The three of them were moving very fast, and the shadows of the trees around them kept passing by.
Just as the three of them passed through a tall and straight eucalyptus forest, a shrill scream made the three of them stop in their tracks.
"what happened?"
Such a heart-rending sound suddenly sounded in the dead silence of the forest, which was indeed terrifying. Jing Wuchen couldn't help but ask in surprise.
Long Yi took out his spear and looked warily at the direction of the sound.
"Over there." Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows, pointed to a dense forest on the left and said, "There are about thirty Dou Emperors. It should have been the end of the fight between the two sides. When the power of my soul arrived, there were no more There are people standing.”
"Perish together?" Jing Wuchen curled his lips, touched his face and said jokingly, "Such a good thing happened to us, wouldn't all the loot be in vain for us?"
"I always feel like this is too much of a coincidence?"
Hearing Jing Wuchen's words, a trace of hesitation appeared on Long Yi's face. How could they all die so quickly just after hearing the screams?
"This forest is so big that there are countless Dou Emperors fighting at every moment. We just happened to be in the right place at the right time." Jing Wuchen disagreed, "Maybe the voice just now was the last one. It came from the fallen person. Besides, according to Brother Xiao, there are only about thirty corpses, so what's wrong with it?"
"We won't take anything from them. It won't waste much time anyway, so let's go."
What Jing Wuchen said was reasonable, and with the advantage of soul power, Xiao Yan showed no fear and signaled to Long Yi that there was no need to worry.
Seeing Xiao Yan speak, Long Yi nodded obediently, and the three of them walked through the undulating tree canopy and arrived in the dense forest.
As far as the eye can see, the forest is dim and in a mess. There are traces of fighting everywhere. Dozens of corpses are lying on the ground, and blood stains are spattered on the trees and leaves, which bear witness to the past of this place. Experienced a brutal bloodbath.
Not far from the corpse, a demonic beast fell there, its head had been split open, and the demonic core inside was missing.
However, it was not these that caught the attention of Xiao Yan and the others, but the two men in gray under the tree.
The two of them were stacked up and down, one's knife struck the other's neck, nearly halfway in, and the other's sword also penetrated his chest, and the tip of the sword came out through his back, which was shocking.
Under the two people, there was a shiny object half-covered. The three of them took a closer look and saw that this thing the size of a human head turned out to be a six-star magic core.
"This is a huge profit! Haha, I got a six-star magic core and so many Na rings for no reason."
Jing Wuchen's handsome face suddenly lit up with joy, and he shouted that he would go forward to collect the loot.
"Wait!" Xiao Yan stretched out his hand to stop Jing Wuchen's move, bit his lips for a while and frowned slightly, "I don't know why, but I always feel something is wrong when I get here."
"What's wrong? At this glance, you can tell that one party just killed the monster, but they encountered another group of people spying on them. In the fierce fight, both parties ended together." Jing Wuchen felt that Xiao Yan was too careful and continued, "Have we not encountered this before, and ended up with a complete treasure map? What's more, under the detection of your soul power, Brother Xiao, what else can you hide from us?"
"Having said that, I always have lingering palpitations." Xiao Yan's face changed slightly, "This place is too dark, let me see clearly."
After saying that, Xiao Yan flicked his finger, and a ball of flame was suspended in the air, driving away all the darkness, and the eyes of the three people lit up.
"Is Brother Xiao worried about Hun Ying Jue? Only he can escape Brother Xiao's soul power." Jing Wuchen pointed at the corpses in front of him and said, "Look, there is no black air floating around the corpses. It proves that it was not Hun Ying Jue’s doing. Moreover, we have been in the inner siege for so long and we haven’t seen any trace of Hun Ying Jue again. Maybe he has lost track of us.”
Hearing Jing Wuchen's very reasonable words, Long Yi's worry was finally relieved, but Xiao Yan stared at the two men in gray thoughtfully and did not speak.
"Brother Xiao's worry is due to these two men in gray?" Seeing Xiao Yan's silence, Jing Wuchen looked a little embarrassed and kept chattering, "This is even more impossible. Look at the one facing up, his neck is covered. The knife cut off most of it, and the wound was so big. If Hun Ying Jue had used a secret technique, the black energy would never be able to cover it up. And the person whose back was penetrated by the sword could not see clearly even though he was facing down, but there was no black energy in the sword wound. The spread shows that we are worrying too much.”
"It seems that my palpitations are not unfounded." Xiao Yan did not answer Jing Wuchen's words, but his face became more and more solemn, "There is nothing abnormal about the others, but there is something strange about these two."
