Chapter 17: Xia Hongyuan's counterattack
Spirit Soldier Pavilion, in and out of the level. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
There are more than a dozen armor attendants guarding the entry and exit level of the Spirit Soldier Pavilion, and at this moment, dozens of C-class students are gathered here, trying to break through the armor attendants' blockade.
"Let us go!"
"I can't stay here, maybe one day I'll get the plague!"
"We worked hard, and in the end, we had to be detained by your staff, and we couldn't survive with that little spirit stone. β
.......
....
..
At this time, one of the armored attendants at the head shouted: "Catch!"
As soon as the words fell, with a "swish", more than a dozen armor attendants immediately stood up in a neat formation, and in the blink of an eye, they caught these dozens of C-class students and tied them up.
......
At this time, Xia Hongyuan and Dong Xiquan were wearing civilian clothes and were standing in a corner and saw this scene.
"Is this the reason for the recent loss of a large number of C-class children?" Xia Hongyuan wondered.
"It's me who doesn't do it well. Dong Xiquan sighed and said.
"It's not your fault, it's the plague, but the accumulation of dansha has become the fuse. Xia Hongyuan looked into the distance and said lightly.
"Dansha?"
"Too much dansha piled up, it will cause excessive restraint by the staff, if it is placed in normal times, those C-class children are not qualified to complain at all, but now that the plague is prevalent, and the distribution of spirit stones is getting less and less, the staff is still constantly deducting This is undoubtedly equivalent to sprinkling salt on the wounds of the disciples, in this way, it will not only affect their enthusiasm, but also deepen the resentment towards the staff, resentment accumulates over time, and when the time comes, they will not only resent the staff, but even resentment against us, and will shake to the root of the Spirit Soldier Pavilion. Xia Hongyuan explained one by one.
"Zhenzhi's method is too vicious, and it is all because I only cared about learning martial arts in my early years, and I didn't understand human affairs and the world, so I couldn't detect these conspiracies at all. Dong Xiquan said angrily and helplessly.
"It's okay, I ignored this at first, but although I lost a lot this time, I also gained a lot, at least we have sensed that Wu Ting is a traitor, and I can be sure that the schemer is not true wisdom at all. Xia Hongyuan's eyes narrowed.
Xia Hongyuan really didn't expect that those dansha would cause a series of questions, although he was not angry, but he had to convince this opponent, he was also very sure that the scheming person would not be Zhenzhi, but someone else.
"Isn't it true wisdom, who could it be?" Dong Xiquan was stunned.
"This trickster is superb, and far-reaching, by no means a nerd like true wisdom can be compared, but true wisdom is just a pawn of him, as long as the recent events are connected, everything can be figured out, he first used true wisdom to disrupt our attention, but also used this to plant witches, and shake the foundation of the Spirit Soldier Pavilion, the strategy is closely linked, and it is successfully implemented under our noses, which really caught us off guard, even me, I'm afraid I may not be able to come up with such a superb serial plan, it can be seen that this person's talent may even be above meγ Xia Hong said from afar.
"I didn't expect Ouyang Ying to have such a person under him, so what should we do?" Dong Xiquan said with a puzzled face.
"If we don't know this person, it's hard to guess his thoughts, besides, this person is in the dark now, I'm in the light, we can't defend alone, we have to attack! As long as we hold on to the remaining eight days, as soon as the divine soldiers come out, it will be our victory, and we will be able to set off Ouyang Ying's foundation, and we must arrest this person, and when the time comes, ....." Xia Hongyuan smiled coldly.
Dong Xiquan relaxed slightly, and the next moment he saw another scene that worried him. At the entrance, there were some more C-class children, trying to break through the obstruction of the armored attendants.
Seeing this scene, Dong Xiquan couldn't help but hurriedly say: "But now that the Spirit Soldier Pavilion has begun to waver, many first-class students are full of resentment in their hearts, how can we get rid of their resentment towards us?"
"This grievance does not need to be removed, but it is beneficial to us. Xia Hongyuan thought for a moment and said lightly.
"Oh?"
"As long as we poison the river in the Spirit Soldier Pavilion, this grievance can be used by us. Xia Hongyuan sneered.
"What? Wouldn't this aggravate their resentment?" Dong Xiquan was slightly surprised.
"After the matter is completed, I will gather all the disciples of the Spirit Soldier Pavilion to the river, I have my own way. Xia Hongyuan said with a ruthless face.
