Chapter 118: Conspiracy
Ding Qin felt a little unhappy in his heart. Because now is not the time to punish the murderers.
The whole thing is confusing, the cause and effect are unclear, and if any of the killers didn't have the same suicidal courage as the first two, it might reveal key information. But the captain's sudden venting of his anger in that way undoubtedly made the investigation more difficult.
However, if you think about it from another angle, this is also human nature. This ship is a merchant ship that runs back and forth to the sea. He traveled back and forth between the two empires more than once. If this captain can't take advantage of the situation in this crisis to establish himself in this crisis, then even the number of people who will take his ship in the future will be much reduced.
In that case, his income will be directly affected.
Therefore, Ding Qin didn't pursue anything more, but gestured to Fat Dun.
Fat Dun understood, walked directly to the front, and continued to walk towards the entrance of the hatch.
The captain immediately followed with a couple of guards. Ding Qin followed them, and He Yan also acted synchronously with Ding Qin.
Fat Dun walked all the way to the galley of the ship. There, the next meal is being prepared.
The captain opened the door, led the men in, and said loudly, "Stop all the work in your hands!
There were more than a dozen cooks in total, and when they heard the order, they immediately stopped and turned to this side. After everyone stood up, the captain nodded to Ding Qin.
Ding Qin leaned over slightly and patted the fat dun. Fat Dun immediately rushed out and rushed towards the lean chef in the middle.
Before the chef could react, he had already been bitten by Fat Dun on the arm. Soon, he released his spiritual power, the first order and the fourth layer.
Just as he was about to attack Fat Dun, Ding Qin took the lead and hit the man on the side of the neck with a blow before the captain could make a move. With the explosion of physical power and the influx of spiritual power, the chef snorted, was knocked out two or three meters away, knocked down a large bucket, and fainted to the ground.
Ding Qin stepped forward in a few steps, took him in his hand, and directly sealed this person's meridians. After that, Ding Qin threw him at the captain's feet, "When he wakes up, we will interrogate him as much as possible to see if there are any comrades and what their purpose is." ”
The captain did not object, and sent for the man to be taken into custody. He personally checked everyone again before leading the team to leave.
Just when Ding Qin was about to take Fat Dun back to the deck, He Yan didn't move. She frowned and sniffed hard with her nose.
Ding Qin felt that He Yan's action was a little abnormal, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?
He Yan said, "You go up first." I'm feeling a little hungry, I'm going to see what I've made here, and eat a little earlier. Don't worry, I'll be up to you soon. ”
Ding Qin always felt that He Yan had something to say when he said this. However, since He Yan didn't explain, he didn't ask more. However, in his mind, he has already begun to reason further about a series of things.
When he returned to the deck, the captain had already tied the man to the mast. The passengers gathered on the deck were now talking, but the horror in their eyes did not fade much.
In their eyes, these people are demons!
After all, for these merchants and craftsmen, they either have basically no cultivation, or their cultivation is not high, or their combat effectiveness is extremely weak. A cultivator who specializes in combat at the fifth or sixth level of the first order of spiritual power is an invincible existence in their eyes.
Ding Qin walked over to the cook and saw a guard splashing water on his face. However, stimulated by the cold water, he did not wake up, but his lips became extremely calm and purple, and his complexion gradually turned white.
This is not a normal phenomenon.
Ding Qin noticed that something was wrong, and immediately stepped forward and tried this person's snort.
He actually stopped breathing!
And when I touched the arteries in my neck, there was no pulsation at all.
He's dead!
How can it be?
It's measured to do it yourself, and you deliberately want to spare his life, how can you die like this?
And in this short period of time, this person's lips actually became as black as ink, but his face was as white as paper, which looked terrifying.
In such a situation, isn't it, poisoned?
Such a thought flashed through Ding Qin's mind.
At this time, He Yan came up. Ding Qin called her, "Come and see if this person has been poisoned." ”
He Yan walked over, only glanced at it, and said without checking, "That's right, it's poisoned." This poison is called black and white, and it is a preset poison that is hidden in the meridians. If spiritual power circulates smoothly in the body, it will never be poisonous. However, once the operation of spiritual power is blocked, he will be poisoned and killed immediately. ”
Ding Qin took a deep breath. I didn't expect that there would be such a poison. And this person pre-sets this poison in his body, obviously to deal with some unexpected situations.
He sealed his meridians in order to torture him, but this also indirectly killed him.
