Jiang Fa did not follow immediately.
He squatted in the dark and observed for a moment, making sure there were no other whistles around, and then moved a few steps silently against the wall.
But just when he rounded the rockery, he found that the thin figure in front of him suddenly stopped.
She seemed to be frozen in place, like a rabbit being stared at by a hound.
Jiang Fa's heart tightened.
Following her gaze, at the corner of a corridor in the southeast corner of the backyard, a figure with a knife was walking towards this direction.
The man was wearing Wang Family nursing home clothes, holding a half-old ring-headed knife in his hand, and a bamboo whistle hanging on his waist. He walked slowly and unhurriedly. It was Zhou Qi who had just been fooled by Jiang Fa with a swill bucket.
He obviously just visited here on a routine basis and found nothing unusual.
But if he had taken a few more steps, he would have definitely seen that thin figure clearly.
The thin figure was obviously extremely nervous. She glanced around hurriedly, as if she was looking for a place to hide.
But there was no cover at all in her position. As long as Zhou Qi took a few more steps, she would be exposed.
Seeing that he was about to be discovered, the thin figure scrambled in panic and stepped on a dead branch, making a crisp "click" sound.
Zhou Qi paused, turned his head suddenly and looked this way, his hand already pressed on the handle of the knife. "Who is there!"
The thin figure froze.
Zhou Qi drew his sword out of its sheath, the blade glowing coldly in the moonlight, and stepped towards the rockery step by step. "Come out! I saw you!"
The moonlight shines directly on the face of that thin figure.
The charcoal gray was applied very thickly, but it could not cover up the frightened but still delicate outline.
Zhou Qi was stunned for a moment.
He originally thought he was some blind thief, but although the face in front of him was smeared and dirty, his facial features were extremely delicate and his chin was pointed. He was clearly a girl.
"You!"
As soon as he uttered a word, the back of his neck suddenly went numb.
A figure emerged from the darkness silently, and a hand knife accurately cut him on the back of the neck.
Zhou Qi didn't even hum. He rolled his eyes and slumped toward the ground.
The thin figure was obviously frightened by the sudden situation.
She took a few steps back suddenly, her back hit the rockery, and she covered her mouth with both hands, swallowing back the exclamation that almost escaped her lips.
Jiang Fa in the dark frowned slightly.
The owner of that palm is extremely fast and very familiar.
Is it her?
Jiang Fa's heart moved slightly.
The thin figure froze on the spot, his eyes widened, staring at Zhou Qi's body collapsed on the ground, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
"What are you doing here? Drag me here."
The person who appeared behind him couldn't help but shout at her.
The thin figure trembled all over, then reacted, gritted his teeth, took two steps forward, squatted down and dragged Zhou Qi's arm.
Another figure seemed a little impatient with her dilly-dallying. The figure flickered and reached out to grab Zhou Qi's other arm.
With a flick of his hand, Zhou Qi was thrown into the narrow gap behind the rockery. The movement was extremely clean and neat.
The thin figure was once again stunned by her.
"Why are you here?"
The figure looked at the thin figure in front of him, and the two seemed to have known each other for a long time.
"I... I'm looking for Senior Brother Jiang..."
The voice of the thin figure had a hint of nervousness.
"Nonsense!" the owner of another figure scolded, "Wang Family is heavily guarded. What can you, a little girl, do if you break in? Will you die?"
"I..." Although the face of the thin figure was aggrieved, his eyes were surprisingly stubborn.
The figure behind suddenly walked out of the darkness of the rockery, and the moonlight fell on her face, revealing a delicate and soft face.
Jiang Fa can clearly see that this person is Gu Qingyan, whom he has not seen for many days.
Although he was deliberately disguised and had some manipulations done to his face, his cold almond-shaped eyes and upright posture could not deceive anyone.
At this moment, Gu Qingyan looked exhausted and haggard, and had long since lost the cold and aloof look he had in the martial arts competition.
Why is she here?
Jiang Fa There was a trace of doubt in his mind, but he quickly dismissed the idea.
Now is not the time to pursue this.
Gu Qingyan turned around and walked up to the thin figure, lowering his voice and scolding. "Do you know where this place is? Wang Family's mansion is now a dragon's den and a tiger's den. You, a little girl Middle Stage of Ming Jin, what's the difference between breaking in here and dying?"
That thin figure is naturally Tang Jin'er.
Her face was smeared thickly with charcoal gray, and the dark gray outfit on her body was obviously two sizes too big, and she obviously got it from somewhere.
Jiang Fa knew it was her when he heard her voice.
It's just that there's something strange about him,
Why is this girl here?
Being lectured like this by Gu Qingyan, Tang Jin'er's eye circles suddenly turned red, but she still bit her lip and said stubbornly, "I... I heard that Master and the others were arrested, and I'm worried that Senior Brother Jiang will also..."
"What are you worried about?" Gu Qingyan interrupted her, speaking in a very low voice, "You are worried about him, so you can get into the Wang Family by yourself? Who do you think you are?"
Tang Jin'er was speechless by her words: "I... I just want to help..."
"Help?" Gu Qingyan snorted, the coldness in his tone softened a little, and he said helplessly, "You dared to rush in without even knowing the secret whistle in the backyard. If I hadn't happened to be following you, and that person had blown the whistle just now, the guards of the entire Wang Family mansion would have been alarmed. Not only would you save others, but you would also be in trouble."
Tang Jin'er whispered, "Then why are you here..."
Gu Qingyan hesitated slightly.
She turned her face away and was silent for a moment.
"My master was also arrested by them."
"Hall Master Shui was also arrested?" Tang Jin'er raised his head with a trace of surprise on his face.
"Hmm."
Gu Qingyan didn't say much, just responded briefly, and then glanced around cautiously.
Jiang Fa was in no hurry to show up.
He hid not far away and listened to the conversation between the two word by word.
Shui Qingqian was arrested, and he was not surprised that Gu Qingyan would appear here.
Available Tang Jin'er...
He looked at the thin figure and frowned slightly.
This girl is a little too courageous.
Gu Qingyan looked at Tang Jin'er and asked curiously, "How did you get in?"
Tang Jin'er shrank his neck and whispered, "I... I saw Wang Family's grain truck on the street the day before yesterday. I was small, so I hid in the grain truck and got in... After I came in, I hid in the woodshed where debris was piled in the back garden. I didn't dare to come out until dark..."
"The day before yesterday?" Gu Qingyan frowned. "You were hiding in the Wang Family for two days?"
"Well..." Tang Jin'er lowered his head. "I dare not move. There are people patrolling outside the woodshed. I waited until tonight to find a chance to sneak out..."
