Chapter 38: Luck
Bai Weige wanted to stand up and explain, Gao Yuan was one step ahead of him, and said to Shen Hui: "Senior brother, Nangong girl, Fang Yu and I went to find clues together, during which we were chased by a group of people in black, and when we escaped, we were separated from Nangong girl. There were only two of us who were worried that we wouldn't be able to save her, so we went back to the inn to find Senior Brother Bai and asked him to help find Miss Nangong. Senior Brother Bai went out despite being seriously ill because of us, and Senior Brother will punish us if he wants to blame. ”
Shen Hui had no real reason to accuse Bai Weige, and with so many people watching, as soon as Gao Yuan said this, it became that he was cold-blooded and ruthless.
Instead, he said, "Who are you talking about the man in black? Why didn't you say it before, but wait until they come back?"
The other disciples who came back first either found some useless clues or didn't find anything, and they had already told a few senior brothers. Cao Zhongyi and Zhou Xuen saw that they were new disciples, so he didn't blame them. Shen Hui was different, he always couldn't hide his emotions, and what he thought in his heart would be shown on his face, and in front of them, he said in a powerful and low voice, "It's really useless", and the new disciples and the observer disciples were ashamed, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to say more.
Just when he was disappointed, Shen Hui heard Gao Yuan talk about "the man in black", which was an incomparably fresh word for him after listening to a lot of nonsense. But thinking that Gao Yuan had come back a long time ago, he had never mentioned it before, and as soon as Bai Weige and Nangong Demon came back, they said it, thinking of this, Shen Hui was angry again.
Xie Wei echoed: "That's it, have you still put your senior brother in your eyes, and the new disciples in the past are not as arrogant as you!" Since he didn't speak for Shen Hui on the mountain, now he is very vigilant in front of Shen Hui all the time, for fear of making another mistake to dislike Shen Hui, as well as Xie Xianzun's reprimand, no matter what Shen Hui said in the future, he will help speak.
Bai Weige said: "I didn't let him say it, the man in black appeared suddenly, and he shot ruthlessly, and he vowed to kill these disciples, so I thought about going to investigate again, find out what was going on, and then report it to my senior brother." ”
Zhou Xuen smiled and said, "Okay, let's listen to Weige first, what they discovered." ”
As soon as the words came out, the eyes of all the disciples were on Nangong Demon, Bai Weige, Zhou Fangyu and Gao Yuan.
Nangong Demon looked like he didn't care about himself, and stuffed everything to Bai Weige: "Say it, I don't want to be stared at by others." She wondered, it seemed that since she met Bai Weige, she was often forced to touch things she didn't want to care about or touch, she was already famous enough among this group of children, and if she continued to make trouble, she might attract the master. How can it be so difficult to be a transparent person?
Zhou Fangyu didn't dare to approach the worm, it was Gao Yuan who went to bring the jar, and before they had unified the caliber with the Nangong Demon, they couldn't tell the matter of the tracking charm, so they said that they found it by accident.
After speaking, the disciples craned their necks and looked into the jar, and after reading it, they all felt hairy all over their bodies.
Zhou Fangyu said: "Just when we were about to go out with this disgusting bug, a group of black-clothed people appeared out of nowhere, and the one who took the lead asked us to hand over the bugs as soon as they came up, of course we couldn't hand it over, and then they came up to grab it." In order to let us run away with the bugs first, Sister Demon led away the group of people in black alone, and Gao Yuan and I were able to return to the inn safely. ”
Bai Weige said: "After that, I went out to find the Nangong girl, and worked with her to kill the group of people in black, and learned from a person in black that they were hired, we changed into their clothes, found the temple that the man in black said, and successfully entered the underground workshop of the temple." Although the process was a bit bumpy, we still found something. ”
He untied the bag of "food", revealing the "fried fingers" and "cured meat" inside, and everyone gasped after seeing what it was.
Zhou Fangyu, who saw these things for the first time, hid behind Gao Yuan and shouted, "Hand...... Fingers! In broad daylight, there will be man-eating monsters under the bright sky!"
Nangong Demon patted his forehead and said, "You can see clearly, it's not a human hand." ”
Zhou Fangyu stretched out his head to look, but the distance he stood was a little far, and the candle flame was not bright, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was something on a person.
