Chapter 466: Striking the Grass and Startling the Snake
......
Listening to Ou Chuyang's uninterrupted orders like this, his words naturally revealed the courage and appeal that a superior person should have, and the elders, Huo Tian and the others couldn't help but be surprised.
Where is this a student of the Medicine Garden, this is exactly the same as the leader of those powerful forces outside, such an extraordinary mind and thinking is not at all something that a young man who is about to be sixteen years old can have. For a while, for Ou Chuyang's outstanding performance, everyone looked up to him again, and even Yuan Ming, who was very annoyed on the side, also cast a surprised look at him.
After arranging everything properly, Ou Chuyang turned around, faced Huo Tian and the others, hugged his fists and said: "This time to hunt the black blood silkworm, thanks to your help, the matter can be considered a successful solution, however, it is not yet the time for Ou Chuyang to fulfill his promise to everyone, after the matter of the medicine garden is resolved, the little brother promised everyone's things, he will send someone to send them, please bear with me." As for Brother Bian's poisoning..."
Ou Chuyang glanced at Bian Kui who was in a coma, and then said: "The junior brother will configure the antidote in a while, and ask Brother Huo to help the junior brother send the eldest brother Bian back first." ”
When Huo Tian heard this, he nodded: "Don't worry, if you Ou Chuyang's words, I, Huo Tian, can trust them, as for Bian Kui, just leave it to me." ”
Ou Chuyang gratefully glanced at the people who helped this time, and when everything was arranged, he turned around and said to Xing Mu: "Great Elder, I think I should explain to you what has happened in the past two years. ”
Xing Mu looked at Ou Chuyang with a faint smile, and the look of appreciation in his eyes was undisguised: "Okay." Come back to the central hall with me. ”
The brightly lit central hall of the Holy Land was not very lively because of the return of the seven elders of the Holy Land, but it was precisely because of the fire that occurred in the Holy Land Medicine Garden at the moment of the return of the former that the atmosphere in the main hall in front of him was depressed for a while.
Sitting neatly in the center of the main hall, Xing Mu was in the first place, and the other six elders were divided into two rows according to their respective positions and ages, sitting on one left and one on the right. In the center of the main hall, there was a young man standing straight.
The boy is none other than Ou Chuyang, who came back from hunting the black blood silkworm. In the eyes of these seven elders, after nearly three years, Ou Chuyang in front of him had long since lost the childish appearance he had seen more than two years ago, replaced by his slightly increased height and the fearless and calm and very firm look on his face.
Ou Chuyang spoke softly, but his voice was not very strong, but it continued to echo in the central hall, and the aftermath continued, word by word, firm as iron. The faces of the elders who were listening changed again and again, and finally they all had an incredible expression.
After Ou Chuyang finished speaking, the silence in the hall returned to death, and even the bright candle flame that was used as an embellishment made an extremely clear sound.
The silence lasted for a long time, and was finally broken by Xingmu: "Hehe, I didn't expect that the little guy who just came to the Holy Land and didn't even have the strength of the martial guard level was able to provoke this big beam and form the strongest gang in the Holy Land since the beginning, however, this is not what I admire, in fact, what I admire the most is what Ou Chuyang did you do." ”
Xingmu smiled, brushed his beard and continued: "It's really not easy to call yourself a healer and give it to others, so that almost the entire students in the Holy Land can give you such a good evaluation of this medicine gang. ”
"However, Ou Chuyang..."Xing Mu said, his words changed: "I and the elders already know about you, and in the Holy Land, this kind of ganging and faction behavior has never been stopped, it doesn't matter. The key is this medicine garden fire incident, after all, it happened within the scope of your territory, if you can't explain it clearly, even if I, the Great Elder, don't say anything, some people won't let you go so easily, so you'd better explain it well. Xingmu said, glancing in Yuan Ming's direction.
When Ou Chuyang heard this, he smiled slightly, he could understand the meaning of Xingmu, these words with both reproach and reminder seemed to be asking Ou Chuyang for guilt, but in fact, it was to ease the oppressive atmosphere in the hall, in order to let Yuan Ming somewhat reduce his blame for Ou Chuyang.
Deeply comprehending the meaning of Xingmu's words, Ou Chuyang bowed down first, and then immediately said: "In fact, this time the medicine garden fire incident, the medicine gang and I, Ou Chuyang, are naturally mainly responsible, after all, when there are no elders, everything in the medicine garden is promoted by me Ou Chuyang." However, the students have some opinions about the fire. ”
"Oh? Hearing this, Xingmu raised his eyebrows and said.
