Chapter 891: Scheming
Seeing that Elder Zheng had no intention of leaving, Yun Fei listened to Elder Zheng's words and ordered the kitchen to bring the food. In fact, he remembered Xi'er's girl's instructions not to eat with Elder Zheng as much as possible, and gave him a chance to play Gu. However, if he is not allowed to eat now, he will be exposed immediately.
After the dishes were served, Yun Fei sat aside and said, "Elder Zheng eats more, and I don't know if it's to your taste." My father's food was relatively light, so when he had lunch, the food was also very light. Do you have any meals you want to eat, I'll let the kitchen cook it for you. β
"The meals were already good and didn't have to be a hassle. You know, in the decades I have been in northern Xinjiang, I have never eaten such a delicious meal. Elder Zheng said leisurely.
Elder Zheng looked at the food on the table, it looked very delicate and delicious, compared to his previous days in the Northern Frontier, these meals did not know how good they were.
"Hasn't Senior Brother Zheng eaten the food of the Medicine King Valley for a long time?" The Great Elder asked with a smile.
"The valley master took good care of me, and after I came out of the secret room, all the meals I used were what I liked to eat in the Medicine King Valley before. The valley owner has a heart, and I still remember what I liked to eat before. Elder Zheng responded.
After eating, Elder Zheng still didn't plan to leave, which caused Yun Feizhi to frown.
"It turns out that the junior brother has lived in Northern Xinjiang for so long? I don't know how I have lived in northern Xinjiang all these years? The Great Elder said gently.
Elder Zheng's face changed slightly, and he said with a somewhat unspeakable look: "Actually, my life in Northern Xinjiang is a bit difficult. Originally, I didn't want to mention it, but since Senior Brother wants to know, then I'll tell you about it. β
It turned out that after Elder Zheng left the Medicine King Valley with the wooden box, he hid in the mountains to cultivate. It would be months before we got down the mountain. Later, he found his family in a nearby mountain village, but soon left the village in order to practice forbidden arts and return to the clan. Because the Great Elder used the Yin Yang Gu he refined to trade with the Northern Xinjiang people, he knew that the people in the Northern Xinjiang royal family had medicine Gu people in their hands. After that, he went to northern Xinjiang. As a result, what he didn't expect was that because of the forbidden technique, his body changed. It turned out that forbidden art cultivation was not so easy, it was because he was too naΓ―ve. So, he hid in the mountains of northern Xinjiang and lived. As a result, because of the forbidden technique, he fell asleep, and when he woke up, he became what he is now. It's just that it's been decades later.
When he came out of the mountains, the emperor of the northern frontier had already changed, and when he sneaked into the palace and met the emperor, he knew that the person who traded with them was the current emperor.
Ten years ago, he entered the palace to cultivate, preparing to use the Northern Xinjiang Emperor. Unexpectedly, the emperor of Northern Xinjiang was also very treacherous. Although an underground palace was built for him to live in, there was no shortage of delicacies from the mountains and seas. However, what he missed more was the days in the Medicine King Valley.
What happened after that was after meeting Murong Xi.
The Great Elder nodded as he listened, not knowing how much to believe in this version of the Elder. However, he knew that what Elder Zheng said was not all false. It's just that the fact that he cultivated the forbidden art and wanted to get the secrets of the clan seemed to be in order to protect the Yun clan and hope that the descendants of the Yun clan would be able to return to the clan.
"So, over the years, you've had a lot of blank days?" The Great Elder asked.
"Well, the days in the mountains are all sleepy, maybe it's a problem with forbidden arts, after sleeping for so many years, I still live in this world. Even I couldn't believe that I was lying in the cave. Elder Zheng said helplessly.
"Therefore, the forbidden art is an evil art, otherwise why don't the Fengtian Sect's canons allow anyone to practice the forbidden art? It's still the same sentence, Wu Zun has untied the forbidden art on your body, which is also a good thing. The Great Elder replied.
"What Senior Brother said makes sense, Wu Zun is right. He was also worried that I would be attacked and that I would be so ruthless. Perhaps, when he and the little valley lord saw me appear in the underground palace in Northern Xinjiang, they thought that I was in a group with the emperor of Northern Xinjiang. Actually, I just want to use the Northern Xinjiang Emperor. But I didn't expect that it was precisely because of this that I would be misunderstood by the little valley master. Elder Zheng said very aggrieved, as if Murong Xi really blamed him.
"In that case, why didn't you explain it to Xi'er later? Xi'er is not an unreasonable person, if you explain the reason, I believe she will not misunderstand you. The Great Elder said.
"Senior brother, they didn't give me a chance to explain at all, what the little valley master wants to know most is how many secrets I know about the clan. Actually, you also know that although the little valley master is the disciple of the valley master, he is also his most optimistic successor. However, he has never been a descendant of the Yun family. The ancestors explained in their letters that this secret must be told to the descendants of the Yun family. In order to keep my promises, I can only be small
The valley owner misunderstood. Elder Zheng said slowly.
"Senior brother, I've worked hard for you all these years. Come and try it, it's your favorite tea. The Great Elder persuaded.
Elder Zheng took a sip of tea, nodded, and said to the Great Elder, "Sure enough, it is my favorite tea, Senior Brother actually remembers." β
"This tea was brought to me by Yunfeng yesterday, he knew that you liked it, and guessed that you would come over as a guest in the future, so he left the tea. By the way, he said it yesterday, and most of it was sent to you. The Great Elder said with a smile.
