What should have been thought of a long time ago is not incomprehensible.

At the time he saw Yue Ming, he should have thought that the person who was with him was most likely Jiang Liang. There has been no shortage of cases of cunning rabbits and dead lackeys cooking from ancient times to the present, he has entered the palace as he wished, and the next thing to do is not very glorious, throwing away these superfluous chess pieces has become a matter of course - he originally had no reason to cooperate with Xiang Nanxing all the way to the end.

chose to cover his face to commit the murder, probably in order not to let the other party notice, so as to cause extraneous branches. The biggest symbol of this "masked man" dress is nothing more than a simple paper mask. He and the "masked man" Fick are originally similar in height and size, and it is easy to pretend to be, if it weren't for this shot that shattered the mask, I'm afraid Xiang Nanxing would have thought that he died at Fike's hands until he died.

The sound of gunfire came from the direction of Nangong Qian, and one blow stopped Jiang Liang's movements, and now he didn't dare to move, so it can be seen that Nangong Qian was mostly pointing this way with a gun. Although Xiang Nanxing's vision was blocked and he couldn't see the situation over there, just knowing that she was alive already made him feel a lot more at ease, even if half a meter in front of him was Jiang Liang's muzzle, he didn't have the slightest fear.

Three people, two guns, restrain each other, and the situation presents a delicate balance. But Xiang Nanxing knew that such a stalemate would not last long, because both sides had reasons why they could not delay.

For Jiang Liang, getting rid of superfluous people can only be regarded as a side task at best, and he has more important things to do now. As for Nangong Qian, the shot just now must have hurt her more or less, otherwise it would not have been possible to delay the shooting for so long, although she was holding on to stop Jiang Liang at this time, it was difficult to say how long she could hold on.

"Everyone is smart, there is no need to fight to the death at this time." Xiang Nanxing said calmly, "If you shoot, Xiaoqian will definitely shoot too, at this distance, of course, you have a better chance of dodging, but as a prince and a daughter, is it really necessary to compare luck with my rotten life?" ”

Jiang Liang raised his eyebrows: "The person who said these words seemed to want to kill me a few seconds ago?" ”

"If a person dies, it is irreparable, and there is nothing else to worry about."

When Xiang Nanxing said this, he thought of Yue Ming behind him, and his heart ached slightly. But he immediately regained his thoughts and continued: "Although you have entered the palace as you wished, the most important thing has not yet had time to be done. Even if you have swept away the arrangement that Bai Su left in the palace, can you be sure that it has really been cleaned up? Won't there be any more trouble to deal with next? You're the one who can't afford it more than us, and what's the point of continuing the stalemate? ”

"It doesn't take me long." Jiang Liang said lightly, "If you turn your head, you can see what is the current situation of Nangong Qian, she is just relying on her last breath to hold on, and she will fall down soon." ”

When he said this, his eyes were fixed on Xiang Nanxing's face, waiting for the latter to be distracted or show a wavering expression. However, Xiang Nanxing just looked at him calmly, and his eyes did not drift in the slightest.

"You're not worried about her?" Jiang Liang asked.

"I'm worried, but I trust her more." Xiang Nanxing said, "Xiao Qian was injured, and she must have endured great pain when she fired the shot just now, and it is the same now, but her willpower is stronger than anyone else, and she will definitely be able to hold on." If I turn my head in worry because of your words, it will disturb her and give you every chance to break through. ”

He stared at Jiang Liang's eyes and said firmly: "Since she has restrained you, then I will be responsible for letting you leave, it is precisely because of believing in me that she can always persevere, and I must do it." That's the trust we have in each other. ”

A trace of complicated emotion flashed on Jiang Liang's face for a moment, and the muzzle of the gun pointed at Xiang Nanxing trembled almost imperceptibly. He stared at Xiang Nanxing, pursed his lips and nodded, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, I don't understand the amorous feelings." ”

He took a small step back, although the muzzle of the gun was still aimed at Xiang Nanxing, the oppressive force had been greatly weakened. Nangong Qian in the distance did not shoot. Since Jiang Liang made such a move, she naturally knew the meaning.

She didn't shoot, but the muzzle of the gun was still aimed at Jiang Liang, and she followed him step by step, all the way to the corner of the aisle. Jiang Liang slowly raised the muzzle of the gun, moved away from Xiang Nanxing's body, and pointed high. This was a signal to stop moving, Nangong Qian did not remove the muzzle, but her fingers also slowly moved away from the trigger.

Suddenly, she noticed that a strange smile flashed on Jiang Liang's lips! The finger that had just been removed reflexively buckled it again.

"By the way, I have one more question for you."

Jiang Liang looked at Xiang Nanxing with a smile, and his tone was as relaxed as if he asked casually, but Xiang Nanxing immediately raised his vigilance.

"If you have something to say, say it." He replied unceremoniously, and at the same time his body sank slightly, ready to dodge the attack.

"Don't be afraid, I don't plan to do it again." Jiang Liang smiled, "I just suddenly remembered what you just said." ”

"You just said that even if I have solved Bai Su's arrangement in the palace, it doesn't mean that it has really been cleaned up - is this your sincere words, or is it a reason to temporarily pile it up in order to make me waver?"

