Chapter 7: The Murderous House
Although Ke Mengyu is a good friend of Chen Feng who grew up together, he still doesn't tell her about Zoe for the time being, so Chen Feng can only laugh and joke about knowing her arrival in advance:
"Whoever makes you always have a fragrance on you, I smell it all the way away!"
Ke Mengyu's delicate face showed a hint of suspicion, and her big blue eyes squinted at Chen Feng, and her expression was very cute: "Really?"
"Of course it's true!" Chen Feng nodded without hesitation. Although it was said that he relied on Zoe's reminder to know that Mengyu was close to the small bamboo house, it was true that Ke Mengyu had a unique fragrance on his body.
Now this faint fragrance has also quietly slipped into Chenfeng's nose, and this fragrance makes Chenfeng think of the excuse just now.
"Well, I don't have a nose as good as yours. However, Brother Chenfeng, are you planning to go out?" Ke Mengyu looked at Chenfeng, who was dressed like he was going out.
"yes, I'm going to ······" Chen Feng thought of his destination, but he also suddenly thought that if he told Ke Mengyu the truth, this girl would definitely follow him, and she had to be curious about her character of following every little thing, and she must not let her know. In the space of a second, Chen Feng had already made a decision.
"Where are you going?" Ke Mengyu had already opened his eyes wide, leaned forward slightly, pinned his small hands behind him, and approached Chen Feng to observe his expression, as if he wanted to see something from Chen Feng's face.
As soon as Ke Mengyu approached, the faint fragrance invaded Chen Feng's nasal cavity again, and a faint feeling of dizziness came, making Chen Feng unconsciously take a step back, he raised his hands, and at the same time showed a smile on his face: "No, I just want to go out for a walk!"
Ke Mengyu showed a triumphant smile on his face, and immediately said happily: "That's right, I'm going to Tianling City, you can accompany me!"
The corners of Chen Feng's raised mouth froze in the air, shaking twice, and then his head turned around in the air before finally nodding. This girl usually likes to drag Chen Feng to the city to go shopping, and at the beginning, Chen Feng was very willing to accompany her, but after going twice, I found that this girl was really too difficult to get.
When you see something new, you have to run over to look at it for a long time, and you can't pull it back. After going to feel her "enthusiasm" twice, Chen Feng was reluctant to accompany her anymore. Then every time Ke Mengyu wanted to ask him to go shopping, Chen Feng would refuse with various reasons.
But today, he said that he wanted to go out for a walk, so now he really can't refuse.
Looking at the expectant gaze on the girl's face, although Chen Feng's expression was helpless, he still nodded: "Okay!"
Ke Mengyu saw Chen Feng nodding, and happily hugged Chen Feng's arm: "Great, you are finally willing to accompany me!"
Ke Mengyu: "Oh, don't cry with a sad face, I will definitely come back soon this time!"
Morning maple: ·······
Ke Mengyu: Really, I'm going to get down to business this time!
Chen Feng: When didn't you say that, I believe you are a ghost.
Ke Mengyu: I'm really down to business!
Chen Feng: "What's the matter?"
Ke Mengyu: "This is kept secret for the time being, but you can just follow it!"
Chen Feng: ······
·······
As a result, Chen Feng was pulled to Tianling City by Ke Mengyu.
Originally, he planned to go to Donglong Mountain to test his guess and see if he could get an insect spirit beast back by the way. But now that Ke Mengyu is here, he can only accompany her to go shopping, because Chen Feng knows that this girl is knowing that she is going out, if she doesn't accompany her, she will definitely follow her to Donglong Mountain. Before the matter of the Eternal Demon Insect Body was decided, Chen Feng didn't dare to talk nonsense about it.
Chen Feng sighed helplessly, he really didn't have any interest in shopping.
In Tianling City, it is still as prosperous as ever, with all kinds of shops lined up and people coming and going on the streets.
Some people are in a hurry, and they still have weapons in their hands, this kind of people are generally warriors, and warriors are allowed to wear weapons in the city, of course, although they can wear weapons, but fighting is prohibited in Tianling City, otherwise, there will soon be a law enforcement team to arrest people, and if the circumstances are serious, they will even be imprisoned.
So in general, the city is relatively safe. This is also a student of the Heavenly Spirit Academy, and you don't even need to apply to the academy to go to the Heavenly Spirit City, as long as you don't have classes, you can go to the Heavenly Spirit City.
Of course, if you want to leave Heavenly Spirit City, you need to apply to the academy.
Chen Feng followed behind Ke Mengyu, looking bored on the surface, but in fact, he was observing these passers-by, with the presence of Zoe, he could clearly know which people were martial artists and which people were ordinary people. In the boring shopping, this is also a kind of fun for Chenfeng.
"Huh?"
Chen Feng noticed a person not far away, this person was thin, wearing a black sweatshirt, a hat covered his head, his hands were in the pockets of his clothes, and he was walking in the direction of Chen Feng with his head down.
Soon, the two passed by, Chen Feng turned his head to look at him, and he could see half of his face, although he was wearing a hat, he could still see a black dart-shaped tattoo in the corner of this person's eye. Just when Chen Feng looked at him, this person suddenly raised his head, his eyes met Chen Feng, and a trace of chill flashed in his eyes.
