It's like being in darkness.
While going deep into the lake, Jing Chun suddenly realized that he couldn't see anything.
And the farther you go downstream, the harder it becomes to reach out and see.
He didn't know why he was so panicked. It seemed that every time he encountered something about Liu Shengsheng, all his thoughts would be thrown away...
The lake water was bitingly cold, like a sharp blade, frantically scraping every inch of his skin.
But he didn't feel any pain at all...
I just feel gradually suffocated.
It seems like I might run out of breath at any moment...
No, it was dark at the bottom of the lake. If there was no lighting, he would not be able to find Liu Shengsheng at all!
After thinking deeply for a while, Jing Chun finally swam back to the shore with great difficulty.
Fortunately, he still remembered the direction he came from, otherwise the lake would be covered with thick ice and he would be trapped in the lake accidentally.
But when he swam out of the lake and took a deep breath, a very familiar voice suddenly came to his ears.
"Don't worry, am I fine?"
It's Liu Shengsheng...
Didn't she fall into the lake?
Jing Chun looked into the distance in surprise, and from a distance, he saw Liu Shengsheng's safe figure.
I saw her standing in front of Nan Muze with a smile on her face, "The lake surface suddenly cracked just now. As soon as I noticed it, I used Qing Kung Fu to jump to the side. Then someone happened to want to attack me, so I poisoned them with a silver needle. Later, they fell into the lake, and in order to protect myself, I quietly hid behind a nearby tree."
"You also know that the situation just now was too chaotic. It seemed that there were people in the front, back, left and right. And it was not easy for me to rush over and fight with them, so I hid whenever I had the chance. Those people seemed to be coming for me, by mistake. I thought I would retreat immediately after falling into the lake, so..."
Before she finished speaking, Nan Muze had already hugged her tightly into his arms.
Liu Shengsheng smiled slightly and said, "I'm really fine. I know I can't mess around. I'm measured."
"Not allowed anymore."
"good."
In this way, Nan Muze finally let go of her, and then held her hand again, "I will take you back first, and we will investigate the assassin matter later."
"good."
"..."
Then the two slowly left there.
Behind a big tree not far away.
Jing Chun didn't know when he had returned to the shore. At this moment, his whole body was wet, and he looked extremely miserable in the howling cold wind.
But he just smiled bitterly.
What a joke.
Another joke.
How could I be so stupid that I dived into the water without even understanding the situation?
I almost forgot that she had regained her memory.
She is so smart, how could she put herself in danger?
I thought so, but for some reason, I felt lost in my heart.
The hands hanging at his sides were shaking inadvertently, and his already pale face became even paler at this moment.
Forget it, go back and change your clothes quickly.
It is already tiring to shake off those annoying followers, but now that there is such a fuss, the last bit of strength in the body seems to have been drained...
It was really embarrassing.
"..."
the other side.
It wasn't until late at night that Du Tingyun finally returned to his house with his people.
"A bunch of losers. I see that you all have outstanding abilities on weekdays. But when something happens, it's useless to compete with each other. You can't compete with others in a martial arts competition. You can't catch up with a pretty boy. You still have the nerve to follow behind me!"
It could be seen that Du Tingyun was very angry and scolded his subordinates all the way.
The entourage following him kept his head lowered, "Your Highness, that pretty boy's martial arts skills are too high. His light skills are so fast that he disappears accidentally. I really can't catch up with him."
he! "
Just as they were talking, a figure suddenly stood in front of them.
Du Tingyun frowned and took a look. Seeing that it was Xiao Jiang, his tone became more friendly, "It's so late, what else can you do?"
Xiao Jiang's face was gloomy, "Our prince invites you to sit in the study."
"The prince is a little tired today. If Prince Cang has anything to say, please don't tell me until later."
Du Tingyun was about to leave after saying this.
Xiao Jiang said bluntly: "Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that when His Highness the Prince went to pursue Xue Linglong, our queen was assassinated, and our prince just wanted to ask His Highness how much he knew."
Hearing these words, Du Tingyun's expression suddenly changed.
"Shengsheng was assassinated? Who did it?"
"If I knew someone, I wouldn't come here to ask His Highness the Crown Prince."
Du Tingyun frowned, "What do you mean? Are you doubting this prince?"
"I don't dare. Since His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know, then my subordinates will resign."
After saying that, Xiao Jiang bowed and left.
Du Tingyun immediately stopped him, "Wait! I'll go to the study with you."
"Then please."
"..."
At the same time, in the courtyard where Liu Shengsheng lived.
Since Nan Muze was still dealing with today's assassin matter, Liu Shengsheng was just sitting alone on the swing in the courtyard in a daze.
Her mind was racing with thoughts. This was Mo City. To be able to arrange so many killers here, first of all, the power of the person behind it must be extraordinary.
Either it's a local snake here, or it's a big gang with influence in many places.
But in the eyes of the imperial court, these are just small forces. Under normal circumstances, it should be impossible to be an enemy of the imperial court.
Therefore, that person's power should be much greater than she imagined.
But if that was the case, it should be easy to find out. Why couldn't she figure it out after thinking for a long time?
After all, her enemies have almost been eliminated. Could it be said that she really came from the country?
impossible?
Now that the city gate is closed, even if people from the country want to come and act as monsters again, they will not be able to enter the city easily...
Either they entered Feng Qing Kingdom from other cities and then traveled ten days and a half or even a month to get here, or they had left many forces in the city a long time ago...
This possibility is equally slim.
Suddenly a cool breeze blew, and Liu Shengsheng felt a little cold, so she stood up and walked back to the room step by step.
As soon as she closed the door, she noticed someone entering the room!
She wanted to open the door and go out immediately, and even wanted to call someone.
But before he could turn around and open the door, a familiar voice came.
"Poisonous girl, long time no see again."
It's Jing Chun.
Hearing his voice, Liu Shengsheng felt quietly relieved for some reason.
Just don’t be the assassin in the afternoon...
But she was still vigilant and put her hand on the doorknob.
"What are you doing here?"
Beside the window, a dark figure slowly walked to the table, and then gently lit a candle.
As the candle lights lit up, Liu Shengsheng finally saw Jing Chun's face clearly.
