Chapter 493: Gaining Trust
Ling Feng lifted him to the stone where he landed and let go of his hand, and the officer was just about to touch the short knife on his waist, but a flying knife with a hint of cold air came to his neck. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"If you dare to play any tricks with me, I'll throw you down now." Ling Feng said coldly.
The officer immediately realized that the person in front of him was a master, and with his own skills, he would never be able to deal with him, so he nodded unwillingly, and said: "My name is Wu Fan, I am an officer under General Yun, and I was ordered to walk with Hua Longfei this time, with the intention of protecting him, he is the personal disciple of the third elder Zhao Fang, he just told a few of us that there is something in the lake, and it is inconvenient for people to go down, so he asked us to bring troops here to dig a diversion ditch." ”
"What did Hua Longfei tell you before?" Ling Feng asked, he must now ask everything he can ask clearly, this officer is obviously able to directly contact Hua Longfei, if he doesn't figure out the details of this Wu Fan, it will be easy to show his feet.
"We have been marching before, he and the other three adults, as well as Lord Zhao, rarely talk to us, we are only responsible for some daily life of the army, and it is only recently that his words have gradually increased." Wu Fan said.
"What did he tell you lately?" Lingfeng Road.
He said...... "The officer hesitated, and this man asked him three questions and four questions, is it a spy of an enemy country?"
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt a cold on his neck, and a stream of heat flowed out of the broken skin, as well as the cold air on the flying knife, drilling straight into his meridians.
Wu Fandeng was shocked in his heart and said, "If you kill me, the Heavenly Jade Empire will not let you go." He had vaguely guessed that this person should be a spy from the enemy country who broke into Tianyu, as a soldier, Wu Fan was naturally also a soldier, and he would rather die than reveal half a sentence about the secrets of the empire.
Besides, a small person like him has no secrets to speak of, and it is impossible for him to know those important things.
"The Jade Empire will let me go or not, I will say it first, whether I let you go now or not, it depends on me, just now you have been poisoned by the soul devouring poison, this poison will slowly devour your soul, until you die in pain, you can choose to tell me, or you can choose to be silent, I count to three, if you still refuse to speak, this is where you are buried." Lingfeng put away the knife, choked his throat, lifted Wu Fan up again, and said lightly.
"One."
"Two."
Lingfeng's voice was flat, and he read slowly.
A layer of cold sweat appeared on Wu Fan's forehead, he would not doubt it at all, when this person reached three, he would immediately throw him down, he was struggling, and a voice said in his heart, Now that you say it, it is possible to save your life, not to mention, your life will end here.
It's just that Wu Fan didn't know that the voice in his heart was that Ling Feng had invaded a trace of his consciousness and did it deliberately, Wu Fan was a mortal, and he didn't know these methods of immortal cultivators at all.
"Three."
"I say, I say!" Wu Fan was short of breath and weak, and finally couldn't help Lingfeng's psychological offensive and completely compromised.
Ling Feng let him stand on the stone again and said, "Say it." ”
"He said that digging a diversion ditch is a very important matter, and we must not disclose it to anyone, not even a general, and he will reward us afterwards and let us leave the army and become people in Washington." Wu Fan said.
Ling Feng sneered and said, "This surnamed Hua really has two hits, and he will deceive you in a few words." ”
Wu Fan was puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Ling Feng shook his head and said, "It's not interesting, what else did he say?" He didn't want to say bad things about Hua Longfei to Wu Fan, maybe he could listen to it, but for a dead man, it was useless for you to say anything to him.
"He also said that later, Lord Zhao will come." Wu Fan said.
"In this army, in addition to you, how many officers are there, what are their names?" Ling Feng asked.
As soon as Wu Fan heard this, his face immediately became ugly, and his expression was completely sensed by Ling Feng in the dark, but Ling Feng was still looking at him quietly.
"This team was originally in charge of me alone, but later Huada people selected two more officers, they are called Zhang Feng and Lu Hong, these two things, they are low in front of me on weekdays, but now it is good, they actually played a majestic role in front of me." Wu Fan said very unhappily.
"What are their characteristics?" Lingfeng Road.
"The taller and thinner one is Zhang Feng, and the square-faced one is Lu Hong." Wu Fan said.
"Anything else?" Ling Feng suddenly smiled and said.
Wu Fan was suffocated, his heart instantly cooled, he had also caught many enemies, when he asked for information, he asked the last sentence, are they all, is there any?
Obviously, if the person doesn't ask anything from his mouth anymore, he'll be sent on his way.
His mind was spinning fast, thinking that all the ways could be held for a moment, however, Lingfeng was not an ordinary person, he already knew that Wu Fan had already said everything he knew, and if he asked again, it would only be a waste of time, and after a while, I was afraid that Hua Longfei would come down in person.
When Ling Feng grabbed Wu Fan's throat again, he couldn't help but sigh heavily in his heart, he was just a mortal, and now, he was going to kill Wu Fan, which was contrary to his guidelines, but now he had no choice.
Quickly took off Wu Fan's clothes, put them on his body, and glanced down, Wu Fan's body was falling rapidly, and the screams echoed in the dark space.
