After a little "protest", Lin Mengya, Long Tianhao, and the others were taken away by the Zhao family.
As for Li Ao and Qinghu, they had hidden themselves when they heard the commotion. They must be following them to ensure their safety.
As for the three unlucky guys, they were unlucky enough to be implicated by Lin Mengya and had no choice but to follow her.
Probably because they had accepted their fate.
Along the way, they secretly communicated with Lin Mengya. They got along well.
From the three of them, she finally understood what kind of thing the Zhao Family was.
It was similar to the Sheng and Song families.
The Zhao family also had a prominent reputation because their family members occupied an important position in the Elders' Assembly.
But the elder of the Zhao family was different from the Sheng and Song families.
It was said that he was once abandoned by the family. Later, he risked his life to become an elder.
Such a person naturally did not have much sense of belonging to the Zhao family.
Although he allowed the Zhao family to climb up the social ladder, in fact, he only treated the Zhao family as a tool.
"Elder Zhao is very powerful!"
Unable to hold back, Young Master Liu secretly shared the gossip with her.
"I heard that last month, a member of the Zhao family did not do his job well and was almost beaten to death by him! Sigh, this Zhao Family only has themselves to blame. Couldn't they have just been a little nicer to them? "
Lin Mengya did not comment and just listened quietly.
But she still had some doubts.
"Since Elder Zhao is so harsh to the Zhao family, why is the Zhao family still clinging to him?"
Young Master Liu curled his lips and said disdainfully, "The Zhao family is strong on the outside but weak on the inside. They only have a little prestige left. Otherwise, Zhao Jian would not have rushed to the Sheng family to steal things. "
Lin Mengya held back her laughter. She wondered who was so scared that he almost fainted just now.
But from their words, she also gained a lot of useful information.
She glanced at Zhao Jian and Elder Luo.
The atmosphere on their side was very tense, and everyone's faces were stiff, which further confirmed her previous guess.
This time, they went to meet "Bo Ren", either to negotiate or to fight.
She glanced around and found that there were only about a hundred people in total.
No matter how weak Master Huo was, he still had the advantage in numbers.
She remembered what she had just heard.
Could it be that these people were sent out by Elder Zhao as cannon fodder?
In front of them, Zhao Jian and Elder Luo's faces darkened.
"Didn't you say there would be more people coming? Why haven't I seen anyone else along the way? "Zhao Jian grumbled, but he didn't dare to raise his voice.
Elder Luo was also a little anxious in his heart, but he did not show it on his face.
"They are probably delayed by something. Don't worry, Fourth Master. Bo Ren just wants us to let them go. If they don't see them, they won't do anything."
"Oh, that's hard to say. It's not like our Zhao Family has never been bitten by ungrateful people." His tone was sarcastic, but Elder Luo frowned and warned him.
"Mister Zhao, it's better to be careful with your words and actions."
Zhao Jian knew that he had misspoken and glared at him in annoyance, not saying another word.
The group of people traveled for more than four hours and only arrived at their destination when it was almost dark.
As the "captives" of the Zhao Family, Lin Mengya and her companions were only guarded by the Zhao Family, and no one came to find trouble with them.
Such negligence made Lin Mengya want to sneer.
If these people really wanted to fight with Master Huo, she could outflank them from the front and back.
She was sure to beat these guys until they cried for their parents.
"It's cold at night, you should wear more."
Lin Mengya, who was lost in thought, suddenly felt a warmth on her back, and then realized that Yu had put the blanket that was used to cover his legs on her.
Lin Mengya sniffed the faint fragrance of herbs on it, and leaned against Long Tianhao's leg, wrapping his legs and herself with the blanket.
"Yu, do you think that the Zhao Family Elder really doesn't care about the life and death of his family?"
She knew very well how ruthless Boss Huo's men were.
Then she looked at the group of ugly people brought by the Zhao Family.
It was not that Lin Mengya deliberately ridiculed them, but except for the few guards around Zhao Jian, the rest were purely here to make up the numbers.
"Who knows."
Long Tianhao stroked her long hair, his mood not affected at all.
But they both knew what each other meant.
They were not worried about the life and death of the Zhao Family, they were just worried that this was another conspiracy of the Elders against Bo Ren.
Soon, countless torches gathered in front of them, forming a sea of light.
Even if one person carried two torches, the number would be enough to kill the Zhao Family people several times over.
Zhao Jian gritted his teeth, but in his heart, he was cursing that bastard who did not care about his own flesh and blood.
Gritting his teeth, he was ready to step forward, but was stopped by Elder Luo.
"Fourth Master, don't be rash."
Elder Luo was also nervous, but he had always been cautious, so he appeared much calmer than Zhao Jian.
