Chapter 786 Doubts
The most powerful city?
Since it is the most powerful city, why did the reincarnation insect take him there?
Looking for death?
Xiao Ye fell into deep thought.
With the cautious character of the reincarnation insects, it is obviously impossible to be like this. Therefore, this city of heaven is probably not dangerous to the reincarnation insects. It is even possible that the reincarnation insects come from the city of heaven.
This possibility is very high.
So no matter what, you can't go to the City of Heaven with them.
"Brother, if you have nothing to ask, I will go down first." Xiao Ling'er outside the door saw that Xiao Ye had not spoken for a long time, so she spoke.
"Yeah." Xiao Ye nodded.
After Xiao Ling'er left, Xiao Ye walked out of the room and went up to the second floor.
Previously, through his spiritual sense, he discovered that this second level was almost all members of the Ferryman clan, but without using his divine sense to observe, he couldn't see anything at all with the naked eye.
Xiao Ye hesitated for a moment, walked into the corridor, and looked at the rooms on both sides.
Without exception, the doors of these rooms are locked. Just by sensing, there is no movement at all, let alone the breath of life inside.
Xiao Ye tried to push it, but found that the door did not move at all and could not be pushed open at all.
He took two steps back and frowned. This was not as simple as locking the doors. There should be some force preventing him from opening these doors.
"Brother, do you want to go in?" Suddenly, Xiao Ling'er's voice sounded from behind Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye was shocked. His consciousness almost enveloped the surroundings, but he didn't notice how she appeared. It was as if she appeared out of thin air.
"No, I'm just curious. By the way, why can't this door be opened?" Xiao Ye pretended not to know anything.
"Actually, there is nothing behind this door. This door is just a decoration, so it cannot be pushed open." Xiao Ling'er said.
The corner of Xiao Ye's mouth moved slightly. If he hadn't seen the scene inside through his spiritual consciousness, he might have believed what he said.
"In this case, I will go back and rest first." Xiao Ye nodded.
Xiao Ling'er watched Xiao Ye return to the third floor, frowned, and came to the top floor.
"Did he ask you anything?" The boatman asked when he saw Xiao Ling'er arriving.
"I asked about some things about Tianzhi City." Xiao Ling'er said.
"Is there nothing else besides this?" the boatman asked thoughtfully.
"No." Xiao Ling'er shook her head: "But he seems to be very interested in the second level."
Hearing this, the boatman frowned: "Did he discover something?"
"Forget it, don't worry about him, he can't get in anyway."
The reincarnation insect seemed to have not heard their conversation and waited quietly for them to finish.
After Xiao Ling'er left, he said, "It's really interesting..."
…
Xiao Ye returned to the room, closing his eyes and thinking carefully about the weirdness on the second floor. However, it didn't take long for him to feel sleepy.
He didn't think much about it, just assumed that he had consumed too much during the day, so he fell asleep.
I don't know how much time passed, but Xiao Ye suddenly heard a knock on the door, which was very rhythmic, as if he was playing a piece of music.
"Who?" Xiao Ye suddenly woke up and asked quickly.
"Dong dong dong." However, no one answered the door, but the knocking on the door never stopped.
Xiao Ye frowned, walked over and opened the door. It was already night, and it was dark outside the door, and nothing could be seen.
nobody!
Xiao Ye glanced at the passage and still found nothing. He closed the door and returned to the bed.
The fat man once told him not to violate three things when boarding the ship.
The first thing is that you cannot speak casually.
Talk; second thing, don’t eat any food on the boat; third thing, no matter what you see, don’t care.
However, at this moment, Xiao Ye almost committed all three of these things.
But nothing happened to him. On the other hand, the fat man fell asleep directly after eating the food.
At this moment, the fat man who had been silent next to him suddenly started to twist, with a look of pain on his face.
"What's going on?" Xiao Ye was stunned.
The fat man's condition continued to improve for a while, and finally returned to normal.
[His soul seems to be partially eaten by something. 】
Just when Xiao Ye was confused, the system spoke.
Greedy?
"What? Why don't I feel anything?" Xiao Ye frowned and asked.
[Unclear. 】
"Xiao Ling'er." Xiao Ye was naturally confused when this happened, so he called Xiao Ling'er.
But after waiting for a long time, little Ling'er didn't appear.
Where are people?
He was about to open the door and go out to take a look, but was stopped by the system.
[Don't open the door. His situation just now is probably related to opening the door. 】
Xiao Ye sat beside the bed with a solemn expression and fell into deep thought again.
Until dawn, there was no knock on the door.
At dawn, Xiao Ye called out Xiao Ling'er again. This time, it didn't take long for Xiao Ling'er to appear.
"Brother, what happened?" Xiao Ling'er asked respectfully.
"Did anything happen last night?" Xiao Ye did not directly ask Fatty about it.
"Not really." Xiao Ling'er said.
