Chapter 227: Suspicion

Chen Pai was lying on the ground, his body gradually returning to normal, and the village guards stepped forward and tied him up.

"Where the hell is this?"

Until now, the village guards had the heart to observe their surroundings, which was the center of a forest, surrounded by trees, and only this large lawn existed.

"Don't worry so much, we've been here for so long, I'm afraid that our traces have been discovered in the cave, so I tied him up. - This may be a bargaining chip for us to survive. Ye Xing looked at a few people.

"It's tied, don't worry, Childe. ”

The village guards nodded, and pulled the rope harder, making the pimple a little tighter.

Eight stone statues, four of which have been removed.

Ye Xing shook his head and didn't think about it anymore, just go to the cave mansion and get a few stone statues to come out and refine them again.

The most important thing at this moment is to deal with the situation after leaving the Void.

After fighting for so long before, Ye Xing would not be naïve to think that during the time when everyone entered the virtual realm, no one would pass through the space at the junction.

Exhaling a breath of turbidity, Ye Xing quietly communicated with the stone slabs, and at the same time let the remaining four stone statues protect the village guards in front of them.

In the next moment, the light flashed, and everyone's eyes flashed, and they appeared in the original cave.

"Strange. As soon as he appeared, Ye Xing was fully prepared to deal with it.

However...... There was no one around there at all, except for the corpses of the dead armorers.

It stands to reason that this should not happen.

"It's strange, didn't any of them pass through here?" a village guard whispered.

Everyone escorted Chen Pai and looked around.

Chen Pai raised his eyelids, just looked in front of him, and then didn't react at all.

"You know something, right?" Ye Xing suddenly looked at Chen Pai.

At this moment, Ye Xingcai felt that the previous encounter might not be a real encounter, and it seemed to be a bit deliberately arranged.

"Oh, boy, what do you think I know?" Chen Pai sneered and asked rhetorically.

Although he was so weak that he couldn't even lift his arms, it didn't stop him from being sharp-tongued.

"For example, what's in this cave, or what's the secret that makes you stronger, and so on. Ye Xing squinted and smiled, and slowly walked towards Chen Pai.

The surroundings are still the same as before, as if no one really passes by.

"Then I really don't know, you're asking the wrong person. Chen Pai replied indifferently, seemingly unconcerned that he had been captured.

"Why don't you call for help?" Ye Xing suddenly stopped and stood in front of Chen Pai and asked.

"Call for help?" Chen Pai's face froze, but he suddenly remembered something.

"Plug it. Ye Xing said coldly, not giving Chen Pai a chance to react.

He had already had some guesses before, but when he saw Chen Pai's reaction at this moment, Ye Xing was even more sure of his inner guess.

It stands to reason that when they appear here, no matter how bad it is, a small number of armor soldiers will find the corpses, probing the situation or keeping watch in place or something.

However, the truth is that no one has appeared, and I am afraid that no one will believe it.

In the same way, after so much time, it is inevitable that this place will be discovered.

When someone finds a corpse here, it will inevitably cause alarm, and at the same time, a large number of armor soldiers will stay here, seal this place and so on.

However, the fact is that when the group reappeared here, there was not even half a figure.

It's a huge stronghold, the most important cave, and it's too strange that no one has passed by to find the body.

And the forces that were able to establish such a stronghold here, it stands to reason that their vigilance measures would not be so bad.

So no one has shown up to now, so there are only two possibilities.

The first is that the other party feels that the defense here is extremely tight, and there will be no enemy sneaking in, and the second is that it is ...... They were deliberately let in, but the reason for this is unknown.

So Ye Xing quietly tested Chen Pai, and after seeing Chen Pai's reaction, he was even more sure of what he thought.

Moreover, there is another strange thing, that is, the combat effectiveness of the armor soldiers has increased too abruptly.

It's like it's just chicken blood.

At the beginning of the battle at that time, Ye Xing felt that something was wrong.

However, at that time, there was no problem, after all, all the attention was attracted by the strange height and fierce combat power of these armor soldiers.

It wasn't until after the fight, when Ye Xing looked at Chen Pai's restored body and his weak appearance, that he reacted.

The strength and realm of these armor soldiers are not very powerful and profound, and even compared to the current village guards, the realm is still a little low.

However, it was such a few people who smashed to death several village guards in the Naling Realm, although there was a reason for this to rely on that strange and huge force.

But that power is clearly not something they can possess on their own.

And since they don't match that power themselves, but they actually have that power, it's clear that it's a price to pay.

As for what the price was, Ye Xing didn't know.

However, after thinking of the previous mad beast herd and toothed lizard flat-tailed beast, a thought came to Ye Xing's mind.

Cultivators' physical transformations.

This is a defective refining method for low-level cultivators to quickly increase their own strength, and the reason why it is said to be a flaw is because this method is easy to get out of control and turn people into half-human, half-monster things.

So, also for this reason.

There are alchemists who use the Dan pattern as an aid to refine the blood of beasts and integrate it into the cultivator's body, so that they can obtain a powerful physical body in a short period of time, as well as a huge power that does not match it.

If this is the case, then the reason why Chen Pai and the others are suddenly strong can also be explained, but Ye Xing's fact feeling may be a little different from his conjecture.

But these are not important to Ye Xing.

And the reason why he didn't think of these things before was because Ye Xing didn't have time to think about it, but also because he didn't see Chen Pai's weakness.

And after Ye Xing saw Chen Pai's weakness, he happened to recall some such information.

After receiving Ye Xing's instructions, the village guard who escorted Chen Pai suddenly understood, pinched Chen Pai's mouth vigorously, and then pulled out a black cloth from his waist and stuffed it into Chen Pai's mouth.

Chen Pai's mouth was stuffed with a black cloth, and he couldn't make any sound at all.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xing withdrew his gaze.

He began to look at the surrounding stone walls and the top of his head, Chen Pai did not call for help as soon as he came out, and after seeing that there was no armor soldier, Chen Pai's reaction was also very silent.

So obviously, Chen Pai knew something, and this also increased Ye Xing's suspicions about this.

There was a feeling of being watched, but it was so slight that it was even imperceptible.

It was so imperceptible in such a quiet environment, and it was normal to not be aware of it in the chaos of the previous situation.

And the reason why Ye Xing can feel it at the moment, the slightest sense of peeping, Ye Xing is because he has some doubts in his heart.

And since it is a suspicion, then it is naturally unfounded.

So Ye Xing was ready to test it, retracting his gaze, Ye Xing once again set his eyes on the entrances lined up.
