Chapter 24: The Truth

"It's... How is this possible!How can there be an enemy who knows so much about the Jiao family?" Jiao Yan glanced at Jiao Wen, saying that it was impossible, but there was a trace of shock in his eyes.

"I know the Jiao family's action plan and personnel arrangements well, which means that this person used to be a person from our Jiao family's area, his status was not low, and his strength was between the second-order martial marquis and the third-order martial marquis, and later, for some reason, he made a feud with our Jiao family, fled to another country, and lived on that remote island. And there should be more than one person on the island, but many people, a gang or a family. When the Jiaojia expedition accidentally discovered the island, when he judged that the expedition was not strong, he decisively annihilated the expedition team to avenge the day's revenge. Later, he realized that there would be a search team coming, and he also knew the general strength of the search team, so he decisively set a trap and ambushed and killed the search team again, which is what happened on the island. Jiao Wen also reasoned along the train of thought, and the more he spoke, the smoother it became, and finally the whole process was speculated.

"Big brother's reasoning can indeed explain all this perfectly, but our starting point is only hypothetical, if the starting point is wrong, then all of this will be..."

"Eh!" Jiao Wen interrupted Jiao Yan's doubts with a wave of his hand, "I hope the truth is as I said, and it will be easier to handle that way, if it is not, I don't know what to do with it." Now the question is, who could this enemy be? Let's think about it. ”

"Could it be the Gao family?" said a martial marquis.

"It shouldn't be possible, Gao Xiang only had the strength of a fourth-order martial artist two years ago, and now it is impossible to have the strength of a second-order martial artist. Jiao Wen retorted.

"And the Gao family should hate the Shi family more," added another martial marquis.

"Could that be the Yulong Expedition?" someone suggested.

"This is even more unlikely, the Yulong expedition team betrayed 5 years ago, and we have all been strangled, and it is impossible that there are still Wuhou survivors. Jiao Wen again denied.

Everyone talked about it, but then it was all denied.

"Think about it a little further, and recall the events of 8 or 10 years ago," Jiao Wen suggested.

"10 years ago, could it be Liushi Island?" one Wuhou remembered the massacre on Liushi Island 10 years ago.

"Qu family, Qu Bincheng?" Jiao Wen's eyes narrowed slightly, "It is true that they were not slaughtered back then, and they let the Qu family escape nearly a hundred people, and there has been no news since then, and then I forgot about it." It's really possible that it's him this time, I guess there is no one in this world who hates our Jiao family more than him. ”

"But Qu Bincheng was already a second-order martial artist ten years ago, and now it should be more than this level. "Jiao Yan has some impressions of Qu Bincheng.

"Third brother, have you forgotten our Jiao family's hatred?"

"yes, I forgot that. I remember that the few people who escaped with the strength of the martial arts were all seriously injured by the Lihate Palm, which means that the cultivation path of these people is terminated, and the path of the martial artist can no longer advance half a step. Jiao Yan told the truth that had plagued Qu Bincheng and others for ten years.

"Exactly, leaving the hatred palm is the biggest secret of our Jiao family, it is never passed on, and it is impossible for them to know the way to crack it, so I think they should have been standing still for the past ten years, what a pitiful!" Jiao Wen said gloatingly.

"That's right. But now it seems that these poor creatures are still very restless", Jiao Yan echoed.

"Then let's teach them another lesson, and let Qu Bincheng re-experience how he felt 10 years ago!" Jiao Wen said cruelly.

"Well, I'm afraid they've already escaped. It's been nearly 10 days since the Falcon flew here from the island, and it's now 10 days after the incident," Jiao Yan reminded.

"If you really escape, then there is no way. However, I still need to confirm that if it is really the Qu family's doing, then even if they flee to the ends of the earth, as long as I know it, they will definitely regret what they did today. Jiao Wen said fiercely.

"Then take the lineup up another level?" Scorched asked.

"Well, that's it! do it now!" Jiao Wen ordered.

Ten days later, a warship arrived on the island with a devastating lineup of terror, including 1 third-order martial marquis, 2 second-order martial marquis, 4 first-order martial marquis, and 16 high-ranking military generals. The most surprising thing is that this warship also brought a figure that Lan Qian did not expect, that is, the third son of the Jiao family - Jiao Wenyan. After he heard that the Qu family had taken refuge on this remote island, he made a request to Jiao Wen to participate in this operation as well, and the purpose was naturally very obvious, and he went directly to Qu Qiuyun. The prey that didn't arrive ten years ago, now Jiao Wenyan's heart is still the same, and he still can't forget it.

