Seeing Mu Jingyu's expression of being in pain but not daring to speak, Zhou Yan laughed loudly, and then led the three of them to sit in the vacant seats.
Looking around, I found that there were only four people here: Zhou Yan, Su Yingying, Shen Mengdie and Yu Yuanxiu. As for Ba Zheng and Shi Dahong mentioned in the letter, they were not here.
Before he could ask, Qin Yunchuan said first, "Senior Ba Zheng took Junior Brother Shi to the Zhuli tribe for surveillance. If anything happens, he will come and tell us."
"That's it." Mu Jingyu nodded, took the food handed over by Yu Yuanxiu, chewed it in his mouth, and couldn't help but praise: "Well, it is indeed delicious! It's been a long time since I tasted Brother Yu's cooking , much better than before."
"If it's delicious, eat more." Yu Yuanxiu was most proud of his cooking. After hearing Mu Jingyu's compliment, he stuffed the rest into his hands.
Seeing Mu Jingyu wolfing down the food made everyone laugh. Bi Yun quickly took out her handkerchief and helped him wipe the grease from the corners of his mouth: "Slow down, slow down, no one will compete with you."
Su Yingying, who was sitting with her head tilted, her eyes dimmed unconsciously. Although the two of them had made their relationship clear as early as in the clear water and clouds, she also let go of her knot. But seeing the loving look between Mu Jingyu and Bi Yun, I still couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"Yingying, you should eat too." Yu Yuanxiu, who was beside him, didn't notice anything unusual about Su Yingying. He kindly picked up the freshly baked food and put it in her hands.
"Thank you." Su Yingying was in a daze, wishing that the person beside her was Mu Jingyu. But...but the colorful butterfly wants to fall on the branch, but the branch is full of breeze.
Shen Mengdie on the right naturally knew what Su Yingying was thinking, and said softly: "Sister Su, Brother Yu is handing you something, please take it quickly."
This is a double entendre. It was clear that he was asking Su Yingying to take the things, but in fact he was hinting to her that you were in love, but he didn't mean to. It's better to cut off the feelings and accept Yu Yuanxiu's heart.
"Xiaodie reminded me in time. I was so happy to see Jingyu and Princess Bi Yun just now that I neglected Brother Yu." Su Yingying took the food and smiled at Yu Yuanxiu, who grinned and said, "It's okay." Out of the way.
Perhaps, among the people sitting here, he was the only one who still didn't know what Su Yingying was thinking, and he had been trying his best to please the goddess he admired. Even Bi Yun also learned about Su Yingying's intentions from the reason why Han Yao framed Mu Jingyu during this period of time.
At that moment, he held Mu Jingyu's hand tightly and said softly: "Sister Su, look at the delicacies on the campfire. Although the aroma is tempting, they are not ripe. If you bite it into your mouth, there is no taste except for it. Other feelings. It's not as good as...it's better than the delicious food in your hands, which makes people linger."
Su Yingying's palms were not trembling, so she would not be able to hear the hidden meaning of Bi Yun's words. After sighing softly, she smiled and said: "The little princess said it in time, it was because I didn't think well."
I just lamented in my heart: "If...if it weren't for your overripe delicacy, my delicacy on the campfire would have to be put in my mouth one day."
However, regret is regret. Su Yingying understood that a person's preferences are fixed. Even if Bi Yun hadn't met Mu Jingyu before her, she wouldn't have fallen in love with her.
The scene fell silent. Only Yu Yuanxiu couldn't see the situation in front of him. He kept asking everyone to eat quickly, and at the same time, his attitude towards Su Yingying became even more affectionate. Su Yingying seemed to have accepted her fate, and her attitude towards Yu Yuanxiu improved significantly.
After a while, most of the food baked by Yu Yuanxiu was eaten by several people. Mu Jingyu rubbed his bulging belly and said, "Brother Qin, what happened over there at Jin Yingzi. You just gave a general description in your letter. I’ve read it again, and I want to hear the specific story.”
