Chapter 123 Bandit Locke
Jiang Yubai strikes while the iron is hot: "It must be among the bandits, who has the idea of ​​treason and tried to replace you to your detriment. Take this opportunity of the granary to mislead you to kill me, so that your instant life recovery potion It will also disappear with my death, and then I will find another opportunity to give you some poison or something, so the cottage will be taken away by him?"

Phaedra raised his eyebrows, his expression still a little disbelieving: "What if it is really the granary you went to burn? Why should I believe you, an adventurer who has only been here for a few days?"

"I worship you very loyally, how dare I set fire to the granary? What's more, with my poor skills, how can I escape the strict patrol of many of your subordinates and run to the edge of the cottage? ?” Jiang Yubai’s face was full of anxiety and nervousness, with a look of “I can’t wait to prove my innocence by death”.

"It's true, how could you escape from the guards of the patrolling thieves? I'm sorry you don't dare to deceive me." Fei Dela nodded in agreement, and he had already believed Jiang Yubai's words, "Very good, thanks You found out and told me in advance, but who is behind the scenes?"

Yes, it worked!Jiang Yubai lowered his head and hooked the corners of his lips, as long as Fei Dela believed her words, everything would be fine.

Jiang Yubai frowned as if thinking about memories, hesitant and flustered in his tone, he seemed to be a little afraid of that memory: "I don't know about this, but when I woke up, I found myself in the back mountain, It’s not far from the granary. After waking up, I didn’t cry out. I just observed in the dark and vaguely saw a bandit named Locke, but he ran away quickly, so he probably didn’t notice that I woke up early. "After Jiang Yubai's observations during this period of time, he found that Locke was the best candidate to take the blame for her.Locke is a bandit who has been following Phaedra, and he can be regarded as a high-level person in the cottage.This kind of bandit who has been close to Fedora for a long time, and has a lot of power and ambitions, is the easiest to make him suspicious.

"Lock?!" Phaedra looked very surprised, "That's my most powerful assistant, we were the ones who took down this mountain together! And he usually looks very loyal, no matter how you think about it, he won't rebel."

Jiang Yubai's expression was a little anxious, and he swore: "But I'm really not mistaken, most likely he gave me an ecstasy drug, and then took me to the granary in the back mountain, set fire to the grain, and tried to frame me."

Phaedra still didn't quite believe that his friend would do such a thing, and raised his own question: "Then why didn't he kill you himself?"

"That will leave traces! If Locke kills me, the wound left on the corpse can be analyzed from the corpse to be his usual knife technique, so wouldn't he be exposed?" Jiang Yubai analyzed The grounds are well-founded and indeed convincing.

"Dear Mr. Phaedra, you don't know that the most dangerous people are often the people closest to you. As far as I know, Locke seems loyal and witty, but he is cunning in his heart, and he treats people with gentleness and courtesy on the surface. Your subordinates Many of the bandits have a good relationship with him, and they even respect him more than you! Maybe, because you were more powerful and became the king of the bandits, Locke had a long-standing grudge. This time I appeared I couldn't help but want to take action." Jiang Yubai seemed very distressed, and his words were full of worries about Fei Dela, "The bandits originally respected you and wanted to follow you, but in the end After a long time, I was confused by Locke's appearance and obeyed him. Who do you think is the mastermind besides Locke?
Hearing Jiang Yubai's words, Fei Dela immediately became angry: No wonder those bandits are getting more and more courageous recently, and they disrespected him a few times and contradicted him a few times. He was already confused by that Locke, and wanted to rebel with Locke!

"What you said is very reasonable. From this point of view, Locke is indeed very suspicious. I will find an opportunity to test his tone!" Federra's expression was gloomy, and his angry eyes were full of disappointment and fear of Locke. Confidence: My best and most trusted brother actually wants to stab him in the back, how can I keep him from being disappointed and angry?
Jiang Yubai's expression looked a bit tangled:
"If you have anything else to say, just say it."

Jiang Yubai gritted his teeth, looked at Fei Dela and said sincerely: "I suggest you ask the bandit to bring him up immediately, otherwise Locke, a scheming villain, will definitely have doubts if he finds out that I am not executed by you , maybe he disappeared before you found him. Locke is very familiar with this area, and he must have planned to fail the rebellion plan long ago, leaving a way out for himself. Once he finds out There are some clues that you have already noticed, escape is very possible!"

What she said was sincere, sincere and detailed, and even she herself was about to believe the series of nonsense things about "Locke's attempt to rebel and his plan to escape failed".Tsk tsk, Jiang Yubai has always been very proud of his excellent diplomatic skills and rich imagination...

Fei Dela frowned, Jiang Yubai's words reminded him.It is true that this possibility is not impossible, besides, it is better to get rid of the troubles in his heart as soon as possible, and if he delays for a day, he will be in more danger.

So, Phaedra called the bandit patrolling outside the hall, thought for a moment and ordered: "Go and find Locke, and tell him to discuss how to deal with the arson incident of the new adventurer, and let him come over quickly." .”

"Yes, boss!" Hearing this, the bandit backed out to find Locke without any delay, running faster than the wind.Seeing his boss's expression is ugly, his eyes are about to burst into flames, he is very angry at this granary fire incident, and he sighs to himself that the adventurer is unlucky!
Locke was quickly invited over.As soon as I saw her, I couldn't wait to taunt her, with contempt in my tone: "So it's really you! I've seen that you have no good intentions, and you are trying to use some potion of instant recovery to deceive our boss's Iron Claw! Like you Such a despicable person should be executed as soon as possible!"

The corners of Jiang Yubai's mouth twitched, trying to hold back the surging anger: That's obviously her iron claw, okay?It's obvious that you bandits took it by force!Do you want to distort the truth like this?
However, Locke's words deepened Fei Dela's suspicion, and made him believe Jiang Yubai's nonsense for a long time.

Before Jiang Yubai and Phaedra could speak, Locke spoke again, and his tone became very respectful and flattering: "Boss, how do you think you should deal with this despicable adventurer?"