"Are you afraid?" Zhao Jian put on a fierce front, but he still had the time to laugh at others.
Elder Luo shook his head with a solemn expression.
"I just don't want our people to die for no reason."
As soon as the two finished talking, the "sea of light" was right in front of them.
"Where's the person I want?"
Huo Xiao was dressed in black, and his aura was like an unsheathed blade as he rode on the horse, as if he could take someone's life at any time.
Zhao Jian gritted his teeth, but still replied arrogantly, "Who is it? I don't know when it was your group of dirty divination people's turn to mess around in our aboriginals' territory! "
Huo Xiao narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly.
"It seems that you are not going to hand him over."
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
Elder Luo hurried out to mediate, but there was still a dispute between the two sides. In the end, Huo Xiao gave an ultimatum.
"Before dawn, I want to see the Bo Ren companion that you have tricked into coming here. Otherwise … "
He drew out his long knife, his face full of murderous intent.
"Don't blame me for massacring the aboriginals!"
The dispute in front also made the people behind them nervous.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao quietly watched what was happening in front of them, communicating with each other at any time.
"Something is wrong."
She quickly typed out her doubts.
"Huo Xiao is not such an impulsive person. Moreover, massacring the aboriginals is like throwing an egg against a rock."
No matter how large the Bo Ren community was, no matter how brave Huo Xiao and his confidants were, they would never reach the level of massacring the aboriginals.
Before they left, Huo Xiao's attitude was still considered gentle.
Why was he so aggressive now?
Long Tianhao pondered for a long time.
"Maybe something happened to the Bo Ren community after we left. It's very likely that those fortune-tellers who surrendered previously suffered some serious injuries. "
This guess was very reasonable.
The Bo Ren community was actually very united.
This was because they had all been abandoned, violated, and enslaved. Later on, they were reborn together.
This experience had bonded them together, forming a community with a common destiny.
Perhaps some of the aboriginals' previous actions could temporarily incite and confuse them.
But it was also because they were very clear that if they were to meet with an accident, their remaining companions could avoid repeating the same mistakes. At the same time, they could also be their last hope.
They just didn't know what the aboriginals had done to cause such a huge backlash.
Just as they were guessing, even with Elder Luo's obstruction, Zhao Jian and Huo Xiao were filled with the smell of gunpowder.
"You, you are simply delusional!"
After hearing the other party's conditions, Zhao Jian panicked.
Massacring the aboriginals?
Did this group of people want to die?
However, Huo Xiao only held his long saber and said nothing.
At this moment, his dark eyes were staring in the direction of the aboriginals.
The deep hatred in his heart was as thick as ink.
From the moment he learned that his companions had been killed, the last bit of hope he had for the aboriginals was completely shattered.
Since the aboriginals wouldn't give them justice, they would use their own hands to get it back.
But it was a pity.
He thought of a person.
It was a pity that he didn't have time to say goodbye to her.
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from not far away.
"Let us go! We are not your prisoners! "
Huo Xiao's eyes lit up and he looked in the direction of the voice.
At the back of the aboriginals' group, there was a figure, one standing and one sitting, walking towards him.
For a moment, Huo Xiao thought that he was hallucinating.
But that voice …
He definitely didn't hear wrongly!
Seeing that there was someone who dared to reach out to his wife, Long Tianhao coldly glared at the person.
Although this man was just sitting, he had a strong aura, especially now that the husband and wife were together, he was simply invincible. Wherever he went, no one dared to touch him and only subconsciously avoided him.
So when the two of them came near Zhao Jian, miraculously, no one dared to stop them.
"Mister Zhao, how long are you going to keep us here?"
Lin Mengya quickly glanced at Huo Xiao, who almost thought that she was hallucinating.
Her face was full of dissatisfaction, while Zhao Jian was almost angered to death.
How could he forget that he had brought two troublemakers with him?
At that moment, his head hurt even more.
"What are you trying to do?" Zhao Jian asked through gritted teeth.
"I don't want anything!"
Lin Mengya looked like she didn't care at all.
"It's getting late. My husband and I are going home to sleep."
Zhao Jian was infuriated.
Sleep?
He was about to lose his life, and these two still had the mood to sleep?
This time, Long Tianhao also followed his wife's lead.
He frowned slightly and his face was cold and impatient.
"Even if Elder Zhao was here, he wouldn't dare to slight us. Mister Zhao, we have already done our best. I hope you know what to do next. "
Unexpectedly, Zhao Jian was suddenly angered.
He sneered a few times and stared at them angrily.
"Ha! I knew that all of you look down on the Zhao family! "
After saying that, he suddenly revealed an extremely strange smile.
Seeing that smile, Lin Mengya couldn't help but feel a little scared.