"Well." Qin Yunchuan put down the food, sat up straight and said, "Originally, according to the arrangements of Senior Tai Er and others, we went to Netherworld Ghost State to meet up with Miss Jin and Senior Ba Zheng to see what they had here Progress. Who would have thought that just after we met, without even saying a few words, the technique would be discovered by people from the Jiuli tribe."
When they parted, Jin Yingzi and Ba Zheng did return to the Netherworld Ghost State and contacted those tribes in the Jiuli tribe who were unwilling to follow Chi You's body in advance.
Mu Jingyu asked: "What happened next? Was Jin Yingzi taken away? How is Senior Ba Zheng? Why isn't he with you?"
"The situation at that time was critical. Although we had Senior Ba Zheng, a man who knew the first realm of God, the enemy's reinforcements kept coming. We barely resisted for a while, but then we couldn't hold on. In the end, Miss Jin was unfortunately captured to cover us. , and Senior Ba Zheng left alone elsewhere in order to distract the pursuers. Only then did we take the opportunity to escape here and wait for your arrival."
Mu Jingyu asked: "You said in your letter that Senior Ba Zheng was also injured. I wonder what his condition is like? Where is he now?"
Zhou Yan continued: "Senior Ba Zheng's injury was not serious. After he got rid of the pursuers and joined us here, he recovered a long time ago under Yunchuan's treatment. No, he is just so agile. , regardless of our dissuasion, he took Junior Brother Shi to the Zhuli tribe for surveillance."
Sure enough. While Mu Jingyu was worried about Ba Zheng, he also realized that the situation on Jin Yingzi's side was definitely not as optimistic as what Qin Yunchuan said in his letter.
Mu Jingyu asked: "What is the situation of the Zhuli tribe now?"
"The situation is not good." Qin Yunchuan said worriedly: "Actually, we don't know that the Zhuli tribe has long been divided into two factions. One faction is headed by Miss Jin, who is fundamentally unwilling to follow Jiuli. The high priest and others of the tribe broke out of the Netherworld Ghost State against their ancestral precepts. However, most people, led by Elder Wuluo, believed that now was the best time and should not stay in the barren Netherworld Ghost State. This led to a Months ago, after learning that Miss Jin was secretly communicating with us, they suddenly imprisoned their people. According to previous inquiries, Wuluo was planning to hold a general meeting in the near future to behead the people on Miss Jin's side in public. So. , we don’t have much time left.”
Mu Jingyu did not expect that the situation would be worse than he expected. At the beginning, he promised the last high priest of the Zhuli tribe that he would find his people. But in the current situation, once Jin Yingzi is killed, the Zhuli tribe will be completely controlled by Elder Wuluo, and it is difficult to say whether it will survive or die in the future.
Whether he was grateful for the high priest's gift of the Jiuyao Xuanguang Chain, or he was worried about Jin Yingzi's help, Mu Jingyu would not let this happen.
"Do you know when Wuluo will take action?"
"It should be soon." Qin Yunchuan said after thinking for a while: "In the past few days, Wuluo has been sending tribesmen to invite those tribes who have contacted Miss Jin to come to the Zhuli tribe. It seems that they want to take advantage of the punishment. The tribesmen who killed Jin girl stopped their thoughts and fully supported Chi You's physical body."
"Have you summoned them all?" Mu Jingyu pondered for a moment and suddenly had an idea: "By the way, when you met Jin Yingzi, you didn't ask her about the opinions of these tribes? Are you willing to follow Chi You physically? Or don’t you want your tribe to fall into murderous intent?”
"Of course I don't want to get caught up in murderous intentions." Qin Yunchuan affirmed: "But if Miss Jin is killed, all the tribes will definitely be terrified. We have no one to contact them, and it will be even more difficult to persuade them. ”
Zhou Yan interrupted: "It's not just these two problems. I listen to Sister Jin. In fact, these tribes, like the Zhuli tribe, also have different opinions. Even if the tribe leader agrees, the elders or members of the tribe do not agree. If we agree, things like the Zhuli tribe will happen."
