Lin Mengya looked at the teacher who started to quarrel with her again, but she smiled and occasionally said a few words.
Although she did not have enough confidence, she did not want to see her teacher wallowing in the past because of this.
She came out of the cabin and walked to the deck.
The sea breeze caressed her hair. She was as beautiful as the most beautiful goddess on the Fairy Mountain in the sea.
Turning around, she was not surprised to see Long Tianhao standing not far behind her in a protective posture.
Taking advantage of the orange afterglow, she clearly saw the deep and passionate love in his eyes.
"Why are you looking at me like this?"
She tilted her head and said in a coquettish tone that she had never used to others.
In the eyes of others, she was the master of the Gong family, the genius poison doctor who carried the banner of the revival of the entire Poison Sect.
But in front of him, she was just her.
She could be soft, capricious, and easily show her true side.
He walked over and stood beside her.
"I like looking at you."
The words of love that made her ears itch made her heart tremble slightly.
She pretended to roll her eyes at him impatiently, but even she did not realize that the corner of her mouth had been curled up.
"Be careful when you arrive at the Baili family."
She always had extra worries about him.
In terms of martial arts and intelligence, she believed that her man could definitely defeat all of them in a second.
But this time, the Baili family was determined to win, so they would definitely use many treacherous methods.
Whether it was poison or medicine, its power was immeasurable in the hands of people who were proficient in it.
She was afraid that her man would be tricked by others.
She never wanted to see him being at the mercy of poison without any resistance.
To him, it would be worse than death.
He reached out his fingers and gently smoothed the wrinkles between her eyebrows.
"I know."
There were many things that he could not tell her.
Therefore, he felt both warm and apologetic for her concern.
It seemed that he had gone too far in pretending to be pitiful in front of Ya 'er.
A trace of joy crept into his dark eyes.
He deliberately thought that it was better not to tell her.
He would let her mind always fall on him, and never share it with anyone else, not even the slightest bit.
The atmosphere between the two of them was thick. Suddenly, Long Tianhao held her in his arms and dodged to the side.
The deck that the two of them were standing on just now was now nailed with a row of hidden weapons.
"Ah Da!"
Long Tianhao shouted coldly and chased after her.
The next moment, Ada replaced him and stood in front of Lin Mengya to protect her.
"Be careful!"
Lin Mengya was worried.
Since the other party dared to make a move in front of him, he probably had the ability to escape.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, Long Tianhao returned to her with a small scarecrow in his hand.
"It's a trap that was set long ago."
Long Tianhao was very displeased.
At that time, he had moved as fast as he could. If the other party had been beside him, he would not have been able to hide in time.
But when he arrived, there was only this thing there to make up the numbers.
Thinking about it, the person who plotted against him had plenty of time to slip away.
She also saw the mechanism.
It was a very simple trigger device that used candlelight. Moreover, it was the kind of candle that could be found anywhere.
"I'll search every room!"
"Wait."
Lin Mengya stopped Ada's action.
Looking at the scarecrow, she felt as if she was being stared at by a pair of sinister eyes at any time and place.
She waved her hand and signaled Ada to take the scarecrow away.
She turned around and saw the gloomy look in Long Tianhao's eyes. She lowered her voice and said, "Now, the Poison Sect has just united. If I were to search now, wouldn't it cause more trouble? "
Long Tianhao never cared about such things.
But he had to take care of her feelings.
"I understand."
"Of course, I won't let this black sheep off. The reason why he could plot against me at this time is that he wants the Poison Sect to fall out with him. "
The hidden weapons that were set up would lose the upper hand in terms of accuracy.
If she made any other moves during the period set by the other party, the hidden weapons would not be able to hit her.
Rather than saying that he wanted to kill her, it would be better to say that he wanted to make use of this matter to make some other achievements.
Of course, she would not let him succeed!
Naturally, Long Tianhao hated the person behind the scenes more than she did.
He had just summoned his secret guards and ordered them to investigate in secret. At this moment, he heard a cry of alarm from the cabin.
"Second Uncle, Second Uncle, are you alright? Help, help! "
The mournful cry for help alarmed everyone on the ship.
The two of them looked at each other and dared to go in the direction of the cry before most of the people arrived.
"What's wrong?"
The two of them broke into a small cabin.
There were only two beds and a small table in it. The situation was clear at a glance.
A young man with a panicked expression was kneeling in front of the other bed, calling for his family non-stop.
"What happened?"
As soon as she came in, she smelled the strong smell of blood in the air.