Although it was just a simple look, it made Chen Feng feel creepy, and a chill instantly swept through his body.
"This man is very powerful, very murderous. Zoe's voice came to mind in Chenfeng's mind.
At this time, Chen Feng had already retracted his gaze, but now his back was still a little cold, and his scalp was a little numb. He nodded, indicating that he knew that such a look made him so uncomfortable, and he was definitely a master.
At this time, the young man in the black sweatshirt just now also stopped, he turned to look at Chen Feng, his brows furrowed slightly, and after a pause of two seconds, he shook his head, continued to cover his hat, and turned around and walked forward. Soon disappeared into the crowd.
"Brother Chenfeng, why are you walking so slowly, keep up!" Ke Mengyu's crisp voice sounded, sweeping away Chenfeng's discomfort just now. Ke Mengyu turned to Chen Feng in front and said, although his tone was a little blameful, but the expression on his face was a lovely smile.
"Coming, coming! Xiaoyu, where are we going?" Chen Feng finally couldn't help but ask, he had accompanied Ke Mengyu to go shopping before, she usually walked around the shops, no matter what jewelry store or clothing store, she liked to go in and have a look. But not this time, she seemed to have a destination, and walked straight forward.
"You'll know when you arrive!" Ke Mengyu didn't tell Chen Feng the answer directly, after she smiled mischievously, she naturally grabbed Chen Feng's arm, and then continued to walk forward.
Ke Mengyu was wearing a light blue dress, her whole person exuded a fairy-like temperament, and her delicate face made her particularly conspicuous even in such a crowd. She held Chen Feng like this, which naturally made many men around her throw hostility towards Chen Feng, can be held by such a beauty, who is this kid?
This is a doubt in the minds of many people, but although there is hostility, no one dares to come up and look for trouble. One is because fights are not allowed in Tianling City, and the other is because, as everyone knows, Tianling City Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, you can't just look at the surface, some people look ordinary, but you don't know how strong his strength is.
Therefore, along the way, Chen Feng encountered all kinds of eyes, but at least he didn't encounter any trouble. And Ke Mengyu seemed to have been used to these gazes, so he ignored them at all, and walked forward with Chen Feng.
Chen Feng glanced at her secretly, although this girl had a smile on her face, but because the two grew up together, Chen Feng knew her too well, and even her smile was a little unnatural, Chen Feng could see it, such as now!
"Xiaoyu, did something happen?" Chen Feng finally couldn't help it, and still asked.
Ke Mengyu was slightly stunned, then immediately smiled again, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, Brother Chenfeng, you'll know when you arrive, in fact, I came out today to investigate one thing!"
Chen Feng was slightly stunned, and then immediately knew something: "About your mother?"
Ke Mengyu nodded.
Chen Feng probably knew in his heart that he had heard about Ke Mengyu's mother before. Ke Mengyu has no mother, but her mother disappeared mysteriously seven years ago, and her life and death are uncertain. Since she was a child, Ke Mengyu has been looking forward to her mother's return, but as time went by, she slowly understood that her mother was likely to die.
But Ke Mengyu has been saying since a few months ago that her mother's disappearance is not simple, and it is likely that someone killed her. Chen Feng asked her what the basis was, but she said that her mother had entrusted her with a dream. So Chen Feng didn't care, but in the past few months, she seemed to have been investigating this matter.
"It's here!"
While Chen Feng was thinking, the two of them had unconsciously arrived at the residential area in the east of Tianling City, which was far away from the commercial area and was where the rich people of Tianling City lived.
The houses here are generally single-family, and there are many luxury mansions with yards.
At this time, the two of them were standing in front of a big mansion, but this mansion was a little dilapidated compared to the surrounding ones.
The walls are made of gray stones, which at this point show some signs of erosion. The trees in the courtyard were luxuriant, and the branches and leaves had reached out of the fence.
The gate was made of bronze metal, and compared to the wall, it was much newer, but it was also covered with dust, as if it had not been taken care of for a long time.
"This is here?" Chen Feng asked as he looked at the "mansion" in front of him suspiciously.
"Seven years ago, my mother should have disappeared here!" Ke Mengyu's voice sounded, her face was no longer smiling, she looked at the bronze door in front of her, her eyes flashing with a glimmer.
Hearing this, Chen Feng's heart shook slightly, and seeing that Ke Mengyu's expression didn't look like she was joking, it meant that she had really found out something.
The feeling of boredom before has been swept away, and he really has no interest in accompanying Ke Mengyu to go shopping, but if something really happens to her, then Chen Feng will definitely not sit idly by. After all, she was Chen Feng's only friend in the Heavenly Spirit Academy.
After taking a deep breath, Chen Feng spoke, "Go in and have a look?"
As for why Ke Mengyu knew that this was the place where her mother disappeared, Chen Feng didn't ask much, he had enough trust in Ke Mengyu, the two had known each other for almost 10 years, although this girl usually looked like an optimist, but Chen Feng knew that she was more reliable than anyone else when she was reliable, and she had always taken her mother's affairs the most seriously.
"Well, there may be someone!" Ke Mengyu glanced at Chen Feng, the tacit understanding between the two was very deep, so she didn't explain too much, and the most important thing now was to confirm the guess in her heart.
"This house is so old, it doesn't look like a human being. Chen Feng touched his chin and thought.
