Chapter 191: Peeling Back the Skin

"Are you okay?"

Qi Xian rushed to Feng Ren's side at the first time, reaching out to try to help him up.

"At least not dead. ”

Feng Ren smiled bitterly, he grabbed the hand handed over by Qi Xian and slowly got up from the ground, his legs were still a little weak, and he almost fell down again. It was not a simple matter to accompany the cyclops in circles, Feng Ren had used all the power he could gather to improve his speed, and behind the seemingly dexterous was at the cost of overdraft in his eyes.

Even so, in the previous slippery entanglement, Wind Ren still couldn't completely dodge the red rays, and the scorch marks on his robe at this time are the best telling.

And Huo Yun, who got up by his own strength, also hurried to Feng Ren's side, and he said helplessly: "I still want to ask why you threw me down so suddenly." Now it seems that you are in worse condition than I am. ”

There were also several scars crisscrossing Huo Yun's body, which were left by the previous battles with the famous orcs, but it was not a big deal.

"Next time, you're going to deal with that damn Cyclops and the Cone of Breakers. Feng Ren gave him a blank look.

Suddenly, Qi Xian's tone sank: "You first retreat to rest and heal, and leave the rest to us." This time, the Tianxiong Army will never forget each other!"

Not far away, the two outer two broken city cones were already very close. The cone at the gate had been damaged more than half, making it impossible to continue attacking, and it was also a huge difficulty to move out of the vacant position. However, from the very beginning, the orc commanders did not think of simply breaking through the gates to attack the city directly, and now it was time to play the second role of their giant city breaker - the ladder.

Feng Ren didn't say anything to stay here and die in battle, but slowly walked down the stairs down the city tower with the support of the two soldiers sent by Qi Xian. After all, this is Donglong City, which is under the jurisdiction of Beiting, not his country, and it is good to be able to do this now.

Moreover, it is the duty of the soldiers to protect their families and defend their families, and even if the Tianxiong Army dies in battle, it is their fate. Wind Tenacity has given enough help, and he still has his own goals that must be accomplished, and he must not hold a grudge against such a place.

Soon, Feng Ren returned to his guest room in the General's Mansion again, and Huo Yun stayed in the room somewhat casually.

Looking at Huo Yun's eyes that kept looking at him, Feng Ren, who was lying on the bed, said with some coldness: "The way you look now, why do I feel like some well-dressed beast coveting the helpless girl in front of me?"

Huo Yun snorted and said, "Is it because your mind is too evil or is your imagination too rich?" ”

"It's nothing, I just feel that the atmosphere is a little wrong, just adjust it. Feng Ren smiled. And at this moment, he returned to calm, but he was not in a hurry to heal his injuries, after taking out a bottle of elixir from the storage ring and taking the next one, and not forgetting to throw one to Huo Yun as well, some messy thoughts in his mind were slowly straightened out under combing.

And Huo Yun took the elixir and threw it directly into his mouth and swallowed it without asking what it was, and then began to slowly sort out his meridians. In the previous battles, he suffered a lot of losses, and the successive battles with insufficient rest made his own strength, which was still recovering, unable to completely return to the peak.

The offensive and defensive battle of the castle tower was still going on in a scorching state, and the chaotic sound came from afar, but these could not distract what Feng Ren was thinking about in the slightest. In his previous encounter with the Cyclops, a strange conjecture flashed through his mind while he was in a hurry, and intuitively seemed to be able to solve several previous mysteries. But at that time, Feng Ren didn't have the heart to think about this, but now it's different.

Several pieces of information in his mind slowly converged, and after several pictures overlapped one after another, a clear line of thought was completely formed in Feng Ren's heart. After thinking about what it all was, he cried out, "I see!"

Huo Yun, who was in a half-settled state, was also awakened instantly, and he looked at the startled Feng Ren suspiciously, and asked, "What is it?"

Feng Ren slowly let out a sigh, and he stared at Huo Yun with meaningful eyes and said, "When you fought with the group of robbers who caught up in the Zhou family's caravan before, what was the total value of the goods they left behind in order to block the pursuing army?"

Huo Yun felt that Feng Ren's problem was a little inexplicable, but he still thought for a while and replied: "According to the orders of the team leader at that time, I estimate that it is probably about forty percent. ”

"So how much is the value of the Zhou family's property in total?" Feng Ren continued to ask.

"It's hard to say, I'm afraid it's more than enough to buy a city anyway. Well, I said, what are you asking for? Now is not the time to be curious. Huo Yun was very puzzled.

Feng Ren shook his head and said, "No, this question is important. Do you remember what Qi Xian said not long ago, there was a word on the orc's battle book that even their translator couldn't explain for the time being? I have now vaguely guessed what it might be. ”

"What is it?" Huo Yun was very surprised.

