"Young City Master's words offend me." Ye Zhizhi sighed and said to Wu Yu in front of him, "Young City Master's hospitality is really impeccable. It's just that my junior brother and I have important responsibilities as teachers. How can we I can stay here leisurely and contentedly, but if the news gets back to the sect, the two of us will be guilty of dereliction of duty."
"This is not something I thought carefully." Wu Yu repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay, but seeing Ye Zhizhi's resolute attitude, he had no choice but to give up.
Ye Zhizhi and Han Jingzhu left the city lord's mansion smoothly.
On the way to Tianwen Sect's branch in Qin'an City, Han Jingzhu sent a message to Ye Zhizhi, "Is the city lord really sick?"
He thought this was very strange. How could the city lord be so ill that he was bedridden, unable to speak or move his hands? But based on what he had seen with his own eyes, it seemed that the city lord was suffering from a strange disease. Han Jingzhu was very confused about this, so he asked Ye Zhizhi.
"It is true that he is sick." Ye Zhizhi said back to him via voice transmission, "But the disease probably comes from humans."
Han Jingzhu frowned when he heard this, "What do you mean?"
"Junior brother, have you ever heard of the poisonous poison in southern Xinjiang?" Ye Zhizhi said.
"Do you mean..." Han Jingzhu was surprised and unsure.
"Yes, the city lord has been poisoned by someone." Ye Zhizhi confirmed his inner guess, "The strong and disgusting aroma we smelled when we entered the house was to cover up the poison on the city lord. That The aroma can be used to temporarily put the Gu insects into dormancy."
"Wu Yu did it?" Han Jingzhu couldn't help but be angry, "What a beast, how could he do such a cruel thing to his father!"
But at the same time, he wondered, "How did you find out?"
Of course it’s because I have spoilers for Kunlun Mirror!
Ye Zhizhi thought in her heart, but she couldn't tell Han Jingzhu this kind of truth, so she told the reason she had thought about for a long time, "I once met the Gu Master in Southern Xinjiang before, and I almost fell into trouble, so Later, I took advantage of the poison in Southern Xinjiang to prevent me from being fooled again."
Hearing this, Han Jingzhu showed a sympathetic expression towards her. How unlucky it must be to meet a Gu Master in Southern Xinjiang. Southern Xinjiang has always been an exclusive and closed place. Most of the Gu Masters in Southern Xinjiang were born and died in this land. , and will never leave southern Xinjiang throughout his life.
But there are always some exceptions that are rebellious and want to see the outside world.
It is precisely because of this that the evil reputation of the Gu Master in Southern Xinjiang spread.
"It's really not easy for you to survive the encounter with the Southern Xinjiang Gu Master intact." Han Jingzhu said with emotion.
Ye Zhizhi just smiled and said nothing.
She did know a Gu Master in Southern Border, but she didn't meet him in the Dao Realm, but in the Demon Realm, a cruel poisonous master with a dark heart. Don't get me wrong, Ye Zhizhi didn't take the initiative to recruit her this time. After all, she didn't recruit everyone. The evil reputation of the southern border Gu master spread throughout the cultivation world, and both good and evil were afraid of him. Unconsciously, it is impossible to guard against it.
Ye Zhizhi didn't want to challenge a difficult and dangerous person, such a dangerous subordinate who might poison his boss at any time, so he might as well forget it. But the other party took the initiative to find Ye Zhizhi. After pondering for a long time, Ye Zhizhi decided to join him, and the two of them had a big fight.
For now, they can be regarded as allies on the same boat. If the boat capsizes, Ye Zhizhi may not be in trouble, but he will definitely die.
"What should we do now when Huitianwen Sect Branch Hall is in charge?" Han Jingzhu asked.
"Confirm some things." Ye Zhizhi said.
Hearing this, Han Jingzhu didn't ask any more questions.
******
Tianwen Sect branch.
The Tianwen Sect monk stationed at the gate saw Ye Zhizhi and Han Jingzhu walking in front of him from a distance. He immediately turned around and went in to report. After a while, Zhang Yan got the news and came out to greet them.
"Two real people, why are you back again?" Zhang Yan said to Ye Zhizhi and Han Jingzhu.
Ye Zhizhi looked at him and said amusedly, "What you said makes me almost confused whether the City Lord's Mansion is my home or the Tianwen Sect is my home."
Zhang Yan's expression suddenly became grim, "I made a mistake."
"I wonder if the two masters have any advice when they come back this time?" He asked immediately.
"I can't talk about advice. It's just that we can't live in the City Lord's Mansion all the time. After a long time, people who don't know about it still think that we are from the City Lord's Mansion. It will have a bad influence if word spreads." Ye Zhizhi said.
Zhang Yan showed an understanding look, "I understand, I understand!"
As the Young City Lord of Qin'an City, Wu Yu may not understand Ye Zhizhi's concerns, but Zhang Yan, who also comes from Tianwen Sect, understands very well that the most taboo thing for disciples of large sects like them is to get too close to other forces. Recently, especially Ye Zhizhi and the others were an investigation team from our sect, and they must not be accused of colluding with local forces.
After understanding this, Zhang Yan's face relaxed. He secretly thought that Ye Zhizhi and Han Jingzhu had been gathered by Wu Yu. They stayed in the city lord's mansion for several days. If there was nothing fishy in this, No one believed it, so they were not as wary as when they first arrived.
"The two masters are coming with me. Their residences have been arranged for a long time." Zhang Yan led the two of them into the branch hall.
Ye Zhizhi and Han Jingzhu followed him in.
After passing through the front hall and arriving at the rear courtyard, Zhang Yan led them into a quiet and elegant small courtyard, "I have to feel sorry for the two of them to stay here for the time being."
"The scenery is nice." Ye Zhizhi glanced at the yard and said.
Zhang Yan laughed and said, "If nothing happens, I will say goodbye and leave. If anything happens, you can call me at any time."
"Go, go!" Ye Zhizhi said to him.
Zhang Yan turned and left.
After he left, Ye Zhizhi said to Han Jingzhu beside him, "Let's go find out some news!"
Han Jingzhu raised his eyes to look at her and followed her without saying a word.
"How to find out the news?" Han Jingzhu asked curiously, "Do I need to prepare anything?"
"No need to go to so much trouble, just ask someone directly." Ye Zhizhi said.
"?" Han Jingzhu.
Then, he saw Ye Zhizhi randomly catching a disciple of the Tianwen Sect branch on the street and asked, "What do you think of Master Mu Yun?"
The disciple of the Tianwen Sect branch who was caught by her for questioning was immediately stunned, with a strange and subtle look on his face. He looked at her and said uncertainly: "Master, the Master Mu Yun you are talking about is, I know. Is that real Mu Yun?"
"Is it possible that there is a second real Mu Yun here?" Ye Zhizhi asked curiously.
"...Zhenren Mu has died. Why do you ask this, Zhenren?" the disciple asked strangely.
Ye Zhizhi sighed and said, "It is precisely because of this that I have asked this question. Mu Yun has served our sect conscientiously and devotedly for many years. Now that he has died, no one knows about his life. It is really a pity." ! I have asked many questions and want to write a memorial for him in memory of him."
Hearing this, the disciple's face suddenly showed a look of emotion.
Even Han Jingzhu on the side looked at her in surprise, unable to tell for a moment whether this was a stratagem or what she really felt.
