Chapter 171
Le Xiaoyi hid in the canopy of the tree, saw the two people kissing against the rock wall in the distance, and silently rolled two big eyes at them.
Out of self-restraint of seeing no evil, Le Xiaoyi turned his eyes away to observe the surroundings of the waterfall, making sure that there was no one around, and when he turned his head again, the two had already separated.
She didn't take the initiative to go over to say hello, but drilled out of the forest from the lower reaches of the waterfall, and went to the river bank where the water flow was gentler to wash off the blood on her body. Sure enough, after a while, the two people who came down from the upper reaches found her.
"Miss Que!" Seeing Le Xiaoyi, Feng Hongyu raised her hand as if seeing a life-saving straw, and walked forward quickly.
When Feng Hongyu and Luo Qingcheng were together, her heartbeat was much faster than usual, and she felt uncomfortable all over.
I always feel that Luo Qingcheng's eyes are looking at her from time to time. In order not to look at Luo Qingcheng in embarrassment, Feng Hongyu had no choice but to endure not looking at the people around him.
And she couldn't help but think about the expression on Luo Qingcheng's face, this short period of time made her feel miserable.
Le Xiaoyi used his internal energy to evaporate his clothes, and turned his head to look at the two people who were coming.
Seeing that there was a distance between the two people, as if deliberately avoiding suspicion, Le Xiaoyi felt sorry for what happened to him, and nodded to them calmly: "Miss Luo, Miss Feng."
Luo Qingcheng obviously didn't want to see Le Xiaoyi, when he walked over, his face was full of displeasure, and he glared at her behind Feng Hongyu's back.
Le Xiaoyi suffered another innocent disaster, but the culprit who caused the disaster had no self-knowledge.
Feng Hongyu strode towards her and asked her in a concerned tone: "Are you injured? Is it serious?"
Le Xiaoyi glanced at Luo Qingcheng subconsciously, and sure enough, Luo Qingcheng's face turned cold again.
If before coming to Luotian Cave Mansion, Le Xiaoyi thought that Luo Qingcheng hated Feng Hongyu because she hated her, now she understands why Luo Qingcheng hates Feng Hongyu, the reason why he put on such a cold face for her is He was obviously jealous because Feng Hongyu talked to her.
Le Xiaoyi waved his hand: "It's okay, it's not serious."
When she got up, she took a step back naturally, and distanced herself from Feng Hongyu.
Even if her chest was uncomfortable and her internal organs should have suffered a little shock from the explosion just now, it could only be said to be not serious to Feng Hongyu.
Le Xiaoyi thought that Feng Hongyu and Luo Qingcheng would leave after saying hello. She didn't want to get together with these two people. After she accidentally discovered the complicated relationship between Feng Hongyu and Luo Qingcheng, she was even more unwilling to Wade in this muddy water.
Unexpectedly, Feng Hongyu invited her to go with her without even thinking about it: "Miss Que is injured, it's dangerous to be alone, why don't you act together with us?"
She just fulfilled the tasks assigned to her by Ji Yuxuan in a down-to-earth manner, but in the eyes of Le Xiaoyi and Luo Qingcheng, she changed her taste.
Le Xiaoyi sighed in his heart, thinking that Feng Hongyu might have something wrong with his brain.
I really don't know what this person is thinking, is he careless, or is he pretending to be stupid?
Le Xiaoyi intends to reject Feng Hongyu's kindness. She came here for experience, and she has a lot of secrets, so it is more convenient to act alone. If Luo Qingcheng finds out that she still uses Luo's Questioning Heart Sword Art, she will not Good explanation.
But before she could speak, a piercing scream pierced the sky, startling Le Xiaoyi and the three of them together.
"Someone has an accident." Luo Qingcheng's face sank, he didn't care about the relationship between Feng Hongyu and Le Xiaoyi, "I have to go and have a look." After finishing speaking, he rushed towards the direction where the voice came from.