……
Outside the hole.
Many people looked at the pitch-black hole with frightened faces, and the hot wind inside was still blowing out and blowing on their faces, hot, but it didn't make these people feel comfortable, but they involuntarily retreated backwards.
They were afraid that a demon would suddenly come out of the cave and pull them down as well.
And that Hua Longfei was already standing at the entrance of the cave with a gloomy face, frowning, looking at the entrance of the cave, the people here suddenly stopped working, and there was an exclamation, which immediately attracted his attention, and when he arrived here, many people surrounded him and told him what happened before.
He naturally believes that there are any so-called evil ghosts in this cave, but those ordinary soldiers are different, now a soldier, and Wu Fan fell into the cave, life and death are unknown, the soldiers' morale in this section is completely chaotic, he has to find a way to stabilize the army's morale first.
After using his spiritual sense, he probed again, and made sure that there was no sign of overlap in the cave, Hua Longfei finally turned around, his face was very heavy, and he walked to a high place, "Everyone, such a tragedy happened today, it was my Hua Longfei who did not manage it well, these two dead brothers, I will definitely find a way to find their bodies, and bury them thickly, as well as their families, and in the future, they will be taken care of by my Washington government, but the project here does not have to continue, please go back and continue to work, all the soldiers in your section, I will reward fifty taels of silver! ”
I have to have to have a set of calculations for Hua Longfei to stabilize the army, and as soon as he said this, the wavering military spirit immediately stabilized a lot.
Sometimes, money can solve everything.
The soldiers returned to their original positions one after another, and resumed their work, as if they were more motivated.
Suddenly, from the entrance of the cave, there were several exclamations, and quickly, a large crowd of people gathered around, and they saw a man covered in blood, whose face was red with blood, crawling out of the cave.
At this moment, the soldiers could no longer remain calm, and they did not know who shouted: "Ghost! ”
Immediately, there was a chain reaction, and all the soldiers retreated in unison, looking at the one who was crawling forward with great horror like a monster, and no one went up to pull him.
Hua Longfei heard the movement, and immediately rushed to the entrance of the cave, pulled the man up, wiped the blood on his face, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Wu Fan? You're not dead? ”
Wu Fan fell on Hua Longfei all of a sudden, gasped for breath, and said, "Hua, Lord Hua, I, I'm not dead yet." ”
Hua Longfei looked at Wu Fan, his eyes flickering, "Tell everyone quickly, what's the situation below?" "The first thing he thought about was not to treat Wu Fan's injuries, but to let him completely stabilize the morale of the army first.
Lingfeng (Wu Fan) sneered in his heart, he had already seen through Hua Longfei's intentions, but he pretended not to know, nodded again and again, and said: "There are some raised stones below, all the way down, when I fell, I don't know how many times I was hit, and finally got stuck on a stone, before I stopped, I only had one thought, that is, to survive, and I kept climbing up, I didn't think that I Wu Fan could see the light of day again." ”
Speaking of this, Wu Fan was very excited, and tears almost fell.
Ling Feng's performance not only failed to win the sympathy of those soldiers, but made them suspicious.
"Are you demonized? Climb up and want to take everyone's life? ”
"We didn't fall for you so easily......"
Everyone scolded him, completely treating Wu Fan as a demon, and some even proposed to throw him into the hole again.
Wu Fan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw this group of people like this.
Hua Longfei's eyes swept over the crowd coldly, and said: "I have checked just now, he is Wu Fan, not some evil ghost, Wu Fan is good to you on weekdays, but now that he is injured, you are still falling into the well, don't you let your chief chill?" ”
Those soldiers immediately stopped scolding, Hua Longfei's words, they naturally believed it, at this time, many soldiers showed shame on their faces, but they did not open their mouths to apologize.
"Wu Fan, tell them, are there any ghosts down there?" Hua Long Fei said with a cold face.
Wu Fan smiled bitterly and said, "Where is there any ghost down there, only hard stones, if any of you falls, the end will not be much stronger than mine." ”
"Did you hear that?" Hua Long Feidao, lifted Wu Fan with one hand, flickered a few times, and disappeared in front of the soldiers.
Taking Wu Fan back to the tent, Hua Longfei took a pill to heal the wound and gave it to Wu Fan, and the injuries on Wu Fan's body immediately began to recover, and after only a while, the wound was almost healed.
The miraculous effect of the elixir made Wu Fan, who was shocked, opened his mouth wide, his eyes widened, and he touched the wounds on his head and face, "Master Hua, this ......"
Hua Longfei smiled faintly, but his eyes gradually became cold, what he gave Wu Fan just now was a rejuvenation pill, in the eyes of immortal cultivators, it was not a precious pill, but for mortals, being able to take one in a lifetime was already considered a great virtue.
The reason why Hua Longfei used the pill to save Wu Fei was because he was very suspicious that the Wu Fan in front of him was the same Wu Fan before, when he probed, he didn't find any signs of life at all, but this Wu Fan suddenly got up from the hole, which is enough to show that there must be something wrong with this.
"Wu Fan, what did you encounter in that cave?" Hua Longfei said suddenly.
