Chapter 267: Dangerous Journey (1/5)
The black fox opened his mouth again, and he did tell Xiao Suifeng a lot of things that Shen Lun didn't know before. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Shen Lun still disappeared after experiencing the encirclement and suppression jointly launched by the black fox and other horse thieves who secretly contacted the border army of the Dakang court, and at this point, the black fox did not lie when he first saw Xiao Suifeng.
The black fox only knew that Shen Lun did not die in the encirclement and suppression of the border army, and even those of Shen Lun's real henchmen who had followed him from the beginning did not fall into it, but where Shen Lun fled after that, the black fox did not know.
In fact, it was precisely this point that the black fox and several other horse thieves at that time were still frightened for a long time after this incident, for fear that Shen Lun would bring someone back and retaliate against them, but in the end, such a thing fortunately never happened, and over time, the black fox also forgot about Shen Lun's threat.
For the news that the black fox said at this moment, Xiao Suifeng did not doubt his authenticity, after all, the relationship between the black fox and Shen Lun should be friend or foe, and there was no need for the black fox to risk his life to deceive Xiao Suifeng for a horse thief who had suppressed him fiercely. Moreover, Xiao Suifeng at this moment is also in control of the life of the black fox, and lying is undoubtedly not a wise choice for the black fox.
At this moment, what the black fox said, nine times out of ten, is true.
Among them, although Shen Lun's whereabouts are still unknown, the black fox has pointed out two directions for Xiao Suifeng's investigation.
This first one is naturally the sect that Shen Lun stayed in before he became a horse thief, that is, the Nandou Temple in the mouth of the black fox.
Xiao Suifeng has not forgotten the hatred he has carried for more than ten years, and he has been investigating the case of the year, the bloody case of the Xiao family back then, and the possible perpetrators of the crime are naturally still from the rivers and lakes, after all, the Xiao family is the force of the rivers and lakes, and those killers are also here for the Xiao family's gods.
Therefore, in the years before Xiao Suifeng and Ning Xufeng's First World War, although he did not show his reputation in the rivers and lakes, the investigation of the large and small forces in the rivers and lakes has not been interrupted for a moment, especially those sect forces that have the strength and ability to sit down on the Xiao family's bloody case, and they are even more focused on investigation.
However, Xiao Suifeng had never heard of the Nandou Temple in the mouth of the black fox.
The rivers and lakes are extremely large, and the waters of the rivers and lakes are even more unfathomable, and the large and small sects are innumerable, so it is naturally impossible for Xiao Suifeng to know all of them and hear them all.
However, according to the Black Fox, when Shen Lun was expelled from the Nandou Temple, he was a cultivator with a powerful realm.
The cultivation of the potential realm is not high, and in the eyes of Xiao Suifeng at the moment, he is not a master, but looking at the entire rivers and lakes, the martial artist of the potential realm cultivation is definitely a master, and the Nandou Temple can expel Shen Lun, proving that in the Nandou Temple, there are bound to be people who are stronger than Shen Lun's martial arts realm.
A sect has two or even more masters of the potential realm, even if it is not the famous Jianghu faction, but no matter what, it is impossible to fall into a small sect that no one knows. Just like today's Jianghu martial arts, if there are a few potential realm masters in the sect, even if they are still not in the stream, they should have some fame, and it is impossible not to have any traces.
Therefore, Xiao Suifeng has been wandering in the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, and he has never heard of this Nandou Temple, and the reason for this is nothing more than those two.
Or, this Nandou Temple is a hidden sect that does not enter the world, cultivating wholeheartedly, not asking about world affairs, living a closed life, not participating in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and the affairs of the world, and it is also not known.
This possibility is naturally there, in the rivers and lakes, there are hidden masters, and naturally there are hidden sects.
As for the second possibility, that is, the so-called Nandou Temple has long been dilapidated and destroyed.
According to the black fox, Shen Lun became a horse thief more than 20 years ago, and in the past 20 years, even if it is the bloody case of the Xiao family, it has been nearly ten years, during this period, the world is in the sea, and no one can know what will happen.
The Nandou Temple may have existed originally, but during this period, it may have been destroyed for some reason, but this situation is not an uncommon thing in the rivers and lakes.
At that time, the Xiao family was also one of the famous families in the Great Wilderness, but it was also destroyed overnight by a strong enemy, leaving only his vein of fireworks to be handed down. What will happen to the Xiao family is naturally likely to happen to the sect forces behind it.
