Chapter 192: Asking for the Ghost's Lair
Feng Wuhen stared at him and asked, "Yu Xingzhou, you should know where the bases of Baiguimen are, right?"
Old Man Xuanji said without hesitation: "Yes, I know. I made the hidden formations of each base of the Hundred Ghosts Sect alone, so I naturally know their locations."
Hearing this, Feng Wuhen couldn't help but feel a little happy, but his expression remained calm as he said, "Then tell us the specific locations of the bases in the Hundred Ghosts Gate."
When Old Man Xuanji heard this, he shook his head gently, and refused in a firm and resolute tone, "No, I can't say that."
When Feng Wuhen heard his refusal, he suppressed his anger and continued in a low voice, "Tell us, we will give you a lot, how much do you want?"
After saying this, Old Man Xuanji looked into the distance with a confused look on his face, and froze for a moment, as if he was trying to recall something. However, his mind was blank, as if he had lost that memory.
Then, his vision became more blurred, revealing a trace of pain and confusion. He slowly opened his mouth and told Feng Wuhen everything he knew.
Feng Wuhen listened with bated breath; every word was like thunder in his ears, causing huge waves in his heart.
He was shocked to find that several of the bases of the Hundred Ghosts Sect were located near the imperial city, which made him feel extremely shocked.
I don’t know who the leader of the Hundred Ghosts Sect is. He actually built the base of an underworld organization on a hill near the imperial city.
Only a few bases are located in the more affluent towns in Donglin? What is their purpose in doing so?
Questions popped up in his mind one after another, and he realized that the seriousness of the matter was far beyond his imagination.
Then, Feng Wuhen remembered something and asked, "Do you know who the leader of the Hundred Ghosts Sect is?"
Old Man Xuanji shook his head and said truthfully: "I don't know. I have never seen his true face."
Feng Wuhen was a little disappointed when he heard this, "Momo, how long will the effect of this truth pill last?"
Jiang Yimo used her mind to probe into the space, glanced at the alarm clock in the bedroom, and said calmly: "The effect of the medicine only lasts for an incense stick of time (about half an hour). There are still two or three minutes left. Your Majesty, if you want to ask anything else, you must ask it quickly."
As soon as these words came out, Feng Wuhen's eyes became sharp. He stared at Old Man Xuanji closely and asked, "Yu Xingzhou, do you know who planted the corpse poison in Xiaokai? Is there any antidote for this kind of corpse poison in the Hundred Ghosts Sect?"
After hearing this, old man Xuanji's face turned pale and he seemed to be trying hard to recall something.
His eyes revealed a trace of confusion and fear, and he slowly said: "Xiao Kai? Is he the kid that Dulang deliberately let escape? The kid was poisoned... by someone ten years ago, and I heard... the kid was poisoned by the sect leader himself..."
At this point, old man Xuanji's body trembled violently a few times, and his voice became a little trembling.
His eyes were full of alertness, as if he suddenly realized something.
He raised his head and glanced at Feng Wuhen and Jiang Yimo, the fear in his eyes becoming more and more obvious.
Feng Wuhen and Jiang Yimo stared at old man Xuanji, their expressions serious and cold.
Jiang Yimo sneered and raised her eyebrows and said, "We have done what we should do, and we have also done what we shouldn't do. But you can rest assured that you have not lost your virginity."
There was a hint of sarcasm and disdain in her voice.
After hearing these words, old man Xuanji's face became even paler, and his lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
Just now, Feng Wuhen calmly fed him a pill. In an instant, he felt dizzy and his consciousness gradually blurred, as if he was swallowed by an invisible force, and his mind became blank.
After that, he completely lost control of his words and actions. As for what he said and did, he couldn't remember it at all.
Looking at the expressions of Feng Wuhen, Jiang Yimo and others, the anger in Old Man Xuanji's heart erupted like a volcano.
He clenched his fists tightly, his body trembling slightly with anger, and roared: "How can you be so shameless!"
His voice was full of despair and unwillingness, which was the grief and anger after being plotted against.
However, Jiang Yimo and Feng Wuhen remained indifferent to the old man Xuanji's roar, as if they had already expected such a scene.
The next second, Jiang Yimo turned her head to look at Feng Wuhen, a hint of imperceptible pride flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "Your Highness, we have asked all the questions we should ask, let's go."
Feng Wuhen agreed with Jiang Yimo's proposal. He nodded slightly, his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing an elusive smile.
Afterwards, Shadow and Leng Mei acted quickly. They silently closed the cell door and followed Jiang Yimo and Feng Wuhen like ghosts, leaving the cell quietly as if nothing had happened.
Old man Xuanji stared at their departing backs with an angry look on his face, and suddenly collapsed to the ground. His mind was still trying hard to recall what had happened after he took the green pill.
But he tried to recall for a long time but couldn't remember anything.
……
Here, after Feng Wuhen and Jiang Yimo left, several people looked solemn and hurried to Feng Wuhen's study. They sat down one by one, with a hint of worry in their eyes.
Jiang Yimo was the first to break the silence, and said in a firm tone: "Your Highness, since we already know the locations of several bases of the Hundred Ghosts Sect, why don't we take advantage of their unpreparedness and quietly gather troops to destroy their bases and catch them off guard!"
There was a hint of urgency in her voice, as if she was filled with resentment towards her enemy.
Feng Wuhen nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with Jiang Yimo's idea.
His eyes were deep and firm, and he said slowly: "This king also has this idea, but each base of the Hundred Ghosts Gate is guarded by a formation. If we want to break the formations one by one, it will probably take some time.
Therefore, it is not realistic for us to destroy multiple bases at the same time. The best strategy is to defeat them one by one. This will also avoid alerting the enemy and ensure that nothing goes wrong."
His words revealed a hint of helplessness, but also showed his calmness and wisdom.
Although Jiang Yimo understood what Feng Wuhen said, she preferred to make a quick decision to avoid any more troubles...
So, she asked softly, "Then how should we defeat them one by one?"
Hearing this, Feng Wuhen looked at her and said, "Momo, let's wipe out the headquarters of the Hundred Ghosts Sect first."