Wu Fan's face was blank, "Master Hua, what do you mean by this?" There's only a stone down there. ”
"Nothing but stones?" Hua Longfei stared straight at Wu Fan, and observed him vividly with his spiritual sense, but did not find anything unusual, the Wu Fan in front of him, even the breath, was so similar to the previous Wu Fan.
"Master Hua, did you listen to the words of those soldiers outside and believe that there are ghosts down there?" Wu Fan said.
"You're questioning me?" Hua Longfei's face flashed with anger, and he said sharply, being asked by a small mortal, anger rose in his heart.
Wu Fan was startled and fell to the ground, and a black stone fell from his clothes, but he didn't notice it, "Adult, villain doesn't mean that." Wu Fan said in a panic.
Hua Longfei immediately found the black stone that fell to the ground, stared at the stone, and walked over slowly, Wu Fan thought that Hua Longfei was going to punish him, so his whole body trembled in fright and shrank back.
Hua Longfei reached out and picked up the black stone, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, "Where did you get this stone?" ”
Wu Fan saw that Hua Longfei was just picking up stones and didn't teach him a lesson, so he breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the stone in Hua Longfei's hand, frowned, thought about it, and said: "Master Huihua, I don't know, it may be that when I fell, the stone was stuck in my clothes." ”
"Are you sure?" Hualong Flying Road.
Wu Fan nodded again and again, and said, "Well, I never have a stone on me, this must have been brought up from that hole." ”
"No wonder." Hua Longfei turned around and sat on the chair, threw the stone on the table, and his expression eased a lot.
Wu Fan didn't know what Hua Longfei meant just now, "Hua Daren? ”
"I'm wrong about you." Hua Longfei suddenly smiled and said, "This stone is a black dark stone, which can isolate spiritual consciousness, that is to say, if there is such a stone in that cave, I will not be able to detect you." ”
Wu Fan nodded as if he didn't understand, and said, "My lord, I must be Wu Fan." ”
"I didn't say you weren't." Hua Long Fei said, "Wu Fan, I also told you before, this matter is very important, and no news is allowed to be revealed, so sometimes, we all need to be very cautious, I was a little strict just now, don't take it to heart." ”
Hua Longfei has some things, and he still needs Wu Fan to help him, so he must stabilize him first.
Wu Fan looked indifferent and said, "Where is this nonsense, it is my Wu Fan's honor to be able to serve you." ”
Hua Longfei smiled faintly and said, "You go down first." ”
Wu Fan nodded and said, "Yes, my lord." ”
Outside the tent, Lingfeng (Wu Fan) patted the dust on his body and looked up at the sun overhead.
The sun is thick, just right, and the grass is green.
Everything looks so good.
However, the mood of the youth is a little low.
In the play just now, Ling Feng acted perfectly, without the slightest flaw exposed, the injuries on his body were deliberately made by him, and the black stone was bought by Qingfeng in the stone shop, and Yuwen decided that each of the three of them would have a copy.
Its function, as Hua Longfei said, can isolate the detection of spiritual sense, and with a movement of the spirit, it came in handy just now, and it easily blinded Hua Longfei.
However, Ling Feng didn't believe it, Hua Longfei would easily believe him, but he was extremely sure, then Hua Longfei would definitely not be idle to go to the cave to find out if there were really a lot of black dark stones inside.
This kind of stone is not worth much at all, and at the moment, the progress of the project is the key.
With a sigh, Ling Feng thought of that Wu Fan again, if he hadn't met him, he might have been able to live a little longer, and after all, during this time, he had already killed two mortals.
Iniquity accumulates in this way.
Ahead, the soldiers were working hard, unbeknownst to them, and when the project was over, they would be buried in this grassy beach with the soil they had dug up.
Glancing at them, Ling Feng took a step and walked towards the third team where Yu Wenzhu and Qing Feng were.
On the way, he met Zhang Feng and Lu Hong, and greeted them separately, and they didn't find anything unusual about Wu Fan now, but the wound on his face that had not fully recovered attracted their attention, and he asked with great concern, Ling Feng replied with a smile and said goodbye to them.
Walking quickly to the section of the ditch under construction in the center, Lingfeng looked towards Qingfeng and Yuwen who were working hard, the two of them seemed to have senses, and looked towards Lingfeng, the three of them met their eyes, flickering, and after a while, they retracted their gaze at the same time.
Yuwen Jue and Qingfeng had already recognized it, and Lingfeng had already incarnated as their chief.
"Senior Brother Lingfeng really has a way, and this will become our chief." Yuwen said to the public.
"He'd better not show any of his feet." Qingfeng was worried, and Ling Feng accidentally revealed his identity because of this.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Lingfeng has always been silent." Yuwen resolutely picked up the pickaxe fiercely, dug into the sand, and lifted the pickaxe frame hard, raising a large piece of wet soil, "Now he has an easy fall, he doesn't have to work." ”
"If you think you can do better than him, you will be the leader." The breeze said coldly.
Yuwen decided to shave another pickaxe and said, "This kind of thing, let's do it with the two of you, I just have to listen to the order." ”