Moreover, if this is the case, the time when the Nandou Temple disappeared is likely to be before the Xiao family tragedy, so when Xiao Suifeng traveled in the rivers and lakes later, there was no trace.
This is a very normal idea, and it is no wonder that people are indifferent.
Just like the tragedy of the Xiao family, it was also a sensation back then, but more than ten years later, how many people still remember it? If it weren't for Xiao Suifeng, the descendant of the Xiao family who appeared in the sky, and the mysterious disappearance but reappearance of the gods and ghosts, I am afraid that it would have been completely forgotten.
If the Xiao family is like this, then the Nandou Temple, I'm afraid it may also be the same situation.
It's just that no matter what the situation is, this Nandou Temple is undoubtedly a clue that can continue to be traced for Xiao Suifeng at the moment, and naturally it can't be let go.
Moreover, this clue should be relatively easy to trace, after all, if you want to disappear, it is always impossible to disappear so completely, whether it is really destroyed, or still hidden, as long as you have the intention to trace, there will always be clues.
In addition to the clues of the Nandou Temple, another clue provided by the black fox to Xiao Suifeng was the secret power that Shen Lun had been secretly supporting him since he became a horse thief.
Compared with the Nandou Temple, this secret force is undoubtedly deeper involved with Shen Lun, Shen Lun is likely to be involved in this force after his horse thief gang was wiped out, and if the tragedy of the Xiao family was really committed by Shen Lun, then the hidden force behind Shen Lun, nine times out of ten, will not be able to get rid of it.
Therefore, the appearance of this hidden force made Xiao Suifeng's heart feel slightly cold.
It's just that the black fox and Shen Lun have been dealing with each other for so long, and they have been fighting openly and secretly for more than ten years, and they only know that there is such a force behind Shen Lun, but the black fox doesn't know the real details of this force.
It can be seen that what this power is hidden is also very deep, and it is enough to see that the black fox has laid so many hidden piles under Shen Lun's hands but can't find out.
Xiao Suifeng was sad in his heart, but he also felt keenly that the blood feud he was carrying was likely to fall on this hidden power.
Moreover, since Xiao Suifeng came down from Ning Xufeng, from the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect to Linhai City to the last imperial capital Tiantai Mansion, Xiao Suifeng has always felt that there is a dark curtain around him that is difficult to see, as if he has always had a hidden strength watching his every move, and during this period, he even launched an attack on himself more than once.
And this force has been hidden in the dark, hiding his head and tail and not coming forward, at this moment, Xiao Suifeng listened to the black fox say this, and couldn't help but doubt, the power that supported Shen Lun in the black fox's mouth, and the power that secretly calculated himself, perhaps, it was just one share.
Of course, Xiao Suifeng also understands that this idea is just Xiao Suifeng's own speculation after all, and whether it has anything to do with it after decades of separation needs to be carefully traced in the future before it can be determined.
It's just that whether it is the power behind Shen Lun or the forces secretly calculating themselves, they have always been hidden deep in the darkness, and they don't come forward, how easy is it to pull out their tails?
......
After the black fox told Xiao Suifeng everything he knew about Shen Lun, he wisely chose to shut up.
Although at this moment, the black fox wanted to say that Xiao Suifeng had told him all the news of Shen Lun without reservation, forget the previous conflict and unhappiness between the two, and let himself go.
But the black fox is a smart person, and a smart person is naturally able to see the actual situation clearly.
Xiao Suifeng had just gotten this information at the moment, and it was obvious in his heart that it would take some time to accept and digest it, and what requirements he put forward at this time might not be able to get a good result.
And the situation is not much different from what the black fox thought, after listening to the black fox's words, Xiao Suifeng couldn't help but fall into silence for a long time, turned around and walked out of the cave without saying a word, leaving only the black fox and Linglong in the cave.
At this moment, the black fox can move, but the meridians on his body are still sealed by Xiao Suifeng, and his cultivation cannot be mobilized in the slightest, so even if Linglong is left alone to face him, it will not pose any threat.
Linglong does not have the hatred that Xiao Suifeng carries, and in fact does not have a positive conflict with the black fox, but compared to Xiao Suifeng, Linglong's view of good and evil obviously needs to be corrected, in her eyes, since the black fox is a horse thief, it is naturally the black side, and she is from the famous family of the Hundred Flowers Valley, so she is naturally white, good and evil are not separated, black and white are not separated, so Linglong will naturally not give the black fox a good face when facing the black fox.
