Chapter 303: The Escaped Octopus
"This ...... Friend," Jiang Yinchen said with a polite smile on his face: "Can you give me a face and let it go?"
The man looked at Jiang Yinchen, did not step forward, and had no intention of continuing to fight.
Not only was Yue Qingli a little unsure of what this person meant, but even Jiang Yinchen was confused, this person had fought with that octopus before, but now he didn't fight with him.
If he knows this person, it is better to say it, which proves that this person is here to help them.
But the problem is that whether it is himself, Yue Qingli, or Duan Mo, they have no impression of this person.
Although they have more contact with people on weekdays, they also have their own set of skills to recognize people, if they have seen this person before, it is impossible not to recognize them now.
Unless this person didn't have such a face before.
But come to think of it, it's also impossible.
Although there are indeed people in the Immortal Gate who can use spells to change their faces, a person's behavior and habits cannot be changed.
They recognize people, and what they look at is not the face, but the behavior and habits of this person, and the way he makes moves, but the three of them looked at it for a long time, but they couldn't find a familiar place in this person.
This is enough to prove that the three of them don't know this person.
Is it possible that such a person is here to help them?
Jiang Yinchen was a little puzzled.
He thought it was unlikely, but the previous behavior of this person brought them a sense of confusion.
After all, before the octopus released Xuanrui, this person hid part of his strength and did not force the octopus to death.
Only when the octopus wants to give up trying to persuade them to help it does it slightly release some of its strength and push the octopus into a corner.
In this case, the octopus is very flustered, so he can only choose to ask them for help.
Moreover, when the octopus asked them for help, this man never opened his mouth to stop him, but after the octopus released Xuanrui, this man showed his true strength and cut off the four claws of the octopus at once.
If this person hadn't come to help them, the octopus wouldn't have believed it.
Sure enough, the octopus, which had recovered a little at this time, was also yelling: "You guys!"
But the man said, "No." ”
It was the first time the man had spoken since the octopus began to stop him.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Jiang Yinchen was even more sure that they didn't know this person.
Because they know each other, then at least the sound is familiar.
But when the man spoke, they were even more sure that they didn't know anyone.
Then Jiang Yinchen was even more curious, since none of them knew this person, why did he act like he was helping them before?
He couldn't figure it out.
And at this time, Mo's voice also sounded: "We don't know him." ”
Although Duan Mo opened his mouth to speak, the octopus didn't believe anyone now, and just stared at a few people.
Yue Qingli was checking whether Xuan Rui had any injuries on her body at this time.
Before Xuanrui was taken away by an octopus, she was very worried, and when she saw Xuanrui at this time, she finally relaxed a little.
But seeing that Xuan Rui had been in a coma all the time and hadn't woken up, she was still a little anxious, I didn't know if she was asleep now, or if she was stuck in a dream and didn't come out for a long time.
was in a hurry, and the little ball in his arms seemed to sense something and came out.
Seeing Xiao Wenzi come out, Yue Qingli breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Xiao Maruko was a little useless before, but at this time, except for Xiao Maruko, there seems to be no one else to count on.
Jiang Yinchen and Duan Mo were basically focusing on that person and the octopus now, and it was better for Yue Qingli not to disturb them at this time.
On the other side,
The octopus only has two claws left, which means that its strength has been greatly reduced, and it can't do anything at this time.
But Jiang Yinchen and the others didn't dare to take it lightly.
After all, they were only pitted by this octopus before.
Although the person on the other side didn't do anything at this time, no one could say whether this person was helping them or not.
If it's to help them, even if they don't know each other, then it's considered multiple friends, but if this person has other purposes, then it's hard to say.
At this moment, the man who had been silent for a large number of Jiang Yinchen suddenly spoke: "The senior disciple of the Underworld Bone Sect is nothing more than that. ”
Since he said so, then he also knows Jiang Yinchen.
But Jiang Yinchen never had any impression of him. But that doesn't stop him from saying, "You know me?"
The man laughed, "I know you, but you don't know me." ”
Since he said this, then it proves that he only knew him somewhere, but the decision could not be something he was involved in, after all, as long as it was someone he had met, he would still recognize it.
After all, although he is the great disciple of the Underworld Bone Sect, he is only a disciple, and it is impossible for so many people to know him. He's not narcissistic enough yet.