"Hmm. Just now, the student said that in the Holy Land, the student dared to say that he or the Medicine Gang maintained a relatively friendly relationship with almost everyone, but there was one person who was excluded, and that person was Pei Quan, who had some conflicts with the students at that time. After some consideration, the student really couldn't think of anyone who would be dissatisfied with the student besides him, so the student dared to assert that the fire in the medicine garden had something to do with him, even if it was not his doing. Ou Chuyang replied.
"Moreover, the students still have one more thing to report to the elders, that is, not long after the elders left, Pei Quan had sent people to expel the apprentices of the Medicine Garden in the Holy Land Trading Area, and they were not allowed to sell medicines there, and some disobedient Medicine Garden apprentices were even beaten by them. It stands to reason that even if there are not a few elders in charge of this aspect of the Holy Land, some mentors in charge of management should also come forward, but not only that, but later, a year and a half after the establishment of my Medicine Gang, that is, a few days ago, the members of the Medicine Gang wanted to hand over a letter to the outside world, but they were not allowed, and they couldn't say that there should be some connection with someone among the teachers. ”
"Huh?" Hearing Ou Chuyang say this, all the elders were stunned, and at this time, some elders began to be displeased: "Ou Chuyang, don't talk nonsense without reason, be careful to violate the rules of the Holy Land and expel you." ”
Hearing this, Ou Chuyang smiled: "What the elder said is right, the student has no reason, but this guess is not unreasonable." And if you let the students do nothing in the non-competitive area, is this considered a fault of the management instructor?"
As soon as Ou Chuyang refuted, the elder was speechless, opened his mouth, and did not find a good excuse, so he gave up.
At this time, Xingmu asked, "What do you mean..."
"Huh. The students are just guessing, and what the elders think? That's not the student's business. Ou Chuyang said half-jokingly, but his eyes changed intentionally or unintentionally, and the meaning was obvious: You can do it.
Taking in Ou Chuyang's expression, Xingmu was no longer indifferent, and his solemn color slowly climbed up.
After pondering for a moment, Xing Mu finally spoke: "What you said involves too much in this regard, if there is no solid basis, we will not change anything, in addition, someone must be found responsible for the fire in the medicine garden, so there must be a proper solution to this matter, you..."
"That's what the Great Elder said. Before Xing Mu finished speaking, Ou Chuyang said again: "If this medicine garden is on fire, our Medicine Gang will definitely track down the arsonist and fulfill our responsibility, which is understandable." However, if the matter involves a level that our students can't touch, then the students will be powerless, if the elders don't want to change anything because of Ou Chuyang's small role... , you can also expel the students from the holy place, and the students will not have half a complaint. ”
Ou Chuyang said unscrupulously, not taking the elders angry at all at all, but with a relaxed expression.
Of course, at this time, Ou Chu ** was not afraid that they would expel him from the holy land. The reason was that Ou Chuyang had already thought about it before he came: first, didn't he come to the holy land to prolong his life, and then get the antidote to save his life from the face. Now that the cortex of the black blood silkworm has arrived, the detoxification period is close at hand, and the poison source crystal has also been obtained, which can be said to be a lot of gains; “
After Ou Chuyang finished speaking, the corners of his two mouths couldn't help but bend into a wicked arc, and that appearance made the seven elders look at him with an urge to strangle him. It's just that the seven elders are just thinking about it, just as Ou Chuyang thought, these old men seem to have incomparable majesty, but in front of Ou Chuyang, they are no different from toothless tigers, just a form.
"Alas~" After being silent for a long time, Xing Mu finally sighed helplessly and said: "Okay, in terms of the mentor, we will investigate thoroughly, but the medicine garden side is up to you, I hope you can handle this matter as quickly as possible, because we don't have much time." ”
Hearing this, Ou Chuyang smiled, and immediately bowed down and said, "What the elder said is, if you don't mention it, I will forget, don't worry, the student will definitely find out about this matter and give an explanation to the elders." ”
"Alright. Let's go back and check it out. Seeing Ou Chuyang's respectful appearance, Xing Mu was angry, as if he was impatient, and "invited" Ou Chuyang out of the central hall.
Coming out of the central hall, Ou Chuyang walked straight in the direction of the medicine garden, although he didn't use any internal qi, but along the way, the former's brows tightened and tightened, his complexion changed several times, and the speed also accelerated. Don't look at the seven elders before, Ou Chuyang talked and laughed freely, and seemed to be unimpressed by the fire incident in the medicine garden, and even made a bamboo in his chest. But in fact, he is boiling dumplings in a teapot - he knows it. After all, he couldn't get out of it when such a major event happened within the scope of his jurisdiction, so in Ou Chuyang's contemplation, time flew by, and it didn't take long for him to return to his residence.
