Chapter 1934
Night falls quickly.
In the desert village, various forces are gathering more and more. There are famous sects, some crooked ones, some world-famous martial arts masters, and some notorious villains.
All kinds of groups, a mixture of people, the good and the bad.
Although they have different identities and different sects, everyone has the same goal, which is to enter the oasis to hunt for treasure.
As a result, the village was overcrowded; it is not new for friction and fights to occur one after another.
Evil people will secretly kill people, steal goods, and plunder goods by force; while decent people will also take advantage of the situation to reduce competitors in the name of punishing evil people.
After nightfall, a bloody storm began to quietly spread in the village.
Some people have died before their treasure hunt even begins.
At this moment, inside the hotel near the entrance of the village.
Lu Chen, Li Qingcheng, Shi Hao, Qiao Yi, and Xue Feng were studying the map drawn by Feng Yao.
The map is drawn rather hastily and is really difficult to understand without careful study.
Of course, the main reason is that Feng Yao drew this map based on his memory, and some things may not be correct.
"What is this map drawn on? I can't understand it at all!" Shi Hao scratched his head as he looked at it.
"Don't count on me for brainstorming matters. I'm only responsible for fighting." Qiao Yi sat aside, minding his own business and drinking a small drink.
He hated trouble more than anything.
"If the starting point of the map is a desert village, then we have to find an oasis, which is at least a day's journey away, and during this journey, we have to pass through two dangerous places." Li Qingcheng pointed at the scrawled map and explained while observing : "Here is a gathering place of quicksand. You must be extra careful when passing by, otherwise once you get stuck in it, you will soon suffocate and die. As for here, the weather environment is even worse, and the ground temperature can reach more than 70 degrees. If you are unlucky, you can suffer , and even encounter sandstorms."
"Really? Do you really understand this map?" Shi Hao was surprised.
"Before coming here, I studied the topography of the Death Desert, and combined with the map drawn by Feng Yao, I can roughly deduce the location of the oasis." Li Qingcheng replied.
"I have to admit that in some aspects, women's minds are more delicate, unlike us old men who don't know anything at all." Shi Hao admired sincerely.
Although he was hunting for treasures for his master, he didn't make any detailed preparations before coming. He just took it step by step.
But Li Qingcheng is different. The other party not only has a professional team, but also has professional knowledge. Every step is clearly planned.
It seems that any changes are within control.
It is indeed unusual for a woman to lead such a large team.
"Now that we understand the map, when will we set off?" Qiao Yi asked abruptly.
"The environment of the Death Desert is harsh. For safety reasons, we cannot hastily go, so before leaving, we have to prepare enough transportation vehicles, including camels. I have contacted the village chief and asked him to help arrange related matters at double the price. If it's quick, it can be done tonight, if it's slow, it will be almost ready tomorrow." Li Qingcheng explained.
As soon as she entered the desert village, she contacted the village chief Zhao Ankang and paid a large sum of money to purchase a large number of camels to carry supplies.
Calculating the time, there should be results soon.
"Wonderful", is the only word that came out of the team's mouth.
While several people were discussing, the light bulb above their heads suddenly flickered on and off.
After a few seconds, the light bulb suddenly went out, plunging the room into darkness.
"What's going on? There's a power outage?"
A few people walked out and took a look and found that the entire hotel was completely dark. It was obvious that there was a power outage.
There were even more complaints in various surrounding rooms.
"What the hell? This shitty place doesn't even have electricity!"
"This trashy hotel, check out!"
"Hotel Boss, where is the boss?!"
"..."
At this moment, there was a lot of yelling and swearing in the hotel. Continuously.
After all, the room prices here are several times more expensive than outside.
Even if the conditions are simple, now even the electricity has been cut off, so naturally everyone is particularly unhappy.
"Dear guests, please be patient. There is something wrong with the circuit in the village. The village chief has sent someone to repair it. I believe it will be fixed soon." "
Before that, I will call the waiter to provide service to each room. You will be given two candles, please make do with them for a while."
