Chapter 348 2 Elders' Matter
The man who led the way to take the second elder away stood in front of the firewood pile with a pinch of flame suspended in his hand.
"Second Elder, did you think I was here to save you at first?"
The Second Elder could no longer maintain his calm expression and glared at the other party.
"Haha, I won't save you no matter who I save. Back then, your son destroyed my family in order to forcefully marry my sister. Now you are just the beginning."
"My son has always been kind to others, how could he do such a thing? Stop talking nonsense."
After hearing this, Song Ying actually understood something. She also heard some things when she was walking around the city these days.
Many people said that the Second Elder never cared about his son, allowing him to bully many girls outside. He even relied on the Second Elder's power to kidnap many girls and took them home as mistresses.
When Song Ying heard it at that time, he thought it was an exaggeration. If there really was someone so unscrupulous, it would be impossible for no one in the Elders' Council to know about it.
Now it seems that it is not necessarily an exaggeration. The Elders' Council has been suppressed over the years, and it is normal that no one dares to say anything in front of the Second Elder.
It is more likely that some people want to curry favor with the Second Elder and help his son do something shameful.
"What he said is true. The patrol team has received many such incidents over the years. After reporting them to the Elders Council, they disappeared."
Modesty's voice came from the woods, and as the voice came out, people slowly walked out of the woods.
"Whether you know this or not, it's because of your power that their families are now broken up. It's normal for them to want to kill you."
Modesty's six golden wings were particularly dazzling, and everyone's eyes were on him.
"It's just that I have one more thing to ask him right now. You can do whatever you want later."
"Second Elder, there must be something on you that could make those flying snakes outside so crazy and want to attack the protective shield, right?"
"Ha, what are you trying to slander me about? How could there be anything on me? Why would I let it hit the shield? I don't want to die."
The second elder also realized at this time that it was useless to argue about his son's affairs, because the other party had already determined that it was he who did it.
The flying snake attack was really not caused by him, and he can still make some excuses now.
"No, there must be something on you. The flying snakes outside are changing their positions as you move. They are coming for you."
At this time, Modesty just wanted to find that thing quickly to lead the snakes outside away. Otherwise, no matter how much energy she had, it would not be enough to attack the protective shield, and it would break sooner or later.
The few people who had been standing next to the Second Elder also realized the importance of the matter and started to pull off the clothes on the Second Elder.
He stripped the other person down to only a pair of underwear, and a pile of clothes was piled in a mess on the ground.
At this time, the most obvious thing on the second elder was the pendant hanging around his neck. It looked like a scepter. There were many beads on the chain, which looked like very transparent jade.
At this moment, Modesty locked onto the chain directly, flapped her wings gently, quickly walked to the second elder, pulled off the chain, turned around and left with the chain.
He flew directly into the sky with the chain, and Song Ying followed him. Actually, there was nothing for her to do with the Second Elder. This man would definitely die, and the other elders in the forest would take this opportunity to get rid of him.
Before leaving, Song Ying left a poison for the second elder. If it came into contact with the skin, the person would be poisoned. Even if the Council of Elders let him go, he would still die.
Song Ying didn't fly very close and was still quite far away from Modesty. He only saw him put a halo on himself when he rushed out of the protective shield.
The flying snakes outside the protective shield saw him as if they had seen something delicious. The halo he put on his body sensed the attack of the flying snakes and moved quickly, directly cutting off the approaching flying snakes.
More and more flying snakes followed Modesty into the air. After they were far away from the floating island, Modesty threw the chain in her hand far away.
When it was thrown out, the crystal on the scepter emitted light and attacked the chain. The light penetrated the flying snake, causing it to dodge or be killed directly, and successfully touched the chain.
The chain exploded directly after being attacked, and many nearby flying snakes were also blown up.
At this time, the flying snakes flying over from behind did not react for a while and continued to fly towards the explosion point. Modesty took advantage of the time when they gathered and cast many explosion spells.
After leaving the protective shield, Song Ying did not hide, but chopped all the flying snakes that wanted to attack him.
Modesty's method of blowing up the snake no longer worked after a few times. Without the attraction of the chain and the explosion, the flying snake began to retreat and try to escape.
