Chapter 183 Protecting the Heart
Chapter 183 Protecting the Heart
He was the temporary successor of High Priest Monk. If he really left, the spies arranged by other forces would definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble. It would be even more difficult to resolve the situation.
He really couldn't get away. In the end, he decided to stay and take charge of the situation. Otherwise, he would still have to clean up the mess in the end.
As for the other guardians, there were no restrictions on their movements. Even if they left occasionally, it wouldn't have a big impact. As long as they let us know before leaving, the things they were responsible for would continue as normal.
Occasionally, they would go out for training or to carry out missions. When they were free, they would stay in the villa most of the time. After all, the villa was in a secluded location and had abundant spiritual energy, which was very suitable for training or healing.
These days, Amber Protector's injuries have almost healed, but she stays indoors all day.
No one in the villa mentioned the unpleasantness between her and Meng Xianyu anymore. But Amber always felt that the way those people looked at her had changed. It seemed that they didn't say it, but they didn't think so in their hearts.
After Amber woke up, she didn't make a big noise, but she smashed most of the things in the room. The maids who served her didn't dare to say anything. But they were always injured.
Amber had no place to vent her anger, so she could only take it out on the maid.
The fact that the guardian Zhuji drugged her was probably the last straw that broke the camel's back. After all, that was the person she had admired for a long time.
The guardian Cong Heng would visit Amber every morning and evening. He was the only one who dared to enter and leave Amber's territory.
Many people feel that it is not worth it for Senior Brother Cong Heng. But whether it is worth it or not is up to him to decide.
Amber's condition was very special, and sometimes Cong Heng felt very strange about it. But he still healed her wounds every day.
Cong Heng thought that Amber's previous disturbance was due to her inadvertently going astray during her cultivation. Therefore, Dharma Protector Cong Heng still took good care of Dharma Protector Amber.
However, the guardian Zhuji has not shown up since the guardian Amber woke up. The guardian Amber thought that the guardian Zhuji felt guilty. But she didn't know that the guardian Zhuji was not in the villa at all.
Zhuji Dharma Protector took great pains to remove the snake venom, and then followed the snake into the mountains. Zhuji Dharma Protector has not returned for many days.
The other guardians were busy dealing with the troubles down the mountain. Even if they were fine, they probably wouldn't dare to hang around in front of the Amber guardian.
Now everyone else has gone down the mountain, and only Ulan and her son, Liya, Nuomin, Rejia and a few other outsiders are left in the villa.
Liya has woken up, but she is still very weak. Rejia was poisoned so badly that it is unknown whether he can wake up. Nuomin is luckier and can now walk.
The three of them were all taken care of. They were much luckier than the deceased Ah Xi.
After Nuomin woke up, his temperament became much calmer. He knew that there were some things he couldn't ask, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Leah became more and more irritable.
Wulan always tries to coax Liya in various ways, fearing that she will be upset. Even if Liya gives her a cold look, she still takes care of Liya with all her heart.
Yeshi practiced martial arts every day. Yeshi was very obedient. There was only one thing that Wulan could not do to him.
Ever since Liya woke up, Wulan wanted Yixi to go see her sister.
But Yixi always found various reasons to reject Wulan's proposal. It seems that the little boy has grown up.
After a long time, Wulan also saw through Yixi's little thoughts.
Wulan scolded Yixi severely for this. However, Yixi was young and had a bad temper. No matter what Wulan said, he just kept silent and refused to agree to meet Liya.
Yixi would rather be punished than go.
Wulan had no choice but to wipe away her tears secretly.
Even though Leah is not her biological daughter, she has indeed brought her a lot of happiness over the years.
Although she was very disappointed with Leah this time, Leah had already received the punishment she deserved.
Although Liya and the other three survived, the toxins in their bodies could not be eradicated, and they could no longer practice cultivation. They even had to take medicine for the rest of their lives. The three of them were useless.
Leah and the other three didn't know the real result and thought that they would recover if they continued to recuperate for a period of time.
Although they saved their lives, the price was too high. The other two families wanted to take the children back home. They thought that Zhuji, the guardian, had great medical skills and would be able to cure the children.
They all believed in the medical skills of the guardian Zhuji, but they didn't expect that the final result would be like this.
Not being able to practice cultivation and having to take medication for life is too fatal for an ordinary family.
The two families could not accept such a result and had a big fight. But whether they fought or not, the result could not be changed. Linlang Dharma Protector came out to mediate. I don't know what Linlang Dharma Protector did, but in short, the two families stopped fighting.
But they no longer ask to take their children back. After all, they cannot provide the best care for their children with their ability, and they also need to live and survive.
