Hearing that something had happened in the clan, Qin Tao didn't say a word and immediately flew to the Tianshui Clan with Bu Fat. Along the way, Bu Pang told Qin Tao about what happened in the clan.

The healing herbs that Qin Tao collected in the deep mountains were sent to the Tianshui tribe, but after eating these herbs, the tribesmen not only did not improve their condition but actually died of poisoning.

The poisoning of the clansmen caused the others to fall into a panic, and Kiya calmed the clansmen while thoroughly investigating the real cause of the poisoning.

Because it was caused by the poison, some people blamed the Mamba people. For a while, rumors began to circulate among the clan that the Mamba tribe wanted to swallow the Tianshui tribe.

Rumors spread and people were panicked, and the old patriarch of the Mamba tribe, Wen Cheng, was invited out by Qiya to clarify the estrangement between the clansmen.

The Mamba people are already known for making poisons, and the old patriarch is an expert in this area, so he is quite authoritative on this issue.

However, the poison in the clan this time was extremely strange, and the symptoms of poisoning were true, but it was impossible to determine what the source of the poison was.

If the source of the poison cannot be determined, it means that the antidote cannot be dispensed, and if the clansmen eat it by mistake, they will still be poisoned to death.

Moreover, the plants eaten by the deceased are all non-toxin-free, and even if they are mixed together, it is impossible to produce toxins, which further deepens the mystery of this poison.

After some research, Wen Cheng suspected that it was a colorless and odorless toxin, and there were only three kinds of this toxin in the world, namely Seven Cordyceps poison, ice silkworm toxin and phantom poison. However, what kind of toxin is it, Wen Cheng still needs to study it thoroughly.

All the plants that Qin Tao brought back were sealed. After that, there was no poisoning among the tribesmen. There were inexplicably dead people in the clan, and people's hearts were unstable, so Qi Ya sent Bu Fat to find Qin Tao.

Qin Tao inspected the deceased one by one. After confirming that it was not a serious injury, it was decided that the real culprit of the poisoning must be found.

In the patriarch's tent, Qin Tao met the old patriarch Wen Cheng, who had been studying toxins. However, Wen Cheng did not come alone, and he was accompanied by a thin old man in a yellow shirt.

"Qin Tao, this is Qi Feng, the elder of my Mamba clan, and he is a supreme master of poison. Wen Cheng introduced.

Qin Tao hurriedly bowed his hand to the old man: "Elder Qi." ”

The emaciated old man did not smile. He arched his hand and said, "Qi Feng has seen Lord Qin. ”

A few people sat down, and Qin Tao asked Wen Cheng about the progress of his research on toxins, but the old patriarch sighed. couldn't help but look at Qi Feng on the side.

Qi Feng stroked his slender beard and said, "Lord Qin, the toxin this time is extremely special, and the old man suspected that it was the toxin of the Seven Cordyceps. But something seems wrong. This poison is more like a mixture. ”

"Mixed toxins?" Qin Tao exclaimed.

"Yes, Qin Tao. Cordyceps poison is a mixture of seven different toxins, and if one or even several other toxins are added, it is very difficult to formulate an antidote. Wencheng said.

Qin Tao nodded, and then asked Qi Ya beside him, "Can you be sure that the toxin is carried by those plants?"

Qi Ya pursed her lips and nodded, and then said with some embarrassment: "Yes, grandpa has already experienced it...... Indeed, it is the ...... carried by those plants."

Unconsciously, Qin Tao's face showed a solemn look. His brow furrowed tightly.

"Qin Tao, I deduce that this poisoner is very familiar with toxins and can easily access those plants. Wencheng said.

"But. Wen Cheng turned to say, "I don't agree with the clansmen's suspicions about Qi Feng. ”

"Doubt?" Qin Tao hesitated. Look at Kia.

"That's right, not only rumors of the Mamba tribe are circulating among the clansmen, but also rumors that Elder Qi Feng is the culprit of the poisoning. Kia whispered.

"The clansmen must have been bewitched, and I vouch in my name that Elder Qi would never do such a thing!" Wen Cheng said firmly.

"Yes, I can also prove it, because Elder Qi is my cousin. Kia chimed in.

Qin Tao nodded and said, "Even if there is no such relationship, I believe in Grandpa Wen's words, but at present, we must find out this murderer as soon as possible." ”

Subsequently, Qi Ya and Qi Feng left the big tent, and Wen Cheng stayed alone.

"Grandpa Wen, do you have anything else?" Qin Tao asked suspiciously.

Wen Cheng was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Qin Tao, I am suspicious of this murderer old man. ”

"Who?" Qin Tao suddenly asked.

"Yun Ling'er. ”

"She'......"

Speaking of this, Qin Tao's mind unconsciously appeared that cute and innocent girl, but from that face, she didn't look like a vicious person who could poison her in any case.

"Grandpa Wen, do you have any evidence?"

