n“There is something wrong.”

nLin Fan stared at the dry well and was lost in thought.

nWhy did Wei Xiong take the initiative to enter the dry well?

nBased on the previous situation.

nIf Wei Xiong wanted to get in the dry well safely, he should have asked Lin Fan to lead the way since Lin Fan knew the details about the dry well from Dr. Sun.

nBut Wei Xiong sounded fine going in there all by himself.

nLin Fan thought of the plots that often occurred in film and tv-dramas, the traitors will always find ways to cover up the truth.

n“This is weird.”

nLin Fan muttered.

n“What’s wrong?” Wang Zhou heard Lin Fan muttered and didn’t know what to say.

nHe thought about whether he should tell Wang Zhou or not.

n“Sir, did you remember what Wei Xiong said when you talk to him?” Lin Fan said.

nWang Zhou was shocked and said in a hurry, “There might be a danger?”

n“No, Wei Xiong will return safely.” Lin Fan said.

nHe foresaw two possible outcomes.

nThe first was Wei Xiong came up safely and reported that the situation was not dangerous, and everyone could safely enter the dry well, but Lin Fan could not find important clues.

nThe other was that something suddenly happened. For example, an explosion in the dry well. Wei Xiong came out and reported the situation inside.

n“That’s good, as long as people he is safe, the rest are not important.” Wang Zhou replied.

nHe didn’t get what Lin Fan was trying to point out.

nLin Fan doubted Wang Zhou’s intelligence.

nSuddenly.

nSomeone shouted.

n“Something happens! Smoke comes out of the dry well, and Wei Xiong is still inside.”

nLin Fan guessed Wei Xiong was afraid of being busted, so he burned down all the evidence.

nLin Fan was very calm.

nLin Fan thought maybe Wei Xiong brought a certain book with him. Because that book would be useful for him to threaten someone else.

n“Wei Xiong, hurry up!” Wang Zhou shouted into the dry well.

nThe smoke was very dense, and it was difficult for an average person to breathe. It was impossible to see clearly what was inside the well.

nSuddenly.

nA figure came out from the dry well, it was Wei Xiong covered with ashes.

n“Sir, I’m sorry. I’m stepped on a trap in the dry chamber and caused a fire. I wanted to take those evidence before the fire spreads, but I didn’t expect the fire was too big, I’m sorry… “

nWei Xiong was sad, helpless, and deeply regretted his actions.

nLin Fan looked at Wei Xiong’s expression. If he hadn’t watched a few hundred films and tv-dramas, he would have been deceived by that guy. Just look at that expression.

nThat man was like a professional actor.

n“It’s okay, it’s enough to see you come back safely.” Wang Zhou patted Wei Xiong’s shoulder, “What did you find inside?”

nWei Xiong said, “Sir, there is a secret room at the end of the passage, where there are so many oil lamps, and I did not care about it at that time, but a letter on the table attracted my attention. Then the oil lamp exploded, and after a while, the room was engulfed with fire. I wanted to take the letter away, but the fire was too big. The letter was already burned in a blink of an eye.”

n“…” Wang Zhou sighed.

n“Well, if the clue is gone, we can continue to investigate the dry well. It’s good enough to see you are still alive. Hurry up and see the doctor.”

n“Yes, sir.” Wei Xiong responded, and when he was about to leave, he stared at Lin Fan’s eyes.

nLin Fan’s eyes made Wei Xiong felt awkward.

nWei Xiong was a cunning person in Lin Fan’s eyes.

nLin Fan was sure Wei Xiong was the one who burned down the passage, and there was no letter at all, only books.

nLin Fan observed Wei Xiong when he came out from the dry well, Lin Fan didn’t see him bringing anything when he came out.

nLin Fan thought Wei Xiong already memorized the content inside of it, and he burned it down after that.

nIf Wei Xiong knew what Lin Fan was thinking about him, he would definitely try to kill Lin Fan.

nNobody has actually seen the passage with their own eyes, how could they be so sure about Wei Xiong’s statement?

n“Master, do you know Lu Nian?” Lin Fan asked.

nWang Zhou was puzzled. He didn’t know the name. He shook his head. “I don’t know, what’s wrong?”

n“In the pavilion today, that person bribed me with 12,000 silver money, he told me to release Dr. Sun, and then I killed him in a fight. I take that 12,000 silver money to dig about the relationship between them and told Dr. Sun he will be released, I found Dr. Sun knew what the important secret in that dry well is.”

nLin Fan was an open-minded person who would say that he accepted bribes without trying to hide the fact at all.

nHis intention was clear.

nIt was to remind Wang Zhou that the enemy could bribe someone with such a huge amount of money, and not everyone could resist the bribery like Lin Fan did.

n“I will order my men to investigate Lu Nian’s identity. Okay, wrap it up.” Wang Zhou said.

nLin Fan was not stupid in Wang Zhou’s eyes.

nBut Lin Fan was a bit frustrated that Wang Zhou hasn’t realized anything from what he said.

nWhen he came to that world, he knew there was cultivation there, and the goal was definitely to become immortal.

nLin Fan had to do everything step by step, he must not rush things.

nLin Fan left and wanted to follow Wei Xiong.

nBut he thought about that again.

nIn the current situation, Wei Xiong should be cautious, and he will never expose anything carelessly.

nSo Lin Fan decided to find some new technique.

nIt was very difficult to fight the enemy with just one technique.

nHunter Guild, Library.

n“You can find the technique you want here, but I suggest it’s the best thing is not to be greedy.” Li Zhiyong said, he also had a good opinion of Lin Fan, after all, Lin Fan was his life-saver.

n“Thank you.” Lin Fan responded and then walked inside.

n“Wait.” Li Zhiyong stopped him.

nLin Fan looked back, wondering why Li Zhiyong stopped him.

nLi Zhiyong pondered for a moment and said, “You have saved my life, this is my token of gratitude. I hope that you will find something good. And I warned you not to learn something randomly.”

n“Will there be a consequence if I do?” Lin Fan asked.

nLi Zhiyong laughed and stopped talking.

n“Just go in and choose the technique you want. Finding the right one is the best.”
