Chapter 194: Phantoms from the Snow Mountain
Chapter 194: Phantoms from the Snow Mountain
"Snow mountain?" Meng Zhiling frowned and asked again to confirm.
"Yes, Snow Mountain. As for the identity of that mysterious woman, I can only guess that she comes from Snow Mountain. Otherwise, she must have a close relationship with Snow Mountain." Heizi nodded. Although it was very good to be able to find out this much, the other party acted too meticulously. He felt that even this little information would not be of much help.
"As for the Snow Mountain, I've actually been there once. Remember the uproar over the Seven-Colored Snow Lotus last year? Because of the fight over the Snow Lotus, I did become enemies with a beautiful woman, but I had already beaten her to death, and she was the type that couldn't possibly be resurrected. So it's impossible for her to want to kill me, unless she's resurrected through someone else's body..."
Meng Zhiling narrowed her eyes and said lightly.
What Heizi said to Xiaobai actually scared him.
After all, in this world, they had only heard of the phenomenon of resurrection, but it had never really happened to them. After hearing what Meng Zhiling said, they still felt weird and panicked.
However, in Meng Zhiling's view, she herself was a reincarnation, and although Xue Rou's transformation into Rose was not a reincarnation, she should have experienced some unnatural phenomena. Therefore, for her, nothing is impossible, and she can accept anything unnatural or supernatural.
The supernatural person itself is a supernatural phenomenon!
"Resurrection from the dead? Impossible, don't scare me!" Heizi opened his eyes wide, indicating that he was also terrified by this kind of thing.
"Yeah, I also think it's unlikely, so I don't know who wants to kill me." Meng Zhiling spread out her hands, looking very calm, drinking milk, not caring at all.
"Captain, how about I stay with you 24 hours a day?" Xiaobai finally spoke and said as he sat down.
Meng Zhiling smiled slightly. "Twenty-four hours? Are you kidding? I have a boyfriend, okay?"
Seeing that both of them had serious expressions, Meng Zhiling made a little joke to ease the atmosphere.
Xiaobai was originally shy, and when she heard what Meng Zhiling said, she immediately lowered her head. Although she lowered her head, one could see that her ears and neck were flushed, and it seemed that she was thinking of some scenes that were not suitable for children.
Heizi also chuckled, turned around and saw Xiaobai like this, and gave Meng Zhiling a pleading look.
"Okay, Xiaobai, don't be shy. It's not that I don't believe in your ability, but there is no need to be shy. Do you know how many people are protecting me now? Qiao Surong and Yuan Yongkai's people followed me, but when something bad happened, it still happened. So there is no need to be shy. Don't worry, the person in this world who can kill me has not been born yet!" Meng Zhiling had a smile on her lips. She didn't want Xiaobai to keep shrinking his head, so she had to be serious first.
Xiaobai raised his head and pouted. "Alright, then you should be careful. Heizi, you should continue your investigation. Since you've found the Snow Mountain, then you should continue your investigation and find out what organizations or individuals are related to the Snow Mountain."
As soon as Xiaobai talked about these serious matters, his confidence instantly exploded, and Heizi nodded, as if he was used to Xiaobai like this.
"The only sect on the Snow Mountain is the Wuxiang Sect. However, as early as two hundred years ago, due to the disputes in the martial arts world, the Wuxiang Sect was rumored to have been wiped out. In the past two hundred years, there has not been a single Wuxiang Sect disciple or member in the martial arts world. In the past two hundred years, there has not been any organization or individual in the Snow Mountain. Due to some natural factors, the environment has become uninhabitable for humans. Many people who have ventured to climb the mountain have never been able to make it out."
Heizi paused, seeing that they were all listening to him attentively, took a sip of water, and continued, "Even during the last Seven-Colored Snow Lotus incident, many junior psychics were buried there. If there are people who have lived there for a long time, they must be people with very high cultivation abilities."
"Yes, I have seen someone who has been there for a long time. Although his level may be around the Earth level, his ability is far beyond the Earth level of our world. I almost died there."
Meng Zhiling agreed very much with Heizi's point of view, which reminded her of the silver python. If she had not been rescued that time, she would probably have died together with her.
"By the way, Captain, I found something very strange!" Heizi opened his mouth, as if he had hesitated for a long time, before speaking cautiously.
Meng Zhiling looked at his expression and knew that what he was going to say might not be simple. She had finished her breakfast and was about to leave, but in the end she sat down with peace of mind.
"whats the matter?"
"The phantom comes from the snowy mountains!"
Heizi looked at Meng Zhiling's pupils and saw that her pupils shrank. It was obvious that Meng Zhiling was not aware of this matter, and she seemed very skeptical.
