Bi Yubai and Fan Yao decided to visit the leader of the Beggar Gang at night. Even if their guess was wrong and Ren Ci was really too sick to get out of bed, that's okay, they could also ask each other about the whereabouts of the Holy Fire Order.

As soon as midnight came, Bi Yubai and Fan Yao went out.

Mei Jingxian didn't worry about them. With Bi Yubai's skills, there are very few people in this world who can hurt him.

And according to Bi Yubai's level of jumping off and making a fuss, instead of worrying about him, it's better to worry about Ren Ci who was approached by him.

While sleeping drowsily at night, Mei Jingxian was awakened by a hasty knock on the door.

He put on his coat casually, opened the door, and saw Fan Yao and Bi Yubai standing outside the door with a glimpse of the unextinguished candle in the room, followed by a woman in a black veil. A comatose and haggard middle-aged man.

Fan Yao put him on the bed, Mei Jingxian hurriedly grabbed Bi Yubai, "What's going on?"

Bi Yubai took a sip of tea, wiped his mouth and said, "This is the director of the beggar gang, Ci, he has been poisoned, Xiaomei, can you cure it?"

"I'm not Wanhua's healer." Mei Jingxian shook her head helplessly, and took out a detoxification pill, "I have a detoxification pill here, but I don't know what kind of poison he got, and the detoxification pill can only suspend the poison in his body." Toxicity, after all, treats the symptoms but not the root cause, if you want to detoxify, you have to go to a doctor with superb medical skills."

Fan Yao took the detoxification pill and gave it to Ren Ci who was on the bed. After a while, his complexion faded from paleness, but he still didn't wake up.

Mei Jingxian stepped forward to feel her pulse, and shook her head, "Sure enough, the poisoning of Chief Ren is not something that happens in a day or two. He has been poisoned deeply, and it may take a long time to clear the poison in his body. I don't know medical skills. I don't know what kind of poison he has been poisoned by, and I don't know how to prescribe the right medicine. The detoxification pill is only effective for a while, and it will be useless if you take it two more times."

Bi Yubai stood up and said, "I'll go find the doctor."

"Wait a minute, young man." The woman in the black veil said, "Young man doesn't know something. I was good at using poison in the past. Although I am not as proficient in detoxification as poisoning, it is still better than ordinary doctors. Even I can't cure Ren Ci's poison, let alone an ordinary doctor. And when the young hero brought me and Ren Ci out just now, Nangong Ling was already alarmed. Now he is afraid that he has gathered the disciples of the beggar gang to search everywhere. The young hero If we run into them in this trip, I'm afraid there will be a conflict."

"Then what should we do?" Bi Yubai was a little distressed and irritated.

They came here for the Holy Fire Order, although he couldn't bear to rescue Ren Ci, he didn't intend to intervene in the internal affairs of the Beggar Clan.

Although Mei Jingxian didn't know much about these matters, but human life is at stake, so he couldn't help but delay at this moment, so he hurriedly said: "I heard that Master Ximen's medical skills are superb, why don't I invite him to come and have a try."

Ximen Chuuxue's room was opposite to him, he knocked on the door, and the other party opened the door quickly.

Also awakened in the middle of the night, Ximen Chuuxue was neatly dressed and had radiant eyes, which formed a sharp contrast with the boy's black hair and casual clothes.

It was only then that Mei Jingxian realized what was wrong with her. She felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't care about that much at the moment, and hurriedly said: "Master Ximen, I heard that you have excellent medical skills. There is a patient who hopes you can help."

Ximen Chuuxue looked at the room behind him and nodded.

Over there, Ximen Chuuxue was checking Ren Ci's pulse, while Mei Jingxian tidied up her clothes while listening to Bi Yubai talking about the ins and outs of tonight.

It turned out that their previous guess was correct. The head of the beggar gang, Ci, was not bedridden at all, but was raped by his adoptive son Nangong Ling and placed under house arrest for more than two years.

Bi Yubai and Fan Yao went out to the beggar gang at night, and Ren Ci's wife asked them for help, so they brought the poor couple out.

After Ximen Chuuxue felt his pulse, he turned to Mei Jingxian, "Do you have any ink?"

Mei Jingxian immediately prepared a pen and paper when she heard the words, and Ximen Chuuxue wrote down the antidote prescription, "Take the medicine once a day, and reduce the dose as appropriate after five days until the remaining poison is completely cleared."

"Thank you, Master Ximen."

After a whole night of tossing around, the sky outside was already pale, Ximen Chuixue returned to the room, Fan Yao went out to buy medicine, Mei Jingxian and Bi Yubai leaned on the chairs to rest.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a sudden sound of fighting outside, startled Mei Jingxian suddenly stood up, and Bi Yubai, who was dozing on his shoulder, fell off unexpectedly, and hit his head heavily on the chair with a loud bang.

