Chapter 465: There is another secret
......
The matter was settled, although it was not too perfect, but after all, there was no danger, so everyone was very happy to walk in the direction of the holy land.
With Xingmu and the companionship of the six martial arts level elders, along the way, everyone was even more relaxed and happy, wherever they passed, almost all the spirit beasts had already dispersed when they heard the wind, and they didn't even see half of the spirit beasts on the way back. It didn't take long for the crowd to reach the outskirts of the Holy Land. But just as they were about to approach the entrance of the holy land, suddenly, two figures appeared not far from the entrance, looking for something, their faces full of anxiety.
"Jie'er, Ling'er?" Ou Chuyang, who was walking in the front, recognized the two girls who appeared in front at a glance, and when he saw the eagerness on their faces, Ou Chuyang's heart suddenly burst: "What happened?"
Asking himself, Ou Chuyang suddenly quickened his pace and hurriedly walked towards the two.
"Why are you here?" Before he could get closer, Ou Chuyang had already called out loudly.
When Xu Jie'er and Xiao Ling'er heard this, they immediately turned their heads in the direction where Ou Chuyang came from, and immediately ran over.
Seeing that in addition to Huo Tian and the others, as well as several elders from the Holy Land, the two women were slightly stunned, and immediately saluted several elders, and then, Xu Jie'er pulled Ou Chuyang elsewhere, and said in a low voice: "It's wrong, Ou Chuyang, something happened to the medicine garden." ”
"Huh?" When Ou Chuyang heard this, his heart trembled, and he asked, "Something's wrong?"
Xu Jie'er turned around and aimed her back at the elders, as if there was something unspeakable, and kept winking at Ou Chuyang.
Seeing this, although Ou Chuyang didn't quite understand why Xu Jie'er made such a move, but looking at his anxious expression, and his eyebrows constantly drifting to the place where the elders were standing, the former nodded with a little understanding, and then said, "Go back and talk about it." ”
"Stop. Just as Xu Jie'er's frowning brows unfolded, secretly relieved by Ou Chuyang's wit, an extremely majestic old voice spit out from Yuan Ming's mouth.
A low muffled drink suddenly froze Xu Jie'er and Ou Chuyang on the spot, the two glanced at each other, and then turned to look at Yuan Ming with an innocent expression.
"I heard you say that something happened to the medicine garden, what happened?"
As soon as Yuan Ming's words came out, the elders, Huo Tian and the others were all stunned, and immediately turned their eyes to Xu Jie'er.
Xu Jie'er was directly shot by these gazes, and immediately became uncomfortable. Secretly glanced at Ou Chuyang, and then sighed helplessly. She knew that it would be fine if her words hadn't been heard by these elders before, but now that Yuan Ming asked, I'm afraid she couldn't hide this matter. So simply, Xu Jieer explained the matter.
Lowering her head slightly, Xu Jie'er replied softly: "Medicine Garden... The medicine garden is on fire. ”
"What?"
"What?"
Two consecutive exclamations came from the mouths of Ou Chuyang and Yuan Ming at the same time, and although everyone present was stunned, none of these two showed the most excitement. It is true that if it is said that the Holy Land Medicine Garden is the most important to anyone, I believe that among all the people in the Holy Land, from the Council of Elders to ordinary students, there is no one who does not rank Yuan Ming first. And if the time is shortened to nearly two years, except for the old man who is addicted to medicine, all the Holy Land students and mentors know that the importance of this medicine garden to Ou Chuyang is extremely great.
The success of Ou Chuyang and the Medicine Gang, in addition to the approachable personality of the former and the support of many people, the Medicine Garden also accounts for a huge proportion of it. Therefore, don't look at Yuan Ming is very angry, Ou Chuyang at this time is not pressed by the former.
"Say it again. Yuan Ming, who had been silent, heard that the medicine garden was on fire, and no longer cared about his esteemed status in the Holy Land, as soon as the strength of the martial arts level was displayed, he rushed to Xu Jie'er like a gust of wind, and asked in a hateful voice.
At this time, Ou Chuyang's face was also gloomy, staring at Xu Jie'er tightly, and said coldly: "Jie'er, tell everyone about the matter, there is a great elder here, and he will make decisions for us." ”
Ou Chuyang said, glancing at Yuan Ming, who was still angry and couldn't extricate himself, obviously, the last sentence of this sentence was also reminding Yuan Ming, afraid that he would do something impulsive for a while.
