A rare opportunity
Chapter 34 Cross-examination
"Qiyun Sect?"
When Li Yu heard this, he couldn't help but scream loudly!
Hearing the words "Qiyun Sect", Li Yu finally felt relieved! It seemed that the old man did not lie to him. You know, Ma Ji and others often muttered, and Li Yu would inevitably hear some of them. He knew that they were all waiting for the people from the sect to rescue them. So now it means that the people from the Qiyun Sect not only rescued Ma Ji and others, but also rescued himself!
Even though it was just a side job, he saved me after all. I should thank him. He knelt on the ground again and said:
"I, Li Yu, thank you for saving my life, Great Elder!"
In fact, he didn't know who this great elder was. Since this old man called himself the great elder, he must be extraordinary!
The elder looked down at Li Yu and asked:
"Why? Do you know Qiyun Sect?"
"I know, of course I know! Aren't Ma Ji and his men from your Qiyun Sect? Where are they? How are they doing?"
Li Yu raised his head and asked anxiously. Although Ma Ji and others hated Li Yu to the core, Li Yu did not realize it, and instead felt somewhat close to them.
After all, they never bullied him again, and they lived together for a long time. In Li Yu's opinion, as long as they don't bully him, they are good people!
When the elder heard that Li Yu was so concerned about Ma Ji and others, his previous suspicions were somewhat relieved! But after all, he was an old man in the world, so how could he easily relax his suspicions?
All four Qiyun Sect disciples except Ma Ji were killed, and Ma Ji became a stupid fool! This kid didn't seem to be hurt except for some red spots on his skin, which made them doubt Li Yu's identity.
The elder stared at Li Yu intently and said in a deep voice:
"Except Ma Ji, everyone else was poisoned to death!"
When Li Yu heard this, he couldn't help but let out a scream!
"what?"
His face was filled with horror, he was stunned and in disbelief! He was the first person to try the drug and the first person to have an attack. Therefore, he had no idea what happened next!
He originally thought that as a mortal, he could endure such pain, and that Ma Ji and the others, who were all cultivators, should be fine too. He didn't expect that they all died!
The Great Elder saw that his expression of shock did not seem fake, and could not help but ask with some doubt:
"Don't you know?"
Li Yu shook his head blankly and said sadly:
"Alas! I was the first one to drink their medicine, and I fainted from the pain until now. I didn't even know whether they drank the medicine or not! Alas! I didn't expect them to..."
He was choked up as he spoke.
Although Li Yu lacked sufficient knowledge of the world and was like an idiot about some things, he was not a fool! He seemed to feel a hint of distrust and even suspicion from the attitude and words of the great elder, so he did not tell the truth.
He knew that Ma Ji and the others were forced to drink poison. But if he said it, he would not be able to explain why they died instead of him! With such vague words, they might have died from poison or other reasons.
The elder stared at Li Yu's eyes. He could see that although Li Yu's eyes were evasive, it was not because he was guilty but because he was afraid! He was afraid of his sharp eyes!
Under the gaze of the great elder, Li Yu seemed to feel that the eyes could penetrate his heart and spy on his sea of consciousness. He was like standing naked in front of him, and no secrets could escape his prying! He couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and even had an urge to tell all the secrets hidden in his heart!
Just when Li Yu was about to collapse, the elder finally spoke and asked:
"Who are you? Where is your home? Who else is there in your family? How did you get to Blind Mountain?"
Although the voice was cold, Li Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard it! He quickly replied:
"I am Li Yu, my family lives in Yangjiazhuang, next to a river called Nuhe. My mother died when I was born, and my father also died when I was ten years old..."
So he recounted in detail how he usually made a living by begging, how he was framed by his fellow villagers as a thief and beaten half to death that day, how he fell into the river and met a tiger, how he was rescued by the tiger and entered the stone chamber, and how the three ghosts chased the tiger and discovered him and the stone chamber, and how Ma Ji and others appeared and were captured by the three ghosts.
As for the key points, such as the vest, the powder box, and the jade bee, he did not mention them. As for the honey, he only said that he found some in the water bag and swallowed it as food. He did not intentionally conceal the Soul Sword, but he himself had forgotten it!
The elder saw that he spoke fluently without any obstruction, and knew that he was either well prepared or telling the truth. As for whether it was true or not, it was not difficult to verify, just send someone to find out.
Then he continued to ask:
"So, what happens after we get to Blind Mountain?"
"They asked us to pick herbs and till the land for them every day."
Li Yu replied quickly.
The elder frowned when he heard this! He said coldly:
"Tell me the details!"
Li Yu immediately recounted his experience with Ma Ji and others in Blind Mountain in detail. There was nothing to hide, and he even told the truth about being beaten up by Ma Ji and others. As for Jiang Zhuyun healing his wounds, he himself did not know, so naturally he had no way to talk about it.
The great elder stared at him again, then turned and walked out the door!
Li Yu saw it and hurriedly followed! The elder did not turn around, but said in a deep voice:
"Just stay here and don't move. You are not allowed to go there!"
When Li Yu heard this, although he was somewhat reluctant, he did not dare to continue following. However, he was extremely hungry now, so he could only rely on his courage to shout:
"Please, old man, give me something to eat!"
I don’t know if the other party heard me or not, he disappeared in a flash!
Although there was still a lot of honey in his powder box, he didn't dare to take it out rashly at this time, because he didn't know if someone was secretly watching him. After all, judging from the attitude of the elders, they were full of suspicion about him.
Just when he was feeling hungry, a fragrant aroma came from the door. He looked up and saw a little girl wearing light green clothes and a double bun on her head walking in with a tray in her hands.
Li Yu had no time to observe the little girl's appearance, his eyes were fixed on the food on the tray!
A roast chicken, a few snow-white steamed buns and a bowl of millet porridge were placed beside it. It seemed that they were just out of the pot and were still steaming!
Seeing that he looked like a starving ghost, the maid couldn't help but snort and put the plate on the dining table.
Although Li Yu wanted to grab the roast chicken and stuff it into his mouth immediately, he didn't dare to be presumptuous because of his habit of begging for many years! And he couldn't believe that such a good meal was for him!