"Did Phantom really come from the snow mountain? Then what did you find out by following him?" Meng Zhiling narrowed her eyes slightly. Although she did not blindly suspect Phantom, if the series of events surrounding her encounter with Phantom were manipulated by someone behind the scenes, or if this was Phantom's plan, she would definitely not tolerate it.
"The strange thing is that the investigation of Phantom is exactly the same as the investigation of the mysterious Muzi. The investigation stops at the snow mountain, and before that, it's a blank, and nothing can be found at all. So because of these similarities, I suspect that Phantom and the mysterious woman are in the same group." Heizi's face was still solemn. He didn't expect that the captain would save an ungrateful person again and again, or he might have planned it all.
Meng Zhiling frowned and thought for a few minutes without saying anything.
"No, even if Phantom is in cahoots with her, his goals are different. If Phantom wanted to kill me, he would have had the chance to do so when we first met. He had even more chances during our subsequent encounters. So, something must have happened in between that we don't know about."
Heizi and Xiaobai could only listen to what Meng Zhiling said, because they were not involved and had no contact with her. They only found out the general idea of the matter. If they didn't check, they would have no idea what kind of people had appeared around Meng Zhiling.
"Heizi, how about this? You should take your trusted followers to Southeast Asia and quickly grasp the core strength of Huoshu. I'm afraid we'll have to fight a long and fierce battle. With our current strength and level, in the eyes of others, we're just ants that can be crushed to death at any time."
Kuroko nodded to indicate that he accepted the order.
"Xiaobai, are you going with Heizi? Or are you staying?" Meng Zhiling actually wanted Xiaobai to go with Heizi. After all, if she followed her, her risk factor would be higher. If she followed Heizi, although it would also be dangerous, at least her life would not be in danger.
But despite this, she still wants to fight for it
Xiaobai looked at Heizi and finally bit his lip, "Captain, I will stay and live and die with you!"
Xiaobai's excited and fearless expression made Meng Zhiling depressed.
"Okay, you should just follow Heizi. Now that you mention it, I'm really afraid I'll die someday."
Meng Zhiling thought about it again and finally decided to let Xiaobai leave.
Heizi, on the other hand, held Xiaobai's hand and said helplessly, "You're such a bad mouth!"
"Haha, it's okay. I have made arrangements here, and you are more needed over there. I'm sorry for your hard work!" Meng Zhiling said, patting Xiaobai's shoulder.
Xiaobai immediately shook his head and sat up straight, "It's not hard, Captain, this is what we should do."
"This is Huoshu's account, and it will be handed over to Xiaobai. From now on, Xiaobai will be your accountant and cashier. You two should discuss and communicate more on everything, okay?" Meng Zhiling looked at Heizi, knowing that he had a hot temper and that only Xiaobai could deal with him.
Therefore, if the two of them work together, complementing each other's strengths and weaknesses, they should be able to achieve great things.
"Yes, Captain, we understand!" Heizi immediately stood up and answered respectfully.
"This card represents your food, clothing, housing and transportation in the past. I will contact them and make arrangements for you two. Be more careful in everything. If you see something is wrong, you must first learn to save your life. Do you understand?" Meng Zhiling reminded them reluctantly.
Although I feel reluctant and worried, in my heart, they seem to have already been my brothers and sisters, my relatives, but there is nothing I can do, life is always like this, gatherings and separations are common!
Heizi originally wanted to refuse Meng Zhiling's bank card, but Meng Zhiling glared at him and he glared back, and took the card politely. In gratitude for Meng Zhiling's kindness, they could only do more for her so that she would worry less, and do as much as they could.
After explaining the matter to Heizi and the others, Meng Zhiling returned to the apartment. After all, she was still worried about Qiao Surong.
"Why did you come back just now?" As expected, as soon as Meng Zhiling entered the door, her body fell into a warm embrace. A gentle and hoarse voice sounded in her ears. Meng Zhiling felt her body soften, and a sense of happiness arose spontaneously.
"I went to the villa to see if Heizi had found anything. Besides, it's time to deal with the Southeast Asian issue!"
Hugging her and lying on the sofa, Meng Zhiling said with a slightly tired look.
"Take a rest and don't think too much. Everything will be fine. I won't let anything happen to you." Qiao Surong hugged her and said with heartache.
After saying that, he secretly kissed her on the cheek.
"Well, I'm not worried at all. Why didn't you rest? You still blamed me and were disobedient!" Meng Zhiling pouted, very dissatisfied with his disobedient attitude.
I clearly told him to have a good rest when I sent him back this morning, but now it seems that he hasn't even closed his eyes since he came back.
"Haha, Mengmeng, I took a break and just got up when I heard your footsteps. You have to believe me!" Qiao Surong opened his eyes wide and raised his voice, which was obviously a sign of guilt when lying.
