Chapter 33: On the Right Way of the Antidote (32)
Ye Shenyu followed the escaped Gu Master and chased him out of the courtyard all the way. She didn't rush to catch someone, or make up for it, and stuck far behind.
She retracted her breath completely, and the person being tracked fled in a hurry without looking back, and she never noticed that she was following her. After escaping some distance from the courtyard, he slowed down more and more.
Ye Shenyu also had to slow down with him, and after about half an hour, the Gu master who was pretending to be a disciple jumped into a village next to the official road.
After Ye Shenyu entered, he jumped on the wall and looked at Zhuangzi a few times. Zhuangzi is not big, and there are only two courtyards before and after. Ye Shenyu went directly to the backyard, and sure enough, he heard a voice in the largest room.
She avoided the guards in the yard and jumped from the back of the house to the roof, listening to the people inside.
“…… Really? ”
"Returning to the Venerable, that woman is indeed extremely high in martial arts, and there is no one in the Central Plains who can match it, I am afraid that the sect leader will have to take action himself. In addition, she seemed to know the corpse Gu very well, and her subordinates thought that those Gu worms could haunt them for a while, but who expected that after she came, she took out the fire fold and threw it into the insect swarm, burning all the Gu worms to death. In the end, the voice gritted its teeth and was quite unwilling.
Ye Shenyu thought to herself, she hadn't seen anyone put so many Gu worms together, for fear that they wouldn't burn clean?
"It's not strange to know that Gu worms are afraid of fire." The person who was called "Venerable" said, "But there are very few people who know that corpse Gu is flammable, and she is likely to be a Gu master...... Didn't she say that she was the eldest daughter of Excalibur Villa? ”
"It's the eldest daughter of Shenjian Villa, but she's always been with the palace master of Huanhua Palace. Huanhua Palace has been secretly guarding against the Bliss Sect, and her subordinates suspect that it was Yue Liying who let her go to the village to learn how to deal with corpse Gu. ”
Venerable pondered for a while and said, "Then there is no need to deal with him in a hurry, the deity has already obtained the Snow Shadow Sword and taken out the fragment of sword intent in it. As long as the fragment of sword intent is penetrated, the Huanhua Palace and the woman are not afraid. ”
"Congratulations to the Sect Master......"
Ye Shenyu stepped on the tiles and frowned, didn't the Snow Shadow Sword have already been returned to the Divine Sword Villa, this Venerable ......
The system opened its mouth: [When you and Yue Liying entered the other courtyard, the Snow Shadow Sword was snatched away. 】
Ye Shenyu: [Was it snatched away by this Venerable, that's it.] She's already here, and she shouldn't miss any more fish.
Ye Shenyu jumped from under the roof and landed right between the two guards. The guard didn't see his face clearly, and there was an extra line of blood on his throat.
Ye Shenyu put away the knife and directly pushed the door open. There were only two men in the room, one sitting at the top with a broken blade in his hand, and the other bowing down to him.
Suddenly the door was pushed open, and the man at the top looked up and exclaimed, "Who?" After seeing Ye Shenyu's face and the long knife in her hand, he said in a deep voice: "It turned out to be Miss Ye." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at his subordinate reproachfully.
Ye Shenyu's gaze fell on the broken blade in his hand, it should be a sword, the blade was bright and sharp.
The man with the broken blade noticed her gaze and said quietly: "This should indeed be something from the Excalibur Villa, but the girl probably also knows that the Excalibur Villa may not be able to protect it." ”
"If the girl is willing, the deity is willing to give other compensation......"
Ye Shenyu glanced at him lightly and interrupted him: "I know you don't plan to pay it back." "She wants something, and she never talks to anyone about whether she wants it or not.
She spoke calmly, but the man was creepy and bounced off his seat. However, it was too late, and the girl's cold voice was still floating in the air, and the long knife had already been handed over.
The man's eyes reflected the light of the blade, and he raised his hand to block it, but a chill was already stained on his neck. The blade slashed through his throat, not even a trace of blood came out.
The corpse slowly slipped from the chair, and the subordinates shouted in anger: "Your Excellency! ”
"Boom!" The body fell heavily to the ground.
Ye Shenyu stood in front of the corpse and lowered his eyes, and a shadow suddenly appeared in the placket of his clothes, hitting her face straight away.
……………………………………
The people of the Huanhua Palace knelt on the ground, and Yueli Shadow paced back and forth expressionlessly. After the fan in his hand was flipped twice, he said in a cold voice: "Go and check if there are any people who have just moved over within a hundred miles radius of Guanzhou City, and who came in and out of the kitchen on the day of the party in the flower hall of Shenjian Villa." ”
"Yes!"
Yue Liying paused and asked, "Have you seen Ye Shenyu?" ”
The disciple who was asked looked dazed: "Didn't Miss Ye enter the other courtyard with you, the palace master?" ”
“…… That's it. Yue Liying pressed a folding fan against her forehead, feeling that she was also confused. No matter where Ye Shenyu went, as long as she wasn't here, who knew what he did? It just so happened that the Snow Shadow Sword was snatched away, and he went to snatch the sword back and get the sword intent fragment.
Even if Ye Shenyu asked him to change the sword back later, it would be a big deal for him to return the Sword Villa......
Yue Liying slowly lowered the folding fan, yes, why didn't he give it back to Excalibur Villa?
He hooked his lips and smiled, and then smiled again, and said to the disciples of Huanhua Palace: "Don't check it yet!" ”
The disciples dispersed in an instant, and Yue Liying had a plan, and turned around to go into the other courtyard to see if there were any clues.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Feng Nan walking over with a group of people.
The kind old man's face was serious at this time, and he spoke before he got closer: "Moon Palace Lord, the Snow Shadow Sword has been taken away again, I'm afraid it has something to do with people outside the border." Those Gu worms in the courtyard are really terrifying, if anyone who doesn't understand Gu worms encounters them, they will be poisoned. Eradicating the Bliss Cult alone cannot remove the scourge, and the culprits must be caught. ”
He arched his hand and said: "It's a matter of martial arts, and I ask the palace master to lead me and others to find out who is behind the scenes, regardless of previous suspicions." ”
Moon Leaving Shadow: "......"
He raised an eyebrow: "I'll lead you?" ”
Feng Nan said: "I have already made an appointment before that whoever is other than the Bliss Sect will be the leader of the alliance. The palace master killed Tong Haokong, and he deserved to be the leader of this alliance, and he was a gentleman with the heart of a villain before. ”
"I'm afraid it's because I can be used now that I am the leader of this alliance." Ye Shenyu was not there, and Yue Liying didn't deliberately say anything to mock, but said, "I'm afraid that after this matter passes, I, the palace master of Huanhua Palace, will become the one who should be shouted and killed again." ”
Feng Nan was a little embarrassed, but fortunately, he had already prepared, and said twice: "The palace master said ...... laughing"
"I have been suspicious of the Moon Palace Master several times, but the Palace Master has rescued our disciples regardless of his previous suspicions. We know that the palace master is a human being, how can we think that the palace master is a treacherous person? ”
"If anyone is suspicious of the palace master, I, Feng Nan, will be the first to refuse!"
Yue Liying looked at Feng Nan, who was awe-inspiring in front of him: "......"
