C20 The Secret of the Assassination

"By the way, Little Junior Brother, why are you looking for Master?" Wang Fann asked curiously.

"I want to go to the basement to investigate something, so I need to ask Master for that special order. " This was not something that needed to be hidden, so Ye Heng spoke bluntly.

"Special warrant? Oh, oh, that thing, there's no need to specially look for master. I can help you get it. But. . . " Wang Fann suddenly stopped talking and gave Ye Heng a meaningful glance.

Ye Heng was not stupid. He naturally understood what Wang Fann meant and said: "Senior brother, if you have something to say, just say it. As long as I can help, I will do my best. "

Hearing this, Wang Fann slapped his thigh and said happily, "With junior brother's words, senior brother will be relieved. I will help you get the order right away, but you have to help senior brother. "

Before Ye Heng could say anything, Wang Fann continued, "Don't worry, that is a very simple matter. Tomorrow, you can take my senior brother's place and help the tomboy clean the courtyard. How is it? It's very simple, isn't it? "

Wang Fann hooked his arm around Ye Heng and showed a very intimate look. He had an expression that said, Why would I cheat you?

Although Ye Heng had a feeling that there was some kind of conspiracy behind this, he couldn't refuse it at this moment.

After that, Wang Fann pulled Ye Heng to the basement where the information was stored. In front of the attic.

"Senior brother, didn't you say you were holding a token? Why did you come here first?" Ye Heng asked in confusion.

Wang Fann did not answer. Instead, he smiled mysteriously. He was pointing at his lips. He made a shushing sound.

Seeing this, Ye Heng did not want to disturb him. He tactfully shut his mouth.

Then, Wang Fann bent his index finger and put it into his mouth, then blew fiercely.

"Swoosh. . . "

A sharp and piercing whistle spread out like a wave in the distance.

After three breaths, a green light approached at an astonishing speed in Ye Heng's line of sight.

After another two breaths, the green light flew to the top of Wang Fann's head, spinning continuously.

The green light dispersed, and its face could finally be seen clearly.

It was the green-furred parrot that Ye Heng had seen in the meeting hall not long ago.

Although he was somewhat mentally prepared, he was still shocked when he saw it.

Seeing Ye Heng's surprised look, Wang Fann chuckled and explained, "When I first came here, I was also shocked by the speed of the green-furred parrot. Now, I'm no longer surprised. "

"Could it be that the special order is this parrot?" Ye Heng asked in disbelief.

After all, shouldn't a command medallion be something like a Jade Slip, a jade pendant, or a command medallion? It was Ye Heng's first time seeing a token made of living things. He couldn't help but wonder how Wang Fann would take the parrot to open the door to the basement.

"Yes, it's this green hair. Just you wait, I'll help you open the door to the basement. " Wang Fann nodded, then pulled out a glittering, translucent Essence Crystal from his bag of holding, which had the word 'beast' engraved on it. He waved it at the green-furred parrot.

In the next moment, the green-furred parrot swooped down like a wild gale. In less than half a breath's time, it returned to its original position.

The Essence Crystal in Wang Fann's hand was already in the mouth of the green-furred parrot.

"CRUNCH! CRUNCH!" The green-furred parrot bit down on the Essence Crystal, then swallowed it down in a few bites.

It could actually eat Essence Crystal! Ye Heng was shocked.

Although he had long heard that Strange Beasts could also be used to increase one's strength like human martial artists, he never thought that he could directly eat Essence Crystals.

After eating the Essence Crystals, the green-furred parrot seemed to be satisfied. It flapped its wings and gently landed on Wang Fann's arm.

"Junior Brother, let's go. " Just like that, Wang Fann carried the green-furred parrot and headed in the direction of the basement. Ye Heng followed closely behind.

The door of the basement was made of some kind of metal that Ye Heng did not know about. The door was engraved with patterns that could be used to connect with Yuan energy. From there, it formed a formation that gave off shocking fluctuations.

In the middle of the door, there was a stone slab that extended out. It seemed to be the location of the mechanism.

Wang Fann walked closer and held the green-furred parrot's arm slightly closer to the stone slab that had extended out.

Then, the parrot jumped onto the stone slab very nimbly.

"Rumble!"

With a loud bang, the door to the basement slowly opened.

"Junior brother, quickly go in. Senior brother will be waiting for you here. " Wang Fann walked to the side and teased the green-furred parrot.

Ye Heng naturally wouldn't be pretentious, and directly walked in.

Although the basement was not transparent, the surrounding walls were inlaid with fist-sized luminous pearls, so Ye Heng could clearly see the surrounding scenery.

The basement was not big, only about a hundred square meters. There were seven tables in total. Each table had nine Jade Slips on it.

With so many Jade Slips, Ye Heng did not know which one contained useful information for him, so he could only use the dumbest method to try them one by one.

Two hours later, Ye Heng arrived in front of the last table. He had already checked the ones in front of him, but he did not find any useful information. He did not know if he could find the answer he wanted today.

