Chapter 42: Deathbed Words
"What the hell have they seized of you, and are you so afraid of them?"
Feng Tianyou asked with concern, what was the handle that made them so scared. It stands to reason that the family status of such a prominent family should not be low.
"It's better that you still don't know about these, in short, these tricks, coupled with their strength, are enough to justifiably kill our entire family."
The man spoke firmly, his tone now sounding more determined than ever. There he exhorted them.
I thought that this person was honest enough, but he didn't expect that when he came to this, he didn't want to say a word more.
I really can't figure out how scared this person is, no matter what they do, he just won't say more, and they really can't think of any way, and the scene fell silent.
At this point, the man spoke again. He thought about this for a long, long time, although he couldn't see them, but he could feel that they were all extraordinary, and their spiritual power was so powerful, this person could probably guess the purpose of their coming here.
After thinking about it for a long time, maybe he felt that his conscience was a little difficult to overcome, but he decided to give them a piece of advice.
"How many of you are here to participate in the cold forest competition in Yandi?"
The man asked them, but before they could answer, the man continued, leaving them no time at all.
"If so, I advise you to get out of here, there's a conspiracy here, they ...... Yes. ”
When this person just got to the point, he didn't know where a dart flew from nowhere, and it was inserted directly into the throat of the Pei family master, and he screamed in pain.
He knew that his life was short, and before he died, he gave them one last explanation.
"You ~ must ~ be ~ careful......" After speaking, the person lost his breath and fell straight down.
He spoke only weakly at the end, his voice was small, very weak, but every word was so clear - let them be careful.
Several of them also raised their vigilance suddenly, and several of them immediately looked around, but they couldn't see anyone, not even a human figure.
The point is that the old man of the Pei family just happened to be assassinated by the person behind the scenes.
This has to make them afraid, that person's darts are so accurate, and the time is so just right, could it be that person, all the time?
That's bad, the situation is not good, a few of them have obviously been so careful, hiding in such a hidden place, and they are still being targeted by others. It seems that this time they are really not good at the opponent.
"It's not good to stay here, let's go. Spread out and leave quickly. Mu Yun called on everyone to get out of here quickly.
They must go, but they have spent so much energy and carefully investigated for so long, but they can't just fall short.
Mu Youlin was unwilling to leave like this, she was the last to leave. Before leaving, she carefully took the hidden weapon out of the throat of the Pei family master, tore a piece of cloth, wrapped the dart, and then went back with them.
When they got back, the four of them called out all three of them, and told them all about what had happened that night, and the three of them were dumbfounded, and if it weren't for the trust between the seven of them, they wouldn't have believed it was all true.
"Ah Ke, take a look, is this secret weapon the same as your master's?"
Speaking of this, Mu Youlin suddenly thought of the secret weapon she was holding just now, and she only felt that this secret weapon was very similar to the secret weapon in Mo Keran at that time.
Due to the urgency of the situation, she didn't have time to take a closer look, so she brought this secret weapon back, hoping that Ah Ke could help her confirm it.
"This secret weapon is very similar to what my master used to use."
Ah Kezai looked at the dart carefully, and said there, but he thought for a moment and added.
"However, I don't think it should be my master's, my intuition tells me that this secret weapon is different from the secret weapon that my master usually uses, but I can't say what the difference is."
Ah Ke's answer undoubtedly disappointed Mu Youlin, she thought that she could connect these things, but it seemed that she was just worried about herself.
The only clue was broken again, and everyone fell silent for a while, not knowing what to do next.
In the end, it was Feng Tianyou who broke the silence on the scene, and there was one more thing that they ignored. That matter is also very important, it was the last piece of advice given to them by the master of the Pei family, and it may be the reason why he finally died.
"By the way, do you remember what the master of the Pei family said at that time?" Feng Tianyou said there leisurely.
"Huh?" Mu Youlin asked rhetorically.
He said that the man who seized him could justifiably take the life of their entire family. If what he said is true, and he has told us so many things today, and he has been discovered, then wouldn't it be very dangerous for their family? ”
Speaking of this, everyone's expressions were a little heavier. That's right, if it weren't for Feng Tianyou reminding them, several of them would have forgotten about it.
