They were clearly halfway up and would soon reach the top floor of the Zhang family's ancient building and get to know the secret of immortality, but now they were trapped in this small dark room.
Old Mrs. Huo was lost in thought, thinking that she might not be able to survive. She didn't know if Xiuxiu could protect her Huo family.
"Xiaohua..." Old Mrs. Huo pleaded in a weak voice.
"I don't think I can get out. I beg you, for the sake of our past, to help Xiuxiu..."
In fact, what Old Lady Huo wanted to say more was that Jie Yuchen should marry Huo Xiuxiu, but when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.
Old Mrs. Huo is a little confused now. She knows that Jie Yuchen will never marry Huo Xiuxiu. It has nothing to do with love, but mainly because the two families are simply not suitable.
It is impossible for Jie Yuchen to become a son-in-law, and the Huo family requires that men cannot be in power.
There is no solution to these two problems.
Jie Yuchen was silent for a moment before he said, "Don't worry, Granny Huo, I will help you embroider it."
When Mrs. Huo heard the answer that satisfied her, a smile broke out on her face, but she was wearing a gas mask and no one could see it.
After Mrs. Huo breathed a sigh of relief, she felt an unprecedented sense of fatigue. She gradually closed her eyes, and her raised hand fell down weakly.
In the last second before closing her eyes, the person Mrs. Huo thought of was not Huo Xiuxiu, but her daughter who had been missing for many years and had no news.
In her hazy state, Old Mrs. Huo seemed to see the young and beautiful daughter in her memory stretching out her hands to her, wanting to take her away.
Old Mrs. Huo put her hand on her daughter's, and the two of them walked towards the light.
Qin Ze and the others watched quietly, they knew that Old Mrs. Huo had gone.
Jie Yuchen felt a little melancholy in his heart. The moment Mrs. Huo decided to enter the Zhang family's ancient building, her fate had already been determined.
It’s just that Old Mrs. Huo was dazzled by the so-called immortality.
On the surface, she said she was looking for the truth about her daughter, but in fact, only she herself knew what she really wanted.
"Bang!" A bullet flew past the side of Hei Xia Zi and hit the wall directly, leaving a small hole.
Hei Xia Zi reacted well. When the man shot at him, he reacted and dodged in time.
“Crack—”
The sound of bones dislocating was heard, and there was a cold look in Hei Xia Zi's eyes. The guy who attacked him was the one who had had a conflict with them before.
The guy was beaten up by Hei Xia Zi and almost became disabled.
He fired the gun just now, probably because he thought he wouldn't live long, and taking away one more enemy would be a gain.
Hei Xia Zi never showed mercy to those who wanted to hurt him. He touched the man's neck and twisted it hard.
Before the man could even open his mouth to beg for mercy, his entire body had already collapsed. When he died, his eyes were wide open, and he looked upwards with great resentment and unwillingness.
"Damn it, you did it on purpose!" Some people have already realized that Hei Xia Zi and the others obviously don't know what's going on and are just pretending to be weak. They may know where the exit is, but they just don't tell them and watch them die!
Those who were still alive and hanging on to their last breath were all gritting their teeth in hatred, wishing they could just rush up and tear Qin Ze and the others apart.
But they didn't even have the strength to stand up, and could only lie half-dead on the ground or lean against the wall.
The breathing around them gradually weakened until there was no one left alive except them. Qin Ze and others stood up, and Zhang Qiling led them in one direction.
Qin Ze looked around curiously. Zhang Qiling brought them to a place similar to a treasure room. They turned several corners along the way, and Qin Ze felt a little dizzy.
Good god, I can’t even remember Lu.
"Hey, young man, your family is really rich!" As soon as the fat man turned on the flashlight, he was almost blinded by the dazzling golden light.
Wow, there are gold and treasures everywhere, and they are thrown on the ground for free.
This treasure room was quite large, with all kinds of treasures piled up like mountains. Wuxie's eyes widened as he looked at them. He had never felt that the gap between the rich and the poor was so huge.
Wuxie thought about the balance on his bank card and almost cried. He was indeed the poorest among the few people. Even after Xiaoze helped him a little, he was still the poorest. (╥_╥)
Wuxie felt that he couldn't go on like this. After returning, he would start working hard and strive to take over Wujia as soon as possible!
"You wait for me here." Zhang Qiling said, and left alone. Qin Ze held his hand.
"What do you want to do?"
Zhang Qiling turned around and looked at Qin Ze, his eyes filled with a complex expression that Qin Ze could not understand.
Qin Ze was a little confused. Zhang Qiling was fine just now, why did he suddenly leave? Qin Ze held Zhang Qiling's hand tightly, he didn't dare to let go. This guy was a person who would never let go in the plot. If he really let go, the person would disappear later. Where could he go to complain?
"I have to go somewhere and you can't go." Zhang Qiling lowered his eyelashes slightly. He remembered some things that he had not completed before because he forgot. It was time for him to do that thing.
Zhang Qiling slowly broke free from Qin Ze's hand. Qin Ze looked at Zhang Qiling seriously and said, "I can let you go, but you have to tell me, will you be in danger?"
Zhang Qiling was silent for a long time and shook his head.
"Won't."
His figure gradually disappeared into the darkness, and Qin Ze did not choose to chase him.
[System, grant me the highest authority to open the Heart Contract. I want to closely monitor what exactly happened to Zhang Qiling.]
Wuxie and the others looked at each other, not daring to say a word. The volcano above Qin Ze's head was already erupting, and it seemed that Xiaoze was in a very bad mood.
Hei Xia Zi silently lit a candle for the mute who insisted on leaving alone, hoping that what the mute said was true.
Hei Xiazi shook his head. If Dumb Zhang really encountered danger, Xiaoze would probably get angry and do something irrational, then it would be no wonder that the blind men didn't help.
[Zhang Qiling, you better tell me the truth, otherwise...]
The volcano eruption emoticon above Qin Ze's head suddenly turned into a devil's smile emoticon. Coupled with the extremely gloomy atmosphere around him, Wuxie and the others' hair stood on end.
Oh my god, Ozawa looks so scary!
The fat man even shrank behind Wuxie and the others, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible.
Ozawa looks very angry. Will he take his anger out on the fat guy?
Jie Yuchen looked at Qin Ze, then looked at the direction where Zhang Qiling left, and inexplicably felt that something was definitely going to happen.
I just don’t know whether it’s good or bad.