Most of the people who participated in the Luotian cave trial were descendants of the Luo family. As the eldest lady of the family, she had the responsibility to ensure their safety.
Although Feng Hongyu deliberately kept a distance from Luo Qingcheng, but if something happened, she was worried about Luo Qingcheng's safety, so naturally she couldn't let Luo Qingcheng go alone, so she said to Le Xiaoyi: "Miss Que, let's go!" Bar."
Immediately, he followed Luo Qingcheng's pace and left.
Le Xiaoyi looked at the backs of the two, with helplessness shining brightly in his eyes.
When did she promise Feng Hongyu to act together?
But it was too late to say no now, and Le Xiaoyi was also curious about what happened, so he only sighed and followed quickly.
After a while, Le Xiaoyi and Feng Hongyu followed Luo Qingcheng to find the place where the incident happened. Le Xiaoyi smelled a bloody smell from a long distance away. The pungent stench was as strong as if there was a guillotine ahead.
Feng Hongyu's face was also not good-looking, until she caught up with Luo Qingcheng's back.
Le Xiaoyi stopped walking, and frowned suddenly.
There were two dead bodies hanging from the tree.
Le Xiaoyi didn't know these two people, but he had a little impression of their faces. They seemed to be collateral descendants of the Luo family who were close to Luo Qingfeng.
One of them was holding a white jade tablet in his hand, but he didn't have time to crush it, the other was missing an arm, and the white jade tablet was scattered under the tree together with the broken arm.
The gloomy face of Luo's second child flashed across Le Xiaoyi's mind for a moment, but she quickly brushed the thought away.
The murderer's move was clean and neat. Judging from the scream they heard just now, the murderer's sudden attack to the sudden death of the two disciples from the Luo family did not exceed one breath.
These two people are both in the late stage of the Bone Origin Realm, and the second son of the Luo family is similar in strength to them. One against two, the possibility of preventing them from using the white jade card and killing them at the same time is very small.
What's more, apart from Le Xiaoyi and Feng Hongyu, among the people who entered Luotian Cave Mansion this time, there were four people who were not from the Luo family.
Among the four foreign guests, Tong Bai from the Tong family and Wan Xingfeng from the Shanchuan Security Bureau are both in the Bone Yuan Realm, but it is the couple who are mysterious and most suspected.
Le Xiaoyi harbored such doubts in his heart, but he was not sure if his guess was right.
Recalling the killing intent she felt before entering the cave, Le Xiaoyi felt that this accident was probably not an accident at all.
Luo Qingcheng's face paled for a moment when he saw his family members dying.
Immediately, her face turned from white to green, and the suppressed anger made her forehead twitch.
She walked over to put down the corpses of the two disciples in the clan. Although she didn't hold out any hope, she checked their breath first.
No breathing, no heartbeat, utterly dead.
Luo Qingcheng's face was livid, and he gritted his teeth: "Who the hell dares to kill someone in Luotiandong Mansion?!"
The fatal wounds were all on the neck, and the throat was sealed with a sword, and there was nothing unusual about the moves. Just like this, no matter who it is, there is a suspicion of murder.
Feng Hongyu walked around the place where the incident happened, suddenly squatted down, pointed to an inconspicuous footprint on the ground and said to Luo Qingcheng: "Come and see this."
Luo Qingcheng heard the sound and walked over, and also saw footprints on the ground.
"This footprint is neither theirs nor ours, so it should be left by the murderer."
Feng Hongyu said, gestured at the size of the footprints, and snorted, "Judging from the size of the shoes, it should be a man. There are no other shoe prints around, which means that this person probably moved on the tree before, and only landed once when killing people. If it is so shallow, either the lightness kung fu is excellent, or the cultivation level is above the marrow realm."
"Besides..." Feng Hongyu stood up, "This piece of ooze will stick to his shoes, and he probably hasn't had time to clean it up in a hasty evacuation."
She looked around again and found a little trace of dirt between the branches of a tree.
