Chapter 42 The wall has ears
Hearing that the second elder was actually going to kill him, Lin Shulai's face was ugly, and he asked, "Why did he kill me?"
"The Second Elder didn't tell me. Qiu Likuan replied.
Lin Shulai sighed in his heart, he didn't expect the second elder to really kill him, but Steward Qiu didn't seem to know the reason.
"What about my two subordinates?" Lin Shulai continued to ask.
"I took advantage of their unpreparedness to sneak attack, but I didn't expect those two people to be strong, and they even launched a resistance, but they were too seriously injured and were finally killed by me. ”
Lin Shulai angrily punched Steward Qiu in the face, and immediately smashed his nosebleed, but he instantly came to his senses.
"Have you been to this site a long time ago, and why are you so familiar with the mechanisms here?"
"Hey, I failed. ”
When Lin Shulai heard this, he found that Steward Qiu had regained consciousness, and looked at him with a somewhat hideous face.
Suddenly, Qiu Likuan's hands grew a bone knife.
Lin Shulai took a step back vigilantly, but Steward Qiu aimed the bone knife at himself, stuck it directly in his heart, and committed suicide!
Lin Shu looked at his corpse and was silent for a while, Chu Tianran came over and patted him on the shoulder and said: "We are pitiful to each other now, we are all calculated by our own people, don't meditate here, let's go forward first, the road I came from has also touched the mechanism and has been blocked, let's save our lives, don't really fold here this time." ”
Lin Shulai nodded, and walked along the first fork in the road with Chu Tianran, but what he was most worried about now was Ye Mu, seeing that he had fallen into the ground by the trap, and he didn't know if he was still alive.
Ye Mu rubbed his itchy nose, feeling that someone was talking about him. He'd been fumbling around since he fell, it was pitch black, his phone was broken, and he figured around for a while before he remembered that he now had a new ability to start a fire.
The faint blue halo in his hand shone on the surrounding environment, and he found that the top of his head had now been sealed again, and there were many gravels scattered around, and under a pile of rubble not far away, the corpse of the Seven Elders was pressed, and Ye Mu absorbed the corpse in line with the principle that it could not be wasted, and after the golden light was active, the abrasions and bumps caused by the fall on his body were quickly healed.
Originally, the golden light had the miraculous effect of healing wounds, but the speed was relatively slow, and the results were not as immediate as they are now. It seems that absorbing corpses can not only increase strength, but also quickly resurrect with full health.
After all, the Seventh Elder was a super powerhouse, and after absorbing it, Ye Mu felt that his strength had improved by a big step, and the most obvious feeling was that the color of the flames in his hands had become more pure.
But it's still a small lump, I don't know what the use is, with its temperature can't hurt people at all, just now Ye Mu also controlled the blue fire to shoot at the wall, but found that there was no effect at all, and later found that it couldn't even burn its own clothes.
Ye Mu gave up after repeated tests to no avail, the most important thing at the moment was to get out of here, and after exploring the circle just now, he found himself in an empty space that resembled a warehouse, and there were many paths around it that could only be passed by people.
After observing a circle, Ye Mu had no clue, so he could only choose a path at random and walked in.
As he went deeper, the path narrowed and narrowed, and after a while it widened and zigzagged.
After about 10 minutes, Ye Mu found that there were three more forks in front of the path, he chose the first one, and walked for more than ten minutes, but history repeats itself.
Ye Mu walked patiently for nearly an hour, coming back and forth when he encountered 5 or 6 forks in the road, he made marks, and found that he had passed through one of them twice. Ye Mu was finally sure that he had walked into the labyrinth, and according to his calculations, it would take at least a few months to get out of this labyrinth, and he was estimated to have starved to death by then.
Just when he was at a loss, the golden light in his brain jumped twice unhurriedly.
What's the situation?
What is there here that is causing the golden light to move?
Ye Mu looked around, but didn't find any clues, he took a few steps forward, and the frequency of the golden light beating slightly accelerated.
Thinking that he was trapped in the maze, there was no way to get out for a while, so it was better to simply follow the feeling of golden light.
As the leaf curtain advanced, the golden light beat more and more intensely, and after a long twist and turn, he finally walked out of the labyrinth and came to a dark hut.
Ye Mu did not hesitate, and walked directly to the house, at this time the golden light became extremely active. He continued to walk, but after a few steps, he found that the golden light was no longer active.
Obviously, the thing that can make the golden light move is in the house.
Ye Mu searched carefully in the house, but found nothing, and suddenly, a faint sound of conversation came into his ears.
Who?
Ye Mu searched in the direction of the sound and found that there was a small hole in the wall of this room, and it was from there that the sound of conversation came from.
He slowly approached the small hole, and his eyes were another room, there were two people standing in it, although the light was dim, Ye Mu still recognized it at a glance, one of them was the second elder Ye Jinsheng.
"Brother Chu, whether our plan can succeed this time depends on the person who is arranged next to your seventh child. The second elder spoke.