Jing Wuchen and Long Yi opened their eyes and looked carefully at the same time, but could not find any clues.
"If the two of them died fighting each other, then the one who received such a brutal stabbing in the neck would be bleeding like a fountain." Xiao Yan gritted his silver teeth, feeling more uneasy in his heart, "And from the moment we heard the sound to It only took a few seconds to get here. Logically, the blood should still be fresh, and even gurgling. But now we can see that although there is a large amount of blood on the wound, it still seems less, and the blood is already a bit sticky, obviously He has been dead for a while."
"There is only one explanation for this, and that is that he was stabbed after he was dead. Because the blood has begun to coagulate after the person is dead, the bleeding from the wounds suffered later will not be as bad as before death."
"Ah? Is it really Hun Ying Jue's hands and feet?"
Jing Wuchen and Long Yi were shocked, and upon closer inspection, they found out that what Xiao Yan said was true.
"It's absolutely true that the hands and feet were passive, but it wouldn't be known if it wasn't Hun Ying Jue's hands and feet."
Xiao Yan shrugged, and he became vigilant in his heart. The power of his soul spread instantly, covering a thousand miles around.
"What did you find?"
Long Yi knew Xiao Yan's character well, and as soon as he saw Xiao Yan's expression, he knew that Xiao Yan was already searching around.
"No."
Xiao Yan's answer was straightforward.
"So, only Hun Ying Jue is the most suspect. But what's the benefit of creating this illusion? It won't cause any harm to us."
Jing Wuchen remembered that he had patted his chest and said it was okay, his face turned red, and he asked angrily.
"Sometimes, don't be too quick to judge. There is no reason to offer a treasure, it is either adultery or theft."
Xiao Yan waved his sleeves in the air, and the two men in gray clothes who were next to each other were separated by fighting spirit. The one who was injured by the sword turned around and appeared in front of the three of them with his face facing up.
I saw that this person's face was pale, and there was a faint black energy floating in the seven orifices; but the other one was not abnormal, just an ordinary corpse.
"Holy crap! This is definitely Hun Ying Jue's doing!" Jing Wuchen couldn't hold back the anger in his heart at first sight and jumped up, "That bastard is so vicious, he even made false assumptions and gave up. Let’s drill! If Brother Xiao hadn’t felt this in his heart, maybe we would have fallen into the hands of that bastard!”
"Fortunately, dad found out, otherwise the situation would have been worrying." Long Yi was careful and did not lose his cool despite being angry. He asked the key point, "But why didn't black energy come out of this sword wound?"
"That's right, how could this happen?"
Jing Wuchen also calmed down, his expression covered with shock.
"I guess, after the failed assassination attempt to control the corpse outside the illusion, although Hun Yingjue didn't know whether we knew the black energy of this secret method, he was as careful as a hair and still took this possibility into consideration." Xiao Yan analyzed. , "This three-foot green edge is as thin as a cicada's wing, and the sword wound is not serious. If you want to cover up the wound, it is not difficult."
"I would rather miscalculate ten thousand than miss a single mistake. Hun Ying Jue is indeed an unparalleled genius in assassination." Although the two were enemies, Xiao Yan couldn't help but praise Hun Ying Jue, "If If my guess is correct, Hun Yingjue was cleverly taking advantage of the situation throughout the whole process, so that our suspicions could be minimized."
The two of them understood Xiao Yan's words clearly, but they didn't quite understand what he said later. They looked at each other with confusion written on their faces.
Seeing that the two of them were puzzled, Xiao Yan patiently explained——
"Hun Yingjue must have encountered two groups of people fighting here, and he suddenly had an idea and set up a temporary situation."
"And when there are only two people left or there are not many people left, Hunying Jue will quickly take action, kill them and create an illusion."
"In addition, the light here is dim, the Dou Emperor is facing down, and there is a six-star magic core under him as a temptation. The joy of getting a treasure for nothing at first sight will make too many people become wary, and it will inevitably be difficult to escape. Poisonous hand."
Xiao Yan analyzed the traces of fighting around him in great detail, and even if he didn't guess all of them, he was still very close to it. The more Jing Wuchen and Long Yi heard, the more frightened they became. In the end, both of them couldn't help but hold their breath.
"So, that shrill scream should have come from Hun Ying Jue, not this group of people!"
When Long Yi realized this, he gritted his teeth with hatred. (To be continued. Please search, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