After the man finished speaking, he said directly: "You don't have to think too much, I actually came today for the things in that box." It's not to help you. ”
He said this suddenly, which made Jiang Yinchen a little surprised.
Although he had been thinking about whether this person was here to help him, he had been thinking about it in his heart all the time, and he didn't say it, how did this person know what he was thinking?
The man no longer paid attention to him, but looked at the octopus: "That octopus is doing a lot of evil here, why don't you kill it directly?"
When the octopus heard this, he was immediately annoyed.
But it already knew that it couldn't beat the person in front of it, and the only bargaining chip was taken away, and if they really wanted to kill themselves at this time, then they would really be dead.
So it hurriedly said, "Wait, don't kill me!"
The man smiled and said, "Why didn't I kill you?"
Yue Qingli frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
Although the octopus looked pitiful at this time, they did not forget that the people in the village had been tricked by the octopus to get to the island, and then it was thrown into this hole to help it find its way.
Although it is not known whether the octopus directly killed people, there are not a few people who died because of it.
It can be said that if there were no octopuses, then many people in the village would not have to die.
It's just that the octopus looks a little pitiful like this at this time.
But Yue Qingli directly twisted his face.
She didn't want to let the octopus get away with it just because it looked pitiful, after all, the octopus didn't know what else to do next.
And the unconscious Xuan Rui is still lying in front of him, if he really begs for mercy for the octopus, Yue Qingli will have no face to face Xuan Rui.
The octopus looked around and found that the few people who could help it speak were either indifferent on their faces, or they turned their faces away and ignored it at all, and suddenly wanted to cry without tears.
Think that it has been at the bottom of the sea for so many years, but here today it is going to die?
The man was not in a hurry to kill the octopus, but asked, "I have another question for you here, and if you can answer it, maybe I won't kill you." ”
When the octopus heard this, he was immediately overjoyed: "What's the problem, you ask!"
The anxious appearance does not look like a person who has been threatened with life and death at all.
However, although the octopus is so desperate to seek a chance to live, it is not stupid enough to think that this person will definitely let it go, so on the surface it is begging for mercy, but in fact, it is looking around to see if there is any way to escape from here.
The man's eyes weren't always fixed on the octopus, and the octopus only heard him ask, "Where did you hear about this box on this island?"
The octopus froze, it didn't remember anyone telling it, as if it had known it all along.
When the man saw the octopus's stunned appearance, he seemed to think of something, so he changed the question: "Do you know what is in the box?"
After asking this question, the man didn't seem to need an answer from the octopus, but lowered his gaze slightly, as if he was thinking.
Seeing this, the octopus felt that this was a rare opportunity.
At this time, the man didn't look at himself, and Yue Qingli was taking care of Xuanrui, although he was paying attention to the movement here, he wouldn't catch himself so quickly.
At least two of them, probably thinking that in front of that person, the octopus would not run away at all, so they didn't take much precautions.
The octopus took advantage of this rare opportunity and jumped directly into a narrow passage that he had just discovered and escaped.
But Yue Qingli's first reaction was not to chase after him immediately, but to look at Jiang Yinchen.
Jiang Yinchen didn't mean to chase it, just looked at the man in black in front of him.
The man in black just turned his head to look at the fleeing octopus, and then returned his gaze to Jiang Yinchen's body.
"I know what you're here for, but you haven't even entered the East China Sea now, how can you find the Pearl of the East China Sea?"
Jiang Yinchen was taken aback.
They wanted to go to the land of the East China Sea to find the Pearl of the East China Sea, but no one else had ever said anything about this except to inform the master, how did this person know?
Duan Mo also looked at the man with some vigilance at this time.
They knew almost nothing about the man, but the man seemed to be familiar with them.
Although this person's current illness has not broken Duan Mo's identity, Duan Mo has a hunch that this person actually knows the identity of each of them.
For such a mysterious person, they had to be on guard.
But this person has a very indifferent attitude, neither like a fortification, but also does not intend to reveal too much identity.
Jiang Yinchen could only ask, "Do you know how to enter the land of the East China Sea?"
The man smiled, "I don't know. ”
The smile on Jiang Yinchen's face suddenly dispersed a lot. But then the man added, "But I know how to find clues." ”
Jiang Yinchen was not in a hurry to ask this, but asked, "How do you know that we are going to find the Pearl of the East China Sea?"
