The clan leader is indeed not simple, otherwise he would not have such thoughts. What he has always been interested in is actually the secret cave in Xianyun Palace, but she and Ji Limo both underestimated him and thought he was just for Xianyun Palace.
Forbidden spells and treasure maps.
It's funny to think about it. It turns out that the treasures of the tribe are not worth the secret cave in Xianyun Palace. But that secret cave is so terrifying, why is the clan leader so obsessed with it?
She thought that the clan leader might just be fascinated by the secret cave because it was so mysterious, but the poison he gave those women was very similar to the secret cave.
This means that he must know something about the secret cave. But why did he insist on entering the secret cave despite the risk of being poisoned?
Although Murong Xi had not figured out the purpose of the clan leader, she had almost confirmed that the clan leader must know the secret of the secret cave.
So, she subconsciously said: "What is there in the secret cave that fascinates him?"
In fact, Ji Limo couldn't figure this out. Of course he understood Murong Xi's doubts, but his confusion was because he had experienced it himself. In addition to the biting cold, there was only darkness and no end in sight in the secret cave.
The entrance of the cave. Apart from that, they saw nothing.
"Are you curious too?" Ji Limo asked.
"I'm just curious. You all said it was bitingly cold inside. Why didn't he come out in a hurry after going in? I think he should have known what was inside. You must know that if he feels uncomfortable after going in, he will go out immediately. So that's right.
What's the reason that keeps him refusing to come out?" Murong Xi thought for a while and asked.
"Don't you remember what Yinyue's mother said? After Yinyue's father's second brother went in, he disappeared in an instant. He had never entered a secret cave before. If he wasn't looking for them like us, he wouldn't have gone in there at all.
Just one step. So, what is he doing for?" Ji Limo said.
"I think this is the secret of the secret cave. There are still some things inside that we didn't notice, otherwise we wouldn't have let the clan leader leave. In fact, what I'm a little confused about is why you all went in, but only the clan leader was alone.
Are you poisoned?" Murong Xi said.
"That's why I am very curious about what is going on. Even Yinyue's father's second brother is like this. The three of them went in together, and only one of them had an accident. After Yinyue's mother came out, she was also poisoned. According to her
According to the description, this kind of poison is consistent with the poison poisoned by the girls before. However, Yinyue's father was not poisoned, but his meridians were injured by the cold air inside, causing the cold air to enter the body." Ji Limo said.
"I plan to discuss it with my master and the old man about Xun'er's detoxification. I hope my master has seen the records about the secret cave in the ancestral hall, so that we don't have to make random guesses." Murong Xi said. "Okay, I will let you know in a moment.
I will take the two old men over. But you must also pay attention to your health and not be too pushy." Ji Limo said.
"Don't worry, I will only do what I can." Murong Xi said.
In fact, Murong Xi has always been worried. The disappearance of the clan leader caught them off guard. After learning the secret of the secret cave, they realized that there was actually a person in the secret cave. But no one opened the secret cave to save people back then, nor did they.
They knew whether the man escaped after entering the secret cave. And the reason they were sure that the clan leader was still alive was because the poisonous insects and the cold air in Xun'er's body were so weird.
The secret cave was indeed a bit strange. They had no way of knowing whether it was naturally formed. However, she knew that she would definitely not be able to enter that secret cave. She had poisoned the clan leader before, and even the poisonous insects were still alive, which made it even more complicated.
It's weird.
Secret Cave, what kind of place is it?
By evening, Ji Limo's people had brought the old man and his master to Fengtian Sect.
When the master saw that Murong Xi had lost weight again, he worriedly said: "Xier, why did you lose weight again? How did you take care of her?"
Feng Mingye said quickly: "It's all my fault. She has really worked hard these days."
"Master, how can you blame Aye for this? A lot of things have happened these days. Let me take you and the old man there first to take a look." Murong Xi said.
"It's okay, we can't delay this matter, but your body..." the master said with some worry.
The master couldn't see Murong Xi being aggrieved. Now that she was pregnant, she couldn't work too hard. So, he asked with heartache.
"Don't worry, Master, Xi'er knows what's going on." Murong Xi said with a smile.
How could Feng Mingye let Xi'er leave alone, so they went to the backyard again.
When Elder Bai saw that the witch master and the saint were coming in person with their people, there must be something important going on. He hurried forward to greet them and said, "The saint of the witch master's family."
Because he heard that the saint had been to the backyard before, he was very surprised to come twice in one day.
"Well, this is the Valley Master of Yaowang Valley. He came here specifically to see Elder Xun." Ji Limo said.
"It turns out that he is the owner of Yaowang Valley. I have met the owner. Xun'er hasn't woken up since he was sent back, so..." Elder Bai said respectfully.
To be honest, he didn't expect to alert the old Valley Master of Yaowang Valley. Although he knew that the Holy Girl was the current Valley Master, he really didn't expect the arrival of the old Valley Master.
