Chapter 69: Proposal

"What's the matter?" Xiao Lin looked at Situ Yun who was walking slowly with a calm gaze, and his right hand rested on the long sword at his waist without a trace.

Linglong also walked two steps slowly, standing behind Xiao Lin, her jade-like fingers gently rubbing against the Yuzang Sword, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

Situ Yun glanced at Xiao Lin and Linglong's movements, and smiled softly: "The two of you don't need to be nervous, there is no malice in the next place, just a small proposal." ”

"What proposal?" Feng Lei also walked over after settling his students.

"It's not convenient to talk here, reinforcements from criminals may arrive at any time, we are looking for a quiet place to talk about it, and as for where to choose, you decide. Situ Yun said lightly.

He asked Xiao Lin and the others to decide the place of the conversation also showed his sincerity, proving that he didn't have any more ideas, and he didn't arrange any traps and ambushes.

Xiao Lin and the three looked at each other, and then nodded.

"Okay, then we'll leave first, and we'll hear what you think later. Xiao Lin said.

"Yes. Situ Yun nodded, without any other opinions, and waved his palm to beckon his team members to follow.

Several figures flickered, quickly departing from the place, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Not long after Xiao Lin and the others left, several figures jumped out of the forest, and a sturdy man walked in the front, and his left eye was empty, it was the one-eyed.

"Boss, it looks like the plan has failed. One of the criminals walked up to One-Eye and whispered.

Looking at the devastated battle ruins in front of him, he took out a pot of wine from his waist and took a sip, and said in a somewhat casual tone: "Didn't you tell me that it was foolproof? ”

A young man walked out of the crowd behind One-Eyed, his pale face hidden in his hood and his voice sounded smiling: "One-Eyed Lord don't worry, this is part of the plan." ”

"What do you mean?" a dangerous glint appeared in One-Eye's eyes, "It was your plan to let me kill so many of my men at once?" He slowly turned around and stared at the boy sternly, the sound of bones colliding in his hands.

"One-eyed don't worry, listen to me explain to you slowly. Most of the boy's cheeks were hidden by the hood, and only a smiling mouth could be seen, "Listen to me tell you slowly." ”

The boy with the hood walked up to One-Eye and began to mumble quietly, the forest was quiet, a storm was brewing, and a rainstorm was coming.

"Here it is. Xiao Lin found a cave not far ahead and beckoned everyone to stop.

"Why here?" Feng Lei asked curiously, he didn't study these things, and always felt that as long as he left the previous place, he could find any place he wanted, and he didn't pay so much attention to it.

"There's a cave here, which is usually a lair of ferocious beasts, and you can still faintly smell some wild beasts. Xiao Lin explained.

"Then we should choose this place?" said Wind Thunder glared.

"But the surrounding soil is level, there is no sign of being turned, and the weeds and shrubs are neat, not sloping or broken, indicating that no man or beast has passed through here at this stage, and it is safe for the time being. Xiao Lin explained in a flat tone, and then looked at Feng Lei to ask for his opinion.

Feng Lei laughed a little embarrassedly: "Then here, I think it's good, just ask casually." ”

Xiao Lin rolled his eyes, and asked casually, this kid just doesn't understand.

Situ Yun looked at Xiao Lin quietly on the side, there was a flash of surprise in his eyes, and a smile full of meaning appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Then let's just set up a tent here and repair it, what I want to say is a bit verbose, this situation is a bit complicated." ”

Xiao Lin glanced at Situ Yun and nodded without speaking, took the bag in Linglong's hand and began to set up the tent.

The others were not slow, but it was already night after finishing their work, and everyone gathered around the campfire, eating dry food while waiting for Situ Yun to speak.

"There's actually a proposal below. Situ Yun took a sip of water slowly and methodically, and said slowly.

"What's the proposal?" asked Wind Thunder, a compressed biscuit in his mouth, his mouth a little unclear.

"You've probably heard of the one-eyed man. A gleam flashed in Situ Yun's eyes, and he said in a somewhat low voice.

Xiao Lin perked up, of course he knew that he might have to help a few people deal with that one-eyed guy in the near future, it seemed that Situ Yun should have some information.

"What do you want to say?" Feng Lei's face was serious, obviously he had heard of this man, the man who had brought together many criminals.

Situ Yun paused, as if he was considering how to explain this matter: "I don't know if you have learned about this news, as far as I know, so far, One-Eyed has captured six or seven students from the Black Court. ”

"What?"

Everyone was shocked, the Black Court had already captured six or seven people? You must know that the total number of students who participated in the trial this time was about fifty.

"Is the news reliable?" Xiao Lin asked in a deep voice.

"It shouldn't be false, I learned from a cadet that his team was attacked by One-Eye, and he was the only one who escaped. Situ Yun nodded and said.

"What's that man's name?" asked Linglong.

