Gu Ling's Decision

Feng Ming tried hard to stay calm, but he pursed his lips slightly, but Sheng Yue still noticed.

"Don't worry that I will kill you." Sheng Yue said, "If you are really Su Liang's person, you should know that I am not an enemy. Of course, Su Liang sent you back and asked you to hide your identity from me, which means that she thinks I am also an enemy."

Feng Ming shook his head, "Young Master Sheng is worrying too much. His subordinate is not the doctor Su."

"Forget it if you don't want to admit it." Sheng Yue shook his head, "This doesn't have much impact on me. You can go back and rest. We will talk about other things later."

"Yes, thank you Mr. Sheng for helping to rescue the island owner." After Feng Ming finished speaking, he lowered his head and left.

Sheng Yue stared at Feng Ming's back and tapped his finger on the table.

After leaving Sheng Yue's yard, Feng Ming strode back to his original residence on the island. It was the same as when he left last year, except that no one was cleaning it and there was dust everywhere.

It wasn't until he entered the room and closed the door that Feng Ming's face relaxed a little and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Su Liang had warned Feng Ming about what might happen when Sheng Yue saw through it just after he came back, so Feng Ming was mentally prepared.

And he knew that Sheng Yue said that to confirm that he was now loyal to Su Liang. Regardless of whether he admitted it or not, he still chose to deny it. The reason was that if he admitted that he was Su Liang's person, he would have to explain more things in front of Sheng Yue. Things, such as his loyalty to Su Liang, and what Su Liang asked him to do back on the island. Although Sheng Yue could guess most of them, his guesses were not the same as the facts.

Although Su Liang said that Sheng Yue would not kill Feng Ming even if he found out that he was a craftsman, but just now, when Sheng Yue was looking at him for interrogation, Feng Ming was still sweating on his back because of the oppression given by Sheng Yue. Too strong.

The reason why Su Liang believed that Sheng Yue would not kill Feng Ming was because Sheng Yue obviously still needed to cooperate with Su Liang and Gu Ling to achieve his goal, which required Feng Ming to be alive to show his sincerity.

The first hurdle of returning to the island was passed, but Feng Ming didn't really relax. The task Su Liang gave him was to keep an eye on Sheng Yue, and he was exposed on the first day he came back. In this way, what Sheng Yue let him see next might be a deliberate attempt to mislead him, which would make his task more difficult. higher.

…

After a few days, Mo Yan did not see Feng Ming again, and Sheng Yue did not trouble Feng Ming. He just arranged for him to be in charge of patrols on the coast. This job is a job with real power and considerable power. It can dispatch all the masters under the elders on the island. After what happened on New Year's Eve, no one dared to look for bad luck again.

Therefore, in the eyes of everyone on Xingluo Island, Sheng Yue is Mo Yan's confidant, and Feng Ming is Sheng Yue's confidant. However, Feng Ming knew very well that this was not the case.

That night, Feng Ming personally led a young master to patrol the beach. Although Mo Yan and Su Liang had agreed to meet on the first day of March, they were still on guard against anyone coming to attack Xingluo Island.

This young man’s name is Xie Jun. He also came to the island in the same year as Feng Ming. They had a good relationship at first. However, because Xie Jun originally chose to side with the He family and was willing to be bossed around by He Peng, he became estranged from Feng Ming and Zhu Zan. .

"Nothing happened, let's go." Feng Ming said, patting Xie Jun's shoulder.

Xie Jun seemed to be frightened, and the lantern in his hand shook violently.

Feng Ming felt something was wrong, "I've wanted to ask you for a long time. When I came back this time, I felt that you were always surprised. Is it because something happened to the He family? There were so many people close to the He family on this island, no? Everything is fine, even if the island owner wants to liquidate it, it won’t be your fault.”

Xie Jun shook his head, "I'm fine."

Feng Ming looked around, led Xie Jun in another direction, and said in a low voice, "You know me. If you really have something wrong, just tell me. We are brothers, if I can help, I I will definitely help you.”

Xie Jun looked up at Feng Ming and asked, "Someone said that you killed Zhu Zan."

Feng Ming laughed when he heard it, "You believe it? Why should I kill him? Maybe you can see him again when you leave the island in the future. We all have no father or mother, so it is fate that we can get together."

"Is he really still alive?" Xie Jun asked.

Feng Ming nodded, "I swear, he is alive, he just doesn't want to come back."

Xie Jun frowned, "I can't figure it out, why do you want to come back? You are the smartest among us. Zhu Zan knows that this is a place of right and wrong, and it will not end well if you come back. Why do you..."

