After Jiang Yu finished speaking, she saw Lin Zichen on the side starting to get up and get dressed. If it were for other things, it might not be the case, but regarding Zhou Xiaotong, Lin Zichen certainly would not waste a second.
"I don't know, someone came to the villa just now. When I went out, I saw Lingya already in the living room, injured."
"What now?" Jiang Yu asked anxiously.
"I don't know if they will come back. Do I need to call the police first?"
Before Jiang Yu could reply, Lin Zichen snatched the phone and said: "Xiaotong, listen, you and Lingya are hiding in a safe place and are not allowed to go anywhere or do anything. I will be there soon.
"
Hearing Lin Zichen's voice, Zhou Xiaotong suddenly felt safe. She nodded vigorously: "Well, I know, I'm not going anywhere, I'll wait for you."
Lin Zichen ignored the old gentleman's words and left the college with Jiang Yu.
When they returned to Shishan Villa, it was already around three o'clock in the morning. As soon as they walked into the courtyard of the villa, Lin Zichen and Jiang Yu were both stunned at the same time.
There was a corpse not far from the door of the villa. Lin Zichen walked over and took a look. It was a male corpse, and he did not recognize the face.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around. There were no other bodies, and there were no signs of a fight.
"This matter is a bit complicated..." Lin Zichen narrowed his eyes slightly and said.
"What's wrong? Zichen, who is this person?" Jiang Yu asked.
Lin Zichen slowly shook his head: "I don't know, let's go in first."
Lin Zichen had no time to clean up the body and walked into the villa. After all, what he was most worried about at this time was Zhou Xiaotong.
There was no one in the living room, and there were no signs of a fight. It was similar to the courtyard. Lin Zichen was almost certain that a master had come to the villa.
Although the person outside is dead, his physique is not weak. He is probably a warrior. In addition, the person who came must have fought against Lingya, but no damage was caused anywhere. The conclusion is very simple. The other party is a master, and he will be defeated in a matter of minutes.
Solving the man outside and Ling Ya will not cause any damage at all.
Thinking of this, he quickly went upstairs and directly entered Lingya's room.
In the room, Zhou Xiaotong was sitting by the bed, looking anxious, while Lingya was lying flat on the bed, looking a little weak, but not unconscious.
Seeing Lin Zichen come in, Zhou Xiaotong stepped forward and hugged Lin Zichen: "Zichen, you are here, you scare me to death, Lingya..."
Lin Zichen nodded and patted her back: "It's okay, I'm here."
After saying that, he carried Zhou Xiaotong to the bedside, and Jiang Yu followed.
"Brother Zichen, I..."
Lin Zichen shook his head: "Don't talk yet."
After saying that, he took Lingya's pulse and then nodded slowly: "The injury is not serious, the other party should have spared some effort. Lingya, please take a pulse nourishing pill first."
Lingya swallowed a pill and her breathing became smoother: "Brother Zichen, I'm feeling better. You said they were holding back...why is that?"
"I don't know, but with his strength, it shouldn't be difficult to kill you."
Lin Zichen narrowed his eyes slightly and thought for a while: "By the way, is Shuang'er okay?"
Zhou Xiaotong was stunned by this question: "Shuang'er? She didn't leave the house, she probably didn't wake up."
After Zhou Xiaotong finished speaking, the atmosphere in the whole room became completely quiet.
The three of them were looking at Lin Zichen, as if no one else should speak at this time, and they were just waiting for him to say what to do next.
Suddenly, Lin Zichen opened his eyes wide, turned around and walked out. Jiang Yu quickly followed in.
Walking to Wu Shuang'er's door, Lin Zichen knocked on the door and immediately became worried when he heard there was no response.
"Is this girl sleeping so well?"
"If you slept well, you probably weren't in the room!"
With that said, Lin Zichen opened the door and walked in. Jiang Yu immediately showed a look of surprise. Sure enough, as Lin Zichen said, Wu Shuang'er's room was empty.
The bedding on the bed was messy. It was obvious that Wu Shuang'er had gotten up just now. It was unknown whether she had left the room or not.
"Zi Chen, what...what's going on here? What does this matter have to do with Shuang'er?"
Lin Zichen did not respond, but stood there, with an expression on his face that sometimes furrowed his eyebrows and sometimes stared, making Jiang Yu dare not speak any more.
In the end, Lin Zichen didn't speak, but quickly ran back to Lingya's room.
"Lingya, how many people came tonight, have you seen their faces clearly?" Lin Zichen asked.
Lingya was stunned by the question and quickly recalled it.
"Two people, no...three, oh no, two people!"
"Oh, grandma, how many people are there? Why are they still so old?" Jiang Yu said anxiously.
Lingya scratched her hair hard and said with certainty: "Yes, there are two people. I saw three people at that time. It should be the trick of one of them!"
Lin Zichen frowned suddenly: "Clone?"
"It seems like it, but it doesn't look like it. Brother Zichen, it's like this. It seems that one person can become like two people."
