【Law of the Abyss】
Chapter 22 Doubt
Mu Bei and Hong Die talked for a long time, and they reached an agreement that he would cover for her until she and Lei Yiming got married, and she would also help him achieve his desired goal.
When Mu Bei came out of the room, he saw Lei Yiming standing at the door for an unknown period of time. His heart skipped a beat. He wondered how much he had heard.
"Is there something wrong?" Mu Beidao said.
Lei Yiming nodded: "Is she feeling better?"
Just as Mu Bei was about to answer, he heard Hong Die's voice from inside. If he didn't listen carefully, it sounded exactly the same as Feng Ye Lan's: "Let him in."
He was surprised. This woman named Hongdie was really amazing. She could imitate Feng Yelan's voice so similarly in such a short time. People who were not familiar with her would definitely not be able to hear the difference. What's more, Lei Yiming and Feng Yelan had just met.
Lei Yiming went in and came out after half a cup of tea. Mu Bei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his expression had not changed. It turned out that lying was not something a human would do. He was in agony doing it, as he was afraid that Xiao Hongdie would be exposed. At the same time, he was worried about Feng Yelan in his heart, wondering if she was really doing fine as she said?
Lei Yiming called him aside and whispered, "Ms. Feng, you are much more lively now."
Mu Bei was nervous, but he didn't show it on his face: "She has always been lively, but she was in a bad mood earlier."
"Oh, really?" Lei Yiming looked at him thoughtfully.
"Of course, would I lie to you?" Mu Bei stared into his eyes without blinking.
"It's strange, but I always feel that there is something wrong with Miss Feng." Lei Yiming continued.
"What's wrong?"
"According to common sense, can a woman really let go of someone she has loved for a long time so easily and start a new life so eagerly?"
"I don't know. I'm not a girl, so how can I know what girls think? But people grow up."
"Brother Mubei, you are absolutely right. I was overthinking."
Lei Yiming left, and Mu Bei immediately went into the room and looked for Hong Die: "What did you say to him just now? He felt something was wrong."
Hongdie smiled and said, "I didn't say anything. I just expressed my willingness to be a loving couple with him and run a family together."
Mu Bei laughed in anger: "You are being too proactive. Ye Lan would never say that."
"I'm not the eldest daughter of the Feng family, why should I be like her?" Hong Die asked back.
"You... this will arouse his suspicion. If he finds out, you can't marry him." For a selfish person like Hongdie, one can only explain the pros and cons to her and ask her to restrain herself.
Hongdie smiled proudly and said, "No, I know him. Even if he has doubts and is not 100% sure, he will still proceed according to the plan and will not let things go beyond the plan. You don't know that he was shy just now. He has never shown such an expression in front of me. Your eldest daughter is really lucky."
Mu Bei shook his head. He really couldn't continue talking to her. He was afraid that he would be unable to control himself and would be exposed.
He left Hongdie and just as he walked to the stern of the boat, the Leifeng boat stopped moving. The surroundings were covered in white and foggy.
Mu Bei stood in the fog and could not see anything. He heard a strange bird cry, and then a black shadow approached quickly and landed on the boat. The thick fog dissipated, and Mu Bei discovered that the black shadows were actually four black vultures. On the black vulture in the middle sat a boy of about fifteen or sixteen. He was wearing a black robe with gold trimmings, and his long jet-black hair was tied behind his head with a jade-colored ribbon and had a small braid.
"Brother, why did you come back so late? Did everything go well? The elders are waiting for you."
Lei Yiming smiled at the young man and said, "Yinuo, sorry for the long wait."
They chatted for a few more sentences, and Lei Yiming introduced them to each other.
The Lei family lives on Yinlei Mountain. There is a guardian formation outside, and people entering and leaving must be led by someone from the Lei family.
It was Mu Bei’s first time riding a bird. The black falcon was completely black, even its eyes were black. It looked at him and made a few hoarse and unpleasant sounds, which scared Mu Bei so much that he stepped back repeatedly.
Seeing this, Lei Yinuo laughed out loud: "Don't be afraid, it likes you very much. You can touch it and get familiar with it."
After hearing this, Mu Bei bravely took a step forward. As soon as he stretched out his hand, a black head immediately came over and rubbed his palm precisely. It must be said that this bird was much bolder than him.
He gently touched its feathers, and the black falcon spread its wings and flapped a few times. The black wingtips raised a gust of wind, blowing up his hair in front of his forehead. Mu Bei felt a chill. The next second, the black falcon paused and squatted down. It glanced at Mu Bei and called out to him.
