"Venerable Huangsha, please have some tea!"
"Venerable Yinghua, would you like to eat some fruit?"
…
In Danxia Palace, as Venerable Huangsha opened his mouth to ask Zhang Xuezhou, Zhang Xuezhou suddenly felt as if he had been given a shot of blood.
With saliva flying from his mouth, he began to accuse Hong Ku of all kinds of wrongdoings.
A few minutes into the lecture, Zhang Xuezhou moved a plate of fruits and tea under Venerable Lei's lecture platform.
He brought tea and water to all the venerables, and also carried a fruit plate.
After being handed around, Zhang Xuezhou grabbed the fruit and stuffed it into his mouth.
The sour taste in his mouth made Zhang Xuezhou feel bad. He quickly took a big gulp of tea.
"Venerable Lei's taste is quite special, let's just drink some tea," Venerable Yinghua said.
"I ate his thunderbolt fruit in the past years, and it was so sour that I wanted to be struck by lightning," Venerable Huangsha hissed.
"He never had anything good to eat here!"
The names of the other three Venerables are Venerable Black Mountain, Venerable Zhihuang, and Venerable White Bones.
Compared with the sharpness of his previous words against Hongku, Venerable Yinghua spoke more reservedly at this time, while Venerable Huangsha lamented after suffering.
This made the other three sages also join the camp of complaining.
These three Venerables are older and have spent more time in contact with Venerable Lei than others. The case of Venerable Huangsha is not special. They have also been tricked before.
"Ah~"
Zhang Xuezhou's face was twisted into a ball as he bit the fruit randomly. The tea did not save Zhang Xuezhou, but made sour water flow from his mouth.
Venerable Huangsha is right, this fruit is so sour that it makes people want to be struck by lightning.
"It's all a bunch of hindsight!"
Zhang Xuezhou could not help but think about all the venerables.
"He often brings all kinds of weird fruits, with different colors and sizes, making it difficult for people to identify them!" said the White Bone Venerable.
"Let's just drink some tea, but don't eat the fruit!" Venerable Yinghua said.
"But don't tell me, some of the fruits obtained by Venerable Lei are not good, but some are really good." The very old Venerable Heishan said: "His ancestors ate the fruit and grew a pair of wind and thunder wings, and thus dominated the world. Top flying skills, their family has extremely good talent in picking fruits!"
"Then I have to be able to eat his good fruits." Venerable Zhihuang said with a smile: "I ate the fruits four times without belief in him, and then regretted them four times!"
"I heard that there was a demon monkey named Feng Feng who stole one of his fruits and had the ability to travel through space for a short time. This ability is enviable!"
"Report the news, where is your doorman named Fengfeng? Ask him to come out and perform a performance of traveling through space."
"Grandpas, Ventilation Monkey couldn't stand the punishment of his master, so he ran away to hide from the disaster and didn't come back for more than ten years!"
…
Zhang Xuezhou was so sore that his face was deformed and he could not speak normally, so the several sages could only pass the time by chatting.
"Punishment?"
Zhang Xuezhou regretted it a little.
In order to cooperate with Hongku, he took the tea and fruits from Danxia Palace and prepared them for the venerables to taste and then form consumables that could be used to cast spells and mark them.
He even gave a demonstration in advance.
But Zhang Xuezhou didn't expect that the fruits here could not be eaten freely by Venerable Lei.
Not to mention eating wrong, you will probably be punished for eating fruit.
Even Venerable Zhihuang said it was 'stealing', so Zhang Xuezhou's behavior must also be 'stealing'.
Stealing will most likely result in punishment.
After listening to the words exchanged among the venerables, Zhang Xuezhou's head shook. He wiped away his sore tears, and then struggled to walk out, no longer caring about completing Hong Ku's task.
"Hey, Wu Jin, haven't you finished speaking yet?"
"Don't leave in a hurry!"
"What are you afraid of? I just ate a piece of fruit!"
"Yes, the most you can do is carry water for the water tank of Venerable Lei Danxia Palace for ten years. This is not a harsh punishment!"
"You can still take this opportunity to stay in the Holy Land. Maybe you can continue to learn Venerable Lei's "Yunzhongshu" in the future!"
