Chapter 458: Mohist Treasure House

Liuqu left, and Xue Huan gave Mo Wei a puppet talisman and asked him to lead a group of servants to open up the wasteland in the back.

She went into the building to see Li Qingluo.

A woman was standing by the bed. She was plump, with a face like a full moon and skin as white as fat. She was wiping the sweat off Li Qingluo with a handkerchief.

Seeing Xue Huan come in, she was a little startled. She quickly stood up, retreated to the bedside, lowered her eyes and said, "Greetings, Miss Xue Fei."

Xue Huan: "Wake up, what's your name?"

"Feng Ying."

Li Qingluo was sleeping soundly on the bed. She had applied medicine on her body, but her face looked very bad and sweat was constantly oozing from her forehead. Xue Huan checked and found that she had a fever.

She fed her a Niuhuang Wan to reduce her fever, and a Yangyuan Dan to replenish her energy and improve her immunity.

"I gave her some medicine. She should be fine after she gets some sleep."

Xue Huan tucked the quilt in for Li Qingluo and nodded to Feng Ying, "From now on, those members of the Mo family won't be able to come to Linglong Pavilion anymore. You can rest assured."

Feng Ying was stunned. By the time she came to her senses, Xue Huan had already left.

She slowly sat down beside the bed. What did Mo Xuefei mean by what she said just now?

When Xue Huan went out, she happened to see a team of servants bringing in all the tools needed for growing vegetables. The bamboo baskets they were carrying were filled with various vegetable seeds and seedlings.

In the afternoon, Liuqu called the elders of the tribe to a meeting in the meeting hall.

"I have three things to discuss with you. First, Concubine Xue has acquired the Longevity Pill for our ancestors, preserving the foundation of our Mo Clan. She has made a great contribution. Furthermore, she also handed over a five-hundred-year-old spiritual ginseng that she obtained through great difficulty to the clan. I intend to reward her with the opportunity to choose any treasure from the treasury. Is that okay with you?"

How can I not have any objections?

Concubine Mo Xue belongs to the Sixth House, which is the clan leader's faction and is in opposition to the Great Elder's faction. How could the Great Elder's faction be willing to see the Sixth House gain benefits?

Fifth Elder Mo Biao spoke up, "Clan leader, Concubine Xue volunteered to go to Medicine King Valley. Furthermore, the clan gave her a generous dowry before she left. This dowry was enough to offset her contributions. How can we count her contributions again and let her choose any treasure from the treasury?"

"As for that five-hundred-year-old spiritual ginseng, hasn't the clan spent less resources on her over the years? How could a single ginseng plant be enough to compensate for its worth? Isn't it her duty to hand it over to the clan?

"And I suspect she probably has more than just this one ginseng. Otherwise, given her personality, how could she have handed it over so readily? We should call her over and check her storage bag to see if she has hidden any other treasures."

The Seventh Elder angrily retorted, "Hidden treasures! Mo Biao, I find you becoming more and more shameless. Why don't you open your private vault and let us check to see if you have any hidden treasures?"

Mo Biao snorted coldly, "Seventh Brother, why are you so excited? Sixth Brother hasn't even spoken yet."

The reason why the Sixth Elder did not speak at the first time was that he was dissatisfied with his granddaughter's behavior. He wanted to find a time to hint to his granddaughter to hand over the spiritual ginseng to him, but she actually handed the spiritual ginseng to the clan without saying a word and without even discussing it with him.

But no matter what, as a grandfather, he has to protect her to the outside world.

"Fifth brother, what you said is too much. The Snow Concubine exchanged her life for the longevity elixir, and you think a little dowry will offset it? Don't you think it's unfair to say that? Besides, that five hundred year old spiritual ginseng is a rare treasure. Let alone cultivating one Snow Concubine, even cultivating ten Snow Concubines would be enough!

"She's willing to hand over such a treasure to the tribe, which shows she's kindhearted and grateful! Unlike some people who eat and drink from the tribe and still feel that the tribe treats them poorly, such ungrateful wolves should be driven out as soon as possible, otherwise they will only cause trouble if they stay."

Mo Biao stood up and pointed at the Sixth Elder's nose: "Sixth Elder, who are you targeting?"

Sixth Elder: "Whoever responds will be the one to speak."

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, the clan leader slammed the table and said, "Has that been enough? Old Five, who are you trying to bully? Sit down!"

Mo Biao sat down with a red face and thick neck.

The clan leader looked around at everyone and said, "Since there are different opinions, let's vote. Those who agree to reward Xue Fei, please raise your hands."

The clan leader is from the second branch, the third, sixth and seventh branches are from the clan leader's faction, and the last eighth branch has never participated in the clan's struggles. It has devoted itself to studying mechanical arts and is considered neutral.

At this moment, the third, sixth, seventh, and eighth elders all raised their hands.

There were seven elders in total, and four of them agreed, so the matter was passed.

Liu Qu: "Okay, let's talk about the second thing. The Qiu Tan Festival is coming soon. In order to let the children of the clan calm down and practice well, so that they can shine at the Qiu Tan Festival, I have decided to temporarily close Linglong Pavilion for a period of time and reopen it after the Qiu Tan Festival.

"Of course, if you really can't stand the loneliness and want to go out and have some fun, that's fine too. I've set up a formation outside Linglong Pavilion. As long as you can get through, you can do whatever you want. I don't care. But if you don't have the ability to get through the formation, then stay in the room and practice honestly. Don't let yourself fail the clan competition and embarrass yourself outside!"

No one had any objection to this matter.

Liu Qu took a sip of tea and continued, "I plan to go to Yaowang Valley and give the spiritual ginseng to Valley Master Sun to be made into a spiritual medicine. I will then use it to reward the disciples who perform well in the family competition. Come with me tomorrow, Lao Liu."

The Sixth Elder agreed.

After the matter was discussed, the elders left the meeting hall one after another.

The clan leader's proposal of commendation at the meeting was at Xue Huan's instigation, so when the servant came to tell her about it, she was not surprised at all.

She followed the servants to the meeting hall. Liu Qu stood up from his chair and said, "Follow me." He took her into the secret room at the back.

Mo Xuefei had never entered the treasury, and didn't even know its exact location.

Xue Huan naturally had no idea.

Entering the secret room and spiraling down the stairs, she couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that the Mo family's treasure house is located within the mountain?"

Liu Qu nodded. "That's right. The Mo family hollowed out the entire Lingxi Mountain and built layers of buildings. There's also an artificial elevator that goes from the top of the mountain all the way to the bottom. If there's an emergency, we can quickly leave via this elevator."

Xue Huan and Liu Qu walked into the elevator and descended for about two minutes. The elevator stopped and they walked out. After passing through a complex and winding corridor, a huge rock palace appeared before them.

The palace gate is seven or eight meters high and fits tightly together.

Outside the door, there stood two giant puppets that were almost level with the stone door. Moss had grown on the bottom of the puppets, and some vines had climbed up. It was obvious that the two puppets had been guarding here for who knows how many years.

Xue Huan asked, "Are these two puppets still usable?"
