Chapter 608: Greedy Elder
"Senior brother, this is already a mess here, how should we start?" Elder Feng said with a frown as he looked at the messy medicine room.
Elder Zheng looked around for a while, and then said, "To be honest, I come to look for it almost every once in a while, but unfortunately I didn't find anything. That's why it occurred to me that I had to ask you to help me find it, and maybe someone else might be able to find it. ”
"Alas, if Lao Qu had the intention not to let us find the Ten Thousand Gu King, I don't think he would let us find it easily. Since I'm here with my brother, let's look for it. After Elder Feng finished speaking, he began to clean up the medicine room.
"Let you help me come over to find the Ten Thousand Gu King, if you don't hurry up and find it, it will be dark in a while." Why did you clean up the pharmacy? Elder Zheng asked impatiently.
"It's such a mess here, there's no way to do it. Why don't we pack up together first, and look for it while packing, maybe we can find it? "Elder Feng didn't really want to help Elder Zheng find the Ten Thousand Gu King at all, the Ten Thousand Gu King was already in Ting'er's hands, even if Elder Zheng really dug three feet into the ground, he couldn't see the shadow of the Ten Thousand Gu King. To be honest, he did have a good relationship with Lao Qu back then, and this time he took the opportunity to clean up Lao Qu's yard.
After Elder Qu died, in order to avoid suspicion, he never came to Elder Qu again. I didn't expect that for so many years, Elder Zheng would come to this courtyard every once in a while, but he never thought of cleaning up the yard.
"What you said makes sense, so let's clean it up together." Elder Zheng was helpless, as long as he listened to Elder Feng's advice, the two of them began to clean up.
After only a quarter of an hour, Elder Zheng couldn't stand the dust in the medicine room, and hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Feng, why don't I find some disciples to come and clean up, this courtyard has been abandoned for so many years, and it is really dirty." ”
"Senior brother, what we are looking for now is the Ten Thousand Gu King, are you sure you want to arrange for someone to come and clean up? Anyway, finding things is not an overnight thing, today we will only clean up the medicine room, and tomorrow I will accompany you to clean up the study. If we can't find the Ten Thousand Gu King, I think we really need to dig three feet into the ground. Elder Feng said slowly.
Elder Zheng reacted at this time, and then said, "Just thinking that the medicine room is too dirty, I actually forgot the purpose of our visit. Damn it, fortunately, my brother reminded me. ”
Thinking of this, Elder Zheng didn't dislike the messy medicine room, and began to clean up in earnest.
Elder Feng secretly glanced at Elder Zheng, but he was secretly smiling in his heart. After Elder Zheng and the Great Elder killed Lao Qu, they didn't even let go of his courtyard, and they would come to search every once in a while. In fact, Elder Feng didn't let other disciples come to help clean up, and he also wanted Elder Zheng to clean up the yard for Lao Qu himself.
And the speed in his hand also increased slightly, and he was actually a little worried about what Lao Qu would have hidden in the medicine room.
Gradually, the medicine room has been gradually cleaned up, and at last you can see that this is a medicine room. Elder Feng came to the well, but fortunately, the well has not been abandoned for so many years. He fetched a bucket of water and brought it to the medicine room.
He soaked the handkerchief, then handed it to Elder Zheng, and said slowly, "Senior brother, you wipe your face, let's rest for a while." ”
Elder Zheng took the handkerchief and wiped his face, and then said tiredly: "Let's go back first, it's already getting late, and it will be even more difficult to find after a while." I wonder if my junior brother will have time tomorrow? ”
Elder Feng smiled slightly, and then said, "Since Senior Brother has spoken, then let's come over and clean up in the morning." The two of us didn't have much preparation today, otherwise we wouldn't be so embarrassed. It's getting late, so let's go back. Senior brother, why don't you come to me for a drink? ”
"Oh, it's okay, it seems like we two brothers haven't had a drink together for a long time, right? I'll go back and change my clothes first, and then I'll go to you. Elder Zheng got up and patted the dust on his body and said.
Elder Feng nodded, and then said, "Okay, then I'll go back and immediately order the kitchen to make more side dishes with wine, and wait for Senior Brother to come over." ”
The two of them quickly left Elder Qu's courtyard, and Elder Feng really ordered the kitchen to prepare wine and food, and then turned around and went to take a shower and change clothes, taking a bath, feeling a lot more relaxed.
However, by cleaning up Lao Qu's pharmacy today, he seems to have learned something. That is, Lao Qu should have known that someone was going to be bad for him, so there wouldn't be anything worth taking away in the pharmacy. In fact, he was also a little puzzled, is there really no secret room in the medicine room? He once heard Ting'er say that the secret room in Ting'er's medicine room was the one that Lao Qu suggested that Ting'er make a secret room in the medicine room. However, he didn't dare to look carefully, for fear that Elder Zheng would see his abnormality. It's better to just clean up the medicine room seriously.
The meal was ready, and at this time, the elder Zheng also changed his clothes and rushed over. Elder Feng took out a jar of good wine and said to Elder Zheng that he would not return if he was not drunk.
