Some can be stepped on
Although Yu Siqi did tell Father An a lot of 'secrets' hidden in his heart, for some reason, some words were still somewhat 'modified' after they came out of his mouth. β§ pineβ β Xiao β§ said
At first, he cared too much about his feelings to notice it directly. Later, when he realized this, he realized that if he changed his words now, he was afraid that he would have to start from scratch again.
However, even this 'cut-out' version still made Father Ann resentful of him.
"First of all, I want to thank you for placing so much trust in me. Secondly, I would say that you should indeed be a little more cautious. Knowing that the wind and snow are too big, why do you insist on moving forward? β
"Maybe it was because I had a bit of a fever in the head."
Yu Siqi already knew that there was no way to go back and correct his 'lie', so he simply continued with this topic.
"I guess it's probably not just for such 'simple' reasons."
Father Ann leaned sideways slightly, and Yu Siqi noticed that he seemed to be observing the other people's reactions. After seeing that the others were still immersed in the atmosphere of Gong Chen's 'exaggerated story', Father An lowered his voice and said, "I suggest that you keep it a secret from the others for the time being, because I am not sure how Wan Jie will react to the surprise after hearing about her. β
"Does the priest think she's still alive?"
Yu Siqi asked in a low voice.
"That's not really what we should be thinking about right now. Whatever her purpose is, and no matter what form she actually appears. From what is known now, it seems that we are not yet fully perceived as a threat by her. That's what I'm thankful for. You know, if we face such an enemy, it may be that only the presence of our lord will allow us to return home alive. β
Because he noticed that Gong Chen was already coming this way, Father An spoke relatively quickly when he said these words. But fortunately, Yu Siqi's hearing is not bad. So, the general content is still a lot of things.
It's just that there's no way to continue the conversation.
"I said, you master and apprentice won't be thinking about something 'unspeakable' again, right? Ah Zhen asked me to tell you that it's almost time to go, and Ah Gui has already rested. β
Gong Chen stared at Father An and Yu Siqi with suspicious eyes for a few moments, and then conveyed the relevant information.
"What did Wan Jie say over there?"
Father An seemed very casual, and he was not at all 'heavily guarded' like Yu Siqi.
"She said she got the access card to the armory, and we could leave at any time."
Gong Chen held up a card in his hand and said, "She has collected a lot of cards for this thing." β
"What do you want so much to do?"
Yu Siqi finally let down his guard and turned his head to ask. At this moment, Gong Chen instantly became proud.
"Haha, worthy of being my good buddy, actually asked me the same question."
Gong Chen pinched his voice, imitated Wan Jie's speech, and said, "Because the patterns on each card are very special, I put them away." β
"I didn't expect her to be a collector."
Yu Siqi was a little surprised by this fact.
"Not really. According to her own account, she collected about six or seven hundred sets of stone tablet paintings that year. Unfortunately, after she was resurrected, she found that she was not in her pantry. And judging by the degree of destruction of the door lock, it must have been stolen in the intervening time after her death and before her resurrection."
Gong Chen kept telling Yu Siqi the story about Wan Jie, which obviously aroused Father An's interest. The latter smiled and said, "It looks like you've become friends with her!" β
"Of course, hasn't my Gongchen always been a 'heartthrob'?"
Maybe only a thick-skinned person like Gong Chen would have the courage and guts to say such a thing!
Yu Siqi turned around and began to walk towards the large army.
The process of leaving Xinggang was much more boring than Yu Siqi imagined, just holding Wan Jie's hand one by one.
Moreover, the '19th derailment incident' that he had been thinking about in his heart did not have a clue to investigate. This made him somewhat concerned after leaving.
However, since the armory is already close at hand. So, for the time being, like everyone else, he set his mind on the main goal.
In this way, it took them less than an hour, just before the sun set, to reach the door of the armory.
By this time they were already a little hungry, and the food they had eaten earlier had almost been exhausted during the journey. Hunger and craving, two very important physiological needs, have begun to influence their judgment.
Not to mention, several of them are still struggling to support themselves there, with a very tired look.
"So, how do we get in next?"
After Gong Chen walked around the periphery, he didn't find any existence like a gate.
"The door had to be opened from the inside, and we had to go sideways. Can you pay attention to the bricks on the ground? Some are treadable. β
Wan Jie, who had been looking down at the ground, gave a hint.
"Is that what you're talking about?"
Yu Siqi seemed to have found a piece of existence that matched the description in Wan Jie's mouth, just as he stepped on it with his foot while explaining this matter to others.
His instincts told him that something bad was about to happen.
Out of caution, he stepped lightly and immediately shrank back.
I saw that where he was standing, several bright rays of light appeared, shaking the thin air into a buzzing sound.
Yu Siqi didn't want to think about what would have happened if he hadn't shrunk back.
In fact, Gong Chen had already told him the answer with practical actions.
Taking out the firearm that had been confiscated from his pocket, Gong Chen casually picked out the most unpleasant one and threw it into those rays.
In the blink of contact, the guns began to dissolve and vaporize at high speed.
"What a murderous trap, you almost killed us."
After seeing the test results, Gong Chen immediately made a relative accusation against Wan Jie.
"I'll admit it was my negligence, but since you're all safe, it's nothing. You know, when I came here, I never walked through the door. β
In addition to explaining, Wan Jie did not forget to mention her identity, which made people feel that she really cared about the vanity of the past. It's just that Gong Chen doesn't seem to be very satisfied with her 'perfunctory' attitude.
"You can't just ignore the 'facts' that have already happened just because 'no accident happened', right?"
"Before you want to accuse others, I suggest you wash your ears. Did I tell you to step on it? No, I don't. I just said 'some are something to step on'. β
In the face of Gong Chen's accusation, Wan Jie didn't take it to heart at all.
Not to mention that she used the 'vague' definition between words to counter Gong Chen's army.
Now, it's Gong Chen's turn to be deflated.