The boss's voice came from the hotel's PA.
Although everyone was dissatisfied, they had no choice but to endure it a little.
After a while.
A middle-aged woman, carrying a homemade lantern, walked into Lu Chen's room.
"Guests, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. I'll light the candles for you." The middle-aged woman laughed a little, then took out two candles from her bag and placed them on two sides of the room. corner.
"Click!"
The match slid, the candle was lit, and white smoke rose.
When the candle was lit, the yellow glimmer quickly spread to the room.
Although it is not as bright as a light bulb, the surrounding can be barely seen.
"Auntie, thank you." Shi Hao thanked her.
"It's all what I should do. I know you are busy, So I won't bother you here."
The middle-aged woman smiled, holding a lantern and preparing to leave.
"Wait a minute."
Lu Chen suddenly blocked the door, looked at the middle-aged woman indifferently, and asked, "Who asked you to do this?" "
Ah?"
The middle-aged woman was stunned and said with some doubts: "Sir, what do you mean by that? I don't understand."
"The Candle, who gave it to you?" Lu Chen asked.
"Oh, you're talking about this? It's the boss's arrangement. He was worried because of no electricity and you couldn't see or move around, so he sent two candles to each room." The middle-aged woman explained.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chen suddenly took action, grabbed the middle-aged woman's neck, lifted her up, and shouted with cold eyes: "I ask again, who is it? If you dare to hide anything, don't Blame me for being cruel!"
Seeing Lu Chen's behavior, everyone was astonished and completely confused.
"What's the situation?
Is this guy crazy?"

Chapter 1935
"Guest...Guest...I don't know what you are talking about? Let go quickly, I can't breathe." The
middle-aged woman lifted her feet off the ground and her face turned red. Her body kept struggling, but to no avail.
In Chen Lu's hands, she was like a fragile chicken that could die at any time.
"Brother Lu, what are you doing?" Shi Hao frowned, a little confused.
Taking action against an innocent civilian is not what a righteous person would do.
"Lu Chen! Are you crazy? People kindly gave us candles, but you actually hurt people. Do you have any humanity left?!" Seeing this, Xue Feng immediately rebuked him, looking filled with indignation.
On the other hand, Qiao Yi was drinking wine leisurely, like an outsider.
As for Li Qingcheng, she looked puzzled but did not speak.
She knew that Lu Chen must have his own reasons for doing this.
"There is something wrong with this person. She is trying to harm us."
Lu Chen stared at the middle-aged woman with no intention of letting go.
"Sir, I...I didn't do anything. You must have misunderstood."
The middle-aged woman looked frightened, her voice was hoarse, and she was weak and helpless.
"Brother Lu, you said she wants to harm us? What evidence do you have?" Shi Hao asked.
"That's right! How could she, a country woman, have any bad intentions? I think you are just deliberately looking for trouble!" Xue Feng shouted.
He had long disliked Lu Chen, so he took this opportunity to suppress him.
"The candle she lit is poisonous. If you inhale it for more than three minutes, you will feel dizzy. If you inhale it for more than five minutes, you will die. Do you think she has bad intentions?" Lu Chen looked back at Xue Feng and asked
.
Hearing this, the middle-aged woman's pupils shrank, and a look of fear flashed across her face.
"Nonsense!" Xue Feng didn't believe it at all and continued to shout: "It's just two candles, how could it be poisonous? People like you are suspicious by nature!" "
If you think it's not poisonous, you might as well get closer and smell it to see if you die in the end, you son of a gun." Lu Chen responded coldly.
"You..." Xue Feng gritted his teeth and wanted to retort, but he did not dare to risk his life.
The main reason is that Lu Chen's appearance is so determined that it is difficult for people to doubt him.
"This candle is indeed weird."
Shi Hao was very upright. He actually walked to the candle and smelled it carefully.
Soon, he felt dizzy, and he was so frightened that he immediately blew out the candles, and at the same time used his true energy to protect himself to prevent the poisonous smoke from spreading.
