Chapter 0735: Suspicion Interrogation
Qin Yi finally understood why Captain Qian was relieved to hand over the two of them to the two armorers.
Although there was some trust factor, more than that, he was not worried that Qin Yi would run away at all. Even if you escape, you will never succeed.
With these two armorers present, the two of them did not encounter any interrogation along the way, and came to a mansion very smoothly.
The house is small in size and not luxuriously decorated, but it is planted with some flowers and plants. The layout of the surrounding area made Qin Yi and Lu Yu very pleasing to the eye.
Obviously, the owner of this mansion is a gentleman.
"Report! Two people have returned to the island, and their subordinates have been ordered by Captain Qian to bring people here. ”
The sonorous and powerful voice instantly spread throughout the entire compound, and someone inside quickly responded.
"People stay, stand down. ”
"Yes!"
After receiving the order, the two armor soldiers did not drag their feet, turned around directly, and left the compound in great unison.
"You two, come in. ”
An indifferent voice came from the room again, and Qin Yi and the others naturally knew the identity of the person who spoke.
This person is the gloomy old man who tricked everyone into entering the Demon Spirit Island in the name of collecting elixir.
At that moment, Qin Yi and the others did not twist, and walked directly into the house in front of them.
Sure enough, it was the old man sitting in the middle of the room. His face was calm, without sorrow or joy, so that people could not see the slightest emotional flaw on his face at all.
In addition to the gloomy old man, there were two other people who were beyond Qin Yi's expectations.
These two people are acquaintances with Qin Yi.
One is Xu Jing, the fairy of the Mirror Flower Palace, and the other is Fang Lei, the younger brother of Aunt Yun's sister.
In Demon Spirit Island, Qin Yi had contact with both of them. Fang Lei naturally didn't need to say much, if it weren't for Qin Yi, he was afraid that Fang Lei would have already died on Demon Spirit Island.
Fang Lei can sit here at this moment, maybe something happened to the Luofu Great Sect, which caused those people to have to promote the strongest Fang Lei.
But at this moment, both Qin Yi and Fang Lei themselves knew. They must not recognize each other, once they recognize each other, even if the gloomy old man can't see the flaws, Xu Jing can definitely see a trace of clues from them.
In Demon Spirit Island, Xu Jing's strength and mentality, Qin Yi has seen it.
Although she was not very old, her mind had reached the point where she could definitely let Qin Yi deal with it carefully.
Lu Yu is also not a fool, he still understands these truths. However, in order to avoid accidentally revealing flaws, he simply bowed his head and remained silent.
As for Xu Jing, Qin Yi recognized her, but she didn't know Qin Yi.
After all, Qin Yike came into her sight as a cripple at that time, and the wonder of the Thousand Machine Talisman naturally went without saying, and it was absolutely impossible for Xu Jing to associate him with the cripple who was only cautious.
When the two sides met, neither of them took the lead in speaking, and the scene fell into silence.
Fang Lei didn't intend to recognize Qin Yi, so he naturally regarded him as a stranger, just sitting on the chair next to him with an indifferent expression.
As for Xu Jing, a pair of beautiful eyes kept looking at Qin Yi, looking very interested in Qin Yi.
Qin Yi was even more straightforward, holding his hands behind his back and standing in place generously. glanced at the three of them indifferently, but they also seemed very calm.
In the end, it was the gloomy old man sitting in the middle who broke the silence.
"The old man doesn't like nonsense. Since you two dare to leave the island, it seems that you have also completed the task assigned by the old man in the contract, right?"
Qin Yi smiled lightly and nodded, and immediately took out the elixir collected from the Demon Spirit Island. Lu Yu also did the same, and he also took out the gourd and accepted it for the other party.
The gloomy old man glanced at him cursoryly, then flicked his robe and put things away directly. From beginning to end, he did not show that he was too interested in the elixirs that he had obtained so much.
The gloomy old man looked at the two indifferently and continued: "The old man is true to his word, since you have completed the task, you will not get less. There is only one thing, and the old man must confirm it with you. ”
Qin Yi was neither humble nor arrogant, and in the face of the sharp gaze of the gloomy old man, he directly chose to look at each other: "The predecessor broke the siege for my two brothers on Yunlan Island, and the kid has always been impressed. If the seniors have anything to ask, just ask, the boy will answer truthfully. ”
"Very good!" the gloomy old man nodded with satisfaction and said, "Your temperament is a little similar to the old man's youth. In this case, the old man went straight in. In Demon Spirit Island, in addition to collecting medicine, have you ever seen someone you shouldn't see and taken something you shouldn't have?"
The gloomy old man's question was also expected by Qin Yi: "The senior's words are a little unkind. Soon after the kid entered Demon Spirit Island, he was chased and killed in a row, and he knew the identity of the trial target. Even if you know your identity, you can come back alive, and a fight is inevitable, right?"
The other party has lived for such an age, and he is already an old man. On this kind of question, if Qin Yiruo didn't answer truthfully, he would be even more suspicious.
Sure enough, after hearing Qin Yi's answer, the gloomy old man's eyes flashed at first, and then he nodded: "You kid is still honest, and you didn't quibble in front of the old man." Now that you know the inside story of this trip, you must know these two people in front of you, right?"
Qin Yi laughed and said, "The predecessor said this as a joke. Those who can be in front of their predecessors must be the best of the geniuses of the three major sects of the Cloud Sea Empire. Although the younger generation asks himself some means, he also has self-knowledge. If you meet these top geniuses in Demon Spirit Island, you will definitely take a detour. ”
The gloomy old man did not speak immediately, but lowered his head, his brows furrowed slightly. There was no doubt that he was thinking about how much credibility Qin Yi's words had.
is not only the gloomy old man, but Xu Jing is also contemplative. Search in your own memory to see if there are any memories related to Qin Yi.
After a long time, the old man finally spoke. But instead of talking to Qin Yi, he turned his face to Xu Jing, and said in a polite tone: "Does the fairy have an impression of these two people?"
Xu Jing tried his best to search around in his mind, but in the end he found nothing, raised his head and smiled: "Old Zhou, these two people have indeed never met with the juniors, otherwise the juniors will definitely have an impression." It's just that the murderer in Ding Hao's mouth, and the younger generation has also never seen him show up. ”
Xu Jing's words affirmed Qin Yi's statement. But at the same time, it aggravated the suspicion of Qin Yi and the others.
Zhou Lao nodded slightly, as if he had an answer. He didn't continue to ask Fang Lei, but directly shot his sharp gaze at Qin Yi.
"The old man asked you, Ding Hao, have you ever recognized him?"
"If you talk about Ding Hao, then everyone who enters the Demon Spirit Island, as long as they are alive, I'm afraid that no one doesn't know, right? I heard that this person cocooned himself and ended up reaping the consequences! To put it mildly, I'm afraid that the trial genius and the trial target will grit their teeth with hatred for this person, right?"
Old Zhou's eyes were cold, and an astonishing coercion shot out of his eyes.
"What does the senior mean by this? Could it be that this person is plotting against us, and the younger generation still has to be polite to him?"
