Chapter 12 Too Smart
Of course Su Mo didn't leave.
The situation is unclear, what should I do?
Who knows what kind of storms you will bring back after this trip home?
Although he saw Wang Xianglin in the inn and handed the brocade box to him, he did receive a system prompt telling him that the task was completed.
But... this situation is getting weirder!
The conversation between the two waiters in the inn is a strange one.
In the past few days, there were two other people who came to see Wang Xianglin besides himself.
A man and a woman.
Among those four people, only two are still alive, a man and a woman.
This forced Su Mo to consider the two together.
So, the reason why the remaining two of the four people did not have any conspiracy or trickery against him was because they took advantage of this time to find Wang Xianglin?
But once this speculation comes true, there will be more strange things.
Su Mo didn't know who Wang Xianglin was .
However, as the "recipient" of this escort, apart from myself, do other people know the situation of this person?
Judging from what is known so far, they most likely know!
Otherwise, why would they sacrifice themselves and come directly to find Wang Xianglin?
But the question also arises from this, why didn't she give up herself earlier or later, but only gave up herself to find Wang Xianglin after two people had died?
Why didn't they go look for those two people before they died?
What are the concerns?
And now, judging from the results, after they went to find Wang Xianglin, Wang Xianglin was safe and sound.
The visit of these two people was not even sneaky or furtive, but an open and aboveboard visit.
So what is the relationship between them?
This did not allow Su Mo to not think more.
Before going upstairs to meet Wang Xianglin and handing the brocade box to him, Su Mo had considered a possibility.
Wang Xianglin may not be Wang Xianglin.
Someone has taken over someone else's nest and impersonated someone else in order to steal the brocade box in his hand.
If this speculation is true, it can explain the above questions.
However, when the system prompts that the task is completed, Wang Xianglin is Wang Xianglin!
This was already a confusing puzzle, but it became even more confusing.
As a person who was inexplicably dragged into this situation, can I go home willingly and happily with so much confusion?
How much experience does this person have?
So, after Su Mo left Jiming Posthouse, he checked carefully and made sure that there was no one around who was monitoring him, then he secretly returned to Jiming Posthouse again.
Wang Xianglin's situation has great potential. If he wants to find out the whole story and get out of this matter, the breakthrough point will naturally lie in this person.
Sure enough, late at night, Wang Xianglin left his room and ran all the way here.
This journey of lightness skill can be said to be extremely superb.
Su Mo relied on his inner strength to support himself and not fall down. Otherwise, he might not have been able to catch up.
What Su Mo never expected was that Wang Xianglin, who was just fine, suddenly turned into a grown-up girl?
…
…
Under the night sky, the two people looked at each other, both speechless.
The confusion in Su Mo's eyes gradually turned into contemplation, and then he felt a little regretful.
Likewise, the woman opposite also sighed:
"I thought you were a smart person, but I didn't expect you to be too smart."
A smart person naturally knows that he should not be in a whirlpool, and a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.
However, this excessive cleverness caused Su Mo, who should have left safely, to be back in the midst of right and wrong.
Su Mo is indeed a smart man. He can understand the meaning of the string music. He sighed and said, "Is it too late for me to leave now?"
"I'm afraid it's too late..."
The woman sighed, looked around and said, "They're here."
"Coming for you?"
"Could it be that they are targeting you, a completely unknown escort?"
"You deliberately lured them here, so you must be sure, right?"
“There used to be, but not much now.”
"Why?"
"...Of course it's because of you."
"How about you help me explain that I am just a passerby who is too curious. I don't intend to get involved in your disputes..."
"It's too late. Now, you have fallen into their sight. If you want to escape unscathed, there is only one way."
"any solution?"
"Kill them all!"
The moment the words fell, a column of water suddenly erupted from the lake behind the woman.
A column of water rose up with a bang, and at the same time, the person in the water flew up.
As soon as that man made a move, a star of light appeared, like a meteor or a spark. In the blink of an eye, the star of light was behind the woman.
But the woman had already turned around.
As his hands turned, the sharp edge flew across the sky, but a ding sound was heard. What should have been a sudden sneak attack fell apart in an instant under the blade.
The person who attacked didn't seem surprised at all, he flipped his palms and came towards the woman, but before he got close, the woman had disappeared.
The shock lasted only for a moment, and he felt a chill in his neck. When he looked down, he saw the tip of a single-edged sword sticking out of his neck, with bright red blood. Before the blood could drip, he was kicked hard in the back.
The whole person flew to the shore, and without even struggling, he was already dead .
The woman flew down and looked around. Ten people had already come silently around her.
Nine of them were hiding under black clothes, their eyes were solemn and cold.
Only one person was not wearing black, and his expression was solemn but also mixed with joy.
Su Mo knew this person...
One of those four!
"Jade Soul Killing Technique! It's indeed the remnant of the Yu Family!!"
He spoke at this time, his tone excited, even a little domineering:
"My Lords, the remnants of the Yu family have survived by chance, but they don't know how to thank the heavens. They actually used the mysterious buckle as a lure to lure us into the trap. I'm afraid they are plotting something big. Whether the mysterious buckle is real or fake is still unknown. Please be careful and try to capture it alive."
"Well, you have a point."
The man in black who was closest to him nodded slightly, and the single-edged sword in his hand expanded and sprang up, with the tip protruding half an inch from its sheath.
"Then thank you very much..."
The man clasped his hands together, but when he said this, he saw a flash of cold light, and the knife energy suddenly pierced through his neck!
He subconsciously covered his neck with his hands, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"As for the…… "
Before he could even ask "why", he fell to the ground and died.
"Crime one: I kept you for so many years so that you could secretly investigate the location of Xuanjikou. Not only did you get nothing from Xuanjikou, but you also fell into someone's trap. What's the point of keeping you around?
"Second crime: scheming against others and thinking that you can get credit and reward. You are so stupid that you deserve to die!
"Crime three: Who are you to teach me how to do things?
"Today, you are asking for your own death."
The man in black spoke in a solemn and indifferent tone, and turned his gaze to the woman: "Are you Yu Lingxin?"
