2631 Chapter 2631

Elder ding smiled and said, “Old Wan, don’t make things difficult for him! Right now, almost the entire primordial chaos sect knows that these snow jade silkworms can attack people, so many odd-job workers aren’t willing to come over.

“Let’s go and take a look at the condition of the snow jade silkworms first. As for the three of them, let’s observe them first.”

Elder Jiang echoed from the side, “That’s right, Old Wan. Let’s take a look at our treasures first. “In another month, these snow jade silkworms will spin their cocoons. When they break out of their cocoons, they will mate and we will have a few dozen more snow jade silkworms.”

Yun Chujiu was puzzled. There were five to six hundred snow jade silkworms in the silkworm room. Why would there only be a few dozen silkworms after mating? Could it be that these three people didn’t know how to count?

As everyone spoke, they arrived at the silkworm room. The three elders began to count the number of snow jade 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.

“Eh? Isn’t there 601 Snow Jade Silkworms on the register? Why is there one missing? Could it be that we counted wrong?”Elder Ding said in surprise.

“Count it again!”Elder Jiang said with a frown.

The three of them counted again, but there was still one missing. Their faces immediately darkened.

Elder wan shouted sternly, “Huo Zhi, what’s going on? How can there be one less snow jade silkworm?”

Huo Zhi’s face revealed a frightened expression, “This, how is this possible?”? When I handed it to the three of them yesterday, I even counted the number. There were exactly 601 snow jade silkworms. How could there be one less? The three of you, quickly tell us the truth. What exactly is going on?”

Hearing Huo Zhi’s words, elder Wan’s face turned even gloomier. “I told you that it’s not reliable to look for odd-job workers from the outer peaks. Look, one snow jade silkworm is missing in just one day. If this goes on for a long time, what will happen? !n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“The three of you are really audacious. Tell me, where is that Snow Jade Silkworm? “Did you accidentally kill it, so you destroyed its corpse and erased all traces?”

Elder Ding and elder Jiang didn’t say anything, but they looked at Yun Chujiu and the other two unhappily. It was a big mistake to kill the snow jade silkworm by accident, and they were even more guilty for hiding the truth. These three handymen were too bold!

“Elders, we are just three handymen. How dare we kill the treasures of Tianji Peak? “Besides, when we came here yesterday, senior brother Huo didn’t count the number of snow jade silkworms with us, so we should ask senior brother Huo about the missing one, right?”Yun chujiu said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.

Huo Zhi immediately stomped his feet and said, “You’re talking nonsense! I clearly counted the number of snow jade silkworms in front of you yesterday, and it just so happened to be 601.”

“Three elders, if you want to count the number of snow jade silkworms, you need at least 15 minutes, right?”? After senior brother Huo brought us to the silkworm room yesterday, he left in a hurry. How could he have time to count the number of snow jade silkworms? “If the three elders don’t believe me, you can ask the disciples who were watching the show outside the Mulberry Garden yesterday,”Yun Chujiu said with a faint smile.

Cold sweat immediately broke out on Huo Zhi’s forehead. He was in a hurry to leave yesterday and had not considered this point. If he asked, he would be exposed.

Elder Ding saw Huo Zhi’s nervous expression and Yun Chujiu and the other two’s magnanimous expressions and had some doubts in his heart. He immediately took out his identity jade token and asked someone to find a few disciples who were watching yesterday to bring them over.

Huo Zhi’s legs were trembling. Once the matter was exposed, the punishment he would receive would not only be three months of reflection.
