Returning along the original path to the circular corridor on the second floor, Fang Qingxuan was about to observe the situation on the first floor, but was suddenly stopped by Luo Chen. Luo Chen made a silencing gesture towards Fang Qingxuan, and then pulled her towards the wall.
He retreated and whispered.
"Someone is coming."
At this time, Fang Qingxuan also passed by, and she vaguely noticed that there were two people walking towards the living room on the first floor from nowhere.
Fang Qingxuan was a little surprised that Luo Chen's senses were so sharp. She thought that her perception was already very strong, but Luo Chen was one step ahead of her and noticed that someone was coming.
After a while, footsteps were heard on the first floor, and then two people's voices were heard.
"How are you, Fourth, do you feel better?"
"Well, thank you, Third Brother, it's much better."
"You should be allowed to go and be guarded outside. Most people really can't accept that scene."
Luo Chen and Fang Qingxuan looked at each other and smiled, thinking that if the fourth child was guarding outside, he might be gone.
But after laughing, Fang Qingxuan and Luo Chen couldn't help but look at each other. What kind of scene could scare a professional killer into being like this, making it difficult to speak smoothly.
"This Mr. Xiao is really a bit - too different."
The killer named Lao Si is too embarrassed to say unpleasant things directly, so he can only complain like this.
His third brother said.
"Haha, he is just a lunatic. Forget it, don't talk about this. Just sit down and I will get you a glass of water."
Luo Chen heard this and whispered to Fang Qingxuan.
"When the opportunity comes, I'm going to find a way to kill the third child who poured the water. Can you tell the fourth child to shut up?"
Fang Qingxuan smiled and nodded, saying no problem.
Luo Chen curiously asked her what she planned to do.
Fang Qingxuan took out a leather bag from her waist. Because the bag was not big, Luo Chen always thought it was Fang Qingxuan's for decoration.
"What's inside?"
Fang Qingxuan took one out of the leather bag and bent it into a plate. Then with a slight shake of her arm, the plate spread out and turned out to be a very thin leather whip.
Luo Chen said in surprise.
"whip?"
Fang Qingxuan nodded and shook the slender leather whip in his hand. The whip was like a spiritual snake, flying in Fang Qingxuan's hand.
Luo Chen remembered the last time he was attacked by members of the Poison Blade organization in the Fight Club. In desperation, he used Wu Xiaowu's belt as a whip to catch a killer by surprise.
But Luo Chen is not very proficient in the whip technique. He knows that the whip can be used as a weapon, and there are many related martial arts.
Since Fang Qingxuan carries the whip with him, it seems that he has experience in using it, and Luo Chen feels more at ease.
He asked Fang Qingxuan to act according to the situation, and then quietly came to the stairs.
With his keen sense of the first floor, Luo Chen could feel the specific location of the killer named Lao San.
Sneaking into this villa was not discovered, so Luo Chen quietly went downstairs and got close to the killer.
Luo Chen held the dagger in his hand, but when he was about to reach the distance where he could take action, a voice suddenly sounded from his feet.
The killer who was pouring water suddenly became alert and turned around immediately.
Luo Chen didn't care why the noise was made, and immediately made a decision. With a wave of his arm, the dagger quickly drew a bright light.
"old……"
The killer wanted to warn his companions, but after shouting just one sentence, Luo Chen cut his throat shut.
But even so, the killer named Lao Si, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, was still alert.
He stood up, reached for the pistol at his waist, bowed slightly, and took two steps, wanting to check on his companions.
Fang Qingxuan also noticed Luo Chen's mistake. She held on to the guardrail of the corridor with one hand, exerted slight pressure, and jumped to the first floor with a light jump.
When he landed on the ground, he used the slow inertia of rolling to bring impact to his body. Then he suddenly waved the hand holding the whip, and the whip flew in the air like a spiritual snake, and then accurately wrapped around the killer's neck.
The killer groaned and was dragged to the ground by Fang Qingxuan. He let go of the pistol and grabbed the whip with both hands to prevent himself from being strangled.
After Luo Chen finished solving the problem, he immediately returned to the living room and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Fang Qingxuan had subdued the killer.
Fang Qingxuan tightened the whip and trampled the killer under his feet. The killer could only use his hands to hold the whip with all his strength to prevent himself from being strangled to death. There was no way to issue a warning to alert his companions in the basement that the villa had been invaded.
