Speaking of the seniors, they had been away all night. Mu Jingyu stood up and opened the window with some worry. He saw a ray of morning sun shining into the room. He looked around and saw Yu Yuanxiu walking quickly.
After seeing Mu Jingyu from a distance, he waved and jogged a few steps: "Jingyu, I've made breakfast. Come out quickly. Also, where have the others gone? I'm going to their room." I searched everywhere and found that Qin Yunchuan and others are not here."
After hearing Yu Yuanxiu's voice, Qin Yunchuan quickly opened the door and said, "Brother Yu, we are all here."
After walking into the house, Yu Yuanxiu said: "I asked why I couldn't find everyone, but it turns out they are all here." After scanning around, he found four more familiar faces, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Chen En, Coral, Xie Yingfei Xie Yingjue, when did you come?"
"Of course it was while you were cooking." Zhou Yan answered, and then told the story of the four people who came to help Mu Jingyu. Finally, he greeted everyone and said: "Master Guo's matter cannot be completely resolved for a while. Everyone must be hungry, so we should go have breakfast first and wait for the seniors to come back."
Arriving at a wooden house that Yu Yuanxiu had temporarily packed, the aroma of food filled his nostrils. Although it is just some simple meals, in Yu Yuanxiu's hands, they are as delicious as delicacies from the mountains and the sea, making people want to eat with their fingers.
After everyone sat down, Mu Jingyu glanced around and suddenly found that Jin Yingzi was not among them. He couldn't help but ask: "Why didn't Sister Jin come? Did any of you know where she went?"
More than ten people looked at me, and I looked at you, and in the end they all shook their heads and showed they didn't know. It was Di Nanxun who helped Di Huaien walk to the room and told everyone where Jin Yingzi was.
It turned out that when it was almost early in the morning, Jin Yingzi, who was keeping vigil with Di Nanxun, suddenly received a message from Ba Zheng. After telling Di Nanxun, he immediately set off to meet Ba Zheng. Because Di Nanxun had to take care of Di Huai'en, he did not tell everyone about it in time.
Now that we know where Jin Yingzi is going, everyone has nothing to worry about. Halfway through the meal, I heard footsteps coming from outside the door. From the hurried footsteps, it was obvious that the person coming had something very urgent.
"Jingyu, have you eaten?" An urgent voice came over before the visitor entered the room.
"Sister Jin, you are back. Have you received Senior Ba Zheng?" Mu Jingyu quickly stood up, moved a chair and said: "It's just right, the food is still warm now, you can eat some first to fill your stomach. Bar."
Jin Yingzi must have something very urgent, and she didn't even have time to scan everyone: "Let's not rush about eating. Elder Ba Zheng has already been waiting in your room, saying that he has something important to discuss with you. If you are full, come with me first."
"Okay!" Upon hearing that Ba Zheng had arrived, Mu Jingyu didn't bother to eat. After putting down his bowls and chopsticks, he urged Jin Yingzi to lead the way.
Jin Yingzi did not hesitate, and after saying hello to everyone, she led Mu Jingyu towards the wooden house where he lived before.
After opening the door, he saw Ba Zheng sitting in front of the bed, checking Guo Qingshan's injuries. After hearing the sound of the two people coming in, he said: "Mu Shaoxia, how is your situation? I heard from Chief Jin that you almost lost your life on the Yuxiao Stage yesterday."
"Senior, don't worry. Thanks to everyone who came to the rescue in time, I saved a life. It's just Uncle Guo... well, the situation is not optimistic." Mu Jingyu first smiled gratefully, and then looked at Guo Qingshan, worried. said.
Ba Zheng comforted him: "Don't worry, I just took a look at Guo Qingshan's condition when you weren't here. There are two Dharma Kings protecting his heart, and it doesn't matter if he lasts for three to five days. It's just that I have no idea what to do next.”
Mu Jingyu said: "Senior, just now the four people from the Shark tribe, Brother Chen En, Sister Huan, Xie Yingfei, and Xie Yingjie, knew that I was trapped in Jiuhua Mountain, so they all came to help. When they saw Uncle Guo's After the situation, it was said that using the bead forest of my tribe can ensure that he is safe for the time being. But it is hard to say how long he can last."
