Chapter 690: Tracking the Elder of the Past
"Girl, there is no need to be anxious about this matter, everything is based on your orders." Elder Qu said slowly.
"I know Elder Zhong is a little puzzled, why I am meeting you all in this courtyard. Actually, Elder Qu already knew about this a few days ago, and I think he had already told the other elders, and it was inconvenient for me to always go to your courtyard to look for you. Therefore, this matter has not been mentioned. The two people lying in this room were the two guards who had been seriously injured a few days ago. I thought they were all suffering from internal injuries, but I also saw them that day, and I thought that these days should be better. But when I came to visit them, I found out that they had been lying down for three days and had not woken up. One of the injuries was more severe, and it was normal for him not to wake up. However, the other one who should have woken up the next morning, lay down for three days without any improvement. After I checked his pulse, I found out that the Great Elder had given him Gu poison. Murong Xi slowly explained to Elder Zhong.
"Hit by Gu? Why is this happening? Elder Zhong asked suspiciously.
"Yes, the Great Elder poisoned one of them. It's not enough, it's no big deal now, I've solved the Gu for him. The reason why I have told you so much, I believe that as soon as you return to the yard from here, someone will come to your door and ask if you have any news. I was supposed to be in our courtyard to discuss with the elders about the matter, but I was worried that they would ask you what happened today. It happened to be arranged in this courtyard, and when you went back, if someone asked about you, you would say that it was because of the two guards, and you would gather the elders to find a way to unravel the guards. Murong Xi continued.
"I understand, we can't let others know about the news that we got the news of the Valley Lord of the Medicine King Valley, so it can easily reach the ears of the Great Elder. If it spreads, not only the valley master of the Medicine King Valley, but even our valley master will be poisoned by the Great Elder. Elder Zhong said slowly.
"Well, it's better for a few elders to live together and take care of each other, I'm afraid that the Great Elder will continue to attack the elders." Murong Xi thought for a while and said.
"Okay, after I go back, I'll discuss it with my clan relatives and rearrange the yard." Elder Qu said slowly.
"Well, since there is nothing else to do, the elders should go back to the courtyard first." Murong Xi said.
The four elders of the Medicine King Valley left the courtyard, leaving only Elder Zhong who refused to leave.
"Elder Zhong, do you have something to say to me?" Murong Xi asked.
"How could the Great Elder give Gu to that guard for no reason? And listening to the meaning of the little valley master, he just gave Gu to one of them, right? Elder Zhong asked.
"Well, we originally thought that the Great Elder would disdain to kill these two people, but in fact, he just wanted to kill them later. The night breeze in it, if I hadn't sealed the acupoints with silver needles and connected the ribs in time, the ribs would have pierced the heart and lungs at that time. And the reason why the other one looked at the injury was not too serious was that he was poisoned by the Great Elder. His purpose is to make us ignore this of the middle Gu because of the night wind, and when the time comes, we will not be able to solve the Gu, but because the time is too long and the delay in understanding the Gu will not be able to save him. Murong Xi said slowly.
"Damn! What should I say if someone really waited for me to go back and immediately came to me and asked me? Elder Zhong was worried that he was wrong, so he asked.
"According to what I just said, let's talk about discussing the matter of leaving the Gu at night. The Gu poison on Yeli's body has been resolved, and I'm worried that person will go back and ask about catching the medicine. Murong Xi said slowly.
"Okay, then I'll go back now." Elder Zhong left the courtyard.
"Xi'er, will that person really go to Elder Zhong's courtyard?" Feng Mingye was a little puzzled, how could this person be so deeply hidden, how could he expose himself so easily.
"I guess that the first person to go to Elder Zhong was Elder Gu. But the elder should not be the one who betrayed the Medicine King Valley, just like Ah Ye said, this person is hiding so deeply, how can he be so stupid and so easy to expose himself? Murong Xi said slightly.
"So, since Xi'er knows that Elder Gu is not, why does she have to remind Elder Zhong again and again?" Feng Mingye asked.
Murong Xi thought for a while and said, "Because, if you follow the way, the elder will find that person." I have already sent someone to keep an eye on Elder Zhong, and when the time comes, Elder will know who that person really is. ”
"Well, I hope everything will go well." Feng Mingye said.
Sure enough, Elder Zhong had just returned to the courtyard for less than a quarter of an hour, so the elder found Elder Zhong's courtyard as if he had smelled a smell.
"Senior brother, I heard that the little valley master summoned a few of you elders to come over, is there any news of our valley master?" So the elder sat aside and asked.
Elder Zhong stared at the old elder for a long time, and after taking a sip of tea, he said, "This time I met the little valley master in the courtyard of a guard. Do you remember when you saw off Yunlan that day, two of the guards were seriously injured? ”
Therefore, the elder's face showed doubt, and Elder Zhong could see it, so the elder did not seem to be pretending.