"Who?!" Bi Yubai stood up, pulled out the two sabers behind her back, stared coldly, and looked left and right.

"Cough," Mei Jingxian looked away guiltily, and pointed out the window, "It seems that something happened outside."

The two walked to the window with Ren Ci's wife, and saw a group of beggar gang disciples besieging Fan Yao under the leadership of Nangong Ling.

Mei Jingxian didn't know Nangong Ling, and only discovered this young man under the guidance of Bi Yubai.

"Nangong Ling seems to be injured?"

The white muslin cloth tied on the opponent's forehead is very conspicuous, and because of the use of force, there are bloodstains on it.

"Hey." Bi Yubai smiled triumphantly, "Last night he wanted to prevent us from taking Ren Ci and Mrs. Ren away, so I—"

He made a thumping motion.

Mei Jingxian immediately understood.

Below, the situation of Fan Yao who was besieged was not critical.

Although the beggar gang has a large number of people, it does not pose a threat to him. After clearing away the obstacles, he slapped Nangong Ling away, and said coldly: "Why do you want to stop me?"

Nangong Ling looked at him with righteous indignation, "Fan Yao, the beggars really don't know about the whereabouts of the Holy Fire Order of the Mingjiao. .”

As soon as he finished speaking, the disciples of the beggar sect who accompanied him continued to clamor, calling for Fan Yao to hand over as the sect leader.

"What a cunning Central Plains person." Biyu snorted and said, "Ren Ci has been tossed like this, how can he be considered safe and sound? Even if we return him and Ren Ci is unconscious, he can still blame us Murdered Ren Ci. Directly put the matter on our heads, let us take the blame for him, and even directly killed Ren Ci, he can still take charge of the beggar gang in one fell swoop."

Mei Jingxian didn't speak, but Ren Ci's wife Ye Shuzhen said: "Nangong Ling is cunning, what Su Xiashi said may indeed come true. Several knights have been kind to my husband and wife, and I will not let you suffer this injustice." Injustice. Right now, Ren Ci is hopeful of detoxification, and we are out of Nangong Ling's control, so we don't need to be restrained by him anymore, so I'll go down and expose his true colors in front of everyone in the Beggar Clan."

Neither Mei Jingxian nor Bi Yubai had any objections.

After all, this matter was conspired by Nangong Ling. Most of the members of the beggar gang were deceived by Nangong Ling. It would be best if unnecessary conflicts could be reduced.

Fan Yao stood guard at the entrance of the inn, preventing members of the beggar gang from breaking through.

He has a delicate mind, and he understands that if the members of the beggar gang see Ren Ci's appearance, and Nangong Ling is instigating him, he will not be able to tell whether he and Bi Yubai have something to say.

But more and more disciples of the Beggar Clan gathered, more and more ants killed the elephant, and he had no intention of hurting others, if it continued, the situation might be bad for them.

When Mei Jingxian and the others went downstairs and went out, Fan Yao had already fought with the outraged disciples of the Beggar Clan. Bi Yubai threw out a golden chain, directly tied his waist and dragged him back.

Ye Shuzhen stepped forward and said: "All disciples of the Beggar Clan, please listen to me!"

Although her face was covered, her voice and figure were familiar to the disciples of the Beggar Sect, and they all recognized her.

"It's Madam Ren!"

"Ma'am, are you okay? How is the boss?"

An older beggar stepped forward, "Ma'am, are you okay? Are these Mingjiao monsters disrespecting you? Where is the leader?"

Bi Yubai was dissatisfied, "Who are you calling a demon?"

Mei Jingxian patted his arm comfortingly.

Ye Shuzhen hurriedly said: "Elder Lao Sun is worried, but these chivalrous men have never done anything bad to my husband and wife, on the contrary, without their rescue, my husband and wife would have been murdered by Nangong Ling! "

Then, she told how Nangong Ling had raped Ren Ci in the past two years, and how she had put them under house arrest and coerced the couple.

After listening to her narration, everyone in the Beggar Clan was in an uproar, looking at Nangong Ling with defensive eyes.

When Ye Shuzhen spoke, Nangong Ling panicked for a moment. He had planned for more than two years to avenge his father by killing Ren Ci, and to fulfill his father's will to take charge of the largest beggar gang in the world, so that he could step forward together with his brother. Step by step to achieve the ambition of unifying the Central Plains martial arts.

And now that Ye Shuzhen opened her mouth to say, all the plans of him and her brother were in vain.

