Chapter 274 All Missing
Chapter 274 All Missing
Feeling the fatal crisis, Lin Congyun immediately loosened the whip in his hand and dodged the attack of the sharp arrow with a flash of his body.
However, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, several more sharp arrows were shot out from the darkness, each one aimed at her vital points.
Lin Congyun was startled and dodged quickly, while waving the whip with both hands quickly to knock down the arrows one by one.
However, the archers in the dark did not seem to intend to give up. Wave after wave of sharp arrows poured down like a rainstorm, leaving Lin Congyun with no chance to fight back.
This can't go on like this!
Lin Congyun knew that he had to find the archer in the dark as soon as possible, otherwise he would be killed here sooner or later.
Thinking of this, she suddenly stopped, pushed the ground hard with her feet, and rushed in one direction.
At the same time, the whip in her hand seemed to have eyes and went straight to the place where the archer was hiding in the dark.
"what!"
With a scream, a man in black fell out from the darkness, with Lin Congyun's whip stuck in his chest!
After dealing with the archers in the dark, Lin Congyun immediately turned around and looked at the leader.
However, what she didn't expect was that the leader who was supposed to be subdued by her was nowhere to be seen!
"Damn it!"
Looking at the empty venue, Lin Congyun couldn't help but curse.
She never thought that she would let the leader run away!
Her men had not noticed this just now, and all their attention was focused on the archers in the dark.
"Second Prince, I'm sorry. It was our negligence."
Seeing Lin Congyun's angry face, his men immediately knelt on one knee with guilty looks on their faces.
"never mind."
Lin Congyun waved his hand and said, "It's not your fault. I was careless."
As she spoke, she looked up in the direction where the leader disappeared, with a cold light flashing in her eyes.
Then, Lin Congyun ordered everyone to check the village to see if there were any survivors or clues.
"Search carefully and don't miss any clues." Lin Congyun ordered.
The men spread out and carefully searched every corner that might hide secrets.
After a while, Lin Congyun's men found Feng Lieyang who had fainted in a simple thatched hut.
Feng Lieyang was lying in a corner of the room, his face pale and beads of sweat on his forehead.
Lin Congyun rushed over after hearing the news and carefully checked Feng Lieyang's injuries. He found that he was just unconscious and was not seriously injured. He was slightly relieved.
"Take him back and take good care of him." Lin Congyun whispered to his men beside him. Fortunately, he was fine.
But everyone who came with him died.
When he thought of this, Lin Congyun couldn't help but frown, his heart full of doubts.
Who are these people?
Her mind was full of questions, but no one could answer them for her, and she didn't know the identity of the leader who ran away.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Congyun decided to return home first and ask about other matters after he woke up.
Lin Congyun took Feng Lieyang back to his own residence and arranged for someone to take good care of him.
After some diagnosis and treatment, Feng Lieyang woke up the next day.
"You're awake." Lin Congyun looked at Feng Lieyang lying on the bed with a smile on his face, "How do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"
"I'm fine." Feng Lieyang shook his head, "Thank you for your concern, Second Prince."
"I'm glad you're okay." Lin Congyun nodded. "Do you know who are the people in that village?"
Feng Lieyang shook his head again and recounted his experience last night.
After listening to this, Lin Congyun fell into deep thought. Those people were so skilled, yet they pretended to be farmers in a small village. It must be something more than ordinary people.
"Second Prince, could those people be the Third Prince's men?" Feng Lieyang looked at Lin Congyun with a worried look on his face.
"We can't rule out this possibility." Lin Congyun nodded slightly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, "However, it is also possible that they are from other forces."
"Other forces?" Feng Lieyang was stunned. "The Second Prince is referring to..."
"Now the fourth prince has become a prisoner, and the dog... and my father has other princes. Except for the youngest seventh prince, the position of the crown prince is still uncertain. Anyone may be eyeing that position."
Lin Congyun almost said the word "dog emperor", but fortunately she reacted quickly and changed her words in time.
"I understand." Feng Lieyang nodded, "Second Prince, what should we do now?"
"Find out the identities of those people first." Lin Congyun pondered for a moment and slowly said, "Send someone to investigate secretly to see if there are any clues."
"Yes, Second Prince." Feng Lieyang agreed immediately.
Lin Congyun gave a few more instructions and then turned and left Feng Lieyang's room.
In the following days, Lin Congyun stayed in the mansion and did not go out.
That day, Feng Lieyang came back from outside in a hurry, "Second Prince, something bad has happened."
Lin Congyun, who was reading the letter from Fang Deyong, immediately looked up at Feng Lieyang after hearing his words, "What's the matter? Why are you so flustered?"
"Second Prince, all the people we sent out to investigate are missing." Feng Lieyang's face was full of anxiety.
"What?" Lin Congyun stood up suddenly. "They are all missing? What happened?"
"I don't know either." Feng Lieyang shook his head. "We have been very careful, but we didn't expect an accident to happen."
Lin Congyun frowned, his heart full of doubts.
Could it be that those people discovered their investigation?
But, they were obviously very careful, how could they be discovered?
"Second Prince, what should we do now?" Feng Lieyang looked at the silent Lin Congyun and couldn't help but ask.
"Don't be anxious yet." Lin Congyun waved his hand, "Let me think about it."
She paced back and forth in the room, thinking about a solution.
Since those people were able to discover the people they sent out to investigate, it showed that they were quite powerful, and it was very likely that they had been secretly keeping an eye on them.
Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Lin Congyun's eyes.
In that case, she will lure the snake out of its hole!
"Feng Lieyang." Lin Congyun suddenly said, "You go and make the arrangements. Let's do this..."
Under Lin Congyun's instructions, Feng Lieyang quickly arranged everything.
That night, Lin Congyun and his men quietly left the mansion and came to a remote place outside the city.
She wanted to see if those people would take the bait!
However, what Lin Congyun did not expect was that no one came after they waited all night.
Just when Lin Congyun thought her plan had failed, suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps came into her ears.
