Chapter 340: Muddy the Waters
Half past twelve, Yun Province, Bian County.
Albeit after delay. But after a long journey of almost six hours, Xu Feng finally came to this mountain.
The drawbridge has been destroyed. But that didn't stop her from seeing the raging fire that was still burning thousands of miles away in the night.
It wasn't the trees that were burned, it was the laboratory that exploded and caught fire.
Seven or eight hours is obviously not enough for it to be completely burned.
And here, it is inaccessible in the mountains. Neither the explosion nor the fire attracted anyone's attention.
Looking at everything in front of him, the corners of Xu Feng's mouth gradually hooked up a touch of sarcasm.
Lin Zheng, Lin Zheng. When you chose this lab, you probably didn't think that you would find yourself in the situation you are in today, right?
As a result, what was the safest place in your eyes suddenly became your place of death. Is this the greatest irony in the world?
"Tick..."
As soon as I thought of this, the satellite phone suddenly rang. Behind him, Xu Rourou immediately handed it over.
As a result, Xu Feng's brows instantly furrowed.
It's this guy again!
But, the calls came, and she couldn't help but answer. Yes, you can only press the answer: "Hey!"
"President Xu. Cao Anmin's deep voice immediately sounded from the earpiece: "Have you arrived?"
Pursing his lips slightly, Xu Feng said lightly: "It's here." ”
"How's it going over there?"
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, but Xu Feng's tone was very low: "Something did happen." The lab was blown up!"
"What!?"
Cao Anmin's voice suddenly rose, and he hurriedly said, "What about that person?
"I don't know. ”
"Don't know?" Cao Anmin was stunned at first when he heard this, and then immediately roared: "What do you mean I don't know? Aren't you right there?"
Looking down at the cliff not far in front of him, Xu Feng shrugged his shoulders and said, "The bridge is broken." I could only see that there was still a fire over there, and I couldn't get by, and of course I didn't know if there was anyone over there. ”
Cao Anmin was stunned when he heard this, but then he said in a stern tone again: "Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you hurry up and call a helicopter to send you over?"
"Cao Anmin!" even the honorific title of the president was omitted. Xu Fengliu raised his eyebrows and said very unceremoniously: "Please pay attention to your words! I am not your subordinate, what qualifications do you have to teach me?"
"Besides, if you hadn't occupied my satellite phone, my helicopter would have been on its way by now. So, don't waste any more of my time!"
Without waiting for the other party to answer, she directly cut off the call.
"Heh..."
As soon as she hung up the phone, her expression immediately changed from angry to chuckle, and she muttered to herself, "Very good, it will drag on for a few more hours." ”
"Aunt..."Behind her, Xu Rourou finally couldn't hold back, frowned and asked, "Is it really okay for us to do this?"
"What could be the problem?"
Slowly stretching his waist, Xu Feng was just about to continue, but the satellite phone in his hand rang again.
His brows furrowed deeply, Xu Feng glanced at the caller ID, sighed, and answered the channel: "Hey!"
"Turn on the computer, have a meeting!"
After just five words, the phone was immediately hung up.
Pouted again. Xu Feng turned around and returned to the car and turned on the computer.
A minute later, seven figures appeared on the screen at the same time. "Everybody knows the situation. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Li Kecheng didn't have any nonsense, and said directly: "Do you have anything to say?"
"What else is there to say?" Cao Anmin was obviously angry by Xu Feng's previous words and attitude, and his face was very ugly. After waiting for her a few times, he couldn't wait to speak: "Nine times out of ten, Du Fei did this, let's arrest his family first!"
Zhao Ze frowned and said, "Now that the situation is unknown, is it a little inappropriate to arrest someone first?"
"What's wrong?" snorted coldly, Cao Anmin said in a deep voice: "The situation is like this. We also wasted more than eight hours on this, and the consequences of any further delay are unimaginable. If you don't arrest someone first, and when that kid comes back, I'm afraid the matter won't be so easy to solve. ”
"Do you also know that kid's whereabouts are unknown now?" With a straight face, Zhao Ze said expressionlessly: "The other party is also a seventh-rank martial artist. If you arrest his family, he won't turn around and arrest your family? There are only a few people in the other party's family. How many of us are in the family? Are you sure you want to play with him like this? If you're sure, I'll keep an eye on them, and you can send someone to arrest them! I don't dare to take this risk anyway!"
"President Zhao!" Xu Feng just dragged his feet. Now that Zhao Ze is also playing this set, Cao Anmin only felt that the anger in his chest could no longer be suppressed, he stretched out his hand and slapped it on the table, got up and shouted angrily: "You didn't say that when you assigned the task. If you don't dare, why didn't you bring it up at the time?"
"It's not too late to bring it up. There was still no expression on his face, and Zhao Ze said in a flat tone: "Didn't I say it very clearly? I will help you keep an eye on it, and I will definitely not let them slip away." ”
"You..."
