I was sitting next to Song Feiyan and was paying attention to the situation in front of me. Suddenly, there was a rustling sound above my head.
"Mr. Cheng, be careful!"
Xiaona, who was squatting aside, gave me a warning sound.
I suddenly looked up and saw a black shadow, holding a sharp blade, swooping down towards me.
The sharp blade flashed with a faint cold light and pointed directly at the center of my eyebrows!
I was startled, and I hurriedly raised the King of Martial Whip and crossed it upwards.
There was a clang and sparks flew everywhere!
The black shadow fell to the side, glanced at me coldly, turned around and grabbed Song Feiyan next to him.
"Feiyan, I'm here to save you."
"stop!"
I was taken aback, thinking they were reinforcements coming to rescue Song Feiyan, and rushed towards the man in black.
The man in black was very strong. I was beaten back and forth, and I was tired of dealing with it. At this moment, Xiaona transformed into her own body and joined the battle.
With Xiaona's help, we barely managed to draw a tie with the man in black.
The man in black saw that he couldn't subdue us in a short time, so he feigned a shot and stepped aside.
Before I could react, the man in black turned around, a silver needle flew out of his sleeve, and shot towards Song Feiyan!
Whoosh!
The flying needle was as fast as lightning. Before I could rush over, it had already pierced into Song Feiyan's throat!
Song Feiyan's body convulsed violently, and she was speechless.
Seeing that Song Feiyan was bound to die, the man in black sneered, jumped up, and disappeared deep into the jungle.
"Seinfeld!"
I didn't care about chasing the man in black, so I quickly ran over and helped Song Feiyan up.
"Are you OK?"
Gulu...
Song Feiyan tried hard to open her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, a ball of black blood spurted out.
That silver needle actually contained poison!
I originally thought that the man in black was here to save Song Feiyan, but I didn’t expect that when he appeared this time, he wanted to silence Song Feiyan!
"Song Feiyan, you must hold on!"
I supported Song Feiyan, feeling extremely guilty.
Although this Song Feiyan stole the soul refining pot fragments, his crime was not worthy of death, and there were still many things we had not figured out yet, but now he was killed under my protection, which makes me unable to forgive myself.
Song Feiyan slowly squatted down and wrote something on the ground with trembling hands.
Just halfway through writing, she spat out a mouthful of black blood and fell straight to the ground, eyes wide open.
At the same time, Lonnie and Bai Ze had already dealt with the mandrills and returned. When they saw the situation here, they couldn't help but let out a sigh.
The silver needle was not only highly poisonous, but also had the effect of sealing the soul. Not only was Song Feiyan's throat sealed by the needle, her soul was also directly driven into the underworld.
It is already impossible for us to get other information from her.
"Alas, it seems we were careless."
Lonnie said slowly: "The mastermind behind this released mandrills to attract us, and then deliberately launched a sneak attack on you, pretending to rescue Song Feiyan, but took advantage of our unpreparedness and directly killed Song Feiyan."
"This viciousness and calculation really exceeded our expectations."
"No matter who this man in black is, I must find him out!"
I clenched my fists and said angrily.
"Look, what is on this ground?"
Bai Ze pointed to the handwriting Song Feiyan had just written on the ground and said to us.
Only then did I realize that Song Feiyan had just written something on the ground, so I quickly went over to check it out.
Because Song Feiyan's consciousness was nearly blurred at that time, the handwriting he wrote was crooked and difficult to read.
We looked at it for a long time before we finally saw that what Song Feiyan wrote seemed to be the word "Liu Wang".
"King Liu, what do these two words mean?"
I held my chin and fell into deep thought.
The handwriting Song Feiyan wrote before his death must have meant something, but these two words made people think of nothing at all.
"Mr. Cheng, these two characters written by Song Feiyan seem to be the name of a village."
Xiaona squatted there and stared for a long time, then raised her head and slowly said to me.
"You know this place?"
"Um."
Xiaona nodded: "Didn't I always live in Bashui Township before? I am very familiar with the nearby villages and towns within a radius of a hundred miles."
"A hundred miles east of Bashui Township, there is a village called Liuwangzhuang. Do you think Song Feiyan wrote about this place?"
I have to say that Xiaona's analysis was very reasonable, so we quickly decided to take a trip to Liuwangzhuang to see if we could find any clues.
Then, we worked together to dig a deep pit, bury Song Feiyan, and put three incense pillars on her grave.
"Don't worry, I will definitely find the mastermind behind this and I won't let you die in vain."
I stood in front of Song Feiyan's grave and said solemnly.
After doing all this, we set off overnight and walked in the direction of Liuwangzhuang.
In the morning, we finally walked out of the deserted forest and saw people and vehicles coming and going nearby.
So we took a taxi directly, and after more than an hour, we finally arrived at Liuwangzhuang.
This Liuwangzhuang is a remote small village. As far as the eye can see, there are only a cluster of low houses, and there are only two rough dirt roads in the village.
We walked around the village for a while and finally saw a few old men sitting together playing chess.
"Uncle, let me ask you something. Is there a girl named Song Feiyan in your village?"
I leaned down and asked an old man who was playing chess.
"Who are you and what are you doing with her?"
The old man glanced at me and asked warily.
"Oh, we are Song Feiyan's friends. We came here this time to help her bring something home."
After I explained this, the old man felt relieved and sighed leisurely.
"Well, Feiyan has a hard life. She has been living with her grandmother since she was a child. It is said that she provoked some people she shouldn't have provoked recently and has been afraid to go home. It's hard to leave her alone at home."
After sighing, the old man told us where Grandma Song Feiyan lived. We thanked her and walked towards the east end of Liuwangzhuang Village.
Soon, we arrived outside the village and saw a dilapidated mud-roofed house standing in the wilderness. The outside of the room was surrounded by pear tree branches, forming a small courtyard.
The house looked to be at least several decades old. The walls were cracked and there were many cracks on the roof. There was a small semicircular opening on the left side of the house, which was covered with scrap newspapers and served as a window.
At this moment, the door of the mud-tiled room was closed tightly, and it was dark inside, with no movement coming out.
If the uncle hadn't said it himself, I wouldn't have believed that there were people living in such a house.
As soon as I got close to the fence outside, I couldn't help but froze.