All the venerables blocked the way.
This made Zhang Xuezhou immediately understand why the venerables knew that there was something wrong with Venerable Lei's fruit but did not stop him from eating the fruit.
To be able to ascend to the position of venerable, it is obvious that none of these people are stupid, they all pretended to be deaf and dumb and waited for him to take a bite of the fruit first.
Whenever he is punished by Lord Lei, he will definitely stay in the Holy Land to do odd jobs in the future.
Not to mention that the venerables used him to deal with Hongku, but whenever there was a need, the venerables could obviously call him at any time.
Moreover, this will also involve Venerable Lei, who maintains a neutral attitude, in related incidents.
When Zhang Xuezhou plotted against the venerables, he was obviously played around by the venerables.
"I...I...are...sick. I want...to go back...to get treatment. Please make...way!"
After Zhang Xuezhou wiped his tears, he spit out another mouthful of acidic water. When Zhang Xuezhou raised his finger and pointed in the direction of the mountain, he realized that his finger had turned light blue.
This is somewhat different from the 'black', 'gray', 'purple', 'cyan' and 'pale' skin that appears after poisoning, but the light blue color is obviously not a good sign.
Zhang Xuezhou struggled to go out, and Venerable Montenegro suddenly grasped Zhang Xuezhou's wrist.
He couldn't touch it for more than two seconds and then let go.
"I ate poisonous fruit!" said the Venerable Black Mountain.
"Then he's a bit unlucky!" said Venerable Huangsha.
"It's hard to tell the nature of the fruit here, Venerable Lei, but Venerable Lei won't pick the poisonous fruit and come back. He shouldn't die, but some torture is inevitable!" Venerable Yinghua said.
"I hope he will remember this lesson in life," said Venerable Zhihuang: "When the toxicity is greatly weakened, he will still be punished by Venerable Lei!"
"I think Ugin has learned a lot of lessons in the Holy Land!"
Lord Bones shrugged.
He took a bone fan and fanned it at Zhang Xuezhou. Zhang Xuezhou's body suddenly stiffened a lot and no longer shivered as before.
Seeing Zhang Xuezhou staggering out of Danxia Palace, all the venerables couldn't help but booed a little.
"Hong Ku's Snake Head Curse is not a secret, but his Death Curse is indeed interesting. To break Hong Ku, we must first kill those who are related to Hong Ku and his master!"
"Hongku has even expelled his students from the school and is now alone. Has his death curse been broken?"
"Wujin said that Hongku is also good at deducing positioning. Does that seem to be the inheritance of Nanfan continent's physiognomy?"
"As long as our hair, essence, blood, and birth dates are not taken by Hongku, his inheritance of physiognomy is nothing!"
"Even if he has accurately calculated the location where we will appear, does he, a great practitioner of the magical power realm, still want to ambush us?"
"Our destination is not his array house!"
"I heard that he now goes to the Fuhua Palace during the day and returns to the mansion at night!"
"I don't know whether Wenhuang was manipulated by him or his lifeblood, and now he is mixed up with Hongku!"
"Wenhuang's methods tend to focus on group killings and killing the weak. Her methods are not as good as mine. Even if she gets together with Hongku, it won't be of much use!"
…
As Zhang Xuezhou left the palace, all the venerables spoke of Hong Ku.
Under the futon where Zhang Xuezhou listened to the Dharma, a strand of hair lay quietly there, constantly listening to the voices of the venerables.
When all the venerables had nothing to talk about and left Danxia Palace, the palace suddenly became quiet, and several attendants began to clean up the place where the lectures were given.
"No need to clean up, everyone get out!"
The waiters were just about to start tidying up when a large door in the palace opened, revealing the body of Lord Lei.
He glanced at the attendants and then asked them to step back.
In the lecture venue, several tea cups were still warm.
Venerable Lei stared at it for a few times before calling out, "Venerable Hong Ku".
The hair emerged from under the futon, and then turned into a slender black rope, tying many teacups together.
When Master Lei took out a tray, many teacups were tied up with black ropes and moved up.
Venerable Lei spread his wings behind him and waved his wings gently without making a sound. When he appeared again, his body had already appeared in the Fuhua Palace.