Cao Zhongyi said at this time: "Don't be afraid, it's on the demon beast, someone dismembered the body of the demon beast and made these things." ”
Zhou Xuen said: "It looks like food, but it's definitely not for people to eat, Weige, what is this underground workshop for?"
Bai Weige took out the account book found by Nangong Demon: "This is the current account of the workshop, and the signature behind each account is the same name - Sun Zhiwei, these so-called foods are sold to the demon world." And Sun Zhiwei's business dealings with the demon world should be through Bai Yongye's hands, he didn't say that this matter may be related to His Royal Highness Ruchang in the demon world, because Bai Yongye is the bloodline of the demon world royal family after all, his brother, he always has to take care of these. It's better to be found by the Red Heaven Sect than to say it out of his mouth.
"Demon world!" Xie Wei shouted, "Is this Sun Zhiwei a demon or a human, if it is a human, I must take him out and beat him, dare to do this kind of business behind his back, or do business with the demon world!"
The repeated bombardment of insects and "things" shocked the disciples one after another.
Cao Qiuyue walked up to Nangong Demon and said, "It's hidden, I usually think you're nothing, it's quite annoying, what medicine did you take wrong today, and you found so many clues?"
Nangong Demon said: "It's all the credit of Senior Brother Bai, I'm just lucky, and I got wet." ”
Cao Qiuyue said: "Forgive you for not having the courage and brains." ”
When they were talking, Nangong Demon's afterglow swept to He Suping, who was looking at them.
Since that day, the Nangong Demon in Houshan openly talked to He Suping once, He Suping could still talk to her normally in front of people, and the queen deliberately avoided her, smiled when she met her and left, neither justifying nor admitting what she said. She couldn't see what the man was thinking.
Cao Zhongyi said: "Quiet!"
The disciples who were discussing stopped.
He said: "Now that we have found this underground workshop along the matter of the worm, we can't ignore it, and now it seems that the matter of the worm is inseparable from the group of people under the temple, we still have three days, and we can check what kind of poison this worm is, who is the person under the temple, how long has it been doing this kind of business, and what grievances do we have with Xiaguang Town." Before going to bed tonight, you can all think about the connection based on the clues you have. ”
The crowd said, "Yes!"
Shen Hui selected a few disciples to take care of the evidence, and Zhou Xuen shook the folding fan and walked to the Nangong Demon and said, "You have made a great contribution this time, and if you perform better in the next three days, the Immortal Venerable will reward you." ”
Zhou Fangyu said: "Then can I be promoted from an auditor disciple to an official disciple?"
Zhou Xuen smiled and groaned: "As long as you continue to be so well-behaved, maybe Immortal Venerable will be happy as soon as he is happy." ”
Nangong Demon thought to himself: "Tell Zhou Fangyu to be obedient, compared to finding out about the insects and the underground workshop, it is much easier." ”
In Bai Weige's eyes, this "harmonious" scene is very dazzling, but he, the "enemy", is not qualified to get along with her so happily.
It's not that he didn't think of finding a suitable opportunity to ask why she thought that he had harmed her, but in the Red Heaven Sect, all actions, words and deeds must be careful and careful, the slightest carelessness will be a catastrophe, and he really can't take risks until he finds out what he wants to investigate.
Monks hunting demons have become commonplace, and now their demons are fleeing in all directions, living in fear, and the Red Heaven Sect is becoming stronger and stronger, even if the demon world will be broken one day.
Once it is found out that the Red Sky Sect is secretly using demons to realize their interests, and then make it public, the people of the world see that the famous and decent families are no longer pure, and they can also do anything for the sake of profit, and the demons and monsters they hate to the extreme have suffered greatly and have been in dire straits for many years. Righteousness is no longer righteous, and evil will have pitiful, so that the world will re-examine the Xuanmen and the demon clan, and he will reconcile them, and the relationship between the two will be improved.
It was still difficult for him to investigate such a secret matter in the Red Sky Sect without revealing his identity, and it was difficult for him to guarantee how she would react if he repeatedly asked Nangong Demon about the previous matter.
Once the trouble is opened, Nangong Demon is Xue Liruo's identity will be revealed, and all the efforts he made before will be in vain. This result was devastating to Nangong Demon and to himself.