"Her words are enough." Mu Jingyu was full of confidence. He took Chi You's magic ax from his waist and said, "With this thing in hand, I can not only persuade all races, but also be sure to persuade others." Other races!”
The reason why he has this confidence is precisely because Chi You's spiritual consciousness is hidden in the magic axe. If he reappears in the world, are you still afraid that the Jiuli tribe will not listen to him?
"This is... Chi You's magic ax." Shen Mengdie took the magic ax out of curiosity, put it in his hand and examined it before saying, "But... but this magic ax belongs to Chi You, even if it is held by you. How can you make them obey orders in your hands? Don't forget, Chi You is the real demon god of the Jiuli tribe! There is no reason for them not to obey Chi You's body, but to obey your orders."
"Xiaodie, you don't know something about this." Mu Jingyu smiled mysteriously and said after seeing that everyone's curiosity was piqued: "Actually, everyone thought that the person suppressed here was the Demon Ax Spirit. Consciousness, in fact, what it really hides is Chi You’s spiritual consciousness.”
"What!" Several people exclaimed at the same time, including Bi Yun. They all looked at Mu Jingyu in disbelief, waiting for him to give everyone an explanation.
Regarding the fact that Chi You's spiritual consciousness was in the magic axe, he only told Bian, Zhu Yan, and the three heads of Qinglian. In order to prevent the secret from leaking, even Tai Er Zhenren and Qi Jue Scholar did not tell anyone.
However, that was because there were so many eyes and tongues in the Jade Kun Palace, and I was afraid of being overheard. But the people here are all people he trusts, so of course he can say it with confidence.
Immediately, he explained the whole story, and everyone was speechless. They didn't expect that there would be so many twists and turns in the process.
Finally, Mu Jingyu raised Chi You's magic ax and said, "Now you believe that I am sure to convince all tribes."
Qin Yunchuan disagreed, shook his head and said: "Jingyu, I wonder if you have considered the magic ax hidden in Chi You's body. The reason why you temporarily gave up on snatching your Jiuyao Xuanguang Chain and went to great lengths to sneak attack on the Jade Kun Palace is precisely Don’t you want the magic ax to fall into the hands of others? Not only do you want to enhance your own cultivation, but you also want to prevent this secret from being known to others.”
"Brother Qin, don't worry, I have thought of it a long time ago." Mu Jingyu said, "So, I don't plan to reveal this matter to everyone at the beginning. I will wait until I confirm what they really think." Tell me slowly."
"I'm relieved now." Qin Yunchuan said: "The next step depends on what news comes from Senior Ba Zheng. After all, Wu Luo and others should take action within the next few days. You are here just in time, so we can't delay it any longer. .”
"Tomorrow morning, whether Senior Ba Zheng comes back or not, we have to set off." Mu Jingyu stood up, looked at the vast night, and secretly made up his mind.
After everything was tidied up, everyone arranged the order for the vigil, and then returned to the simple tents they had set up to rest. Only Qin Yunchuan was left sitting cross-legged outside, monitoring the movements in the Kirigakure poisonous lake.
When it was late at night, Mu Jingyu was lying in the tent with his clothes on. The sound of people snoring could be heard in his ears. He was thinking about the situation at hand and couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
The Jiuli tribe seems to be in decline, but the righteous factions are not monolithic. Whether they can successfully hold back the Jiuli tribe in the far north is still unknown. It would be the most fatal if the four Wujixu factions took the opportunity to cause trouble or escaped from the battlefield.
There are also Jin Yingzi's Zhuli tribe, the leaders and disciples of various factions who were kidnapped. Their life and death only lasts a moment, and a moment's delay may cost them their lives.
Most importantly, there are those six mysterious men in black. What is their identity and what is their purpose? No clue at all.
All the above disturbed Mu Jingyu and he got up quietly in desperation and came to Qin Yunchuan's side.
Since childhood, Qin Yunchuan has not only been like an elder brother, but he has also been able to answer questions and answer questions for him. Since these things are never clear, it is better to discuss it with Qin Yunchuan, maybe there will be other discoveries.