The two of them were really drunk, and the elder was helped back to the courtyard by his disciples. At this time, Elder Feng was also helped into the room, and the disciple brought him a bowl of honey water. Who knew that Elder Feng didn't look drunk at all, bowed his hand, and let the disciple go down.
Elder Feng drank the honey water in one go, how could this jar of wine get him drunk? It's just that he wanted to pretend to be drunk and try to correct Elder's words, but unfortunately, although Elder Zheng drank too much, his vigilance was still undiminished. After Elder Zheng drank too much, he didn't say a word of seriousness at all.
Early in the morning of the second day, Elder Feng had prepared some things, and as soon as he had prepared the things, Elder Zheng came.
"Senior Brother Feng, who are you?" Elder Zheng asked with doubts when he saw what Elder Feng had placed in the courtyard.
"I promised my senior brother to go to Lao Qu's place to pack up my things, how can I do it without making some preparations. These are all things that can be used in a while, and we will go now? Elder Feng replied with a smile.
Elder Zheng nodded, and then the two of them went to Elder Qu's courtyard together.
Elder Feng and Elder Zheng didn't find anything in the medicine room, so they went directly to the study.
The study was covered with cobwebs, and after the two of them cleaned the room, they began to organize the books on the shelves.
When Elder Feng inadvertently wanted to pick up a book on the third shelf, he found that the book was stuck to it, and he couldn't pick it up at all. Elder Feng was a little surprised, it seemed that the secret room mechanism in the study was here. However, since Elder Zheng would come to Elder Qu's courtyard every once in a while to search, why couldn't he find this mechanism? It seems that Elder Zheng doesn't trust him at all, and Elder Zheng must have found out about this organ a long time ago, and he has also entered it. Because there is less dust on the book than in other places, the elder does not tell him. This shows the treacherous nature of Elder Zheng, and this time he was only here to test him.
After Elder Feng thought of this, he put his hand on the book and turned it slightly, but he didn't expect it to really turn. Hearing only a click, Elder Feng exclaimed, "Senior brother, senior brother, look, there is a secret room here. Let's go in and take a look, I think if the Ten Thousand Gu King exists, it should be stored here by Lao Qu. ”
Elder Zheng looked in that direction, his eyes flickering slightly, which showed that he was indeed hiding from Elder Feng that he had known about the secret room for a long time. But soon he returned to normal, and then sighed and said, "Senior brother, in fact, I have already discovered this secret room in the study. In addition to some Gu books, there are indeed some rare Gu worms in it. But I've been looking for a long time, but I haven't even seen the shadow of the Ten Thousand Gu King. ”
"Huh? Senior brother, it turns out that you discovered this secret room early in the morning. I thought I was lucky enough to discover this secret room. Now that it's all open, I'll go in and have a long experience. With that, he walked towards the secret room.
Elder Feng remembered that when Elder Qu asked him to take away the Ten Thousand Gu King before he died, the Ten Thousand Gu King was indeed not placed in the secret room. All this, I'm afraid it's also because Lao Qu has already discovered it, so he will temporarily store the Ten Thousand Gu King in an inconspicuous place in the study. At this time, he didn't take the opportunity to go in and see what it was like inside? It's just that
Although Elder Zheng said that he had not found anything, he also followed Elder Feng in.
It was the first time Elder Feng had entered this secret room, and the secret room was covered with dust just like the outside. And there are a lot of spider webs everywhere, I didn't expect that the secret room was sealed, and there were still spiders that could survive. And the most conspicuous thing in the secret room are the jars of different sizes placed on the shelves, although Elder Feng can't refine Gu, he also knows that the jars may be all Gu worms refined by Elder Qu. It can be seen that these jars are old, and the seals on them have not been removed. However, what was a little strange to him was that since Elder Zheng liked Gu refining and had a soft spot for the Ten Thousand Gu King, it was impossible for him not to be unmoved in the face of these Gu worms. It's just that these jars look very well sealed, and the dust on them is also a thick layer. In other words, Elder Zheng didn't move the Gu worms in the altar at all. According to Ting'er's words, Gu refiners would never resist in the face of Gu worms, and it was not the first time that Elder Zheng had come to the secret room, so it was impossible not to be tempted by so many Gu worms. But the facts in front of him told him that Elder Zheng had indeed not touched these altars.
He looked at these altars, and then said, "Senior brother, there are so many altars, and there are no Ten Thousand Gu Kings in them?" ”
Elder Feng looked into Elder Zheng's eyes and found that Elder Zheng's eyes were full of greed, which showed that Elder Zheng was not uninterested in these altars, and there must be some reason why he gave up the Gu worms in the altar.
Elder Zheng retracted his gaze, looked at Elder Feng and said, "I haven't touched any of these altars, but I'm sure that there are no Ten Thousand Gu Kings in them. ”
"Senior brother, are you so sure? If there is one, then haven't you missed it for many years? Elder Feng said anxiously.
Elder Feng could see that it should be that after Elder Zheng saw these altars, he must have been greedy. So, something must have happened back then, Elder Feng asked, just to know why Elder Zheng would give up these Gu worms.
"Alas, junior brother, since you can help me like this, I won't hide it from you." Elder Zheng seemed to have some difficulty speaking, but he still slowly recounted what happened that year.