"Elder Bai, don't be nervous, because I have already been here today and checked Xun'er's pulse. It's just that the clan leader poisoned her and Ji Limo secretly changed the medicine, so she kept sleeping. It's a bit difficult to remove the poison from her.
It's difficult, that's why I invited my master here." Murong Xi said with a smile.
"I see, please ask the saint to take the valley owner in." Elder Bai said respectfully.
Feng Mingye and Ji Limo stayed in the front hall, while Murong Xi took the master and the old man into the house.
After entering the room, Murong Xi felt that the temperature in the room was extremely low. She asked, "Why is the temperature in this room so low?"
The girl who took care of her said: "It's Elder Xun. Her body is exuding cold air. For some reason, she started to feel cold all over. We had no choice but to light a charcoal pot in this room. But the strange thing is that the temperature was not at all
It didn’t rise.”
Murong Xi and her master looked at each other and hurriedly walked to Xun'er's side. They lifted the quilt and felt a chill coming out of the quilt.
"It is indeed very problematic." Master said.
"When I came today, it was not so serious. I just felt a cold air in my body and my meridians were damaged." Murong Xi said. Murong Xi was startled by Xun'er, who was all cold and just wanted to give her
He checked his pulse, but his master patted his hand down.
"You are pregnant now and your body can't bear it at all. Let me come and you sit over there." The master said.
Murong Xi then listened to the master's words and sat aside. The master put a handkerchief on Xun'er's wrist and began to diagnose her pulse.
Xun'er's meridians were damaged and her body temperature was too low. If she didn't get rid of the poison as soon as possible, she might not survive tonight.
"This girl's problem is very serious. She needs to be given acupuncture first to release some of the cold air from her body." The master said to Murong Xi. Murong Xi nodded and opened the medicine box.
, took out the silver needle and put it on the table. The master waved his hand and asked Murong Xi to go out first. Murong Xi wanted to help the master, but the master refused at all.
She knew that the purpose of acupuncture was to force out the cold air, and her master was worried about her, so he let her come out. She was pregnant with a child and couldn't bear the cold air, so she didn't argue with her master and happily listened to his words and came out.
The master asked the woman to help Xun'er up, and then asked her to go out first. The master quickly picked up the silver needle and inserted a needle into Xun'er's Baihui point. Then he started to look for other acupoints, and he moved very quickly.
Xun'er's body was covered with silver needles.
The master began to give her internal energy. After a quarter of an hour, Xun'er's face began to turn rosy and steam began to emit from her head. The master withdrew the internal force and pulled out the silver needles from Xun'er's body one by one.
After the silver needle was pulled out, the master said to the goose woman guarding the door: "Come in and help her wipe her body with hot water. Remember to use hot water, otherwise the cold air will easily invade again."
The woman nodded and immediately went to the kitchen. When she came back, she saw a pot of boiling water in her hand.
The woman wiped Xun'er's body and changed into a set of inner clothes. She found that the mattress on the bed was soaked. So, she moved Xun'er to the soft mattress. After changing it to a clean mattress, she turned around and left.
After the master came out, Murong Xi asked: "Master, is something wrong?"
The master nodded and said: "For the time being, some of the cold air has been discharged from her body, but it is only temporary. The worms in her body are very strange and can only be controlled temporarily."
"This matter is a long story. I will discuss it with you in detail when I get back. Since it has been suppressed for the time being, let's go out first." Murong Xi said.
"Okay." Master said.
After leaving the house, she went straight to the front hall. When Feng Mingye saw that they had come out, she got up and planned to leave together.
"Elder Bai, I will leave the children to you. If Elder Xun has any symptoms, please let me know immediately." Ji Limo said.
"Yes, Master Wu Zun. At the same time, I would like to thank the Valley Master for coming here." Elder Bai said respectfully.
Several people returned to the front hall together. After sitting down, the master drank a cup of tea and then said, "Tell me what happened. How did that girl get the ice poison?"
Murong Xi thought for a while and said: "It's the poison poisoned by the patriarch of the Saintess clan. It's a long story..."
Murong Xi told the whole story of how the clan leader entered the secret cave, and then told the master that he not only poisoned Xun'er, but also used those children to raise the poison.
The more the master listened, the uglier his face became. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and said: "It's so abominable. It's unreasonable. How could he do this? And you said he's still in the forbidden area now? With the witch master himself, it's impossible to catch him, right?
?”
Murong Xi looked at Ji Limo, who nodded, and then Murong Xi continued: "Master, have you ever heard of the secret cave in the forbidden area?"
"A secret cave in a forbidden area?" Master asked in shock.
Murong Xi knew that he had asked the right person, because the master's reaction told him that even if the master had not been in, he should have heard about it.
"Yes, it's the secret cave in the forbidden area. Have you ever heard of it?" Murong Xi asked.
The master finally recovered from the shock, because he did not expect Murong Xi to mention the secret cave. He sighed before starting to say: "I knew this would happen sooner or later."