Ba Zheng asked: "Huh? Are you talking about the Pearl Forest of Abyss Colorful Pearls handed down from the Beihai Mermaid Tribe?"
"It's this forest." Mu Jingyu nodded and said, "You happen to be here all the time. Do you think this Pearl Forest can protect Uncle Guo from harm for the time being? If so, how long can it last?"
After thinking for a while, Ba Zheng said uncertainly: "As far as I know, the seven-colored beads of the abyss have the effect of protecting the body and nourishing the body. And the forest of beads has been handed down from ancient times. I am afraid that it is now It's been a thousand years. If Guo Qingshan is temporarily placed in the forest... I think it won't be a big problem if it lasts for a year and a half."
"That's great!" Mu Jingyu clapped his hands and shouted, "A year and a half is enough for me to deal with the current affairs, and then take the time to find a way to help Uncle Guo heal."
Ba Zheng smiled and said: "Is this a way? I probably thought of it."
"Really?" Mu Jingyu didn't expect that Ba Zheng, who had been helpless just now, would suddenly come up with a solution and asked quickly: "What is the solution, senior?"
Ba Zheng first looked at Jin Yingzi, and after seeing her deep in thought, he asked: "Mu Shaoxia, do you know why the high priest, Gu Li and others worked so hard to snatch the Abyss Colorful Pearl, The Tianxiang wood, and the green lotus and green branches of Jinxiu Palace?"
Mu Jingyu didn't know what Ba Zheng's intention was for suddenly mentioning this matter, but he still replied honestly: "Junior once analyzed it with Brother Qin, but based on the current situation at hand, he still couldn't guess that they wanted these geniuses. The purpose of the earth treasure. I just heard a little bit from Sister Jin at first, but later I thought it should have something to do with Chi You’s physical body."
In fact, Mu Jingyu had already known about Chi You's physical body from Xi Yangzi's mouth. It's just that at the beginning, Xi Yangzi once said that suppressing the Jiuli tribe was the mission of Yukun Palace for thousands of years, and he never let outsiders know. Although Xi Yangzi didn't tell him to keep the secret, he consciously hid it first.
Jin Yingzi continued: "Mu Shaoxia, I was in the restaurant just because I wanted to tell you that since our Jiuli tribe dug out the body of the god, we still need more than ten kinds of genius treasures to consolidate the body. , can we regain a new life and leave the extremely cold land to the other nine states. It just happened that Elder Guli came looking for me, and there was no time to finish. Unexpectedly, you actually guessed it."
Ba Zheng nodded and said: "It's best if you know. In fact, the method I mentioned is to defeat Chi You's physical body and seize the genius treasures in his body. In my opinion, these genius treasures can bring Chi You's physical body back to life. It should be easy to repair the meridians in Guo Qingshan's body."
"It must be easy." Mu Jingyu shouted: "Chi You is an ancient demon god. These genius treasures can even repair his body, let alone Uncle Guo! Moreover, I don't have to deal with the Jiuli tribe. Afterwards, I can think of a way to solve Uncle Guo’s matter, which really kills two birds with one stone.”
Unexpectedly, Guo Qingshan's matter could be solved so quickly, and it could be handled together with the Jiuli tribe's matter. Mu Jingyu's mood instantly relaxed a lot, and he no longer looked anxious when looking at Guo Qingshan.
However, Ba Zheng was not as relaxed as Mu Jingyu, and still said in a deep voice: "It's just that it is a difficult problem to solve Chi You and the Jiuli tribe."
Mu Jingyu was so busy thinking of ways to solve Guo Qingshan's problem that he even forgot about the real thing. After seeing Ba Zheng's sad face, I remembered that he came this time to find out the real plan of the Jiuli tribe.
"Senior Ba Zheng, I heard from Sister Jin that you went to inquire about the Jiuli tribe's plan yesterday. You should have gained something when you come back now."
"Yes." Ba Zheng nodded and said, "I do know the Jiuli tribe's true plan, but things are far more serious than you and I imagined!"
Mu Jingyu said: "Now that you know the real plan, are you still worried that you can't find a solution? Senior Ba Zheng, you'd better explain it in detail."
Ba Zheng hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Little friend Mu, before I tell you the detailed plan, I have to ask your forgiveness first."