"But..."
"There are only eight days left, everything is no longer far away, why not sacrifice this little bit....?" Xia Hongyuan raised his head slightly.
Before he finished speaking, Xia Hongyuan coughed up blood, "Ahem...."
"Hongyuan!" Dong Xiquan stepped forward to support Xia Hongyuan and said, "It's all my fault for my incompetence, and I want you to get out of the customs in advance, so that you will suffer a lot of damage." β
"It's okay, Elder Dong, go ahead and get ready. Xia Hongyuan pushed Dong Xiquan's hand away.
.....
Two days later, the Spirit Soldier Pavilion, the Great River.
The water of this river flows down from the natural domain, although the water source of this river is very dirty, but it is one of the few water sources in Liancheng, and it is the only river in the Lingbing Pavilion.
At this time, Xia Hongyuan changed into a white robe and walked to the river.
Looking at it, it was already a crowd of people who were black at this time, and these Spirit Soldier Pavilion disciples were waiting for Xia Hongyuan to speak, some people were worried and some were angry in their hearts, as for these emotions, almost all of them came from the plague.
Xia Hongyuan walked onto the temporary wooden platform, first looked around, and said, "Everyone, I came here today to give you an explanation. β
As soon as the words fell, the noise gradually stopped, and everyone's eyes fell on Xia Hongyuan.
"As far as I know, all the children of the Spirit Soldier Pavilion have walked out one after another recently, but is this the case?" Xia Hong said as he looked around.
No one in the audience answered, and there was silence, as if they were unwilling to answer this question.
At that moment, a voice came from the crowd, breaking the silence: "How can this plague stop the spread?"
Xia Hongyuan's eyes narrowed, and he took a few steps and said, "Plague? Why did the plague come from? Did you hear it from others, or did you yourself get sick?"
"Isn't it a plague? It can't be, I've seen many people die of this disease, they all have the same symptoms before they die, can my eyes still deceive me?" A child walked out of the crowd and confronted Xia Hongyuan face to face.
"What if your eyes deceived you?" Xia Hongyuan said seriously.
Can your own eyes still deceive yourself?
No one would have thought that Xia Hongyuan would say such a ridiculous thing, but Xia Hongyuan's status and prestige are here, how could there be no basis?
The kid couldn't help but be stunned, and was about to refute.
Xia Hongyuan preemptively said: "You are all blinded by both eyes, you only see that everyone who dies is dying of the same symptoms, but which eye of you can see that this disease is contagious?"
"If it's not an infectious disease, then how did they get it?" the boy said.
"That's why I've called you here. Xia Hongyuan puffed up and said.
"Gather here?"
Everyone couldn't help but look around at each other, but they didn't feel anything wrong.
Xia Hongyuan pointed to the big river behind him and said, "Look at the river behind us, if someone poisons it, what kind of consequences will it be?"
Everyone looked at the river behind them, and many people were shocked in their hearts, as long as they thought that they had to drink water here every day, if the river was poisonous, they would all be poisoned!
"But, but... Why do we believe that the river is poisonous?" the boy had weakened slightly, but his face was still angry.
"Give me a bowl of water, and I'm sure the answer you want will soon be revealed. Xia Hongyuan waved his hand to the attendants.
In full view of the crowd, one attendant brought a tray of water from the river, and then another attendant brought a cage with dozens of living rats.
"Look. β
Xia Hongyuan grabbed a mouse from the cage and poured river water into the mouse to drink.
"Squeak-"
The rat, which had just been poured into the river, suddenly became irritable and struggled in pain, and after only a few dozen breaths, the rat stopped struggling and died motionless.
Xia Hongyuan raised his head slightly and looked at the audience, and saw that some people were still suspicious, so he said, "Why don't you come up and give it a try?"
"I'll give it a try!" the disciple said.
Under the leadership of the disciple who had just spoken, many disciples also caught a mouse in the cage and poured river water into the mouse to drink, but the result was the same.
Seeing this scene, many of the children turned pale, and most of them dispelled their suspicions about Xia Hongyuan and affirmed that the river water was poisonous, but at this moment, in addition to anger, they were more confused.
Who the hell poisoned it?!
Xia Hongyuan knew that the time had come, so he said loudly: "If we all die, who will benefit the most?"
"It's an immortal cultivator!" Xia Hongyuan said first.
Immortal cultivators?