Feng Ren said slowly: "I can't say what it is. But just as I was fighting the Cyclops, when confronted with its terrifying ray, I suddenly thought of what you said, which probably means that it is the power that is supposedly inherited from the ancient world after the Heavenly Punishment. It was then dawned on me that the word, which even the interpreter could not explain, was most likely an object of some origin, and that it was so indecipherable that it was so remote that it was difficult to recognize it at a glance because it existed in orc legends. Moreover, if that thing really exists in Donglong City, I'm afraid it will be in the hands of the Zhou family's caravan!"

Huo Yun nodded and replied, "Your previous guess is basically reasonable, but isn't that thing a little inappropriate in the Zhou family's caravan?"

"As you said earlier, when they tried to escape quickly, they left behind nearly forty percent of their cargo. And those goods are now in our hands, and we roughly calculated that it was about 300,000 gold coins at that time. Then, the total value of this batch of goods is about 800,000. In addition to the various travel expenses from Gaxia to Beiting, the cost of passing through the checkpoint, the labor cost of so many people, and the cost of accommodation and food, and then roughly calculate the profit ratio of sales. In your opinion, how much net money can you make by taking this batch of goods?" Feng Ren's eyes stared at Huo Yun tightly, making him feel a little inexplicable.

"I guess it...... It's probably just over 100,000, and I'm afraid it's even less. Huo Yun replied truthfully.

Feng Ren suddenly leaned on the head of the bed, and then said: "The Zhou family is rich and rich. And to travel such a long distance to make a cargo just to earn 100,000 yuan, and there are so many disasters on the way, do you think it is possible?"

"It's a bit unconscionable...... You mean, they should have at least one very important item in their team this time, and that is the key to coming to Beiting this time!If this is really the case, then everything really makes sense!" Huo Yun finally reacted to the point that Feng Ren wanted to say.

Feng Ren sighed and said, "I'm afraid that the real situation is even more serious than my current inference......

"Why? Isn't the truth almost clear to us now?"

"Truth? Speculation is basically a guess until it is confirmed with certainty, and behind the seemingly reasonable evidence, sometimes there is more meaning hidden. Let me ask you, if you were the head of the caravan and were to carry such a valuable commodity on your way, would there probably be no master among the guards?"

Huo Yun didn't even think about it and blurted out: "It's impossible!"

Feng Ren nodded, "That's right." Since there are masters in charge, and it should be a realm-level strength. The value of something that can cause orcs to frantically attack the city at all costs will definitely not be guarded only by people under the strength of the realm. Then the second problem also comes, since there are boundary-level strength masters in charge, it is obviously unreasonable for the caravan to leave behind some of its goods and flee when it encounters such a group of robbers on the way. Obviously, they knew something to dodge some hidden force. ”

"You mean, there are more than just people who have taken a fancy to this batch of goods, and the strength makes the masters of the caravan feel jealous?" Huo Yun immediately thought of this.

Feng Ren nodded again and said, "Exactly. However, it seems that the caravan's information is not accurate, and they don't know whether the force that is secretly tracking them knows the real goods they are transporting, so they took the opportunity to ask for directions. But it turned out that the goods that had been left behind would not have attracted the attention of those who had been secretly there, otherwise they would not have fallen into our hands now. ”

Huo Yun suddenly laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to have such delicate observation and fine inference ability. ”

"Could it be that in your eyes, I should be a martial artist?" Feng Ren glared at the other party angrily.

"Of course not. But let the facts speak for themselves. Now can you move? Let's go to the Zhou family's caravan and ask what happened. ”

After that, Huo Yun stood up and moved his muscles and bones, now he still has six or seven percent of his strength left, and it shouldn't be a big problem to protect himself. And in this city, he didn't think that the group of people from the Zhou family's caravan were messing around.

Feng Ren lifted the quilt covering him, then raised his left arm and danced a few times, closed the five fingers of his left palm and let go several times. After doing this, he jumped out of bed, took out a black robe from the storage ring again, put it on, and replied, "It's not a big problem, it's really not good, it's enough to escape." But for the sake of the past, I think it's better for us to bring some people along. ”

"Who?" Huo Yun heard in a fog.

Feng Ren said with a smile: "Naturally, it is a borrowed army, and the target is best to be the Tianxiong Army." ”

However, behind the seemingly casual, Feng Ren's heart is still very bottomless, and he secretly feels that the truth of the matter is definitely the same as he expected, and it is not as simple as inferred. Not to mention anything else, just the dart containing dark poison used by the robbers to hit Huo Yun was definitely not an ordinary thing, and with those robbers, I am afraid that it would not be able to get it.

Coincidental?

There are indeed many coincidences in this world, but the possibility that everything in front of us is all coincidences is too small. Feng Ren could faintly see that a pair of invisible and huge black hands were churning in the sky above Dragon City.

I'm afraid all this is just the beginning......
