The clan leader didn't know if Xun'er had really been bewitched to behave like this, because Murong Xi was too cunning, how could he let him see Xun'er so easily. And this was such a coincidence, why did he go there after
Just happened to meet Xun'er running out of the side hall?
Even if Xun'er didn't lie to him, it's possible that Murong Xi was using Xun'er to deceive him. Because, he could think of using Xun'er, and with Murong Xi's cunningness, he could naturally use her to deal with him.
But, does Xun'er know about it?
"Did I yell at you that time?" Xun'er asked cautiously.
Xun'er's words brought the clan leader back to his senses. He twitched his lips and said, "How could it be possible? You had already forgiven me at that time. It was all my fault. I shouldn't have doubted your second uncle."
Xun'er waved his hand and said, "No, I'm too sensitive, because when I saw my second uncle, he looked so miserable. When I heard you doubted him again, I couldn't control it.
.But who knows, I will have an attack at that time."
"Xun'er, what disease did you get, and you became like this after trying to cure the poison?" the clan leader asked.
"I don't know. I wasn't sleeping all the time. In fact, I had woken up a long time ago. But at that time, I was crazy and confused all the time, so I thought I had been sleeping. Later, it was the saint who diagnosed my pulse and gave me acupuncture.
There has been some improvement." Xun'er said.
"Could it be..." The clan leader hesitated and swallowed back what he wanted to say.
"What is it? You should tell me." Xun'er continued to ask.
"Don't be upset if I tell you." The patriarch said.
"Speak quickly." Xun'er said.
"Actually, I suspect that the saint has poisoned you, but I don't dare to lie." The patriarch thought for a while and said.
"How could it be? If the saint cast a poison on me, why would she save me?" Xun'er asked in confusion.
"You also know that she has always disliked me and has always been prejudiced against me. So, she wants to use you to spy on me. Of course, it's not that I don't believe you. It's because I trust you that I say these things to you."
The patriarch finally explained quickly.
Xun'er looked at the patriarch and said, "The saint doesn't want me to see you because of my uncle's instructions. I know this. I just said that while standing at the door because I want to see you so much. How could the saint do this to me?"
You are biased, after all, the Saintess clan is leaving Fengtian Sect."
"What? Are we leaving? Have the elders already discussed it? By the way, have they already gone down the mountain? There is no one in the backyard," the patriarch said.
"The elders are still here. Because the backyard is inconvenient, they moved to the inner hall. After a while, we will leave. Chief, the people in the clan are actually very angry because they already know that you are here.
But I think if you sincerely admit your mistake, the elders will forgive you. Moreover, we won’t stay in Fengtian Sect for too long, so why don’t you leave with us then." Xun'er thought.
He thought about it and said.
"Leave? Do you really think the elders will forgive me? Xun'er, why don't you just walk away with me?" the clan leader said suddenly.
"Fly away? Patriarch, we can't be so selfish. I've already hurt my second uncle's heart once, and I can't be so unfilial anymore." Xun'er said.
"The people in the clan will not forgive me, are you willing to leave me?" the clan leader said in a low voice.
"Clan leader, since you have done something wrong, it is better to ask for forgiveness from the elders. They have loved you since you were a child, and you are the head of the clan. How could they not forgive you?" Xun'er said.
"Xun'er, you are too naive, do you know the elders...forget it, it's okay if you don't know," the clan leader said.
"Clan leader, isn't it like this?" Xun'er asked.
In fact, the patriarch certainly knows that the elders are not sincere to him. They are just doing it for his grandfather's entrustment. If there is no grandfather, how can they be so attentive to him. In particular, Elder Bai always thinks that his grandfather should not choose him to become the clan leader.
Every time he speaks to himself, he is very harsh. He has really had enough. Does he really think that he cares about the position of the patriarch?
"It was grandpa's wish to become the patriarch. In fact, the elders are more optimistic about Wen Yao from the second uncle's family. If grandpa hadn't insisted, the patriarch would have been someone else. What's more, in fact, I don't care about the position of the patriarch at all. Who will be the patriarch in the future?
I am not worried at all as the clan leader. After what happened, I reflected that I was really wrong, especially to you, which was really unfair. So, I asked the witch master to let me see you. Even so.
If you don't forgive me, I will let you know that I really regret it." The patriarch said with a guilty look on his face.
"Wen Yao? Is it Wen Yao that the elders are optimistic about?" Xun'er asked in surprise.
"That's right, grandpa was seriously ill at the time. If it weren't for the insistence of doubt, the clan leader would have replaced him." The clan leader said.
Wen Yao is the eldest son of the patriarch's second uncle's family. He has been very lively since he was a child. He is exactly the opposite of the patriarch. He is also very polite when meeting elders. It is natural that the elders will like him. The patriarch has been withdrawn since he was a child. She is the only one.
I was willing to talk to the clan leader at that time.
Of course she remembered that the elders liked Wen Yao very much, but she never knew that the elders had planned to make Wen Yao the clan leader.
"It turns out that the clan leader has wronged you." Xun'er said.
"That's nothing. I'm very satisfied with Grandpa's preference." The patriarch said.
"Then what are your plans now?" Xun'er asked.
