But she ......" Xu Ziyao looked at Li Shuyu, who was still screaming in the pit, and her tears fell suddenly, she could have done without dying, why did Li Shuyu have to think about it so much?

Gu Hanqing was also very uncomfortable in his heart, but there was no way to do it, all of this was Li Shuyu's own choice.

The flames in the pit were so big, they were already burned so much that they were almost unbearable just by standing nearby, and there was no water source or other things that could extinguish the fire around, so they couldn't save Li Shuyu at all.

His body had been burned to the ground, and Li Shuyu's screams became smaller and smaller, until in the end, there was no sound, and the whole person fell directly to the bottom of the pit.

Looking at the scene in front of her, a sad look suddenly appeared on Xu Ziyao's face: "I could have ...... without dying"

Gu Hanqing hugged her shoulders tightly and told her not to think too much: "All this is Li Shuyu's own choice, we have already done what we can do." ”

It's not that they didn't want to save him, but Li Shuyu didn't want to let them save him, and even wanted to drag them to death together, so she was to blame for falling to this point.

Attracted by Li Shuyu's screams, Qin Shuang looked at all this in front of him in a daze: "So what's going on?" Is she dead? ”

Gu Hanqing raised her head and looked at him with difficulty: "Well, originally she wanted to drag me to the end together, but Ziyao and I were struggling, and she fell down without standing firm......"

Qin Shuang believed what Gu Hanqing said, Li Shuyu had already shouted something like something to die together, but he thought she was just talking, but he didn't expect it to be so crazy.

He shook his head helplessly: "Forget it, since everyone is dead, there is no way to do it, let's go back quickly." ”

Taking Gu Hanqing and Xu Ziyao back to the city, Qin Shuang went back to his adoptive father alone and told him everything that happened on the trap before.

"This idiot!" Hearing that Li Shuyu burned himself to death, there was no reluctant expression on his adoptive father's face.

It's just that it's really troublesome for her to die, because it means that he has no one else to choose from besides Xu Ziyao.

"Forget it, if you're dead, you'll be dead, don't continue to care about her, I'll find a way to connect with Xu Ziyao's side and see if I can regain her trust."

The adoptive father stretched out his hand and knocked on the table, constantly circling everything that happened to Xu Ziyao from childhood to adulthood in his mind, trying to find a weakness so that Xu Ziyao could regain his trust in her.

Xu Ziyao and Gu Hanqing returned to the base, and her mind was full of the scene before Li Shuyu was burned to death, she sat on the chair and looked very uncomfortable.

Gu Hanqing could see at a glance what she was thinking, he stretched out his hand and patted her shoulder gently: "Don't think too much, it's not that we didn't try our best to save her, but we really can't save her, can we?" ”

With such a big flame, unless the two of them also had the intention of dying together, how could they save Li Shuyu from below.

Xu Ziyao didn't understand this truth, but she still felt uncomfortable when she saw a person being burned alive in front of her, especially since they had a good time together before.

She raised her head in confusion and looked at Gu Hanqing: "What did you say Li Shuyu said she was?" Why did she do such a detrimental thing to others? ”

Gu Hanqing shook his head slightly: "I don't know about this, but I think the reason why she chose this way must have her own reasons." ”

What he is most concerned about now is Xu Ziyao: "On the contrary, tell you, don't think too much about it, you have done enough for her that she doesn't know how to cherish." ”

Xu Ziyao also knew very well that she couldn't do anything at all in that situation, even if she ran to find a water source or someone to rescue, it was too late, that place was too remote.

She just felt uncomfortable, she shook her head lightly at Gu Hanqing: "Forget it, you let me rest for a while, maybe it's good if I take it easy." ”

Gu Hanqing knew that Xu Ziyao needed a time to be alone, so he didn't say anything, just went out and asked people to prepare some food for Xu Ziyao.

I stayed alone in the room and thought about it for a long time, until Gu Hanqing came in with something to eat, Xu Ziyao had almost figured it out.

Although she still didn't have much appetite, in order not to worry Gu Hanqing, Xu Ziyao reluctantly ate a few bites of food, and was about to put down her things and not eat them, when someone outside came to report, saying that her adoptive father had come to look for her.

"Why did he come here all of a sudden?" Hearing that person's report, a puzzled look suddenly appeared on Gu Hanqing's face.

Xu Ziyao shook her head lightly, and asked someone to call her adoptive father in: "I don't know, I'll ask him when he comes over, do you want to avoid it first?" ”

The relationship between the adoptive father and Gu Hanqing is a little awkward, it is better not to meet at this time, Gu Hanqing also thinks this in his heart, he quickly nodded and got up and left the room.

The adoptive father first opened his mouth to comfort Xu Ziyao and asked her not to blame herself for Li Shuyu's death: "She is also to blame, don't be too sad about her death, it's not worth it." ”

Xu Ziyao nodded and took the initiative to ask, "Father, is there something you came to me for?" ”

The adoptive father did have his own purpose when he came back this time, and comforting Xu Ziyao was just a matter of convenience, and when he heard her ask him like this, he was quiet for a few seconds.

Then he raised his head and looked outside the door: "Can you call all the people outside the door to a little farther away?" I have something private to tell you. ”

"Something private?" Hearing his words, Xu Ziyao's face showed a puzzled look.

She didn't know what her adoptive father would say to her, but since he had said so, she nodded and agreed.

No matter how you say it, it belongs to their territory, even if her adoptive father wants to be unfavorable to her, he will not be stupid enough to break over and do bad things here, so Xu Ziyao is not worried about her safety at all.

After calling all the people guarding the door down, Xu Ziyao raised her head and looked at her adoptive father: "Okay, father, you can talk about it now." ”

The adoptive father pondered for a while: "You also know that I have been developing here for many years, right? But did I never tell you what exactly I was doing here? ”
