After a slight pause, Xu Xingkong, who did not get a response, suppressed the apprehension in his heart and continued:

"What are the rules you said to Qi Wanfu? These rules are the laws of our people?"

"It's not a law, strictly speaking, we don't have a law in the usual sense, this can only be regarded as a recognized consultation mechanism, Yushan Yuzhai as the leader of Pengcheng, has the responsibility to protect the smooth operation of these mechanisms, generally speaking, the rules will be a little different in various places, but in general, the rules in various places are based on the concept of open consultation and reasonableness. ”

"Then what if there is no sect to support you?"

“”

Lin Xiaofeng was silent again, there is no need to ask this kind of thing, this world has never been fair, and the cultivation circle is a place where the rules of the jungle are admired, and in this circle, the cruel competition mechanism will never be changed in order to protect the so-called fairness, so it is conceivable what will happen to those lonely people when they have a dispute with the gate faction.

Although he knew it, Xu Xingkong still asked more unwillingly: "Of course, this maintains the original order, but doesn't this reduce a lot of cohesion and stifle the growth of new forces." ”

Lin Xiaofeng glanced at Xu Xingkong deeply and said coldly: "Then let the old order decay, one day, there will be a new order to replace it!"

Xu Xingkong looked at Lin Xiaofeng in surprise, he really couldn't imagine that as a representative figure of the vested interest class, Lin Xiaofeng's true thoughts would be so radical and bold, which was completely opposite to her cold appearance, and the contradiction caused by this extremely strong contrast made Xu Xingkong's heart shake.

However, this topic is obviously a bit too heavy, and this kind of topic is purely a mouthpiece, and it has no practical significance, Xu Xingkong shook his head slightly and threw this out of his mind.

"What's next?"

Xu Xingkong was purely speechless, but Lin Xiaofeng replied very seriously:

"Of course, I'm following the Kraken's retreat route to explore, so you can't ignore this matter, right?"

"Didn't you say that there were reinforcements outside, and would they not be able to get out of these caves because of this?"

"It's also possible. So it's even more important to find out, in fact, I really want to find Xuan Zhen and find out why he suddenly changed his mind. ”

"You may be able to ask Xiao Wenxuan about this. ”

Lin Xiaofeng glanced at Xu Xingkong with disdain, Xiao Wenxuan was willing to tell the truth. However, after thinking about it carefully, Xu Xingkong's construction seems to have another meaning, and Lin Xiaofeng understood it after thinking about it for a while.

"Xiao Wenxuan. ”

Lin Xiaofeng suddenly opened his mouth and made everyone who was whispering immediately shut up, and the cave instantly fell silent, and everyone's eyes quickly converged on Lin Xiaofeng's face.

"Uncle Lin. What's wrong with you?"

Lin Xiaofeng glanced at everyone, and from everyone's faces, Lin Xiaofeng got what he wanted, in fact, the reason why Xu Xingkong asked Lin Xiaofeng about Xiao Wenxuan was to let Lin Xiaofeng show her attitude towards this matter, if Lin Xiaofeng had been ignoring it, it would make everyone suspicious, and now Lin Xiaofeng asked Xiao Wenxuan in front of everyone, and everyone was a little relieved under their curiosity.

"What is your relationship with the Qi family?"

Lin Xiaofeng's question was very sharp, but Xiao Wenxuan smiled unhurriedly and smiled:

"I'm a fellow villager with Qi Laibao, it's the first time I've seen someone from the Qi family, and I don't have a direct stake in him other than that. Oh no, there's still something powerful about it. ”

"Oh?

Xiao Wenxuan pursed his lips and smiled:

"As soon as Qi Laibao dies, the Lai family will definitely come to us to inquire and confront us, I originally planned to return to the mountain gate after exploring the Leiyin Cave, so I will stay in Pengcheng for a while, and I have to explain to the master, the trouble is dead, hehe"

Everyone couldn't help but smile when they heard this, Lin Xiaofeng frowned slightly, nodded noncommittally and asked:

"Have you seen or known Xuan Zhen before today?"

"I don't know. But I've heard of this guy, among the many krakens in the South China Sea, Xuan Zhen is a demon clan with outstanding abilities, especially his unpredictable doppelganger technique, which was prepared for me by the door. Because I am going to travel to Nanyue, I have learned a little about the demon clan with outstanding abilities in Nanyue. ”

Lin Xiaofeng still nodded noncommittally, and continued to ask in a light tone:

"Then why did you choose to exchange Qi Laibao at that time? Do you really believe that Xuan Zhen will not attack you?"

Xiao Wenxuan nodded seriously and said:

"Yes, according to my understanding, Xuan Zhen is a relatively proud demon clan, since he is proud. Then he must love face, as long as he can get out safely under the circumstances, there should be no need to break his promise and hurt me, but I don't know why things suddenly became like that. As for why I was willing to exchange Qi Laibao, the reason I said at the time was what I really thought in my heart. ”

After Xiao Wenxuan finished speaking, a pair of clear eyes looked at Lin Xiaofeng without dodging, his response was neither arrogant nor humble, neither lost the face of Taishan Jade Void Cave, nor did it make Lin Xiaofeng feel unhappy, he really deserved to be a famous disciple.

