Chapter 943: Looking for Clues
The old man nodded slightly, and said, "Remember when I mentioned Elder Qu to you, right?" ”
Murong Xi nodded and replied, "I remember, it's Elder Qu's father. ”
"Well, that's right. I remember I told you that the ancestral hall is managed by Elder Qu. And what Elder Qu was most proud of was also Gu Alchemy, which must have been the secret that Elder Zheng got in Elder Qu's courtyard. Shigong said.
"Wait, Master, didn't that Ting'er senior go to Elder Qu's courtyard to look for something? And, I remember finding something in the secret room in the medicine room, right? Murong Xi asked puzzled.
"Well, that's right. The secret room is full of Gu worms. However, what Elder Qu was guarding was naturally more than just Gu worms. Shi Gong muttered.
Murong Xi opened his mouth and said, "Elder Qu is in charge of the key to the ancestral hall, and I remember that Master Gong once told me that the Poison Medicine Gu refines poison and Gu. And Elder Qu was the only one who could cultivate Gu poison in the Medicine King Valley. It can be seen that his status in the Medicine King Valley is very high. Now that I think about it, his identity must be related to the clan. ”
Shi Gong nodded and said, "I understand what you mean, Elder Qu's ancestor must be someone from the princess's side. He, like those elders of the Fengtian Sect, was from the tribe. The Elder Guild refines Gu, and he secretly refines it. Of course, he didn't hide it from the Great Elder. At that time, only my junior brother and I were kept in the dark. It was precisely because Elder Qu discovered that Elder Zheng secretly cultivated Gu poison and stole the prescription in the ancestral hall that he was killed. ”
Shigong remembered the past and felt a little depressed. Elder Qu died tragically, and he found out that it was related to Elder Zheng, but there was no evidence that Elder Zheng did it. Especially at that time, the Great Elder and the others were all on the side of the Elder.
"Master, if Elder Qu is a member of the clan, he must have the secrets of the clan in his hands. There is also an elder in the Fengtian Sect surnamed Qu, and I suspect that they are brothers at all. In that case, Elder Qu of the Fengtian Sect should also know this secret. Murong Xi thought of Elder Qu in the forbidden land of the Fengtian Sect.
"Xi'er, do you mean that Elder Qu is the brother of that Elder Qu of the Fengtian Sect?" Shi Gong was a little dizzy by Murong Xi.
"No, I mean, maybe the ancestors of the two Elder Qu should be brothers. It shouldn't be a coincidence that they all have the surname Qu, and besides, their status in the Medicine King Valley and the Fengtian Sect is very important. Murong Xi explained.
Shigong admitted that Murong Xi was right, although he didn't know what the status of Elder Qu of the Fengtian Sect was, he knew what the status of their Elder Qu was in the Medicine King Valley.
Elder Zheng didn't know when he discovered the secret of the ancestor's tomb in Elder Qu's courtyard, so he had a plan for the future. Presumably, he didn't really want to help the Great Elder, but just to pave the way for himself.
"Xi'er, why don't I go back to the Medicine King Valley first?" Shigong said.
"You want to go back to Elder Qu's courtyard to look for clues?" Murong Xi asked.
"Well, I think Elder Qu must have other clues there." Shigong said.
"Elder Zheng is so insidious and cunning, I'm afraid he has already destroyed the clues. Master, I suspect now that Elder Qu was killed not because the ancestral hall's prescription was so simple. Murong Xi said simply.
"Could it be that Elder Qu was killed because Elder Zheng discovered the secret left by the ancestor?" Shigong understood what Murong Xi meant.
"Well, exactly. At that time, Elder Zheng was probably only handy when he got the prescription, but when the Great Elder asked about him, he casually said that he had killed Elder Qu for the prescription. In doing so, he not only concealed from the Great Elder, but also gained the trust of the Great Elder. Murong Xi muttered.
"Then what can my junior brother and I do next?" Shigong was eager to help Murong Xi.
"Master, you and the old man don't want to go anywhere. I definitely can't do it alone to Ji Limo, of course I need your help. Murong Xi said.
"When are you going to solve Ji Limo's Gu?" Shigong asked.
"You must first detoxify Ah Chen's Gu poison before you can detoxify Ji Limo's Gu. After Ji Limo's Gu poison was resolved, let him go back and ask Elder Qu of the Fengtian Sect. I think that by then, I will know the secrets of the tribe without having to get the wooden box. Murong Xi said to his master.
"Then my junior brother and I will stay here first, and when you explain the Gu to Bailichen, I will watch Ji Limo in the house. You also said that the elders are going crazy, and they may not even want their lives. Shigong said.
"Master, last night Ah Ye and I went to the courtyard of the elder. He was cultivating evil Gu. Even if he was poisoned, he wouldn't be so easy to die. Murong Xi sighed and said.
"Cultivating evil Gu? How could he be so sideways? Master Gong was amazed, and couldn't believe that Elder Zheng would do this.
"Ah Ye and I saw it with our own eyes, he was cultivating evil Gu. It wasn't until last night that I came back to why I fell for the Gu. I think these sideways should have been cultivated when they were in the Northern Frontier, so they couldn't have started cultivating in the Medicine King Valley, right? Murong Xi thought for a while and said.
