Chapter 44: Interrogation
Squeak retreated to Yue Nantian's side, looked at the trembling thin boy with an arrogant face, and stuck out his tongue at him proudly.
The thin boy saw that he had been forced into a desperate situation, and he didn't dare to take any chances.
He turned around with a pair of thief eyes, and finally decided to beg for mercy.
"Its ...... Actually, I'm just confused for a while, so I asked Yue to ...... The head of Yue is discerning. The thin boy trembled all over, and cold sweat broke out in fright.
As soon as the thin young man looked up, he saw that Yue Nantian was staring at him, and he didn't dare to hide anything anymore, he recalled, "Last night, I was wandering down the street, but when I passed a secluded corner, a tall man suddenly appeared in front of me. He handed me a large bag of diamonds, saying that he asked me to go to the foot of Yishan Mountain the next day to spread a rumor, and the man also said that when the matter was completed, he would give me another bag of diamonds. ”
"Oh? What rumors does that person want you to spread? As soon as Yue Nantian heard the thin boy's words, he immediately realized that this matter was not simple.
The thin boy did not answer immediately, but his eyes flickered, and he stopped talking.
After thinking about it for a while, he hesitated and said, "That person asked me to tell those young people at the foot of Yishan that the reason why Master Yue has been looking for the Jade Flute boy for many years is because the young man is ........"
These words made everyone present prick up their ears.
Yue Nantian frowned, "What is it?" ”
The thin boy trembled, "Said that the jade flute boy is...... It's your illegitimate child who used to be out there......"
Yue Nantian's face changed suddenly, and he was obviously not lightly angered by this ridiculous words, "It's just nonsense!" Tell me, what does that man look like? ”
"I, I didn't see him either, he was wearing a black robe and a red mask on his face, I didn't see his face at all."
After the thin boy finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something special, "By the way, that person is really strange, I remember that there seems to be a faint black gas on his body...... Yes, it's black, I remember the first time I saw him, I thought I had seen a ghost! ”
Yue Nantian was even more puzzled in his heart, and couldn't help whispering to himself, "There is black gas on my body...... Could this person be a person in the Demon Dao? However, looking at the entire rivers and lakes, there are only two major demon sects......"
The more Yue Nantian pondered this matter in his heart, the more he felt that he couldn't figure it out.
Because of this matter, it is completely inconsistent with the previous style of killing the underworld or Mo Xiaolou.
"If you think the man is so strange, why do you take it? Aren't you afraid that you will be wiped out after the deed is done? Waiting for Yue Nantian to come back to his senses, he continued to ask.
The thin young man didn't seem to have thought about this problem at all, and after listening to Yue Nantian's words, he was a little scared for a while, and a look of fear appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Squeak couldn't help but interject, and said crisply: "Grandpa Boss, didn't you notice that his eyes lit up as soon as he mentioned diamonds?" It is estimated that nine times out of ten they are greedy for money! And yesterday, he even dared to take on such a high-priced errand of such a terrifying weirdo, and even forgot to consider his own life, presumably he was extremely short of money. ”
"Isn't it because he's stupid?" Yue Nantian asked more.
When he heard this, he couldn't help but giggle a few times, "Grandpa in charge, this person is very good!" Can I still have a fake look at people? ”
The thin boy really admired the teenage girl in front of him very much at this time, and it seemed that nothing could escape her eyes.
But Squeak wasn't sure if the thin boy had anything to hide, so she walked up to him, stared into his eyes, and asked, "You really don't know that person?" ”
"I don't know." The thin boy replied without hesitation.
After making sure that the thin boy was indeed not lying, Squeak became a little lost in his heart, and was suddenly stunned, "This mysterious person must have ill intentions, but is the clue broken like this?" ”
Suddenly, a look appeared on Squeak's face, "By the way, you said that the man gave you a bag of diamonds?" What about that thing? Where are you now? ”
When the thin boy heard that he was squeaking and asking him for the bag of diamonds, he panicked a lot in his heart, "That...... That bag of diamonds is no longer ...... Not with me anymore. I've ......"
Just as he was about to tell the whereabouts of the diamond, a small oval-shaped black fog flew into the main hall at a rapid pace, and he rushed towards the thin boy.
"Not good!" Yue Nantian was negligent for a while, and before he could make a move to block it, he shouted in his heart.
In the blink of an eye, a gust of wind suddenly broke into the main hall.
At the same time, the people present vaguely seemed to see a fist-shaped air mass rushing straight towards the thin boy with a thunderous momentum, accompanied by the gust of wind just now.
Fortunately, the speed of this fist air mass was very fast, and it caught up in front of the black mist, and was the first to block in front of the thin boy.
These two unexpected forces were very powerful, and except for Yue Nantian, no one present could see what had just happened.
Phantom Fist successfully blocked the black mist's attack on the thin boy!
"Smack!" A loud noise followed, and the black fog was shaken out of the lobby in an instant, and exploded in mid-air outside the door due to the force of the collision.
