After Fangzheng told him everything, Linlong finally understood why he couldn't find the Face Hunting Beast. It turned out that things were just as he had guessed. The Face Hunting Beast had been locked in a cave by Fang Feiyang.
The reason why the Face Hunting Beast was locked up was that Fang Feiyang had recently fed the Face Hunting Beast some fierce beast meat and even their inner cores.
Since these inner cores and fierce beast meat contained a lot of Qi, the Face Hunting Beast had to stop eating and digest the energy after taking it. This digestion usually took five to six days.
In order to prevent accidents, Fang Feiyang had to limit its range of activities.
Fang Feiyang's approach was naturally to let the Face Hunting Beast grow up quickly. There was nothing wrong with this method. The only drawback was that the price was too high. After all, the fierce beast meat and inner core were not so easy to get.
Since Fang Feiyang was willing to pay such a high price, it showed that he was eager to get the Face Hunting Beast's inner core as soon as possible. This situation also showed that he had found the alchemist who refined the elixir.
In his previous life, Lin Long did not know when Fang Feiyang took the inner core of the Face Hunting Beast. He only learned from others that there used to be such a ferocious beast in Fang Feiyang's Martial Art Mountain.
In addition to knowing the place where the Face Hunting Beast was locked up, Linlong also learned from Fang Zheng that the Fang family had four people guarding the cave. As for the patriarch, Fang Feiyang, he had been staying in the small stone house not far from the cave.
The situation was very bad. Linlong wanted to kill the Face Hunting Beast secretly and then take its inner core. Now it seemed that this idea was impossible.
After thinking for a while, Linlong made the most feasible plan at present.
…
It could be said to be a valley. The cave where the Face Hunting Beast was locked was under one side of the mountain wall. Because there were many rocks and trees near the cave entrance, it looked very hidden.
Not far from the cave, which was a higher terrain in the center of the valley, Fang Feiyang's stone house was here. It could be said that he could hear any major movements in the cave.
Between these two places was a large area of rocks. If outsiders wanted to enter the cave, they had to pass through these rocks. There were almost no trees on these rocks. In other words, once outsiders entered this place, they would be easily discovered by Fang Feiyang.
Even so, Fang Feiyang still asked four Martial Masters of the Fang Clan to guard this place. Even someone as powerful as Lin Qingshan would find it difficult to enter the cave without anyone noticing.
It was even more difficult to kill the Face Hunting Beast and take away its inner dan because the Face Hunting Beast wouldn't sit still. If he couldn't kill it in one blow, the battle with it would immediately attract Fang Feiyang's attention.
It could be said that this area was practically impregnable to Fang Feiyang.
The situation could be said to be very bad, but in order to get the Inner Core of the Face Hunting Beast, even if it was a dragon in a dragon's pool or a tiger's cave, he had to go.
It was undoubtedly much safer to act at night. Hence, Linlong chose to act at night.
Shortly after nightfall, when a dark cloud covered the moon in the sky, Linlong began to act.
Although there were four of them, there were only two checkpoints on this road, and each one was guarded by one person. After all, people always needed to rest. When two people were watching, the other two would be resting.
The first checkpoint was under the small stone house, and the second checkpoint was in the cave.
The first checkpoint was Fang Ziyue, who was the middle-aged man who went with Fang Zheng to pick up the people today.
To be honest, Fang Ziyue didn't agree with Fang Feiyang's cautious approach. In his opinion, it was a little paranoid. After all, with Fang Feiyang in charge, who would dare to poach this Face Hunting Beast? What's more, there were definitely no more than three people who knew about the existence of the Face Hunting Beast.
However, he didn't dare to disobey Fang Feiyang's orders.
However, when Fang Feiyang couldn't see him, he naturally wouldn't be so serious. For example, now that there was no moonlight at all, Fang Feiyang definitely wouldn't notice him being lazy.
However, he quickly discovered something unusual. There was a sound of footsteps not far away.
"Who is it?" Fang Ziyue shouted in a low voice.
"It's me."
The voice that responded was very familiar. It was the voice of Young Master Fang Zheng.
"Young Master, why did you come back so late? Fortunately, the patriarch believed that you went with Zian to chase a fierce beast that inexplicably broke into this place. Otherwise, you will definitely be punished tonight." Fang Ziyue complained and said, "Didn't you see Zian?"
"Uncle Ziyue, I'm really sorry … I didn't see Uncle Zian," Fang Zheng said with a trembling voice.
It was not that he didn't see Fang Zian, but that Fang Zian was simply put down by Linlong who used him as bait.
"That's strange. If Zian didn't see you, why didn't you come back?" Fang Ziyue felt a little strange.
With his attention focused on this, he ignored the trembling of Fang Zheng's voice.
He didn't expect that as soon as he finished speaking, Fang Zheng, who was only one step away from him, suddenly opened his hand. A pinch of powder immediately rushed toward him. Before he could figure out what was going on, Fang Ziyue had already fallen to the ground in a daze.
"Linlong, is this okay? You can remove the restriction on me now, right?" At this moment, Fang Zheng turned around and looked at Linlong, who was hiding behind him, and said eagerly.
To be honest, the more he understood Linlong, the more he felt that Linlong was terrifying. This was because Linlong was actually not discovered by Fang Ziyue even though he was so close to him.
Of course, what made him feel that Linlong was terrifying was Linlong's chilling techniques and the drug that could even knock out a Martial Master expert in an instant.
It was also because of this that he obediently listened to Linlong's words and scattered the powder on Fang Ziyue.
How did this guy know all of this?
Fang Zheng had countless questions in his heart. Of course, he didn't dare to ask such questions.
What he had scattered on Fang Ziyue just now was an extremely powerful hallucinogenic drug. Even a powerful martial artist at the ninth level of a Martial Master might fall for this drug, let alone an ordinary Fang Ziyue.
This kind of drug only appeared many years later in his previous life. Therefore, at this stage in the Mutian Continent, there was probably no alchemist who could refine such a drug.
It was also because of this that Linlong was at ease letting Fangzheng throw it out.
Linlong couldn't be bothered with Fangzheng, who already saw his methods as venomous as snakes and ferocious beasts. Instead, he directly slapped the back of Fangzheng's head and knocked him out.
"I'll do it myself now," Linlong muttered softly.
He dragged the two people on the ground to the side and hid them. After changing into Fangzheng's clothes, he walked toward the cave not far away.
His figure wasn't much different from Fangzheng's. In addition, he had specially imitated Fangzheng's walking posture, so if one didn't pay attention, they wouldn't be able to tell that this person wasn't Fangzheng.
Even so, when he walked to the middle of the road, Linlong vaguely felt as if there was a gaze staring at him from behind. Furthermore, it stayed on him and didn't leave.
Fortunately, when he approached the cave, this faintly discernible sight finally disappeared.