"The Jade Slip on that table, I think you should stop looking at it. There are only some records about the origin and history of the Strange Beast on it. There won't be any useful information for you. It would be a waste of time to look at it. " No one knew when Wang Fann walked in, but he scratched his head and tried to persuade him.

"Thank you senior brother for your good intentions. I still want to read it all. " Ye Heng's tone was firm. After all, he had seen so many things in front of him. Why would he care about this?

Wang Fann was not angry. He sighed and went out again.

An hour later, Ye Heng left the basement with a calm expression.

"How is it? Did you find the answer you wanted?" Wang Fann went up and asked casually.

Ye Heng did not answer. He just shook his head with a gloomy face.

Seeing Ye Heng's somewhat disheartened look, Wang Fann walked over and patted his shoulder, as if he wanted to comfort him.

However, what came out of his lower body was. . . This sentence had really pissed Ye Heng half to death.

"Little Junior Brother, don't forget to go to Du Ya's place tomorrow. "

Wang Fann was afraid that Ye Heng did not know who the tomboy he was talking about was, so he specifically pointed out his name.

Ye Heng rolled his eyes and rolled his eyes at Wang Fann, "Got it. "

"That's good, that's good. " Wang Fann blushed and felt a little awkward.

After that, Wang Fann took the green-furred parrot off the stone slab, and the door slowly closed with a rumbling sound.

Then, Wang Fann randomly made up an excuse and ran away, leaving Ye Heng alone in the same place, deep in thought.

Although Ye Heng did not find the information he wanted in the basement previously, he unexpectedly received a prompt that did not count as a hint.

On the last table, there was a Jade Slip left behind by a senior from Beast Peak. And in that Jade Slip, there was a ferocious beast that looked exactly the same as the one Ye Heng saw when he got the tattoo.

And Ye Heng also knew its identity. It was one of the seven ancient ferocious beasts, Qiong Qi. There was no other useful information about it.

Compared to gaining nothing, knowing its name was a good start.

Moreover, within the Jade Slip, there was a slight mention that the owner of these things had been accepted as a true disciple by one of the three main peaks, White Lufeng Peak.

This meant that if Ye Heng became a true disciple and entered White Lufeng, he would have a chance to understand the mysterious tattoo on the back of his hand.

The fact that Ye Heng was able to reach this place indicated that this mysterious tattoo had contributed a lot to him.

Therefore, if he could understand everything about the tattoo and completely grasp it, it wouldn't be a dream for him to improve his strength to the next level.

At the same time, he would be further away from the goal that he had buried deep in his heart.

The next day, Ye Heng went to Du Ya's courtyard according to the address that Wang Fann told him.

Although Du Ya had a hot temper, the place she lived in was unique.

The rockery was rugged, green water surrounded it, and there were several carp in the water. Moreover, in the middle of the courtyard, there was a special area that was used to cultivate roses.

"Rose?" Ye Heng muttered to himself and nodded slightly.

Indeed, if one used a flower to describe Du Ya, then the rose was indeed very suitable. It was beautiful and had thorns. If one was not careful, one would be able to stab a hand with blood.

At this moment, the door of the house opened with a creak.

Du Ya, with fiery red hair, walked out from the room. There was a trace of anxiety and worry on her pretty face. Judging from her attire, it was obvious that she had gone through some meticulous dressing.

When her bright eyes caught a glimpse of Ye Heng, her face was filled with surprise and puzzlement. Then, it turned into joy.

Du Ya walked happily towards Ye Heng and revealed a brilliant smile. It was like a hundred flowers blooming, beautiful and moving.

"Little Junior Brother, you have come at the right time. That damn Wang Fann actually stood me up. Next time we meet, I will definitely love him gently. " Du Ya's willowy eyebrows stood up. She gritted her silver teeth and said fiercely. The word gentle was especially emphasized.

"Actually, it was Senior Brother Wang who asked me to come. " Ye Heng explained.

"Humph, I didn't expect Wang Fann to know how to do things. Fine, sister is only magnanimous. Let him go. " The smile on Du Ya's face became stronger and her tensed eyebrows relaxed.

"That, Senior Sister Du. Don't tell me you want me to clean the yard?" The bad feeling in Ye Heng's heart became stronger and stronger.

"Huh? Didn't Wang Fann tell you? Forget it. Come with me first. We'll talk when we get there. " Du Ya didn't say anything else. She openly pulled Ye Heng's arm and walked out of the courtyard.

She had been cheated! Ye Heng's face was dull and his face was ashen.

When he first saw Du Ya, who was dressed meticulously and dressed up in formal attire, Ye Heng felt that something was wrong. Now, it was as he had expected.

Ye Heng had already scolded Wang Fann in his heart a thousand times, but no matter how he thought about it, it could not change the reality.

The only thing he could do now was to adapt to the situation. Ye Heng sighed and accepted his fate.

Ye Heng had witnessed Du Ya's fiery temper with his own eyes. If he angered her, only heaven knew. Would she also ruthlessly beat him up like how she treated Wang Fann?

Although Ye Heng might not be unable to beat her, if his relationship became stiff because of this, then his life in Beast Peak would naturally not be easy.

This was not what Ye Heng wanted to see. So now, he could only let her be.
