"I... ... "
Just as the woman uttered a word, she suddenly frowned, and then her body shook violently. When she raised her head again, she saw Long Tianyu's extremely familiar expression.
"Why are you looking at me like this? What happened?"
Long Tianyu hid all his worries in his eyes, and when he saw this, he just said softly: "It's nothing, there was an accident just now, you were just knocked out."
"ha?"
Fainted
Lin Mengya rubbed her head and found that she had no impression at all.
Then she found that she was blocked from the system again. When she unblocked her, Xiaoyao asked her if she was okay with a worried look on her face.
She comforted Xiaoyao a few words, but due to the shielding, Xiaoyao didn't know what happened just now.
When she saw a lot of blackened stumps lying in a mess not far away, she was slightly startled.
"Are you going to blow up a basin?"
She asked somewhat speechlessly.
Long Tianyu stared at her and made sure that she was not abnormal before explaining to her.
"This is the Heavenly Fire Jinglei newly developed by Wuchen and the others. Originally, I wanted to use it as a secret weapon. Who knew I would encounter such a thing today."
Lin Mengya knew something about this.
After seeing the power of enemies such as Xiancheng and Tianren, Yu also began to develop new weapons to arm their armies.
It's just that she doesn't understand this knowledge, and she knows very well that if those thermal weapons of later generations appear now, it will definitely be a devastating blow to current civilization.
Therefore, she deliberately avoided this matter.
Therefore, she just nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
But after she looked around, she asked in a low voice with some confusion: "Where are Qinghu and Li Ao?"
Normally, they must have received their signal and followed behind, but when they were ambushed just now, they didn't see those people.
Could it be that they also encountered an accident
Thinking of this, Lin Mengya couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"Brother Huo, the movement here will definitely alarm Zhao Mace. You'd better go back first. We two have to go find our companions."
Huo Xiao glanced at Long Tianyu subconsciously.
Seeing that the latter didn't show any sign, he dared to leave.
"Shall we go too?"
Lin Mengya pushed Long Tianyu and led the remaining guards back towards the Sheng family.
And not long after they left, three people wearing robes embroidered with flame patterns appeared there.
"All dead?"
There was a hint of anger in the leader's tone.
This was the help he borrowed, and now, there is no one left alive!
The thought of going back and facing those crazy people gave him a headache.
"Death is death, it's just a group of dead slaves. But, where are the people we want to get rid of?"
The other person didn't care.
For them, the dead slave is just a rather convenient tool.
At worst, they just have to pay some money.
"I think they must have missed it."
The tone of the third person seemed too plain.
"Missed? Impossible! No one can survive the siege of the death slaves!"
The first one yelled a little irritably.
Unexpectedly, the third person ignored him and just walked to the only clean hollow area covered by the corpse of the dead slave.
"They must still be alive."
The third person's attitude was very determined.
No matter what the other two people think, they can only obey the orders of the third person.
"Hmph, even to get back what I lost, these two people must die!"
The first person said angrily and left quickly.
The third man fell behind. Before leaving, he turned back and took a deep look at the only empty space, with an unknown light flashing in his eyes.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu, who had no idea that the target of this attack was the two of them from the beginning, now also found some traces left by Qinghu.
"It seems that someone is really trying to kill Qinghu and the others, but they were lured away by him."
Lin Mengya touched a strange symbol on the tree trunk and whispered.
When it comes to tracking and hiding, Qinghu is definitely the best.
He was also the one who discovered the person following them in advance. For her safety, Qinghu took the initiative to lead him away.
Long Tianyu frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he guessed and said, "Maybe the people Qinghu met are not the same people we met before."
"How do you say that?" Lin Mengya asked with confusion.
Long Tianyu just shook his head.
"It's just a feeling."
In fact, the group of people who ambushed them were probably not the group who wanted to take advantage of the Zhao family.
If they were members of the Presbyterian Church, their attitude toward themselves and Ya'er should be to capture them alive. After all, they still coveted the wealth and resources of the Gong Family and the Temple.
But these people only want to kill people.
"Then the people Qinghu and the others met must have been sent by the Presbyterian Church, right?"
Judging from Qinghu's mark, that group of people still didn't pose a threat to him.
Also, the pair of men led by Qinghu were basically Jackdaw Guards trained by him personally.
Whether it is cooperation or his own ability, he is very good.
Thinking of this, she was no longer so urgent.
