Chapter 179 The Pill Was Stolen
Seeing that it was getting late, Xie Jinglan handed her brother to Hu Xiu and asked him to take him to find their grandmother.
They came to the front hall where their master Zhong Lixiao lived, and saw that all the elders were there, as well as several of their own direct disciples, all of whom looked unhappy.
"Disciple greets Master and all the elders." Beitang Yuan and Xie Jinglan greeted them one by one.
"Get up!" Zhongli Xiao looked up at them with an uneasy look.
"Master, what's wrong?" Xie Jinglan asked first.
"Girl Lan, the ten third-grade pills you gave to the sect leader and me were all stolen." The fifth elder spoke first.
"What? The pills were stolen?" Xie Jinglan was shocked. "Where did you put them? How could they be taken away so easily?"
Those pills were made by her using precious materials and her blood as a medicine guide. They were extremely precious. How could they be missing now?
"It was placed in a small box in the secret compartment. There were also some precious medicinal herbs in it, but they were all taken away." On the table next to the fifth elder, there was a small mahogany box, and the contents were empty.
"I also put it in a secret compartment." When Zhong Li Xiao came back and heard the fifth elder say that the pill was gone, he felt something was wrong. When he came back to check, he found that his pill was gone too.
They would hide the more valuable things in secret compartments and then design their own mechanisms so that ordinary people could not open them.
"Outsiders can't get in, it must have been someone from the sect who did it." The Third Elder's face flushed with anger. "If I find out which bastard took it, I'll tear his head off and enforce the sect's rules."
"It seems that this thief is hiding quite deeply." Xie Jinglan sneered in her heart.
When she gave the elixir to her master and the five elders that day, there were only a few elders present, so the person who stole the elixir must be someone who is very familiar with them.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Mu Lingzhu said, "Sect Master, Fifth Elder, the pills are lost, so don't get too upset. Since Junior Sister Jinglan can refine them, I can provide the herbs and ask her to help you refine a few more."
As she spoke, she walked forward, took out a small bag from her sleeve, untied the bag with her hands, and poured the contents onto a table.
"Wow..." She poured out a large pile of medicinal herbs on the table.
Xie Jinglan was surprised. How could so many things be poured out of the small bag in her hand?
[Storage bag! Master, this might be the storage bag the first master mentioned.] Little Jinzi shouted in the space.
Storage bag? Xie Jinglan was even more surprised. There were actually storage bags in this Guangyuan Continent?
Mu Lingzhu really has a strong family background, but I wonder who gave her this thing?
The Emperor of Luofeng? Or the Great Elder?
"Junior Sister Lan, these are medicinal herbs that I have treasured for a long time. Some of them I found in the Myriad Beasts Mountains, and some I brought out from the palace. They are not precious, but I think they are enough to refine a third-grade pill." Mu Lingzhu smiled softly at her.
"Blood marrow grass, dragon spirit fruit, seven-colored lotus... Master, these are all rare medicinal herbs. How could this woman have them too? Although they're not as good as those grown in our space, they're extremely precious in this Guangyuan Continent." Little Jinzi exclaimed.
Seeing the surprise in Xie Jinglan's eyes, Mu Lingzhu felt a little proud. "Junior Sister Lan, if you feel these herbs are not enough, I will find another way."
Zhongli Xiao and several elders saw how generous she was in bringing out such good things, and they all had some approval in their eyes.
The Great Elder, in particular, was very satisfied with this disciple, and felt that it was worth his careful training for so many years.
"Girl Lan, it was because of our negligence that those pills were taken away. Why don't you keep these herbs for now?"
"No need for now." Xie Jinglan would never want anything from this woman. She really didn't even look down on this little bit of medicinal material.
"Junior Sister Lan, we are sisters from the same sect. You don't have to be so polite to me. I have heard everything about you. You are proficient in fighting, alchemy, and magic. You are really amazing. You are the pride of us girls. I will learn more from you in the future." Mu Lingzhu walked over and wanted to hold her hand affectionately.
[Master, I feel like this woman is very scheming. Are you really that close to her? She's already teasing me.]
Last time, you and the Crown Prince didn't give her face and even said such harsh words. You could tell she was angry. Now she's pretending to be friendly with you in front of others. She definitely has ulterior motives.] Little Jinzi reminded her.
"I'm not polite." Xie Jinglan avoided Mu Lingzhu's hand without leaving a trace.
"Lan'er, you don't need it. Is it worth showing off this ordinary medicinal ingredient?" Beitang Yuan said with a cold face.
What's missing from Lan'er's space? Why would she care about this little bit of medicinal herbs?
Ordinary medicinal herbs? Mu Lingzhu's smile froze. Among all the herbs she had, even if she only took out a single blood marrow grass, it would be enough for people all over the world to scramble for it.
Now, in this man's eyes, it has become just an ordinary medicinal herb?
His eyes darkened, "Junior Brother Yuan, I apologize to you for what happened last time. Please don't be angry with me anymore."
Beitang Yuan continued to look cold and didn't want to say another word to her.
Now the relationship between Yuyong Kingdom and Luofeng Kingdom is on the verge of tension, and he has no good feelings towards this woman.
"I don't want your herbs. As for those ten pills, just throw them away! Master, Fifth Elder, you don't have to be so anxious." Xie Jinglan took a look at the herbs.
The ten pills had just been stolen, and this woman sent her the herbs to make pills. Did she want them to be stolen again?
"It's all my fault that I didn't take good care of the courtyards of the Sect Master and the Fifth Elder. I know I was wrong." Mu Lingzhu said with great self-blame.
"Senior Sister, it's our fault for being so careless!" The disciples standing nearby came forward to apologize, "Sect Master, Master, this matter has nothing to do with Senior Sister Lingzhu. I am willing to accept the punishment."
Xie Jinglan looked at these disciples and smiled coldly in her heart. It seemed that they were usually deceived by Mu Lingzhu's hypocritical appearance. If she gave them some small favors, they would be bought over.
"You don't have to blame yourselves so much. It's just ten pills. When I refine more pills, I will definitely give a few more to the elders."
"I told you Junior Sister Lan is very nice!" a disciple said gratefully.
"Master, I think we should give them some more poison pills and leave them there to see who steals them. They deserve to die from eating them." Xiao Jinzi said angrily.
"I think this is a good idea." Xie Jinglan agreed.
The person who stole the elixir must have known that her blood was used as the medicine, so he took the risk to steal it.
Since that person wants to steal so much, let him steal as much as he wants this time.