Suddenly remembering that Ren Ci had been deeply poisoned, even after waking up, she couldn't speak clearly now, Nangong Ling relaxed again.

Even though he saw that the spearhead was turning towards him at this moment, his face was still calm.

Since Ye Shuzhen spared no effort to sabotage his plan, it's no wonder that he disregarded the slightest bond between mother and child in the past.

His eyes darkened, and he said: "Everyone, don't be fooled by this woman, she is the one who really harbors evil intentions!"

"How did you say that?" Elder Sun asked in confusion.

"Everyone knows that my stepmother is not called Ye Shuzhen at all. She was originally named Qiu Lingsu. She was the most beautiful woman in the world 20 years ago, and she is also a femme fatale who is good at poison!" Nangong Ling frowned, looking Seeing Ye Shuzhen's eyes were full of disgust and contempt, "She was flirtatious, restless, and had no less than a dozen lovers when she was young. Later, because she was full of love debts, she had to change her name and surname to marry my adoptive father." Unexpectedly, after marriage, she became dissatisfied with my adoptive father, and the husband and wife fell out, so she had an affair with her old lover. After my adoptive father learned of her adultery, in order to prevent his scandal from being exposed, she gave my adoptive father a lie. He was poisoned, which made him stay sick for the past two years."

"You, you spitting blood!" Qiu Lingsu didn't expect Nangong Ling to have such a trick, and she slandered her innocence, feeling disappointed and ashamed in her heart, "I changed my name and surname after I married Ren Ci, and I forgot my past. He is single-minded, never has two minds, Ren Ci's poison was also poisoned by you, all of this is your conspiracy!"

The two had their own arguments, and the members of the beggar gang present were hesitant.

Elder Sun turned to Nangong Ling, with suspicion in his eyes, "If according to what the young gang leader said, since the young gang leader knew about the poisoning of the gang leader, why didn't he disclose it in the past two years?"

"Elder Sun, I have no other choice." Nangong Ling sighed helplessly, "Qiu Lingsu poisoned the adoptive father, and only she can cure the poison. For the safety of the adoptive father, I have to be controlled by her. Now She colluded with Mingjiao people and captured her adoptive father, and I don't know whether the adoptive father is alive or dead at this moment, and I don't care much, so I can only tell all of this."

Watching Qiu Lingsu and Nangongling come and go with completely different rhetoric, seeing Qiu Lingsu's chaos, and the number of Beggars who favor Nangongling gradually increasing, Mei Jingxian and Bi Yubai looked at each other, both in their hearts When he sank, he felt bad.

I thought that if Mrs. Ren came forward to explain, Nangong Ling's conspiracy would be exposed in one fell swoop. After Nangong Ling was restrained, when Ren Ci woke up, the matter would be resolved easily. Unexpectedly, Nangong Ling revealed Mrs. Ren's secret past, and even added fuel to the story. This complicates things again.

Fan Yao had expected the situation in front of him.

Even though Qiu Lingsu was Ren Ci's wife, she was a reclusive woman who rarely came into contact with the affairs of the Beggar Gang. Nangong Ling, as the young leader of the Beggar Gang, was in charge of the Beggar Gang during Ren Ci's poisoning for more than two years. Negative prestige, comparing the two, Nangong Ling's words have more weight than Qiu Lingsu.

That's why he tried his best not to let the members of the beggar gang go upstairs, and he didn't even think about asking Qiu Lingsu to come forward to explain.

The reason why Mei Jingxian and Bi Yubai didn't expect this was also because they were blinded by their inherent concepts.

Mei Jingxian was born in the modern era of equality between men and women. Even if she was reborn in the Tang Dynasty, the atmosphere is more open and the status of women has also improved.Moreover, among the major sects in Jianghu, female disciples have no less right to speak than male disciples.

And Bi Yubai was born in the Ming religion, and he and his fellow disciples underwent harsh training in the harsh wind and sand since childhood. Both men and women received the same level of education, so they never had the concept of women being weak.

So they never thought that the words of Mrs. Ren, who is the wife of the gang leader, would not be able to win the trust of the beggar gang.

Seeing the disciples of the Beggar Clan surrounded by Nangong Ling and Elder Sun, Mei Jingxian shook her head helplessly, "Nangong Ling has sinister thoughts, we can't hand over Ren Gang Leader, for the present plan, we can only leave first. "

He said to Bi Yubai: "Later, you take Mrs. Ren away first, I will go upstairs and bring Gang Leader Ren out, and we will meet outside the city."

The members of the Beggar Gang had no faults, they were just deceived by Nangong Ling, so it would be best not to conflict with them, and when Ren Ci got detoxified and sobered up, the problem would be resolved.