Xu Jie'er nodded when she heard this, but she didn't have any fear in her heart because of Yuan Ming's anger, she just listened to him say slowly: "You went out for four days this time, and in the middle of the night last year, a fire suddenly broke out in the medicine garden, and no one noticed it at first, if it weren't for the special nose of the guy Qiling, we wouldn't have known that this kind of thing happened." At that time, Qi Ling smelled the smell of burning in the air, so he rushed out, but at that time, the medicine garden in the medicine garden had already burned, at that time, no one would ask why the fire started, the students of the medicine gang hurried to put out the fire, but unfortunately it was too late, and by the time we put out the fire, the medicinal materials in the medicine garden had already been burned by the fire, and now, except for the purple spirit grass, there was no big loss, and the medicinal materials in front were less than three-tenths. ”
"Humph!"
As soon as Xu Jie'er's words fell, Yuan Ming's bullish temper could no longer be suppressed, and a wave of Ou Ming's power surged out from his body, and the release of that internal qi did not take into account the fact that there were Ou Chuyang and Xu Jie'er, the two weak Holy Land Academies around him, and he immediately generated a huge ripple of energy, surging in all directions.
"Not good. Yuan Ming was angry, Ou Chuyang kept looking at it, and when he heard the former snort in a low voice, suddenly a huge sense of crisis arose from his heart.
Subconsciously, at the same time as the energy ripple appeared, Ou Chuyang's figure turned around, blocking in front of Xu Jie'er, and then, the former clenched his fists in front of his chest, closed his eyes tightly, and waited for the attack of a martial vener-level powerhouse.
At this critical moment, Ou Chuyang only heard a wind sound in his ears, followed by an earth-shattering roar.
The expected pain and body throwing away did not happen, Ou Chuyang slowly opened his eyes, and saw an old but straight figure in front of him, just in front of him and Xu Jie'er, blocking the blow for the two of them.
"Great Elder. Ou Chuyang exhaled softly.
That's right, there will be no one else in the arena who can appear in time to block this blow for Ou Chuyang, it is the martial mad-level Great Elder Xingmu.
Xing Mu tilted his head slightly and smiled slightly, giving Ou Chuyang a reassuring look, and then said to Yuan Ming: "Elder Yuan, you have lost your temper. ”
Xing Mu's low shout implied soul power, which made Yuan Ming, who was in anger, suddenly wake up, and wake up is a wake-up, but Yuan Ming didn't say half a word of apology because of his own mistakes, but instead arched his hand to Xing Mu with a gloomy face: "Great Elder, I'll go back first." ”
After Yuan Ming finished speaking, he didn't wait for Xingmu to speak, and his person jumped, but a hundred meters away, and then Ou Chuyang and the others watched the former's figure fly in the air, turning into a streamer, and hurriedly swept towards the holy land.
Seeing that Yuan Ming left in a hurry without listening to the explanation, everyone immediately felt that something was wrong, and Xing Mu, who knew Yuan Ming best, shook his head helplessly, and then turned to Ou Chuyang and said, "It seems that the Holy Land has changed a lot in the past two years." Little one, what's going on with the Medicine Gang?"
Ou Chuyang was about to explain, but Xing Mu waved his hand lightly and interrupted him: "Okay, needless to say, let's go back with me, it seems that this time, the old guy Yuan Ming will not give up, alas~, destroying the medicine garden is equivalent to asking for his old life." ”
Feeling the tone of Xing Mu's words, the faces of everyone present flashed with a solemn color, it is true that, as Xing Mu said, this medicine garden and Yuan Ming have long been closely linked, and they are generally the same.
With this matter, everyone's footsteps were even faster, if it weren't for the fact that Ou Chuyang and the others had not yet reached the level of Wuzun, thinking about it, Xingmu and the other elders would have already turned into flying arrows and returned to the Holy Land. However, even so, everyone's footsteps were not slow, and it only took less than half an hour for everyone to hurriedly return to the Holy Land Medicine Garden.
When everyone returned to the gate of this medicine garden, which has been popular in the past two years, it was already surrounded by students from the Holy Land.
There was a lot of noise at the gate of the medicine garden, and there was no need to listen carefully, Ou Chuyang and the others knew that what they were talking about must have been the fire in the medicine garden last night.
"Let's make it. ”
Ou Chuyang and his entourage, including the six elders, came to the gate of the medicine garden not far away, and before they could get close, Huang Lang shouted at the top of his voice. Hearing Huang Lang's shout, the onlookers all looked back, and when they found that several of the most authoritative elders in the Holy Land were there, they immediately made way for an extremely wide passage, allowing everyone to enter the medicine garden smoothly.
Eagerly walking in the front, Ou Chuyang felt more anger in his heart every time he passed a medicine field, and when he really arrived at the center of the medicine garden, he couldn't bear to roar anymore.
