Chapter 698: Elder Fan's doubts
Elder Zhong was immersed in Murong Xi's words, and finally he asked with a shocked expression, "Gu Master, are they safe?"
Murong Xi said, "What Elder Zhong said is right, Master Gong and they have been saved, but we need to confuse the eyes of the Great Elder. When he knew that we didn't know anything about Shigong's rescue, he must have doubts in his heart about who rescued Shigong. ”
"The subordinates of the little valley lord fully understand, the valley lord and they are safe, so I can rest assured." Elder Zhong said with a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, the arrival of Murong Xi this time attracted the attention of the old elder. After he received the news, he hurried to Elder Fan's courtyard.
"Senior brother, that girl is now in Senior Brother Zhong's courtyard, I don't know if she has already gotten the news of the valley master." Therefore, the elder hurriedly said.
Elder Fan said slowly, "I don't know if the little valley master has news of our valley master this time, why didn't she gather all the elders to discuss?" ”
"Hmph, she must have hated us for making her ugly in the main courtyard that day, so she met Senior Brother Zhong alone. How can such a person be worthy to be our valley master? When the valley lord returns, I will definitely sue him well. Therefore, the elder said indignantly.
Don't you know that as soon as the words fell, I saw a disciple standing outside the room and said, "Elder, just now Elder Zhong sent someone over to ask the elder to come over and say that there is something important to discuss. ”
Hearing this, Elder Fan hurriedly looked at Elder Fan, who waved his hand and said, "Got it." ”
"It seems that Senior Brother thinks this matter is very important, so he invited us over. Presumably the little valley owner has news from the valley master, let's go. After Elder Fan finished speaking, he got up and took the old elder to Elder Zhong's courtyard with him.
When Elder Fan arrived at Elder Zhong's house, he found that all the people in the room had already arrived, except for Elder Wen.
Elder Zhong looked at Elder Fan and the old elder who came together, and he had a number in his heart, it seemed that he was really guessed correctly by the little valley master, and this old elder knew that she had come to his courtyard early on. After Elder Zhong ordered someone to serve tea, he spoke: "Therefore, Senior Brother, it turns out that you are with Senior Brother Fan, and I said that the disciple who went to deliver the news said that you are not in the courtyard. ”
Therefore, the elder hurriedly said: "Yes, if you are bored, you will chat with Senior Brother Fan." I don't know what the senior brother asked us to come over to discuss? ”
"You see you're in a hurry, didn't I say last time that if there is news from the valley master, I will notify you as soon as possible?" Elder Zhong said with a slight smile.
Elder Fan and Elder Fan glanced at each other, and Elder Fan said, "There is news of the valley lord so soon?" Where is the valley lord locked up now? What does the little valley master command? ”
"The little valley lord does not allow us to act rashly, now is not the time to save people, when it is confirmed, we will immediately set out to rescue the valley lord and others." Elder Zhong said slowly.
Elder Fan frowned slightly, so the elder saw it in his eyes and hurriedly asked, "What does Little Valley Master mean by this?" When the valley master disappeared for a long time, we were all very anxious. Now that I've finally gotten the news, why wait? Senior brother, why don't we join forces to rescue the valley master first, and see what else she has to say. ”
"I summoned you here this time, just to tell you that the valley master has news, and everything must wait for the valley master's order. Why are you so anxious again? Elder Zhong observed Elder Fan's demeanor as he spoke, he knew that Elder Fan was just unconvinced by Murong Xi, but Elder Fan was different. Sure enough, the expression on Elder Fan's face when he heard the news was a little shocked, but he returned to normal in an instant.
It seems that this time it was guessed by Murong Xi again. Elder Fan had already known that the valley lord and the others had been rescued, but they said that they had only now received news from the valley master. That's why Elder Fan was so surprised.
"Am I not worried about the safety of the valley master? I don't know what kind of heart this little valley master has, with the whereabouts of the valley owner, he should deploy as soon as possible to rescue the valley master, why wait? Isn't it more dangerous to wait and wait? Therefore, the elder was worried that Elder Zhong suspected his intentions, so he hurriedly explained.
"If you have any opinions, I will go and discuss with the little valley master when the time comes." Elder Zhong said.
"Senior brother, it's not that I disrespect the little valley master. It's just that people have been missing for a long time, and we shouldn't be so procrastinating. Isn't she doing this with ulterior motives? Therefore, the elder said unconvinced.
"Do you think that the little grain lord is targeting you because of the events of that day?" Elder Zhong asked with a snort.
"Isn't it? You can also see what kind of attitude she has towards those elders in the Medicine King Valley, and she treats us so coldly. If she didn't want to treat the Poison Doctor Valley as a family, why did she need to occupy the position of the valley master? So the elder crackled.