Wen Cheng shook his head: "No, but I always feel that there is something wrong with that girl......"

"Well, Grandpa Wen, the kid remembers, I'll pay more attention to it. Qin Tao said.

Wen Cheng didn't speak, just nodded, and then left the big tent.

The investigation was fruitless, Qin Tao only buried the deceased first, and promised the clansmen at the funeral that the culprit would be found out, giving the clansmen a clear statement.

With the promise of the Great Wizard, the clansmen will naturally be relieved, and the incident of poisoning can be regarded as temporarily suppressed.

But two days later, another rumor inexplicably spread among the clan.

"What! You mean, the clansmen are now rumoring that I am cultivating poison skills and using them as experiments?" Qin Tao asked in surprise.

Qi Ya, who had a sad face, nodded and said, "Yes...... Moreover, the plants were brought back by you, and some of the clansmen have even more reason to believe that you are the murderer of the poison......"

Qin Tao shook his head helplessly, and then said to Qi Ya: "Qi Ya, for the time being, block the rumors first, there must be no other chaos at this time." ”

"Don't worry, I've already arranged it. It's just that we have to find a way......"

Qin Tao stood up from his seat, sighed softly, and said, "It seems that this person wants to kill me...... I'm going to see what else this man can do. ”

Things turned out to be as Qin Tao expected, and the murderer who poisoned him had a new method. Just when the rumors of Qin Tao's poisoning gradually subsided, another person in the clan died.

This time it was discovered by the patrolling guards in the early morning, and all the dead were burned to death, and one was even completely reduced to ashes.

Qin Tao looked at this shocking scene in shock, and the anger in his heart rose to the extreme.

However, the clansmen, who were already skeptical of Qin Tao, blamed him for this incident. is good at using fire, and can turn people into ashes, and Qin Tao has this ability in the entire clan.

For a while, rumors spread throughout the Tianshui Clan, and all the clansmen fell into an extreme panic, and some of the new clansmen even had the idea of leaving.

"Qin Tao has a sense of crisis here", "Qin Tao is the messenger of death............", "The great wizard is a demon ......" and other rumors spread among the clan, making the original panic even more profound.

At this time, Ling Shan was in retreat to cultivate, Ai Rui was in the Twin Pools, and the other members had gone to cultivate separately, so Qin Tao had no manpower around him except Qi Ya. In desperation, Qin Tao had no choice but to go back to Shuangshengtan first to avoid the limelight, and as for the matter of tracking down the murderer, he had to think about it in the long run.

Back at the Twin Pools, Qin Tao found that Ari was not there, and when he asked about the three lions, he found out that Ari had gone to the mountains two days ago.

The rumors made Qin Tao also upset, and in order to forget about these, Qin Tao had to use harsh training to numb himself.

Qin Tao wantonly used the soul energy in his body, consuming all the soul energy in the qi pool, and then absorbing the fire energy in the pool water.

With such a strong load of training and the imminent breakthrough, Qin Tao obviously felt that his karma had become more active because of the huge energy. At the same time, the fire man above the Sea of Souls also became angular and seemed to be gradually changing his appearance.

Yun Ling'er would still come to the Twin Pools, and whenever she came to Qin Tao, she would quietly go to observe, but no matter how she looked at it, she couldn't be sure that this girl would be the murderer of her clansmen.

Night fell into the eastern mountains, and there was silence in the Tianshui tribe at night, and Yun Ling'er walked alone around her big tent.

When she was young, Yun Ling'er came to a big tree, looked around casually, and then she stopped there.

Suddenly, a black shadow quietly appeared behind Yun Ling'er, and it looked extremely respectful to Yun Ling'er.

Yun Ling'er was still looking ahead, but her thin lips were moving frequently, as if she was commanding something to the black shadow behind her.

Then, the black shadow disappeared, and Yun Ling'er stretched out her arms as if nothing had happened, and walked back to her big tent leisurely......

For several days, Qin Tao was still cultivating by the Twin Pools, repeating the consumption and recovery of soul energy. However, this kind of training actually made the soul qi in the qi pool slightly stronger, as if a new blood had been added.

Yun Ling'er came to see Qin Tao, and after a few simple words, she took Dongdong to play. Qin Tao continued to cultivate, but unexpectedly received a transmission from Ai Rui.

"Tao'er, you have to be careful, there seem to be a lot of people from other places in the eastern mountains recently. Ari said.

"People from other places, Lord Red Dragon, can you be sure where they are?"

"I just feel something strange through my breath, and I don't know where they came from, so you'd better be careful. ”

"Yes, my lord, I see. Qin Tao responded.

However, just as Eri was transmitting the message to Qin Tao, a black shadow quietly appeared behind Qin Tao.

Due to his focus on talking to Eri, Qin Tao didn't notice the arrival of the black shadow, but fortunately, there wasn't much conversation between them, and just as Qin Tao's response ended, he felt a bone-chilling chill down his spine. (To be continued......)
