Mystery: Evildoer! What Do You Know?
Page 137
When the old man heard what he said, he became emotional, and his hands began to tremble.
Lin Yi couldn't help but be a little worried, the old man is so old, he doesn't seem to be in good health, and his blood pressure suddenly rises. Will something go wrong?
he said quickly.
"Don't get excited, old man, we'll talk slowly if we have something to say."
The old gentleman nodded.
"I know."
"Your Excellency, all the stories I told before are true, and the truth may be even more dirty and dark than what I told!"
Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, then said tentatively.
"I think, I may know, what the old gentleman said is true."
The old man froze for a moment, then shook his head mockingly.
"Yes, Your Excellency is a wise man, but I am smart."
Lin Yi asked.
"Is the last ending that the old gentleman said true?"
Sure enough, the old man fell silent after hearing what he asked.
Lin Yi knew that he guessed correctly, but the old man still concealed something in the end.
Now that the words have been said here, the old gentleman no longer hides it, and directly tells Lin Yi what he has hidden.
"The hostess did suddenly disappear at that time, but there was still one person left there."
"He told me that the hostess was rescued by him, and the host and eight children have all died."
"However, even if the hostess survives, there is a problem with the spirit of being tortured..."
Speaking of this, the old man was angry for the first time, and his brows were furrowed.
But there was a deep sense of powerlessness in his tone.
"That person is not worried about leaving the hostess in the city, so he will take the hostess out of the city that night and put her in another safe place."
"Perhaps for the hostess, this is a fortune among misfortunes."
"After that, he explained to me, don't let other people know about this, or I will be arrested by Wanyang Sect."
Lin Yi saw that Erha Lang had already drank all the water, but he hadn't eaten until now. Erha Lang was starving, and lay on the ground, staring at him.
Lin Yi could only pat him on the head soothingly. In this situation, he couldn't find meat for Erha Lang to eat, so he had to endure it first.
The old gentleman didn't care what Lin Yi's reaction was, and told the story on his own.
"However, the people in the entire city are living in the deception of Wanyang Sect."
"I don't know what evil things they have done secretly before."
"So I decided to make this story into a story and tell everyone in the teahouse when I was telling the story."
"I'm ready to be found by Wanyang Sect, but I don't regret it. If I can wake up the common people, my goal has been achieved."
After listening to the old gentleman's self-analysis, Lin Yi nodded, feeling roughly the same as what he had guessed.
"Then do you still have the cultivator who saved the mistress's life after you?"
The old gentleman did not hide it and nodded.
"I have seen."
"Every day at this time, he comes here to see me and see if I'm safe."
"But today I waited for so long, and I didn't wait for him to appear. I'm really worried, whether he was..."
The old gentleman didn't say what he said later, but Lin Yi had already guessed that the old gentleman was afraid that the practitioner would be caught by Wanyangzong.
Because from what the old gentleman said, it seems that the practitioner has been investigating what Wanyangzong has done secretly.
The tip of the knife licks blood, and if you don't pay attention, it will fall into the tiger's mouth.
Lin Yi now understands why the old man suddenly decided to tell himself the truth. .
Chapter 173
"The old gentleman wants me to find the trace of the practitioner?"
The old man did not deny it, but he was still a little uncertain in his heart.
"I am not related to you, and I don't have what you need. I don't know how to impress you."
"So I decided to tell your Excellency the truth. How to make a decision is up to you. That's all I can do."
The old man suddenly became slumped, and his old back bent a little bit, as if even the last breath of anger was about to disappear.
The grief, anger and powerlessness in his heart were immediately passed on to Lin Yi.
The old man had ambitions in his heart, but he was old and frail and blind, and there was nothing he could do.
I want to ask people, but I can't bear to involve innocent people.
Lin Yi knew the contradiction in the old gentleman's heart, but he didn't have so much time to worry about other people's affairs.
Let's say he is selfish, but his goal is to live a life like a salted fish, and he has nothing to pursue. Punishing evil and promoting good doesn't seem to suit him at all.
However, Lin Yi felt a little cruel to reject the old gentleman directly, so he could only say it euphemistically.
"Don't worry, old gentleman. Maybe he has something to delay. Wait another day. If he doesn't come to you tomorrow, I'll see if I can help you find someone back."
The old gentleman understood the meaning of his words and did not want to force him.
Everyone has their own life, and no one wants to be involved in a troublesome matter for no reason.
Lin Yi said goodbye to the old gentleman, and suddenly thought of a question while walking on the road.
They will leave tomorrow, and he has no way of knowing whether the old gentleman has waited for the cultivator.
……
Lin Yi waited until dawn and found that Chu Qing and the others had not heard any news all night.
Erha Lang stayed by his side and waited for the little fox to come back. He was so sleepy that he closed his eyes and fell asleep for a while.
These two girls and a little fox won't play until the night, right?
Did something happen?
But he didn't receive Long Long's distress signal all night.
Lin Yi thought about it carefully, did the two girls explain to him where they were going before they left.
In the end, he could only recall the excitement on Long Long's face, but he was troubled by the fact that he was shopping at the time, and he did not ask in detail.
He tapped his head and began to speculate carefully where the two girls were most likely to go.
Looking back now, I found that Long Long's excitement at that time didn't seem to be caused by going shopping.
What the hell is going on...
Then Lin Yi realized that he seemed to have been neglecting an important thing.
The beggar who took out three cheats.
Because he thought he was going to leave today, Lin Yi didn't take the beggars to heart, he just thought he met a strange person on the way.
But this can't stop the curiosity of the two little girls, they are most likely going to turn around and go back to the beggar.
In the story the old gentleman told him yesterday, there was a practitioner who did not know his name or appearance.
The best way to investigate Wanyangzong's affairs is to hide in the city.
There are many people here, and it is not easy to be discovered by Wanyang Sect.
Lin Yi suddenly stood up.
Er Halang was awakened, looked around vigilantly, found that there was no danger, and looked at his master suspiciously.
"gone."
Er Halang didn't know where to go, but he still followed Lin Yi with his tail obediently.
As soon as the old man opened the door, he felt someone standing in front of him.
The smell smelled familiar, and there was a dog circling back and forth around him.
The old man was stunned.
"Why are you here at this time?"
Didn't you say that if the cultivator didn't come to find you today, your Excellency would appear, why are you waiting at the door this early in the morning?
The old man thought that Lin Yi had changed his mind, and quickly welcomed him in.
Lin Yi asked straight to the point.
"Your cultivator has been in contact for so long, can you tell me all the characteristics of his body?"
The old man thought that Lin Yi was going to find the cultivator. Of course, he had to know the characteristics of the other party first, so he knew everything.
"I don't know what he looks like, but according to my observation, his life seems to be a little embarrassing."
"And sometimes they will ask me to order something to eat. There should be nothing serious to do. After all, to avoid the investigation of Wanyangzong, you can only choose to hide."
What the old man said was roughly in line with Lin Yi's guess.
Beggars have nothing serious to do. Whether they can eat or not on the day depends on how much money they beg for.
There is no need to ask anything else, Lin Yi has already guessed that the disappearance of the three little apprentices must be related to beggars.
Just listening to what the old gentleman said before, the beggar should be a good person who hates evil, why would he kidnap two little girls and a fox?
Could it be that good people are still confused by their beauty and do outrageous things?
However, the beggar hid it very well before, and Lin Yi didn't even discover the spiritual power in him.
I don't know what the realm of beggars is.
