Chapter 104: The One Who Guards the Secret
"These two people should have fought with each other first, but they did not kill each other, or rather, they had some scruples about each other, but then they were attacked by brute beasts, but this is not the cause of their deaths, I guess they were killed by a sudden attack by others after fighting with brute beasts, and they were seriously injured! And the murderer was very cunning, so that they were defenseless, and they did not even leave obvious traces......"
"It doesn't seem necessary for the murderer to do this!" Yang Qi's face was dark, and although he roughly agreed with Lin Yan's analysis, this point made him incomprehensible.
"It stands to reason that there is really no need to be so cautious in a place like this, so I am also puzzled!"
"Could it be that they didn't expect the murderer to kill them at all?" Mu Dailin suddenly guessed.
"It's entirely possible!" Lin Yan and Yang Qi woke up from a dream at the same time.
A picture also flashed in Lin Yan's mind: "These two people have been seriously injured, and suddenly a person who they are familiar with each other has appeared, but this person has brazenly attacked under their unexpected circumstances......"
Yang Qi also guessed: "To be able to make the murderer like this, it must be that these two guys have discovered some secret, and the murderer actually just wants to kill him!"
"That's good!" Lin Yan nodded, "This is also the main reason why the two of them are fighting each other, because they must have discovered something before, and their discovery is not trivial!"
"Then the cold aura on their bodies ......"
"It wasn't left by the murderers, they must have entered some place full of cold air and came here! And that's where they discovered some kind of secret! Maybe it's not far away!"
"Then should we go over and have a look?" After listening to Lin Yan's analysis and judgment, Yang Qi was obviously a little moved. After all, the temptation of "Secret" is not small, and the purpose of his venture into the Cliff Blessed Land is not just for points.
"Of course I'm going, and I'm going to do it immediately, if it's too late, I might not get anything!" Mu Dailin looked even more anxious, and for some reason, she became more and more bold.
The two of them didn't care about the possible danger, and at the same time seemed quite expectant.
"Then without further ado!" Lin Yan nodded, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, since Yang Qi and Mu Dailin both wanted to go and see, then there was no reason for him not to intervene.
Half an hour later, the three of them walked dozens of miles, and a mountain wall gradually emerged.
The mountain wall is dozens of feet high, and it is completely made of hard granite, as if it has been cut by a knife and axe, and lies in front of it.
However, the mountain wall is not very long, not like a mountain range, but more like a huge boulder embedded in the vast forest.
"There is such a huge stone wall here! it's magnificent!" Mu Dailin couldn't help but sigh.
"If I didn't guess wrong, it should be here!" Yang Qi was obviously more concerned about the secret.
"Yes, there's a chill in the air here, and it seems to be coming from somewhere in the stone wall. Lin Yan also nodded, and at the same time reminded the two, "But we have to look at the situation first, because there should already be people here." ”
Then, the three of them cautiously looked around.
Before he got out of the dense forest and approached the stone wall, at this time, a sense of ominousness came to his heart!
Lin Yan suddenly stopped, feeling as if there was a sharp gaze staring behind him, he turned around suddenly, and a black shadow flashed!
"Be careful!"
Mu Dailin and Yang Qi also suddenly turned around and searched around!
"What's going on?" Mu Dailin's nerves were highly tense.
"Someone is peeping in secret, we have to pay attention!" Without Lin Yan answering, Yang Qi said for him.
"Yes! A dark shadow just flickered away! I can't even be sure if it's a human or a brute!"
Lin Yan frowned, his face became solemn, he didn't see the other party's figure clearly just now, it can be seen that the other party's speed is extremely fast, which makes him feel a chill in his heart!
"It seems that there are ghosts in this place!" Although his nerves were tense, Yang Qi was not frightened by this, but instead approached the direction of the stone wall again.
Since you have worked hard to come here, how can you give up easily!
Lin Yan was also thinking the same way, and even Mu Dailin had no intention of backing down.