Their original intention was just to learn something about the situation here, and they didn't intend to take people's lives. If the person behind it really has such ability, then wouldn't they be very dangerous?
In addition, isn't the family of the master of the Pei family even more dangerous?
"You mean, we're going to save them?"
Luo Qiao guessed there according to Feng Tianyou's words.
"That's right!" Feng Tianyou said firmly.
I really didn't expect this Feng Tianyou, he usually looks giggling, he looks indecent, and he is quite righteous at a critical time.
Since this is the case, then they should also be responsible for their actions, and after a brief discussion, several of them unanimously decided to go to Pei's Mansion again tomorrow.
In the evening, the Pei family also realized the danger, the old man was supposed to go home last night, but he didn't come back all night.
The next day, Pei Fu privately sent people to the vicinity to find the whereabouts of the master, and the bad news came that the master had been killed.
When the people brought back the old man's body, Mrs. Pei sat directly at the door, unable to stand up.
At this moment, a few of them were hiding next to them, and a few of them were already a little guilty, but when they saw this scene today, they didn't know what to say.
The wife of the Pei family just kept crying there, and the tears kept falling, but she didn't make a sound.
Because they didn't dare, they could only cry silently. In that way, it makes people feel distressed when they look at it.
Not long after, the body of the master of the Pei family was brought in. Although their family has a prominent background, after the head of the family dies, the corpse can only be disposed of secretly.
"Have you thought about how we should save their family, do you remember what the master of the Pei family said, he said that those people can justifiably take the lives of their whole family!"
Zhong Ling asked worriedly. After all, that man could not only take their lives, but also justifiably.
"However, you and I both know in our hearts that it is not really justified, it is just an excuse." Feng Tianyou said without hesitation.
Yes, who can be so arrogant, can the court just ignore it? Mu Youlin was always reluctant to believe that, she believed that her father would definitely not be that kind of person.
In the past few days, several of them took turns here for seven days before leaving, and in the first seven days of the Pei family, the Pei family did not have a big funeral.
However, if you listen closely, you can hear small cries from time to time in the house.
It should not be difficult to judge that the Pei family is doing this to be secret, if nothing else, they should be afraid that they will alarm others, so it seems that what the Pei family said should be true.
A few of them are particularly guilty about the death of the master of the Pei family this time, but they can't spend it here all the time, and it's not a way to spend it all the time, it's useless.
Besides, in the past few days, the cold forest is holding a national cold forest competition, and all the high-ranking officials and relatives of the emperor are here, and those people should not dare to act rashly.
"Do you still remember what the Pei family master said at the end?"
Mu Youlin was suddenly startled, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said there with a very serious expression. Her eyes were straight in one place.
"Master Pei said a lot in the end, which sentence are you referring to?" Luo Qiao asked cuddly there.
"Regarding the Hanlin competition, he actually advised a few of us not to participate in the Hanlin competition, he said that there was a conspiracy......"
After so much time, Mu Youlin couldn't remember it very clearly, so he could only rely on his own impression, where he probably recalled the meaning of the Pei family's master.
That's right, the master of the Pei family did say so in the end, he seemed to be going to say that they had some conspiracy, but unfortunately he was killed.
In this way, there must be a conspiracy in this, and the conspiracy is not small, enough for that person to commit a crime on the cusp.
That person silently observed them for so long and didn't make a move, but because of this sentence, he didn't hesitate to be noticed by them, and he must kill the master of the Pei family.
"So, are we going to continue to participate in the Cold Forest Competition?" Feng Tianyou asked in a whisper.
In fact, to be honest, the most important reason why several of them participated in the cold forest competition in the first place was that they wanted to satisfy Mu Youlin's wishes. None of them cared much about those things.
Mu Youlin was stunned there, in fact, she herself was not sure whether she would continue to participate in the cold forest competition.
To be honest, from her heart, she still wants to participate in the cold forest competition, and she wants to play for the royal family.
However, she is more worried that everyone will give their lives because of her selfishness, which she does not want to see.