The worst hit in this incident were probably the family that lost their only daughter. However, they were also the culprits who set fire to the village head's house.
Fortunately, the spread of the fire was under control and there were no casualties. As for those personal belongings, Mu Ren did not pursue them.
The family fled the small fishing village after setting the fire, but has now been caught and imprisoned.
Originally this family was the victim, but now they have become the arsonists. It is really unpredictable. Maybe the loss of their loved ones has made them lose their minds.
Muren went down the mountain early, and he had already dealt with the riots at the foot of the mountain.
Muren, his two sons and some villagers are rebuilding their homes. The burned old house is no longer usable, and neither is Wu Na's house.
Muren did not mention anything about what happened on the mountain. Even to his two sons, he only mentioned it briefly. As for Liya and Wulan, they were naturally allowed to stay on the mountain on the grounds that they had not recovered yet.
Muren's two adopted sons were both smart people, and they naturally knew that it was better not to know some things. Besides, their new home had not been built yet, so even if Wulan and her son went down the mountain, they would have nowhere to live.
Fortunately, the three of them were popular in the village, and with Muren's status as the village head, many villagers came to help.
The problems in the village were basically solved. With the combined efforts of Dharma Protector Linlang and Village Chief Muren, the small fishing village gradually returned to its former tranquility.
However, many villagers were unwilling to risk going out to sea to fish. Many families were already struggling to make ends meet. Muren couldn't bear to see them suffer, so he promised to stay with them and go out to sea after their house was built.
Linlang wanted to dissuade them, after all, Wulan's family's problems had not been resolved yet. Wulan and his family lived in the villa, so naturally no one would cause trouble.
But if their house is built, Wulan will definitely take Yixi and Liya back with her.
Wulan already had a bad relationship with the villagers, and life would definitely become even more difficult for the three of them.
In addition, Wu Na rebelled against the Holy Mountain, and the people of the Holy Mountain would definitely come to cause trouble. As Wu Na's Ali, how could Wu Lan escape responsibility?
Seeing Muren solemnly promising the villagers, and looking at the expectation in the villagers' eyes, Linlang forgot to remind them for a moment.
Linlang shook her head helplessly and could only find a way to clean up the mess herself.
After all, the Manta Tribe still had to rely on fishing to make a living. He couldn't stop them from going out to sea. If this matter hurt the hearts of the tribe members because of Wulan and her son, they would probably target Wulan's family even more.
Anyway, Linlang was used to cleaning up other people's messes. He could only think of ways to remedy the situation. At worst, he could just keep Wulan and her son for a while longer.
In fact, it didn't matter how long Yixi stayed in the mountain villa. If anyone in the village asked about it, they could just say that the child had good talent and had found a master in the mountains.
But now everyone in the village knows that Liya and the others are injured and are already disabled. Their injuries have improved, and they will have to go down the mountain sooner or later. They can't stay in the mountain forever.
Wulan's identity was already very embarrassing. Although she claimed to stay in the mountains to take care of the children, there were still people who talked behind her back. Those people only dared to say bad things about Wulan. They didn't dare to offend the priests at all.
Linlang was willing to help, but was afraid that if he got involved, those people would become even more aggressive. After all, Linlang's identity was special, and he was now acting as the high priest. If he expressed his opinion, wouldn't that represent the attitude of High Priest Monk?
Many people of the older generation still remember that Monk and Ulan were once a pair of lovers.
At this moment, Wulan is still Muren's nominal wife. If Wulan is criticized, Muren will also be implicated.
What happened between them was too bloody.
Dharma Protector Linlang did not want to complicate matters. He did not want Wulan and her son to be harmed. Especially Yixi, he was still too young, and these things should not be borne by him.
Thanks to the efforts of Linlang and Muren, the small fishing village has temporarily returned to its former peace. But it is unknown how long this peace can last.
Dharma Protector Linlang has received a visiting card from the temple, asking to see the high priest.
The news that the high priest was injured and recuperating had already spread, but people outside did not know the exact severity of the high priest's injury.
The temple sent two elders to visit. They said it was a visit, but in fact they came to question him.
The two elders were notoriously difficult to deal with, and they brought ten disciples with them. The strength of those disciples was also quite strong.
After seeing the invitation, Dharma Protector Linlang felt a splitting headache. Then he sent someone down the mountain to deliver a letter, asking them to meet at the foot of the mountain three days later.
Since Meng Xianyu and her group came down the mountain, Guardian Linlang has not had much rest. His headache has become more serious in the past two days.
His subordinates saw him rubbing his temples and were about to persuade him to rest early. But suddenly, Guardian Linlang felt something wrong with his body, and he immediately noticed it and protected his heart meridian.