But he didn't go far, and he found another corpse!
"It's from the Jin family!"
Mu Dailin immediately recognized her identity from the clothes on the corpse.
Yang Qi was no stranger to the Jin family, he quickly approached, and when he tried to check the face of the deceased, Lin Yan suddenly stopped him.
"Beware of deception!"
Then he carefully flicked the corpse with his long sword, which was also because he was worried that there would be toxins on the corpse, and once someone touched it, the consequences would be unpredictable, which was also the experience accumulated in his previous life.
Seeing the face of the deceased clearly, Lin Yan and Mu Dailin both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, because it was not that Jin did not change.
Three bodies have been found, and all of them are supposed to be related to some secret, and things are getting more and more confusing, and there is a terrifying and strange atmosphere, which makes the hearts of all three people a little heavy.
"Why did this person die? Is it related to the black shadow just now?" After a moment, Mu Dailin asked, she looked at Lin Yan and Yang Qi, hoping to get a definite answer from them.
"I'm not sure, but I definitely can't get rid of it!" Yang Qi shook his head.
"This person may not have died here at all!" Lin Yan suddenly made a bold guess.
Yang Qi and Mu Dailin looked at him suspiciously, he didn't explain, but continued: "This is someone who is suspicious, and its purpose should be to stop us or scare us!"
"How so!"
"There is no cold aura on the corpse, that is to say, our opponent ignored this point, so I judge that this Jin family should have died elsewhere, and then the corpse was deliberately placed here to increase the horror effect. ”
After Lin Yan finished speaking, both of them nodded, and the atmosphere was no longer as disturbing as it was just now.
But as soon as he took a few steps forward, he saw Lin Yan suddenly move, and the long sword in his hand shot out, roaring towards a big tree in front of him!
Lin Yangqi and Mu Dailin were both taken aback by this sudden scene! But then the two of them heard a bang, and the big tree was cut off at the waist, and immediately after, a black shadow flashed out from behind the tree!
The three of them looked at each other, and this person was dressed in gray, about eighteen years old, and he was a man, but he was quite faced, and a pair of eagle-like eyes were also staring at the three of them.
"Who are you?" Lin Yan stood with his sword in his hand, and while shouting, he was ready to attack this person at any time!
"How did you find me, and who are you?" the other man did not answer, and the sword was already clenched in one hand, and he was in the mood for war.
"It seems that this person is very likely to be the murderer!" Seeing that this person had no intention of cooperating, Yang Qi held the black knife in his hand and locked his eyes on the other party, but he didn't do it immediately, but first asked Lin Yan what he meant, "Do you want to take this person down?"
"Wait a minute!" Lin Yan then smiled coldly at the man, "You must think that your concealment methods are very clever, in fact, I have already noticed you, just now I just wanted you to relax your vigilance, but now you can no longer hide, the three of us can easily kill you, if you don't believe it, you can try!"
"What exactly do you want to say?" The man was slightly stunned, realizing that what Lin Yan said was not false, but he also did not feel a strong killing intent from Lin Yan, so he also wanted to test Lin Yan's intentions.
"Tell me, why are you secretly staring at us here!" Lin Yan went straight to the point.
"No comment!" the young man in gray refused without hesitation, his attitude very stiff.
"It seems that you are not enlightened at all!" Lin Yan's face became colder and colder, "Since this is the case, then I have to trouble a little!"
As he spoke, he made a brazen move!
Without his signal, Yang Qi and Mu Dailin also attacked the gray-clothed young man from two other directions at the same time.
The gray-clothed young man was not a weak hand, he had reached the ninth level of condensation, but in the face of Lin Yan and Yang Qi joining forces, he was obviously unable to do so.
In addition, Mu Dailin is also a ninth-level martial artist of condensation, even if she doesn't have to go all out, it is enough to block the route of the gray-clothed man's escape.