Feng Ming glanced around, and the two of them walked to an open place on the beach where no one could eavesdrop. He sighed and said, "I also thought about not coming back, otherwise I wouldn't have stayed out for so long. But I finally came back. Because there is no home for me in the vastness of the world, I really don’t know where to go.”

After finishing his words, without giving Xie Jun a chance to ask further questions, Feng Ming looked at him intently, "What happened on the island before I came back? It's just that the He Wei family fell. You weren't all scared like this, were you?"

Feng Ming discovered on the day he came back that something was wrong with the atmosphere on the island. Ordinarily, after He Wei died, the other elders should be more eager to stand out, but those who were always arrogant in the past are now like quails, shrinking their heads. Feng Ming always felt that it was not just because the entire He family was executed. And based on the foundation of the He family, Feng Ming originally thought that it was very likely that He Wei would lead other people on the island to rebel. How did Mo Yan manage to kill all the He family in one day? The He family is not the only one who is obviously rebellious.

"Don't ask, it's a good thing you don't know. You're lucky, now Master Sheng thinks highly of you." Xie Jun seemed to remember something terrible and shook his head repeatedly.

Feng Ming pressed Xie Jun's shoulders, "If it's not a secret you know alone, why can't you tell me? I don't know anything, I'm panicking, and I can't help you."

Xie Jun hesitated, "If something happens, will you really help me?"

Feng Ming nodded seriously, "Zhu Zan hasn't come back, and now you are my best brother on the island." For the sake of caution, he didn't ask anything in the past few days, and only arranged for Xie Jun to patrol with him today.

Xie Jun took a deep breath and subconsciously looked behind him to make sure there was no one around before he spoke, "Something big happened on New Year's Eve. If I tell you, you might think I'm talking nonsense."

Feng Ming shook his head, "Just tell me, I believe you."

"That day, Master Sheng came back from outside, and the master learned that the divine doctor Su was his granddaughter. He Wei had deliberately concealed it before, and he was furious and cut off one of He Wei's ears as punishment. He Wei summoned the people on the island to rebel that night." Xie Jun's voice was low, "Everyone followed him at the time, except Master Sheng, but I couldn't say anything in front of Master Sheng, so I could only follow He Peng to the forbidden area to force the palace."

Feng Ming narrowed his eyes slightly. Except for Sheng Yue, all the other masters on the island rebelled? How was it suppressed by Mo Yan? And the means must be extraordinary...

"Then, we..." Xie Jun licked his lips, which was a manifestation of his nervousness, "We were all captured by the island owner."

Feng Ming frowned, "The island owner captured so many of you alone? Did he use poison?"

Xie Jun shook his head, "No... No, the island owner never uses poison, he uses that..." He looked back again, then leaned close to Feng Ming's ear and said, "Magic weapon."

These two words are not unfamiliar to Feng Ming. The masters on the island all know that Mo Yan has a powerful magic weapon, but they don't know what it is or what's so powerful about it. Feng Ming accidentally heard that the magic weapon can hold a lot of things.

But when Xie Jun said that Mo Yan could move his fingers to make them disappear and be locked in the magic weapon, he was still shocked, "Can living people be locked in?"

Xie Jun nodded, "Many people. The island owner is invincible, he is a god, only a god can do such a thing."

When saying this, Feng Ming saw that Xie Jun's eyes were still a bit pious in the horror.

People are always afraid of the unknown, and things that they have seen with their own eyes but cannot understand will make people more afraid.

Feng Ming also couldn't understand it. If someone had told him this kind of thing before, he would have thought it was nonsense and impossible. But now the atmosphere on the island and Xie Jun's personal experience made Feng Ming realize that this was true.

"Everyone on the island knows about this except me?" Feng Ming calmed down his shock and asked Xie Jun.

Xie Jun nodded, "Mr. Sheng was not taken to that place that time, but one night later, he asked me to tell him what it was like inside... I dare not not say it."

"You did the right thing." Feng Ming patted Xie Jun's shoulder again, "Even if you don't say this kind of thing, Mr. Sheng will ask someone else."

As they talked, the two walked back.

"I really don't know what the island owner wants to do. Since he knows that Dr. Su is his granddaughter, he will recognize Dr. Su next, right?" Xie Jun said.

Feng Ming sighed, "Who knows?" But at this moment, he only thought of one thing in his mind. Su Liang probably didn't know that Mo Yan's magic weapon could take living people in and release them, because the people on the island only knew about it on New Year's Eve. There was no news before, and no one who knew about it left the island after that.