"I have something that I lost in the secret cave after I entered it last time. I think there is a chance
If you plan to leave, go in and find it before leaving." The clan leader said.
"What's missing? Why are you so careless?" Xun'er asked.
"It would be fine if it was an ordinary object. The main reason is that a jade pendant left by my grandfather fell into the secret cave. The last time I entered the secret cave, I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I was already...
It's already in the darkroom. I searched all over my body, but I didn't find the jade pendant. If I think about it carefully, I might have lost it in the secret cave at that time." The patriarch said with regret.
"But, why would the Witch Lord let you enter the secret cave casually? What's more, you broke in secretly last time, and the Witch Lord would not allow you." Xun'er said.
"So, I need Xun'er's help." The clan leader said in a low voice.
Xun'er raised his eyes and glanced at the clan leader, then immediately withdrew his gaze and lowered his head. The clan leader could tell that Xun'er seemed to be in a difficult situation.
"I...Clan Chief, why don't you tell the Lord Witch to go in and help you search? Just now you said that after entering the secret cave, you lost consciousness. I don't want you to go to the secret cave again."
Er said a little nervously.
"I will be more careful this time, and I just go in to look for something. When I find something, I will come out." The patriarch said.
"However, it is too dangerous in the secret cave." Xun'er said.
The clan leader smiled slightly and said: "If Xun'er doesn't want me to go, then I won't go. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of yourself. Nothing else is as important. When you feel better, I will go and talk to my second uncle."
Apologize. I hope he can forgive me. As long as he can forgive me, I really don’t care about the position of the patriarch."
"Clan leader." Xun'er looked as if he was moved.
"Xun'er, I'm really worried about you. How about I diagnose your pulse? In Fengtian, I don't believe anyone except you." The clan leader said.
Xun'er hesitated for a moment, then nodded and stretched out his hand.
The clan leader pulled her to sit aside, and then began to check Xun'er's pulse.
Xun'er's pulse was normal and there was no sign of being poisoned. The patriarch turned Xun'er's wrist over and clearly saw a dark mark. That was the poison he had given to Xun'er. It seemed that Murong Xi had not noticed it.
. It stands to reason that after he left that time, Murong Xi would have carefully checked Xun'er's body, but he didn't find that Xun'er was poisoned?
Moreover, Murong Xi did not poison Xi'er. Doesn't Murong Xi have any purpose for Xun'er?
"What's wrong? Is it serious?" Xun'er asked.
"It's not very serious. I just need to take good care of myself. There's nothing serious about my health. It seems that I'm trying to judge a gentleman with a villain's heart. But again, I have to be careful in everything." The patriarch said.
"I understand." Xun'er said.
The patriarch knew that there was no way to persuade Xun'er to participate in the plan, so he had to give up temporarily. The patriarch said to her: "Xun'er, when I come to see you another day, you have to remember to be careful."
"I know." Xun'er replied.
After Xun'er sent the clan leader to the gate, he returned to the side hall. The clan leader didn't leave directly. After seeing Xun'er turn around and leave, he walked half way forward, cast a witchcraft and returned, just in time to see Xun'er enter the side hall.
temple.
But after Xun'er entered the side hall, he actually went directly into the inner room. Murong Xi didn't show up. Wasn't Xun'er's sudden appearance planned?
The patriarch's heart was full of doubts, but he didn't know what to say. Just when he thought there was nothing more to say, he saw Murong Xi hurriedly entered the side hall. As he expected, things would not be that simple. So, the patriarch also
He flew and hid on the roof to eavesdrop.
"Xun'er, what did you just say to the clan leader?" Murong Xi asked.
"Holy girl, actually I know it was my second uncle who asked you to look at me, but you have also seen that I really can't live without the patriarch. I have thought about the previous things for a long time. I know I am sorry for my uncle, but I would rather give the patriarch a chance.
." Xun'er said.
"Do you know what you are talking about? He did this for a purpose. Your second uncle also prevents you from meeting him because he knows him too well. Moreover, your second uncle's injury has nothing to do with him. You have
I broke my second uncle's heart once, do I have to do it again?" Murong Xi asked.
"No, he will ask his second uncle for forgiveness this time. I believe he can do it," Xun'er said.
"Are you really not worried that he will hurt you? He treated you like that before, and he doesn't deserve you to be so kind to him." Murong Xi said.
"Holy Girl, you seem to be taking a little too much care. I will handle my own affairs myself." Xun'er said stiffly.
"If it weren't for your second uncle, do you think I would be nosy?" Murong Xi said with a sneer.
"Holy girl, my tone just now was not very good. I know you will do it for my own good, but I am willing to give the patriarch a chance. What if he really changes his ways?" Xun'er said.
"Xun'er, do you really believe him so much?" Murong Xi asked in confusion.
"Yes, that's right." Xun'er said.
"What if he has any purpose in approaching you? The last time he took advantage of you has not been long ago. What if he wants to take advantage of you again this time?" Murong Xi said coldly.
"How could it be? He said he wouldn't care about anything." Xun'er retorted Murong Xi's words.
"You can't listen to what I say now. It's better to talk about it later." Murong Xi shook his head and said.
