The night is as dark as ink, and dark clouds cover the moon.

As soon as Gu Xuan walked to the door of Shuxiangyuan, a depressing atmosphere hit his face, as if on the eve of a storm.

His steps paused slightly, and he straightened the ape corpse on his shoulders. Gu Xuan took a deep breath and strode into the courtyard.

The surrounding lights flickered, illuminating the courtyard.

Seven servants stood neatly in the courtyard, and four servants sat on stone chairs, all with solemn expressions.

Seeing Gu Xuan's proud figure, they greeted each other one after another, their expressions still respectful, but the atmosphere was quite dull.

"The sky has not fallen, the earth has not sunk, let alone this young master here."

Gu Xuan put down the ape corpse, walking steadily, and Shi Shiran sat on the stone chair.

"Chu Ke quickly go and make tea. Chu Lian will tell you everything in detail. Don't miss anything."

"At noon, Erluzi brought back a bag of herbal tea from the market. After drinking it, we all fell into coma for half an hour before we woke up."

Looking at Gu Xuan's figure as calm as a mountain, Chu Lian spoke eloquently, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.

"The fool did not run away. After questioning him, he only said that he was bewitched by others and felt guilty. He still refused to say it clearly and wanted to make a statement to the young master face to face."

Gu Xuan didn't see Er Lengzi, so he guessed that the matter was related to him, and asked expressionlessly: "Where is he?"

"He has been hanging in the woodshed and he has not been fed at night."

"Bring the idiot here."

"I go."

Xun Xi's eyes flashed coldly as he strode towards the woodshed in the corner.

The second idiot was quickly brought in. He was tied up, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He had obviously received a good beating.

"Master, I am guilty!"

The second idiot knelt down directly, his face full of guilt and his eyes filled with tears.

"Put away your hypocritical tears and stop acting in front of me. If your words are meaningful, you will be punished less."

Gu Xuan's voice was low, and he took out a willow-leaf dart from the pocket at his waist. With a move of his wrist, the willow-leaf dart shot out and nailed into the rockery stone.

When the seven servants saw this, they were all worried. Although they were not accomplices, they were afraid of being implicated.

The Erluzi's heart skipped a beat, his upper body bent down, his forehead touched the ground, and he quickly confessed: "I was bribed by someone to look for a five-color elixir in the courtyard, but I couldn't find it, so I couldn't make a deal. I made a big mistake, and I didn't dare to

I don’t expect forgiveness, I just ask the young master to be given a gentle sentence.”

The voice stopped suddenly, but the explanation was clear. Chu Lian added: "The second fool has three gold leaves on his body."

"five

Color elixir..."

Gu Xuan murmured, his eyes narrowed, thoughtfully.

"The five-color elixir must be the spirit-summoning elixir." Wang Mang analyzed, "The person who instigated Er Lengzi is obvious and must be related to Ximen Hao."

"The five-color elixir should be a spirit-summoning pill." Gu Xuan pretended to frown, "But how can I, the young master, have a spirit-summoning pill? What is the other party's purpose?"

Erluzi didn't move at all, didn't dare to breathe, and only secretly pricked up his ears.

"Whether you have found the Spirit Summoning Pill or not, you should fly far away. However, you stayed behind on your own initiative. It must be the order of the master's envoy. It is intended to test your reaction and determine the whereabouts of the Spirit Summoning Pill."

Combined with Zheng Tai's actions of fainting himself, Gu Xuan agreed with Wang Mang's conclusion and suddenly slapped the table.

There was a snap.

Several servants were startled, and the second idiot was even trembling.

Gu Xuan shouted loudly: "You Ximen Qi, you have gone too far to bully others, I will never be done with you!"

After taking a few deep breaths, Gu Xuancai ordered in a cold voice: "Xunxi, pick a fool and drive him out of Ximen Villa!"

"yes!"

Xun Xi drew out his sharp sword, swung it twice, and cut off the tendon of Er Lengzi's hand.

