Chapter 20 Not Simple

"Ding dong, the task is completed, you will get a small golden bell scroll, two bottles of small spiritual energy water, and ten gold coins."

After the task was completed, Xiao Ye glanced at Xiao Jian, who was covered in injuries, and did not reply, but gave Ling Luo and his sister a look, and the three turned around and left.

Xiao Jian frowned deeply, and his face was quite pale due to the injuries on his body. Looking at the back of Xiao Ye and the three of them leaving, Xiao Jian did not hesitate or embarrass, but showed a trace of freedom.

"Thank you for saving me. I will remember this kindness! I, Xiao Jian, am not an ungrateful person. I was indeed prepared to deal with you because of Xiao Qin's incident before. There is no need to hide this. Anyway, you are my benefactors now."

Xiao Ye's free and easy behavior made Xiao Ye a little unexpected. He thought that Xiao Jian would feel embarrassed and guilty at such a time, or simply pretend that I don't need your help.

Unexpectedly, he would thank him immediately. You must know that he provoked Xiao Ye in public before, showing malice!

"Although this kid is young, he is a man of temperament." Xiao Ye's mouth curled into a smile. He thought Xiao Jian would be a strong enemy, but now it seems that he is not bad, and maybe he may become a friend in the future.

At least it is unlikely to become an enemy.

"Xiao Ye, you have to be careful. Xiao Qin said that he will ambush in the ancient forest, and he seems to have some way to make sure you will fall into his ambush."

The three of them had already walked away, but Xiao Jian's reminder sounded from behind.

This sentence is deeply engraved in their hearts!

Will Xiao Jian lie to them at this moment?

It's not necessary at all!This does not cause any harm to the three of Xiao Ye, if it does not harm them, it is to help them.

Xiao Qin is Xiao Jian's cousin, and the relationship between the two is obviously good, at least before entering the ancient forest!Why they separated is still unknown, but Xiao Jian's words are [-]% reliable.

"Xiao Qin wants to deal with us, it's understandable, but how can he set up an ambush in the ancient forest? The ancient forest is so wide that there is no necessary way, how can he set up an ambush?"

Xiao Ye's thoughts were a little confused, he never doubted that Xiao Qin would deal with him, but this kind of deal was limited to the time of meeting, how could he set up an ambush?

Did he install some tracking device on himself?
This is not 2020, there is no such so-called high technology, and there is obviously some kind of dark secret in it.

How did Xiao Qin decide the only way for the three of Xiao Ye to pass?Even Xiao Ye himself didn't know what route to take before entering the ancient forest, but Xiao Qin...

"Wait." Xiao Ye's pupils shrank, and they froze in place. A flash of understanding flashed across his face, but he couldn't be sure.

"Mr. Xiao, what are you thinking of?" Ling Luo brothers and sisters were also full of doubts. Like Xiao Ye, they didn't know the path they were going to take before entering the ancient forest. Why did Xiao Qin know?
If all these were Xiao Jian's lies, then it would make sense, but Xiao Jian had just been saved by them, and with Xiao Jian's character, he would not lie to others, and there was absolutely no need for it.

The corners of Xiao Ye's eyes twitched, and the thoughts in his mind were tumbling rapidly. The possible hypotheses, like fragments, were put together bit by bit, and finally formed a bright road.

"If this is the case, then Xiao Qin has a big problem." Xiao Ye's tone was unprecedentedly low.

"Young Master Xiao, what happened? What's going on?" Ling Luo couldn't hold back any longer, and there seemed to be a cloud of fog in front of her, waiting for her to unravel.

Xiao Ye glanced at Ling Chong and Ling Luo, then opened his mouth and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Xiao Qin should be at the small waterfall right now. He has set up an ambush and is waiting for us."

"Little waterfall? You mean..." Ling Chong's pupils shrank. From Xiao Ye's words, he seemed to guess something. In shock, murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"Don't get excited, things may not be as simple as we thought. According to speculation, Xiao Qin at least knew, or saw Ling Zixin appearing in the waterfall with his own eyes, and fighting with the strong."

Xiao Ye said: "It's because he knew about Ling Zixin's fight at the waterfall, and he knew that if you were looking for Ling Zixin, you would always find that small waterfall, so that waterfall was the only way we had to pass from the beginning, and he just happened to Just know that."

Xiao Qin knew that Ling Zixin was fighting with others at the waterfall, and also knew that Ling Luo brothers and sisters were looking for Ling Zixin, so they would definitely find the waterfall. As long as they set up an ambush at the waterfall, they would be able to wait for the three of Xiao Ye.

It was the only way to go there from the very beginning, and Xiao Qin had known this for a long time.

"You mean that Xiao Qin killed sister Zixin?" Ling Luo's beautiful eyes turned red, and he grabbed Xiao Ye's arm.

"It's not necessarily that he killed him. It is very likely that he was just an eyewitness or an insider. Think again, why did Xiao Qin contact you after Ling Zixin disappeared? Obviously there is some kind of connection. If you analyze it all, Ling Zixin's disappearance has something to do with Xiao Qin."

Brother and sister Ling Luo were also in a daze. Thinking about how Xiao Qin contacted his family when he was in the most difficult time. They were almost desperate at that time, and a spark of hope was ignited in their hearts. How grateful they were to Xiao Qin at that time.

