Chapter 2631 One Less
Elder Ding on the side said with a smile: "Old Wan, don't make it difficult for him! Now almost the entire Primordial Sect knows that these snow jade silkworms will attack people, so many handymen are reluctant to come.
Let's go to see the situation of Xueyu Silkworm first, as for the three of them to observe and observe. "
Elder Jiang also echoed: "That's right, Lao Wan, let's take a look at our baby first. In another month, these snow jade silkworms will form cocoons, and they will mate when they break out of the cocoon. Let's talk about it. There will be dozens of snow jade silkworms."
Yun Chujiu wondered at the side, there are five or six hundred snow jade silkworms in the silkworm house, how come there will only be dozens of baby silkworms after mating? Don't these three count?
While they were talking, they arrived at the silkworm house, and the three elders began to count the number of Xueyu silkworms.
Huo Zhi's palms began to sweat. Although he already had someone to blame, he was still a little nervous about being a thief.
"Huh? Isn't there 601 Xueyu silkworms in the book? Why is there one missing? Could it be that we counted it wrong?" Elder Ding said in surprise.
"Count it again!" Elder Jiang said with a frown.
The three of them counted twice again, but there was still one snow jade silkworm missing, and the faces of the three of them suddenly became gloomy.
Elder Wan shouted sharply, "Huo Zhi, what's going on? Why is there one missing piece of Snow Jade Silkworm?"
Huo Zhi had a frightened look on his face: "This, how is this possible? When I handed it over to the three of them yesterday, I paid the number again. It was exactly six hundred and one, how could there be one missing? ,what is the problem?"
When Elder Wan heard Huo Zhi say this, his face became even more gloomy: "I said that it is not reliable to find a handyman in Waifeng, you see, just one day has lost a snow jade silkworm, if it takes a long time, it will be better. Got it?!
The three of you are simply daring, saying, "Where's that snow jade silkworm?" Was it accidentally killed by you, so the corpse was destroyed? "
Although Elder Ding and Elder Jiang didn't speak, they looked at Yun Chujiu and the three of them displeasedly. Accidentally killing Xueyu Silkworm was a big mistake, they actually concealed the truth, plus one more class, these three handymen were too daring!
"Three elders, we are only three handymen, how dare we kill the treasure of Tianji Peak? Besides, when we came yesterday, Senior Brother Huo didn't count the number of snow jade silkworms with us, so it was less. That snow jade silkworm should ask Senior Brother Huo?" Yun Chujiu said neither humble nor arrogant.
Huo Zhi immediately jumped and said, "You are talking nonsense! Yesterday, I clearly counted the number of snow jade silkworms in front of you, and it happened to be six hundred and one."
"Three elders, it will take at least a quarter of an hour to count the number of these snow jade silkworms? Yesterday, after Senior Brother Huo took us to the silkworm house, he left in a hurry. How can there be time to count the snow jade silkworms? The three elders If you don't believe me, you can ask the disciples who watched the fun outside Sangyuan yesterday." Yun Chujiu said with a light smile.
Huo Zhi's forehead suddenly had cold sweat seeping out. He was in a hurry to leave yesterday, and he didn't take this into consideration. If he asked, it would be revealed.
Elder Ding caught a glimpse of Huo Zhi's nervous expression and Yun Chujiu's candid expression, and he was a little suspicious.
Huo Zhi's legs trembled a little. Once the matter was revealed, the punishment he received was not just three months of thinking.