The thin boy was frightened by the thrilling scene just now, and instantly lost his soul, and sat down on the ground with a "bang", and a pool of water stains appeared on the ground.
Unexpectedly, he was so scared that he peed his pants!
Although the people present did not have time to see what had just happened, they clearly saw a dark shadow flashing high above the door.
More than a dozen disciples of the Yishan Sect in the hall were about to rush out the door to find out, but they were stopped by Yue Nantian.
"It's okay, don't panic!" Yue Nantian commanded indifferently.
Although they couldn't understand why Yue Nantian didn't let them go out to chase the sneak attackers, they still didn't ask a word and honestly stood back where they were.
Yue Nantian looked at the thin boy who was peeing his pants in fright, and said, "Don't be afraid, it's okay, you continue!" ”
The thin young man's eyes were hollow, obviously still frightened, he didn't hear what Yue Nantian said to him at all, and he was always silent.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Squeak patted him on the shoulder.
The boy shuddered, came back to his senses, and when he saw that he was fine, he gradually calmed down a little.
At this time, he realized how embarrassing his situation was, and he looked at the strange eyes around him, wishing that there was a hole in the ground that he could get into immediately.
Squeak shook his hand in front of the thin boy a few more times, "Tell me, where did the diamond go?" ”
After the terrible scene just now, he knew in his heart that the other party didn't want him to tell the whereabouts of the diamond.
It's a pity that the thin boy knows in his heart that no matter whether he says it or not, he will inevitably offend one of them.
If I succeed in revealing the whereabouts of the diamond, the mysterious man won't be murderous against me, right? After all, I don't know anything else, and he doesn't have to be taboo about me anymore. And on the side of Master Yue, I also gave an explanation......
After a few thoughts in his heart, the thin young man closed his eyes tightly and significantly quickened the speed of his speech, "That diamond is coming to the gambling house with good luck!" ”
As soon as he heard it, he understood, "It turns out that paying off gambling debts is the reason why you need money urgently?" ”
When the thin boy spoke, his heart beat very fast, for fear that something terrible would happen while he was talking, and when he settled down and found that he was safe and sound, he secretly rejoiced that he had made the right bet.
After listening to his squeaky words, he also looked helpless, "No way, if I can't pay off this huge amount of gambling debts within two days, I'm afraid that my hands will be wasted......"
After speaking, he looked at the unfriendly eyes of the people present, and quickly lowered his posture, "I'm really confused for a while, I beg the head of Yue to raise his noble hand, I will definitely wash my face and be a new person!" ”
Squeak rolled his eyes, "Just your nonsense, who believes it!" I'm afraid it's just to save my life! ”
The thin boy saw that his careful thoughts could not escape the squeaky eyes, so he had to close his mouth.
"Oops! It's better to let that guy escape, and I'm angry! Suddenly there was a loud lament outside the main hall door.
"Master Qin, it's really you, but that person can escape from you?" After Yue Nantian heard the sound, he hurriedly got up and walked towards the door of the main hall, but he became more and more vigilant about this unknown person in his heart.
More than a dozen people present all looked out of the door when they heard the sound.
"Hahahaha, Master Yue, good news, great news!" As soon as Qin Yu stepped into the main hall with his feet, he suddenly changed into a happy look.
"Could it be ......" Yue Tiannan looked at Qin Yu, who was a little abnormal, and seemed to have an understanding in his heart.
Qin Yu's eyes were strange and he nodded at the oncoming Yue Nantian.
Yue Nantian immediately comprehended what Qin Yu was trying to express, and suddenly stopped in shock.
At this time, Qin Yu looked behind him, "It's strange, why did this kid and this girl go so slowly!" ”
Yue Nantian knew that there were other people behind Qin Yu, and he lost his previous stability for a while, and looked out of the door with an anxious face.
Under everyone's gaze, a young man and a beautiful woman walked side by side and slowly stepped into the main hall.
Qin Yu, who has always been a loner, today took two young people into the Yishan faction for the first time.
This strange move inevitably aroused the curiosity of many people about these two young people.
These two are none other than Leng Chitong and Qiu Rong'er, who have accompanied Qin Yu all the way from Leng's Villa to the Yishan Sect!
It turned out that not long after Qin Yu left the Leng Clan Villa alone, he thought about it and decided to bring this jade flute boy who was suspected to be a prophecy to Yue Nantian in person.
So, he turned back to the Leng Villa and did his best to coax Leng Chitong to the Yishan faction.
As for Qiu Rong'er, it was naturally under the banner of abiding by the covenant with Jiao Niang, so she followed all the way.
"This is the jade flute boy mentioned in the prophecy?" Yue Nantian looked at the young man in front of him, and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.
Just as he was about to get close to the young man, Squeak suddenly blocked the middle of Leng Chitong and Yue Nantian unexpectedly.
"Squeak!?" Yue Nantian was surprised.
Squeak didn't notice the surprise in the eyes of others, and just looked up at the young man in front of him.
His eyes ...... Clear as a spring! That's right, it's him! Squeak was convinced that she hadn't recognized the wrong person, and her eyes widened with excitement.
