Chapter 61: The Aftermath (I)
Just after Ding Qi returned to the medicine garden and fell asleep, about half an hour passed, and Wei Zhuo, who was stunned by a stone kicked by Ding Qi, woke up again.
Huagongsan is worthy of being a prestigious martial arts medicine in the rivers and lakes, although such a long time has passed, those disciples of the Qingyun Sect who have been hit by Huagongsan have not woken up yet. Even the younger disciples with weak skills showed no signs of awakening.
On the contrary, it was Wei Zhuo, who fainted twice in a row, and woke up again.
Wei Zhuo's last memory was only to remember that the thick-backed broadsword in his hand was broken by a huge force, and he himself was stunned by this huge force.
At that time, he was ready to die.
But now that Wei Zhuo woke up and saw that he and the disciples of the surrounding sects were still safe and sound, the person who had knocked him out had disappeared, and he was immediately relieved.
After making sure that the surroundings were safe, he immediately got up, didn't care about checking the situation on his body carefully, and endured his hands that were still faintly painful because he had blocked Ding Qi's flying stone attack at the beginning, and ran towards a fainting female disciple of the Qingyun Sect nearby.
After running to the young female disciple's side, and seeing that the young female disciple had only fainted and had not suffered any injuries, Wei Zhuo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Little junior sister...... , the little sister ....... Wei Zhuo held the girl in his arms and shook it constantly.
There was a look of concern on his face, and the relationship with this female disciple was obviously not shallow. It seems that they are clearly a pair of lovers.
Soon after, the girl came to her senses and asked in a daze, "...... Senior brother, what are we?"
But soon, after the girl realized that she was actually in Wei Zhuo's arms, she couldn't care about it, and just wanted to ask about their current situation.
The girl's face suddenly rose a pretty red, which was very good-looking.
......
A few days later, a group of people from the Qingyun Sect gathered at the bottom of this forest valley.
In fact, after Wei Zhuo woke up and forcibly woke up all of his fellow disciples who were still in a coma, the people of the Qingyun Sect soon discovered that the goods they transported this time had been swept away, and in the subsequent inspection of the surrounding mountains and forests, they found the bodies of many people from the Tianquan Sect such as the Star Deputy Sect Master one after another. In connection with the information provided by Wei Zhuo, Elder Ke and the others already understood that the goods that were swept away must be related to the person Wei Zhuo saw.
In the following days, a large number of people from the Qingyun Sect appeared in this mountain forest one after another, constantly exploring the scene in detail, trying to find clues.
During this period, there were several violent clashes with Tianquanmen.
On the night of the incident, the deputy head of the star and the others did not contact the Tianquan Sect as planned, and they realized that something was wrong, and sent people to this valley overnight, and there was a conflict with the people sent by the Qingyun faction to search for clues here.
After several conflicts, the people of Tianquanmen finally figured out what was going on.
The people of Tianquanmen were in the vicinity for several days in a row, and after searching for clues to no avail, they finally gave up the search for the time being.
As a result of this incident, Tianquanmen lost a group of elite masters of the sect, and they were unwilling to have more contact with the people of the Qingyun Sect in this valley in a short period of time, and once again started a large-scale conflict, losing manpower.
Now, only the people of the Qingyun Sect are still searching in this valley, trying to rely on clues to find clues to the goods that were swept away.
Some hall masters, Dharma protectors, and sect disciples were standing in the center of the valley at this time, with several elder-level high-level leaders whose status was second only to the head of the sect, and from time to time someone commanded a large number of people from the Qingyun Sect, meticulously investigating and searching for clues near the valley, and regularly reporting the specific results of the search to several elders.
At the same time, these elders were centered on one of the eldest, the old man known as Vice Master Xin. It seems that the longest old man is the highest person in charge of the scene.
Obviously, this deputy head of Xin is the newly promoted deputy head of Zuo Yang after becoming the head.
After getting the news that no valuable results had been found from the disciples of the sect who had reported again, several elders sighed helplessly, and then one of the old men in green shirts asked the surrounding hall masters, Dharma protectors and other high-level officials: "Everyone, we have been here for several days, and there are still no clues, I don't know what you think of this matter now?"
Hearing the elder ask, the only woman in this group of high-level women frowned again and again: "This matter is indeed strange. That batch of goods was more than 5,000 catties of medicinal herbs, but judging from the clues found now, these herbs seemed to have evaporated out of thin air. ”
Another white-bearded old man in a strong suit looked at the woman who was quite old and spoke before, nodded in agreement, and then said: "What Elder Mu said just now is that within a radius of ten miles in this valley, we have searched more than ten times, but we have not found any useful clues at all. Not even the slightest suspicious footprint, or trace of the consignment kit, was found. This is indeed very strange. ”
Speaking of this, several high-ranking members of the Qingyun Sect around all showed expressions of approval. Subsequently, everyone was puzzled by this situation, and they all looked confused and helpless.
The batch of medicines escorted by the Qingyun Sect had too great an impact on the sect, and it was the accumulation of all the precious herbs left over the Qingyun Sect for more than two hundred years. Many of the medicinal herbs in it are all kinds of precious medicinal herbs that have been specially cultivated in secret for more than 100 years. There are quite a few of them, and they are even more than 100 years old.
These precious medicinal herbs, even the Qingyun Sect, which is one of the best in the entire Jingzhou, only dare to use them extremely precious every time. Only when the bottleneck of core disciple cultivation is broken through, will a small amount be used. Over the years, less than a fifth has been used. Most of the rest were in this transportation, and now they were all lost, and all the high-level leaders of the entire Qingyun Sect were already anxious.