"Brother Wu, I'm coming up!" Mu Bei said as he carefully sat astride Wu Falcon. There were two rope-like things hanging beside Wu Falcon's ears. Seeing this, Mu Bei grabbed those two things and sat steadily on Wu Falcon's back.
It cried out, spread its wings, and flew into the sky. The wind whistled in his ears. Mu Bei looked down and saw only a thick fog. After a while, Mu Bei saw a transparent white cover in front of him, blocking the way like a piece of glass. He could not see anything inside the glass.
Lei Yinuo, who was in front of him, flashed through the glass and disappeared. The next second, he also came in.
Is this the Lei family? Mu Bei was shocked. In front of him was a high mountain with houses everywhere. From the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain and then to the top of the mountain, the houses were densely packed and looked very shocking.
The black falcon brought him to the highest house on the top of the mountain. He got off the black falcon, and it looked at him and flew away again.
Lei Yiming turned to Lei Yinuo and said, "Yinuo, take them to rest first."
Lei Yinuo nodded and said to Mu Bei: "Come with me first."
Mu Bei followed him through the corridor, walked into an archway, and came to a courtyard with a patio, trees, and several rooms. Mu Bei lived in the east room, and Honglian was arranged to live in a courtyard not far from him.
His room was very large and decorated in a very grand and luxurious manner, even better than the one he lived in at Feng's house. Just as he sat down and prepared to take a rest, he heard a knock on the door. He stood up and saw that it was Hongdie.
"Wow, your room is really nice." Hongdie sat on the chair he had just sat on.
"What do you want to do?" Mu Bei asked unhappily.
"I'm not doing anything. I just came to remind you not to leave the yard for no reason and wander around the Lei family. The Lei family is not what you think. There are dangers hidden everywhere." Hongdie said seriously.
After saying that, Hongdie took down a red butterfly and placed it on the table. "This is my fire butterfly. If you have any problems, you can release it and it will find me."
The red butterfly left. Mu Bei picked up the fire butterfly and looked at it carefully. It looked lifeless, like a biological specimen. He really doubted whether it was dead or alive. He put it away and put it into the space ring.
For several days, no one came to see him, and Mu Bei wandered around the yard alone. Of course, he still chose to listen to Hong Die and did not leave the yard.
That day, Lei Yinuo came to see him and saw him sitting alone in the yard basking in the sun.
"Hey, aren't you bored sitting in the yard all day? Why don't you go for a walk?"
"I don't know the way." Mu Bei made up an excuse.
Lei Yinuo felt a little contemptuous in his heart. A grown man couldn't even recognize the road. How boring! He had wanted to find someone to play with, but after hearing what he said, he instantly lost interest. However, he thought of Lei Yiming and said, "My eldest brother asked me to take you for a walk and get familiar with the road."
Mu Bei followed behind Lei Yinuo. The Lei family divided the residential areas according to the level of cultivation.
There are nine checkpoints from the foot of Leiyin Mountain to the top. One to three are located at the foot of the mountain, three to six are located halfway up the mountain, and six to nine are located at the top of the mountain. Every time you pass a level, you will get corresponding resources.
The Lei family does not value family background, but only ability. Where you can stand depends on your own strength. As your strength increases, you will gain more and more resources.
Lei Yinuo and Lei Yiming are both young geniuses that have not appeared in the Lei family for a hundred years. It took them less than three years to get from the foot of the mountain to the top.
Lei Yiming has reached the eighth level, and Lei Yinuo has reached the seventh level. You have to know that one of them is eighteen years old, and the other is only sixteen years old.
However, there was one thing Mu Bei couldn't understand. Since Lei Yiming was so powerful and so young, why didn't he continue to practice, but instead went to the Feng family to propose marriage?
He was completely unaware and said what he was thinking. Lei Yinuo's face changed. To be honest, he didn't understand either. He only knew that the condition for his brother to be confirmed as the next head of the family was to marry into the Feng family. Although he had asked him about it, he said nothing.
Just as they were silent, there was a loud noise in the sky, and countless thunders struck down one after another. The tree in front of them was actually knocked down by the thunder and was smoking.
Lei Yinuo's face changed, and he said to Mu Bei: "Hide quickly!"
Mu Bei ran wildly with his feet spread out, and finally saw a house in front of him. He ran straight in, but there was no one inside.
The thunder in the sky became louder and louder, as if a hundred thousand pound bomb exploded next to his ear. He covered his ears and huddled to one side, feeling strange in his heart: Wasn't this thunder coming too suddenly?