The patrol team members were no pushovers either. After seeing what Modesty did, they surrounded the scattered flying snakes and concentrated their attacks to blow them up one wave at a time.
This way of clearing out flying snakes is much faster and the cleaning is relatively clean. Basically, they are blown into pieces directly, and there is no need to clean up the corpses later.
After Modesty dealt with most of the flying snakes that were gathered together, she wanted to go back to deal with the affairs of the Elders' Council. When she turned around, she saw Song Ying.
"Why are you here, Senior?"
"I saw you were surrounded just now, so I came to check on you in case something happened to you."
"Thank you for your concern, senior."
"What was that chain just now, and why are they so excited?"
"In my inherited memory, it is a flying snake egg. Their eggs are special and look like jade. They can even generate heat when touched."
"They are so crazy just to get the snake eggs back."
After Song Ying got the answer, she no longer cared. As for who did it and who got it, there would definitely be a result in the end, and she just had to wait.
When they returned to the lake, the second elder who had been trapped on the shelf was already trapped in the fire. From what Song Ying could see, he was no longer breathing. It was unknown whether he was killed and then burned or suffocated to death.
The fire was very big. It only took one circle of firewood to create such a large and long-lasting flame. It must be because of the magic used by the previous person.
Away from the fire, the third elder stood at the edge of the woods, looking like "Why am I so late? Why couldn't I save you?"
The acting is still very good. I must be very happy at this moment.
Modesty ignored him and looked at the patrolmen standing nearby. Before he left, he had told them to ask who the chain came from.
"Captain, according to the Second Elder, that chain was given to him by his son not long ago, and he has been wearing it all the time."
"Did anyone go and catch his son?"
"Someone has already gone there. He may have returned to the patrol to make his prison cell by now."
"Well done. You will still have to work harder recently. I'll treat everyone to a drink after the flying snakes are cleared."
"Haha, brothers, we've been waiting for the captain to say this."
While the two were joking, Song Ying saw the group of people who had said they wanted revenge crying and shouting by the lake. After listening for a while, she realized that they were informing their deceased relatives about the matter.
Crying like this is a form of venting. Only by venting can you face the future life better.
Song Ying did not show up in public. When she heard Modesty say that the second elder's son had been captured, she wanted to join in the fun, because one cannot eat half of the melon.
Following Modesty to the patrol team, Modesty knew that Song Ying would definitely follow him. Whenever he encountered a situation in the patrol team where a door needed to be opened, he would wait for a while before asking someone to close it.
When Song Ying walked into the dungeon, he found that the sunlight here was different from that outside. It was eerie and he could hear some people shouting.
The loudest and most arrogant among these shouts came from the second elder's son, Matthew, and his words were all unbearable to the ears.
The patrol officer in charge of the cell warned him with a whip, but it did not make him shut up, but made him even more arrogant.
"You don't need to shout. The Second Elder has been burned to death."
The patrol member who followed Modesty in couldn't stand it anymore and spoke out to stop the other party.
When Matthew heard that his father had been burned to death, he was a little stunned at first, but the next moment he burst into increasingly fierce curses.
Modesty didn't say anything at this time. She drew a circle in the air with her scepter. A few seconds later, a fire burning by the lake appeared in the circle, and a person could be vaguely seen in the middle of the fire.
"He made a mistake, and his crime was not punishable by death. His death was because of you."
Modesty sat on the chair brought by her subordinates and looked more and more comfortable.
Song Ying looked at Modesty like this, and the previous doubts popped up again, is he really still the same Modesty?
After waiting for a while, Matthew calmed down a little, and Modesty started to ask questions.
"Your father has a chain on him, and he says you gave it to him?"
"Yes, I gave it to my father. I got the chain some time ago. I thought it was very interesting, so I gave it to him."
"Do you know what that is? Where did you get it? Or who gave it to you?"
"My friend told me that he got a piece of very good quality stone when he went out on an adventure some time ago, and asked a craftsman to help him make it."
Song Ying was sincere at this time. What Matthew said was true. It seemed that his son did not inherit any of the Second Elder's complicated mind.
"Who is your friend? Where is he now?"