Feng Ming felt that he needed to find a way to inform Su Liang of the news as soon as possible, otherwise, what if Mo Yan used that trick to capture Su Liang and Gu Ling directly when they met on the first day of March, and then forced them to bow their heads? After all, normal people couldn't imagine that such a thing would happen...

After separating from Xie Jun, Feng Ming returned to his residence, and it was almost midnight.

The moonlight shone in through the window, and he closed the door, and sat down at the table without turning on the light, frowning and thinking, and felt that the matter was more and more important, but he had no companions now. He could either escape from the island and inform Su Liang, or wait until the first day of March when they met at sea, and then find a way to inform Su Liang, but if it was the latter, he might not be qualified to go with Mo Yan.

"Thinking about how to reveal the news to Su Liang?"

The voice coming from not far away made Feng Ming terrified. He stood up subconsciously and saw a person walking out of the shadows. Who else could it be but Sheng Yue?

"Mr. Sheng is looking for me?" Feng Ming lowered his eyes and spoke respectfully. At this moment, he suspected that perhaps Sheng Yue knew about his conversation with Xie Jun. Xie Jun didn't tell on him, and Sheng Yue didn't eavesdrop. He might have only guessed to think of these. His mind has always been terrible.

"I gave you a chance last time, but you didn't want it." Sheng Yue approached Feng Ming, "I'll give you another chance tonight and admit that you are Su Liang's man."

Feng Ming shook his head firmly, "I really have nothing to do with that Su Shen Doctor. I talked to Xie Jun about some things tonight, but because the atmosphere on the island was very strange, I didn't understand and wanted to know why."

Sheng Yue looked at Feng Ming and suddenly said something inexplicable, as if talking to himself, "Even if you swear allegiance to me, I don't believe it. In this world, I only believe in myself."

Feng Ming saw Sheng Yue's eyes, which were extremely cold, like the ice and snow in the north in winter, without any temperature. He subconsciously wanted to run, but it was too late.

Sheng Yue waved his hand, Feng Ming's body stiffened and he lost consciousness. Before he fainted, he was thinking that Sheng Yue actually used poison, and he had obviously been targeting him for a long time. This just showed that the matter was really important to Su Liang, which made Sheng Yue so afraid...

The next day, Xie Jun found that Feng Ming was missing, and he didn't dare to ask, and then he was arranged by Sheng Yue to take over Feng Ming's original position.

Mo Yan didn't pay attention to Feng Ming, but the two old men beside him told him that there was one less person on the island.

So, when Mo Yan played chess with Sheng Yue again, he asked.

Sheng Yue replied calmly, "The person is not dead, in the dungeon."

Mo Yan frowned, "Why?"

"He is a spy sent by Su Liang." Sheng Yue said.

Mo Yan paused with his hand holding the chess piece, "How did you know?"

"Last night he asked Xie Jun about the master's magic weapon, and then tried to escape to inform the news." Sheng Yue said.

Mo Yan's face darkened, "No wonder he came back so late."

"After being caught by me, he tried to persuade me to cooperate with him." Sheng Yue said, "When the persuasion failed, he threatened to go to the master and say that I had colluded with Su Liang for a long time. So I locked him up in the dungeon."

Mo Yan snorted coldly, "My granddaughter really has no sincerity to make peace."

"This is normal. After all, so many things happened before. They know the master's intentions and will naturally be on guard." Sheng Yue said.

"Interrogate him carefully to see what Feng Ming's purpose is in returning to the island and whether he can get any useful information." Mo Yan explained that he did not intend to bring Feng Ming here.

So, after Sheng Yue left the forbidden area, he went to the dungeon.

Feng Ming had woken up and did not shout to report Sheng Yue. He was very quiet. He knew that if he acted rashly, Sheng Yue might really kill him.

Sheng Yue waved his hand and asked everyone else to leave. Only he and Feng Ming were left in the dungeon.

"If you confess something useful, you will feel better." Sheng Yue said calmly, "As long as the master doesn't ask for your life, I won't kill you."

Feng Ming shook his head, "It's all a misunderstanding. Master Sheng thinks too highly of me. I'm not a spy."

Sheng Yue looked at Feng Ming with deep eyes, "So loyal to her? I can understand people like you. But that matter, you really can't let her know, you shouldn't ask about it."

Seeing Sheng Yue turn around and leave, Feng Ming asked, "What is Master Sheng's purpose?"

Sheng Yue ignored him and disappeared from Feng Ming's sight.

...

Beijing.

In the blink of an eye, it was late February, and the things that had not been settled before were brought up again.

"We won't show up." Gu Ling had already thought about it, "Let Qiu Jing pretend to be me. If something happens, I will save him."
