"Elder Bai, what are you doing? Just talk about it carefully. You can't sit down and talk slowly about anything." But Musen waved his hand and told him to sit down.
"Yes, Elder Bai, no matter what you have to say, sit down and let's talk it over. Don't be impatient." Charonton also waved his hand.
Bai Qianfeng looked at it and could only sit down, angrily picked up the teacup and drank.
Charonton and Kemusen didn't speak, and looked at Bai Qianfeng quietly.
"Elder, this matter can't always be so unresolved. There must be a conclusion about good and bad, right? According to the long-standing rules, Xiao Rui, as the successor, will naturally become a wizard after the wizard's death. Is this wrong? Yes, Xiao Rui Rui's level is not high yet, but he can learn! You can learn from the books, secrets, items, etc. left by the wizard." Bai Qianfeng calmed down and said.
"Elder Bai, think about it. A wizard is the spiritual symbol of a village. In addition to his superb Taoism and witchcraft, he also has indescribable personal charm. He is worshiped by most people, and he also has the greatest responsibility to maintain the village. What's the difference with Xiao Rui? Now even if Xiao Rui becomes a wizard, what will happen? Can her age, her witchcraft, and her Taoism maintain the responsibility of a wizard?" Kemusen said word for word.
"Can you break the rules in this way? Will you be able to break other rules at will in the future? In this case, where is the prestige of the elder?" Bai Qianfeng said tit for tat.
"Everything is not so rigid, and it is a last resort. Elder Bai, please tell me yourself, after Xiaorui became a wizard, how should he act at such a young age without anyone to guide him or help him? "Kemusen asked.
"She is a bit young, but she can learn. During this period, the elders can designate others to help her, so why not?" Bai Qianfeng said with narrowed eyes.
"Haha... Elder! I suggest that Elder Bai help Xiao Rui, what do you think? Elder Bai is her uncle and is familiar with her habits." Ke Musen said to the elder.
"This isn't appropriate! I'm his uncle. If I do this, won't I be criticized by others? It's impossible." When Bai Qianfeng heard that there was an opportunity, he was extremely ecstatic. On the surface, he was calm and refused.
"Haha... What are you afraid of by making irresponsible remarks? There is really no one else who is suitable. As the deputy elder and auxiliary wizard, this one is just right. And he is also her uncle, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? Elder, don't you think so?" Ke Musenmi He stared at Charonton.
Charonton smiled and said nothing, and looked at Bai Qianfeng instead.
"Uh...is this...not good?" Bai Qianfeng calmed down and looked at the elder and deputy elder in confusion, not knowing what they meant. So he didn't dare to answer rashly and dealt with it ambiguously. If you take the right step, the sky will be vast, if you take the wrong step, the abyss will be vast.
"Elder Bai, Elder Ke, what do you think of the wizard's death?" Charonton suddenly spoke.
"The wizard is deeply respected in our village. It is a pity that he died unexpectedly!" Bai Qianfeng frowned and sighed.
"I don't think the wizard's death was an accident!" Ke Musen looked at Bai Qianfeng and said.
"But why did the elder say this?" Charonton looked at Kemusen and asked.
"A wizard of that level died unexpectedly? Elder, do you believe it? Elder Bai, do you believe it?" Ke Musen asked with a smile.
"The three of us have seen this with our own eyes. Why don't we believe it?" Bai Qianfeng curled his lips and said.
"We only see the surface, there must be something wrong here! Elder, this matter must be investigated thoroughly!" Kemusen said seriously.
"Elder Bai, do you agree to a thorough investigation?" Chalondon looked at Bai Qianfeng.
"Of course I...agree! But where to start checking?" Bai Qianfeng thought doubtfully.
"Haha, a master is here to help us this time." Charonton said slowly.
"Oh? Who is it?" Bai Qianfeng took a sip of tea.
"I don't know her name either. I just know that she is very powerful, and she is also proficient in witchcraft and has great skills. Since we can't find out by ourselves, let's let people outside the village do it. The authorities are confused, but bystanders know clearly." Long Dun smiled.
"Okay, okay, I hope that expert can find out." Ke Musen clapped his hands.
"Haha, that's good, we'll see." Bai Qianfeng also chuckled.
"But..." Bai Qianfeng continued: "It will take some time, right? What if this is never found out?"
"Seven days! If there is no result after seven days, let Xiao Rui become a wizard!" Charonton was very straightforward.
But Musen looked at him, a little shocked at the time agreed upon. They themselves have had no results for many days, so now they give them seven days? He couldn't help but sweat.
After the two deputy elders left, Ying Kongxiu emerged from behind and said with a sinister smile: "Why do you call me an expert, elder? What if I can't find out? Seven days? Haha."