Situ Yun shook his head: "I didn't ask carefully, he was obviously seriously frightened at that time, and his mind was a little unclear, so he just kept talking about one-eyed, one-eyed, and quickly fled without stopping for a moment." ”

"Could it be a trap, using the means of the spiritual department to control that student, and deliberately leaking this kind of information. Wind Thunder whispered.

"It's not out of the question. Xiao Lin rubbed his chin, "But why do people do this? This will only cause the anger of the students, and make them be attacked by a group, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Situ Yun agreed with Xiao Lin's opinion: "That's right, this person's remarks should be credible, and I also asked the spiritual members of my team to investigate, and the other party's mental fluctuations are very stable, and there is no sign of illusion." ”

"If that's the case, it's only going to get worse. Feng Lei's face was ugly, and he gently tapped the ground in front of him.

"Why?" asked Linglong.

"If this is not a trap for criminals, it means that the other party has the ability to easily destroy a squad of cadets, and they are captured alive. Xiao Lin said in a low voice, "It also shows that the overall strength of the other party is much higher than that of any of our individual squads, unless ......"

"Unless the students can also huddle together, they will only be broken one by one. Situ Yun nodded at Xiao Lin, this is what he wanted to express.

"You mean the cadets are acting together like those criminals?" asked Feng Lei in surprise.

Situ Yun nodded: "That's right, that's what I mean, this is also a proposal of mine, I want to discuss it with you." ”

Xiao Lin fell silent, although this may be a solution, but this method is too difficult to implement, and it can be said that it is almost impossible to succeed.

"No way. Feng Lei shook his head and denied it very directly.

"What do you say?" Situ Yun was not annoyed, and humbly asked Feng Lei for advice.

"There are many reasons for this, and many factors add up to just make your proposal abort in the end. Feng Lei said, "First of all, this is a competition, not just for a breath, but also for the three geniuses training camp places, everyone will fight for this, if they are united, who should this place be given to in the end?"

"I think everybody's performance instructors see it, and they judge themselves. Situ Yun didn't think it was a problem, there were so many detectives in the Black Court in the Forest of Demons that were monitoring the students' every move, how the students were performing, and who the quota should be given to, the instructors could make a decision.

"It's just a small issue. Feng Lei said lightly, "What's more troublesome is arrogance. ”

"Arrogant?" Situ Yun was a little puzzled.

"Every student who can enter the Black Court is not here to mess around, but to improve his strength, and a large part of them are still from the nobility, and everyone is very arrogant in their hearts. Feng Lei said, "If you really unite, who will command, can that person serve the people? Do you think that if I am the leader, you will listen to me?"

Situ Yun was silent, since he put forward this idea, he naturally wanted to dominate all the students in his heart, but he ignored the key factor of the psychology of the students, he may have a good reputation, but his prestige has not reached that level, and it is difficult to convince the public.

"In the same way, if you were to be the leader, I would not have listened. Feng Lei said lightly.

"There may be some loopholes in this plan, so we have to put it aside for the time being. Situ Yun said with some regret, "Then how should we deal with One-Eye, the other party should be the strongest criminal, and there are a large number of subordinates gathered around him, and the situation is very serious." ”

"The other party still has our hostages in their hands, so it's not easy to deal with it. Feng Lei frowned, and couldn't think of any good way for a while.

Everyone fell silent again, everyone felt helpless against the one-eyed man, even Situ Yun frowned, his personal strength may be very strong, but it is impossible for him to deal with so many criminals alone.

"It's difficult to unite with the students, so what if the joint criminals?" Xiao Lin said suddenly.

"More unlikely. Situ Yun shook his head and vetoed directly, "We don't have a bargaining chip to be able to trade with criminals, we must know that the other party is the one who wants to kill us in order to be free, is it possible that we exchange the lives of our own students for their support?"

"There are criminals who don't want to be free, they just want to fight for a breath. Xiao Lin said calmly, thinking of the female criminal Liu Yan he had met before, people didn't care if they could be free, just to take revenge.

"What do you mean?" asked Wind Thunder.

Xiao Lin briefly explained to everyone the deal he reached with Liu Yan not long ago: "I think we will unite those criminals to attack One-Eye, maybe there will be a chance, One-Eye will die, and others will only be scattered." ”

Situ Yun's eyes flashed, and he whispered softly: "This may be a way, but it can't be determined whether it's true or not." ”

"If the other party is not sincere, I can't stand here. Xiao Lin said.

"If it's true, maybe give it a try. Wind Thunder nodded.

"Maybe, maybe there's a chance. Situ Yun also nodded, and suddenly his face changed: "Who?!"

"Hehe, the little doll is a good plan, I want to ask who is going to kill me?" A low laugh came from the shadows not far away.

A stout man paced slowly, his right eye shining and his left empty.

One-eyed, here!
