Chapter 153 You four can't kill me
Will Jiang Lin betray Zhou Jue and Jing Kang?
Ji Xingyi remembered the bag of candy Jingkang had given him and scanned the room. He couldn't find the brown paper bag. He figured Jiang Lin must have thrown it away.
Yu Ling: "We infiltrated the house according to the original plan."
Of the four of them, Zhou Jue, Jing Kang, and Jiang Lin were all team leaders, none of them weak. With Guo Xinwen, Yang Yizhou, and others keeping watch outside, they immediately scaled the wall and sneaked into the house after seeing Jin Lushan leave the Jin residence with several servants.
The initial process went smoothly. After figuring out the basic structure of the house, the four prepared to infiltrate the most central area. It was a sizable independent courtyard located in the very center of the house.
Yu Ling: "We arrested someone and interrogated him. That room was where Jin Lushan lived. Strangely, he lived there alone, while his wife and daughter lived in another courtyard. The surrounding area was heavily guarded, and Jin Lushan even sent a bunch of people to patrol."
Following Jiang Lin's advice, Zhou Jue and his three companions took advantage of the guards' idle chatter during the shift change to climb over the wall and sneak in.
"When we went inside, we found that all the windows in the room were covered with black paper."
Not a ray of light could penetrate the room; the only lighting came from the piles of white candles inside.
The four began searching the house for books that recorded the secret history of Qingxi Town. During this process, Jiang Lin discovered a mechanism.
On Jin Lushan's bookshelf was a jade ruyi. By turning the jade ruyi, a tunnel would appear in the floor of the study.
"The four of us went down into the tunnel together and discovered an underground palace."
The underground palace was gloomy and cold. As soon as Yu Ling stepped on the floor tiles, he felt the chill creep up from the soles of his feet to his scalp, making him shiver.
Jingkang, skilled and daring, walked at the front of the group, followed by Zhou Jue, and finally Jiang Lin of Yu Ling.
Coincidentally, Yu Ling's name and Jiang Lin's name share a similar pronunciation. So, Yu Ling's first impression of Jiang Lin was quite good, and he let Jiang Lin walk in front of him while he walked behind.
The underground palace is very large, with a blood pool in the middle shaped like the Chinese character "回" (hui), which is connected to the opposite bank by four small stone bridges.
Yu Ling: "That blood pool was very strange. It was the color of blood, but it didn't smell of blood. Instead, it had an indescribable smell. It looked very viscous, and none of us dared to get close. So we split up and searched other parts of the underground palace."
There are two side chambers on the left and right sides of the underground palace. Yu Ling followed Jing Kang to the left side chamber, where the two side chambers on the left housed hundreds of beauty fans that Jin Lushan had collected over the years.
Each exquisite fan was placed on a jade fan stand, sadly arranged according to the year it was made.
Yu Ling casually picked up a beauty fan. The handle of this beauty fan, made of sandalwood, was engraved with the name of the beauty on the fan—Jiaoyu.
Upon hearing this, Ji Xing immediately pictured Qingdai's figure in his mind.
While sailing, I poured out my longing.
As we dance, we kiss our tearful eyes.
"Jingkang and I were both drawn to the beauty fan when we suddenly heard the sound of something falling into the water. When we turned around, we found that Jiang Lin had pushed Zhou Jue into the blood pool."
Yu Ling glared at Ji Xingyi as she said this: "Chi Xuan, didn't you see? When Zhou Jue tried to climb up, Jiang Lin held his head down and wouldn't let him!"
Yu Ling and Jing Kang were separated from them by the blood pool. By the time Yu Ling rushed over to save Zhou Jue, Jiang Lin had already pushed Zhou Jue into the depths of the blood pool.
"I can't pull him up! Chi Xuan, I can only watch Zhou Jue sink!" Yu Ling grabbed Chi Xuan's arm and cried bitterly.
"Where's my captain?" Su Yuning asked anxiously.
Yu Ling: "While I was rescuing Zhou Jue, Jingkang and Jiang Lin started fighting!"
Su Yuning's eyes showed a hint of doubt: "With the captain's skills being so good, there's no way Jiang Lin could beat him!"
Jingkang had only told Jiang Lin and a few others that he had served in the military, but in reality, he was a member of the special forces. Su Yuning glanced at Ji Xingyi. If it were Ji Xingyi, it was hard to say who would win, but given Jiang Lin's physique, Su Yuning absolutely did not believe that Jingkang would lose to Jiang Lin!
"He had a weapon! It was a very powerful short knife!" Yu Ling stretched out his arm: "That's what cut me!"
"That's impossible!" Su Yuning shook her head. How powerful a knife is depends on the person wielding it. Jingkang is skilled enough to disarm someone with his bare hands!
"It's the BOSS from the blood pool!"
Yu Ling didn't know what it was either. Jing Kang had already gained the upper hand when the blood pool suddenly trembled, boiling and surging as if it were alive.
“A liquid tentacle emerged from the blood pool, wrapped around Jingkang’s legs, and tried to pull him down into the pool. Jingkang grabbed onto the stone bridge,” Yu Ling said, then looked at Su Yuning. “I wanted to save him, but Jiang Lin was closer! Jiang Lin’s knife severed Jingkang’s arm, and then he was dragged into the blood pool!”
"I felt I had to get this message out, so I ran back! I didn't mean to leave him; I just couldn't!"
Yu Ling spoke with such sincerity that Guo Xinwen looked at Ji Xingyi with even more worry.
Yu Ling's description was very detailed, and it seemed that Jiang Lin was indeed the one who did it.
"That's the whole story, I've told you everything, Chi Xuan, believe me! I would never lie to you! We're on the same team, why would I lie to you!" Yu Ling gripped Chi Xuan's shoulders, each word dripping with emotion: "Even if you don't avenge Zhou Jue, you have to think about your own safety!"
Yu Ling's sharp gaze shot towards Ji Xingyi: "Jiang Lin is definitely colluding with the BOSS! Why didn't the BOSS attack Jiang Lin, but instead attacked Jing Kang when Jiang Lin was in danger! He and Jiang Lin are on the same team, he must know!"
"Who says I won't avenge Zhou Jue!" Chi Xuan roared, glaring angrily at Ji Xingyi: "Was it Jiang Lin who did it?"
"I don't know." Ji Xingyi squinted slightly, his vision began to blur again, and his ears started to ring.
To be honest, Jiang Lin is capable of doing it. In the previous instance, Mi Lan cooperated with them, but Jiang Lin still wanted to kill her.
In other words, Jiang Lin might also discover something, and kill someone in order to pass the level or for Ji Xingyi.
The youth will always choose the best solution under the circumstances.
Therefore, Ji Xingyi could only answer Chi Xuan that he did not know.
Because Jiang Lin is indeed capable of doing it.
Chi Xuan stood up, her eyes red as she looked at Ji Xingyi: "If he really betrays us, whose side will you stand on?"
Ji Xingyi glanced at the four people besides himself and said calmly, "None of you can kill me."
Chi Xuan's face stiffened. This answer meant that the man had chosen Jiang Lin. She should have known that he would choose Jiang Lin.
"What if we add the two of us too!" Yang Yizhou's angry voice suddenly came from outside the door. Behind Yang Yizhou was Wang Heng, another teammate of Chi Xuan.
The atmosphere gradually became tense, and Guo Xinwen quickly took a few steps back. She didn't have much fighting ability and didn't want to get involved.
"I'll give you a chance," Su Yuning said coldly. "I know about your relationship with Jiang Lin. Call Jiang Lin out, and we won't hurt you!"
