Chapter 17: The Detective and the Variables

And my facts proved that I was right in these few seconds of hesitation, and just as I came back to my senses and was about to leave overnight as planned, the footsteps of Si Si Suo were heard outside the door, accompanied by the barking of dogs in the distance

I would like to thank the remote house and the quiet night in the mountain village for making the sound of such footsteps very obvious, and although I don't know who it is, I can also tell from the feeling of danger in my heart that the person who came should not have good intentions.

The room was dark and dark, and there were no lights, which gave me a little sense of security, and I was now in the bedroom on the second floor, and I could probably observe the outside through the bedroom window, and I didn't want to be too passive.

Thinking like this, I held my breath, walked lightly to the window, quietly poked out half of my face, and began to observe the situation outside.

The night in the mountain village was very dark, because there were no street lights, and it was still a drizzly night, so it was only a deep darkness at a glance, and it took a second or two for my eyes to adjust to it, and I could barely see what was outside.

On the road leading to the village at the entrance of the village, there were several vague figures walking!

When I saw them, probably because it was too dark and the road was difficult to walk, one of them took out a small flashlight and lit it, so that I could see more clearly that there were four men.

Judging from the way they dressed, they are definitely not from this village, and it is impossible for there to be 4 young and middle-aged men in this village at the same time, almost all of them went out to work.

I have a fine bead of sweat on my forehead and my brain is already running at high speed, in this case, what should I do? But at this moment, I felt a feeling of extreme danger, and instinctively the whole person hid by the window.

Before I could catch my breath, a dazzling flashlight hit the window, and it lingered back and forth for a long time before it disappeared!

Then, in the quiet night of this mountain village, a few words of dialogue that were deliberately low, but clear, came into my ears.

"What are you doing to scare the snake like this?" It was the voice of a man scolding.

"No, I just feel like someone is watching us." Another man's voice explained, but when I heard this, the fine beads of sweat appeared more and more rapidly, merging into a large drop of sweat that rolled down my forehead.

This sentence is actually very informative, and the person who feels that he is being spied on should be a person with a strong spiritual sense, otherwise I would hide by the window and peek, ordinary people, no, even ordinary cultivators with profound skills would not be able to find out.

If there is such a person, things will happen a lot of variables, because I am also a person with a strong spiritual sense, and I understand this, and people who judge things by their feelings will generally bring a lot of variables to things.

For example, in the Lake of Ten Thousand Ghosts, the time I asked my ancestor to ask my ancestor was obviously not a Zhongmao technique, and ordinary cultivators would definitely stop casting it, but I relied on my feelings to forcibly complete that technique

As I thought quickly, the conversation continued, and it was the man who spoke first whispering.

"Your spiritual sense is very accurate, and you are valued by the organization, but this matter must not be missed, so" the man said no more.

And I was hiding on the second floor, but my mood was getting heavier and heavier, this matter is very important to the organization? That is, they are sure that I am not dead? If I lose even this layer of cover, how can I fight against a large organization?

But then, another man's interjection made me feel a little more at ease: "Team leader, this is just uncertain news, and the organization is also skeptical, in line with the idea of preferring to kill by mistake, is it necessary to say it so seriously?" ”

I let out a long breath, it turned out that the group was not sure that I was still alive, and even said that it was only slightly suspicious, and came with the attitude of wrongful killing.

"But have you ever thought about the two endings of catching that person, or that person escaping under our hands?" The man spoke again.

As soon as he said this, the man who didn't feel that he was paying much attention to this matter fell silent, and at this time, the man with very accurate spiritual sense spoke again: "Although the upper echelons of the organization have calculated that the person is dead, I feel that this news is true?" I'm really looking forward to meeting this guy and seeing if his spiritual sense is strong, or is my spiritual sense strong? ”

Damn, I couldn't help but burst out in my heart, who is interested in fighting Lingjue with him? It's just that people with strong spiritual sense are too annoying, so why should you judge that this news is true? However, I ignored that I was also a person with strong spiritual sense, so I scolded myself very simply!

