Chapter 32: No need to answer
"Don't go over!" Zhao Qiman cried out in a lost voice, like a frightened bird.
"Shut up. Lin Yi turned around and scolded, his face displeased, "Are there still few people you dislike?"
"You seek death by yourself, I don't care!" Zhao Qiman gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Don't blame me for not reminding me, you will definitely regret it later, hum!"
"I don't need you to worry about it, big, small, sister. Lin Yi sneered coldly, too lazy to pay attention to her.
Xianglan looked at him coming, the smile on the corner of her mouth was even better, she waved her hand and said, "Lin Gongzi, come, help me, come quickly~"
"Well, I'm here to save you. Lin Yi nodded lightly, walked up to her, supported his waist with his right hand, stretched out his left palm, and his eyes were full of tenderness, "Miss Xianglan, give me your hand, I can pull you up." ”
Xianglan smiled shyly, slowly handed over the green onion-white jade finger, and secretly pinched it into a claw-like shape.
It's coming, it's coming, it's almost there, it's a little more! Xianglan couldn't wait to mutter, and her face was faintly hideous. The two of them were getting closer and closer, and they were about to meet - Lin Yi suddenly withdrew, and his right hand pulled out a short knife from his waist like lightning and stabbed her at the back of his palm!
Xianglan was stunned, and did not react until the sharp blade "poofed" through her palm, and then pressed and nailed to the ground. In an instant, his eyes changed sharply, and the fierce light appeared, and he opened his big mouth, revealing two rows of fangs, and bit it hard!
Lin Yi retreated with one blow, took two steps, and dodged the fatal bite. When I looked down again, the clothes on my chest were torn to shreds, and there were still a few tooth marks on my heart, and I was almost disemboweled. He couldn't care about himself, and hurriedly dragged the two unconscious middle-aged men back into the darkness.
"Phew. Xianglan spit out the chewed clothes and said angrily, "Boy, why didn't you take the bait?"
The voice was dull and deafening, and it was very different from the previous Chu Chu pitiful. She was impatient to pull out the short knife, but found that after the sneak attack just now, she could no longer exert any strength, her limbs were weak, she was paralyzed on the ground, the corners of her mouth were salivating, and she moaned weakly: "Hungry...... I'm so hungry......"
"Are you alright?" Zhao Qiman came up to support Lin Yi, with a little worry in his tone.
"It doesn't matter. Lin Yi put the two middle-aged men down, turned around and waved his hand, but he felt scared in his heart, and gasped: "Hu ——, and hungry ghosts to grab food, I don't want to come again." ”
Zhao Qiman was surprised, and said incomprehensibly: "When did you guess that she was a hungry ghost, and since you can see it, why do you want to take risks?"
"Guessed a little before. Lin Yi untied the hemp ropes on the man's hands and feet, checked their pulses, and replied casually, "I dare to be sure when I see her today." ”
"What do you mean?" Zhao Qiman frowned, squatted down beside him, and inadvertently saw his white chest, his face turned red, and he turned his head. After a while, I couldn't help but turn my head and sneak a second look.
Lin Yi pretended not to notice, sat on the ground, raised his hand to support his chin, blocked his chest as if nothing happened, and said, "Because things are too coincidental." ”
"Qiao?"
"That day, Senior Brother Zhang and I just came out of your gambling house, and we met Xianglan jumping into the river, and then went back to tell the master, and went into the city overnight. After that, we arrived at Xu's Mansion and didn't see anyone for a long time, until Commander Zuo entered the backyard with Xianglan, and the hungry ghost appeared out of thin air. ”
Lin Yiyue said that Zhao Qiman was more and more shocked, and his expression gradually froze, revealing uneasiness.
