Chapter 309
The previous Wang family had seven elders.

There are only five elders in the Wang family this term.

He Pingzhang's master is the seventh elder, but he is more talented. According to his cultivation level, by his generation, he has become the third elder.

In addition, the second elder passed away a few years ago.

The Great Elder is not very common.

Most of the daily affairs of the Wang family are handled by He Pingzhang and Wang Xuan.

On weekdays, He Pingzhang is more responsible and teaches the Wang family's disciples to practice.

And he himself only accepted one apprentice, and that was Wang Ke.

Although Li Yunhe had little contact with Wang Ke, he had heard from others that He Pingzhang loved his apprentice very much.

He Pingzhang never got married or had children in his entire life. He almost took care of Wang Ke as his own son, and the relationship between master and apprentice was very good.

Practitioners often get injured all over their bodies.

The Li family has almost contracted the entire medical clinic in Yuyang County.

Therefore, Li Yunhe often contacted the young disciples of the Wang family to heal their injuries.

Every time we chat about healing, we hear that the young disciples of the Wang family seem to be envious of Wang Ke.

Because He Pingzhang really cared deeply about this apprentice.

People say that a master must spare his disciples, or else he will teach his disciples to starve the master to death.

However, He Pingzhang taught Wang Ke all he could. Any good skills or medicinal materials he had would be piled on Wang Ke.

The young disciples of the Wang family are all envious and say that the master He Pingzhang is more like a father, and he is also the kind of peerless good father.

Master Zhou was a little confused after listening to Li Yunhe's words, "But the fact that the body is in his house is indeed a bit suspicious."

Li Yunhe said: "This is indeed suspicious."

Master Zhou looked at Li Yunhe and heard in his words a completely different idea from his own.

He understood clearly that Li Yunhe felt that if He Pingzhang really killed Wang Ke, he would not hide the body in the house.

However, what the great elder said makes sense.

Zhenren Zhou couldn't make a decision for a while.

He Pingzhang and the elder were still arguing at this time.

He Pingzhang took a deep breath and said, "Great Elder, don't you think this is a bit unreasonable? You want to say that I killed this person, but you have to give me a reason why I killed my apprentice?"

Hearing this, the great elder narrowed his eyes and said, "Wang Ke, you came to see me a while ago."

He Pingzhang's eyes were blank, and he didn't know why the elder said this.

Then I heard the great elder continue: "He told me that you are studying the art of immortality."

He Pingzhang's expression changed.

The great elder stared at him closely, his eyes still aggressive, "Third brother, you should know that the immortality spells recorded in the world today are all evil arts. Do you want to enter the evil way?"

Zhou Zhenren and Li Yunhe were stunned again.

Wang Xuan was also shocked.

This is really a thunderbolt.

Wang Xuan couldn't help but look at the great elder and asked hurriedly: "Is this true, uncle?"

The elder raised his chin towards He Pingzhang, "Ask him yourself."

Wang Xuan followed his words and his eyes fell on He Pingzhang's face.

He Pingzhang's face turned pale with a hint of guilt, "It's not like that, I'm not studying evil arts..."

The Great Elder suddenly interrupted him, "So, you admitted that this matter was true. You guessed that Wang Ke might know about it, and you were afraid that he would leak the secret, so you killed him, right? ?”

He Pingzhang's eyes widened and he shook his head quickly, "No, that's not the case! I, I'm not studying magic! I just want to study the secret of the great elder's immortality! I thought, maybe I can reproduce it , it’s just the recipe for immortality! I, I never thought about going into evil ways!”

They are all members of the Wang family, and the elder's appearance has not changed over the years.

But he looked at himself in the mirror, getting older every day.

This kind of contrast is strong, heartbreaking, and can make people have evil thoughts.

He Pingzhang thought, the great elder can be so immortal, why can't he?
However, he also knew that even if he asked the great elder, the great elder would not share the prescription with him.

