No. 1 Medicine Garden was full of praise for Su Mo, and no one would report the matter at all.
Even in the past few days, everyone has been very enthusiastic about Helian Liruo, and even some medicine garden caretakers came to ask Su Mo's birthday, saying that they felt that they and Su Mo were a match made in heaven, which made Helian Liruo very speechless.
In the past few days when Che Chuling couldn't get out of bed, Helian Liruo, with the help of Tang Ke'er, completed the transformation of the two pieces of land without much effort, and planted the seeds of Gesang fruit in it.
At the same time, in a magnificent main hall of the Imperial Sword Gate, several people were sitting in it with serious expressions, and the entire hall was filled with a feeling of suffocation.
The seats on the main seat are vacant, and there are ten seats below, and tea and pastries are placed next to the seats, but all ten of them have solemn expressions and don't have the heart to taste them at all.
Among these ten people, one of them was the person in charge of the original recruitment of new disciples by the Imperial Sword Sect, the Ten Elders of the Imperial Sword Sect: Li Jianchen.
I saw Li Jianchen slowly speak: "Elders, now that there is a problem with the Phantom Holy Orchid, then this time, the disciples will definitely suffer heavy losses, and I would like to ask the elders to come up with an idea for this matter." ”
From everyone's expressions, it could already be judged that this matter was imminent, but the Ten Elders still maintained his usual unhurried tone.
A hot-tempered elder spoke: "Come out, come out with a mother's idea, sixth brother, you said that what medicinal herbs in your medicine garden are sick, but they have harmed the Phantom Holy Lan, do you covet the position of this sect master, and hope that our door master will die, so that he can replace him?"
The person who was called the sixth elder was the manager of the No. 6 Elder Pavilion and the sixth elder of the Imperial Sword Gate, he was so slandered, he directly slapped the table with red eyes: "Let your mother's fart, Fifth Elder, the situation of the door master is not optimistic now, and my mother is the same, I finally issued a mission to seek the four-grade healing elixir, I want to see if it can work, what have you done?"
"What can I do, what can I do? We spent time recruiting a group of nominal disciples, just to find out what is going on in the Ghost Domain Forest now, it's better for you to kill the Phantom Saint Lan, didn't you let the disciples die in vain?"
"It's easy to say, even if the Phantom Saint Lan doesn't die, if you make all the preparations, you can guarantee their lives?"
"At least we have made preparations, not to mention anything else, there will be no mistakes in the talisman seal of our Five Elders Pavilion!"
"The world is as black as a crow, since you plan to let them die, you still have to say how noble you are, and you don't feel disgusting. ”
When he said this, not only the five elders, but even the other elders present also showed embarrassment.
The fifth elder clapped the case: "Sixth, I think you are not convinced, and you want to fight, right?"
The fifth elder and the sixth elder quarreled so much that their faces were red, and the seventh elder came out to play a round.
The two elder brothers said a few words, the matter has happened, and it will not help to hold anyone responsible, it is better to think of a way. ”
The Sixth Elder Pavilion is in charge of the Medicine Garden, and the Seventh Elder Pavilion is in charge of alchemy, and the two of them have been moving around frequently and have a good relationship, and when they heard the Seventh Elder speak, the Sixth Elder snorted coldly, and he didn't speak.
It's just that he looked at the eyes of the five elders as if he had shot out a few steel nails.
The Great Elder, who had not spoken for a long time, was an old man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, often holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, looking kind and kind, he slowly spoke: "No one has taken the task until now?"
"Yes, big brother, no one answered. The Sixth Elder replied.
The second elder said, "Otherwise, how about our major elder pavilions collectively issue tasks?"
The grumpy Fifth Elder spoke again: "Second brother, the first task is released collectively, so I don't know what to tell others, is there something wrong with our Imperial Sword Gate?"
Everyone fell silent again for a while.
To put it into account, this happened two months ago.
At that time, the disciples of Danzong, Yujianmen, and Zangjing Hall went to the Ghost Domain Forest to carry out a mission, and as a result, they inadvertently discovered a species from the ancient period there: Brother Pingtou.
Brother Pingtou is a kind of demon beast handed down from ancient times, known as the "Prince of the Dry Fight", according to legend, Brother Pingtou is the only beast that has made itself extinct.
It is very vindictive, and its character is not afraid of the sky and the earth, in its eyes, everyone is a head shorter than it, as long as you provoke it, then it will definitely make you regret coming to this world.
The demon beasts in the ancient period were still the kind that could be promoted, not to mention a medium-sized city like Platinum City, a large city, or even the capital of the spiritual realm, which would make people chase after it fanatically.
It's hard to say that Brother Pingtou's strength in the future can surpass the top powerhouses in the Xuanyuan Continent.
Afraid that the news would leak out, the leaders of the three major forces directly blocked the news and arranged for many core disciples to go to the Ghost Domain Forest to find out.