"Enough!" Li Kecheng shouted angrily, looking at the two of them coldly: "When is it, you still have to have an infighting first, right?"
"I'm just talking about a fact. Zhao Ze did not flinch because of Li Kecheng's opening, but looked directly at him and said: "Everyone, ask yourself, now that Du Fei's whereabouts are unknown, who of you here dares to touch his family? Whoever dares, come at once. People, I haven't lost a single one so far, I promise you'll catch one of them!"
“...”
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
As Zhao Ze said. Not only did everyone present have no family, but the number of people was more than ten times more than the six members of Du Fei's family.
You arrested his family, and he can't go back and arrest your family?
Or after arresting someone, you will shrink up and not go out for the rest of your life? Is this possible?
This method is only useful if the strength is not equal.
What others can do in the same way, you do it, except to provoke the other party and provoke others to play with you and have an accident.
Now that the enemy is dark and I am clear, you are still deliberately provoking a seventh-grade martial artist, I'm afraid that it won't show that your family is dying fast enough?
After a moment of silence, Xu Feng chuckled lightly and broke the deadlock: "Everyone, in fact, there is no need for everyone to be in such a hurry. It's true that the laboratory was blown up, but it doesn't mean that Lin Zheng is really dead. After all, although he is missing, isn't Du Fei's whereabouts also unknown?"
Cao Anmin said coldly: "President Xu, what do you want to say?"
"Heh..."With a chuckle, Xu Feng's gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and he said in an inexplicable tone: "I want to say, who did this, is it too early to talk about it now?"
After a pause, she continued: "You should still remember that Lin Zheng's sworn expression when he talked about dealing with Du Fei a few days ago, right? Judging from his character, he is not 100% sure, do you think he can say something like that?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then they frowned at the same time and fell into deep thought. As Xu Feng said, everyone knows Lin Zheng's character. That's a guy who's been cautious to the extreme. This can be seen from the fact that his laboratory is set up in this kind of place.
"He... Is it really so incompetent? So easily killed by Du Fei and blew up the laboratory?"
The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and Xu Feng said lightly: "Or is all this actually just his self-directed and self-acting, the purpose is to get rid of the golden cicada's shell, so as to completely break away from our Hidden Dragon Society?"
As soon as the words fell, everyone on the screen was shocked and looked at her in a daze.
Is this possible?
Yes!
In the Hidden Dragon Society, everyone knows what the attitude of the major presidents towards Lin Zheng is.
It is nothing more than wanting to use him, and when the elixir of longevity is completely perfected, he will completely lose his value.
After all, resources are limited. Originally, everyone thought that there would be more than eight, but now it has become nine?
Lin Zheng, such a smart person, really can't think of this?
In the past, the reason why he was willing to lie dormant was because he had no foundation. On his terms, in fact, the result is the same everywhere he goes.
It is exploited for use!
If he continues to stay in the Hidden Dragon Society, even if he controls Du Fei. The question of the ownership of this seventh-rank martial artist, is it his turn to call the shots?
Li Kecheng asked him to hand over control and let everyone share, do you hand over or not?
In that case, why not just stand on your own!
With the help of a seven-rank martial artist, the world is so big, where can he go?
The most important thing is that the elixir of life is still in his hands alone!
This is his capital!
As soon as they thought of this possibility, everyone's hearts sank.
If this is the case, the loss of the Hidden Dragon Society... But it's too big!
"Du Fei's family's affairs, let's slow down for a while!" After being silent for a long time, Li Kecheng said in a deep voice: "President Xu, bring more people, rush to the opposite side as soon as possible, and collect clues as much as possible." In addition, mobilize all your strength, no matter what, you must find out Du Fei and Lin Zheng!"
"Who has an objection?"
Li Kecheng glanced at everyone, and saw that no one spoke again, so he said in a deep voice: "That's it, the meeting is dismissed!"
"Smack!"
Gently closing the laptop, Xu Feng turned her head with the corners of her mouth curled, and saw Xu Rourou looking at herself with a dull expression. She couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
“...”
Xu Rourou didn't know what to say.
And also... Is this how it works?
It turns out that some things, when said in different people's mouths, can really have different results!
Slowly shaking her head, Xu Rourou muttered with disbelief on her face, "Aunt... They... That's it?"
"Otherwise?" After combing the wind-blown hair slightly, Xu Feng smiled lightly: "Rourou, remember." The smarter a person is, the more ideas he has and the more suspicious he is. When you want to mislead him, you just need to give him a 'possibility', and he will naturally find a suitable reason to convince himself to believe it. Of course, this method may not work all the time, but if it is only used to delay time, it is perfectly fine. ”
Xu Rourou nodded lightly when she heard this, and a thoughtful look appeared on her face.
"Okay!" Raising his hand and touching her head, Xu Feng looked out the window, chuckled again, and said, "Next, we can have a few more hours." Now, let's get some sleep. Otherwise, in a while, we'll be busy!"