"Is there a difference between the two?" Xiang Nanxing couldn't figure out his intention to raise this question, but now the situation didn't allow him to think about it, so he had to take advantage of the situation, "That's the truth, even if you have successfully cleared a few mines, how do you make sure that those mines are all?" Even if you are only one step away from the goal, there may be pitfalls in this step. If it were me, I would have to leave some of my spare time before everything is done, so that I can deal with all kinds of unpredictable situations. ”

"Well said. I've known you for so long, and this trait of being more dangerous and calmer has not changed. ”

Jiang Liang nodded, but the expression on his face didn't seem like he really agreed with Xiang Nanxing's answer. He shook the muzzle of his gun with a smile, and quickly dodged into the corner, leaving Nangong Qian's sniper range. Before leaving, he had the opportunity to fire the last shot at Xiang Nanxing, and the latter had been guarding against this moment all along, but in the end, he simply turned around and left, and there was no other superfluous move.

Xiang Nanxing looked at his back, and suddenly felt that his steps seemed to be much brisker than just now, as if he had just unloaded the burden on his shoulders, or gave up the superfluous distractions in his heart.

Doubts are fleeting in my mind, overwhelmed by worries. Xiang Nanxing supported his body with both hands and turned around suddenly. From a distance of a few hundred meters, he clearly saw Nangong Qian, whose face was covered in blood, showing a reassuring smile towards this side.

"It's okay." - Her expression was as if she was saying something like that.

The relaxed mood drained all the strength she had temporarily mustered, Nangong Qian's shoulders suddenly collapsed, the whole person sat on the ground softly, and the combination gun in her hand fell weakly to the side. Seeing this scene, Xiang Nanxing's heart seemed to be suddenly tightened. He gritted his teeth and turned over the rubble, dragging his tired legs to run desperately, ignoring the pinprick-like pain on Zhou's body.

These few hundred meters feel longer than when you came. When the anxious Xiang Nanxing finally returned to Nangong Qian's side, the beautiful woman who was waiting for him had already closed her eyes. Most of her face was covered with blood, and her clothes were also stained with blood, looking embarrassed, and her cold appearance on weekdays was like the two of them.

Xiang Nanxing felt as if the blood in his whole body was frozen. He helped her up with trembling hands. When he looked at those closed eyes, he finally couldn't help but hug her tightly, and the tears he had held back finally broke the embankment.

"Xiaoqian, I'm sorry......" He couldn't control the trembling of his body. All words had lost their meaning, and he could only hug the girl in his arms hard, as if this would keep the time between the two of them.

At this moment, a faint voice was suddenly heard in his ears.

"Don't be like this...... Nangong Qian said angrily, "I'm really going to die......"

Xiang Nanxing raised his head in shock, but saw Nangong Qian looking at him with wide eyes, although those eyes looked a little tired, they were still the same vigorous appearance as usual.

"I'm sorry!"

Xiang Nanxing was shocked to realize that he had hugged her so tightly that she was almost suffocating. He hurriedly let go of Nangong Qian and carefully helped her to sit down at the edge of the wall.

"I see you've bled a lot......" he said worriedly. After calming down, he saw clearly that Nangong Qian's wound was actually a cut in the corner of his forehead, the wound was very deep, and he could almost see the white bones inside, but fortunately, he only rubbed it from the side, and although he shed a lot of blood, it didn't hurt the inside. Xiang Nanxing tore off the cloth and bandaged it briefly, pressing the wound to delay the bleeding, but before getting regular suture treatment, Nangong Qian couldn't move anymore.

"Bleeding a lot, dizziness, maybe a bit of a concussion, but everything else is fine." Nangong Qian frowned, feeling that the wound in the corner of her forehead was still stinging. She looked at Xiang Nanxing and smiled reluctantly: "You don't praise me?" I knew the other person's goal was me, but I had no choice...... But just as I was shooting, I saw the other guy move, and for some reason I suddenly didn't worry so much, so I immediately ducked back and almost dodged all the bullets. ”

"You're amazing." Xiang Nanxing pursed his lips, "Thanks to you." ”

Nangong Qian smiled sweetly at him and slowly closed her eyes.

"But I'm still tired, let me take a break."

Xiang Nanxing nodded, gently hugging her shoulders, his mind recalling Yue Ming's last look at him because of his words. Although he hadn't been able to understand the other party's intentions until now, he still preferred to believe that Yue Ming had relented at the last moment.

So what about Jiang Liang, why did he decide to kill the killer? Xiang Nanxing knew from the beginning that he was just one of the many back-ups he had prepared to deal with various situations, and if it came time to abandon them, this man would never hesitate.

But has that time come now?

The four entered the palace at the same time, and were immediately attacked and forced to separate. Xiang Nanxing and Nangong Qian only had a short time to explore and move forward, and at this time, it was almost impossible for Jiang Liang to completely complete the goal of this trip. Even if he really did it, just like Xiang Nanxing's previous analysis, how could he be sure that all obstacles no longer existed, so that he had the confidence to deal with the superfluous variables?

"When the cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks ......"

Nangong Qian listened to Xiang Nanxing chanting these words back and forth in a daze, and suddenly felt the arms holding her tighten suddenly. When she opened her eyes, she saw that Xiang Nanxing's face turned pale, as if she had suddenly thought of something extremely terrible.

"If that's the case...... he shook his head unconsciously, his expression frightened, "No, it's impossible......"