I thought to myself: If one or two flat-headed brothers can be tamed, it will be a great blessing for the forces, and maybe this will become the cornerstone for them to step into a large city.
If this news was not discovered during the joint mission of the three major forces, then they must have suppressed the news and their own forces enjoyed the fruits exclusively.
I just didn't think that there would be a big problem this time.
The person who went to lead the team from the Imperial Sword Gate was the wife of the Sixth Elder: Liang Qingyun, her cultivation had reached the ninth rank of Wuzun, and she thought that it was just a task that was easy to perform and was easy to perform, but she almost died.
In the middle of the Ghost Forest, it has become unrecognizable, there is no life there, and it is all surrounded by a strange black aura.
These black qi is very rampant, and they attack when they see living things, and none of the more than 500 disciples who went to the three major forces that time survived, and it is said that all of them have become living dead who are not human ghosts or ghosts.
And the three people who led the team at that time, Danzong and the steward of the Tibetan Scripture Hall fell, Liang Qingyun was infected by black qi and escaped with various means, but she didn't expect that after she desperately fled back to the Imperial Sword Gate, the possessed black qi suddenly burst out of her body, and invaded the main body of the door when the master of the Imperial Sword Gate was defenseless.
With the cooperation of the elders of the Imperial Sword Gate, the two of them sealed all the meridians in their bodies, barely saving their lives for a while, but they could only last for half a year.
Those black qi are very corrosive, and at the same time, they are eating away at the vitality of the two of them little by little, and the top management of the Imperial Sword Gate has tried every means to eliminate the black qi from the two of them, and these black qi seem to have taken root in the two of them.
On the surface, everything is normal in the Imperial Sword Gate, but in fact, the high-level officials in the Imperial Sword Gate are already in a hurry.
Of course, for the other two major forces, they only knew that Liang Qingyun's life was not long, but they didn't know that the master of the Imperial Sword Gate had also encountered an accident, if they knew it, now they were afraid that they would not join forces to fight against the black qi, but turn around and eat away at the resources of their Imperial Sword Gate.
The three major forces are expanding the recruitment of outer disciples this time, just to lead this group of people deep into the Ghost Domain Forest to see if they can find a way to suppress the black qi, and by the way, to see if the more than 500 disciples who became the living dead before are still in the Ghost Domain Forest.
The reason why they want to recruit new disciples is because this is a job that can kill at any time, and it is not easy for the three major forces in Platinum City to cultivate usable disciples, and they will never let those disciples die in vain and break their foundation.
After all, if they fall, countless forces behind them will target their resources and crush them.
In this way, the only way to hastily recruit outer disciples is to be the vanguard of the charge.
The ten elders present each had their own calculations in their hearts, and their thoughts were tumbling in their hearts at this time, some of them were sincerely considering the door master and Liang Qingyun, some were pretending to be coy, and some of them couldn't see what they were thinking at all from their faces.
For example, the current Third Elder is sitting there, not saying a word from beginning to end, and you can't tell what he is thinking.
In the end, the Great Elder clapped the board: "Since the news of the healing of the Phantom Holy Lan has issued a mission by the Six Elders Pavilion, let's wait, if there is really no one to answer it at that time, we will have to go to the Ghost Domain Forest to break through." ”
At the same time, a teenager was galloping in the direction of Platinum City.
Next to the boy was a young girl dressed in a pink and green tight-fitting dress that looked like a lotus flower blooming in a pond.
She has a very good figure, the well-cut clothes outline her delicate figure just right, the face is slightly powdered, the white and tender skin is ruddy, and the body shows all the styles of a woman, she has a pair of melancholy eyes, and her eyes are full of cute and pitiful temperament.
The speed of the boy was extremely fast, and the girl did not fall behind him in the slightest, and it seemed that it did not take much effort to catch up with the speed of the boy.
Behind the two of them, there were about thirty people, and among these thirty or so people, there was a middle-aged man in a sackcloth shirt, if Su Mo and a few people were here, they would definitely exclaim: Isn't this the person who took Moyu away in the first place, what is it...... Second lady of the people.
He led more than a dozen people to follow behind the girl in pink and green clothes.
Next to this middle-aged man, there is also a person, this person is a young girl, wearing a black dress, looking a little unsmiling, she looks at the linen clothes with a cold look in the ancient well, and wants to belong to the same camp as the linen clothes.
The girl in black followed behind the boy with more than a dozen people.
The young man was dressed in a dark purple shirt, his face looked as if it had been carefully carved, and his whole body exuded an innate nobility.
That's right, the person who is galloping in the direction of Platinum City is Moyu, who has not appeared for a long time, and the girl standing side by side with him is the lover chosen for him by his father's second wife: Xie Sisi.
After running for a long time, a thin layer of sweat was on Xie Sisi's tender white neck, she raised her hand to wipe it, and said softly: "Brother Yu, how long will it take to get to Platinum City?"
The expression on Mo Yu's face did not change in the slightest, and he replied, "Only I go to Platinum City!"
