Chapter 261: Little Yiyi Is so Bad! (1)
After Rong Yi’s body had stayed in Rong Mansion for over half a month, Lei Sai quietly left the house without telling anyone, then, news came from Yin family in Dongtang Prefecture, Elder the Fourth and Elder the Seventh both got poisoned.
Even the level nine alchemist they invited couldn’t help with it. Even old Lady Yin who was regarded as G.o.ddess of elixirs could only control the spreading speed of the poison in their bodies.
Now Elder the Fourth and Elder the Seventh did not dare to use their spiritual powers, for fear that the poison would spread faster. But it didn’t mean that if they did not use their spiritual powers, the poison would not spread inside. If they could not find an antidote in half a year, they would die. So, the top priority was to find the one behind this, and forced that person to give them the antidote.
“It must have the young master.” Elder the Sixth said heavily, “Recently we seldom go out since Rong Yi that brat was buying our heads. So it’s impossible that they got poisoned outside. They found themselves poisoned in the mansion, so it should be the servants. The young master is really capable, having planted so many people by our side. Now he not only poisoned some of us, and also took the Lei Sai’s family away. Later, we have to replace all the personal servants!”
Lei Sai’s family was taken away, which meant that Yin Jinye already knew there was poison in the letter.
Elder the First agreed with what he said.
The other elders were silent. They had said early on that they would not take part in their affairs.
Seeing that other elders were so indifferent, Elder the First seemed calm, actually he already felt ticked off in the heart. Now Elder the Second and Elder the Third were entangled by things and could not make it to the elders’ hall, Elder the Fifth and Elder the Eighth were recuperating, and now Elder the Fourth and Elder the Seventh got poisoned, only he and Elder the Sixth were busy dealing with Rong Yi’s stuff.
Elder the Sixth asked, “Big brother, what shall we do next? Ask the young master for the antidote?”
Elder the Fifteenth said, “Now even the old lady can not save the two elders, if you do not ask the young master for the cure, they could only wait for their deaths.”
Elder the Sixth sulked, “I didn’t ask you, I do not need you to make a sound.”
“All right. I’ll shut my mouth. It isn’t me who would die, anyway, and I’ll keep my hands clean, lest someone may think I’m nosy.” Elder the Fifteenth stood up and said, “I am not needed here. I gotta go.”
Seeing that Elder the Fifteenth leaving, Elder the Ninth and others asked Elder the Sixteenth with their eyes what to do next.
Elder the Sixteenth wanted to say something, but on thinking that Elder the First and Elder the Sixth would not listen to him, he shook his head and left too.
The other elders also left.
Now only Elder the First and Elder the Sixth were left in the hall. Elder the Sixth said angrily, “They just fold their hands and watch them die!”
Elder the First frowned.
Elder the Sixth turned to him, “Big brother, do you think if the old lady did not do her best to save them in order to help her son?”
Elder the First shook his head. “The old lady does not joke about such things.”
Elder the Sixth wore a cold face. So do they really have to beg the young master?
They can’t pull the old face.
Later they sent someone to find a few quite famous alchemists to cure the two elders, but still could not remove the poison in their bodies.
Days had pa.s.sed, the toxin inside the two elders’ body was also increasingly growing, and the faces became more and more awful. Elder the First could only send someone to find Yin Jinye, but people of Rong mansion just shut them out, clearing implying that Yin Jinye wouldn’t give them the antidote if Elder the First did not come in person.
Soon it came to the end of February, and Elder the Fourth and Elder the Seventh were getting thinner and thinner. No longer regardless of their old face, Elder the First and Elder the Sixth went to Zhonghai Prefecture.
Originally they already felt losing face to beg a junior, and were chased by people all the way, making them very distressed. When they arrived at Rong Mansion of Haishan town, the two of them were in a total mess. Then, they got trapped by the Dragon-locking Formation inside.
Seeing that the two elders so embarra.s.sed, Rong Su, Rong Huan and others couldn’t help laughing. Anyway, they were trapped inside the formation and could not hear them. They planned to let them out after they had enough torturing.
Elder the Sixth had never been so humiliated. On seeing Rong Yi and others, he immediately got flared up, “So bold! How dare you get us trapped in the formation for so long? Do you still take us the elders in your eyes? Have you forgotten the rules of Yin family already since having stayed here for too long? If you forget it, I’ll let you remember it again today.”
Noticing Elder the Sixth was generating his spiritual power, Wen Chuan hurriedly said, “Elder the Sixth, the Lord said, if you take advantage of his absence to make trouble here or touch a finger of his people, the two elders would be dead for sure.”
Elder the First darkened his face. How dare the young lord threaten them?
“You… You…” Elder the Sixth was stuck in there, having no idea what to do next.
Elder the First asked Wen Chuan, “Do you mean your lod is not in the house?”
Wen Chuan answered honest, “Yes, the lord, young master Rong and the little masters are all not home.”
