Chapter 6: Leak, Evacuate, See Conspiracy
The moment Reed Gaun fell to the ground, Ling Aotian regained control of his body.
Without the support of the mysterious power from before, his body went limp, and he sat down on the ground.
The previous battle with Reed Gaun, although it relied on that mysterious power, but everything he did was entirely on his own, and he didn't feel it when the mysterious power was still there, but at this moment, he only felt that his whole body was sore, and a feeling of soreness came from his limbs.
Exhaustion, boundless exhaustion came over him, and he wanted to go to sleep, but it was time to sleep, and Richard Gaun was dead, and he had to get out of here, or he would die if the fifty guards noticed it.
Although Ling Aotian wanted to leave here quickly, his sore body refused to listen to his command, and in desperation, he had to lie down next to Leader Gaun's corpse and wait for his body to recover.
I hope those guards will come later!" Ling Aotian thought.
However, Ling Aotian's hopes were dashed, and just as he was thinking like this, a rush of footsteps came from a distance.
Ling Aotian's face changed drastically, no matter what, he didn't expect those guards to come so quickly.
Ling Aotian knew very well that if he was found out now, he would definitely not be able to escape death, and if Richard Gaugon died, those guards would definitely be implicated, but as long as they caught the murderer, the result would be different.
The sound of hurried footsteps was getting closer and closer, and a dense thin sweat appeared on Ling Aotian's forehead.
Damn it! Ling Aotian scolded secretly, at this moment, his body couldn't move at all.
"Hurry! right ahead!" came the voice of one of the guards.
At this moment, Ling Aotian felt that his body could move.
Get out of here!" Ling Aotian thought.
However, when he was about to stand up and leave here, he suddenly thought of a point, the way he is now, even if he can avoid the group of guards in a short time, I am afraid that he will not be able to escape the pursuit of those guards, and escaping is definitely not a long-term solution.
Since you can't escape, you have to find a way to avoid those guards.
Thinking of this, Ling Aotian looked around.
In the primeval forest, the most natural ones were trees, and when Ling Aotian set his eyes on those towering trees, he immediately had an idea in his heart.
Fifty guards from Reed House finally arrived.
"There!" a guard first found the body of Richard Gaun.
Fifty guards soon surrounded him.
"Where is Ling Aotian, where is he?" The captain of the guard soon discovered that there was no trace of Ling Aotian at the scene.
"He must have escaped. A guard said.
"Damn! Chase, we must not let him escape, otherwise, we will definitely not be able to get out of it. The captain's face was extremely ugly.
Those guards naturally knew this, and when they heard the captain of the guard, several people immediately rushed out.
After the captain of the guard looked at the direction in which the men were chasing, he quickly called out a few more people and asked them to chase in other directions.
In just a few moments, the fifty guards left nearly thirty people.
"You guys, bring the young master's body back to the camp immediately!" the captain of the guard counted several people again.
As the captain of the guard gave one order after another, fewer and fewer people remained in place, and in the end, only he and another guard remained.
"Captain! I ...... I'm also going to chase Ling Aotian. The guard said with some humility.
"No, you have more important tasks. The captain of the guard shook his head.
"What mission?" the guard asked, somewhat puzzled.
The captain of the guard slowly approached the guard and said meaningfully, "Of course it's a very important task!"
"Captain, tell me quickly, what kind of task is it?" The guard became excited, and secretly felt in his heart that the captain wanted to give him an important task, and it must be because he valued himself.
It seems that he will have a good life in the future, as long as he has the captain to cover him, he doesn't have to worry about those guys anymore.
Thinking of this, the guard couldn't help but blurt out: "Captain, I ......"
"I've brought a few good bottles of wine from home, and I'll give you two in a moment. Before the guard could finish what he wanted to say, he felt a sharp pain in his chest.
"Captain...... You ......" his eyes widened in disbelief.
With a suffrage, the captain of the guard drew the sword that had pierced the body.
"For ...... Miscellaneous...... ......" The guard's eyes widened, and he slowly fell, until he died, and he didn't understand why the captain wanted to let him complete an important task, but he killed himself at this time.
"Do you want to know why? Actually, quite simply, it's your job – to take the blame. The captain of the guard slowly wiped away the blood stains on the long sword, "The young master is dead, if we don't catch the murderer, none of us can get out of it, if they catch Ling Aotian, we can naturally be exempt from punishment, but if we don't catch it? I don't want to cut off my own future because of this, so I can only wronged you, in fact, it is not wronged you, is it? If it weren't for your greed for life and fear of death, you were frightened by Ling Aotian, and ran back to report the news, if you didn't help the young master, the young master wouldn't have died." ”
The captain of the guard looked at the corpse of the guard, and after saying these words, he stood silently in place, his gloomy eyes flashing with an indescribable light, not knowing what he was thinking.
About an hour later, the guards who had gone to chase Ling Aotian came back one after another, but everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
"Captain, isn't this Lin Han?What's going on?" one of the guards first discovered the body of the previously killed guard.
The captain of the guard didn't answer, but asked, "How is the situation, have you found Ling Aotian?"
Everyone shook their heads.
The captain of the guard had a look on his face that he knew this before, and he cast his light on the guards.
"You must all be wondering why Lin Han died here, right?"
The captain of the guard glanced at the crowd and said, "I killed him!"
Like a bolt from the blue, everyone's eyes widened as they looked at the captain of the guard.
"Actually, it wasn't Ling Aotian who killed the young master, but Lin Han. ”
This is undoubtedly another bombshell, making everyone's already extremely round eyes even rounder.
"Everyone knows that Ling Aotian doesn't know martial arts, but Lin Han said that Ling Aotian is deeply hidden and has advanced martial arts, how big do you think this is possible? Ling Aotian's little guy everyone knows that he has come to the Lide Mansion since he was a child, how many opportunities does he have to learn advanced martial arts? Moreover, our little master, he is not a simple gentleman, he also has a high level of cultivation, even if Ling Aotian secretly cultivates, how likely is it that he is stronger than the young master?"
Speaking of this, the captain of the guard glanced at the people who were skeptical, and said: "Actually, everything is Lin Han's conspiracy, he knows that the young master has murderous intent towards Ling Aotian, and when he saw the young master bringing Ling Aotian out, he secretly followed, waiting for the opportunity to kill the young master, and then blame Ling Aotian." ”