Soon, the man in gray was injured by Yang Qi's sword qi, and Lin Yan also stabbed him in the arm with a sword, causing him to lose his combat effectiveness.
"Now it's time for you to cooperate!" Lin Yan pressed his sword against the neck of the gray-clothed young man, his tone was full of threat, as long as this guy made a slight move, I am afraid there would be only one result.
The gray-clothed young man just snorted coldly, "What kind of ability is it to bully more and less, if it is one-on-one, none of you are my opponent." ”
"It seems that you haven't recognized your situation yet!" Lin Yan looked disdainful, let alone angered by the other party.
"I think, just kill him with a knife!" Yang Qi was obviously impatient.
Lin Yan smiled at the gray-clothed young man, "Since you don't listen to my kind words and persuasions, then I have no choice but to hand you over to him." ”
His meaning is obvious, that is, he intends to let Yang Qi kill this guy with a knife.
The gray-clothed young man's face changed, but he was still very stiff-mouthed, "Even if you want to kill me, I won't say anything, and you don't have to bother in vain!"
"Bastard!" Yang Qi was immediately furious, and he was about to swing his knife immediately.
"Wait!" Lin Yan stopped Yang Qi again, because he suddenly realized that the young man in gray was by no means an ordinary person, or not a person who participated in the township test at all, but had another purpose.
He even felt that the young man in gray might have been sent to the Cliff Secret Realm by a certain organization in order to complete a secret mission, this person was definitely not the only one, there should be companions, and he had undergone strict training and would not confess easily.
If it was just an ordinary family child who participated in the township test, it would never be possible to refuse to speak when facing death.
Yang Qi and Mu Dailin didn't think of this layer at all, this was because of the limitation of their vision, Lin Yan had never seen any winds and waves in his previous life, and he had personally experienced this situation several times, and he noticed that this person was quite mysterious, and he didn't look like an ordinary contestant, so he immediately thought of this.
"You must have a secret mission with you, you must not have completed it yet, and if you die now, you will have no chance to complete the mission, am I right?"
The young man in gray was startled, "How do you know?"
Even Yang Qi and Mu Dailin were surprised at the moment, and their eyes were also focused on the gray-clothed young man, and at the same time, they also looked at Lin Yan from time to time, expecting him to make some more amazing discoveries.
"You are not qualified to ask questions, you can only have a chance of life if you answer my questions honestly, otherwise I will make your life worse than death!
Lin Yan's tone became more and more eerie and terrifying, and he had already begun to release the true fire! He knew that against this kind of person, ordinary coercion and temptation were useless, and extremely cruel means had to be used to be effective.
"Tell you, my patience is limited!" he threatened again.
Immediately felt a scorching fire rushing towards his face, and the gray-clothed young man was shocked! He looked at Lin Yan in horror, "Wait......
In the face of such a terrifying "ghost fire", the gray-clothed young man's psychological defense line suddenly collapsed, and he confessed that he came from a secret organization, but it was not to deal with Lin Yan and the others, but to protect a secret here and prevent those who participated in the township test from entering the depths of the cliff blessed land.
In addition, they also got the news that there was another secret organization and came to the Cliff Blessed Land in a big way, and even if they released the news before, it attracted many families from other cities to come here.
As for what the secret was, the gray-clothed young man himself didn't know at all, and Lin Yan also understood that it was indeed impossible for a little minion like this to know too many secrets.
Knowing the general identity and intentions of the other party, Lin Yan realized that the secret of the Cliff Blessed Land must be more amazing than what Granny Qi and Jin Buchang said, and he was already involved in it.
Not only Lin Yan, but also Yang Qi and Mu Dailin were also taken aback when they heard this, because things were far beyond their imagination.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Yan asked again, "Is there a secret around here that you need to guard?"
The young man in gray was stunned again, "How did you guess?"
He didn't expect that Lin Yan would be able to guess this, he had deliberately avoided talking about this place before, and naturally hoped that Lin Yan would ignore this.