Moreover, not to mention, the black fox once seriously injured Xiao Suifeng, speaking of which is Xiao Suifeng's enemy, at this moment Linglong is standing on Xiao Suifeng's whip, and the black fox is even more opposed.
Seeing the black fox glaring at herself, as if she wanted to say something, Linglong snorted lightly, but she directly left a few pieces of roasted wild boar meat for the black fox, so she also turned around and walked outside the cave.
The black fox obviously had something to say, but Linglong didn't have the meaning to listen.
Linglong is not very old, but the experience of the rivers and lakes is not small, and she naturally knows in her heart that characters like the black fox cannot be taken lightly at any time, although the black fox at this moment seems to have fallen into their hands, and life and death are also under their control, but they still can't be careless.
As for the black fox's words, he can't believe them all, this is a black-bellied and cunning fox, who knows what calculations and conspiracies are hidden in the words?
Although Linglong boasted that she would not be easily fooled, she was too lazy to discern it, so she just didn't listen.
Just like in the words that the black fox and Xiao Suifeng said just now, Linglong thought in her heart that since the black fox said it so simply, there must be some other purposes mixed in it. It's just that Xiao Suifeng attaches great importance to this information, and she doesn't have much to say.
Watching Linglong turn away, the black fox who just wanted to open his mouth and probe two delicate sentences couldn't help but open his mouth slightly, and finally shook his head helplessly.
In fact, what Black Fox and Xiao Suifeng said was the truth.
The black fox has dealt with Shen Lun for so many years, but after all, he is not Shen Lun, nor is he Shen Lun's confidant, and he naturally can't fully grasp Shen Lun's secret things, as far as he knows now, he also took great pains to investigate and install people, the original purpose was to find Shen Lun's weakness to deal with him, but now it is naturally useless, and it happened to be all told to Xiao Suifeng.
But although the words are all true, but Linglong's judgment is not wrong, the reason why the black fox said so simply and so thoroughly, on the one hand, it is naturally forced by the situation, but on the other hand, it does have another purpose.
The black fox is black and cunning by nature, and is cautious and afraid of death, but even so, the black fox is also a horse thief who has been spanning decades after all, and can stand tall in this Wangshan Plain, in addition to being cunning and cautious, ferocious and ruthless is also essential.
Although the horse thieves under the Black Fox are the most regulated type of horse thieves in Wangshan Plain, they don't know how many crimes and how many lives they have been contaminated with for decades.
The black fox created by the experience of the past few decades is naturally not the kind of person who will easily admit defeat.
Just like the battle with Shen Lun at the beginning, the black fox on the surface was indeed afraid of Shen Lun, and in the face of Shen Lun's aggressiveness, he repeatedly retreated and forbeared.
But what is the final outcome?
It doesn't matter whether Shen Lun is dead or alive now, at least now in this Wangshan Plain, there is also this black fox, the king of horse thieves, but Shen Lun, who was dominant back then, has been buried to the point that almost no one knows.
This is the cunning and black belly of the black fox, which seems to be evading, but it is a hidden killing move, just waiting for the opportunity to come, it will immediately tear off the disguise and give the opponent that fatal blow.
For Shen Lun, the black fox is like this, and for Xiao Suifeng at this moment, the black fox is naturally the same.
The black fox at the moment is in the hands of Xiao Suifeng, what is the ending, whether Xiao Suifeng will bypass him, the black fox himself has no score in his heart.
But even if it is the best result, Xiao Suifeng let him go, this time he suffered heavy losses in Xiao Suifeng's hands, not to mention that his trust and reputation were damaged, and the strength of his subordinates was also greatly weakened.
The black fox knew that Shen Lun was not lying, but the reason why the black fox told Xiao Suifeng all these things was actually to borrow a knife to kill people and bring disaster to the east.
Regardless of the Nandou Temple, the black fox understands that Shen Lun's support behind him is definitely not a simple and easy character, if Xiao Suifeng pursues it, he will really provoke those people, and those people will naturally not let him go easily.
Previously, the black fox announced the relationship between the two identities of Xiao Suifeng and Na Yu Wenfeng, which can be regarded as having calculated Xiao Suifeng once, and this time, it is also another calculation.
The black fox has his own, even if Xiao Suifeng really doesn't let him go this time, his two calculations will inevitably avenge himself.
Can the name of the black fox still be called in vain?(To be continued.) )