Of course, Lan Qian didn't know that Jiao Wenyan was also here, at this time, Lan Qian had just opened the eighth Eight Veins of the Strange Meridian leading to the left hand one day ago, and officially advanced to the fifth-order general. In addition, after 20 days of cultivation, Lan Qian became more proficient in the use of earth element martial arts, and thunder element-related martial arts were also somewhat successful. Finally, after repeated confirmation, Lan Qian roughly came up with the continuous casting interval of the electric eye: if the interval between the first and second casting is only 300 breaths, then it must be 1 hour before the third electric eye can be cast, otherwise it will be counterattacked; if the interval between the first and second casting is extended to one stick of incense, then the third electric eye can be cast after the time of three sticks of incense without being counterattacked; if the interval between the first and second cast is extended to half an hour, then Lan Qian can cast the electric eye again after half an hour。 In other words, the interval between the first two eyes is lengthened, and the waiting time of the third eye will be shortened. In addition, Lan Qian also found that he could only cast the electric eye 5 times in a day, because at the 5th time, Lan Qian's eyes would begin to ache slightly, obviously reaching the limit of what his eyes could bear.

Knowing that the Jiao family's powerhouse was coming, so on the 20th day, Lan Qian stopped cultivating and began to monitor the sea from a high ground on the shore, he had to master the Jiao family's every move from the beginning, otherwise his situation would be very dangerous. As Qu Bincheng expected, sure enough, on this day, the Jiao family's expeditionary troops came to the island. Different from the previous expedition ships and search ships, this time the ship is more luxurious and domineering, and it is a veritable warship, which shows that the Jiao family attaches great importance to this operation.

Similar to the route of the previous search team, this time the Jiaojia expeditionary force also discovered the unmanned watchtower first, and then discovered the expedition ship and the search ship. There was also no one on both boats, and things were emptied.

is also to leave some people on the boat, this time the Jiao family's lineup on the island is: 1 third-order martial marquis, 1 second-order martial marquis, 2 first-order martial marquis, 10 high-level generals, plus Jiao Wenyan, a total of 15 people. Although it is the same 15, it is several times stronger than the last time Jiaoling went to the island.

The 15 members of the Jiao family quickly found the valley where the Qu family lived before, but now the valley was empty. The buildings of Qujiazhuang are still there, but they are all empty, without any decorations, only some empty beds, tables and chairs without items, etc., and there are no characteristics of the previous owner's life.

"It's... This is too thorough, let me run for nothing, Qu Qiuyun, Qu Qiuyun, this son thinks you are thinking tightly", Jiao Wenyan said disappointedly, "Fourth uncle, how do you say to get it now?"

"What else can I do, since everyone is gone, let's investigate in detail and see if we can find relevant evidence, and then withdraw," said Jiao Ren, who was a third-order martial marquis.

"Report to the fourth master, a note was found!" As soon as the investigation began, someone found a note.

"Oh, show it to me. Jiao Ren took the note and looked at it, only to see that it was written, "Why does the Jiao family's fleet come to this island repeatedly and disturb my retreat! I don't like to see people, please leave quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind! If you need to know anything, you can leave a message on the lakeside stone more than ten miles north of here, and I will go to see it!"

"What kind of mess is this, isn't this island inhabited by the Qu family, but a hidden master?"

"Fourth Master, I'm afraid this is a trap," a second-order martial marquis said.

"The third brother of the ghost is right, this letter is written in a mess, and we have to leave a message, and fools know that this is a trap. The First Order Martial Marquis said.

"If he is really some kind of hidden master, then just kill us all, why bother so much. Another first-order martial marquis said.

"Well, Wei Xiao and Xie Yun have a point," Jiao Ren nodded, "But why did the other party write such a note? Look at this handwriting, it should not have been long after it was written, at least it means that there are still people on the island now, but I don't know if it's the Qu family? I don't know how many people are here? There are too many doubts." ”

"First of all, this kind of message will never come from the mouth of a hidden master, so the possibility of a hidden master should be ruled out first. Ghost San began to analyze, "It's not a hidden master, but if he wants to write like this, it means that he wants to cover up the facts, which may be Qu Bincheng's trick." As for the message, it is best to understand, it is a trap, let us go to the door to die. "The ghost three have finished analyzing.

"Well, that makes sense. Jiao Ren nodded.

"Oh, what's there to analyze, since someone is here, let's find him. Since there is an ambush there, let's kill it, how simple it is. Isn't it just a little Qu Bin City, what tricks can you play in the hands of the fourth uncle?" Jiao Wenyan was a little impatient, "Qu Qiuyun, are you here?"

"Okay, then do what the third young master wants. But before we can do it, we need to send someone to the warship and tell them what we have got and what we are going to do, and then we will kill them directly. Remember, you must not scatter until you figure out the strength of the enemy, otherwise you may be defeated by each one!" Jiao Ren made the final decision, but he was also very cautious.

Soon, a fifth-order military general went to a warship and returned to the Qujia Valley. At this moment, Lan Qian was watching the movements of the Jiao family on a high ground 10 miles away. With the return of the fifth-order general, Jiao Ren and the others began to go to the lake that Lan Qian said on the note, that is, the lake where the giant crocodile was ambushed.
