Chapter 121

~7 min read 1,356 words

Feng Mu was just about to speak.

She Mian Gong Qi suddenly shouted, "Take that hand out, take everything out of your trouser pockets."

The receiver's face changed slightly, but he still obediently extended his hand, which was clutching a mobile phone, its screen currently blind-dialing a number.

The number had already been half-entered.

Gong Qi's sharp eyes could spot that the receiver was still not being honest even at death's door; on one hand, this was due to his sharp eyes and heavy curiosity, and on the other hand, it was due to the occupational disease of a Prison Guard.

"Good thing Fifth Senior Brother has sharp eyes, otherwise I nearly made a huge mistake," Feng Mu said sincerely and gratefully.

Gong Qi walked over, snatched the mobile phone and handed it to Feng Mu, laughing, "Junior Brother is still inexperienced in the world, too honest; don't blame yourself, blame only the bad people outside for being too despicable and insidious."

The receiver's facial muscles twitched, leaving him with no words to reply.

Feng Mu looked coldly at the receiver and said, "You were dishonest, the previous question is void, restarting the count — no problem, right?"

The receiver spread his hands, seeming to have completely extinguished any other thoughts, and nodded resignedly.

Before coming, Feng Mu had already prepared his script; three questions were asked in succession, and the receiver cooperated by giving answers to all of them.

Feng Mu frowned slightly, pondering the answers to the three questions he had just obtained.

"This person wanted to scheme against me even at death's door; his words cannot be fully trusted. I'll record the answers for now, and when the next batch of E Corpse Teaching friends arrive, I'll still need them to help me verify."

Feng Mu closed the computer, put away the mobile phone, turned around, and made a move to leave.

The receiver panicked; he had just taken a step forward when he saw Niu Tou, the Hyena, and She Mian, all three blocking his way simultaneously, each staring at him with eyes full of malicious intent.

His gaze did not seem to be looking at a man about to die, but rather at a delicious dish that had been cooked and served on the table.

The receiver roared, "Feng Mu, I answered all your questions, but you still haven't answered mine."

Feng Mu stopped in his tracks, turned his head, and faced the receiver with a calm goat face, apologetically saying, "Oh, I almost forgot."

Feng Mu paused for a moment, then said, "But you just tried to scheme against me, and I'm very annoyed in my heart."

The receiver shouted angrily, "I already answered one extra question for you."

Feng Mu shook his head, "That little punishment is far from enough. How about this: five minutes. If you can survive five minutes without dying, I'll tell you the answer."

After speaking, Feng Mu didn't wait for the receiver's agreement, but looked at Niu Tou, the Hyena, and She Mian and said: "."

Feng Mu's distribution like this was obviously keeping a level bowl of water; everyone came out together for 【Team Building】, so naturally everyone must have "meat" to eat.

"Hahaha, good Junior Brother!"

Hyena Yuan Xidi couldn't wait for the other two to agree; he laughed loudly, his pupils revealing terrifying killing intent, his single arm swinging round like a heavy cannon smashing toward the receiver's cheek.

Originally, he was still afraid this person would be frightened by Eldest Senior Brother, lose his fighting spirit, and wait for death with hands tied; he never expected Junior Brother's stroke of genius "five-minute countdown" would force the receiver to use all his skills to fight for his life.

"Aaaah, Feng Mu, you're shameless!"

The receiver's face twisted in suffocated rage; he was a strategist type, most hating meaningless killing, and moreover he couldn't win in a fight — better to die quickly and painlessly.

But now he had to fight desperately, because the sunk cost was higher than death.

The receiver looked at the Hyena pouncing to kill before him, his ferocious appearance fully revealed; the bloodlust and madness in the other's eyes made his scalp explode, and he hurriedly dodged.

"Feng Mu is insidious and cunning; the Senior Brothers he found are all a bunch of bloodthirsty madmen!"

The receiver dodged left and right, feeling like a sandbag being bombarded by heavy iron fists, continuously spitting out black blood from his mouth.

"Hahaha, satisfying."

Yuan Xidi laughed maniacally, his pair of iron fists like a violent storm enveloping the receiver's whole body; feeling blood splatter onto his mask, his heart was intoxicated, and he felt increasingly exhilarated.

Three minutes later.

Even though Yuan Xidi carefully held back his strength, the receiver's whole body's meridians and bones were completely shattered, lying on the ground like a puddle of mud, only his neck still able to turn.

The receiver panted heavily, staring dead at the goat face, and rasped, "Feng Mu, tell me, whose name are you pretending to be?"

Feng Mu walked to the receiver's front, looking down on him from above: "Forget it. Although you didn't last long enough, who made me soft-hearted? I'll tell you, so you can die understanding."

Feng Mu half-squatted down, and whispered in the receiver's ear: "You're wrong. I'm not Feng Mu, I'm Zheng Hang!"

The receiver's pupils dilated wide; having obtained the answer as he wished, his expression revealed a trace of relief.

Unexpectedly, the next sentence he heard was a mocking taunt: "You acted very well, but I almost got tricked by you."

The receiver's neck stiffened, his eyes bloodshot, glaring dead at Feng Mu.

Feng Mu said faintly, "You were too deliberate. The mobile phone dialing was just a smokescreen; the real recording was already hidden by you, right?"

The receiver remained silent, seeming not to understand what Feng Mu was saying.

Feng Mu sighed, extended a finger hook, lightly sliced open the latter's stomach, and groped inside to hook out an eyeball.

He tossed it lightly; the bloodstained eyeball refracted a technological luster under the dim yellow light, and inside was actually embedded a shrunken Crystal Yuan.

The receiver's face instantly turned deathly pale, and he rasped, "How did you discover it?"

Suddenly, a few frames of memory flashed through the receiver's mind — discovering that rust-stained iron nail in Feng Mu's room, glimpsing Feng Mu's true face from Hei Lian's words, and the scene just now of answering Feng Mu's questions.

These images rotated incessantly in his mind like a revolving lantern, giving him an indescribable sense of familiarity.

That time and that moment were exactly like this moment right now, simply as if Fate was playing a joke full of malice on him.

Feng Mu also felt the scene before him was somewhat familiar, so he sincerely praised, "You acted without any leaks; every detail was perfect. It's just a pity, luck isn't on your side."

He paused slightly, his fingertip crushing the eyeball, grinding the Crystal Yuan inside into scum, sprinkling it bit by bit onto the receiver's forehead.

He said, "This trick, I just saw it on someone else a moment ago!!!"

After speaking, Feng Mu stood up, his shoe sole stepping on the receiver's face, flattening the other's shock and despair together into the floor.

"One after another, what bad habits they've learned; they all like hiding things in their eyes."

【You killed the opponent, and absorbed most of the Resentment on his body; a small portion of Resentment dissipated with his death.】

【The E Iron stored in your body has been greatly digested, E Iron Consumption Rate↑】

【Yin Sha Nine Nether E Corpse Resentment Iron (Consumption Rate 5.7%/100%, Reserves 0.3%).】

A line of Prompt Box flashed before his eyes; Feng Mu under the mask revealed a thoughtful expression.

Two seconds passed.

Feng Mu drew back his foot and said to She Mian Gong Qi, whose eyes were shining: "Fifth Senior Brother, you're absolutely right. Outsiders are more cunning than one another; from now on I must keep my wits about me."