"The valley lord did send someone to bring a few barrels of tea last night, I tried it, it's this." Elder Zheng said.
The Great Elder nodded and said, "So, the Medicine King Valley is your home, why don't you go back to the Medicine King Valley with me in a few days." β
The Great Elder still couldn't help but test Elder Zheng and said, in his heart, he still hoped that Elder Zheng could restrain himself from the precipice and change his mistakes. However, he overestimated Elder Zheng. No, it should be said that he underestimated the ambition of the Elder Zheng.
I only heard Elder Zheng reply: "Senior brother, you also know that the little valley lord hopes that I can follow back to the tribe. If I go back to the Medicine King Valley with you, the little valley master will definitely not agree. Besides, I think the valley master also wants to go back, after all, the valley owner is still not very at ease with the little valley master. β
After listening to Elder Zheng's words, the Great Elder was disappointed again. It seems that Elder Zheng is determined to return to the tribe. No matter how much he persuaded him, it seemed to be useless.
"Senior brother, there are some things that are ......" The Great Elder still didn't give up and wanted to continue persuading, but as a result, he was interrupted by Yun Fei.
"Father, it's time for you to drink your medicine." Yun Fei looked at the Great Elder meaningfully and said.
In fact, he didn't want the Great Elder to continue talking, after all, what the Great Elder had already decided, he would definitely not change his mind because of the Great Elder's few words. And if the Great Elder continued to talk about it, it would be easy for the Elder to be suspicious. That's why he spoke out to block the Great Elder's words.
"Is the medicine ready?" The Great Elder raised his head and said.
Yun Fei got up and said to the Great Elder, "Father, I'll go to the kitchen to take a look, it stands to reason that the medicine should have been boiled a long time ago." β
Actually, what Yun Fei said was right, the Great Elder should indeed drink the medicine, and if he calculates the time, he should almost get through it.
Yun Fei got up and left, and walked to the courtyard to go to the kitchen to see when the medicine was ready. As a result, as soon as he walked to the gate of the courtyard, the subordinate walked in with a medicine bowl.
Yun Fei took it and told his subordinates that he would bring it in. The subordinate nodded, and Yun Fei turned around and entered the room with the decoction.
The Great Elder looked up and saw Yun Fei walking in with a medicine bowl, and knew that the medicine should have just been delivered.
Yun Fei put down the decoction and said to the Great Elder, "Father, I just walked to the gate of the courtyard when I saw someone bringing the medicine. You drink it while it's hot, it won't taste good when it's cold for a while. β
Yun Fei nodded, picked up the decoction, blew it, and drank it in one go. And after he drank the medicine, Elder Zheng still didn't plan to leave.
When Elder Zheng saw that the Great Elder had drunk the decoction, he said to the Great Elder, "Do you need to drink this medicine every day?" β
The Great Elder nodded, remembering what Murong Xi had said to him, the Yin Yang Gu and Gu worms that he had taken were all manipulated by Elder Zheng. If he hadn't taken both Gu poisons, he would have turned into a touch of loess a few decades ago. Now that the Gu is solved, you have to drink medicine every day, and these are all because of the senior disciple.
"The decoction is for the body, so it is natural to take it every day. I still remember that I almost had a poisonous hair, because Xi'er's girl would only live again. I know you're wondering why I've been here all this time. Do you remember the Gu worms you left for me? The Great Elder muttered.
"Remember, those are specially refined for you to increase your internal strength." Elder Zheng nodded and said.
"I took the Yin Yang Gu in the cave at the beginning, and after I cheated to death, I was sent out of the cave, and I went back to my yard. From the secret room, he took some Gu worms and Yin Yang Gu. Because of the Gu worm, my internal strength is constantly improving, but my body is always uncomfortable. Later, I want to return to the Medicine King Valley, and when I return to the Medicine King Valley, I can return to the tribe openly. However, there are constant problems with the body. In order to be able to persevere, I need to find some help. Then, he gave those people a yin and yang Gu. I didn't expect that I would persist for so many years. However, a few months ago, my leg began to rot, but fortunately it was found by the girl at that time, otherwise you and I would not have met at all. After thinking about what happened back then, the Great Elder sighed and said.
"Senior brother, you actually gave yourself a yin and yang Gu? Do you know what will happen to the Yin Yang Gu if it is counterattacked? Can you only be so stupid? Elder Zheng's tone was full of concern. It's just that this sentence doesn't seem to be true when it comes out of the mouth of the elder. Because, Elder Zheng's heart was a little excited at the moment, and he knew the secret of why the Great Elder was still alive. It turned out that there was no problem with the Gu worm he had refined, but he thought that he had cultivated the Yin Yang Gu. He can do Gu alchemy, how can he not know the reason for this. The two Gu worms intersected, triggering changes in their bodies. Therefore, it is the Great Elder who has survived until now. It's just that he regretted that he had given the Great Elder so many Gu worms to improve his internal strength. Otherwise, how could the Great Elder still be in this world?
"Senior brother, my heart at that time was actually the same as yours. I also told you before, in fact, I was locked up by Yunfeng, and I was not convinced. If Yun Feng hadn't had the help of the Fengtian Sect at that time, how could our plan fail so easily? The Great Elder sighed, as if he was deeply regretting what he had done.
