Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 678 Someone is following

Yazai told me what happened just now with a heavy tone. I didn't know how to react, but I just felt that no one was to blame for this incident.Because he didn't make a choice, it is very likely that Jingsheng is not the only one who died now, but he made a choice, which caused such consequences.

No one present hoped for this outcome, but the incident has already happened, and it cannot be entirely blamed on Yazai.

But if you don't blame a single person, Hou Chengcheng probably won't be able to make it through, but Hou Chengcheng chose to blame Minister Hou.

My heart sank, it was not a good sign that Hou Chengcheng chose to blame Minister Hou, it meant that she didn't want to have anything to do with Yazai at all, so she treated him as a stranger.

This can't be blamed on Hou Chengcheng. If someone hurts Miss Si, even if it's not intentional, or even to save her, I can't forgive it. At most, I can only do it to the extent of a stranger.

"Chang'an, what do you think I should do?" Yazai was in a very depressed mood.

With his hands in his hair, he said he didn't know, he didn't intend to kill Jingsheng, but when the arrow was fired, it was too late for him to stop the mechanism, he watched Jingsheng push Minister Hou away , and die.

He felt it was all his problem.

"Baby." I called him, "Have you ever thought that if it weren't for you, maybe all of us would have died?"

Yazai shook his head and said that there is no what if, and no one thinks about what if this happened, because everything is unknown, maybe if he doesn’t move the mechanism, the mechanism will stop in a better way .

I don't agree with his statement. I only said that the mechanism was about to lose control at that time. I have seen the holes in the mechanism on the eaves. If they were all fired, we would not be able to escape even if we had the ability to reach the sky, unless we knew the ground escape technique.

Yazai is still depressed, I know there is no way to persuade him, because this is a life, or a life that has just been full of hope!

I don't try to persuade him any more. He has to digest this matter. In fact, not only him, we are all in a bad mood. I am also blaming myself. Yazai, will it be possible to stop Yazai from using the mechanism, and will it be possible to save Jingsheng's life?
But everything is just like what Yazai said, it's what if, now none of us can figure out what it would be like if Yazai didn't move the mechanism, so no one can speak for Yazai.

Yazai sighed, saying that he didn't care about Hou Chengcheng ignoring him because of this matter, he just didn't want to be reconciled, he always felt that something was wrong, even if he chose the wrong one, it shouldn't be Jingsheng and the others who ejaculated The location of the agency.

"Wait, what did you say?" I immediately grasped the point of the words.

Yazai looked at me, said it again curiously, and asked me what's wrong?
I clenched my fists and asked him to think carefully about what he found strange. What happened?
"After I pushed the mechanism, I heard the sound of crossbow arrows. Looking back, I saw the scene of Jingsheng pushing Minister Hou away. I don't even know what happened. Chang'an, do you believe it?"

Yazai's voice was helpless, and his eyes filled with tears, but they didn't fall.

I knew he was worried, worried that I thought it was an excuse for his irresponsibility, but I nodded: "I believe it."

As soon as he said this, I knew what I was thinking, and told him not to talk any more. After Lao Yan and the others finished collecting the ashes, I gathered everyone together, and then slowly expressed my thoughts: Someone is following us.

Someone is definitely following us!

Lao Yan and the others didn't quite believe it, because they didn't see anyone at all.

But I firmly believed that this was the case, so I suggested that Lao Yan carefully inspect the crossbow arrows that shot Jingsheng to death.

Because Kunbu and the others pulled out Jingsheng's crossbow bolts and did not burn them together, so they are still together at this moment.

Lao Yan picked up the crossbow with half-belief, and I picked up the crossbow shot from the terracotta warriors and horses everywhere. After comparing the hatchback, I found that the two crossbows were completely different!
Although the appearance looks very similar, the crossbow used to shoot Jingsheng is more advanced, and it cannot be the craftsmanship of thousands of years ago.

"Old Yan, do you believe it now?" I put the two crossbow bolts together and motioned them to look.

Lao Yan's expression changed instantly: "Someone killed Jing Sheng just under our noses? But we don't know anything?"

Lao Yan found it unbelievable, but I thought of those black balls that Miss Qiu inexplicably released, and the figure I just saw that disappeared in an instant.

It all feels weird.

Speaking of this, I thought of one thing: "Has any of you seen Miss Qiu?"

Lao Yan looked around and seemed to realize that Miss Qiu was gone. I felt even more strange, and asked if they didn't notice that she was gone?
Lao Yan glanced at Hou Chengcheng, who was holding the ashes, and I understood it instantly.When Jingsheng had an accident, no one would pay attention to other things. Even if they found out, they would forget about it in an instant. Now that they have calmed down a little, they only remembered it.

I exhaled and asked, is Miss Qiu also in danger?
Just now I thought it was Miss Qiu who left by herself, but if a group of people who disappeared followed us, it is very possible that Miss Qiu could be taken away without a trace.

Lao Yan nodded, telling me not to analyze any more, it's important to find Miss Qiu first.

I hummed, indeed, those people were able to kill Jingsheng silently, and almost caused us internal strife. Their methods are not ordinary. At this time, we should take finding Miss Qiu as the main task.

Hou Chengcheng stood next to us with the ashes in his hands, and nodded expressionlessly when he heard the words: "Go and find, I want to stay here with my brother."

With Jingsheng gone, she no longer has to worry about a title.

Minister Hou's face was not quite right, maybe it was because of Hou Chengcheng's title, but he never changed it, and promised that Hou Chengcheng would let Jingsheng return to Yanjing as a secret martyr of 701, and he would call it his fault outside. son.

Hou Chengcheng didn't have any more demands. Everyone knew that this was the only thing Minister Hou could do.

Rather than giving Jingsheng more status, it is better to let him be buried safely. If he insists on the identity of Minister Hou's son, he may not even die in peace.

Minister Hou was very considerate.

"Xiao Cheng, you don't want to stay here alone." Minister Hou finally asked.

Hou Chengcheng shook his head stubbornly, and said no, I will stay here, my brother just left, his soul must still be here, I want to accompany him.

Minister Hou looked at us begging for help, but how can we persuade him?
This was a fatal blow to Hou Chengcheng. She had just recovered her memory and encountered such a thing, and no one could accept it.

Minister Hou sighed and said, "Forget it, but you must put your own safety first, and you also know that if Jingsheng... if he is, he will definitely not let you get hurt."

Hou Chengcheng nodded expressionlessly, just sitting there holding Jingsheng's ashes, the whole person seemed to have lost his soul.

Yazai wants to persuade, but now he is the most unsuitable person to persuade, so he can only dismiss this idea!
