Yu Laoqi said in a trembling voice: "Brother Feng, Brother Feng, I, everything I said is the truth."
Lu Feng snorted and said, "How can I prove that what you said is the truth?"
Yu Laoqi was speechless.
I exclaimed and said coldly: "Old Qi, if what you said is not true, then you will be bitten by this golden snake in the future, how about that?"
After saying these words, Yu Laoqi's expression changed drastically. Just now, he had been bitten by this golden snake and almost died. He knew the poison of this golden snake very well.
Yu Lao Qi lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then suddenly knelt down in front of Lu Feng, kowtowed to the ground with his head, making a thumping sound, and kept saying: "Lao Qi deserves to die, Lao Qi deserves to die. Lao Qi actually knows that Wang Jiao and the others whereabouts."
After saying this sentence, Lu Feng raised his eyebrows. Xu Miaofeng and I were both horrified and moved.
Liang Tianyi was curious in his heart, but his face remained calm.
Xu Miaofeng and I looked at each other and said, "It seems like this kid really knows some secrets."
So, we both focused on Lao Qi to see how he would answer.
At this time, Lu Feng said in a deep voice: "Since you know, then you should do it one by one in front of these people."
Yu Laoqi nodded, raised his eyes, looked around, and then said: "Brother Feng, in fact, I have never been reused by Wang Jiao in the past few years. The last time Shouhou rebelled, he came to me, but I I was cowardly and refused.”
When Lu Feng heard this, he asked, "What about Lu Liang?"
"Lü Liang, Lu Liang..." Yu Laoqi paused and said, "Brother Liang couldn't stand the bewitchment of Shou Hou. He actually agreed to Shou Hou's invitation and came to Snake Island together."
"What?" Lu Feng trembled, turned to look at me, and asked Lao Qi: "When was the last time you saw Lu Liang?"
"The last time we met was-" Yu Laoqi thought for a moment and said, "That must have been half a month ago. I haven't seen him since then."
Lu Feng sighed helplessly, "People are so weak that Lu Liang died because of greed. It's so sad."
"Brother Feng, people cannot be resurrected after death. I feel sorry for you and accept the change." I comforted him.
"I'm becoming more and more curious now, what exactly is in the ancient tomb?" Lu Feng said.
"The things hidden in the ancient tomb have great power. If they are stolen by bad people, I am afraid it will cause suffering for the people, ruin the people, and cause chaos in the world." I said.
"The world is in chaos?" Lu Feng looked at me doubtfully and said, "It's getting more and more limitless. What else can stir up the world in chaos?"
"Brother Feng, we have arrived on the island anyway. You will know when you get to the ancient tomb."
Lu Feng stopped talking, turned to look at Yu Laoqi, and asked, "Tell me, how much do you still know?"
"Brother Feng, I really don't know much. In fact, in the past few years, I have been just a little follower of Wang Jiao."
Lu Feng said loudly: "Then are you planning to rob the tomb this time?"
Yu Laoqi nodded and said, "Yes, Brother Feng."
Lu Feng said: "Isn't it over now? Since you have already taken action, please tell me where your troops are?"
Yu Laoqi smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Feng, if I knew where they were, would I still suffer here?" At that moment, Yu Laoqi said again: "Brother Feng, to tell you the truth, we got there a day earlier than you. The island, but as soon as we landed on the island, we encountered a venomous snake, and as a result, everyone fled in all directions, and their destination has long been lost.”
I couldn't help but ask: "So you are here alone these days?"
Yu Laoqi smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "Yes."
Old Eight and Old Nine were both surprised: "How did you survive?"
Yu Laoqi tilted his head and recalled slowly. After a while, Yu Laoqi's face twitched, as if he remembered what happened not long ago, and there was lingering fear on his face. Just listen to Yu Laoqi slowly say: "Two days ago, when Wang Jiao took us to log in, a militiaman who responded to us told us that we must not look at the snakes here. The more you look at them, the more likely they will be. Bitten.”
"Oddly enough, along the way, we saw snakes everywhere on the trees and on the roadside, but none of them were attacked. However, a few brothers were curious and took one look at the snake on the tree, and they immediately died on the ground. "Yu Laoqi said, "We were in a big mess at that time. I was also extremely scared. Not long after, those brothers were already dead on the ground."
Speaking of this, Yu Laoqi stopped, with a trace of sadness on his face, as if he was remembering the scene of that day.
I frowned and said, "You said there are militiamen to help you?"
Xu Miaofeng asked the same question and looked at Yu Laoqi with confusion.
Yu Laoqi sighed and said slowly: "Yes, I think you also know that Wang Jiao has a brother named Wang Long, who serves as the militia captain on Snake Island. That militia was sent by Wang Long."
My pupils slowly contracted, and I said slowly: "I didn't expect that this Wang Long is really a bastard who knows people and faces but doesn't know his heart."
Yu Laoqi nodded slowly, with a solemn expression on his face, and said: "Actually, the relationship between Wang Long and Wang Jiao has never been good. Before this, Wang Long was indeed not in cahoots with Wang Jiao."