In front of him, the original lush and pleasant medicinal garden has long been dilapidated, and the best medicinal materials everywhere have turned into gray ashes, and only a few still have the original vigorous appearance, but a few of them may be due to the scorching fire, and a few medicinal materials have begun to wither faintly. As Xu Jie'er said, less than three-tenths of the original large area of medicinal herb cultivation is still intact, and the rest of the place has become a mess.
In the medicine garden, there are many apprentices in the medicine garden and other members of the medicine gang, who are constantly busy, led by the apprentices of the medicine garden, and other members help, these people are trying their best to rescue those dying medicinal materials, and for a while, the medicine garden is in chaos, with noise and shouts endlessly.
Seeing Ou Chuyang come back, many members of the Medicine Gang put down their work one after another, gathered around, bowed their heads one by one, and called the gang leader and boss similar respectful words, and at this time, Dongfang Xue and Qi Ling didn't know where they came from.
"Ou Chuyang, you're back. ”
"Helper, you're back. ”
Ou Chuyang looked at the two of them lightly, Ou Ming's heart was sour, Dongfang Xue's originally white and beautiful face was rubbed by something, it had already been black and gray, and it had lost its former cleanliness;
Sweeping his gaze over the two of them, Ou Chuyang opened his mouth and asked, "What's going on, why did it catch fire for no reason?"
Dongfang Xue glanced back at the messy medicine garden, and sighed: "I don't know, this fire came very suddenly, and we didn't even reflect it." We are also very puzzled, this medicine garden has always been guarded by special personnel, especially in the past two years, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, even at night has been assigned additional manpower, it can be said that someone is watching from time to time, but I didn't expect it..."
"Will there be a fire when someone is guarded at night?" Ou Chuyang said to himself in disbelief when he heard this.
Dongfang Xue paused, first looked at the torture wood behind Ou Chuyang, as if he had been struggling for a long time, and then gritted his silver teeth and said: "If my guess is correct, I think this fire incident was not an accident, but someone did it on purpose, because, when the medicine garden caught fire, someone went to look for the two members of the medicine gang who were in charge at the time, and finally found that the two people were actually stunned and thrown outside the medicine garden." ”
When Ou Chuyang heard this, he was immediately furious, but he didn't show it when he was scheming, but pondered. At this moment, Yuan Ming, who had already turned around, suddenly appeared not far away, scolding all the way, Yuan Ming walked quickly to Ou Chuyang, and said loudly: "Boy, what have you done in the past two years? Why do many people in Wuyuan live in the medicine garden? What happened to those medicinal herbs? Why did it catch fire?"
Yuan Ming's reappearance showed his extremely angry emotions even more, but it was attributed to his identity and Ou Chuyang's age, plus Xing Mu was still standing next to him, the former did not put this anger into action. But even so, everyone present clearly felt the anger in Yuan Ming's heart and the coldness in his words.
Tormented by Yuan Ming's anger, Ou Chuyang was not afraid or even frightened, but replied with a solemn face: "Elder Yuan, please calm your anger first, this matter is a long story, there should be another hidden secret, and it can't be explained for a while, it's better to let the students arrange and solve the matter in front of them before explaining." ”
Hearing this, Yuan Ming was about to say something, but Xing Mu was the first to say: "Elder Yuan, Ou Chuyang is right, now that the medicine garden is in chaos, it is really not the time to pursue it, it is better to follow what he said, and it is not too late to solve the matter here first and then listen to his explanation." ”
The highest-ranking Great Elder in the Holy Land spoke, and Yuan Ming couldn't say anything, so he could only suppress the anger in his heart, glared at Ou Chuyang, and then stood aside and said nothing.
Seeing that Yuan Ming no longer asked, Ou Chuyang gave Xing Mu a grateful look, and then, the former's face became unusually serious, and he said to Dongfang Xue and Qi Ling: "Xue'er, Qi Ling, order to go down, let all the medicine garden apprentices and the members of the medicine gang who have research on medicinal materials be responsible for each place, and let the rest of the medicine gang members be their deputies to help each other and divide those intact medicinal materials area." In addition, if there are any medicinal herbs that have only burned to the branches and leaves but the rhizomes are not damaged, transplant them quickly, away from the scorched area, and keep the seeds if they can keep them. If the rest of the burned herbs cannot be saved, they should be cleaned up and replaced with new ones to prevent the scorched residue from affecting the soil texture. Oh yes, after these things are done, you two and Jie'er and Ling'er will wait for me in my room, and the two students who were knocked out will also bring them. ”
