Cheng Lin was indeed a little surprised. Is it a coincidence? Or not? He came specifically for him? Who is it? Could it be that the black organization came to retaliate? No way...
Once the storm of thoughts in his mind started, it never ended. He always felt that the strange couple and monks next door were up to no good. After all, it was such a coincidence.
The two sides met each other, and everyone just nodded politely without saying anything extra. The other party seemed to be just here for a trip, and what they showed towards Cheng Lin and Cao Wei was only moderate curiosity about their age group.
No other meaning is revealed.
Cheng Lin asked the owner of the B&B casually, and the information he got was pitiful and crude. He only knew that the young man in the couple was named Gu, which was a somewhat rare surname. From his accent, he guessed that he was from the Northeast. He didn't know anything about the rest.
Are you still a fellow countryman...
Cheng Lin murmured in his heart.
"Obviously, they didn't realize that we are also practitioners, otherwise, the expressions and demeanor would not be so natural. Of course, if their acting skills are good, I didn't tell you."
Returning to the bedroom, Cheng Lin and Cao Wei gathered together to analyze.
Cao Wei was a little excited, with bright eyes, and said, "Could it be someone from the black organization? Come here to seek revenge on us?"
Her guess was somewhat similar to Cheng Lin's initial thoughts. The main reason was that both of them were still students. They really had no enemies to speak of. It was only a matter of meeting that San cultivator in the magic city projection. That San cultivator was one thing.
The attack on Xiu failed to kill the two of them, and they died. Later, Xu Dong was implicated. The black organization would surely figure out the whole story sooner or later. The two guessed, what if the other party wanted to retaliate?
This idea is not impossible.
Although Cheng Lin doubted whether he was worthy of having a killer come over, the more formal the organization, the less emotional factors would affect the decision-making. The plot of "revenge" was only suitable for small fights.
How can a real organization be so emotional and childish? People have to consider the cost, right? Besides, the Second Division of the Magic City is working hard to crack down on and track down these people. It's too late for them to hide and avoid the limelight. How can they have the leisure to come and take revenge?
Do they think they can't die quickly enough?
"I guess it's unlikely, but I can't completely rule out the possibility." Cheng Lin sat on the sofa, stroking his chin in thought.
After a while, he suddenly said: "It would be great if I could get more information. What do you think, I go over and take the initiative to test it out?"
Cao Wei sat next to him, her eyes sparkling. She had no fear at all about the danger that might come. Instead, she found it super exciting. When it came to fighting, Cao Wei had never been afraid of anyone else. She was tricked by the casual cultivator with poison last time.
She still remembered her grudge, thinking that if the other party was really a killer, she would definitely go over and kill them.
"Testing? No, I have a way."
Cao Wei said.
Cheng Lin looked at her suspiciously, "What can you do?"
"I can hear their conversation." Cao Wei pointed to her ear and said seriously.
"Superpower? Another sensory power of yours?" Cheng Lin reacted instantly.
During the previous projection of the altar, he learned that Cao Wei had a rare "dual-system awakening" talent, possessing two powers, one of which was the physical system, which is transformation, and the other seemed to be the perception system, but the specific
What it was, he didn't know.
Cao Wei nodded, "Yeah, I can temporarily enhance my hearing."
So good? Cheng Lin raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect this little grass to have such abilities besides violently transforming into a hammer man. The soundproofing of this B&B was really good. Cheng Lin really couldn't hear the other party's conversation. He hurriedly urged, let him
She eavesdropped.
Cao Wei nodded, her eyes widened, staring in the direction of the next door. Her two little ears suddenly moved, and extremely obscure spiritual energy fluctuations appeared on her body. The fluctuations in the perception system were very small. Unless there was a special detective on the other side,
Test your abilities, or have a higher level of cultivation than Cao Wei, otherwise you won't be able to sense anything.
With her hearing ability turned on, Cao Wei's little face suddenly became serious.
Cheng Lin watched anxiously from the side and waited for a while before asking: "Did you hear anything?"
"It's all nonsense, don't make any noise, I'll listen for a while."
After almost half an hour, Cao Wei's face suddenly changed significantly, as if she had discovered something.
Her face turned a little red, her hands were gripping the sofa a little helplessly, and her expression became awkward and weird, mixed with some kind of strange excitement.
Cheng Lin was watching confused, "What's going on? Did you find something? What are they talking about?"
Cao Wei looked at him with a blushing face and hesitated: "They...are screaming."
"Call?"
"Well, it's just words like um um, ah ah, hard, ugh... I'm still panting, as if it's very hard..."
Cheng Lin was stunned when he heard this and said in embarrassment: "Turn off the superpower! Don't listen anymore!!"
"Oh..." Cao Wei dispelled the superpower with some guilt.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward. She glanced at Cheng Lin who was speechless, suddenly coughed and said, "Actually, besides these, there is still some important information."
"what's the message?"
"What transactions are they talking about, Yangzhou market, gatherings of casual cultivators, broken magic weapons... and other words, the words are very vague, they are breathing and talking at the same time, it is unclear, I can't understand..." Cao Wei
After thinking for a moment, he said.
Cheng Lin was a little surprised. This couple was quite interesting. They were doing informal things and talking about serious things at the same time. How could these words add to the fun?
"Did you mention the two of us?" Cheng Lin thought for a while and asked.
"No..." Cao Wei said a little disappointed.
Cheng Lin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the other party was not here for them. Living next door was probably just a coincidence. After all, there were only so many B&Bs nearby... This was the best situation. Cheng Lin wanted to have a good time.
Relax for a few days, I really don’t want to cause unnecessary trouble and ruin my good mood...
However, the identity of the couple next door does not look like small lapels, but more like casual cultivators. I don’t know if they are “legal casual cultivators” or illegal. From the words they mentioned, it is obvious that the purpose of coming here is not simple.
, travel may be just a pretense, and the real purpose is something else.
Cao Wei also thought of this and blinked: "Should we investigate?"
Cheng Lin thought for a while, shook his head, touched her head, and said: "Since they are not here for us, then ignore them. Again, as long as they don't hurt others or make trouble, the rest will not matter.
, let’s just ignore it.”
Cao Wei did not hide from his hand. She enjoyed Cheng Lin's rubbing with her little head. She squinted her eyes like a kitten. After hearing this, she nodded: "Yes, I will listen to you."
After a pause, she suddenly said: "To be on the safe side, how about... I listen to it more?"
Cheng Lin patted her little head gently: "Don't listen!!"
…
…
After confirming that the other party was not here by himself, Cheng Lin relaxed a lot. In the next two days, he and Cao Wei continued to play in Yangzhou. When they got tired of watching Slender West Lake, they went to other places in the city to play. There was nothing to do anyway.
How to be happy.
During this period, the couple did not leave. They went out early in the day and came back at night, as if they were just ordinary traveling couples.
But Cheng Lin didn't know what was going on secretly, and he didn't bother to care.
Gradually, he stopped paying attention to this couple.
After playing comfortably for a few days, he finally felt that his fatigue was almost gone. Perhaps relaxation was really effective. Although he had not practiced in the past few days, he clearly felt that his cultivation was improving.
It seems that it is based on the peak of the second level and is constantly approaching the third level.
It seems like there will be a breakthrough in the next moment.
It's just that this "next moment" is a little less meaningful. In the blink of an eye, counting the time, more than a week has passed since the shadow of the Demonic City's Traceless Island disappeared. Cheng Lin finally began to withdraw his attention and focus on his practice.
He was thinking that a new deduction could be put on the agenda.
