"Really? You are posing a problem for me, asking me to kill Huo Linye. I haven't killed him yet, so why is he a member of the Wu clan? Or do you mean that I don't need to kill him now?" Yun Lingzheng's smile said, With an unpredictable chill.
Like a venomous snake, it might pounce and bite you in the next moment.
Chi Huai was stunned.
Even now, he was still being manipulated by Yun Lingzheng.
Turning his head, Chi Huai looked at Yun Si: "Princess Jinfu..."
"Call me a 'bitch' when you're okay, but when something happens, Princess Jinfu? High Priest, that's not what this person does. I also agree with Master Yun's human words, why should I let Nan Jiang treat you? If there is a need, she is a member of the Wu tribe. If there is no need, it makes no sense to kill her." There is no way Yun Si can undermine Yun Lingzheng at this time.
The two looked at each other and reached a consensus.
Chi Huai looked at the people who were leaving and immediately spoke: "I can take you to see the elders and the great wizard now. Call me Shang Nan Jiang. If you have any demands, you can tell us and we will discuss them there then."
-
The age of the eight elders could not be discerned, but all of them had disheveled hair and dark-colored clothes.
There was no excessive clothing, he was barefoot, and he was holding a cane in his hand. He looked like he had been passed down from generation to generation, and his quilt was smooth and oily.
When Yun Si and the others arrived, several people opened their eyes and looked at Nan Jiang.
There was a fire burning in the middle of this dark and unrelated place, and the white skulls of wild beasts were hung on the four walls. It looked mysterious, wild, and scary.
Yun Si looked back and heard the leading elder say: "Nan Jiang, come forward."
Nan Jiang didn't hesitate, but she was wearing clothes from the Central Plains, which was a bit out of place here.
She raised her hand and paid homage to several elders using the etiquette of the Wu tribe.
"You were originally a saint, but because of your mistakes, your identity as a saint is no longer there. But to make up for your mistakes, if you can save those people, we promise that this identity of the saint will always be yours. From now on, no matter whether you commit a crime Whatever mistakes you made, this credit can offset those mistakes. Your family will also be treated very well." The great elder spoke slowly.
Just as Nan Jiang was about to respond, she heard Yun Lingzheng behind her say: "The status of this saint is not a great gift. Is it possible that with the status of this saint, she can be nobler than the emperor? Elders are asking for help now. , it’s not a gift, don’t get me wrong.”
Hearing this, they all looked at Yun Lingzheng.
Yun Lingzheng's previous attitude was not like this.
Yun Lingzheng's attitude has changed since they assigned him tasks.
"Presumptuous!" the elder at the end shouted angrily. He looked like his hair was still black and he was younger than the others: "This is a matter for our clan. No matter how powerful you are outside, do as the Romans do. We are not here in Xizhou. It’s not Dazhou, and I can’t tolerate an outsider like you talking too much!”
"Nan Jiang is my unmarried wife. If my woman is manipulated by others outside, it means that I, as a husband, am incompetent. Today, if a few of you don't show your attitude and continue to be so condescending, then I will never do it. Allow Nan Jiang to contribute even a little bit to the Wu clan." Yun Lingzheng looked at Nan Jiang.
The great elder asked coldly: "Nan Jiang, do you want to listen to him?"
Nan Jiang was stunned and turned to look at Yun Lingzheng.
He suddenly became cold last night.
Now I'm defending her again.
This kind of coldness and hotness made Nan Jiang a little unpredictable.
Only when the great elder called her again did Nan Jiang react: "He is my husband-in-law, so naturally I have to listen to him."
"Bastard!" The Eighth Elder's crutch hit the ground heavily: "We have forgiven your sins, and now, do you still want us to beg you? Come on, arrest them all!"
The great wizard hurriedly stepped forward: "Now that the plague has begun, Nanjiang..."
"With how capable she is, are you sure that Nan Jiang can be cured? Besides, my Wu clan has hundreds of thousands of mountains to rely on. When this plague started, we also got through it. It was just a few more deaths. But it won't lead to the annihilation of the clan. Moreover, with the previous experience, we don't need to look at people's faces now!" The eighth elder said, glancing at Nan Jiang.
"I don't know what's wrong, pull it down!"
The great wizard looked at Yun Lingzheng anxiously: "Yesterday you said you wanted to join the Wu clan."
"Yesterday was yesterday, today...you assigned me a task and asked me to kill Huo Linye. I can't do it. Since I can't do it, I can only break up with you. Everyone makes things difficult for each other, and no one can do it. Well done." Yun Lingzheng looked like he was not afraid of anything.
He reached out and held Nan Jiang's slender wrist.
Nan Jiang is used to following the rules here. She has followed the rules for a long time. This is the first time she has the confidence to confront the elders.
You must know that the elders of the Wu clan have the power of life and death, no less than the emperors of the Central Plains.
But today, she suddenly felt that there was no harm in rebelling against old men like them!
Huo Linye watched everyone being locked in and couldn't help but smile: "I thought you could stay out for how long."
Yun Si took out the medicine box from nowhere and turned to ask Yun Lingzheng: "What's the disease? Do you have any clues?"
Nan Jiang was stunned: "Why ask him?"
Yun Lingzheng said: "Do you still remember the witch plague you told me about before? Tell her how to treat it and what the disease was. As for the cause, you don't have to worry about it now. I will tell her later. you."
"There was a plague in the Witch Clan, which almost destroyed the entire Witch Clan. Later, all those who were sick were burned to death, and no one who had any contact with them was spared. This way they were preserved."
Nan Jiang paused and said, "Fever, chest pain, coughing up blood, sputum, mainly cough."
When Yun Si heard this, she felt a bit like...tuberculosis?
"anything else?"
Nan Jiang thought for a while: "The face is cyanotic, and there is a whining sound in the chest when breathing. If you look more closely, I don't know."
After hearing this, Yun Si became even more sure.
This is a symptom unique to tuberculosis.
However, pulmonary nodules are caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. How could the second brother get it?
What is the relationship between him and the great wizard Xiao Ziyi captured?
And the war slaves seem to have something to do with the Wu clan.
"What are you going to say?" Huo Linye had a premonition that something was not good.
Yun Si turned around and said, "We must all be sick."
Huo Linye frowned: "Then you still let people lock us together?"
He is here alone and no one comes in. As long as no outsiders come, he will be fine.
Yun Si pursed her lips: "It's okay. They want to use you as a sacrifice anyway. Sooner or later, you will die, but the method is different."
