Facing Ning Ning's question, Shang Wenqi once again looked around strangely, then gently approached Ning Ning and whispered in her ear: "I'll tell you, don't be afraid."

"?" Ning Ning looked confused.

"Just now, did you notice anything wrong?"

“???” Ning Ning was puzzled again, what was wrong?

"I suspect that some supernatural force helped us escape successfully."

"Ah?" Ning Ning was confused.

Shang Wenqi still had a lingering fear on his face: "Although I did use my inner strength to block some arrows, no matter how powerful I am, I can't completely block those thousands of arrows.

Just now it was as if there was some mysterious force blocking all this for me."

"Uh..." Ning Ningya was speechless.

She had never expected that Shang Wenqi would actually discover her behind-the-scenes manipulation. What's more important is that he actually regarded her behind-the-scenes manipulation as supernatural power.

Then... does she not need to bother explaining?

Ning Ning's hesitation made Shang Wenqi even more certain of this.

His expression couldn't help but become more serious: "You also found out, right?"

"I..." Ning Ning scratched his head, his feelings difficult to express.

Shang Wenqi thought of something and reached out to touch Ning Ning's collar.

?

Ning Ning looked confused.

Isn't this guy afraid of ghosts and gods? Why did he suddenly become so clumsy?

Is it suitable for him?

Unexpectedly, Shang Wenqi still insisted until

Shang Wenqi breathed a sigh of relief only when he touched the small stone on her neck.

"I found this stone in the southern holy land. It can ward off evil. I have been wearing it all these years and nothing has happened. It will protect you."

As he said this, Shang Wenqi tied it tightly for her.

Ning Ning was stunned. It turned out that Shang Wenqi was not suddenly moved. He just wanted to make sure that the "amulet" on her body was still there. To put it bluntly, he wanted to protect her safety.

For a moment, an unfamiliar warmth surged in Ning Ning's heart.

This feeling has never happened before.

Ning Ning couldn't help but curled her lips: "I understand, thank you."

Shang Wenqi nodded and comforted him solemnly again: "After all, don't be afraid."

Uh... Ning Ning was embarrassed.

To be honest, from beginning to end, she never said she was afraid...

But how could Shang Wenqi imagine she was afraid?

Or……

Ning Ning gave him a strange look, and after a while she began to smirk: "I say, are you scared?"

Shang Wenqi's face suddenly became strange, and he looked unusually shy.

Ning Ning didn't understand anything at the moment and grinned again.

But before Cricket could finish his words, Shang Wenqi cleared his throat and stood up calmly.

"I'll go look around."

"No, it's daybreak now. If we go out, we'll become targets."

If it were dark, they could still hide with the help of blind spots, but now it was broad daylight and if they went out for a walk, even a blind person could see them.

Ning Ning stopped Shang Wenqi without saying anything.

"We won't be hungry for a while anyway, so we'll just stay where we are and hide from the spotlight. We'll go out at night and see what our next plan is."

Shang Wenqi took a look outside and resigned himself to sitting down next to Ning Ning.

"Let's leave at night, reunite with our people, and then capture this place."

At this point, peaceful negotiations are no longer possible, and only force can resolve everything.

Ning Ning sighed. It seemed that a war was inevitable. It was a pity for those innocent people.

However, this matter was not initiated by them, nor is it something they can influence.

Today's decision is to avoid greater casualties in the future.

If Prince Ju could be killed here, it would certainly be better than him leading his troops to invade other places in the future.

Of course, Prince Ju had guessed their plan, so on that day, Tongzhou was almost completely blocked, and all the sects in the mountains came out to search for the suspect.

The common people and merchants had no idea what was going on. Faced with the large-scale raids, they were trembling with fear and did not dare to resist at all.

Zhou Ji BBQ Shop must have been closed down and the waiter ran away.

But I don't know whether he ran away or hid himself.

All the neighbors who got along well with Zhou Ji BBQ couldn't help but tremble with fear, fearing that they would be implicated.

However, what is coming will come.

Prince Ju did not let anyone go, but arrested all the merchants without leaving a single one behind.

However, they really didn't know Shang Wenqi and Ning Ning. Even torture would be useless. After all, they had never met them before, let alone heard the guys at Zhou Ji BBQ talk about them.

Looking at the tragic scene in the death row, Prince Ju knew clearly that Zhou Ji BBQ was probably an outsider.

Although he did not get any news about Shang Wenqi and Ning Ning, Prince Ju did not gain nothing. At least he already knew that there was no Ning Ning or Shang Wenqi in Tongzhou City.

Then, the only possibility is the wilderness.

If you think about it carefully, it is indeed easier to hide in the wilderness than in the crowded city.

So, Prince Ju stopped the people who were searching in the city and sent most of the troops to search outside the city.

In the first place, it was not easy to hide in the suburbs in broad daylight, not to mention that there were so many people searching, a direct carpet search could easily wipe out the area.

However, the prerequisite is that Ning Ning does not have the golden finger.

At this time, Ning Ning and Shang Wenqi were hiding in a bush. Ning Ning pretended to be asleep, but was actually controlling the system and starting a new round of investigation.

Her drone has been dispatched to monitor from a distance. As soon as it sees someone coming, it will immediately use holographic projection to project a blurry image of two people running in the distance.

It’s true, this escape technique seemed perfectly OK to the ancients.

The ancients had no way of telling what was real or fake, so when they saw a figure running by, they would immediately chase after it.

However, after chasing for a long time, they still couldn't catch up, and a holographic projection appeared on the other side, and everyone surrounded and intercepted it again.

So the daytime is wasted.

When they calmed down and thought about it carefully, they suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Although Shang Wenqi's kung fu is amazing, it is impossible for him to appear on this hill and that hill at the same time.

Moreover, the figure appeared very strangely. It disappeared in almost a moment, and there was no trace at all.

That appearance was more like a ghost than a human.

Sometimes, fear is like this, the most unpredictable.

Once they figured it out, fear spread in everyone's hearts.

This is the case at this time.

Everyone suddenly realized that what they were chasing might not be Shang Wenqi and Ning Ning, but some monster.

In fact, things went wrong since they surrounded Shang Wen and Qi Ningning in the morning.

Everyone thought nothing would happen in broad daylight, but an accident still happened in the wilderness.

As night fell, everyone felt confused and uneasy, as if it was a terrifying story they had never experienced before.
