Chapter 77: Hiding a Secret

"One last step." Cheng Shuiyao was visibly excited, and her eyes were full of excitement.

But there was a mistake in this last step.

Xiao Ji's clothes were suddenly scraped by the branch next to him, and his whole center of gravity was a little unstable, and he didn't step on the position he wanted to step on.

"Catch me!"

At the last moment, Cheng Shuiyao eagerly handed out his hand, gritted his teeth to hold Xiao Ji, and dragged him up desperately.

Although Xiao Ji is not sinking, in the current environment, it is difficult to drag him up with Cheng Shuiyao's small body.

Xiao Ji moved his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

"Shut up!" Cheng Shuiyao spoke directly, without giving him the slightest chance to open his mouth, "If you die, our group of people will not have a way to live, hurry up and climb up!" ”

This......

Xiao Ji sighed, then nodded lightly, and began to look for a point to borrow

Cheng Shuiyao clung to the stone beside her, so hard that her fingertips grinded out blood, but she couldn't care about breathing a sigh of relief.

Because once she is relieved, neither she nor Xiao Ji can live.

I don't know what force supports Cheng Shuiyao, she was stunned for a long time, and she held on until Xiao Ji stepped on the borrowing point, and then helped Xiao Ji go up the cliff.

Due to inertia, Xiao Ji and Cheng Shuiyao collided together, and the two of them rolled over on the ground a few times before they finally stopped.

Cheng Shuiyao took a sharp breath, and her eyes were instantly full of tears.

"Don't cry." Xiao Ji noticed the change in the mood of the people around her, slowly hugged her into his arms, and gently patted her back, wanting to help her eliminate the worries in her heart.

If she doesn't find an outlet to vent her emotions after being overly frightened, then sooner or later she will have to hold back the problem.

Cheng Shuiyao couldn't breathe from crying, her whole body was trembling, and she seemed to be unable to get out of the fright just now.

Xiao Ji just hugged her and gently comforted her until she stabilized her emotions.

"Master," Mo Qi and the others found this place all the way, and when they saw two people hugging each other tightly, they suddenly stopped not far behind them.

"This is not the place to talk," Xiao Ji gently picked up Cheng Shuiyao, "I'll take you back first." ”

Cheng Shuiyao couldn't hear the sound outside, but just stuck to Xiao Ji, wanting to seek some comfort.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Ji also knew that she couldn't respond, nodded at Mo Qi, and then hurriedly walked forward.

Luckily, they still have a secret point of contact in the city, which only they know, so it's extra safe.

Xiao Ji put Cheng Shuiyao to sleep and then accompanied her for a while, and saw that she was completely asleep before leaving the house.

"Master, I can't find out who did this," Mo Qi said as he swallowed his saliva, staring at Xiao Ji cautiously, for fear that he would be angry.

"Can't find out?" Xiao Ji spoke slowly, his voice lowered a lot because he suppressed his anger.

"Those people cleaned up the traces of the scene and left nothing, our people searched there for a long time and found nothing," Mo Shu silently blocked Mo Qi behind him, frowning and looking at Xiao Ji, "I am not doing well, and I ask the master to punish me." ”

"You ......" Mo Qi looked up in surprise, but saw Mo Shu shaking his head lightly at him, and could only hold back the words in his mouth.

"I've punished you, who will help me check people?" Xiao Ji snorted coldly, his attitude was not good, "In short, our route back to Beijing has been completely exposed, but the other side will probably think that Cheng Shuiyao and I are dead, so as long as we cover up our whereabouts, we can still go back." ”

"Is that really going to work?" Moshu shook his head, as if he didn't approve of the idea.

There are two of these kinds of things, and they can't be sure that the other side really believes that Xiao Ji and the two of them are dead.

"Then you need to put on a big show," Xiao Ji knocked lightly on the table, "You immediately go and prepare the white supplies, and then carry the coffin with great fanfare to fight back." ”

"This must not be!" Mo Shu's eyes widened, and he couldn't care about anything, so he retorted directly, "Mourning the living, but it's a bad thing." ”

"No matter how bad you are, you have to do it!" Xiao Ji stared at Moshu coldly, "Otherwise, you tell me, how should we go back to Beijing?" ”

Seeing that Moshu was still going to defend himself, Moqi hurriedly grabbed him, nodded first, and dragged Moshu away.

"What are you doing! You just watched your master do this? Moshu's voice sounded outside the door, obviously a little annoyed.

"Say less!" Moqi directly covered his mouth, and then pulled him away.

If you let Moshu stay here again, you have to let the master punish him to peel off his skin.

Xiao Ji sat on the stool, rubbed his sore eyebrows helplessly, and the resentment towards that person in his heart increased a little.

It's not enough to frame their family for rebellion, they have to kill them all now, which is too much!

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Ji forcibly held back the urge to kill, and wrote a letter.

Carefully drying the ink, Xiao Ji sent someone to deliver the letter, and then went to Cheng Shuiyao's house.

Cheng Shuiyao didn't sleep well, she was sweating profusely at this time, clutching the quilt tightly with both hands, as if she was going through some ordeal.

"Don't!"

Cheng Shuiyao suddenly shouted and sat up directly.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Xiao Ji hurriedly rushed over to stop her and gently patted her on the back.

Cheng Shuiyao trembled, her eyes were blank, and she obviously hadn't come out of the fright just now.

Xiao Ji was not impatient at all, carefully comforted her, and waited for her to come out of the fright just now.

"I'm so scared," Cheng Shuiyao muttered, although her mood was almost calm, her hands and feet were still cold.

"I was careless," Xiao Ji was full of guilt, and his tone was a little self-reproachful.

If he had paid close attention, this incident would not have happened.

Cheng Shuiyao half-squinted her eyes, forced herself to forget about the previous incident, and began to speak slowly, "Have you found out who did the thing?" ”

"No," Xiao Ji shook his head and spoke exactly, "But it should be the handiwork of the one in the palace." ”

The one in the palace had already sent people to attack them again and again, and although the moves were very different each time, those people were extremely insidious, making them a little unguarded.

"Is him again?" Cheng Shuiyao's emotions were a little excited, "Why is it endless?" Now that you're in exile, what is he afraid of? ”

"I'm afraid of the secrets of our General's Palace." Xiao Ji paused, and suddenly had a plan to share.

"Secret?" Cheng Shuiyao straightened up suspiciously, but gagged Xiao Ji before he could speak.

"You don't want to hear it?" Xiao Ji was a little confused by her actions, and looked at Cheng Shuiyao's eyes quite suspiciously.

"I'm too confused to think about it at all," Cheng Shuiyao shook her head, "Let's talk about this later." ”