"ah!"

The idiot didn't try to resist, he just accepted his fate and let out two screams in succession, his eyes filled with resentment.

Xun Xi stood with his sword in hand and shouted coldly: "Get out!"

The two idiots staggered away, looking embarrassed, leaving two lines of blood along the way.

Gu Xuan waved, and when Xun Xi came closer, he gave instructions in a low voice.

"Follow him and see what he does."

“Should we eradicate the root cause?”

"It's not necessary, it's just a pawn, there's a big fish behind it."

"clear."

Xunxi took the order and left.

The seven servants thought that Xun Xi was going to kill the two idiots, so they all knelt on the ground, looking terrified.

Gu Xuan said coldly: "I think I have treated you well, so I will kill you today to serve as a warning to others!"

"Yes, Master."

The seven servants responded respectfully and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Xuan then changed his face and said with a smile: "I have gone to the hunting ground for a trial. I have gained a lot. This ape corpse is the prey. Pumpkin C will be carried to the kitchen and will be slaughtered tomorrow. Aunt Liu will have to work harder to do it." Bring out two tables of delicacies and try them together."

The chilling atmosphere suddenly dissipated. Pumpkin C carried the ape corpse to the kitchen, while other servants

Resign.

Chu Ke carefully poured a cup of spiritual tea and glanced at Gu Xuan secretly: "Master, please drink tea."

Gu Xuan took a sip of spiritual tea: "Did I scare you just now?"

"Yeah." Chu Ke nodded seriously, "The young master was so scary just now, and he was also very imposing."

Xun Dong echoed: "The young master has never been so cold before."

"There would never have been such dirty things before." Gu Xuan sighed lightly, "If it were like it was in the past, it would be like digging your own grave. I have self-awareness, but I will not accept my fate. So what if I practice again? Sooner or later I will be proud of the world."

The words were plausible and very pleasing to the heart. Chu Ke's eyes were full of little stars: "This slave is proud of the young master."

Chu Lian asked: "Master, the envoy..."

"I know something about it." Regarding the Spirit Summoning Pill, Gu Xuan didn't want to reveal too much, "Xundong and Chu Ke will dispose of the ape corpse, and Ximen Fei and Ximen Xiang will send people to send meat over in exchange for half of the ape meat. Chu Lian is ready Medicinal soup, after a long afternoon of tossing, I have to take a bath."

They walked into the kitchen together. Under the surprised gaze of the servant, Gu Xuan took out the bloody Yinliu Sword from the mouth of the ape corpse and cleaned it with water.

With a slight shake, there was a crash, and the Yinliu Sword did not leave a drop of water stain.

Chu Ke and Xun Dong were busy working on the ape corpse outside. While Chu Lian was boiling water, Gu Xuan took out a green fruit and gave it to her.

"This fruit is unknown. It is a gift from the old ape at the hunting ground. It is just one for you to try."

Chu Lian took the fruit, her eyes became more brilliant, and she took a bite without cleaning it with a smile.

The sour, sour, and sweaty smells were mixed together, and the taste was really not good, but Chu Lian found it sweet.

After hiding the Yinliu Sword in the bedroom, Gu Xuan went to the study, took out two books, opened a few pages in each, and found that the Spirit Summoning Pill and the Violent Blood Pill were still there.

After putting away the books, Gu Xuan took out the brocade bag: "Senior, it's time to speak."

"You kid, don't be too imaginative. This is just an ordinary bag, not enough to have writing inside."

"Um?"

Gu Xuan opened the brocade bag and took a closer look at the lamp. Sure enough, he saw many light yellow writings inside the brocade bag.

Because the fabric was golden, you wouldn't be able to spot it if you didn't look closely, so Li Xing didn't care at all.

Gu Xuan's face showed joy, he quickly took out the noose, took the scissors, and slowly cut open the brocade bag along one side.

The brocade bag turned into a square brocade cloth and was spread flat on the table.