Mu Jingyu was puzzled: "Senior, what are you talking about? You can ignore the danger and personally find out the Jiuli tribe's plan. Xingye came to tell this junior. Mu Jingyu is already grateful, how can he blame you? He’s old.”
"Hey, you don't know something." Ba Zheng sighed and said: "Actually, I have known for a long time that Elder Guli, the high priest, the holy aunt and others were planning to conspire to take advantage of the opportunity of the Jiuhua Sect to hold a conference on Taoism. Caught the entire righteous path in one fell swoop. Then kidnapped these disciples and drove them to extremely cold places to replenish spiritual energy for Chi You's body."
Mu Jingyu was extremely surprised and shouted unconsciously: "What! Did you know it a long time ago? Then why didn't you tell me in time when I arrived in Netherworld Ghost State? If I had known about this situation earlier, I could have known it in advance Inform all leaders to prevent today’s tragedy from happening!”
Mu Jingyu never expected that Ba Zheng would know this and hide it from him. Thinking of Guo Qingshan lying on the bed, thinking of Master Puru who protected his disciples from escaping even at the risk of death, and thinking of Qian Qian disciples being detained by the Jiuli tribe. Even if Ba Zheng asked him to forgive him in advance, Mu Jingyu couldn't let go for a while.
Although Jin Yingzi didn't understand Ba Zheng's intention, she still tried her best to persuade him: "Mu Shaoxia, don't blame Elder Ba Zheng. Maybe... maybe he has some hidden agenda or difficulties in doing this. For the sake of his old man, After something happened to you, for the sake of rushing to help with all his strength, you should forgive him first."
If you don’t forgive me, what else can you do? Mu Jingyu sat helplessly on the chair, smiled bitterly and said, "Senior, can you tell me why this is?"
Ba Zheng said coldly: "For revenge!"
"Revenge?" Mu Jingyu and Jin Yingzi said at the same time. Then the two looked at each other and understood what Ba Zheng meant by revenge.
Presumably, Ba Zheng himself or the people closest to him had been harmed by various sects of the righteous path during the Tiandao demon slaying thirty years ago. Therefore, they knew clearly that the Jiuli tribe wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop, but did not reveal it to Mu Jingyu and others in advance.
"It seems that senior was able to eliminate demons because of the Heavenly Way thirty years ago. Unexpectedly, it has been thirty years since this happened, and there are still many people who remember this matter." Mu Jingyu thought of Qingniu Grandpa, I thought of Mu Daocheng. They all lived in seclusion in the mountains because of the way of heaven to eliminate demons.
"Even if three hundred years have passed, I will never forget it!" Ba Zheng's eyes were stern, and the murderous look reappeared in his eyes.
Since Ba Zheng and Zhengdao have enmity, they have kept the matter a secret and are in the process of clearing it up. Since it was irreversible, and he took the initiative to ask for forgiveness, what else could he do?
However, he was still a little curious that Ba Zheng would suddenly change his attitude and come to save him personally. He immediately asked: "Senior, since you always want to use the help of the Jiuli tribe to get rid of the righteous sects. Why do you do this? Come here in person to help this junior?" At this point, Mu Jingyu suddenly thought of a possibility: "Is it... could it be because of Bi Yun?"
"Of course it's because of the little princess." Ba Zheng said: "Actually, I don't agree with Bi Yun's deep love for you. Firstly, it is because it will mess up her temperament. Secondly, it is because Your concern will make her make many wrong decisions. For the sake of Yaoming Palace, I actually don’t want to take too much action. There is still a thought in my heart that letting you die on the jade flute stage will completely destroy the little princess. Thinking about it is better than doing it myself."
Mu Jingyu said: "But...but I remember that half a year ago, you saved my life outside Zangfeng Youju! If you didn't want me to disturb Bi Yun's mind, why did you take action then? ?”
Ba Zheng chuckled and asked, "Little friend Mu, do you think I really wanted to save you back then?"
Ba Zheng's tone was calm, but it sent shivers down Mu Jingyu's spine! The scene at that time came to mind, and I suddenly realized that it was King Tiger that Ba Zheng wanted to save in the first place! And he just happened to be beside the Tiger King and was rescued together!