No matter what kind of martial arts sect, if they want to cultivate masters, they all rely heavily on various precious medicinal herbs to refine pills and help their disciples cultivate, and these medicinal herbs are the foundation of the sect's development. Once there is a lack of elixir, it will have a disastrous impact on the subsequent development of the disciples of the entire sect. It will even make the sect fall to the level of a second-rate sect in a few decades, at the level of masters, and make the sect fall to the level of a second-rate sect. This situation is a situation that many high-level leaders such as the Qingyun faction must not let it happen.
They must recover the lost herbs.
The batch of medicinal herbs that Ding Qi swept away was too important to the Qingyun Sect, and they couldn't afford to lose it at all. Because this matter is very important, the head of the left family has been coming here for the first two days, personally taking charge of it, and putting all his energy on this matter.
It's just that all kinds of affairs in the door have been piling up in the past few days, and he has to need to be handled by the left head personally, so he has to return to the door and hand over the matter to the current deputy head of Xin.
"Speaking of which, it's all that damn traitor, the bad sect's goods are gone! If it weren't for that person, how could this happen. ”
Just when everyone was worried, a hall master on the right side of the elder surnamed Mu sighed viciously when he thought of the culprit who had harmed the sect and suffered this disaster.
This person's words also immediately aroused the emotions of several other Tianquanmen high-level officials, and when they mentioned this traitor, everyone's faces showed expressions full of resentment.
What this hall master mentioned was exactly what made them limited to this situation, the spy who entered the top echelons of the Qingyun Sect from the Tianquan Sect.
......
"Pray for this shameless villain, ignoring the original head of Nie, remembering that he has made great contributions to the sect and promoted him to the elder of the sect, I didn't expect that this person would be a spy of Tianquanmen. ”
......
"Now that I think about it, it seems that the few great achievements he made at the beginning were specially arranged by Tianquanmen for this traitor in advance, so that he would have the merit to blend into the high-level of the gate as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, everyone looked away at the beginning. ”
......
When this person was mentioned, every word in everyone's voices was revealing a chill.
When Elder Ke understood that they had fallen into the trap of the Tianquan Sect, he could guess that there was a spy in the sect, and the rest of the Qingyun sect could naturally think of it as well.
After this incident, it was impossible for the spy in Tianquanmen who had broken into the high-level of the Qingyun Sect to continue to hide, and under the intentional investigation, the identity of the spy was quickly found out, and he was an elder surnamed Qi.
However, this elder surnamed Qi had long understood that after this incident, no matter whether Tianquanmen's action was successful or not, he would inevitably be exposed. Therefore, after giving the medicine to Elder Ke and the others, he immediately absconded from the Qingyun Sect and fled back to the Tianquan Sect, to which he was truly loyal. When the Qingyun Sect found out the identity of the spy, it was already too late, and the figure of the person could no longer be found.
The people of the Qingyun Sect pounced and did not catch this person.
Let the current high-level leaders of the Qingyun faction still hate this person so much. I can't wait to catch it, eat its flesh, and drink its marrow.
In the end, Deputy Head Xin shook his hand, and then said: "That's it, everyone, things have happened, and it's useless to say anything now." When he sees this spy again one day, we will definitely make him pay the price for what he did in the first place. Now our main task is to find that batch of herbs. ”
Everyone nodded, and a Qingyunmen Dharma Protector with a cold face first spoke with doubts: "We have searched for so many days, and we have not found any traces or clues of transporting that batch of medicinal herbs, as Elder Mu and Shi Protector said just now, this situation is too abnormal. If you want to transport away that batch of medicinal herbs weighing thousands of catties without knowing it, it is difficult to do it with the strength of only one person, or a few people. I think that unless someone can gather a large number of people here, they will be able to transport such a heavy herb in a short period of time. After all, when the follow-up people of the sect rushed over, it was less than an hour and a half before the incident happened. Without a large number of people, it would be impossible to transfer more than 5,000 catties of medicinal herbs in such a short period of time. Looking at the current situation, after they finished moving the goods, they should have used a large number of professional manpower to erase all the traces left by the personnel and the handling of medicinal herbs, otherwise it would be impossible for us to find even a clue like now. ”
The rest of the Qingyun Sect's high-level leaders all showed thoughtful expressions when they heard the words of the Qingyun Sect Protector with a cold face.
Regarding the speculation of the Dharma Protector with a cold face, Deputy Head Xin nodded noncommittally, and then said to the disciples of the Qingyun Sect who were on the outer layer: "You are all core disciples of the sect. This batch of medicinal herbs was originally prepared for your core disciples to cultivate in the future. What do you think about this matter, you might as well share it. ”
The disciples of the Qingyun Sect on the periphery didn't expect that this Deputy Head of Xin would ask for their opinions, and they were at a loss for a while, and they couldn't help but glance at each other a few times. The silver bell girl that Ding Qi met in the restaurant at the beginning was also among the disciples on the periphery of Deputy Head Xin.
However, the end of the girl's hair this time is no longer a silver bell, but a thin black ribbon, which looks very interesting.
What is strange is that when many disciples didn't know how to answer the question of Deputy Head Xin for a while, many disciples, after looking at each other a few times and seeing that no one came forward, finally turned their eyes to the girl, who was not very old, and looked like this girl was looking at the horse.
In this regard, the girl helplessly showed a slightly wry smile.