The two of them led people to search and talked about fortune-telling.
"I think what Huo Xiao means is that the first batch of fortune tellers who came to surrender are already in danger."
She had also interacted with fortune tellers before.
They are all poor people.
So even if they didn't survive the temptation of the Presbyterian Church in the end, she didn't think they should die.
Just through this incident, the conflict between the fortune tellers and the ancient tribe became even more irreconcilable.
This is not a good sign for those ancient people who are eager to reunite with their families.
Long Tianyu's eyes were filled with deep worry and doubt at this moment.
But when facing her, there was still no flaw.
"Well, the Presbyterian Church never really accepted them. Whether it's life or death, they can only leave it to fate."
"But what about those ancient people? Don't they want to be reunited with their relatives?"
She once asked Huo Xiao about the origins of these diviners.
Most divination people are the product of the voluntary union of parents, which means that at least these parents should miss their lovers and children.
However, why do they have to watch their loved ones being taken away, but they can only hide within the clan and not fight for it at all
She really couldn't figure this out.
Long Tianyu smiled slightly and patted her hand gently.
"Not everyone is as brave as my wife."
All the complicated emotions were suppressed by him.
Indeed, although
Although there were still some fatal problems before them, his Ya'er had never been a loser who was willing to be manipulated by fate.
Even if there is really a "person" hiding in her body, she will never let others ruin their lives.
"I think they may not be brave."
Lin Mengya suddenly lowered her voice and said.
Long Tianyu was stunned for a moment, and then the two of them looked into the darkness not far away.
"I dare to ask you two, but Gong Ya, the head of the Gong family, and His Highness the Holy Master of the Temple?"
It was an old voice that could not be distinguished as male or female.
Although the other party used the darkness as a protective cover, neither of them were ordinary people and had long seen through where the other party was hiding.
"Before asking others about their identity, should you introduce yourself first?" Lin Mengya asked coldly.
Long Tianyu narrowed his eyes, but secretly clasped his hand on the handle of his long whip.
"The head of the Gong family is right, but I am being rude."
As soon as he finished speaking, a rickety figure walked out.
Just looking at the figure, they felt that he was an elderly man.
But neither Lin Mengya nor Long Tianyu could hear each other's footsteps.
This man is definitely a master.
"I have met these two noblemen. I was abrupt before and asked you not to argue with me, a blind old woman."
blind
Lin Mengya looked at the other party carefully.
The man's whole body was wrapped in a big black robe, but he could tell that he was a thin woman.
"What do you call your mother-in-law?"
She could feel that the other party had no ill intentions toward them for the time being.
But the caution in my heart did not weaken at all.
Here, the most terrifying thing is the unidentifiable enemy.
"Master Gong, you're welcome. The old woman is just a ghost. Her last name is not worth mentioning."
It seems that the other party wants to hide his identity.
Lin Mengya had many guesses about this, but she had no intention of getting to the bottom of it. She just asked politely: "Then why did my mother-in-law stop us?"
The blind old lady hesitated for a moment and then said: "The old lady came here this time hoping to ask the Master Gong for something."
"Although Mrs. Gong is kind-hearted, she doesn't want to get into trouble. She should ask her mother-in-law to hire someone else."
Long Tianyu politely refused on her behalf.
A person who doesn't even want to reveal his identity is definitely not worthy of trust.
Besides, it was impossible for him to let Ya'er take risks.
The blind mother-in-law was not surprised. She just said helplessly: "I know His Highness's concerns, but I guarantee that there will be no danger to you two in this matter. It's just..."
"If there's nothing dangerous, why don't you do it yourself?"
Long Tianyu's eyes were blazing, and although his tone was indifferent, he pressed the mother-in-law to death and found every flaw in the other party.
He hates those who want to take advantage of Ya'er's kindness.
Lin Mengya patted her man's shoulder gently, comforted him, and then refused: "Mother-in-law should find someone else. I'm afraid I won't be able to protect myself. Since mother-in-law can find me, she must be interested in my previous one." I’ve also heard about what happened.”
She is not as kind as Long Tianyu thought.
What's more, the fact that the other party came to her door accurately at this time is enough to show that at least she was taken away from Shengjia City by the Zhao family until she was ambushed just now.
During this process, this blind mother-in-law was always there.
She could not blame him for standing by and doing nothing.
But if you want her to take action, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult.
