Chapter 289 Wonderful Conspiracy
In the southern region of Dongzhou, in the mountain behind Hanqingmen, in an old mansion.

This mansion has been abandoned for a long time, and the monks who have stayed in Hanqing Gate for a long time know that an elder once lived here, and his name has been gradually forgotten in the long river of history.

This elder is kind and kind, especially for newcomers and his disciples.Although his strength is not very high, but because of his approachable personality, he has won the love of many disciples.

In the life of this old elder, countless disciples were accepted, but very few became talents.Firstly, because of his own limited strength, and secondly, because he is kind to others, he is so kind to others, so he often accepts some disciples that other elders are unwilling to accept.

As a result, the level of disciples of the old elders is uneven. Most of them are "poor students".

Among these many people, there are two disciples who still play important roles in the Hanqing Sect. One is Gongsun Che, one of the current five elders, currently considered No.1 of the Hanqing Sect, and the most powerful. That is to say, the person who was called "Hooked Nose Elder" by Chen Yao during the entry test).

The second is the messenger boy.

At this moment, Chen Yao is gradually uncovering the secret that Baoxin Boy had hidden for countless years.

"After you entered the Cangyue Mountains, I followed you all the way. Naturally, it was also the instruction of Ai Cao. You know the purpose."

"En." Chen Yao nodded and said, "Maybe I want you to follow us first and get familiar with the trend of the caves under the Cangyue Mountains?"

"That's right." The messenger boy nodded and said, "Because I was originally a monster, so I pretended to be a little monster in the cave and followed you in the form of a leech. Your attention."

"When passing by the ancient guards, I was almost discovered, but it happened that the ancient guards were merciful and wanted to send you through the level, so I pretended to be a weak little monster and sneaked in along with its powerful power."

"Until the fork, I finally waited until you separated, but I'm not sure which of you will take the right path. So before that, I used a little trick."

The messenger boy continued expressionlessly: "When you were unconscious, I went ahead to explore the road first, and found a fork in the road, knowing that you would definitely separate here. But I didn't have enough time to explore all the caves, so I explored first One of the caves. And that cave is the cave where the Tarantula Empire is located."

"During the detection process, I used the name of the Underground Monster Federation to make an agreement with the Tarantula King of the Tarantula Empire, asking them to help catch the people who finally entered their empire."

"The method is very simple. No matter who enters it, I just need to seize the right moment and appear in front of you. In a split second, you can be distracted, and the tarantulas can take the opportunity to attack and knock you unconscious and imprison you. This method has been proven to be effective during the queen bee mission."

"Well... that's true..."

Chen Yao nodded after hearing the words, thought for a while, nodded and said, "Whether it's me, Yue'er, or Su Xianyong, they all have some impressions of you. Under the Cangyue Mountains, if you suddenly see you appear, you will definitely have a moment of brain damage." Blank, desperately thinking about why I met you here. And this time is the most defenseless moment, and it is easy to be attacked."

"That's right." The messenger boy said, "Later it turned out that this trick was indeed effective. Although the one who entered the Tarantula Empire was the most powerful Yue'er, because of my sudden appearance, it suddenly aroused her mind. She was stunned when she saw me, and maybe she remembered the mistake of the queen bee mission for a moment, but the tarantulas took advantage of the loophole and subdued her."

"I originally thought this would be enough. Yue'er was imprisoned, so the remaining possibility is that you or Su Xianyong are on the right path, or everyone is on the wrong path. No matter what the result is, I can do it." This will determine which path is the right one."

"Outside the cave, the wormwoods have already ambushed, waiting for you to come out of the cave. If you can successfully pass through the ancient guards to get out of the cave, the wormwoods will handle it. And if you can't get out, I can After you are killed by the ancient guards, explore the remaining caves one by one."

There was no emotion in the messenger boy's eyes, and he seemed to be a machine when he said all this, which made Chen Yao feel cold and weak for no reason.

"The reason we made such a judgment at the time was very simple. You and Yue'er have only known each other for a short time, and there is no deep friendship between each other. In such a dangerous environment in an underground cave, most people would Choose wisely to protect yourself, escape is the most important thing, even if Yue'er is caught, she won't come to rescue her."

"But one thing we miscalculated is your determination and courage."

