"You!" Ren Yingying shook her head and took the medicine bottle from Lan Fenghuang's hand.
"After losing the gold and silver elders this time, your position in your sect is already very passive. If you are targeted by people from the Six Gates again, those people will not know how to cause trouble for you."
Ren Yingying said with concern, although Lan Fenghuang appeared to be the leader of a sect and was majestic, but in fact, her situation in the Five Poison Sect was not very good.
There are too many tributary members of the Five Poison Sect who are senior and disobedient to discipline.
Although these people are nominally members of the Five Poison Sect, they are actually not under the control of the Five Poison Sect. They mostly only follow the orders of their masters, and their masters give Lan Phoenix a headache.
Especially now that the two elders, Jin and Yin, who had always supported her, are dead, which further weakens Lan Fenghuang's voice in the Five Poison Sect.
"Just look for it. At worst, I won't be the leader anymore. Whoever wants to be the leader can be the leader. Anyway, I didn't want to be the leader for a long time."
Hearing Ren Yingying's words, Lan Fenghuang retorted in a low voice. To be honest, if the position of leader was not chosen by the previous leader, she would not want to be a leader given her personality.
How wonderful it is to be a carefree ordinary person, not having to worry about so many worrying things at all, and facing so many worrying people, you can go wherever you want to play, unlike now.
As she spoke, Lan Fenghuang seemed to have thought of something interesting, and she said to Ren Yingying with a smile:
"Hehe, Saint Aunt, how about I join your Sun Moon God Sect when the time comes? I will be your deputy, and then the two of us will travel together in the world."
Seeing Lan Fenghuang's smiling look, Ren Yingying shook her head helplessly.
Lan Fenghuang's scheming was too shallow. Even though he was slightly older than her, he was as innocent as a naughty little girl. How could he not be the leader of the cult just because he didn't want to be?
And even if you really don’t want to be, will others really let you go? Human heart? Suspicion? Liquidation?
Ren Yingying shook her head. She had seen too many of these in Heimuya, but she didn't say anything more. Sometimes she really envied Lan Fenghuang and how she wished she could be like her, so innocent and happy. alive.
But unfortunately, this is impossible. Sometimes someone always needs to carry something. Her days of comfortable seclusion are over.
Ren Yingying stood up firmly and picked up the sword. Lan Fenghuang also wanted to stand up, but was held down by her.
"You are not allowed to go." Ren Yingying said seriously.
"." Lan Fenghuang said with a sad face.
"Holy Aunt, just let me follow you. I can help you, and you're not familiar with those poisons yet. What if you accidentally hurt yourself? It's better if I follow you, so you don't have to worry." Lan Fenghuang begged to please. .
However, Ren Yingying still kept her cold and pretty face.
"Okay, why don't you go if you don't want to go? Then, Holy Aunt, please be careful." Lan Fenghuang said depressedly, and then she turned around and went back to her room.
With a "pop!" sound, the bamboo door was closed heavily. This loud sound clearly expressed the dissatisfaction of the person who closed the door.
Feeling Lan Fenghuang's child-like expression, Ren Yingying shook her head helplessly.
"Aunt, actually..." Looking at Ren Yingying who was shaking her head, Luzhu Weng, who had been watching outside the house, couldn't help but said, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ren Yingying.
"Don't worry, she's not angry, she's just pretending to show it to me. Please help me keep an eye on her later. I don't want to involve her in this matter."
"..." Green Bamboo Man, who didn't expect Ren Yingying to see so clearly, was stunned for a moment, but then he leaned over and responded.
"Yes, aunt."
"Aunt, what is my nephew's mission..." Green Bamboo Man asked curiously.
Hearing what Green Bamboo Man said, Ren Yingying's cold face showed a rare touch of warmth.
"Your mission? You have been with me since you were seven years old. From Heimu Cliff to Green Bamboo Lane, you have never left me. Now I am eighteen, so it has been eleven years. These eleven years Thank you for taking care of me over the years. Now that I have grown up, you don’t have to accompany me this time. Just live your own life here and don’t step into the world again."
With that said, Ren Yingying tapped her toes and flew directly into the bamboo forest.
Looking at Ren Yingying's leaving figure, Green Bamboo Man stretched out his hand to say something, but he didn't say anything. His old hand stopped in mid-air, with reluctance and relief in his eyes. A crystal-like crystal fell from his eyes. The wrinkled cheeks slid down.
. . .
At night, the city of Luoyang is particularly uneasy today. Before the first three o'clock, the dusk drums are beating early, the city gates are closed early, and teams of government officials on the streets are driving back and forth to drive away the crowds and merchants. In less than a while, Suddenly, the Luoyang Night Market, which should have been bustling with people in the past, became deserted.
Even the brothels and taverns were forced to close early for rest.
However, unlike other houses in the city that turned off their lights and went into hibernation, the Xu Mansion in the north of Luoyang City was brightly lit and people were coming and going.
Outside the Xu Mansion, there was a sentry every ten steps and a post every five steps. Everyone held a torch, illuminating the night as brightly as day. Teams held torches, and heavily armed guards patrolled back and forth from time to time.
In the Xu Mansion, each intersection was guarded by a policeman with a knife. Even the servants in the mansion did not dare to move around when they saw this scene. Except for those who stayed in the hall to serve, most of the others returned to their respective rooms early. rest.
Outside the side door of Xu Mansion, a group of armed guards walked past with a smile. They also joked a few words with their companions standing guard at the door, but none of them noticed that at the moment they were chatting, a black figure appeared in the sky. Flash past.
"This discipline is worthy of being called an army, and the guards are useless." The man in black glanced at the guards under the wall, shook his head helplessly, and left.
In a side courtyard of Xu Mansion.
"How's it going? Have you checked everything out?"
"Aunt Qi, we have investigated everything clearly." A person dressed as a housekeeper quickly knelt down on one knee.
"These are the locations that are heavily guarded in the mansion tonight. Magistrate Xu and the experts he invited are here. The surrounding arteries are guarded by agents from six doors. If nothing else happens, the thing should be there. There."
"Yes." Ren Yingying looked at the map the other party had just presented and nodded, but then she frowned again.
"Which of these places did you mark with a cross?"
"To the Holy Aunt, these places are very suspicious. Even the small ones can't get in, so I put a cross on them. I hope the Holy Aunt can forgive me."