Lin Yan just smiled faintly, "If there are no secrets here that you need to guard, then why are you secretly spying on us here!"
Yang Qi and Mu Dailin also nodded secretly.
"Yes, there are secrets here, but I don't know what they are, and I'm just in charge of guarding this place and trying to keep anyone else out of here. ”
"We've met two corpses before, and one here, did you kill all three of them?"
"No!" the gray-clothed young man denied, "Actually, before you came here, there were already two groups of people here, the two who died in front were the first batch, and the latter group was even more numerous. ”
"Oh?" Lin Yan, Yang Qi, and Mu Dailin were all taken aback, and Yang Qi couldn't help but ask, "Then do you know who killed them?"
"It's the second group, and there's a master among them, and I can't stop them from going. ”
"What's the matter with this third corpse?" Mu Dailin also said eagerly.
"I killed him, and I put his body here to make you feel terrified and retreat. The young man in gray replied truthfully.
"This third corpse should have been arranged here by the people of the Jin family before his death, and guarded here, if he found that someone else was coming, he would notify them immediately...... If I'm not mistaken, that Jin Wucheng is their leader, maybe Jin Buchang is also among them. ”
Lin Yan had roughly guessed that the second batch of people who arrived was the Jin family's team.
"What you say makes a lot of sense!" Mu Dailin agreed.
Yang Qi looked at the gray-clothed young man again, "How many of them are there?"
"Twelve in all!" but the gray-clad young man immediately corrected, "and now there are only eleven people. ”
"Then how many of you have been sent to the Cliff Blessed Land?" Lin Yan asked.
"I don't know, I don't even know who they are!" "The gray-clothed young man looked a little strange, and said, "You don't have to doubt me, in fact, except for my superiors, I have never seen anyone else in the organization. ”
"It seems that your organization is quite mysterious, and it has never been exposed, and no one even knows about your existence...... I don't know how you did it, and why you keep the secrets here, didn't your organization want to get them!"
Lin Yan didn't suspect the gray-clothed young man, because this situation was very normal, and of course, he was more interested in secrets at the moment.
"I obviously can't answer this question!" the gray-clothed young man rolled his eyes, looked at Lin Yan and smiled, "Are you planning to go ahead and have a look, but I remind you that there are far more people in that group than you." ”
"You still care about yourself!" Yang Qi's face was quite displeased, of course, he also understood that there were eleven people in the Jin family's team, and it was indeed not something that the three of them could deal with.
Then he looked at Lin Yan again, "Brother Lin, I estimate that this place can be guarded by this person, it must be unusual, should we ......?"
"At least you should go over and have a look!" Lin Yan said without thinking, he didn't feel anything worried about because of the Jin family's team.
"I also agree!" Mu Dailin seemed to have a lot of confidence in Lin Yan, because she hadn't forgotten that before entering the Cliff Blessed Land, Jin Wucheng suffered a lot in front of Lin Yan.
"Since you don't listen to my warning, then I don't want to go on an adventure with you, and shouldn't you let me go!" Seeing that Lin Yan and the three of them were eager to try one by one, the gray-clothed young man immediately spoke.
"Looking at your very cooperative face, I naturally won't be difficult for you!But I think you are quite valuable to us, so ......" Lin Yan naturally couldn't let this person go easily, and at the same time, he didn't plan to get rid of him, so he had a plan.
Then, I saw the light and shadow at the center of his eyebrows, and the next moment, a mysterious sigil ingested into the sea of consciousness of the gray-clothed young man.
"What have you done to me?" the young man in gray was horrified, because he had no idea what was happening, but he clearly felt that a breathtaking force had imprisoned his soul!
In fact, this is naturally the means that Lin Yan used to control him, which is exactly the same as the way to control Lin Laishun.
Mu Dailin and Yang Qi on the side were also shocked, and at the same time, they also refreshed their cognition of Lin Yan!