If the great elder was really willing to share his recipe for immortality with others, He Pingzhang wouldn't have to worry.

He clearly understands the temperament of the great elder. No one is willing to share such a good thing.Therefore, he privately studied the prescriptions that the great elder might take.

However, every time the great elder buys medicine and prepares medicine, he does it himself.

It was impossible for He Pingzhang to bribe others, get some dregs of medicine, and piece it together by himself.

He could only stare at the situation on the Great Elder's side.

Every time, when the great elder had just disposed of the medicine residue, he would search to see if he could find some more powder.

Sometimes, it is possible to find some powder.

However, the powder was far from enough, so he asked him to gather the medicinal ingredients.

So he has been researching it privately over the years, but has never been successful.

The last time he followed the great elder to check for medicine residue, Wang Ke did notice his unusual behavior and followed him secretly, asking him what he was doing.

Although he was shocked at the time, he was his apprentice after all, and he sincerely trained Wang Ke as his own son.

If he could live forever, he would also share the prescription with Wang Ke, so that Wang Ke could live forever like him.

Therefore, he told Wang Ke his thoughts.

Wang Ke didn't say anything.

Later, I even helped him collect medicine residue.

He Pingzhang never expected that Wang Ke would tell the truth to the great elder in private.

However, so what if he told the Great Elder, he was just unwilling to do so. The Great Elder could live forever and study it himself!

What's wrong with this?

Even if word gets out, the worst it can do is get criticized a few times.

In his opinion, this would never lead to him killing the apprentice he had trained as his own son.

He Pingzhang's mouth went dry as he defended.

Li Yunhe and others frowned, not knowing who to believe for a moment.

The elder stared at He Pingzhang closely and stroked his beard, as if thinking about the authenticity of these words.

After a while, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Who knows whether what you said is true, and who can guarantee that you have not done other evil things, and Wang Ke found out about it and wanted to kill someone? In short, people die in There is always something to do with you in your room."

When He Pingzhang heard this, he was so anxious that he wanted to roar.

Seeing his scratching look, Wang Xuan hesitated, "Great Elder, is there any hidden secret here?"

"What's the secret?" The great elder rolled his eyes at him, "If someone dies in the third child's room, he is the biggest suspect no matter what. Is this wrong?"

Wang Xuan: "..."

It seems right.

The great elder stared at He Pingzhang, and before He Pingzhang opened his mouth to defend himself again, he said loudly: "Here comes——"

Before he finished speaking, the remaining fourth elders and fifth elders came in with their respective apprentices.

It was as if he had already heard about it and was ready.

Seeing them coming in, He Pingzhang had a bad feeling.

He almost wanted to turn around immediately and jump out of the window.

But the Great Elder seemed to have seen what he wanted to do, and said quickly: "Catch him and put him in the dungeon!"

He Pingzhang's expression changed when he heard this, and he quickly turned around and ran towards the window.

But the fourth elder and the fifth elder immediately rushed forward with their disciples and surrounded him from all sides.

Although He Pingzhang's strength is one of the best among the elders, but they are both elders, so there is not much difference in strength.

Coupled with the large number of Fourth Elders and Fifth Elders, He Pingzhang was pushed to the ground with little effort.

It is simply impossible for He Pingzhang to break through.

"Let me go! I really didn't kill him! Wang Ke is my apprentice, how could I kill him? I am really unjust. You can't just arrest me without evidence! Let me go quickly! I want to defend myself, and I can still defend myself!”

The fourth elder and fifth elder seemed not to hear.

The Great Elder, who was standing aside leisurely, heard this and said expressionlessly: "Whether he is unjustly accused or not, we will naturally investigate, but until the truth is investigated, you will always be the biggest suspect, so you need to stay in the dungeon. , if you don’t want to be branded as a murderer and die, then be honest, remember the past friendship, and we are both members of the Wang family. We will naturally not make things difficult for you until the investigation is clear, but if you still want to escape, or If you do anything else, don’t blame us for being rude.”