Everyone was stunned.
"According to our casting progress, we only need six days to cast the divine weapon, and then we will definitely be able to threaten the immortal cultivators in the natural domain! They are afraid of us and want to hinder us from creating the artifact, so they cast the river poison!" Xia Hong said from afar.
"Let's imagine, as long as we persist for six days, our hatred, our hatred, can we still not be avenged?
The noise in the venue gradually exhausted, and it became silent, leaving only Xia Hongyuan's voice.
Oh, yes.
As long as we hold on for another six days, once the six days are over, do we still need to be afraid of immortal cultivators?
Although the resentment and anger of the children of the various C-class students have been diverted, they are still worried about a problem at the moment.
"But how are we going to spend these six days? We don't have clean water to drink, and we can't survive. The disciple who took the lead just now said.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure everyone's water is safe. Xia Hongyuan glanced at the audience, then looked in the direction of the attendants, and said loudly: "Come on, open the warehouse, sell all the excess materials in the warehouse, and use this in exchange for a large amount of clean water, I will see tomorrow that every disciple of the Spirit Soldier Pavilion has a safe water source to use!"
Xia Hongyuan's decisive move reinvigorated everyone's already cold hearts, and the grief and indignation in their hearts turned into motivation.
At this moment, the disciple who took the lead raised his hand and shouted, "Cast an artifact and kill the immortal cultivator!"
Someone took the lead, and soon someone picked up the words: "Cast an artifact and kill the immortal cultivator!"
"Forge an artifact and kill the immortal cultivator!"
"Forge an artifact and kill the immortal cultivator!"

...
Among these children, Redwood and Gu Cheng were standing among them.
"It seems that this Xia Hongyuan is really a tricky person, the riot has just started, he pinched it in the womb, he has solved the plague problem and warehouse hoarding that everyone is worried about, and he has also transferred the resentment in everyone's heart to the immortal cultivators, fully mobilizing the enthusiasm of the entire Spirit Soldier Pavilion, even the witch listening we installed is now trapped in the cave mansion, he is indeed not an idle person, no wonder I and Elder Ouyang have not been able to match him, but in this way, all our work has been in vain. Mahogany sighed and said in a deep voice.
Gu Cheng chuckled, "This is a game within a game, how could we do it in vain?"
"What do you mean....?"
"He can't solve this bureau, the explosives of the riot have been buried, we only need to burn the fuse to detonate the Spirit Weapon Pavilion. Gu Cheng said lightly.
"Is this fuse?!" Redwood said in surprise.
"Shhhh Gu Cheng made a gesture, glanced around, and said, "This is not a safe place. β
Redwood looked around vigilantly, then made a gesture to signal Gu Cheng to follow her, and soon, the two of them walked to a hidden dense forest.
"But... Sooner or later, Xia Hongyuan would have sensed this fuse. Mahogany smiled slightly, and frowned.
As long as Xia Hongyuan is paralyzed, he will not be aware of the information about this fuse. Now give this letter to Wisdom and tell Wisdom to keep bringing some merchants to harass the Spirit Soldier Pavilion. "Gu Chengdao.
Hongmu just nodded slightly to accept, she would not ask Gu Cheng any more reasons for this move, because after several cooperations, she had fully trusted Gu Cheng, and this trust had reached a point where she could entrust her life, no matter what instructions Gu Cheng gave her, she would understand it.
Redwood smiled and replied, "Yes!"
"And this sword, you transfer this sword to Elder Ouyang, and let him take this sword to participate in the six-day weapon trial conference, this is a chess piece that distracts their attention, and it is also a key to victory. Gu Cheng took out a sword wrapped in linen cloth from his waist and slowly handed it to Hongmu.
Mahogany took the sword and lifted the sackcloth slightly, and the blade of the sword only revealed a small section, revealing a chilling murderous aura, and Mahogany was suddenly startled in his heart.
"What is this sword?" Mahogany gasped, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and said in a deep voice: "Bone fragments....!"
"It's a sword made from bone fragments!" Redwood wondered, and put the sword away in shock.
"That's right. Gu Cheng smiled secretly, "Just imagine, if a sword made of bone fragments falls into Elder Ouyang's hand, and Elder Ouyang still competes with this sword, what will the other people think of Xia Hongyuan?"
There was a roar in Redwood's mind, and he shuddered as he held the blade of his sword for a long time and couldn't let go.