Saying that, Baoxin Boy looked at Chen Yao with admiration and continued: "We didn't expect that you would trigger the War of Ten Thousand Years, making the arrangement of wormwood meaningless; we didn't even expect that after you knew the situation, you would choose Come back to save Yue'er; moreover, I didn't expect you to be able to successfully defeat the Tarantula Empire's personal guards, and even burst out with incomparably powerful demon energy."

"Things have developed to this point, and it has already exceeded our expectations. Fortunately, Ai Cao has already prepared for me a key item that cannot be used unless it is absolutely necessary..."

Chen Yao's eyes darkened, and he continued, "Silver needle..."

"Yes, it's the silver needle."

The messenger boy nodded and said: "Before you entered the most hinterland of the Tarantula Empire, I used the silver needle to take Yue'er away, and left a clue according to the second plan to lead you away from the Hanqing Gate, and followed the clue all the way." , to the Tianyuan Arena. Then the Federation will enter the cave, and use the clues I have observed along the way to dig and explore.”

"According to you," Chen Yao sighed softly: "Why do I need to provide clues to help them detect caves? Are they all lies? The Federation doesn't need me at all?"

"That's right." Baoxin Boy nodded and said, "They found you in the Fairy Market, just to restrain you, so that you can't return to Hanqingmen in a short time, and concentrate on working hard in Tianyuan Arena to kill time .”

"Besides, whether they said they wanted to cooperate with you, kidnapped Jiang Bo, or even sent Chen Mu and the others to the Tianyuan Arena, they were all to create an illusion for you, that is..."

The messenger boy paused, stared at Chen Yao with big eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Yue'er is in danger, and you need to drop everything to save her...!"

"It's really a complicated and sophisticated conspiracy..." Chen Yao shook his head slightly. He never thought that the scheme of the Federation was so comprehensive that it was almost impossible to find any flaws. Every step was calculated so delicately that he didn't realize it. stepped into the lies they spun.

"We can't let you come back, because once you come back, you will definitely notify the elders of the Hanqingmen, unite experts to stop the union's excavation process. We can't kill any of you, because if you get to that point, you The rest of the people will definitely notify the elders and the head of the sect, then this scam will lose its meaning."

The messenger boy waved his hand slightly in front of Chen Yao, and said seriously, "You are just a donkey, and Yue'er is the carrot hanging in front of your eyes, which you want to eat but will never be able to eat."

"You guys have really worked so hard, haha." Chen Yao smiled wryly, then, as if remembering something, he raised his eyes and asked, "By the way, what is the third road?? How did you leave the cave in the Cangyue Mountain Range?" ? You won’t be taking Yue’er away directly from under our noses, right??”

"What's the third way?" The messenger boy obviously didn't understand Chen Yao's idea, a look of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he replied: "Yue'er and I left before you went deep into the Tarantula Empire! "

"This……!"

Chen Yao was very surprised, and shook his head in puzzlement: "This is impossible. After I killed the tarantula guard outside the cage, I clearly read the memory of that scene from its monster species. You just took Yue'er away." That's it!"

"Oh, you said that." The messenger boy said blankly, "That's a trick."

"It's Ai Cao's idea. You have to do a full set of plays, that's what it said." The messenger boy continued: "From the very beginning, when you were still with the aye-aye, we expected that this might happen. He performed a show near the cage, took Yue'er away in front of two unsuspecting tarantula guards, left this memory among their demon species, and then killed them."

"At that time, a strange monster came. After killing the tarantulas, I don't know what method they used to quickly take out their monster species. swapped."

"Then when you killed those two tarantulas and came into contact with the demon species, you thought it was something that just happened, believed it to be true, and believed that it was an incredible master who took Yue'er away in front of your face. If you consider this as a premise, you will not place doubts on me anyway."

"But in fact, the picture you received is an illusion that has been prepared before...!"

After the messenger boy finished speaking, Chen Yao felt like his head was about to explode. Everything along the way turned out to be an illusion created by the Federation.Even the missions within the sect were manipulated by the messenger boy. This feeling of living in a lie and being completely exposed one day made Chen Yao feel extremely distrustful of the world around him.

And the guy who changed the monster species for the tarantula was probably the owner of the small shop in the Fairy Market.

"Okay, I roughly understand what happened."

Chen Yao sorted out his thoughts, and said to the messenger boy, "Next, the last question..."

A trace of uneasiness flashed in Chen Yao's eyes, and he frowned and said, "Where is the progress of the excavation under the Cangyue Mountains...?"