"Oh? So, Wang Long has a hidden agenda for helping Wang Jiao this time?"
Yu Laoqi nodded and said: "Wang Long is actually quite a good person. He and Wang Jiao have always been at odds with each other. As long as he is on the island, Wang Jiao will not have the courage to go to the island."
"Then why did it change later?"
"Because Wang Jiao has caught Wang Long's hand. I heard that Wang Long has an illegitimate child outside."
"What?" Everyone couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts.
Lu Feng said slowly: "So, Wang Long only agreed to cooperate with him because he was caught by Wang Jiao?"
Yu Laoqi nodded and said: "Yes, Brother Feng." After a pause, Yu Laoqi continued: "Wang Long initially only promised to let Wang Jiao and the others go to the island, and did not care about anything else, but he did not expect that, Slender Monkey and the others got on board first. Although your plan was very thorough, you were not able to hide it from Wang Long. In order to prevent any accidents, he ordered the island to be sealed off. Who would have thought that you would still escape."
I frowned and said, "After we leave, are you going to go to the island?"
Yu Laoqi said slowly: "On the night you returned to the base, Wang Jiao had already received the news and planned to rush over overnight, but unexpectedly encountered a storm and had to put it on hold."
"During this period, there has been no movement from you?"
"What kind of movement can there be? This island has been turned upside down by you. Who has the courage?" Yu Laoqi replied.
"What about Wang Lung?" I asked.
When asked about the key point this time, everyone's eyes fell on Yu Lao Qi's face.
Yu Laoqi coughed and said: "Hey, you've got the point right. Although we can't get to the island, Wang Long has always been on the island. According to our original plan, Wang Long transferred the militiamen on the island. It was so that we could land on the island smoothly, but who would have thought that the plan could not keep up with the changes, and now Wang Lung has no men to use."
"As far as I know, after you left, Wang Long began to secretly search for clues. He took several people into the Storm Cape, but I don't know how deep he went and what he found." Yu Laoqi said: " However, a few days ago, Wang Jiao suddenly received a call saying that he had something important to tell you, so he summoned us to rush to Snake Island together."
I actually have a vague feeling that Wang Long has probably found the location of the undersea tomb. It seems that something big may happen this time.
My eyes flashed and I said slowly: "So, your people have already entered the ancient tomb?"
Yu Laoqi said: "There are no ancient tombs. Didn't I tell you that we encountered snakes as soon as we landed on the island and they all ran away." After a pause, Yu Laoqi said again: "Just now I saw There was a thick smoke coming from outside the snake cave, and for some reason, I came out to check, and unexpectedly I saw Brother Feng here."
Lu Feng's face was serious and he said in a deep voice: "You saw me and ran away with your life. I think you have a guilty conscience?"
Yu Lao Qi's face turned pale and he said: "Lao Qi didn't dare. I knew I was shameless and ran away when I saw Brother Feng."
Lu Feng snorted again and said: "You take us to find Wang Jiao now, otherwise, hehe -"
Yu Laoqi was overjoyed when he heard this. He knew that there was something in Lu Feng's words, so he had already forgiven himself. He kowtowed on the ground and said, "Thank you, Brother Feng."
Lu Feng said solemnly: "You lead the way."
Yu Laoqi agreed and stood up. He wandered around and felt hesitantly on his face.
My eyes flashed and I said slowly: "Are you looking for someone?"
"Yeah, I have an accomplice."
"Accomplice? Where has he gone?"
Yu Laoqi blinked his eyes and said: "I'm confused too. I was still on this boat just now, and I can't see it after I went out for a while." After a pause, Yu Laoqi said: "Forget it, leave him alone. Let's get on this boat. I don't know how deep this water hole is. We have to hurry up."
Everyone immediately got on the boat.
After seven people were seated in this small boat, it was already very tight.
Lu Feng sat at the bow of the boat, and Yu Laoqi sat at the back.
The eight and nine old men picked up the oars and rowed. Liang Tianyi sat behind me and Xu Miaofeng, staring forward.
I don't know why, but there is always a faint feeling of uneasiness in my heart.
I raised my head and looked at Xu Miaofeng, only to see her looking into the darkness of the water cave ahead. Under the illumination of the flashlight, the water surface was shimmering with microwaves, but there was nothing unusual about it.
Xu Miaofeng stretched out a catkin and touched my elbow lightly. I turned around quickly and looked at her with questions in my eyes.
Xu Miaofeng whispered softly: "I feel that what Yu Lao Qi said is not entirely true. We must be careful."
I was also quite puzzled that Xu Miaofeng could actually lip-read, and I didn't expect that it would come in handy in this dark and deep water cave. Fortunately, my grandfather taught me some lip reading skills, and I could barely respond with a few words.
So, I also replied with lip language: "Yes, I also feel something is not right. We both need to be careful."
We were talking through lip language behind everyone, and no one knew about it. But in front of us, Liang Tianyi held a flashlight and looked sideways at the slightly shaking reflections of me and Xu Miaofeng in the water beside him.
Liang Tianyi's pupils slowly shrank, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