Lin Zichen thought for a while, Lingya definitely didn't know much about the real clone technique, which also made it impossible for him to judge whether it was a clone or an advanced soul method. However, one thing is certain, the one who came tonight must be
Master.
"What about your appearance? What about your clothes?" Lin Zichen asked.
"Looks..." Lingya thought for a moment and suddenly opened her eyes wide, "Brother Zichen, they are wearing very strange clothes. The clothes on their bodies are very thick, and... they look a bit like the clothes that we old people in Yamabe wear.
.”
"Huh?" A picture immediately appeared in Lin Zichen's mind. When he went to Dayue Mountain, he did notice that some old people in the mountains were still wearing foreign clothes. However, with the strength of Dayue Mountain, it seemed difficult to produce such masters.
Yes, and he has a good relationship with Otsukiyama, so this shouldn't be the case.
There is also Wu Cun wearing this kind of clothes, but whether it is Wu Zhu or Ling Po, even if they want Shuang'er to go back, they will never use this method, and there is still one lying outside, and there is already a scene.
human life.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Lin Zichen's mind, and he widened his eyes: "No...it can't be..."
Seeing Lin Zichen's expression, the three women also became nervous at the same time. Jiang Yu said: "Zichen, what's wrong?"
Lin Zichen frowned, yes, he must be from Miaojiang, with such clothes, such strength, and... that so-called clone can be explained. It is not a real clone at all, but a kind of Gu!
"I probably know who those people are, but... there's one thing I still can't figure out."
"Huh? What can't you figure out?" Jiang Yu said.
"That body outside!"
Lin Zichen took a deep breath, then walked out of the room and walked straight out of the villa.
Walking to the male corpse, Lin Zichen squatted down and took a look. The man's expression did not show much pain when he died. Generally speaking, this was because the killing speed was so fast that he had no time to make painful moves.
Due to expression.
The most important thing is that his lower lip turned dark purple. Lin Zichen judged that this was not caused by human beings' lack of oxygen, but because of external forces, otherwise it would not be possible for only his lower lip to be dark.
Thinking of this, he immediately put three fingers on the deceased's neck. Although the arteries were no longer beating, he could still feel the breath in his body.
Seeing Lin Zichen's actions, Jiang Yu felt sick. After all, what he was touching was not a human being, but... a corpse.
"It's indeed a poison!"
After feeling the breath of Gu, Lin Zichen immediately confirmed his thoughts. The Miao people came to Shishan Villa!
But he didn't understand why Wu Shuang'er disappeared when the other party's target should be him.
Naturally, Lin Zichen would not believe that Shuang'er colluded with these people. Therefore, the most likely possibility is that the other party caught Shuang'er in order to blackmail him. If his analysis was good, the other party would contact him soon. He was no longer involved in this kind of thing.
Experienced it for the first time.
Afterwards, he told the three women his thoughts, but Zhou Xiaotong immediately said: "Zichen, I think... that may not be the case."
"Huh? Xiaotong, what do you think?"
"I think Zichen is right. Someone has kidnapped Sister Yi before, just to make Zichen show up. Yes, Sister Xiaotong, haven't you done it too?" Jiang Yu said.
"Xiaoyu, let Xiaotong speak first!" Lin Zichen said seriously.
"Yes, there was indeed a mistake, but this time is different. Don't you think the other party has a purpose this time?" Zhou Xiaotong said.
"Yes, the goal is Zichen!" Jiang Yu said.
Lin Zichen did not speak, thinking about Zhou Xiaotong's words in his mind.
"No, the target was Shuang'er. Otherwise, why didn't they take Lingya and me away? And who is that person outside?"
"Xiaotong, you mean... that person outside is probably here to compete with these Miao people for Shuang'er?" Lin Zichen asked.
"I'm not sure, but I think the other party's goal is Shuang'er!"
Lin Zichen nodded slowly. What Zhou Xiaotong said did make sense. In terms of relationship, the other party should take Zhou Xiaotong away. After all, she and Lin Zichen were obviously closer, but these Miao people took Shuang'er away.
And there is another key point, that is... the Wu village where Shuang'er is located is a branch of the Wu clan, so Shuang'er and Miao Jiang must have some kind of relationship!
Thinking of this, Lin Zichen opened his eyes and nodded. No matter what the other party's purpose was, it seemed that he had to go to Miao territory this time, and he had to bring Shuang'er back!
"Old sir, I'm afraid I have to leave Yanjing for a while!" Lin Zichen immediately dialed Nangong Jue's personal phone number.
"What? Didn't you agree to stay in the academy?" Nangong Jue's voice was full of surprise and dissatisfaction.
"I'm sorry, old man, something happened here. I must leave."
"This... Zichen, where are you going? I agree to leave China, but not anywhere else!" Nangong Jue's tone was extremely firm.
Lin Zichen hesitated for a few seconds and said: "Miao Jiang!"
"What? Miao territory?"
These words seemed to hit Nangong Jue's nerves, and he shouted immediately.
"No, I don't allow it, you must not go!"
"No, things are different this time. Old gentleman, I'm sorry, I have to go!"