"After a hard battle, you finally got rid of the hungry ghosts, and you launched a sneak attack, not only killing Senior Sister Han, but also letting the hungry ghosts go. Lin Yi's eyes stared at Zhao Qiman's heart, and he said with resentment: "Master took us to sneak into the city, without alarming anyone, but Zuo Shifei was able to rush to Xu's mansion in time, I thought it was strange at first." Later, he came out of the courtyard with his men, and did not tell us that the hungry ghost was changed by the maid, maybe he was in a hurry, or maybe he had already colluded with the hungry ghost. ”
"If that's the case, then why did he sacrifice the lives of the defenders in vain?" Lin Yi was confused, paused and said, "I'll ask you later." ”
Zhao Qiman smiled awkwardly, his eyes dodged, and he said weakly: "Ahaha, what do you think so, you are just guessing ......"
"Really?" Lin Yi was noncommittal, and said to himself: "There is another thing that is very strange, where did you know the method of cracking the square cone?"
Seeing that Zhao Qiman was about to interject, Lin Yi waved his hand to interrupt, moved his body, so that he could see the expression on her face clearly by the light, carefully checked her every move on her face, and said slowly: "I want to ask you a few questions." ”
"Cut, do I have to answer?" Zhao Qiman raised his chin arrogantly, but cold sweat oozed from his forehead because of nervousness, and his heart was pounding.
"It's okay, you don't have to answer, I ask, you just listen. Lin Yi smiled on his shoulders, looking very gentle.
"Miss Zhao, let me ask you, did you recognize me and Senior Brother Zhang in the gambling house that day?" Seeing her cheek muscles twitching slightly, she knew in her heart, "Oh, you recognize it...... Do you recognize me...... It seems that it is not, it should be Senior Brother Zhang, after all, he often goes to those places. Noticing the panic and shock on Zhao Qiman's face, Lin Yi continued to ask, "Did you arrange Xianglan's jumping into the river...... Be...... If so, she would have been a hungry ghost by then...... You guessed it right...... Is it okay to collude with you?"
Zhao Qiman frowned, his expression flashed, Lin Yi nodded and said, "It should be like this, you have already colluded...... Why did Zuo Shifei sacrifice the lives of his subordinates in order to make the hungry ghosts devour flesh and blood and become stronger...... Oh, that's right...... But why did he do it, because of the money...... Well, no?...... That's wanting to be promoted...... Neither is it right...... Was it coercion...... I see!"
Zhao Qiman's face was pale, his whole body trembled into a sieve, he looked at him in disbelief, and trembled: "How did you guess, I obviously didn't say anything!"
"I told you you don't have to speak. Lin Yi smiled slightly. But this smile fell in Zhao Qiman's eyes, but he looked like a demon who could read minds.
Lin Yi stared at her face and said, "Then let's continue...... Was Zuo right or wrong coerced by the Green Gang...... No, I don't think you're able to fight the defenders...... The one who dares to be the enemy of the spirit officer is not from the north...... Is it the Northern Ghost Army...... Wrong...... Then the Immortal Teaching...... It's really them!"
Lin Yi slammed the ground and said angrily: "Why are there their shadows everywhere!"
In the distance, Xianglan's dull voice came: "You reptile, you're quite clever." ”
Lin Yi didn't bother with it, took a deep breath, slowly exhaled it, and after stabilizing his emotions, he then asked, "Is the method of cracking the square cone told you by the Immortal Sect...... Be...... Was the Immortal Sect present at the time...... Not there, huh?"
"What did the Immortal Sect tell you?" Lin Yi rubbed his chin and pondered, "Do you have any special contact information...... Wrong...... That is to say, there are several ways to crack the magic weapon in advance...... Isn't that right?"
Seeing that Lin Yi couldn't ask anymore, Zhao Qiman finally breathed a sigh of relief, showed a triumphant smile, and said happily: "Hmph, it seems that you can only guess here." ”
But then a sentence made her heart fall to the bottom.
"Isn't the person who told you the Immortal Sect?"