Even if Xiao Qin later asked Ling Luo to sacrifice himself for this, they still considered it gratefully until they met Xiao Ye.

Now that I think about it, this incident is really quite a coincidence. Xiao Qin's appearance was so coincidental, it shouldn't have happened in the first place.

"Damn Xiao Qin, why did you want to kill my sister?" Ling Chong punched hard on the tree trunk, knocking down a large piece of fallen leaves!
Their Ling family is just a small family, and they are not of the same level as the Xiao family, so they can't talk about any intersection, let alone offend!However, at this moment, all the tragedies started from Ling Zixin.

"The matter is not clear yet, so don't jump to conclusions. I always feel that this matter is not that simple! Anyway, let's go to the waterfall, catch Xiao Qin, and ask him clearly."

Xiao Ye still had unresolved doubts in his mind. If this matter had something to do with Xiao Qin, then why did Xiao Qin do it?Just to get Ling Luo?
Xiao Ye took Ling Luo away from the martial arts arena, and he had been paying attention to Xiao Qin's expression at that time. Although he was angry, he was not to the point of grief, which means that he actually didn't have much affection for Ling Luo.

It is impossible for him to make a special arrangement for Ling Luo to kill Ling Zixin!
And who was it that shot and killed Ling Zixin?According to Xiao Zhen, this person's strength is superior to Xiao Zhen's, and he is definitely not Xiao Qin.

The three of them went on the road again, feeling extremely depressed. They didn't even call out the spirit rabbit in their arms. Now they focused on finding the waterfall and finding out what happened.

The sky was getting dark, and the three of them were already very close to the waterfall, but they had to stop temporarily to take a rest!

This night, there was nothing to talk about between the three of them, and their expressions were more serious than ever!
Tomorrow we will arrive at the waterfall, there is Xiao Qin's ambush there, will there be that strong man who helps Xiao Qin?
In the unknown ahead, murderous intent looms, maybe they will be buried in the waterfall tomorrow, or the truth may be revealed!

Everything is just waiting for the dawn, before that, the three of them can't keep calm!

Ling Zixin was involved in this matter, so it was impossible for the Ling Luo brothers and sisters to calm down.

Xiao Ye was not afraid, but pondered how to survive!This brand new world was before his eyes, and a wonderful life had just begun, and he did not allow himself to die in the ancient forest like this.

At the same time, the task must continue. It has to be said that the crisis ahead is worrying, but Xiao Ye is quite excited because he has to face the crisis.

There was no reason for this excitement, but he really existed.

In the package of the divine outfit system, the dark iron kitchen knife is shining, and the small golden bell scroll can be used for self-defense, and can save yourself at a critical moment.

On the right hand, the Chiyan Lingbracelet is also in the best condition, and the true energy and spiritual energy are completely saturated. At this moment, Xiao Ye's state is his current peak.

The sky was getting brighter, and the orange clouds made the sky look extraordinarily beautiful, and the singing of animals in my ears stopped, replaced by the melodious singing of birds.

Ling Chong took the lead, Xiao Ye and Ling Luo followed side by side, Lingtu buried his head, pointing out the way, a group of three shuttled through the ancient forest, this is already the third day!
gurgling...

Finally, at a certain moment, there was a slight sound of water flowing in the ears, and the expressions of the three of them instantly became dignified!
Slowly moving forward, the sound of the water flow gradually amplified, and finally there was a "squeak" in the ear, and a gust of cool water vapor rushed towards the face, which made people feel refreshed.

This is a small waterfall with a drop of less than three feet. Below the waterfall is a gurgling pool. The pool shrinks forward and turns into a mountain stream, flowing into the distance.

In front of the waterfall is an open space, except for some weeds, there is not much green vegetation.

The entire open space is surrounded by water vapor, filled with a hazy beauty.

Apart from the sound of running water, there was no other sound nearby. Xiao Ye and the others carefully observed the surroundings first, but found nothing abnormal, and it seemed that there was no ambush.

"That's my sister's clothes..."

Ling Luo had sharp eyes, and at a glance, he saw a small piece of purple clothes somewhere in the middle of the open space. The piece was stained with blood and printed on the ground, so it was not blown away by the strong wind.

Seeing the debris and bloodstains, the three of them felt extremely heavy. Looking around, the traces of the fight were already very faint, because too much time had passed, and it was almost covered up.

"Everyone, be careful and approach slowly."

After Xiao Ye made a gesture, the three of them walked slowly towards the pieces of clothes.

On the edge of the waterfall, the "whoosh" gust of wind whizzed non-stop, mixed with the sound of water blasting, making it difficult to maintain a high degree of vigilance!
However, the three of them were still cautious, and soon approached the pieces of clothes, and the spirit rabbit in their arms was already ready to move. As long as they smelled carefully, they would be able to find Ling Zixin and smell the enemy's breath by the way.

"Ling Luo, go pick it up."

Xiao Ye and Ling Chong guarded their surroundings, Ling Luo bent down, ready to pick up the pieces of clothes!
There was a sudden change, and the gust of wind whistling in the ear stopped in shock, and a beam of brilliance suddenly shot out from the pool, turned into golden light, and shot at the three of Xiao Ye at a super fast speed invisible to the naked eye.