"Haha, don't worry, Xiao Falcon is strong and flexible, he will definitely be able to do it! ”
Hearing this, Ye Mu already knew that the other person opposite was the five elders of the Chu family.
According to the meaning of their words, Xiao Falcon, who was killed by himself just now, was actually someone sent by the five elders. But aren't the Seven Elders in the same group as them, so why do they want to kill him?
Ye Mu was a little puzzled, but he finally understood why Xiao Falcon killed people when he saw them, it seemed that he had the intention to provoke a fight between the two sides and let them die together, but unfortunately he was bumped into by himself and ruined Xiao Falcon's plan.
"The older your seventh child gets, the more confused he becomes, just because of his grandson's little, it almost ruined our big thing, so it's better to get rid of it as soon as possible, so as not to affect us in the future. Ye Jinsheng nodded and said.
"Alas, I don't know if Chu Tianqi is still alive, Lao Qi's grandson ran to Lao Qi to add fuel and vinegar in order to fight for a woman with him, and he was humiliated by failure, Lao Qi's fool actually really took action against Chu Tianqi, I heard that the mission failed, and Chu Tianqi was nowhere to be found. ”
Ye Mu was a little stunned when he heard this, that guy from Chu Tianqi was actually killed because he was jealous of others, but the seventh elder of the Chu family couldn't want to kill him because of such a trivial matter, right?
Ye Jinsheng shook his head, "I heard that Chu Tianqi's father Chu Muzhi once offended your family's seventh brother, if it weren't for our plan this time, you seventh wouldn't think that you could push the boat down the river and kill Chu Tianqi, so as to hit Chu Muzhi." ”
"Hmph, Brother Ye, don't you know, Lao Qi is narrow-minded, if everyone wasn't dissatisfied with the main line, I wouldn't have pulled him in, just because he didn't care about the overall situation and took action against Chu Tianqi without authorization, Mr. Xiang'er was very angry. It just so happens that Chu Tianran is also here this time, we must proceed as soon as possible and keep him here, otherwise Mr. Xiang'er may go to someone else to cooperate. The Fifth Elder's tone was a little vicious.
"Yes, Ye Mu is still in training, and nothing can happen that makes the main vein suspicious. Our plan for the ruins is going well this time, and everyone who should be attracted is here. ”
"It's Lin Shulai from your family, why did you choose to get rid of him, if you let his father Ye Zhaohong come this time, wouldn't our harvest be greater? Ye Zhaohong is now the backbone of the Ye family, stationed in the south all the year round, it is difficult to find a chance to deal with him, and this ruin is just an opportunity to lure him out. The Fifth Elder asked.
Ye Jinsheng sighed, and seemed to be a little unwilling, "No way, Lin Shulai is too familiar with Ye Mu, so he must die, in case he discovers anything in the future, our plan is likely to fall short, for the sake of safety, we must kill him first!"
Ye Mu heard the two of them talk about himself and Lin Shulai, so he listened more carefully, but he didn't expect that they dealt with Lin Shulai because of themselves.
Afraid that Lin Shu will find out that leaf curtain is fake?
What exactly do they want to do with Ye Mu's identity?
Ye Mu pondered, listening to the meaning of their words, this time the ruins were indeed a trap arranged in advance, and the purpose was to lure the targets to kill them one by one!
"What you said makes sense, it's still the most important thing to be safe, our plan must not be exposed, as long as Lin Shulai is killed this time, Ye Zhaohong will definitely not be able to sit still. In the future, lure him out and find a chance to do it again!Someday they will all meet underground, hahaha!" the fifth elder laughed heartily as he said this.
"Okay, let's not talk about that, let's get the things out first, after all, there has to be something real to attract everyone's attention. Ye Jinsheng stretched out his hand to the five elders and asked for something.
"Well, this ruin has been secretly explored by us for a year, and the good things have long been taken. However, with so many people coming in this time, we can't let everyone go home empty-handed, and I've already arranged for someone to find something that they don't need to stay here, as for this thing......"
The Fifth Elder said this, and took out a transparent jar from his bosom, which contained a mass the size of a grain of rice.
At the moment when the jar was taken out, Ye Mu felt the golden light in his brain as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and he couldn't stop beating wildly.
Ye Mu carefully looked at the thing through the small hole, and found that it emitted a faint golden light, which was actually very similar to the golden light in his head, but the size was different.
Second Elder Ye looked at the jar and squinted at the small ball of light inside, "Since we found this thing in the ruins, we have been researching it, but unfortunately the results of the experiment have proved that it is completely useless. ”
"Yes, if it weren't for its uselessness, we wouldn't be willing to take it out, so let's put it here as a treasure of this ruin. ”
Ye Jinsheng sneered, looked at the regretful expression of the fifth elder and said, "Chu Lao Wu, look at your unproductive energy, it is exactly the same as when you were young, isn't it just a useless thing, don't feel distressed." ”