Charonton smiled bitterly and said: "I have been checking for many days with no results, and I am helpless, but I know that the wizard must have been killed! So this is the only way I can do it now."
"What if we can't find out?" Ying Kongxiu shook his head.
"Actually, the seven days I mentioned are just a delaying measure." Charonton smiled.
"Oh? A delaying strategy?" Ying Kongxiu was puzzled.
"Now we have reached an imminent moment. They suddenly dispersed today. They must have received instructions. I suspect it has something to do with you, haha! I estimate that their patience will not last long. Seven days is the limit, so I can only use a delaying strategy. Yes." Charonton took a sip of tea.
"What good advice does the elder have?" Ying Kongxiu seemed to see hope.
Charonton approached Ying Kongxiu and whispered for a long time. Ying Kongxiu nodded repeatedly.
"Let's go, I'll take you out." Charonton stood up.
The two people came outside the house, but Musen was waiting below the attic. When he saw them coming out, he blinked in confusion.
"But elder, send this friend to the attic by the river." Charonton said seriously.
When people from several villages outside saw a stranger, they were all surprised and looked at him blankly.
Ying Kongxiu had already covered her face with a mask, even her eyes, but this did not affect her sight.
But Musen stared blankly, blinked without saying anything, and led Ying Kongxiu to the attic.
"Uh..." But just as Musen was about to say something, Ying Kongxiu waved her hand and entered the room.
Soon, two guards came and stood at the door.
After a while, Ying Kongxiu, dressed in black, walked out, still wearing a mask on his face.
She walked straight to the wizard's residence, followed by a bunch of people watching the fun, each with their own agenda.
Entering the courtyard, the crowd of spectators was blocked by guards, and Ying Kongxiu walked in alone.
After entering the house, the furnishings were still the same. There were many bottles and cans, which were similar to those in the room of the Xingmanling wizard in the Red Bamboo Village. It seemed that the wizards all had these things.
As the successor of the wizard, Ying Kongxiu is very familiar with these things. She searched carefully but found nothing unusual, which made her frown.
The smell here is so messy that I can't tell where it comes from. It seems that many people came after the wizard died suddenly.
She pinched a witchcraft finger to create a light. The white light immediately turned into a mist, searching every corner of the room.
Soon, Ying Kongxiu detected traces of Gu magic. Unfortunately, this doesn't mean anything. The wizard himself can also use voodoo, and there is no evidence that the traces of voodoo are external.
The poison itself is man-made to control poisonous insects and a small amount of plants. "Earth Xuan Ling Gu" clearly states: Xuan Gu's gas substances are headed by poisonous feet, and the essence of the earth's surface is based on heat and dampness.
In the Miao border area, people who use poison are not uncommon. There are various poisons and techniques, but everything is based on the essence of the earth. Unlike spiritual practice, everyone has a different breath, which is never repeated. Although sometimes it is very close, an expert can easily distinguish it.
Gu magic is different, no matter the level, the aura is the same. Unless you experience it on the spot, you cannot find the person from the remaining aura.
Ying Kongxiu searched for a long time but couldn't find anything valuable, so he sighed helplessly.
She walked out of the house, and the spectators were still waiting outside the courtyard wall, but Deputy Elder Musen was also there.
After Ying Kongxiu left the compound, Ke Musen stepped forward and asked, "Are there any clues?"
"Haha...yes!" Ying Kongxiu said happily.
"Ah? Okay, okay! Please go back and rest!" Ke Musen was very excited and led her back to the attic.
"I'll report to the elder right now!" Ke Musen trotted away.
It was already late at night, and everyone had fallen asleep. The village is very quiet, with only various nocturnal insects chirping, seeming to remind others that the night world belongs to them.
The two guards outside the attic were very dedicated and patrolled back and forth around the attic without a trace of sleepiness.
Ying Kongxiu sat meditating in the center of the room, closing his eyes and cultivating himself.
Mosquitoes are very active on sultry nights.
Although they were smeared with insect repellent, the two guards were still attacked by various attacks. They kept waving their hands to drive them away, and they were unbearable.
After killing a few mosquitoes around his neck, a guard cursed and frowned. Suddenly, he felt a little sleepy. He opened his eyes but became more and more sleepy.
He snuggled up against the tree, yawned, and fell asleep.
Another guard wanted to go over and ask about the situation, but he was too sleepy to stand and fell to the ground and fell asleep.
A black figure emerged from the darkness and quietly approached the outside of the attic.
Ying Kongxiu didn't notice it and was still meditating.
The shadow took out a box from his arms and opened it gently. Inside were two thin bugs.
After chanting a few words, the insect shook, spread its wings and flew out.
After spinning a few times in the air, two bugs got in through the gap in the attic.