"Really?" The group leader's voice was a little excited, of course I could understand him, this is a person who wants to make meritorious contributions and wants to go crazy.

It's just that this group of guys is obviously too inexperienced, compared to the 'old fritters' in the department led by Jiang Yi, the mistakes they made are quite low-level, they think that talking quietly is very secretive, but they don't want this to be a mountain village, quiet at night, and this is empty, there is a small mountain behind my house, and the sound spreads very clearly.

To ask those 'old fritters' in the department is simply to gesture and communicate.

Thinking of such a few pampered rookies, I was a little relieved, but after the team leader said 'really', the small courtyard below was already silent, I frowned and looked carefully, it turned out that they had reached the bottom of the courtyard, probably tinkering with the gate.

At this point, I already had a plan in my mind, although there were some adventures.

I waited quietly, trying to hide my figure in the shadows, carefully observing.

Time passed minute by minute, and about two minutes later, the gate opened silently under deliberate control, and four sneaky figures walked into the small courtyard.

I started to play flashlights in the yard, looking around and observing

At this time, they behaved a little more professionally, knowing that they were light and silent, and the flashlight was controlled as much as possible, trying not to affect the house

However, the yard is empty, and this house only has a small courtyard in front of the house, and behind the house is a fence, and behind the wall, there is the hill, and the place next to the house is a steep slope with a slope of 60 degrees, and there is no value for exploration outside the house.

I had been observing these people, and sure enough, they had not gained anything in the courtyard, but in less than five minutes they had gathered at the door of the house, and one of them was hunched over, presumably pounding the door of the house.

At this time, my palms were slightly sweaty, and my heartbeat was a little fast, and I couldn't fight these people openly, just because if I didn't kill them all, it would be equivalent to telling that organization that I was still alive and could only passively dodge, or in this disadvantage, it was impossible for me not to be nervous.

But I adjusted my breathing so that I could breathe softly, not too loudly, and the moment they entered the room, I reached out and unlocked the lock on the window.

I can't move too fast, too fast will make a sound, even if it's just a subtle sound, it may kill me completely, because the five senses of cultivators are particularly sensitive, and I can't compare the hearing of ordinary people with the hearing of cultivators, otherwise even if they talk in a quiet village at night, I can't hear it so clearly.

The lock of the window was silently opened by me, and at the same time I was quickly calculating in my heart, there are three rooms downstairs, with a kitchen, but because the family is not very wealthy, the room is very empty, even if you carefully probe, the speed of 4 people, the time will not exceed 5 minutes, and then they will soon go upstairs, and the room I am in now is the first room facing the corridor upstairs.

That is to say, the time left for me is 5 minutes at most, my mind is calculating this, but my movements are very fast, at the same time as opening the window lock, I have already stood up and started to push the window, the window is a very old-fashioned folio window, because it has been closed for a long time, the loose leaf should be a little rusty, I want this action not to make a sound, I am more careful, but it delays a lot of time.

I didn't push the windows all open, and after opening them to a certain extent, I leaned in and gently lowered the duffel bag.

There was also a bedroom below my room, and the old-fashioned village house, which usually had a concrete baffle in the window to keep out the rain, was now my only place to stay, the only way to escape this round of detection.

The duffel bag was gently put down by me, but the sense of crisis in my heart is getting heavier and heavier, it is said that there is still plenty of time, but after all, there is a person with excellent spiritual sense among those 4 people, which is a variable, so I didn't want to turn over the window, grabbed the narrow windowsill with both hands, and stood on the cement baffle.

Outside the window, the drizzle accompanied by the cold wind instantly enveloped my body, because the movement was too fast, I lost my balance a little, and almost fell.

This height will not hurt me, but the movement will definitely expose me, fortunately, at that time, I leaned back in time, reached out and grabbed the windowsill, so that my body was barely stable.

But at this point, there is one more thing that must be done
