I survive in the weird Liaozhai

Chapter 148 Questioning

The long sword in her hand was shattered by the huge force, and Sun Xiaodie's figure turned several times in the air. The moment her feet landed on the ground, she quickly retreated backwards, trying to stay away from the young man in the moon-white robe.

What was that blue light just now? The power it carried was so amazing that the sword in her hand was shattered as soon as it touched her, and her wrist is still aching until now.

"Can you answer my question now?"

Sun Xiaodie, who was the target of the attack, did not see the blue light clearly, but Lu Kai, who was a bystander, saw it clearly.

That should be a spear, an extremely fast spear.

If the spear had not paused for a moment when colliding with the sword in Sun Xiaodie's hand, he would not have been able to see it clearly.

So this is a big guy who has special skills or has achieved great success in spiritual practice.

With a helpless smile on his face, Lu Kai couldn't help but secretly sigh at his bad luck.

"Senior, I am just born with a different perception ability than ordinary people, so I can find out that someone is following me."

"Perception?"

After hesitating for a moment, a hint of light blue flashed in Gu Nian'an's gold and silver pupils, and then he suddenly took a step forward.

Lu Kai, who was bowing, suddenly felt a hidden but extremely terrifying murderous intent approaching him, as if a huge mouth of the abyss had opened and could swallow him up at any time without leaving anything behind.

"Kang Dang"

The long knife fell to the ground and his face turned pale immediately. He could not hold on for a moment. Lu Kai could no longer maintain his body and fell directly to the ground, gasping for breath.

Sun Xiaodie, who was standing nearby, saw this and hurried forward and asked anxiously, "Lu Kai, what's wrong with you?"

He could not hear any sound from the outside world, let alone the passage of time. At this moment, Lu Kai only felt that his whole body was wrapped by a black airflow, which made it difficult for him to breathe.

"Lu Kai, Lu Kai, what's wrong with you?"

No matter how she asked and shook, she didn't get any response. At this time, Sun Xiaodie also reacted. It seemed that they had encountered a truly terrifying person today.

Without any hesitation, Sun Xiaodie turned around and knelt in the direction of Gu Nian'an and said, "Senior, we have no intention of offending you. Please show some mercy."

Putting away the murderous intent in his body, Gu Nian'an looked with interest at the man in black who was kneeling on the ground and gasping for breath.

Well, the guy just now didn't lie. His perception ability is indeed different from that of ordinary people.

The murderous intent he had just emitted should have been very subtle, and even the woman standing next to him did not notice it at all, but he felt it very clearly.

However, Gu Nian'an felt that this person's ability was a little too useless.

There is no denying that this extraordinary perception is definitely a magical skill for escaping and saving lives when dealing with general dangers.

But once the crisis exceeds his own threshold, this person will be almost useless, and he probably won't even have the most basic ability to resist.

After Gu Nian'an put away his murderous intent, Lu Kai lay on the ground gasping for breath. It was not until several minutes later that his eyes gradually regained focus.

"Lu Kai, are you okay?"

Noticing that her companion's trembling had stopped, Sun Xiaodie quickly helped him up from the ground.

After he stood firm, Lu Kai gently pushed away Sun Xiaodie's support and then clasped his hands and said, "Senior, you deliberately set up a trap to lure us out. I think you should know our identities. Since you know our identities, you should also know that people like us cannot reveal many things to the outside world."

Oh, really? He really didn't know about these things, but he could imagine that the secret organizations of the imperial court must involve a lot of secrets, so their confidentiality work should be very strict.

But it doesn't matter. He wants to see whether these two people are tough in words or his methods are more ruthless.

"laugh"

There was a flash of lightning, and before the two could react they felt a slight blow on the back of their necks.

Suddenly, everything went dark, my body started to go numb, and then I collapsed to the ground.

At the last moment of his consciousness, Lu Kai only vaguely saw a pair of sharp heterochromatic pupils, which made him feel a little cold all over.

It was not known how long it had passed, but when Lu Kai regained consciousness, he only felt his body numb and his vision was blurred.

"you're awake."

In a daze, Lu Kai shook his head gently to keep himself awake.

When his mind became a little clearer, he found that he was now in a dense forest. In the forest, there was a bonfire burning. Through the firelight, he saw again the figure that made him tremble.

Lu Kai leaned against the tree trunk and did not choose to stand up. He clasped his hands and said, "Senior, if you have any questions, please ask. If I can tell you, I will not hide anything."

"Where is Qi Heng, the owner of the coffin shop? What happened to the Du family in Nanlong County, Jinzhou? What is your purpose in looking for them?"

Alas! Hearing the question from the young man beside the fire, Lu Kai sighed silently in his heart. He knew that this was most likely the case.

But how could he dare to disclose information related to the mission to others at will?

As for just telling a few lies to deal with it, this unrealistic idea only appeared for a moment and was immediately ignored by him.

He had no idea how much the young man by the fire knew about the matter. If there was a mistake in the information he provided, there would be no room for maneuver.

Besides…～

He looked up at the boy sitting by the fire.

He suspected that this person might be one of those old monsters in the legend who had achieved rejuvenation through spiritual practice. Such a person must have many mysterious tricks. Lying to such a person would be tantamount to seeking death.

After sorting out his thoughts, Lu Kai smiled and said, "Senior, these are just trivial matters. Why don't you let my companion go first? I will answer all your questions one by one."

Alas! Gu Nian'an sighed softly after hearing the answer from the man in black. He communicated with sincerity, but why did someone always fail to see the situation clearly?

"laugh"

A flash of cold silver light pierced through the black-clothed man's shoulder and nailed him to the tree trunk behind him.

Enduring the piercing pain, Lu Kai looked down at the sword that pierced his shoulder, then forced a smile on his face and said:

"Senior, if you won't agree to even such a small request, how can I be sure that you will let us go even if I tell you the truth?"

"I am the meat and others are the butchers. I thought you would understand this principle.

What you should do now is to answer my questions truthfully instead of bargaining with me here."

Of course he understands this truth, but...~ Alas, I really can't say it. My own life is important, but the safety of my family should be above my own life.

Gu Nian'an looked at the determined eyes of the young man in black and couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart. It seemed that the friendly communication was about to end here, so he would need to use some tricks next.