Sighing lightly, Ding Qin said, "Since that's the case, forget it." Now that the four murderers have been eliminated, the ship should be at peace. Captain, it's up to you to decide what you want to do next. ”
The captain nodded calmly and turned to the others, "This time, thanks to this brother's help, we have been able to resolve this crisis. But whether there are still people hiding among us, I can't tell. For everyone's safety, please stay on deck and concentrate on your actions. We'll bring the food to you later. In addition, I apologize for the shock caused by your trip. This time the boat fare is free of charge. ”
After that, he turned to the guards and said, "Throw this man's body into the sea as well." ”
After saying that, he apologized to all the passengers again, and went to the kitchen himself, ordering some drinks to be prepared for everyone to suppress the shock.
Ding Qin saw him leave and walked towards He Yan, "It's done?"
He Yan was slightly stunned, "What did you say?"
Ding Qin said, "Detoxification." Didn't you stay in the kitchen to detoxify?"
He Yan's eyes showed great surprise, "You know this, you also smell the smell of that poison?"
Ding Qin shook his head, "I'm not a medical student or a drug maker, so where would I be so sensitive to the breath of poison." However, since that person used poison on himself, it means that he has a certain understanding of poison. At the same time, he pretended to be a chef, and he probably had only one purpose. Poisoning food. ”
He Yan smiled with satisfaction, "Yo, your brain is really fast." Rest assured, the poison has been cured, and these people are safe. ”
Ding Qin shook his head at this time, "No, it's not safe." There are also people who are hidden among these people. ”
He Yan's face immediately changed, "How do you know?"
Ding Qin said, "You'll know in a while." Now you do me a favor. You should have a temporary coma drug that can be evaporated directly here. Release some here and let these people fall unconscious for a while after eating. In that way, the true colors of the remaining people will naturally be revealed. ”
He Yan thought for a while and said, "To be honest, I'm really not good at using drugs. I mostly studied detoxification. But what you're talking about, I have a medicine called sleeping incense. It is used to treat insomnia and assist sleep. But if the dose is increased, it can have a *effect. ”
Ding Qin nodded, "Okay, you can do it." Pay attention to timing. Also, it's better to give me an antidote beforehand. ”
He Yan smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I don't want you to die." You have such a smart head, such a face-saving identity, you die, who will protect me?"
Speaking of this, Ding Qin's heart was a little unnatural. However, after He Yan handed over a red pill to Ding Qin at this time, she immediately went upwind and didn't say anything more.
In a short time, the captain himself took the lead, and several cooks brought me my meal and old wine. After some apologies, the captain took the lead in toasting.
Originally, people were mostly frightened and didn't have much thought of eating and drinking. But as the captain punished himself with a few glasses of wine, the number of people who drank with him gradually began to increase.
Ding Qin doesn't drink alcohol, so he doesn't know the taste of this wine. But the people on the side call it good wine as soon as you eat it, but it's very spicy. Naturally, they started eating those meals.
Objectively speaking, the meal prepared today is much better than any time before. On the one hand, there was wine to cheer up, and on the other hand, the tension in my heart was somewhat relieved, and the atmosphere of the whole scene gradually became lively, and people seemed to slowly fade their fear of the killers before.
Just halfway through eating, someone suddenly collapsed in the crowd. At first, people thought it was because they had drunk too much, but as the number of people who fell increased, some people felt something abnormal.
It's just that before they could react, these people also fell.
Ding Qin knew that this was He Yan's * role. He had taken the antidote pill and was not feeling any discomfort now. However, for the sake of follow-up progress, he also shook and fell to the ground.
The captain was stunned for a moment, then turned to the cooks, "What's the matter?"
Of course, the chefs couldn't tell.
The captain suddenly smiled, "You don't know, I know. ”
As soon as the words fell, he suddenly released his spiritual power. In the palm of his right hand, a spiritual power blade suddenly appeared, and the direction it was none other than these cooks.
Ordinary chefs are mostly uncultivated. Even if he can't kill everyone in one blow, between two moves, he can make them all fall.
This action alone is enough to explain the identity of the captain!
"Stop!"
While he was in the middle of the killing, a voice suddenly came from among the passengers.
The captain was stunned. He turned to where the passengers were, but saw no one stand. "Who?
"I didn't expect it to be you. ”
As these words were spoken, a faint spiritual pressure spread across the deck.
The pressure was still there, but it was enough to make the captain feel intimidated.
This is exactly the spiritual pressure when Ding Qin drives his spiritual power!
"Who, who the hell?"
Ding Qin slowly stood up from the crowd at this time, "It's me." ”
The captain's face was now angry and hateful, "Why are you a stinky boy again!
Ding Qin didn't answer, but just asked, "I also want to ask you, what is your origin." What is the purpose of you killing people on Relay Island and sneaking into this ship?"
The captain's eyes were full of doubt, "How the hell do you know?"