"Is that so?" Xiao Ye nodded, looked at Xiao Ling'er and asked, "When I was sleeping last night, I seemed to hear someone knocking on the door. I don't know if I heard it wrong."
"Knock on the door? Why is there someone knocking on the door? Brother, did you hear it wrong?" Xiao Ling'er looked confused.
Xiao Ye frowned secretly. Although Xiao Ling'er hid it well, Xiao Ye still saw something was wrong from her expression. However, if the other party didn't say anything, he knew that he wouldn't be able to find out anything if he asked, so he smiled and said : "Then it's possible that I heard it wrong."
Xiao Ling'er struggled for a moment and whispered: "Brother, never open the door at night, no matter what you hear."
"Why?" Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment.
But after Xiao Ling'er said this, she returned to her original state, and she didn't speak no matter what Xiao Ye said.
"Strange." After Xiao Ling'er left, Xiao Ye became even more confused. He was sure that Xiao Ling'er must know something, but the other party obviously didn't want to say it.
Or maybe it’s not that I don’t want to say it, but I just don’t dare to say it.
Xiao Ye felt that things on the ship were getting weirder and weirder.
At noon, the reincarnation insect came to Xiao Ye's room.
"If you don't want any accidents to happen, it's best to stay in the room and sleep quietly at night. No matter what you hear, don't pay attention. As long as you don't open the door, nothing will happen." The reincarnation insect watched. Xiao Ye said.
"Why?" Xiao Ye frowned.
"If you want to survive, just listen to me." The reincarnation insect did not explain anything: "What I want is the Fuji Glass Flame. Your life or death is not important to me, just because you will save me." I just came to remind you."
"And it's best not to trust other people casually."
it added.
Xiao Ye sneered: "According to what you mean, I can't believe you either."
The reincarnation insect was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You can think so too."
Xiao Ye suddenly fell into doubt.
Have you stopped pretending now?
The arrival of the reincarnation insect made Xiao Ye even more confused. Logically speaking, it should not remind Xiao Ye, but it did so.
What is it for?
Could it be that it is not actually the same party as the boatman?
Xiao Ye carefully recalled the scene of the boatman and the reincarnation insect getting along from the beginning to the end, and finally got
A conclusion that made him dumbfounded.
It seems that the reincarnation insect and the boatman are really not the same team. If they are really the same team, how could they make such a bet.
But then the problem arises again.
The purpose of the reincarnation insect is the Fuji Glass Flame in his body, but what about the purpose of the boatman?
What is its purpose?
What is certain is that its purpose is not Fuji Glass Flame, otherwise the reincarnation insect would not be so quiet.
…
The top of the ship.
"You went to remind him?" The boatman looked at Xiao Ling'er with a half-smile.
At this moment, compared with before, Xiao Ling'er's body became more transparent, her face became paler, and her whole body was trembling, as if she had experienced something terrible.
Seeing this scene, the boatman lost interest, shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's get down. Even if he notices something, he can't escape from my grasp."
The reincarnation insect came to the top of the boat and saw this scene and said nothing.
"Did you also remind him?" the boatman asked.
"Why, can't you? He saved my life." The reincarnation insect said calmly.
The boatman smiled disdainfully: "You are really hypocritical. Like before, you can take action whenever you want. Why do you need to make so many excuses to make yourself feel at ease?"
"I'm happy to." The reincarnation insect didn't pay any attention to the boatman's words: "As long as he doesn't leave the room, with your level of control over the ferry boat, there's nothing you can do against him."
"Why do you all like to go against me? Am I so annoying?" the boatman asked in confusion.
"Isn't that annoying? That's disgusting. Besides, we are already rivals. Isn't it normal to fight against you?" the reincarnation insect said calmly.
"If you didn't tell me, I almost forgot that we are enemies."
The boatman sighed and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will stop you from getting the Fuji Glass Flame?"
The Samsara Insect shook his head and said calmly: "You can't. I absorbed the Fuji Glass Flame, and you can escape from the trap. This is killing two birds with one stone."
The boatman shook his head and said, "If I hadn't been able to absorb the Fuji Glass Flame now, I really wouldn't want you to absorb it."
…
After listening to the conversation between the two, Xiao Ye fell into deep thought again. The more he knew, the more doubts he had. Judging from the tone of the two, it seemed that there was something wrong with their identities.
Especially the boatman's attitude towards Xiao Ling'er was very strange, as if he didn't regard Xiao Ling'er as one of his own.
Xiao Ye naturally saw the scene where the boatman punished Xiao Ling'er through his spiritual consciousness. He did not expect that Xiao Ling'er just reminded him casually and was severely punished by the other party.
It is also possible that this reminder has seriously interfered with what he wants to do.
"It can be concluded from their conversation that the boatman must want to do something to me, but because he does not have enough control over the boat, he cannot easily do it."
Xiao Ye continued to complete his guesses based on their conversation.
"So this room is equivalent to a safe house?"
Xiao Ye's face looked a little strange.
