Luo Ziran and Qin Xiusheng were tied to a pillar by the townspeople, waiting for the execution of the stake.

Hearing Luo Ziran's words, Qin Xiusheng nodded vigorously and said, "Ziran, I won't say anything with you." What I owe you in this life is only to pay it back in the next life. ”

While the two were talking, the mayor beckoned to the onlookers, and several townspeople with torches walked through the crowd and walked in front of Qin Xiusheng and Luo Ziran.

The mayor nodded, turned to look at Xiao Qi, "My lord, you will personally execute the burning at the stake." ”

Xiao Qi's face was already crying, and she tried her best to persuade the mayor, but it was useless.

"No way. If I put them to death, I will kill myself. A flash of despair flashed in Xiao Qi's eyes. In her opinion, it was she who harmed Qin Xiusheng and Luo Ziran. If there is no way to save them, Xiao Qi is not willing to live with this guilt.

Hearing Xiaoqi's words, the mayor couldn't help but be stunned. Although he thought in his heart that Xiao Qi had been cast with magic to become what he is now. However, he did not dare to take risks. If Xiao Qi really followed after Qin Xiusheng and Luo Ziran were executed, then the entire town would be finished.

"My lord, what is so good about them that you should protect them even at the cost of giving up the residents of the whole town?" the mayor of the town frowned, looked at Xiao Qi and asked.

Xiao Qi didn't answer, she just shook her head slightly, and at the same time looked at the two people who were tied to the pillar with burning eyes. There was no sparkle in her eyes, and she was clearly ready to follow the two of them.

Seeing Xiao Qi's eyes, the mayor couldn't help but hesitate. If Xiao Qi dies because of this, then he doesn't know how to explain it to the other townspeople.

For a moment, the mayor was in a dilemma. On the one hand, the agitated townspeople shouted for the execution of the stake, while on the other hand, Xiaoqi was forced to die.

"Mayor, when will the stake be burned?" asked the townsfolk with torches, seeing that the mayor had not given the order for a long time.

The mayor's heart was full of hesitation, he gritted his teeth vigorously, and finally made a decision.

"Suspend the burning at the stake, lock the two of them up first, and talk about it later. "The mayor doesn't plan to take the risk in the end, if he forcibly executes the stake and forces Xiaoqi to death because of this, then the whole town will be finished.

Hearing the mayor's words, Qin Xiusheng and Luo Ziran breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. They thought they were going to die, but they didn't expect a turnaround at the last moment.

Seeing that the mayor of the town had suspended the trial, Xiao Qi was also relieved. She wanted to run to Qin Xiusheng's side, but was stopped by the mayor of the town.

"My lord, the burning at the stake can be put on hold, but I can't let you have too much contact with them anymore. The mayor's attitude was very tough, firmly blocking Xiao Qi's body, "You have been bewitched by them too much, and you can't deepen it any further." ”

Xiao Qi hesitated, but finally stopped. The mayor was able to suspend the trial, which was already the best outcome for her. As long as there is time, she can find a way to rescue the two of them. If the mayor is forced to do it now because of impulse, it will be more than worth the loss.

Under the arrangement of the town mayor, Qin Xiusheng and Luo Ziran were locked up again. The two sat back to back on the ground, very happy in their hearts. It was not easy for them to be able to save a life this time.

"Brother Qin, what are we going to do next?" Although he successfully retrieved a life, Luo Ziran was not satisfied with this, "Although they have decided not to judge us for the time being, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not in the future." And, we don't have time to waste here anymore. ”

Qin Xiusheng nodded approvingly, and the time of the acupuncture conference agreed with Su Jin was getting closer and closer. They must go to the village where the Gongsun clan lives in seclusion to find the "Green Sac", and learn the essence of it, and defeat Su Jin at the acupuncture conference, only in this way can Lin Xiran be rescued from Su Jin's clutches.

"There is not even a window in this room, and the door is guarded by the townspeople twenty-four hours a day, so it is impossible for us to escape. Qin Xiusheng took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and analyzed the current situation, "If you want to escape, the two of us alone won't work at all. However, we are not without a chance. ”

Hearing Qin Xiusheng's words, Luo Ziran pondered for a moment, and asked hesitantly, "You mean Xiaoqi, we have to wait for her to come to the rescue?"

Qin Xiusheng nodded and said, "Now that the matter is over, I can only pin my hopes on her." You also saw it when I was in the square, if it weren't for Xiao Qi's death, I'm afraid we would have been burned to ashes by now. I think Xiaoqi will definitely find a way to save us. ”

Luo Ziran frowned slightly, "You mean we don't do anything and pin all our hopes on others?"

For Luo Ziran, he has always liked to take his fate into his own hands. Falling into the current situation, he didn't do anything and pinned all his hopes on others, which he couldn't accept for a while.

Qin Xiusheng raised his hand, patted Luo Ziran lightly on the shoulder, shook his head and said, "It's not all like that. There is no escape from the current situation with our strength alone. Therefore, we must have a good rest, and we must seize the opportunity created by Xiaoqi for us. ”

Luo Ziran sighed helplessly, and then nodded lightly. This feeling of handing over his fate to others made him uncomfortable, but he couldn't think of any other way but to accept it silently.

"Brother Qin, if Xiao Qi doesn't come, what should we do?"

Hearing Luo Ziran's words, Qin Xiusheng shook his head vigorously, "Impossible, she will definitely come to save us, we must believe her." Just like she believed in us. ”

Luo Ziran was silent, he thought back to last night. Qin Xiusheng wanted to probe her with a silver needle, and there was a great possibility of triggering the plague in her body. However, Xiao Qi did not hesitate at all, and resolutely chose to believe them.

Nodding helplessly, under the infection of Qin Xiusheng, Luo Ziran also decided to believe Xiao Qi.

While the two were talking, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open. Qin Xiusheng turned his head to look at the door, and found that the person who walked in was wearing a mask, and he was still carrying a basket in his hand, which seemed to be bringing them food.

In order to wait for Xiao Qi's rescue, Qin Xiusheng had already decided to maintain his physical strength. When he saw someone delivering food, he reached out and patted Luo Ziran on the shoulder, and said in a relaxed tone, "Ziran, it seems that they don't plan to starve us." ”

As he spoke, Qin Xiusheng stood up and took the basket from the hand.
