Bloody Mary's speculation made Lin Mengya fall into silence.
If Xiu hadn't mentioned it, Sumei would have looked pale, but there was fresh blood in her that ordinary people couldn't smell.
She wouldn't have thought of this.
Moreover, from the moment Xiu was almost abducted, all these incidents seemed to be connected.
Lin Mengya could even see a long black chain on it.
Whether it was the human traffickers and caravan they met on the way, or the people who intercepted them later. Or the thieves who captured Long Tianyu and forced the Immortal Powder into his body.
Now Lin Mengya was almost sure that they were in cahoots.
Sumei was just a pawn, but the other party could spend so much money on her.
What about those girls who had been carefully trained?
Lin Mengya couldn't imagine what would happen if those girls were really trained in such a twisted and strange way.
Perhaps each of them would become a deadly weapon in a disaster. Just like Qinghu in the past.
"It's a pity that we're trapped here and can't get out. If we could get out, I'm afraid those people wouldn't be so unscrupulous. "
Zuo Qiuyu sighed with a little regret, but he didn't expect that his words also reminded Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu.
Yes, the reason why they were trapped here was definitely not only because the elders of the Pavilion of Herbs wanted to trip Zuo Qiuyu up and make him lose the qualification to inherit the position of the Chief Elder.
More importantly, they were no longer a hindrance. Those people who made trouble in the old capital would be even more rampant.
"I see. They're very shrewd in their wishful thinking. Needless to say, the reason why Nan Rui and others dared to attack the Chief Elder and Master Yuan was that they had the support of those people. Humph, I'm afraid that it's not only the Pavilion of Herbs that they want to overturn. "
Lin Mengya snorted with a cold face, but there was not much nervousness in her eyes.
"Let's get out quickly. I'm afraid that something bad will happen if we delay."
Long Tianyu said in a low voice. He had always been sensitive to premonitions. Even though the old capital was in its current state, it still looked peaceful.
But he didn't know how many monstrous waves were hidden in the dark.
"No, we won't do it. Someone will do it outside. Don't worry, everyone. Since we're here, we have to restrain them. Otherwise, that bunch of old geezers would be too complacent. "
Long Tianhao and Zuo Qiuyu were puzzled when they saw how confident Lin Mengya was.
Lin Mengya had never asked for anyone from them. She seldom went out when she was outside.
From her tone, it seemed like she had already planted a chess piece in the dark.
Strange, this girl, when did she do it?
"Alright, stop making wild guesses. At that time, the mystery would be revealed. If you play with me, you'll lose sooner or later. We've been quiet for so many days. Next, it's time to make some noise. Xiu, can you do something for me? "
Xiu, who thought that she had failed in her task, was now full of vexation. Why didn't she send someone to follow them?
Therefore, when he heard that Elder Sister Princess had something for him to do, he was overjoyed.
"Don't worry, Elder Sister Princess. I'll do it beautifully for you!"
Lin Mengya patted her chest to assure Xiu. Then, she smiled and whispered something in Xiu's ear.
Xiu rolled her eyes and a naughty smile crept onto her lips.
"No problem, I promise to complete the task!"
Xiu winked at Lin Mengya. Only the two of them could understand the meaning behind her eyes.
She looked at Xiu and quickly walked out of the room. Lin Mengya looked at Xiu's back and narrowed her eyes.
"What are you planning?"
Zuo Qiuyu and Long Tianhao couldn't help but feel goosebumps when they saw Lin Mengya's smile.
This girl was full of tricks. She was usually well-behaved.
If she made a fuss, the entire Pavilion of Herbs would be in a mess.
"Just wait and see, Xiu. I'll do it beautifully. Don't worry, I'll make them treat us like distinguished guests in a while. "
Lin Mengya said with certainty. Zuo Qiuyu and Long Tianhao looked at each other. What was this girl up to?
Not long after Xiu went out, a few screams came from outside.
Then, if they did not hear wrongly, the screams came from the disciples who were guarding outside the door.
Lin Mengya unhurriedly led Long Tianhao and Zuo Qiuyu to the scene of the incident.
At this moment, Xiu was confronting a group of disciples outside the door with an innocent look.
A purple poisonous scorpion was coiled around her delicate little hand. At this moment, it was obediently lying in her hand, motionless.
At Xiu's feet, there were two disciples lying on the ground. It seemed that they had only fainted.
