Chapter 2390 Confirmation Required!
"Fake corpse? You mean... this corpse is fake, not the body of the First Emperor?"
After hearing Qiao Yejing's inference, Lin Chen's eyes bulged and he was extremely shocked.
But he changed his mind and found something wrong.
"I don't quite agree with your inference. Regardless of who the final winner between the First Emperor and the ancient strange man is... let's just say who can sneak in here unscathed and place this fake corpse here!
Does this person exist? Can he really do such a thing?
From the way we came, I dare to conclude... before us, no one has ever been here!"
Qiao Yejing looked at the corpse thoughtfully for a while, and then said in a deep voice:
"What you said makes sense.
Indeed, no one has been here for more than two thousand years... If someone could sneak in here a year ago, or a few months ago, and leave a brand new corpse here... I obviously don't believe it."
Lin Chen said calmly:
"So, your second inference does not exist. Then, the truth is likely to be the first situation you mentioned just now!
Although the legendary Dingshen Pearl was not placed in the mouth of this corpse, it might have been placed in other parts? Even, the bead might have been placed directly in the body of this corpse?
Didn't you just say that? The emperor of the ages was a very ruthless person. He must have expected that one day in the future, someone might really find this place and want to get his Dingshen Pearl!
So, he didn't stop at nothing and simply swallowed the magical bead into his stomach!"
As soon as these words came out, Qiao Yejing's eyes lit up, and then she immediately buried her head and pondered again.
And Lin Chen took advantage of her thinking time to wink at Ye Ninghan.
In Lin Chen's eyes, whether this is the Nine Earth Palace or not, whether this corpse is the First Emperor or not... he doesn't care at all!
He only cares about one thing... that is, he can't let these ambitious people take anything here out of the outside world!
So, no matter what these enemies are planning, Lin Chen will never let their conspiracy succeed!
But... now because of Ye Ninghan's personal safety, Lin Chen will not turn against Qiao Yejing for the time being. But once the time is right, he will do his best to bury these people's ambitions here!
After a while.
Qiao Yejing seemed to have figured out something, so she raised her head and said seriously:
"Lin Chen, I will take the risk to check this body now. If there is any unexpected situation later, you will respond to it and don't worry about me!"
Lin Chen nodded without objection. In his heart, he really hopes that Qiao Yejing will have some "accidents".
Then.
Qiao Yejing urged her internal strength to attach a layer of protective qi to her hands.
After doing this basic protective measure, she carefully stretched her hand to the body and groped it carefully...
After a while, Qiao Yejing finished the search. She stood up with a puzzled look on her face!
Although her actions did not trigger any terrible mechanism, her confused expression still made Lin Chen guess her search results.
"What? Didn't find it?"
Qiao Yejing nodded and replied: "Yes, I didn't find the Dingshen Pearl on this body."
Lin Chen said calmly: "You just searched outside the body, but I said before... that magical pearl is likely to be inside this body!"
After hearing this, Qiao Yejing still shook her head and said with some disappointment:
"That pearl is not in his body either. I have a special method... to identify whether the pearl is in the body of this body.
I have checked everything just now, and there is no sign that... that pearl exists in his body!
So, although we have overturned the previous inference together, it seems now... maybe this body is really fake!
At least, this possibility exists."
Lin Chen frowned, still unwilling to believe that someone would arrive here earlier than them.
"I can't believe this inference at all... If someone came here earlier than us, why didn't he just take away Xu Fu's golden jade clothes, or take away the calming beads that should have been placed here?
Why did he go to the trouble of putting a brand new corpse here to confuse the real with the fake?
Isn't he trying to cover up his mistake? Or is there no point in him doing this?"
At this time, Qiao Yejing also showed a confused look.
"I don't know... Logically speaking, I don't believe that someone will arrive earlier than us.
And as you said, even if someone arrives earlier, what is his purpose?
He can neither really confuse others nor achieve the purpose of confusing others by doing this... I really don't understand."
Lin Chen pondered for a while and said again:
"Okay, instead of wasting energy to think about this impossible inference, why not think about what we should do now?
From the current situation, we must find the Calming Pearl!
Because the Calming Pearl is more precious than the Golden Jade Cloth, and it has the effect of keeping youth forever!"
Lin Chen's reminder made Qiao Yejing suddenly realize!
"Wait! What did you just say?"
Lin Chen was puzzled: "I said...the most important thing now is to find the magical bead? What's wrong? Am I right?"
Suddenly, Qiao Yejing laughed. There was a touch of calmness in her smile, but also a touch of ruthlessness!
"Ha! What you said is very good! As of now, the most important thing is to find the bead!
Judging from the current situation, as long as we confirm whether the star is in the body of that ancient strange person... we can figure out what we want to do! "
As soon as these words came out, Lin Chen instantly understood Qiao Yejing's intention.
"You mean... let's fight back now? Then fight with those people above, and then grab the body of the ancient strange man and examine it?"
Qiao Yejing replied forcefully: "Yes! This is the only way to determine the whereabouts of the Concentration Pearl!"
At this time, Lin Chen put forward another key hypothesis.
"Then what if... the corpse above still doesn't have the Calming Bead in its body?"
Lin Chen thought this question would stump Qiao Yejing, but she gave herself a firm look and said in a deep voice: "If the Calming Pearl is not in the corpse above, then it can only be placed There!"