So the elder said, "Of course, I remember that one of the guards was in danger, and it seemed that he was about to die. ”
"Actually, it was for this matter that the little valley lord summoned several of our elders over today. One of the guards was poisoned...... "Elder Zhong also relayed what Murong Xi told him to the old elder.
After hearing this, the elder said slowly: "It turned out that it was because of a guard, I thought there was news of our valley master." Anyway, this person has been poisoned by Gu, doesn't the little valley master have the ability to solve the Gu? Why do you have to summon a few of you? ”
Therefore, the elder obviously didn't believe what Elder Zhong said in full force, so he asked Elder Zhong in a puzzled tone.
"How could the little valley master not have the ability to unravel the Gu, I just want our elders to be more careful next. Even if you stay in the valley, you can't avoid falling for the Great Elder's plot. Those elders in the Medicine King Valley lived more scattered, and the little valley lord meant to let them reallocate the courtyard and live more centrally. And I want to remind you not to go out, and you must be careful when you go out. Elder Zhong said leisurely.
"It turned out that it was because of this incident, I thought I had news from the valley master, so I hurriedly ran over and asked if you needed help." So the elder said.
"You're well-informed, I just got back to the yard, and you're here." Elder Zhong said.
"I'm also in a hurry, I heard that the little valley master is discussing something with you, so I'm going to come over and ask you quickly." So the elder said.
"Today's discussion is about this matter, if there is news from the valley master, how can I not inform you as soon as possible?" Elder Zhong said with some impatience.
"Okay, then remember to tell your junior brother when you have news. Then the junior brother will go back to the courtyard first, senior brother, don't forget. After the elder finished speaking, he got up and left Elder Zhong's courtyard.
Elder Zhong shook his head, very disappointed in his heart. However, after thinking about it, the elder didn't believe that he was the one who betrayed the Medicine King Valley. But who is behind all this?
Elder Zhong was also at a loss, but he really didn't want his former senior brother to do such a thing. And he thinks that someone may have instructed the late elder to do this behind his back.
So, after the old elder had left, he got up and tried to follow. At this moment, a man in black descended from the sky, and then said, "Elder Zhong, our people will continue to follow Elder Chen, your rash actions like this will not only ruin the plan, but also be easy to be discovered." Miss instructed us to protect you and Elder Wen. ”
Elder Zhong stood in front of the courtyard gate and heard the words of the man in black, then turned around and returned to the courtyard.
And by the time he turned and walked back, the man in black was gone.
The man in black had been following the old elder, but the old elder did not go anywhere else, but returned directly to his courtyard.
Therefore, as soon as the elder stepped into the room, he said softly: "Little valley master, they don't have the whereabouts of the valley master at all, so I will say that your news is unreliable. ”
The people in the room said slowly: "Since there is no news from the valley master, why did you find Senior Brother Zhong to discuss things for no reason?" ”
"Isn't that little girl's guard wounded? Although one of them was not seriously injured, he was poisoned. She seems to have been unraveling his Gu for the past few days, and then summoned the elders to let us be careful when we go in and out. Therefore, the elder said slowly.
"So that's it? Is it really that simple? The man asked, as if he didn't seem to believe Elder So's words.
The man in black found out on the roof that the person sitting there talking to the old elder was one of the elders of the Poison Medicine Valley, Elder Fan.
"Senior Brother Zhong's everything is based on the affairs of the valley, since he has the whereabouts of the valley master, how can he hide it?" Elder Zhong said slowly.
"I'm worried that girl is hiding this from Elder Zhong." Elder Fan said with a disdainful smile.
"I said Senior Brother Fan, you are multi-hearted. How many people did that girl bring with her? She now has people counting on our Poison Medicine Valley and Medicine King Valley to save people, and when there is news, I wish we all knew about it, so how could we hide it? I know that you are as unconvinced by this girl as I am, so I want to wait for the valley master to come back and discuss the matter with him about the valley master. However, now that the valley lord is not coming back, no matter what we say, it is useless. Senior Brother Zhong is now obedient to that girl, have you forgotten that he took a few of us to the door to apologize to the girl? Let that girl do the magic for a few days, and then it's not too late to clean her up when the valley master comes back. "It seems that the old elder is a very stingy person, and this incident has made him angry.
"Well, I just hope to hear from the valley lord soon. Actually, I'm also worried that that girl will hide something from Senior Brother Zhong. However, you should also be more restrained, after all, that girl is also a candidate who is very recognized by the valley master. Since there's nothing to do, I'll go back first. "As soon as Elder Fan heard that Murong Xi and the others hadn't gotten any news at all, he immediately wanted to leave the old elder's place.
"Why, don't you want to play chess with me?" So the elder asked.
"There has been no news from the valley master, where am I still in the mood to play chess with you? I'll go back first, and remember to let me know as soon as there is news. Elder Fan got up and quickly left the courtyard of the old elder.
When the man in black saw Elder Fan leaving, he quickly went back to report to Murong Xi.
