Approaching the unitary, inside the Heian Castle.

Senior Brother Mingrui walked around in the lobby of the Helong Inn, standing at the door from time to time and looking, but he never saw Wei Yuan.

Cheng Mo and Ming Rui entered the Qingyun Sect at the same time, and the relationship between the two has always been good, but he doesn't talk much on weekdays, and when he saw this, he walked to his side: "Do you want me to go out and find them?" ”

Hearing this, Mingrui was silent for a moment, twisted his eyebrows and said, "Chengmo, if the Great Elder knows, I'm afraid he will punish you." ”

Cheng Mo didn't speak for a while.

On the day Wei Yuan went to the border town, the Great Elder had already spoken, no matter whether Wei Yuan could complete the task or not, no one could help him, otherwise, he would have to accept the punishment.

At that time, several people agreed.

If Cheng Mo repents now, once he is discovered by the Great Elder, the Great Elder will definitely not spare Cheng Mo.

I don't know why the Great Elder has such deep malice towards Senior Brother Wei Yuan, even Ming Rui can feel it.

In any case, he can't harm Chengmo.

"Don't go."

Mingrui said: "Now that the time has not come, maybe Senior Brother Wei Yuan will be able to come back in time." ”

Cheng Mo nodded.

The two returned to the lobby of the inn, sitting and drinking tea while waiting.

As a result, until the unitary time, there were many monks who came in and out, but Wei Yuan was not seen.

Ming Rui stood up suddenly, and said with a solemn expression: "Cheng Mo, I'll go find the Great Elder, no matter what, Senior Brother Wei Yuan is a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, and now that he is out of the house, the Great Elder should be responsible for his safety." ”

Before the words fell, the voice of the Great Elder suddenly came: "Really? ”

Mingrui and Chengmo suddenly raised their heads and looked in the direction of the stairs.

The Great Elder was slowly walking down from the upper floor, his eyes like torches and his expression uncertain.

But a clear-eyed person can feel that he is unhappy at this time.

In an instant, the Great Elder stood in front of the two of them, he stared at Ming Rui, and said with a smile: "Ming Rui, what were you talking about just now?" ”

"Great Elder."

Mingrui lowered his eyes, as if he couldn't sense the Great Elder's dissatisfaction with him, "Senior Brother Wei Yuan has not returned for a day, and the previously agreed unitary time has arrived, but I don't see Senior Brother Wei Yuan, I don't know if Senior Brother Wei Yuan encountered any trouble on the way, and the disciple wants to ask the Great Elder to think of ideas." ”

"Huh."

The Great Elder sneered, he suddenly reached out and patted Mingrui's shoulder, and said unhurriedly: "Mingrui, Elder Ben knows that you are a smart person, what you should say and what you shouldn't say, you know it in your own heart. ”

"That Wei Yuan didn't cultivate, he didn't have the ability, if it weren't for the second elder who had to stuff him into the Qingyun Sect, the Qingyun Sect wouldn't have accepted him, and now it's ......"

"Not to mention, Wei Yuan can't even complete a small task, and he can't even come back at the agreed time, you say, what qualifications does he have to become a disciple of Qingyun Sect?"

Speaking of this, the Great Elder said meaningfully: "Natural selection, survival of the fittest, the truth of it, Mingrui, Chengmo, you two are the best in the sect, shouldn't you not understand?" ”

"Wei Yuan shouldn't stay in the Qingyun Sect, Elder Ben is just doing this just to stop the loss in time for the Qingyun Sect."

Mingrui and Chengmo glanced at each other, and there were turbulent waves under their calm eyes.

After many years of joining the sect, they had never thought that the Great Elder would be such a ruthless person.

"Great Elder, Senior Brother Wei Yuan, he ......"

Mingrui was still thinking about saying something, but was interrupted impatiently by the Great Elder: "Okay, if Wei Yuan doesn't show up again, Elder Ben will replace the sect master and drive him out of the Qingyun Sect!" ”
