24 Mortals (V)
◎I am a woodcutter◎
In the room.
Xiao Quanzi was placed on the couch. After a detailed examination by Le Yingying, it was confirmed that Xiao Quanzi was no longer seriously injured.
Hearing this, Bai Yu felt relieved. He lowered his head and gently stroked Xiao Quanzi's hair, so he didn't see Le Xuanxuan's wrinkled brows behind him.
Le Yaoyao grew up in Yaowu Sect, learning medicine since childhood. His skill in observing qi can be said to be extremely advanced.
When she saw Xiao Quanzi for the first time, Le Yaoyao noticed something unusual. The evil aura was very obvious to her.
When the master asked her to come into the room and check Xiao Quanzi's injuries again, Le Yingying thought that he wanted to discuss the matter with her. However, she didn't expect that after a while, Su Baiyu still didn't talk about it, which made Le Yingying feel uneasy.
As for Master Su Baiyu, he was not aware of this matter. This thought only lasted for less than a second in Le Yingying's mind before she rejected it herself.
How could Master not know? As for the matter of the demonic energy, Little Quanzi was also brought back by Master himself.
Everyone may not know this, except Master.
Master is a hidden great power, with unfathomable means. It's OK that Master is always pretending. No one really thinks that Master is a mortal.
I wonder what the master is planning in his mind. Le Yingying was thinking in his heart.
"Yingying, why are you frowning and not saying anything? What's wrong?" Bai Yu turned around and saw Le Yingying standing behind him, not saying a word.
"Master..." Le Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, and finally asked tentatively: "Regarding the things behind Xiao Quanzi, what should we do?"
Hmm? Why is Xiaoxiao asking this? Baiyu is puzzled. What is behind Xiaoquanzi? What could be behind it?
Wait... Suddenly, my guess about Xiao Quanzi's injury surfaced in my mind. My guess was about Mr. Qian wanting to eat dog meat! Could it be that? Did Xiaoxiao think the same thing as me?
"Ahem....熒熒, do you think so too? Then in your opinion, how should this matter be handled?" Bai Yu said.
Alas, there are already so many people on the mountain. If there is another dog, we won’t be able to afford it! Bai Yu was filled with worries.
I don't know what happened to Xiao Quanzi. Let's find someone to go to his house and ask him. If it was really the Qian family's doing, and someone knows about it, they might pay hush money for the sake of the rich family's reputation.
It would be better if it wasn't Qian's house. In this way, Xiao Quanzi could return to Qian's house and receive better care, instead of having to stay in the mountains with no food to eat.
This is the candidate? Isn’t there a ready-made one in front of you?
What does Master mean by this? Le Yingying wondered with some confusion: Why is he asking me? Is he testing my determination and courage? Yes, although I have been his disciple for so long, I have never had a real combat experience. Master must be using this matter of magic cultivation to let me show off my skills!
The disciple in front of him changed his expression several times. Sometimes he was frowning, sometimes he was smiling. His originally pretty face became a little distorted.
Bai Yu looked at him, full of doubts. What was wrong with this child? Was he possessed? He also began to be unsure about the candidate he had originally chosen. Was it really okay for him to go like this?
Bai Yu was about to say something when he saw Le Yingying bowing and saying, "Master, please let me handle this matter. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
"Hmm..." After hesitating for a few moments, Bai Yu finally bowed down to the disciple in front of him. Under the expectant eyes, forget it, forget it. It was just a guess. If Xixi was really so positive, then just let her go.
He said, "Xiaoxiao, when you go, remember to be cautious and don't leave any handle. Don't be impulsive or act rashly. If your fellow brothers and sisters have time, you can go together."
"Master, I understand." When dealing with demon cultivators, you have to uproot them! However, although Le Yingying is confident in her own strength, she still has to listen to her master's instructions. She originally wanted to explore the depths of the Qian Mansion by herself, but now, she decided to call a few brothers and sisters to go together!
Le Yaoyao came out of the room and started looking for them everywhere, but she couldn't find them anywhere. She never thought that these people were actually staying in the orchard.
As soon as I entered the garden, I saw several fellow apprentices gathered around a stone table with solemn expressions.
"Why are you all staying here?"
"Senior Sister." Wu Lian moved a wooden chair over and motioned for Le Yingying to sit down.
"Senior sister, it's like this. We think that the dog is not simple." Seeing Le Yingying asking the question, Mo Shouqing put down the apple he was playing with and spoke solemnly.
"Master and I have already known about this." Le Yingying sat down and took the cup of tea handed to her by Wu Lian.
After taking a sip of tea, she continued, "I knew it when I saw it for the first time. As the descendant of the Yao Wu Sect, the four most basic skills are "observation, smelling, asking, and palpation". If I don't even have this ability to observe qi, do you think I can still survive in the medical field?"
"Then we..."
As if she knew what they were going to ask, Le Yingying said directly, "Master has given me full authority to handle this matter!"
