Chapter 406: Tailgating
When you are in the whirlpool, even if you want to stagnate, the undercurrent will take you to unknown places. Xia Solstice is in such a state now, although he really wants to take his fate into his own hands, but the two forces he faces are like two mountains in front of him, and he can't see where the right exit is.
The latest news heard from the noisy guests downstairs, the city gate of Anyang City has sent more troops to defend, and the inspection of pedestrians entering and leaving is becoming more and more strict, and if there is a slight mistake, it will be directly locked up and brought back for questioning, and it will be sent out after all suspicions are removed.
In this way, it is basically impossible for Xia Zhi to get through the trick. After missing the opportunity to get out of the city, the entire Anyang City has now become a huge locked cage, and Xia Zhi is trapped in it, not to mention that there is no hope of freedom, and even his own safety is difficult to guarantee.
Luo Ying was worried, [It's not a way to hide like this, they will come to the door sooner or later, and it won't be so easy to get out when the time comes. 】
I don't know which side of the force Luo Ying is referring to. However, speaking of which, both parties coveted the formula of the antidote itself, and the life or death of the summer solstice was not within their consideration, it was just a crime. is like the Luo family's manor where blue snowflakes were planted, just like Luo Shan's father who held the formula of the feather. Speaking of which, the feather is really a poison, as long as it is involved with people and things, it will not end well.
[Otherwise, destroy the formula of the antidote, so that you can stay out of the matter? ] Xing Junyi said. Without the antidote, everything will be back on track, and the summer solstice will naturally be able to get out.
[Naive, they are not as easy to fool as three-year-olds, even if I destroy the formula in front of them, the other party will wonder if it is the only original. And, I didn't want it to be ruined with the recipe I found so hard. Xia Zhi thought of Bai Linfeng's good intentions, spent so much effort to develop the antidote, and put this significant responsibility into his own hands, he must not give up halfway. Not to mention others, the poison of the feathers on Luo Shan's body has not yet been resolved. Although he still has the last antidote to the feather in his hand, if something happens, he will not gamble with Roshan's life.
[Then what are you going to do?] Peek-a-boo will always be found. Xing Junyi just kindly proposed, strictly speaking, he can get out smoothly now, there is no need to play such a worrying game with them.
[......] Xia Zhi was silent, if she could think of a good way, she wouldn't be still nesting here.
[Since you can't get out of the city, you should find a safe enough place to hide. Luo Ying answered.
What are your thoughts? Xia Zhi asked, does Luo Ying have any other doorway?
Luo Ying paused for a moment before he spoke, [Xia Zhi, don't you have some friendship with the Chengwang Mansion? In Anyang City, there are those who can compete with the power of Old Man Wu, and the Chengwang Mansion is considered a family. Do you feel they can be trusted? 】
Chengwangfu is indeed the best choice, Old Man Wu is afraid of his power, and the killer organization is also difficult to defend tightly, if he can hide in Chengwangfu, at least he can ensure personal safety. It's not that I haven't thought about it on the summer solstice, but it's not the last moment, and I don't want to involve more people. What's more, I can't bear the attitude of the son of the world, so I decided not to take risks.
But now this situation is almost at the end of the road, and if we wait any longer, there will be no change, but it will get worse and worse. Time was pressing, so she couldn't think too much about it, so she had to make a decision to gamble, [Then let's go to King Cheng's Mansion to gamble!] 】
The three of them hit it off, and prepared the carriage early in the morning to go to King Cheng's mansion. Luo Ying caught the car, Xia Zhi and Xing Junyi stayed in the carriage, and rushed all the way to King Cheng's mansion.
The wheels rolled rapidly, and the carriage shook and bumped. There was a soft knock on the top of the carriage, and Xing Jun's face changed, [Be careful! Reach out and push the summer solstice back. Xia Solstice fell to the side, and a sharp sword with a cold light appeared in front of him, no more than a stone's throw away. If it weren't for Xing Junyi's quick reaction just now, Xia Zhi might have been tricked.
Luo Ying in front of him seemed to have been entangled with the comer, and the sonorous sound of the sword collision knew the fierceness of the battle. Xing Junyi went out to help with his sword and joined the scorching battle.
The carriage was still moving, and the horses were frightened, and spread their hooves and galloped forward. However, at this time, no one was in charge of controlling the direction, the carriage swayed from side to side, and Xia Solstice was thrown around like a tumbler, and after a while, he was already dizzy and dizzy, and his head hurt.
At this time, someone got into the carriage, and Xia Zhi looked at it, it turned out to be Luo Ying, who had just cleaned up an assassin and was able to get out temporarily, and stretched out his hand at Xia Zhi, [Follow me!] 】
Xia Zhi understood, took Luo Ying's hand and got out of the carriage. Xing Junyi was still holding back the two assassins, and he seemed to be a little down, but he still tried to create a chance for them to escape.
Luo Ying couldn't help but say that he ran forward with Xia Zhi, trying to get rid of the other party's pursuit. After going around the streets and alleys for a while, the pursuers behind followed unrelentingly, and it seemed that they couldn't catch up with people and swore not to give up.
After the two of them rounded a corner, Luo Ying jumped over a low wall with her flying body, hiding next to the abandoned water tank, waiting for the pursuers to reappear after walking away.
Sure enough, outside the wall, the footsteps quickly caught up, and after running forward for a while, it seemed that he found something wrong and turned back.
[Bastard, where did you run!] One of them angrily hammered the wall. Xia Zhi's heart, which was just behind the wall, chuckled, and it felt like it stopped beating for a second.
[I definitely didn't run far, I found a place to hide! ] Another person judged, [I told you not to act rashly, who told you to jump out first, otherwise you must have caught someone by this time!] 】
[Arresting people is the business of their action group, I just want an antidote!] 】
[Forget it, this thing was originally a private action, and it would be miserable if it was discovered. Since the operation failed and was destined to have no chance with the antidote, it was better to keep to yourself and carry out the task, don't grab the antidote, and it will be finished if you can't even get the feather. 】
The two of them scolded and left, and there was no movement outside the wall.
It sounds like the identities of these two assassins can be determined, they are undoubtedly from the killer organization, but they are not the action group responsible for chasing them, but the killers who want to find the antidote from Xia Zhi. As Xing Junyi said before, in order to cure the medicine, everyone even started to act privately behind the organization's back.
