"Sir, what do you mean?"
Qin Shi was silent for a moment and shook his head: "Anyway, calm down first and don't be impulsive if anything happens. I will help you. Let's go in."
After listening in a fog, Tong Tong obviously didn't understand what Qin Shi meant, but because he was thinking about Tong Zixin in his heart, he didn't think much about it, nodded and pushed the door open.
But as soon as the door was opened, the scene that greeted him made him froze on the spot, unable to take a step forward, as if he was stupid: "Why, how could this happen?"
I saw that this desolate house was in a mess, as if it had been raided by bandits. It was full of dust, fallen leaves, and all the ancient trees had been chopped off. Tables, chairs, and furniture were scattered on the ground. And these are not the most important. The most important thing is that Tong Tong actually saw bright red blood stains under the rhizome of an ancient tree. The blood stains were not sticky yet and were slightly hot. From this, it can be seen that they were caused not long ago. of.
"Tong Qing, Zi Xin...!"
Tong Tong suddenly came to his senses, and immediately ran into the house, and then rummaged through the rooms. Every guest room here was as dirty as the house.
After a while, he searched almost every corner of the room, but he still didn't see the figure he was missing in his heart. This made him feel more and more uneasy. He knelt down from the house and kept touching with his hands. Digging in the loess all over the ground, it seemed that even if he dug three feet, he would still find Tong Qing and Tong Zixin.
This made Qin Shi and Xiaomi Cai feel slightly heavy from behind. Qin Shi sighed. The scene he least wanted to see finally appeared. In fact, when he first arrived outside the house, out of habit over the years, he used The power of the soul probed it, which was why he frowned and told Tong Tong to stay calm.
He took a few steps forward: "Stop digging, they are not here."
"Why, how could this be like this...!" Tong Tong Liu Shen Wuzhu, the whole person was in despair. It could be seen that this had a huge impact on him: "Why, why, we three brothers and sisters have experienced so much, and it is not easy to be stable. Life, why does heaven still treat us like this...!"
"It's the Zhao family, it must be the Zhao family, it's Zhao Tianyun's revenge." He murmured alone, his voice was not very loud, but he made great movements. He suddenly stood up and faced outside the house. Just rush out.
Qin Shi could see the look of death on his face and stopped him: "What are you going to do?"
"Sir, get out of the way. I'm going to the Zhao family. I'm going to save them."
Qin Shi frowned: "It's just you? You know very well that with your ability, it's hard to say whether you can enter the Zhao family, let alone go to the Zhao family to save people. If you go, you will only die!"
"Yes, I will go even if I die!" But unexpectedly, Tong Tong's voice suddenly rose: "The three of us brothers and sisters have said that we will die together even if we die. Now that their lives are uncertain in the Zhao family, I must Go and save them. If you can't save them, I will die with them! Sir, get out of the way!"
Qin Shi's heart trembled. He could tell that Tong Tong was definitely not joking. He was moved by this feeling, but he still didn't step back: "What if, I say, you don't have to die?"
"Huh? Sir, what do you mean?"
"Before coming in, I told you not to be impulsive. No matter what you encounter, I will help you. Since you also said that this matter still happened because of me, then I will naturally have to bear the consequences of my sins. Not to mention, I also want to meet this girl with whom I have never met but have a lot of fate." Qin Shi said with a faint smile.
But his smile, to Tong Tong, was like a glimmer of hope in the dark abyss. He said excitedly: "Sir, you mean, you want to help me, you want to help me rescue Tong Qing." , rescue Zixin?"
Qin Shi did not rush to agree: "Yes, but the premise is that you can calm down and don't do impulsive things. If it is really the Zhao family, then they must have taken Tong Qing and Zixin away for revenge. You, if you are also controlled by them, they will have no worries. It is also possible for Zixin to kill Tong Qing at that time. Although I can promise to help you rescue people from the Zhao family, but if you want to snatch people from the Palace of Hell, I I don’t have the ability either.”
Qin Shi's words were like a huge stone firmly pressing down on Tong Tong. With his unique kingly aura, Tong Tong nodded quietly: "I know, I won't be impulsive. As long as I can save Zixin , you can call me whatever you want."
Although he said he was calm, he still couldn't suppress the anxiety in his heart. He hesitated and asked again: "But sir, what should we do? The Zhao family has a very high status in the Nightless City. Not to mention the tight defenses, the head of the Zhao family is even more... He has the top level of Heaven and three elders who are in the realm of Nine Heavens. If an outsider wants to sneak in and save people, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky."
"Don't worry, just wait here. It's not difficult to enter the Zhao family. If not, someone will come to invite us." However, Qin Shi was very calm about this. He actually sat down cross-legged from the house alone and closed his eyes. repose.
