GBP Chapter 137 Investigation
Chapter 137 Investigation
Enduring the severe pain, Situ Xiayan lay under the bed and tried not to move, fearing that she would make any noise. Because she couldn't hear anything, she could only look out of the gap vigilantly, wondering if the flute sound had stopped and if they had left.
She waited for a while, and was hesitating whether to go out, when she saw a head appear in the gap. Her lips moved, and Situ Xiayan didn't know what she was saying, so she reached in and touched it.
Situ Xiayan quickly shrank into the corner, letting the hand touch her once, but in the end, it didn't touch anything, so it withdrew it in dismay. Situ Xiayan then mustered up the courage to move closer to the edge and looked over. Several people were talking fiercely, and the person in the lead had a very sinister expression. He was the one who touched the bed just now.
It seems that the song has no effect, and the few people can't find who triggered the mechanism, so they are getting anxious and have no way to explain.
Their expressions were so bad that Situ Xiayan thought that it might be because Yan Liuli's punishment was too harsh that they had to work hard to complete the task. But if that was the case, why would the people of Liuli Palace do things for her? Was Yan Liuli so powerful that all the disciples together could not defeat her?
No matter what, it's a good thing that they can't find me. Otherwise, if I give myself away, I'm afraid I won't get any good results. Yan Liuli hopes that she will die in an unclear way. With the technology to deal with corpses, I'm afraid these disciples will kill her with their own hands.
Several people from the Liuli Palace were arguing and came up with a brilliant idea. Situ Xiayan was relieved when she saw them leaving, but she found that they were turning the mechanism of the secret passage. The mechanism must be inside and outside, but Situ Xiayan couldn't find the location at all. If they closed it from the outside, she really couldn't get out.
In a flash, Situ Xiayan suddenly emerged from under the bed, followed the end of the team, and slipped through the gap at the last moment. The disciple closed the mechanism tightly, and Situ Xiayan saw her take out a lock and lock it directly from the outside, adding a layer of magic.
Fortunately, it just came out.
However, things were not over yet, because the secret passage was too dark, and the person in the lead was holding a lamp. She raised the lamp and began to count the number of people.
Situ Xiayan watched her counting people one by one, wondering how she could be seen if she was hiding. It was not until two girls moved a step when they could be seen that Situ Xiayan realized that she was not counting heads, but shadows!
The body can be hidden, but the shadow cannot. Situ Xiayan tried to hide behind other people, but she was taller than most people in Liuli Palace, and it was difficult for her to hide without bumping into others. The shadow was just a big lump no matter how you looked at it, and anyone who saw it would know that something was wrong.
In this case, it cannot be pointed out, but considering how meticulous these people are, could the other end of the secret passage also be locked?
Situ Xiayan could neither stay nor leave. There were only a few people coming, and she couldn't count them all. There wasn't much time left for her.
She made up her mind and decided to take a gamble. She quickly ran to the other end of the secret passage a second before the leader shone the light on her head. Everyone saw a shadow running past everyone. The leader gave an order and everyone ran after it.
However, wearing such a long skirt is not as convenient as the school uniform of Chongyun Sect. Situ Xiayan had already distanced herself from them. She looked back and saw that the man was playing the recorder again.
Blow it, she couldn't hear it. Situ Xiayan had already run to the door of the secret passage. She stretched out her hand to push it, but it wouldn't open. At this moment, she didn't care if there was someone waiting outside. She had to take it anyway. The secret passage door had a special spell that she couldn't open, so she simply summoned a spell to break the wall next to it, and quickly got out and ran away.
Although this move was a bit too big, at least she didn't expose herself, and she couldn't catch the Chongyun Sect's handle. The spell just now consumed too much spiritual energy. Situ Xiayan almost lost her strength as soon as she stepped out of the house, and fell headfirst. But she still knew that she couldn't stay here, so she crawled forward a few steps with her hands and feet, and touched a foot.
The owner of the foot was obviously also groping around on the ground. He quickly bent down, grabbed Situ Xiayan, picked her up and ran away.
The person who could do this must be one of his own who was hiding. I just don't know if he was talking to me. Situ Xiayan didn't say a word on his back, which must have scared him to death.
Situ Xiayan was brought to Ju Jifeng, and she wiped the magic circle on her body with confidence. Seeing everyone gathered together, Heng Li just let her go.
Ju Jifeng opened his mouth and said something to her. She tried hard to identify his lip shape, but quickly gave up. After all, she was not born deaf. She usually walked with her eyes straight ahead. Who would care about other people's mouths moving?
Situ Xiayan shook her head. She just couldn't hear, not that she couldn't speak. She explained the whole story and saw Ju Jifeng gave her a thumbs up.
What a heroine, she was able to do this. Although it was not difficult to practice, the difficulty was to be mentally prepared. Who would hurt themselves for no reason? But admiration was enough. None of the people present knew medical skills. Yan Yuze went back again, and no one could cure Situ Xiayan now. Qin Shuxue drew a few magic arrays, which could not be compared with medical skills. At least it stopped bleeding from the ears, and it didn't look so scary.
This operation can be said to be a failure as well as a loss of troops. Not only did they fail to bring back Xie Hongyuan, but Situ Xiayan was also injured. The problem is that if Situ Xiayan shows any abnormality in the next competition, she will immediately be suspected by Liuli Palace.
Ju Jifeng began to reflect deeply on himself. He had not accumulated any experience in the past few years, and he always ran into obstacles when he gave orders. What did this mean?
Situ Xiayan naturally couldn't hear Xie Zhiyi's crying. In fact, she had been crying for quite a while. She cried until she fainted and was given first aid by Qin Shuxue. The first thing she did when she woke up was to cry. She almost made everyone's brains explode.
"I told you not to tell her. Now it's alright." Qin Shuxue said to Heng Li, covering her ears.
"I didn't tell her. I just reported it to the headmaster. She didn't avoid it herself."
"It doesn't matter. Who of you will go and comfort her?"
"How can this be a good comfort? Your brother is dead. Try smiling." Qin Shuxue rolled her eyes at Ying Yong.
"What? My brother is dead? Which one?" Ying Yong immediately smiled, as if it had really come true.
"Get out of here, you have no feelings at all and no humanity." Qin Shuxue kicked him twice again. Others were crying there but he was laughing here. Why didn't she realize that he was so despicable before?