"Don't come over. My scorpion is not full yet."
Xiu spoke in a crisp voice, but it sounded like a devil's voice piercing the ears.
Lin Mengya saw that many people outside were walking unsteadily.
She could tell at once that they were pretending to be brave.
How timid they were. A poisonous scorpion had scared them so much. Although the scorpion was extremely poisonous and one sting could be fatal, it was so terrifying.
He was so terrifying that he didn't even have the slightest bit of face as a man.
"Xiu, why are you here again? What are you doing?"
Lin Mengya restrained the gloating look in her eyes and said reproachfully as if she had arrived late.
"Elder Sister, you've wronged me. I just want to find something for my scorpion to eat, but these two people outside won't let me out no matter what. So I could only feed them to the scorpion. "
Xiu said innocently, but the scorpion in her hand straightened up. It seemed that it would climb onto those people and bite them in the next second.
Instantly, the group of useless disciples took a big step back.
"Oh? So that's how it is. You're right. If we don't feed the scorpion, it will starve to death, won't it? Anyway, we can't get out. Why don't we do this? In the future, whoever guards the door for us will be fed to your scorpion. Isn't this the same as using local resources? Senior Brothers, may I ask who will be the next one? "
Lin Mengya smiled like a flower, and Xiu was innocent and lovely.
They were two beautiful sisters, but in the eyes of others, they were as terrible as the King of Hell.
Not to mention volunteering to die, even taking a step forward had become a game for the brave.
Unfortunately, none of these cowards dared to step forward.
Xiu pretended to take a step forward, but this group of useless guys was shocked.
Instantly, a few of them were quick-witted and ran away secretly. He secretly ran around, presumably to find someone who could take charge of the situation.
"That … that … Your Highness, this has nothing to do with us. We're just following orders. Please, please don't be angry. Let this lady put away the scorpion first. Let's talk it over. "
A young man who seemed to be of high status was recommended to negotiate with Lin Mengya.
Seeing this group of cowards, Lin Mengya knew that they were just here to die.
Xiu put away the scorpion, but no one dared to step within five meters of the four of them.
Finally, not long after, they saw the five elders of the Pavilion of Herbs hurrying over.
They were all dressed in the white ceremonial robes of the Pavilion of Herbs. They must have heard the disciple's report just after the competition ended, so they rushed over without changing their clothes.
"Greetings, Elders."
Seeing that the decision-maker had come, the disciples naturally danced in joy.
They broke out in a cold sweat because of Lin Mengya just now, but now they felt much more refreshed.
The elders, on the other hand, had bitter expressions on their faces.
Even Chang Tianhua looked the same. Lin Mengya was a little curious. Could it be that in this competition, all five of them had suffered losses?
Interesting, it was really interesting.
"What are you doing? Why aren't you guarding your positions properly? What are you doing here! "
Qian Yuming reprimanded them again. After the incident with Du Zhong, some of his disciples were quick-witted and had already found a way out for themselves.
After all, if one day they were pushed out to be someone else's scapegoat, it would not be worth it to die an unjust death like Du Zhong.
Therefore, except for the disciples of the Qian family, there were not many people with other surnames.
Because of this, Qian Yuming also resented the other elders. Of course, he hated Lin Mengya and her companions the most.
"Elder Qian, it's … it's the princess who thinks it's a little inconvenient to be grounded, so, so …"
The young man who was in charge of communication just now immediately said with embarrassment.
Qian Yuming looked at the two disciples who fell at the door with a sinister look, and a hint of gloating flashed in his eyes.
"Elder Nan, this is your sect's disciple. If they were poisoned to death, you should seek justice for them. "
She immediately kicked the ball to Nan Rui, the old fox.
However, Nan Rui was not nervous at all. Instead, he looked straight at Lin Mengya and said,
"Your Highness, you're really good at joking. They just fainted out of fear. It's my fault for not teaching them well. Please don't laugh at me, Your Highness. "
Lin Mengya was not angry when she heard Nan Rui's words.
She smiled elegantly and looked straight at Nan Rui without any guilt.
"Elder Nan, you're really insightful and meticulous. Yes, these two people just fainted. But don't blame them. I, as a distinguished guest, was a little rude. However, Elder Nan, you've imprisoned us here because of Du Zhong's matter. Now, I'm afraid you have to give us an explanation. Even the emperor can't imprison my husband and my brother at will. Do you want to set up a private court? "