"How come you just arrested me for killing my father, and now you're not letting my friends go either?"
"You don't have to answer, but you have to think it over carefully. We will go to your house to investigate what the Second Elder has done over the years. If you speak up now, maybe the Council of Elders and the public will give you a break."
These words were said by the guard who had always been beside Modesty. After all, it was not easy for Modesty to make such threatening remarks as this might give others an excuse.
Matthew realized something at this time and stopped cursing or talking.
"Go check who he has been in contact with recently?"
Modesty didn't bother to talk to him any more. The more she looked at this man, the more stupid he seemed. It was probably that there was nothing in his brain except some yellow garbage.
Now it seems that he has been deceived and is even helping that person to conceal it.
Modesty was sitting there drinking, looking very comfortable. Matthew in the cell was looking at her greedily, and wanted to ask Modesty to come and eat, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.
Song Ying found it very funny that this man was still thinking about eating and drinking at this moment. It seemed that his father's death had not left any trace on him at all.
Watching Modesty eating, Song Ying actually wanted to eat too, but she had followed in stealthily and it wasn't nice to appear like this all of a sudden, so she could only endure it for the time being.
After eating and drinking for a while, someone was escorted in. The person being escorted was a man. He looked a little thin, and his beautiful long golden hair now looked particularly messy.
"The captain's name is Godfrey. He returned to the floating island about half a month ago. He met Matthew about ten days ago."
"Look, I can catch people even if you tell me. I can catch people even if you don't tell me."
"Thank you, Master Matthew, for helping to conceal it. In fact, you don't have to hide it for a small person like me."
Song Ying was almost laughing to death when she heard this. This was really like taking advantage of someone and still acting like a good kid.
Matthew didn't realize the problem with the other party's words at this time. He was still smiling and replying with something like they were all friends.
"Take him away and interrogate him in solitary confinement."
Modesty couldn't stand to see these two people anymore, so he asked his men to take them away first, and he waited here for news.
Song Ying did not wait here but ran to Godfrey's side to watch the show.
The people on patrol were no pushovers. At first this man was still stubborn but in the end he gave a coordinate and said he saw that kind of stone there and brought it back because he thought it was beautiful.
Song Ying knew that this man was not telling the truth. What he heard with his true heart was that he was actually bewitched by the snake god to bring the things to a crowded place.
Is this snake god the first flying snake to invade here?
After listening to the entire interrogation and finding no new information, Song Ying returned to where Modesty was.
When Song Ying appeared again, she felt Modesty's gaze. Has this person's ability become stronger again? He can actually detect her location.
At this time, Modesty walked towards a small room in the dungeon and told his men that he wanted to take a rest. Song Ying followed him without caring whether he was really resting or not.
After entering the room, Song Ying lowered his voice and recounted what he had just discovered. Modesty did not delve into how Song Ying could know what was in her mind, and nodded to indicate that she understood.
Song Ying no longer waited here for their interrogation. She glanced at the time and saw that it was past dinner time. She was very hungry now and wanted to go back to have a good meal. She would come back tomorrow to see if there was any melon that she had missed.
Now she was actually doing all this in order to complete the hidden mission. Otherwise, she would have simply hidden at the bottom of the lake when Modesty completed the main mission of accepting the inheritance.
After returning to the bottom of the lake, Song Ying took out his hot pot and had a big meal. The lake water here is fresh water, so Song Ying's cabin is not short of water at this time, and he can also take a good bath after eating hot pot.
This kind of life is a rare enjoyment.
The next day when Song Ying went to see Modesty, she heard the whole story.
Godfrey went out on an adventure because he received a bounty from the Second Elder, who said that he wanted to wait for more rare things, and he would reward whoever could find something that interested him.
At first, Godfrey didn't dare to go to places that were too unfamiliar, and the things he brought back after several trips were not to the Second Elder's liking.
During that time, a man ventured to some floating islands that he had never been to before, and found many rare fruits there, which won the favor of the Second Elder.
With such stimulation, Godfrey went to look for things in floating islands he had never been to, until he saw a floating island that was lush and green. When he thought he could find rare fruits, he was discovered by that thing.