After Shigong came back to his senses, he said, "Xi'er is right, I'm afraid he cultivated in the Medicine King Valley. No wonder he learned his alchemy so quickly, it turned out that he had taken a shortcut. Xi'er should know very well that the reason why Elder Zheng's Gu refining technique is so powerful is probably because of the evil Gu. However, those who cultivate evil Gu will become inhuman and ghostly. I just don't understand, Elder Zheng has always been arrogant, why would he refine such a side-by-side thing? ”
Shi Gong really didn't understand Elder Zheng's approach, when Elder Zheng was in the Medicine King Valley, he was very concerned about his identity as an elder, how could he cultivate the Evil Gu? What kind of life has Elder Zheng had in Northern Xinjiang all these years? Is it true that he has been sleeping in the open for decades, drinking blood?
"Why he did it, only he knows. You know, the way he looks now is too scary. Murong Xi said.
"What was he doing when you went? He has just been counterattacked, and it stands to reason that he should find a place to recuperate. Shi Gong muttered.
Murong Xi shook his head and said to his master, "He is using blood to nourish the Gu worms in his body. I was worried that he would recover soon, so I decided to solve the Gu poison on Bai Lichen's body and immediately give Ji Limo the Gu solution. ”
"I finally know why you're in a hurry to unravel them, but can your body really stand it?" Shigong asked distressedly.
Murong Xi looked at Feng Mingye and smiled slightly before he spoke, "Master, you can rest assured." My own body, I know it in my heart. I will take care of the child in my belly and will not let the child have an accident. ”
"Xi'er, don't be hard, at least now I and your master still have some strength, at least we can help you. If you are not feeling well, leave it to me and my brother. The old man also felt sorry for Murong Xi in his heart.
"Got it." Murong Xi originally wanted to explain, but seeing that the two old men were eager to help her, she had to swallow what she was about to say.
"Xi'er, my junior brother and I will go to Ah Chen's house, let Ah Yue go back and rest for a while." Shigong got up and said to Xi'er.
"Ah Yue has gone back to sleep, and your second elder will sit in the courtyard for a while. If you're not feeling well, head to the front hall for some pastries and some tea. Murong Xi said softly.
"Forget it, senior brother, I'll stay in this backyard. I think this rocking chair in the yard is very comfortable, lying on the rocking chair, drinking tea, eating pastries, how beautiful is it? As soon as the old man entered the courtyard, he saw the rocking chairs in the courtyard. So, he lay on the rocking chair and squinted comfortably.
Murong Xi shook his head, and said to his master: "Master, don't go, just sit in the backyard and play chess and chat with the old man." ”
"Okay, I'll enjoy it in this backyard today." The old man smiled and said.
"Xi'er, you go into the house and rest, let Ah Ye accompany us in the courtyard." The old man said.
Murong Xi nodded, turned to Feng Mingye and said, "You are here to accompany the master and the old man, and I will go and talk to Xue'er and Wanwan." ”
Feng Mingye looked at Murong Xi dotingly and said, "Okay, be careful yourself." ”
"I have Mo'er by my side, and I'm not alone." Murong Xi pursed his lips and said with a smile.
After Murong Xi finished speaking, he took Mo'er to the front yard. Murong Xi was not in a hurry to go first
Looking for Wan Wan, I went to the house like a poet instead.
"Miss, are you here? Rushi is much better today, and mindfulness is talking to you. Seeing that the person who came from the picture was Murong Xi, he said with a smile.
"What are you talking about me?" Murong Xi said with a smile.
"Rushi has always been thinking about your body." Picturesque said.
"Picturesque, you and Linglong go to the North Stygian Snow and change the two of them." Murong Xi said to Ruhua.
"Yes." After answering the call, Ruhua left the house.
Murong Xi entered the room and said to Rushi, "Rushi, how do you feel?" ”
Rushi looked Murong Xi up and down, worried about her body, and asked, "Miss, I'm already much better, what about you?" How is your body? ”
"Of course I'm fine, you can see it, after unraveling the Gu, I recovered. You can keep it in peace, don't worry about me. Murong Xi said with a smile.
"Miss, it's good that you're okay. I ......" Rushi finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Murong Xi sitting beside her. It's just that I was a little choked up with emotion, and I didn't know what to say. Thinking about it, tears slid down my face.
"Okay, why are you crying again? I've heard you're about to turn into a crying bag. Murong Xi stretched out his hand to wipe the tears that flowed down like a poem, and said with a smile.
"Isn't it picturesque that they sued me?" When Rushi heard Murong Xi say this, her eyes widened and she asked.
Before, Rushi had just woken up, and she knew that Murong Xi had forcibly suppressed the Gu poison in order to recover her internal strength. Seeing that Murong Xi had recovered her previous appearance, she was relieved.
"You." Murong Xi said.
"Xi'er, we're here." Su Wanwan said softly.
As soon as Murong Xi turned his head, he saw Su Wanwan and Bei Mingxue walking in.
"You're here?" Murong Xi said.
"Well, Picturesque and Linglong swapped us out. How's the poem? Is it better? After Su Wanwan finished saying to Murong Xi, she saw Rushi sitting on the side, and when she saw that Rushi's face was fine, she asked warmly.
"Thank you Miss Wanwan for your concern, I'm much better. Thanks to Miss, I might not have woken up by now. Rushi said with a smile.
"It's good for you to recover, otherwise your young lady will be very worried about you." Su Wanwan said.
"Miss, let's talk, don't worry about us, I want to go to the yard to breathe." Rushi said to Murong Xi.
"It's fine." Murong Xi said.
