Chapter 2071 The purpose that must be achieved
When they returned to the room, Lin Ye and Cui Muchang couldn't sleep anymore. After confirming that Ye Mengyao was fine, they sat in the outdoor room.
Cui Muchang looked serious, his hands were folded under his jaw and supported on the table. His beautiful and cold eyes were covered with frost at this time, and even revealed a faint murderous intent: "Brother Lin, I think the reward this time is not that simple. In other words, Hu Chen's death should not be as simple as a reward."
"You're right," Lin Ye agreed with her idea, poured a cup of hot tea and put it in his hand and shook it gently: "If you kill someone just for a reward, you shouldn't choose such a low-level task. Or, even if you are determined to win, it is not worth using such cruel means."
Cui Muchang nodded, as if he was still scared of Hu Chen's death: "Such bloody and cruel means not only consume a lot of immortal power, but also require a lot of risks. Furthermore, since the other party can use such means to kill Hu Chen and silent, it means that the other party's cultivation is higher than Hu Chen. If you want to kill him, you can erase him after the wind comes out of the sun."
Cui Muchang's analysis was very accurate, just as Lin Ye thought: the murderer's method this time was too cold. If he hadn't had a grudge against Hu Chen, he wouldn't have to do this. Besides, the other party had reached such a level of cultivation, which could wipe out a cultivator in the Kongjing stage silently, which means that the other party was definitely a top expert among so many people. Even if he exposed his identity, he would probably not dare to provoke head-on. Even if he deliberately concealed his identity in order to prevent being assassinated, there would be no need to use this method.
"Before coming in, Feng Bo clearly mentioned the rules of Feng Laiju. Outside Feng Laiju, we will never take action if we fight and kill Feng Laiju. But if there is a problem within Feng Laiju, Feng Laiju will definitely take action. You must know that Feng Laiju has the background of Buxian Mountain. Even if the murderer is extremely confident in his skills, if he does not have a purpose that must be done, why should he risk offending Feng Laiju?" Cui Muchang frowned and murmured his analysis.
In fact, Cui Muchang had already said everything Lin Ye wanted to know. However, from her words, Lin Ye grasped a key point: "The purpose that must be achieved..."
After thinking for a while, Lin Ye's eyes suddenly gathered: "If the other party really has something to achieve, that is, Hu Chen's death is just the beginning. Next, it is very likely that someone will die!"
You can leave during the day, but you have to return to Fenglaiju at night. Thinking of this, the murderer seemed to have taken a fancy to this point and chose to take action in Fenglaiju. Either he could not leave Fenglaiju, or he could not control the movements of others during the day.
However, Lin Ye still thought of a possibility: Is it possible that the murderer's ability can only kill people in Feng Laiju?
But no matter what, this is just a little guess from Lin Ye, and there is no actual evidence, so he did not tell Cui Muchang, but mentioned another thing: "What do you think about Feng Mianmian?"
You should know that like many people, Cui Muchang has a bad impression of Feng Mianmian. This woman gave birth to a beautiful face, but her temper and character are indeed too bad, and she is definitely not a popular person. Even if she is beautiful, she needs a sufficiently excellent soul to support her.
However, this time, Cui Muchang's answer was beyond Lin Ye's expectations. When Lin Ye mentioned Feng Mianmian, she subconsciously frowned, but soon, she shook her head again: "I think this time the matter is not like she did."
"Oh? Why?" Lin Ye was intrigued.
In this regard, Cui Muchang's analysis was very rational: "Her personality is not popular, but I think she said the last thing right. She behaved arrogantly and domineeringly, and you can tell at a glance that she was raised by being arrogant. If you want her to hurt someone with this kind of personality, it will be a kind of humiliation to her."
Lin Ye nodded in response to this point: "Yes, after she entered Fenglaiju, she immediately attracted everyone's attention. And in the afternoon, she showed no concealment about the reward. If she wanted to take action secretly, there was no need to act so high-profile, so that everyone's eyes would be focused on her. In this way, as long as something happened, everyone would be the first to doubt her."
For example, Lin Qingxiao and Lin Qingyu are an example. I am afraid that in the subsequent reward mission, even if these two brothers and sisters cannot complete the reward themselves, they will fight Feng Mianmian to the death.
However, it is difficult to ensure that Feng Mianmian's arrogance and domineeringness in the daytime is not a smoke bomb thrown by people to hide some purpose. After all, human hearts are the most difficult to predict, and no one can guess a person's heart completely with one or two things.
Moreover, Feng Mianmian's disappearing subordinate was really suspicious, and there was no source of the taste of the Soul Soup in her room.
If her subordinates rested after one night, then Feng Mianmian came out after something happened, and as a subordinate, he would not have been able to follow him. But he didn't come out, and Feng Mianmian had no explanation for this.
There are too many mysteries that followed after entering Yinxian City. Even Lin Ye couldn't come to any conclusions for a while. Seeing that the time was about to dawn, Lin Ye patted Cui Muchang on the shoulder: "Forget it, don't think too much, go and rest."
"Okay, Brother Lin, you should also take a break early. We will go out to find the baby who is born with demon bones tomorrow morning."
It was said to be a rest, but there was such a strange murderer around him. Who could really fall asleep?
After Lin Ye meditated in his room until dawn, when Chi Yue retreated, he had already stood up. Cui Muchang was afraid that like him, he had not been asleep for a night. Fortunately, as a cultivator, they could have been sleeping for several days. Even if they were resting, they could use meditation instead of sleeping.
After the two of them packed up their own things and confirmed that Ye Mengyao's situation was not bad, they put her in the pot and took her out. After all, Feng Laiju's situation is still unclear, and they dared not let Ye Mengyao stay alone in Feng Laiju.
When Lin Ye went out, many people opened the door and prepared to set off. Strangely, Feng Mianmian, who was most confident in the reward mission, was the door closed and had no intention of setting off...