Looking at the tea stalks in the cup, Le Yanyan began to recall what had just happened in the room. Thinking of the trusting look (actually a look of trepidation) that her master had given her before she left the room, she made up her mind. She put down the teacup in her hand, stood up, and said excitedly, "We'll set off in a moment. Let's find out whether it's a demon or a monster!"
On the other side, Yan Jiuyi brought Xiaoge to an idle room on the mountain. With a "creak", the door was pushed open tremblingly, and the sunlight shone into this room that had not been used for a long time.
Perhaps because she didn't expect the house to be so shabby, Xiaoge was caught off guard by the dust blowing in her face.
"Cough cough cough cough..." The conditions here are so harsh, how does Yan'er manage to live here?
Yan Jiuyi: "Sorry." Then he turned and went into the house and started cleaning quickly.
Xiaoge still remembers her current identity, which is just an ordinary disciple of the sect, not the leader of the Sword Sect, Yan Wuge.
The play had to be done in full, Xiaoge hurried over to stop Yan Jiuyi's action: "That... Master... Senior Brother, let me do this."
"No need, I can do it." Yan Jiuyi refused to help. His master had instructed him to entertain the guests well before, so he had to do it well and complete his master's orders.
The two were in a stalemate, and finally Xiaoge let go. There was no other way. With her status, it was impossible for her to do anything disobedient to Yan Jiuyi, the young master of the Sword Sect.
Besides, as a father, he has always been kind to Yan Jiuyi, otherwise he would not have allowed Yan Jiuyi to stay away for such a long time.
Looking at Yan Jiuyi's busy figure in the house, Xiaoge felt a little dazed.
The figure before me is superimposed on the shadow of the high-spirited and somewhat ostentatious child many years ago, who was sent down the mountain by me personally to experience the world. They are different now!
Time waits for no one. Over the years, during which I had no time to participate, Yan'er grew up, but also became a stranger. This was ultimately something I could never understand from the letters I sent her.
"Junior brother, what's wrong with you?" After Yan Jiu finished tidying up, he turned around and saw Xiao Ge looking at him with tears in her eyes.
Xiaoge: "Brother, I'm fine. I was just blinded by the dust."
? Not cleaned up yet? There is still dust in the room. Thinking of giving up, Yan Jiuyi's hands, which had originally stopped, started to work again.
Seeing this, Xiaoge at the side hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother, just go ahead and do your work. I don't need to do this. It's cleaned up very neatly. It will be ready in a while."
Yan Jiuyi: "Well, call me if you have anything."
Yan Jiuyi put down the things in his hands, turned back and said, "I won't go back." After saying that, he left.
"Yan'er..." Looking at Yan Jiuyi's leaving figure, Yan Wuge stood where he was, muttering to himself.
"Ding----ding---" There was a sound in my ears, and at the same time, the jade talisman on my waist began to flash. It was an urgent message from the sect's Elder Mingxin.
After sticking the jade talisman on his forehead, Elder Mingxin's angry voice suddenly echoed in his mind:
"Yan Wuge, as the leader of a sect, you actually pretended to be an ordinary disciple and went down the mountain, disregarding the safety of the Sword Sect and throwing all the sect affairs on my head. Are you ****** you ****** me?"
Yan Wuge had already withdrawn his spirit from the jade talisman the moment Elder Mingxin spoke, leaving only his spiritual power to keep the jade talisman running. After Yan Wuge drank a cup of tea leisurely and took care of his sword, he picked up the sound transmission jade talisman again to listen.
"Yan Wuge, I know you are here. Didn't you just not listen to me again? Now let's get down to business. Please listen carefully."
"The demon-suppressing device of Tianji Pavilion has detected a very strong evil demon aura. The Immortal Alliance wants you to investigate the area where you are now."
After closing the contact symbol, Yan Wuge began to think. The demons have been making small moves recently. Earlier, the dog on the mountain had obvious demonic energy. Is there any connection between the two?
Alas... the breath of evil... Could it be that there is an evil demon here? But hasn't this thing been seen for many years? Hasn't it been sealed away?
Yan Wuge stood up and looked at the leaves falling suddenly outside the house. It seemed like a storm was coming...
In the orchard, a group of people were making a plan.
Le Xiaoxiao: "Junior Sister Wulian, among the few of us, you are the one who least often goes down the mountain. This time, you will be the first to test the Qian Mansion."
"No problem, senior sister, leave it to me." Wu Lian responded.
"I'm going too." A voice suddenly sounded behind them.
"Ahhh!" Mo Shouqing was startled and dropped the teacup in his hand. He quickly stood up to clean up the spilled tea, "Brother, why are you walking so quietly? You scared me."
Yan Jiuyi remained silent. He came over silently, leaving only this sentence, and then left. He completely ignored Le Xiaoxiao who was standing beside him. She was so angry that she began to recall which meal of Yan Jiuyi's should be put with the medicine powder in the bottles and jars in her room.
Wu Lian and Mo Shouqing behind him exchanged glances. Mo Shouqing shrugged helplessly and spread his hands.
