Chapter 418: Twists and turns

Hearing this question, Chu Yang smiled, but did not answer directly. Instead, he said: "I can't tell you this question yet. I can only tell you after grandpa wakes up."

"All right."

Wei Zirui knew that this must be a confidential matter, so he did not continue to ask.

After Chu Yang and others left, the elders also dismissed the onlookers and began to discuss the emergency behind closed doors.

They had planned this for a long time and thought they could force Wei Sizhe to agree to give up some distribution rights, but they didn't expect that the other party had a back-up plan and caught them off guard.

After a moment of silence, a slightly younger man asked in a deep voice: "Uncles, this alchemy formula has always been our secret. Why does Wei Sizhe know about it?"

This is a question that everyone wants to know. Ever since the ancestors separated the cultivation techniques and the alchemy techniques, the main family and the branch family have each been in charge of one branch, and there has never been a situation where the other party has known about it.

Unexpectedly, today Wei Sizhe recited a few alchemy formulas, which will undoubtedly affect the necessity of family separation, and can't help but frighten everyone.

After thinking for a while, a clan elder wearing brown clothes hesitated and said: "Is it possible that someone has taken refuge in the clan?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense, and everyone's eyes began to wander, seeming to be looking for possible betrayers.

Seeing that everyone was beginning to doubt each other, Wei Qinzhi patted the coffee table and said displeasedly: "The disciples we have selected are all people of pure origin and pure character. They all took a blood oath before entering the school. I don't think anyone will do this." If such a stupid thing happened, as for us old guys, we have been studying alchemy for at least sixty years, and there has been no trouble during this period, so we can rule out suspicion. "

The old man with rosacea said irritably: "Lao Liu, according to what you said, it couldn't be that our ancestors showed up and taught it to Wei Sizhe in a dream, right?"

Wei Qinzhi picked up the tea bowl, blew the tea stem on the edge of the bowl, and said calmly: "Although it is impossible for the disciples to seek refuge with the clan, it cannot be ruled out that someone accidentally let it slip and passed on the alchemy formula to The situation in Wei Sizhe’s ears.”

Several clan elders looked nervous. Wei Qinzhi was the leader of the clan elders. He said this because he believed that someone had leaked the secret. If this was found on his disciples, there was no guarantee that he would not be implicated.

"Then who do you think it could be?"

The old man with rosacea was a straight-tempered person and never liked beating around the bush, so he asked this question directly.

Several young men in the hall were all disciples of the clan elder present or the previous clan elder. Naturally, they were also within the scope of suspicion. When they heard Rosacea speak, they all patted their chests to prove their innocence.

Wei Qinzhi put down the tea bowl, waved his hand and said: "Who did it remains to be verified. Let's go and gather the disciples who have learned the medicine chapter and find out if anyone has secretly communicated with the clan. If anyone dares to For such reckless behavior, I must kill him with a stick!"

When the disciples took the order and left, the old man in brown clothes sighed: "We have been taught alchemy by the Zong family. We are very passive here. It will be even more difficult to fight against the Zong family in the future."

Next, the other three clan elders also had gloomy expressions on their faces, expressing concerns about their future prospects.

After the initial panic, Wei Qinzhi had calmed down. After analyzing the overall situation, his worries had decreased a lot.

"Everyone, please don't get confused. This matter is not as bad as you think."

Wei Qinzhi said calmly.

The old men looked happy, and Rosacea asked first, "Brother Six, what do you mean by this?"

Wei Qinzhi sneered: "The few elixirs that Wei Sizhe has mastered are only part of the introductory chapter and the seventh chapter. Although the "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Qi" handed down by our ancestors is incomplete, there are still more than thirty As far as I know, among all the disciples so far, the highest one has only learned eighteen chapters. Even if there are disciples who come to join us, Wei Sizhe can only get the formulas for these eighteen chapters, which will not shake our foundation.

What's more, apart from the several elixirs in the introductory chapter, each disciple of those important elixirs only learned one. Even if Wei Sizhe learned eighteen elixirs, he could only refine one of the important elixirs, and Compared to the dozen or so we have, it is simply insignificant, so everyone should not get into trouble and look for useful clues first. "

The clan elders in the hall agreed very much with this and nodded one after another:

"Brother Six is ​​right. Wei Sizhe hasn't made any move yet. Maybe he only got a few elixirs. I'm afraid he can't even understand them."

"I think so too. Wei Sizhe will never dare to quarrel with us. Otherwise, if the elixir is gone, he will be blinded if he can't keep it all. And the people's support is on our side, so he has to think twice before taking action."

"Wei Sizhe is just a kid with a bad mouth. There is nothing to worry about. I think this is Wei Yongyuan's handiwork. I'm afraid he is just making excuses to break through the bottleneck. Maybe he is making plans behind the scenes. I think it's better to find an opportunity to force him to come out and confront him. alright."

The clan elders talked to each other and began to discuss ways to remedy the current unfavorable situation.

Back at Zhengqi Hall, the Wei family members gathered around.

Previously, they heard that the elders wanted to question Wei Yuxin and Chu Yang. The Wei family felt that the other party's motives were impure and they most likely wanted to take the opportunity to attack the clan.

At that time, several young men, Wei Zixin and Wei Zirui, picked up weapons and planned to help Wei Yuxin and his wife escort them.

Seeing how reckless they were, Wei Sizhe was afraid that they would cause trouble, so he asked Wei Siqian to restrain the juniors to wait at home, while he took Wei Zirui to the council hall to understand the situation.

Just because everyone couldn't go didn't mean they were in the dark. Wei Siqian had to protect his father, so he couldn't leave Zhengqi Hall, so he asked his men to get information, and they would take turns to come back every few days to report the news.

At first, when they heard that the situation was not favorable to Wei Yuxin and her mother, everyone's heart was lifted, fearing that the elders would take the opportunity to make trouble.

When they heard that Chu Yang had beaten Wang Qiqiao, even Wei Zilian, who had always been calm, became worried, thinking that Chu Yang would be attacked in front of so many people, and he would be skinned alive if he didn't die.

Who knew that when they were discussing how to rescue Chu Yang, the subordinates who had inquired about the news said that the matter had been exposed because Chu Yang had resolved the crisis by using Wang Qiqiao's pregnancy.

When everyone heard this strange news, they were a little amused.

Later, everyone learned that the elders had turned their attention to the issue of material distribution rights, and with the unanimous support of the majority of the people, they surrounded Wei Sizhe and others in the meeting hall.

Now, even Wei Siqian, who was at home, became anxious, fearing that his elder brother would be forced to agree to the elders' request.

Just when Wei Siqian was about to gather his men to rescue Wei Sizhe, he heard his subordinates flying to report that Wei Sizhe had calmly left the meeting hall and was leading people to the Zhengqi Hall.

"What on earth is going on?"

Everyone in the Zhengqi Hall was confused. In just half an hour, the situation had turned around several times, which was even more exaggerated than the plot of a movie.