Hearing her voice, the teenager immediately turned around and cried, "Master Gong, my second uncle, he is dead!"
Dead?
Her heart skipped a beat and she immediately went to the bed to check.
He saw a middle-aged man in his forties with his eyes tightly shut. His chest was strangely sunken in.
The pillow was stained with blood from the corner of his mouth, and his body was stiff. It seemed that he had been dead for a while.
"Don't cry. Tell me, how did you find out that your second uncle was dead?"
The teenager was also at a loss. Hearing this, he sobbed and said, "After getting on the ship, my second uncle said that he was seasick and went back to his room to rest. I was in someone else's room. When I came back just now, I saw my second uncle was dead. "
The teenager was already devastated by the loss of his relatives, so Lin Mengya did not continue to ask.
At this moment, the companions who came after hearing the sound also had tears in their eyes.
No one expected such a thing to happen.
"Everyone, please be quiet. It happened so suddenly. We'd better find some clues first. Did anyone hear anything just now? "
She stood up and said to everyone.
Everyone shook their heads.
The ship was not small, so even though they had many people, they could still live on it.
At that time, they were in a hurry to get on the ship and felt a little relaxed. Therefore, most of them were resting in their cabins.
The incident happened during dinner time. However, everyone was having dinner in their own cabins.
Therefore, there was no clue.
Lin Mengya frowned.
The teenager was dead. If it was not handled well now, she was afraid that it would cause panic.
"Everyone, please go back to your rooms. I'll be responsible for investigating this matter. Later, I'll ask someone to protect you in front of the door. No matter what happens, please.
You must ask for help. Don't be careless! "
Everyone nodded.
After taking one last look at their dead companions, they left with heavy steps.
The teenager had been taken away by other relatives and friends, and there were only a few people in the cabin.
She lifted the man's clothes, and a big black and purple handprint was impressively printed on his chest.
"It doesn't seem to be caused by martial arts."
Long Tianhao was a master in the world. He could tell at a glance.
Lin Mengya nodded.
"Yes, it's not martial arts, but poison."
She knew it from the moment she entered the door.
She did not know who did it, but she was sure that it was a master among masters.
Long Tianhao mixed his men with those of the Gong family and did the assigned work.
Lin Mengya also pulled up the clothes of the corpse and ordered that no one was allowed to enter without her permission.
The two of them looked at each other, and their eyes were full of heaviness.
Outside, the sky was completely dark.
The sea breeze whistled, bringing with it a damp chill.
She looked outside, said nothing, and followed Long Tianhao back to the room.
Her teacher and uncle were also very busy at this moment.
The sudden death of their companion had cast a shadow of uneasiness on everyone.
No one knew if there would be another, and if there was, who would be the one to blame.
Who wouldn't be afraid of death?
Even though they did not regret taking this path, the threat of death still made everyone's hearts race.
"I'll go out to patrol, wait for me."
Long Tianhao said in a low voice, as he lifted the oil lamp.
Lin Mengya immediately followed him.
She was also full of doubts about what had happened.
Long Tianhao did not stop her, but held her hand and walked out of the cabin together.
There were three floors in the cabin, and they lived on the top floor, so the room was relatively more spacious than the one below.
Inside the cabin, all the doors were closed.
The guards brought by the Gong Family and Long Tianhao guarded the door vigilantly, giving them a sense of security.
They checked along the way, but did not find anything unusual.
"Let's go to the deck and have a look."
Although there was no one on the deck, she still felt worried.
He had the same intention, so he nodded and led her out of the cabin.
When they reached the middle of the cabin, Lin Mengya saw someone in front.
They immediately lightened their steps and quietly sneaked over.
On the dark stern of the ship, two figures were doing something sneakily.
Long Tianhao narrowed his eyes, suddenly went forward, and grabbed the two people who were doing something.
"Ah! Let me go! "
Their voices were so young that she was a little surprised.
Long Tianhao carried them to the light, one in each hand.
The two of them were actually sixteen or seventeen years old.
They were struggling fiercely just now, but when they saw the people in front of them, they suddenly froze and looked at them in horror.
"You, you, are you going to kill us?"
Huh?
Lin Mengya did not understand why they said that.
"Why didn't you two sleep at night? What are you doing there? Don't you know that it's dangerous at night? If you fall down, there's no way to save you. "
Unexpectedly, the other teenager shouted angrily, "Don't pretend to be a good person here! If we don't leave now, we will die in your hands sooner or later! "