Feng Hongyu, who was serious about solving the problem, didn't have the awkwardness she had when she was alone with Luo Qingcheng before, and she didn't notice the shocked expressions of Luo Qingcheng and Le Xiaoyi. She raised her jaw in one direction and asked Luo Qingcheng: " It’s not long since I left, so I shouldn’t have run far, should I chase after it?”
"Chase!" Luo Qingcheng withdrew his eyes that were almost glued to Feng Hongyu's body, his face was so cold that a layer of ice was almost frozen.
Le Xiaoyi couldn't help but look at Feng Hongyu more, she seemed to understand why Ji Yuxuan wanted Feng Hongyu to be with her later.
This person looks weak most of the time, but he is extraordinarily sharp in some subtle places.
Feng Hongyu led the way, following the traces of the murderer's departure, Luo Qingcheng and Le Xiaoyi followed behind.
Luo Qingcheng quickly discovered a problem, Le Xiaoyi, who only had the sixth level of the Maiyuan Realm, actually caught up with her and Feng Hongyu closely, and did not fall behind.
It was the second time that Le Xiaoyi received Luo Qingcheng's suspicious gaze. Although Luo Qingcheng didn't ask, Le Xiaoyi took the initiative to explain her doubts: "Before I came down, I had an adventure, and I ate a kind of fruit that tempers the body."
Luo Qingcheng was quite surprised, she didn't expect Le Xiaoyi to be so honest.
But Le Xiaoyi didn't speak again after finishing this sentence, and the atmosphere between the three of them returned to silence.
After chasing for about two miles, Le Xiaoyi suddenly had a warning sign in his heart. He buckled the hilt of his sword without hesitation, and slashed away the sword energy that was attacking Feng Hongyu.
Feng Hongyu was startled, and Luo Qingcheng also opened his eyes wide in surprise.
That sword energy was silent before it erupted, very much like the black shadow attack that Le Xiaoyi encountered in the stalagmite forest before.
Luo Qingcheng was shocked by Le Xiaoyi's astuteness, while Feng Hongyu was horrified by the sneak attack that she didn't even notice, and was blocked by Le Xiaoyi.
Le Xiaoyi turned over and landed on the ground, staring at the white shadow in the distance, stopped Feng Hongyu and Luo Qingcheng who were going to arrest them: "No, it's not him, don't chase after him!"
"What's wrong?" Feng Hongyu stopped, while Luo Qingcheng frowned, clearly showing his displeasure at being blocked by Le Xiaoyi.
Le Xiaoyi repeated: "The man just now was not the murderer."
Luo Qingcheng didn't understand what she said, and maybe it had some personal emotions, so he asked Le Xiaoyi: "Why?"
Le Xiaoyi didn't care about Luo Qingcheng's attitude, and replied in a calm tone: "This person's moves seem strange, but they are not very powerful. At best, they are only at the early stage of the Bone Origin Realm."
Otherwise, she couldn't have accepted this trick so easily.
Just now even if she didn't make a move to block it, and let her move fall on Feng Hongyu, it would not be fatal.
A flash of inspiration flashed in Feng Hongyu's mind, and she understood what Le Xiaoyi wanted to express, and she took her words naturally: "You mean, the reason why this person appeared to attack me now is to divert our attention and let the real The murderer escaped?"
Le Xiaoyi nodded: "What does Miss Feng think?"
"I think Miss Que is right!" Feng Hongyu grinned, and continued to chase in the opposite direction from where the white shadow fled just now, and sure enough, she found wet mud that was no longer obvious on the tree trunk.
Le Xiaoyi and Feng Hongyu analyzed each other word by word and cooperated tacitly. Luo Qingcheng felt that as a daughter of the Luo family, she did not help at all to investigate the murder of a disciple in the clan, and her mood fell inexplicably.
Now is not the time to think about things, Luo Qingcheng shook his head vigorously, shaking off complicated thoughts.
With a step on her foot, her speed increased a bit, and she followed closely beside Feng Hongyu.
Turning his head slightly, he could see Feng Hongyu's profile.