.
Luo Chen walked quickly to Fang Qingxuan and smiled.
"Okay, Miss Fang, I really underestimated you."
Fang Qingxuan raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Our Fang family is also an ancient martial arts family. If we can't handle this little guy well, wouldn't it be a joke if word spread about it?"
Luo Chen nodded in agreement, and at the same time, he unconsciously raised the strength level of the Guwu family once again.
Seeing Luo Chen nodding and saying nothing, Fang Qingxuan pointed to the killer at his feet and asked Luo Chen.
"What should he do?"
Luo Chen knelt down, waved the dagger still stained with blood in front of the killer, and asked him coldly.
"Do you want to die or want to live?"
Fang Qingxuan loosened the whip in his hand for a moment, allowing the killer to answer Luo Chen's words. However, if the killer wanted to yell, Fang Qingxuan would strangle his neck in an instant.
The killer named Lao San nodded crazily and said hoarsely.
"Want to live!"
If I could say a few more words, this killer wanted to tell Luo Chen that he had no choice before, but now he wants to be a good person.
Luo Chen has been on the battlefield for many years, and he can confidently tell whether the fear in some people's eyes is real or fake.
The killer in front of him was obviously not very good. His eyes were full of fear at this moment, and Luo Chen even felt that he should be a newbie who had just entered the industry.
Such a person definitely doesn't have the guts to do anything fancy.
Luo Chen signaled Fang Qingxuan to let him go.
Fang Qingxuan flicked her wrist, and saw that the whip wrapped around the killer's neck was loosened instantly as if it was alive, then twisted and folded three or four times before returning to Fang Qingxuan's hand.
Luo Chen put the dagger against the killer's neck and asked him.
"What's your name?"
The killer rested his elbows on the ground, raised his body slightly, and answered Luo Chen tremblingly.
"My name is Wu Wensi."
"Where is Xiao Feng?!"
"Here, in the underground secret room."
Luo Chen narrowed his eyes and asked Wu Wensi.
"I just listened to the conversation between you and your third brother. It seems that there is something terrible in that underground secret room that scared you quite a bit."
Wu Wensi listened and nodded hurriedly.
"That secret room is Mr. Xiao's laboratory. There are many dead people and corpses in it. I..."
Wu Wensi did not say the word "fear" out of fear of being laughed at.
Luo Chen and Fang Qingxuan looked at each other and couldn't help but smile.
As a killer who is even afraid of dead people and corpses, it can only be said that Wu Wensi is not suitable for this line of work.
"Besides Xiao Feng, who else is in the secret room?"
Wu Wensi knew everything he knew and told Luo Chen everything about the underground secret room, not daring to miss anything.
After Luo Chen heard this, he began to think twice. There were only two killers left to protect Xiao Feng, which was not enough for him and Fang Qingxuan.
"Is there any other exit in the secret room?"
"I don't know about this, but I remember that every time Mr. Xiao would come out of the secret room first and then leave."
Luo Chen nodded, thinking that if there was no other escape exit in the secret room, he and Fang Qingxuan could wait and wait at the entrance. But the problem now was that it was not certain whether Xiao Fengfeng would have prepared other escape channels for himself.
Luo Chen felt that with Xiao Feng's mind, he would definitely have other escape routes for him, so to be on the safe side, he should go into the underground secret room and capture Xiao Feng directly.
Thinking of this, Luo Chen grabbed Wu Wensi's sleeve and pulled him up.
"lead the way."
Wu Wensi did not dare to disobey in the slightest, and obediently led Luo Chen and Fang Qingxuan to a wall in the living room.
There seemed to be something fishy about this wall, but Luo Chen took a closer look and found nothing wrong.
Wu Wensi turned around and found a decoration on the cabinet next to her.
There was a clang, the sound of a machine turning.
Suddenly, an area the size of a normal door was recessed into the wall in front of him, and then moved away, revealing a dark passage.
Luo Chen and Fang Qingxuan looked at each other. Luo Chen nodded, turned around, and knocked Wu Wensi unconscious. They found a rope, tied Wu Wensi tightly, and gagged his mouth.
After doing this, Luo Chen and Fang Qingxuan quietly entered the underground passage one after another. (To be continued)