Elder Zhong sneered and said, "Senior Brother, I know that you have always been dissatisfied with the Valley Lord's decision. However, Xi'er girl is a person personally recognized by the valley owner. When we were in the Qilin Pharmacy, the valley master also sent a message for her. You target the little valley master everywhere, so you are not afraid that the valley master will ask for guilt after he returns? ”
Elder Zhong knew the old elder too well, not only was he small, but he also resented the little valley master for not giving them face to the elders that day. In the final analysis, the most unbearable thing is that the position of the valley master did not choose a person from the poison doctor valley, but an outsider. Although he never refuted the Gu Lord's order, he was also very puzzled by the Gu Lord's choice of Murong Xi as the Valley Lord. However, after a few days of contact, he had already decided that the valley master's choice was not wrong. And the Poison Medicine Valley and the Medicine King Valley must be handed over to this girl, and I'm afraid that only this girl can deal with the Great Elder.
Therefore, the elder hurriedly explained: "Senior Brother Zhong, you can't buckle this hat indiscriminately. I have never complained about the Gu Lord's orders, let alone questioned Murong Xi's ability. I just think that it would be good to leave the affairs of our valley to our own people, so why do we have to act together with the people of the Medicine King Valley? ”
"More than a hundred people from the Medicine King Valley have disappeared, and the valley master of the Medicine King Valley, you don't know his identity, according to the past, it is our master. And when the Valley of the Poison Doctor and the Valley of the Medicine King were not decaying, they never separated each other. The Medicine King Valley is in trouble, how can we stand idly by? Didn't you say the same thing the other day, and forgot about it so quickly? "Elder Zhong made the brainless old elder angry. However, in the face of Elder Fan's existence, he couldn't say it directly to Elder Fan.
Elder Fan, who hadn't spoken for a long time, finally spoke: "What Senior Brother said is very true, we will wait for the news of the Little Valley Master. It's just that something so big happened, shouldn't we inform Senior Brother Wen? Although, he was kicked out of the Poison Doctor Valley by the Little Valley Lord, he was always a member of the Poison Doctor Valley. Besides, the valley lord is kind to us, no matter what he says, he should also contribute, right? ”
Elder Zhong looked at Elder Fan in a daze, he didn't expect Elder Fan to mention Senior Brother Wen at this time, he was not ready to explain, he just looked at Elder Fan and smiled. Elder Fan frowned slightly, and heard Elder Wen's smiling voice sound: "Hehe, Senior Brother Fan, is you missing Senior Brother?" As Elder Wen's voice remembered, Elder Fan looked over. I saw Elder Wen holding a plate in his hand, and there seemed to be roasted sweet potatoes on the plate.
"Is this ......," the elder asked.
"Hehe, I'm late. A few days ago, I planted some sweet potatoes in the yard, which happened to be dug up and specially roasted and brought over for you to try. Elder Wen said as he walked up to Elder Zhong.
"Senior brother, our valley master hasn't been found yet, do you still have the heart to bake sweet potatoes?" Elder Su asked with a sneer.
"I've already heard about the valley master, and since the little valley master has made a decision, let's just wait for the news. Didn't the little valley owner say that he would notify us when there was news? Elder Wen asked puzzled.
Elder Zhong said slightly: "Yes, the little valley lord came over today to deliver the news, she said that she has found the whereabouts of the valley master, and when the time comes, she will notify us." That's why I'm going to inform you to come and discuss this matter. ”
"In that case, why are you still worried? The little valley owner already has the news of the valley master, and when the time comes, we will follow the little valley master to save the valley master. I just don't know, do you guys have any questions? Elder Wen asked.
"Senior brother, don't you have any resentment towards you like this? Don't you want to wait until the valley lord comes back to complain to him? Rest assured, we'll all be on your side. We have been guarding the Poison Valley for so many years, and the valley master must believe us. So the elder said wow.
Elder Wen blinked and said to the old elder, "Senior brother, the matter has already passed. Now that we haven't even found the shadow of the valley master, we still want to sue him? What's more, a few of us old guys are hundreds of years old together, and it's really a joke to see like a girl. ”
"Isn't what you just said about saving the valley master? It's not because you're late, so you didn't hear what we said before. You also judge and see what I think. I thought, after we get the news, we will rescue the valley master as soon as possible, can we still take a person from the hands of the Great Elder with a few of us? When we save the valley master, let's see what the girl has to say. Therefore, the elder said anxiously.
"Senior brother, do you just want to rescue the valley master? I heard that the valley master and elders of the Medicine King Valley have also been arrested, so there won't be so many people coming out with just a few of us. However, if we had rescued only the valley owner, I don't think the valley owner would have left with us alone. Don't let our valley master rescue him at that time, and put himself in. Elder Wen said as he took a bite of the roasted sweet potato.
Therefore, the elder still wanted to say something, but he heard Elder Fan say, "Since there is nothing to do, then the junior brother will go back first." ”
After Elder Fan finished speaking, he left Elder Zhong's courtyard, and Elder Fan naturally didn't dare to blatantly follow Elder Fan away, and only after eating a piece of roasted sweet potato did he leave the courtyard in a hurry.
After the elders left, Elder Wen was left alone.
Elder Wen muttered, "Senior Brother, do you see that? Elder Fan began to think about me. Fortunately, you sent someone to inform me in advance. Otherwise, if I don't show up today, I'm afraid he will still let the old elder come as a lobbyist. ”
