That familiar feeling flashed past and then vanished.
Zhang Feng was certain that he had never seen this person before.
Moreover, the person's corpse was completely livid now.
There were even ice shards hanging all over his face.
You couldn't tell anything from it.
The preservation method of this corpse compared to the way Ma Xiaotong's corpse was preserved is quite crude.
However, Zhang Feng could still distinguish that it was a middle-aged man appearing to be over fifty.
"Is this the so-called target number four? He was actually assassinated?"
Zhang Feng circled around the cross where the corpse was tied, inspecting it for any clues.
Especially since he was in the Open Celestial Eye state now, he could see the essence of many things.
But no matter how he looked at the middle-aged man's corpse, it seemed quite ordinary.
There was no value in it... whatsoever.
An absurd idea of value.
If any ordinary person saw Zhang Feng's current actions and thoughts, they would be horrified.
But Zhang Feng knew that the value of the corpse was crucial.
Because if the corpse had no value, why was it frozen?
Moreover, it was covered by such a Blinding Technique from the Evil Cultivator, even he needed the Celestial Eye to discover its presence.
"Could it be because my power hasn't recovered enough, so I can't see anything?"
Zhang Feng observed for a long time, yet found nothing special about this person.
"Could it be that this man has some special identity?"
Uncertain, for after all, Zhang Feng had just recently transmigrated here.
He didn't even know about celebrities like Mu Qianqian, let alone others.
But not knowing doesn't mean others wouldn't know!
Therefore, Zhang Feng took out his phone, snapped a photo of the cross, and intended to ask others about it.
Maybe Qin Huan, or perhaps Shen Hanshan knows more.
What if this is someone like a major leader?
However, after the shutter clicked.
Zhang Feng found that the photo he took only showed a wall built of piled stones.
"Alright then..."
Zhang Feng shrugged, feeling a bit helpless.
After all, this place was cast with some Blinding Technique by the Evil Cultivator.
Only with the Celestial Eye could he see.
But he couldn't exactly open Celestial Eye for the camera on his phone, could he?
It's not realistic, not even when he was at his peak, not even his master, the Elder Celestial Master could do it.
Since the photo couldn't capture anything, he surely couldn't take the corpse away now.
If he took it away, it would surely get discovered.
So for now, the corpse must stay here.
In two days when Shen Hanshan and the others decide to wrap things up, the corpse can be brought out and many things should become clearer by then.
But today wasn't entirely without result either.
He's already completely recorded everything in that ledger.
It's crucial evidence.
His attempts to infiltrate the enemy's inner circle finally yielded something besides information on the Evil Cultivator.
Something he could hand over to Shen Hanshan, give a simple explanation to the security management system.
He then did a quick search inside the empty room.
Seeing if there were any other written materials to prove the identity or use of the corpse.
Obviously, the result was disappointing.
It seems there's only a number four corpse here, just as simple as that.
Zhang Feng didn't linger any longer.
Retracted his Celestial Eye.
The instant the Celestial Eye was retracted, the empty room reverted to its previous dim and cramped appearance.
Zhang Feng shrugged.
This Blinding Technique, he had no way to dismantle now.
It was closely related to the Evil Cultivator.
Unless the Evil Cultivator dies, or willingly closes it, the Blinding Technique would remain.
This matter can only be shelved for now.
The urgent task now is to return to his room and recover his stamina and Inner Qi of the Dantian.
The previous barrier, and then his Earth Escape followed by the lengthy Celestial Eye sapped almost all Dantian Inner Qi he had.
That's not good because who knows when that Evil Cultivator will show up, if he doesn't quickly recover, there might be big trouble!
But just as Zhang Feng was about to focus what little Inner Qi remained to escape from here again using Earth Escape.
His heart suddenly paused!
Turned his head to look at the ladder at the other end of the corridor!
Earlier he climbed up through that ladder into the room where Chicken Bro and Dog Bro had the video with the Evil Cultivator.
And found Lin Rui's photo on the desk!
Not sure if Lin Rui's photo is still there now.
Since Lin Rui's photo was in the hands of the villains, they evidently have some intent towards Lin Rui.
If Lin Rui's photo is still there, it means Lin Rui currently isn't in any direct danger.
If the photo is gone...
He must find a way to notify Lin Rui to prepare early.
With this thought, Zhang Feng turned and walked toward the ladder, after all climbing the ladder wouldn't consume Inner Qi, so...
"Wait!"
But just then, Zhang Feng's steps halted instantly!
A strong sense of surprise filled his eyes, even shock!
With a "swish!" he turned around.
Immediately following, the Celestial Eye that just closed, was activated again!
His gaze focused instantly on the middle-aged man bound to the cross!
"This man...."
Zhang Feng was no longer concerned about the consumption when he activated the Celestial Eye now.
He rushed forward in a few steps to the middle-aged man's corpse!
"He actually resembles Lin Rui somewhat?!"
Indeed.
Earlier when Zhang Feng first saw the corpse, it had given him a sense of familiar illusion.
He always felt he'd seen this person somewhere, but he was certain he'd never met him!
Just now, as he thought of Lin Rui's photo.
Lin Rui appeared in his mind.
Now looking at the middle-aged man again.
His nose, eyes, eyebrows, ears.
At least eighty percent similar to Lin Rui!
The sense of familiarity actually came from Lin Rui.
"This...."
Instantly, Zhang Feng had a bad feeling in his heart.
Then quickly closed the Celestial Eye and took out his phone intending to call Lin Rui.
But in this sealed underground, there was no signal at all.
No choice, Zhang Feng completely exhausted the remaining Qi in his Dantian.
Used Earth Escape one last time.
Left the place quickly, following his memory, back to the entrance of his room.
Qin Huan's room next to him was still locked, Zhang Feng verified he didn't take a wrong path.
Returned to his room, locked the door.
Now Zhang Feng, for the first time since transmigrating, had completely exhausted all his Inner Qi.
So he was extremely weak, his face pale as paper.
But there was a more critical matter to attend to, so he took out his phone and dialed Lin Rui's number.
Though it was already quite late, yet it seemed Lin Rui had set a special ringtone for Zhang Feng, she quickly answered:
"Zhang Feng, what, missing me?"
Lin Rui opened with such words, regardless of whether Zhang Feng missed her, she certainly missed Zhang Feng.
But Zhang Feng was too weak now to flirt, so he directly asked:
"I've never heard you mention your father, how's uncle's health now?"