When Ou Chuyang pushed the door open, Xu Jie'er, Dongfang Xue, Xiao Ling'er, Owen, and Qi Ling were all there, and even Huang Lang and a few apprentices from the medicine garden were also sitting in the room, not saying a word, looking extremely dull. There were so many people in the small wooden hut that the hut was suddenly so full that there was no place to stay.
"Hehe, they're all here. Come on, move things to the side, it's too crowded. Putting away that tense expression, Ou Chuyang walked into the house with a smile.
"Ou Chuyang. How's it going?"
The first to speak was Dongfang Xue, with a look of eagerness on her cheeks, obviously, for the sake of the fire in the medicine garden, Ou Chuyang was summoned by several elders, and the former seemed extremely concerned.
"Huh. Nothing. I have already talked to the elders, and I will not blame us for the time being, but this time, we still need to find out for ourselves, and then give them a satisfactory answer, in short, the situation is not too bad. Ou Chuyang said indifferently, as if this matter was not too serious.
"Most of the medicinal materials in the entire medicine garden are gone, it's not too bad, so how can it be considered bad?" Seeing that Ou Chuyang still had this calm expression, Huang Lang, who had a really cool personality, couldn't help but feel anxious for the former.
Ou Chuyang glanced at Huang Lang and said indifferently: "Big brother, don't worry, let's sit together and think about it." ”
Hearing this, Xu Jie'er took over and said, "Don't think about it, according to me, it must be a good thing done by Pei Quan." Be sure to find him to theorize well. ”
When the medicine garden caught fire, Xu Jie'er was naturally in the medicine garden, and such a big thing happened, and it was not stopped and saved in time, the former was also extremely angry, and even, in the past two years, the development of the medicine gang can be described as rapid, and the strength of their new students two years ago has also been greatly improved compared with before, in this, Xu Jie'er, Dongfang Xue, and Xiao Ling'er are already at the peak of Wuwei's strength, and even Owen is extremely close. With the addition of Huang Lang, a fourth-level martial artist in the Medicine Gang, his strength is incomparable. With such a powerful force and strength, even if Pei Li succeeds in getting out, the current medicine gang also has the capital to clamoring with it. So for Pei Quan, a villain who has nothing to do, Xu Jieer will not be afraid.
Looking at the angry Xu Jie'er helplessly, Ou Chuyang was angry for a while, thinking: A girl of the same age, why can't Xu Jie'er be quieter, calmer, and gentler like Dongfang Xue. Alas, the gap between being a woman is really big.
Thinking of this, Ou Chuyang just wanted to explain, but Dongfang Xue first persuaded: "Jie'er, no." Now we don't have conclusive evidence to determine what Pei Quan did, even if you find him, the seven elders have come back now, he won't admit it, in this way, not only will it not be beneficial for us to find out about this matter, but it will also startle the snake. ”
Glancing at Dongfang Xue appreciatively, Ou Chuyang nodded, and said in his heart: Look at others, how comprehensive you think. “
Thinking of this, Ou Chuyang continued: "Hmm." Xue'er is right, this matter should not be rash, we still need to think about it. ”
Speaking of this, Ou Chuyang looked at the two Medicine Garden apprentices who were knocked unconscious last night and asked, "When you were on duty last night, you were knocked unconscious, did you see anything before?"
The two students heard Ou Chuyang ask, you look at me, I look at you, and then they both shook their heads, and one of them said bitterly: "I didn't see anything, I only felt a gust of wind blowing at that time, and then I didn't know anything." ”
Another student also nodded: "Me too." ”
After listening to this, Ou Chuyang looked at Qi Ling and asked, "When you cleaned up the medicine garden just now, did you find anything, such as any important things?"
Qi Ling spread his hands and said, "Nothing." ”
Hearing this, Ou Chuyang sighed: "Alas~, this is difficult, there is no witness, and nothing can be found, so there is no physical evidence, no human evidence and no physical evidence, even if the arsonist stands in front of us, we can't bring him down." How can this be good. ”
After several interrogations, they did not get the slightest favorable result, and everyone was speechless for a moment, and one by one they fell into bitter thought.
At this moment, there was a sudden and urgent knock on the door outside the room.
"Tuk~"
"Come in. ”
The door opened, and a member of the Medicine Gang came in and reported, "Boss, there's a handsome man from outside who wants to see you." ”