Lin Yi was engrossed, and when he saw Zhao Qiman unconsciously, he raised his hands, leaned back, and said secretly: If you want to cover up and avoid me, you must be right. He confirmed, "Yes...... This is the man who connects you with the Immortal Cult...... Oh, a character like a herald. ”
"Who is this person?" Because the possibilities were too wide, Lin Yi could only ask directly.
"Huh?" Zhao Qiman clenched his arms and sneered: "Hehe, do you think I will tell you?"
Lin Yi didn't ask, shook his body, thought to himself, but he never thought of a clue, and gradually felt a little anxious, holding his head and moaning in pain.
Seeing that he was uncomfortable and confused, Zhao Qiman was secretly happy in his heart, raised his eyebrows, gloated, as if he had finally won a move, and said sarcastically: "If you are smart, you can't guess it anymore." ”
"That's right!" After a moment, Lin Yi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and hurriedly asked, "Wei Wenbin?"
Seeing an imperceptible snicker on the corner of Zhao Qiman's mouth, he was greatly disappointed, lowered his head with a depressed expression, and said to himself, "It's not." ”
"No way. Zhao Qiman was proud, and even hummed a little song, just now he was too aggrieved, and he guessed a lot of secrets by this kid, and he didn't know what weird methods he used, which was terrifying.
"Miss Zhao. Lin Yi raised his head with a sad face, and said slowly: "How many people have given orders, are there a lot...... Not much...... Is there only one?"
Zhao Qiman opened his mouth and was stunned, and Lin Yiken said, "There is only one ...... Is he a man?"
Zhao Qiman's fingers jumped slightly, and his eyes were vigilant.
Lin Yiwan smiled: "Man." ”
"Are you a demon!" Zhao Qiman was so frightened that he retreated again and again. Lin Yi hurriedly grabbed her and continued to ask, "Are you familiar with him...... Not very familiar...... He's older than you...... No...... Smaller than you...... No, that's about the same age...... Well, that's right. ”
Zhao Qiman was grabbed by his hand, there was nowhere to run, shaking his head tremblingly, listening to him ask the last question: "Then this person-do I know?"
Zhao Qiman's eyes widened, his pupils dilated, and his back was soaked with cold sweat. Lin Yi slowly put his face on it, and said indifferently: "You are nervous and afraid, which means that I guessed again." ”
"Ahh
Xianglan said softly: "Miss Zhao, this person is too dangerous, you might as well come to your sister, and your sister will protect you." ”
Zhao Qiman hurriedly shook his head, where would he go!
"Among the people you know, and I know......" Lin Yi stood firm and said to himself, "It can only be in the Lingguan Mansion...... I'm the same age as you, and I know you...... It should be Master Luo's apprentice...... Or a man...... There are only a few. ”
The answer is imminent.
Just as Lin Yi wanted to continue asking, the two middle-aged men on the ground woke up with a sigh, and as soon as they opened their eyes, they let out a few strange screams and cringed, "Where is this?"
A man lay on the ground and cried: "Uncle Qinggang spares my life, I just lost dozens of silver, and I don't have any money to give, go home and find my mother-in-law to get it, I must give it with both hands!"
Another man looked at the crypt and said in a panic, "Could it be that this is the Qinggang dungeon, how do they want to torture me?"
Lin Yi comforted loudly: "Two big brothers, don't be afraid, this is not the Qinggang dungeon. ”
"Ah, there are still people!" the men shouted when they heard the sound of it, and they danced in fright. Lin Yi spoke softly, worried and scared them again, "Two big brothers, I, like you, are trapped here. ”
The men's eyes rolled wildly, looking around, and finally saw Lin Yi standing not far away, and saw that it was a hairy boy, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately, he saw a young woman sitting behind him, and said strangely: "Huh?"
"Oh, this is the eldest lady of the Green Gang, who is also trapped in the crypt. Lin Yi explained in order to calm their emotions.
But as soon as he finished the introduction, his brain teaser was spinning and he felt that he had said the wrong thing!
