In the extremely silent environment, the other party's voice was particularly clear.

Lin Wu immediately recognized who he was.

She frowned slightly, subconsciously touching the dagger in her sleeve, and said in a cold voice, "Why are you here?"

 The man did not speak, but instead there was a flurry of movement, as if he was sitting up and rummaging around for something.

The next moment, there was a soft "click" sound, and a bright light suddenly appeared in front of Lin Wu's eyes.

After not seeing the light for a long time, Lin Wu turned his face to avoid it, closed his eyes and slowly looked over again.

The other party turned on a flashlight, and under the bright light, Lin Wu could see his face clearly.

He has dark and handsome eyebrows, a straight nose, and long, narrow eyes that are deep and meaningless.

When he looked at her, his expression was very complicated, as if he was longing for her but also wary, as if he never expected to see her here.

 In fact, Lin Wu did not expect to see him here.

—Leng Linfeng, who should be in Beicheng at this moment.

"I think I should be the one to ask you why you are here, right?" Leng Linfeng said slowly.

Lin Wu noticed that what he was wearing was not a diving suit, but casual clothes, which were just wet from the water she was carrying.

 He should have been here for a long time.

 Because there was a tired look between his eyebrows, his eyes were bloodshot, and he had some thin stubble on his chin. It was obvious that he had not taken care of himself for at least a day and was in a state of high mental stress.

So, he entered here on the same day as Bo Yuting?

Lin Wu glanced at it and then looked away. He quickly took out a spare flashlight from his bag, then stood up and looked around.

This seemed to be a naturally formed cave. The entrance of the cave she fell into was three or four meters high on the right. It was surrounded by stone walls. Only there was a passage five or six meters behind Leng Linfeng. There was a passage on the steps. This bag should belong to Leng Linfeng.

It seems that there are a lot of secrets under the Ninth Pier, and the storage area outside is just a cover. This is the real storage place of the Ninth Pier.

I just don’t know what I will see after entering that passage, and what the Situ family hides here.

But according to the information she found, the Ninth Pier was not the territory that the Situ family had from the beginning, but was acquired from others after their rise, about two years ago.

If her guess was correct, it was actually the Huo family who was interested in this place, but it was not convenient for them to come forward and take the place with the help of the Situ family.

 In this case, it is not surprising that Leng Linfeng would appear here.

 —He is also an ally of the Huo family.

Lin Wu's eyes returned to Leng Linfeng.

Just now I saw that he was facing the light. When the light shone on his face, Lin Wu found that his face was very pale and there was blood on the corners of his mouth. I don’t know if it was caused by where she hit while trying to save her.

This made Lin Wu's voice less cold when he spoke.

"You should know very well why I appear here. I have never given up the pursuit. But seeing you, I can be absolutely certain that the direction of my investigation is correct - the person who has secretly supported the development of the Situ family to this day is indeed That ethnic group with the surname Huo.”

Hearing this, Leng Linfeng lowered his eyes slightly, stood up on the ground, and coughed a few times uncontrollably.

Lin Wu frowned, "I never owe others favors. Where were you injured? I have painkillers, anti-inflammatory drugs, bandages, alcohol and other things in my bag. I leave them for you. You can handle them yourself."

"No need. I was indeed injured, but not because I saved you."

After Leng Linfeng finished speaking, he walked back to get his bag.

Lin Wu followed, and the light of the flashlight shone at the entrance. There was a long passage inside, and he didn't know where it led. But she did not go in immediately, she just stopped at the foot of the steps, looked at Leng Linfeng solemnly, and asked, "When did you come in?"

Leng Linfeng paused for a moment and turned his head to look at her, "I can understand that you still paid attention to me after you went to Jingzhong. When you found out that I was missing, you looked for me, and then you came here. Is it also for me that you came in? ?”

Lin Wu ignored his words and asked again, "When did you come in?"

Leng Linfeng twitched his lips in a self-deprecating manner and said, "Yesterday, in the afternoon."

 After Boyuting.

Lin Wu immediately asked: "Did you meet anyone or anything after you came in?"

 “Why do you ask this?”

Leng Linfeng did not answer the question, walked down the steps with his bag, and stopped in front of Lin Wu.

He said: "Lin Wu, I've warned you many times not to pursue the investigation any further. Do you know that you were almost dead? If I hadn't been leaving and happened to be here and stopped when I heard some movement, I wouldn't have been able to save you. , you will fall and get injured. If you are here by yourself, you will never find a way out. And the danger here is so great that no matter how good you are, you will die here!"

He stretched out his hand towards Lin Wu: "Follow me. I have finished my work and am leaving. You will not be in danger if you follow me."

Lin Wu looked at him motionless and suddenly said: "The Huo family asked you to come."

 Leng Linfeng said nothing.

 From Lin Wu's point of view, it was no different from acquiescing.

"Then why did you come in?" Lin Wu asked again.

Leng Linfeng frowned and still did not answer.

 But Lin Wu could already deduce a lot of information.

The Situ family is about to collapse. The most urgent thing for the Huo family at the moment is to remove the exposed weapons from the Ninth Pier. There is a 50% chance that Leng Linfeng came here for this matter.

 But the bag Leng Linfeng was carrying didn't look like there was much in it.

 The Mingqi is not with him.

Two possibilities: first, Bo Yuting has already obtained the Ming Qi; second, the Ming Qi is still somewhere and no one has found it.

Leng Linfeng said that he had already finished his work, so she could only guess whether the Huo family's intention was not to transfer the weapon, but to destroy it?

 After all, if the artifact comes from the Huo family, it is real. The Huo family knows the information above, and it doesn’t matter if they get it or destroy it. If Leng Linfeng came in and found another wave of people coming to get the weapons, they would probably destroy them on the spot.

In this case, she could only hope that Bo Yuting had seen the Ming device early and remembered the information on it.

 But if this is the case, what was her experience outside just now? Why does that fake Lu Guichi have a Buddha head? Is the Buddha's head the holy weapon that everyone wants?

If the Buddha head is the obvious weapon, it means that Leng Linfeng is doing something else here. What matter is important enough for the Huo family to send Leng Linfeng to handle it personally?

Furthermore, she only discovered that there was something wrong with the Buddha's head through mysticism. If Lu Guichi had not discovered it before, it means that he did not know that there was something wrong with the Buddha's head at the beginning. If the Buddha's head is really the obvious weapon that everyone is looking for, why doesn't Lu Guichi know there is something wrong with it?

 Unless Lu Guichi is not from the Huo family.

Even the foreign objects Boyu Ting encountered before were not sent by the Huo family to guard the Mingqi.

 This proves a very troublesome thing - the existence of third-party forces here.

Leng Linfeng took a deep breath and interrupted Lin Wu's conjecture: "I can't tell you what I do. But I can tell you that the hole you came out of is one-way, and you can't go back. Now you have only one way. , that means leaving with me.”

Lin Wu looked past him and behind him.

Leng Linfeng said in a cold voice: "I won't let you go in. It has become very dangerous inside. In fact, the entire reservoir area will be very dangerous. You and I only have forty minutes to leave here."