"Even if the candle is poisonous, it doesn't mean it's the aunt's fault. She might have been taken advantage of." Xue Feng argued bravely.
"It's not her fault, could it be you?" Lu Chen retorted.
"Hey! I'm warning you not to spit on anyone!" Xue Feng's expression changed.
Although he did not poison, he did have the idea of poisoning, and now he is inevitably feeling guilty.
"If it has nothing to do with you, then you'd better shut up and don't hinder my questioning."
Lu Chen glanced coldly, then turned his attention to the middle-aged woman: "Tell me, who wants to harm us, as long as you speak , I can spare your life."
"Sir, I don't know anything, it's none of my business..."
The middle-aged woman kept shaking her head, pretending to be innocent.
"What, do you think I'm so easy to fool?"
Lu Chen suddenly grabbed the middle-aged woman's wrist, turned her palm over, and said coldly: "Look at your own hands, there are thick layers on the fingers and the palms. The calluses are the marks on people who have been holding knives all year round. If you are just a waiter, how can you get such thick calluses?"
As soon as these words came out, the woman's expression finally changed.
She really didn't expect that Chen Lu's powers of observation were so strong. Not only did he immediately notice that the candle was poisonous, but he also easily saw through her disguise.
"The guy in front of me is obviously only in his twenties. Why is he more difficult to deal with than an old Jianghu?" The woman thought to herself.
"Let me ask you for the last time, who ordered you to assassinate us?"
Lu Chen slowly pinched the middle-aged woman with her fingers until her face turned purple and she had difficulty breathing.
A fear of death suddenly spread throughout his body.
"I'll say it, I'll tell..."
After struggling for a few seconds, the middle-aged woman finally compromised: "The person who asked me to poison you is..."
Before she could say anything, a dense burst of wind suddenly sounded outside the window.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
A large number of hidden weapons were shot in from the window.
Like a violent storm, it was a completely indiscriminate attack.
"Take cover, Be careful!"
Lu Chen's heart tightened, and he immediately let go of the middle-aged woman and turned around to block in front of Li Qingcheng.
His body was shaken, and a shield of true energy appeared out of thin air, isolating all hidden weapons.
But soon, Chen Lu realized something was wrong.
Looking back, he found that the middle-aged woman had been shot with a concealed weapon and died on the spot.
It was obvious that the hidden weapon just now was not aimed at him, but to kill the woman and silence her.
This shows that the other party is well prepared.
"It seems that tonight's power outage was caused intentionally by someone."
Shi Hao said in a solemn tone: "Fortunately, Brother Lu found out in time, otherwise our lives would be in danger." "
"We just entered the village and we didn't offend anyone. After all, Who is so cruel?" Xue Feng's face looked a little ugly.
Those hidden weapons just now were poisonous. If he hadn't been able to dodge quickly, he would have died.
"There are two possibilities, either there is someone with evil intentions and intends to kill people and get goods; or, there is someone who deliberately takes revenge."
Shi Hao glanced at Lu Chen and reminded: "Brother Lu, you have offended the strict prohibition of Youlong Sect, so you have to be careful in the future. What happened tonight might have something to do with him."
"I'll pay attention." Lu Chen nodded.
Whether it was the strict prohibition imposed by Youlong Sect or Ye Xin of Feixue Sect, he didn't take it seriously.
But if these people insist on messing around and doing all kinds of mischief, he doesn't mind killing them directly.
"Captain Xue, I have a bottle of detoxification pill here. Just in case, let all of us take one."
Li Qingcheng took out a bottle of medicine and handed it to Xue Feng.
"No problem."
Xue Feng responded and left quickly.
Sure enough, as Li Qingcheng expected, everyone who lit a candle in the room was poisoned.
Those who poisoned them, this is to kill them completely!
Night falls quickly.
In the desert village, various forces are gathering more and more. There are famous sects, some crooked ones, some world-famous martial arts masters, and some notorious villains.
