Chapter 60: Who is the Spy?

Gao Yuan was talking nonsense and made up a story about his sister who died tragically at the hands of the Four Beast Kings, crying while talking, and Xia Lian, who provoked her, also sobbed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

After finishing the story, Gao Yuan said: "Miss Xia Lian, it's not that I'm presumptuous, it's just that you and my sister look seven or eight points similar, and I think of her when I see you, and I'm rude for a while." I beg your forgiveness. ā€

If you don't forgive Gao Yuan at this time, is it still a human being?

Xia Lian couldn't help but say, "I don't blame you for a long time." In fact...... Actually, if you want, you can call me sister. ā€

"Really, sister!" Gao Yuan squeezed out two tears, but in his heart he secretly scolded himself for being too shameless, even liaring to such a simple little girl.

Even the "sister" was called, and it was naturally much more cordial to talk about other topics, Xia Lian was not familiar with the world, and she was dizzy by Gao Yuan and Manshu Shahuakan in three or two clicks, and asked what to answer.

It didn't take long for the two to ask for a lot of useful information.

First: The old commander Chen Yong was in good health and strong in force, and he had just broken through a single realm a few days ago, but he died of a sudden illness.

Because this glazed fortress was built and built by Chen Yong, according to the provisions of the colonial law, he has the power to decide the heir. When Chen Yong was alive, two heirs were determined, Chen Liuli ranked first, if Chen Liuli had three longs and two shorts, the only one qualified to inherit the position of commander was Chen Hong, the younger brother of the old commander.

Second, there are two ways to return to Liuli Fortress this time, and the captain of the guard, Wen Hutou, insisted on taking the current road, but was stopped by the torrential rain and could not advance.

Third: Chen Hong and Wen Hu are not on good terms, and they have quarreled several times along the way.

After a few pieces of news were synthesized, Gao Yuan and Manshu Sawa glanced at each other, and they both had a plan in their hearts.

When Xia Lian left, Gao Yuan said: "There is something strange here." ā€

"The old city lord is an innate five-fold heavenly martial artist, and it stands to reason that he is immune to all diseases, but he died soon after a sudden illness? Manshushava sneered.

"And it happened that Chen Liuli was not in the city when he was poisoned, and the four beast kings also got the news immediately, it seems that they had already planned it. Gao Yuan nodded, "But I don't know who is behind it." ā€

Manshu Shahua said: "It's very simple, whoever benefits is the biggest suspect. ā€

The two glanced at each other and said in unison: "Chen Hong!"

Before the words fell, a sound of footsteps sounded, and Xia Lian went and returned.

"Sister, don't you have to serve the commander?" asked Gao Yuan.

Xia Lian held a crystal glass box and said softly: "Don't be quiet, I'll send you a cake." ā€

As she spoke, she opened the box and took out two pieces of snow-white sweet cake from inside.

"This is a special willow cake made by a cake shop in our glass fortress, which is made of snow bran wheat that can only be grown on this planet, and it is made after three steaming and three drying, which is very delicious. ā€

As she spoke, she handed the willow cake to Gao Yuan and said, "You can taste it." ā€

Gao Yuan's nonsense is full of nonsense, but people treat each other sincerely, and even he himself feels embarrassed.

Just about to take the willow cake, Manshu Sahua on the side suddenly said, "Wait!"

"What?" Xia Lian looked at her suspiciously.

"This cake is poisonous!" Manshu Sawa said with a gloomy face, "Don't eat it!"

"What!" Xia Lian was startled.

Xia Lian exclaimed: "Don't talk nonsense, this is the cake I personally bought, how can it be poisonous?"

"You may not have been poisonous when you bought the cake, but not now. Has the Commander ever eaten this cake?" Manjush Sahua gently broke open a piece of cake and sprinkled it on the ground.

A few moments later, a swarm of ants appeared on the ground, swarming to carry the sweet cake crumbs back to the nest.

But in just a few seconds, all the ants suddenly fell to the ground with their legs facing the sky, motionless.

Xia Lianqiao looked at this scene with a pale face, and said in a trembling voice: "It's really poisonous, fortunately, the commander didn't eat it." ā€

Gao Yuan's eyes were also slightly condensed, as a medical master who won the achievement of the Xinglin Holy Hand in the legend of the martial arts heroes, he actually saw that the sweet cake was poisonous, but it was Manshu Sahua's performance that made him admire, so cautious and intelligent, it was really rare.

Manshusawa said, "It seems that someone is trying to poison the commander. ā€

Xia Lian asked, "Who is it?"

"I don't know yet...... Who in the team has access to this box of pastries?"

Xia Lian snapped her fingers and counted: "Commander, our four personal bodyguards, Captain Wen, and ...... There is also the second master. ā€

Manshu Sawa said: "The suspect must be among these people, who do you think is the most suspicious?"

Xia Lian shuddered and said: "The commander is naturally impossible, the four of us personal bodyguards have grown up with the commander since childhood, and we won't do this, then only Captain Wen and the second master...... Captain Wen! It must be Captain Wen. She seemed to remember something, and said in a lost voice.

"Wen Hutou?" Manshu Shahua and Gao Yuan's suspicions fell on Chen Hong, and they were stunned when they heard Xia Lian say this.

Xia Lian said in a low voice: "Yesterday evening, I saw Captain Wen secretly rummaging through the commander's luggage, and I didn't care about it at the time. Now that I think about it, the pastry was in that luggage. ā€

Gao Yuan told Xia Lian not to make a noise about it, and when she left, he scratched his head and said, "This is strange, could it be that Wen Hutou is a spy?"

"It's not certain yet, let's wait and see. "Manshu Sawa is also a bit nerve-wracking.

Although the rain has subsided a little, it is still pouring down.

The road ahead is impassable, and the four beast kings may attack at any time, and the bodyguards are restless, and their morale has fallen to the extreme.

Wen Hutou was anxious but had nothing to do, and while he was pacing back and forth to find a way, Manshu Sawa took Taiji Fish to ask for a meeting.

"What, do you have a way to cross the river?" Wen Hutou couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard the intention of the two of them.

The water level of the Luohua River has risen sharply due to the heavy rain, and although the rain has been lighter in the past two days, the river still has not crossed the Changshi Bridge, blocking the way.

Tai Chi Yu said proudly: "I have already detected the water level, as long as I am given enough materials and half a day, I can build a rope bridge on the river to ensure that we can cross the river safely." ā€

Seeing Wen Hutou's look of disbelief, Manshu Shahua said: "Captain Wen, the left and right are also trapped here, why not let him give it a try." Success is naturally good, and even if you don't succeed, you don't have anything to lose. ā€

Hearing that the tiger head was moved, he asked his guards to collect materials everywhere and do their best to help Taijiyu build a rope bridge.

I don't know what method he used, it only took half a day to build a rope bridge suspended over the Luohua River, although it was simple, but it was enough for one person to cross the river.

Wen Hutou looked at the long rope bridge swaying in the wind and rain, looked at Gao Yuan and a few people, and said in a deep voice: "Your people go first!"