What's more, his explanation sounded completely reasonable, and he didn't see anything wrong with it at all.

Of course, Xu Xingkong is an exception, because he is very sure that Xiao Wenxuan is the culprit who killed Qi Laibao, with such a fixed opinion, Xu Xingkong can naturally find some clues from Xiao Wenxuan's answer.

Seeing Xiao Wenxuan looking at him, Lin Xiaofeng paused and asked casually:

"Then why do you think Xuan Zhen changed his mind at that time?"

"I don't know about this, to be honest, I've always been weak in guessing people's hearts, hehe"

Lin Xiaofeng pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, waved his hand and said:

"Okay, so let's do it, everyone's rested, right? ”

It was still Lin Xiaofeng who led the team in front, and behind the Zeolite Dao Human Palace, the two groups of people chased all the way along the path of the Kraken's retreat.

The krakens are familiar with the road, and they are in a hurry to escape, the speed is definitely not comparable to Lin Xiaofeng and them, and Lin Xiaofeng and the others are already late, and they need to spend time looking for the path, so it is naturally impossible to catch up with those escaping krakens. Lin Xiaofeng's wish to catch Xuan Zhen is, of course, impossible to come true.

After walking in the complex underwater cave for about an hour, Xu Xingkong had to sigh that the area of this thunder sound cave was really amazing, I really didn't know how many krakens occupied this place as a lair at that time, and what was even more strange was that such a painstaking treasure land for krakens was so abandoned. It's a little abnormal to think about it.

Just when Xu Xingkong began to worry that he had walked too far to rush back to the starting point at dinner time, a relatively fresh breath of sea water suddenly came from the end of his nose, and then he paid attention to the movements of the Yuan Spirit, and sure enough, he found that the Yuan Spirit in the cave had become a little more active.

Finally, the group came to a slightly larger cave. At the top of the cave is a pool full of water, about a few hundred square meters in size, the water does not know how deep, and the calm water sparkles in the light.

Liang Yaokun walked to the edge of the pool, stretched the waterproof flashlight into the water and shone it downward, the pool seemed to be very deep, and the flashlight could not shine at all, but from the traces on the edge of the pool. Those krakens obviously ran away from here, but this road was very suitable for krakens, but it blocked the footsteps of Lin Xiaofeng and the others.

As demon hunters, of course they have the ability to act underwater, not to mention that there is a master of the water system present, but after all, the water is the home of the kraken, and the terrain here is more familiar with the kraken, and on land Lin Xiaofeng and others can beat all the krakens. But in the water, I'm afraid it's going to be the other way around.

Lin Xiaofeng squatted on the edge of the pool and observed for a while, straightened up and swept the broken hair that hung down to his mouth, and ordered lightly:

"Liang Yaokun, you are responsible for blowing up this place. Block this entrance, as long as you make sure that you can't dig it up for three days. ”

Liang Yaokun showed an excited look, nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, Uncle Lin." ”

Lin Xiaofeng looked at Zeolite Dao again: "Trouble Dao Master to help, I'll go around to confirm the situation and see if there are any other channels or fish that have slipped through the net." ”

Zeolite Daoist nodded in response. Jian Yiyi, who was a little uneasy, said: "Why don't you bring a few more people?"

"No, just let him follow me. ”

Lin Xiaofeng pointed at Xu Xingkong, turned his head and turned away, Xu Xingkong hurriedly followed, and soon the figures of the two disappeared in the eyes of everyone, the matter has come to this, and the people who stayed didn't think much about it, and immediately began to survey the environment, preparing to blow up this place completely.

Lin Xiaofeng took Xu Xingkong and walked back for a while before he saw a fork in the road, turned into the fork in the road and walked for a while to the end, this is also a bone road, and the space is narrow, and there is no trace of human activity, it is obvious that the krakens have not been here.

Lin Xiaofeng turned around, Xu Xingkong looked at Lin Xiaofeng with a smile, and then cautiously turned his head to look back, and then took out a fist-sized stone from his pocket and handed it to Lin Xiaofeng like a treasure.

"This is it. ”

Lin Xiaofeng suspiciously stretched out his hand to take the stone, this stone has sharp edges and corners, and the fractures are all fresh, which is completely in line with Xu Xingkong's previous description of the source of the stone.

"The baby you just said is in here?"

"Well, it's a thumb-sized crystal, and there are blue-purple electric rays swimming in it, as if it were alive. ”

Xu Xingkong said excitedly, completely a child expecting the teacher's praise.

Lin Xiaofeng sensed it carefully, and then the expression on her face became stern, and after a while, a bright blue light suddenly lit up in her hand, these lights were not strong, but they had a strong penetrating power, and the stones in her palms were reflected transparently, and the original black stone seemed to have become a sapphire with decent transparency, which looked very beautiful.

However, this beautiful sapphire was quickly destroyed, and many fine cracks suddenly appeared in the blue light, and the fist-sized black stone cracked silently, and the stone skin on the outside peeled off, revealing a thumb-sized, crystal-like small stone, and inside the crystal was as Xu Xingkong described, there were countless electric rays as thin as hair that kept swimming, like a group of living creatures that were alarmed.