This action made Tong Tong even more anxious, but he did not dare to say anything because he knew in his heart that without Qin Shi's help, there was absolutely no hope for him. If he went to Zhao's house, he would have no choice but to do what he did before. As he said, there is no way to save Tong Qing and Tong Zixin, we can only die with them.
The waiting process was very painful. In fact, it didn't take long. It was only three or two hours. For a cultivator, this was a long time in the command room, but Tong Tong seemed to have spent centuries in the courtyard. Keep shaking.
Looking at him, Xiaomi Cai was confused. She thought she was noisy enough, but she didn't expect that there was someone in the world who was more noisy than her. In the end, she yelled at the anxious Jiao: "Hey, I'm talking about you. , can you be a little more honest? You keep shaking and shaking here, are you tired of it? "
Tong Tong was not happy when he heard this. In the past, he would definitely not care about Xiaomi Cai, but what a joke, now his younger brothers and sisters have been taken away, and their lives and deaths are unknown. He immediately said angrily: "Do you think I want to ?Do you know? For me now, it is suffering, suffering!"
"Didn't my father promise you to help you rescue your little sister?" Xiaomi Cai pinched her waist and said.
The two of them kept bickering, and Qin Shi, who had always been calm and composed, finally opened his black eyes with a helpless look on his face. At this moment, his peripheral vision flashed, and his body flashed in front of the two of them.
boom!
Then, there was a crisp sound, and a sharp arrow came through the air, and he caught it with his bare hands. This frightened Xiaomi Cai and Tong Tong and shut up quickly. Xiaomi Cai said angrily: "Dad, are you okay?"
"You two, just be quiet for a while and I'll be fine." Qin Shi snorted angrily, then turned around and said to Tong Tong: "Okay, don't worry, I told you a long time ago that I will Someone has come to invite us to Zhao’s house, let’s leave now.”
"Really?" Tong Tong was overjoyed at first, then he was stunned for a moment and said in confusion: "Sir, this person you are talking about is...!"
"See for yourself." Qin Shi handed the sharp arrow to Tong Tong, and then Tong Tong discovered that on the arrowhead, there was a piece of kraft paper with a line of small words scrawled on it.
"When night falls, if you don't want to collect the bodies of Tong Qing and Tong Zixin, just bring that brat who helped you to the Zhao Mansion!"
After reading the letter, Tong Tong suddenly realized that this was not an invitation. This was clearly the ultimatum given to them by Zhao Tianyun. He looked at Qin Shi with a worried look on his face: "Sir, no, this is clearly the Hongmen Banquet, this Zhao family The power is huge, and Zhao Tianyun suffered your losses outside, then the Zhao family must be a dragnet now, just waiting for you to get through. Aren't we just falling into their trap?"
"What if that's not the case? Do you want to collect the bodies of Tong Qing and Zixin?" Qin Shi said bluntly, causing Tong Tong to fall silent.
Immediately, he patted Tong Tong on the shoulder: "Don't worry, if you want to kill me, Qin Shi, ordinary people can't do it. You have to face what you have to face. First ensure the safety of Tong Qing and Zixin, and then, Feel free to adapt."
He wanted to speak at first, but due to the safety of Tong Qing and Tong Zixin, Tong Tong sighed and nodded, and followed him: "But sir, if you are really in danger, you must save your life. No need." Don't worry about me. If you can, I just hope that you can help me rescue my little sister. God is unfair. She has suffered too much in her life."
Qin Shi shook his head at him with relief: "Since I promised to help you, I will definitely not let any of the three of you get into trouble. Don't worry."
After that, without giving Tong Tong a chance to speak, he and Xiaomi Cai got up and left the desolate house, heading towards the Zhao family's mansion.
Fang Jiu, who was distracted by Tong Tong, looked at the frail figure in front of him. From Qin Shi's body, he seemed to feel an invisible force supporting him, telling him to tighten his fists and follow him.
The Zhao family's residence is located on the busiest street in the Evernight City. It occupies a very large area. Viewed from the outside, it is the size of a deserted town and is very gorgeous.
"The Zhao family really underestimates them." Qin Shi said in his heart.
And the blood wizard's voice also sounded: "Little guy, you have to think about it, don't forget the purpose of your trip. The Zhao family is the largest family in the Evernight City, and the strength of the family leader is at the top of the sky. If If you provoke them, there will no longer be a place for you in the Evernight City, and by then, it will be really difficult for you to find the Heart of the Desert."
Qin Shi took a deep breath. He understood what the blood wizard said, but he was struggling in his heart. He couldn't just watch what happened to Tong Qing and Tong Zixin, and finally said helplessly: "The matter is over. What's the use of saying that? I've already promised Tong Tong. I don't want to slap myself in the face and ruin my reputation over the years. Let's take it one step at a time. As for the Heart of the Wasteland, I must get it. , in the end, if it really doesn’t work, I will do whatever it takes, even if it’s a robbery, I will get it!”
