Chapter 245: Someone has to take responsibility
Chapter 245 Someone has to take responsibility
Along the way, Ye Danxia tried every means to delay time, but Ma Hongyu kept staring at her. Ye Danxia had no chance to run away, so she was taken to Zhao Wuji's door.
The guard at the door said that Zhao Wuji was still taking care of Han Xiaoyu's health.
Ye Danxia's eyes lit up and she hurriedly said: "Uncle Ma, it seems that the timing is a little unlucky. Why don't we leave first?"
Ma Hongyu grabbed Ye Danxia's arm and said with a smile: "Nephew Ye, don't be in a hurry. If the master has something to do, we can just wait here. It's natural for us to wait for the master, but we can't let the master wait for us. This is our duty as disciples.”
Ye Danxia struggled away for a moment, but couldn't. She couldn't help but feel a little angry, but she really couldn't leave.
Waiting at the door was the most painful time for Ye Danxia.
She was thinking desperately about how to resolve this matter, preferably by passing the responsibility to Ma Hongyu.
How to push it?
When Ye Danxia was thinking hard, the door opened by itself.
Han Xiaoyu walked out.
Zhao Wuji's voice came from inside: "Hongyu, Danxia, you come in."
"Senior Brother Han." Ye Danxia glanced at Han Xiaoyu lovingly.
Han Xiaoyu was about to leave, but when Ye Danxia saw him like this, he couldn't move any further. He quickly stopped, turned around, and went back with Ye Danxia.
Anyway, the master loved him very much, and Han Xiaoyu didn't think the master would drive him away.
really. Seeing Han Xiaoyu turn around, Zhao Wuji just looked at him lovingly, without any intention of caring about him at all.
Zhao Wuji nodded to Ye Danxia, and when he looked at Ma Hongyu, he had regained his majestic expression: "Hongyu, have you collected all the spiritual plants? How does the quantity compare with previous years?"
Ma Hongyu shook his head: "Master, I don't know either."
Zhao Wuji's face changed slightly: "You don't know? You have always been responsible for these things. If you don't know, who should I ask?"
Ma Hongyu glanced at Ye Danxia, and then said with a surprised look on his face: "Master, don't you know?"
Zhao Wuji frowned: "What should I know?"
"This..." Ma Hongyu deliberately glanced at Ye Danxia again, and everyone could see the embarrassment in his eyes.
Zhao Wuji's frown deepened: "But what's going on? Why did you bring Danxia with you? Can this matter have anything to do with her?"
Ye Danxia lowered her head and did not dare to reply.
She had tried hard to think of a way, but Ma Hongyu was too cautious, and she couldn't find an opportunity for a while.
Ma Hongyu looked surprised and said quickly: "Master, yesterday I was going to collect spiritual plants. It was Master Nephew Ye. She came with the master's token and said that the master gave her this task. I checked. After checking the token, it was indeed the one that the leader carried with him. According to the sect's rules, if I see the token, I would not dare to disobey it. Therefore, these spiritual plants are all Master Ye's nephew. I went to collect it. The spiritual plants are all on Nephew Ye’s body now, and I haven’t even seen a single leaf.”
Zhao Wuji's expression changed continuously as he listened.
Why is his leader's token in Ye Danxia's hands?
Zhao Wuji couldn't help but glance at Han Xiaoyu.
Xiaoyu borrowed this token from him because he wanted to study the lines on it.
Xiaoyu is a child who is naturally interested in the art of talismans. There are indeed several talismans engraved on the leader's token.
Zhao Wuji always doted on this illegitimate son. Thinking that Xiaoyu was always cautious and nothing could go wrong, he lent him the token to play with.
As a result, this token actually got into Ye Danxia's hands, and she used it to fake orders?
Han Xiaoyu was also startled, and he couldn't help but look at Ye Danxia in confusion.
Didn’t the little junior sister say it was just for fun?
Ye Danxia felt a little panicked, but she still managed to hold on and said: "Master, I... I just think Uncle Ma is busy with his affairs, so I just want to help him."
Zhao Wuji narrowed his eyes.
He still loves Ye Danxia a bit.
However, after so many things happened, he no longer trusted Ye Danxia as much as he did at first. Zhao Wuji couldn't help but said: "Where are the collected spiritual plants?"
Ye Danxia gritted her teeth and felt a little scared, but she still took out the storage bag and handed it to Zhao Wuji.
Zhao Wuji felt something was wrong when he saw Ye Danxia's expression.
He quickly scanned it with his spiritual mind, and his expression couldn't help but change.
The number of spiritual plants in the storage bag was reduced by half compared to previous years!
Reminiscent of Ye Danxia's guilty look, one can imagine where Lingzhi went!
There was anger burning in Zhao Wuji's heart.
However, he restrained himself forcefully!
There must be something wrong with Ye Danxia.
However, now that Ma Hongyu is here, if he exposes this matter, Danxia is already a guilty person, and if something like this happens again, wouldn't it be an additional crime?
"Master." Ye Danxia looked at Zhao Wuji with a pale face, pleading.
Isn’t it just a little spiritual plant?
Zhao Wuji has embezzled so much over the years, so he probably won't care about himself.
Zhao Wuji's face was dark.
This is not something he can just ignore if he wants to.
In the past few years, he had owned the entire Tianxing Sect and indeed had a lot of resources. However, these resources had long been used by him and several favored disciples. And this time, in order to invite Li Heng to help, He was also bleeding profusely.
Today, Zhao Wuji's money is far less abundant. Moreover, he has now gradually lost the ability to control the other peaks. In order to stabilize the remaining three peaks, he has also given a lot of benefits.
After spending so much money, he was just waiting for this wave of blood to come back.
result!
Ye Danxia actually pocketed so much!
This is simply lawless!
"Master, is there any problem?" Han Xiaoyu asked with some anxiety.
He asked, his eyes kept drifting towards Ye Danxia, and the affection between his eyebrows could not be hidden.
Zhao Wuji suddenly became more irritable.
His son is obviously interested in Ye Danxia.
Originally, a Tianlinggen was worthy of his son.
But this Ye Danxia is a little too bold.
Zhao Wuji suddenly remembered that Han Xiaoyu had consumed much more elixirs recently than before. He only felt that Han Xiaoyu's body was recovering rapidly, which was why the consumption was so great.
Think about it now! I'm afraid there's something else going on!
Zhao Wuji's heart was already burning with anger, but Ye Danxia was his beloved disciple after all. If exposed in public, not only Ye Danxia but also Han Xiaoyu would be separated from him.
But he was asked to accept such a big loss.
Zhao Wuji couldn't do it!
Zhao Wuji looked at Ma Hongyu and suddenly said slowly: "Hongyu, come forward."
Ma Hongyu stepped forward obediently.
Zhao Wuji handed over the storage bag containing the spiritual plants: "I don't know how many spiritual plants there are in previous years. Please help me count them. Don't worry, take it back and count it slowly, and let me know tomorrow. The result will be fine.”
Someone has to take responsibility for this huge loss, and Ma Hongyu is a good candidate!
