After saying these words, Zhao Jian's face was filled with a sinister aura, making anyone who looked at him feel uncomfortable.
But he did not stop Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao from leaving.
While no one was looking, Lin Mengya signaled Huo Xiao with her eyes not to be impulsive, and then left with Long Tianhao in the opposite direction.
"Send the three of them back first."
When she was sure that the Zhao family could not see them, Lin Mengya signaled the guards to send the three of them back first.
The three of them were smart enough not to ask any more questions.
After what she said today, it was better for small fries like them to shut up, lest they get involved.
Not long after, a few figures came from afar.
Long Tianhao narrowed his eyes and signaled his men to be ready to arrest them.
"Is that Master Gong and the Lord in front?"
A familiar voice came.
Lin Mengya breathed a sigh of relief and replied.
"Brother Huo, it's us."
Soon, Huo Xiao and his men arrived in front of them.
As soon as they saw each other, Huo Xiao frowned and said, "Why are you still here? It's too dangerous here, you should leave as soon as possible. "
"Brother Huo, are you hurt?"
Lin Mengya's nose was very sensitive, and she immediately smelled the medicine on him.
And it was a burn.
Huo Xiao subconsciously covered his wrist, and said calmly, "It's okay, it's just a small injury."
"It's about to fester, and it's still a small injury?"
Lin Mengya said disapprovingly, and reached out to grab his wrist.
Huo Xiao was shocked, and wanted to withdraw his hand, but he could not bear to. He could only let her pull up his sleeve and untie the cloth wrapped around his forearm.
Burns were more hideous than ordinary wounds, and Huo Xiao's were not ordinary. There were already signs of festering.
"Bear with it, I'll help you scrape off the festering area, and then apply some powder to stop the bleeding. Otherwise, your arm will be useless. "
It was hard to imagine that this person could continue to use a weapon when his wound had opened up.
Not to mention the unbearable pain, was he really not afraid of becoming a one-armed hero in the future?
Lin Mengya could not help but grumble, but she did not notice that Huo Xiao's eyes had become gentler as she lowered her head to treat his wound.
She was fast, and the medicine was very effective. Before Huo Xiao could feel much pain, she had already wrapped him up.
"It's best for burns to heal faster if the affected area is exposed. I'll change your dressing tomorrow, and you'll have to recuperate."
She burned the dirty towel and came back to talk to him.
Before he got close, he heard Huo Xiao questioning Long Tianhao in a slightly agitated tone.
"Look at the situation, you have to think about her. Aren't you afraid of implicating her by doing this? "
Was he talking about her? Lin Mengya was a little puzzled, wondering why the two of them were fighting.
Long Tianhao narrowed his eyes and sounded a little dissatisfied.
"This is a matter between the two of us. It's not up to outsiders to interfere."
"You!"
"All of you stop."
With a mind full of questions, Lin Mengya stopped their quarrel.
"What are you guys talking about?"
Long Tianhao lowered his eyes. Huo Xiao wanted to say something but stopped himself.
She looked around and finally said to her man, "Tell me."
He secretly curled his lips.
This guy should be able to tell who Ya 'er was close to now, right?
However, there was a look of grievance on his face that only Lin Mengya could see.
"Huo Xiao accused me of dragging you into the muddy waters of the aboriginals.
。”
Huo Xiao's expression changed.
He knew that he was being a busybody.
However, the situation in the aboriginals was too complicated, and he really didn't want others to be implicated.
"So that's why."
She nodded as if she suddenly understood.
Huo Xiao clenched his fists and couldn't help but tense up.
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Huo," she said with a smile.
"However, I have my own reasons for coming to the aboriginals this time."
She didn't blame him for being a busybody.
She knew a little about Huo Xiao's character. He was a very loyal person to his friends.
"This … Alright. However, I really hope that you can leave as soon as possible. "
Faced with Huo Xiao's persuasion, Lin Mengya could sense the seriousness of the situation.
"What exactly happened? Does it have anything to do with your injuries? "
Huo Xiao suddenly fell silent for a moment before saying, "I can't explain the specifics in a few words. However, there is one thing that the aboriginals are trying their best to expel all foreigners, and those foreigners are disappearing rapidly.
I had originally received a letter from my companions and brought some people here to receive them. However, the night before yesterday, our campsite suddenly burst into flames.
Fortunately, Wu Ying and Wang Yan were alert, and everyone was only lightly injured. "
Hearing this, Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao's expressions became more serious.
"Are you saying that it was arson?" She asked.
Huo Xiao pursed his lips.
"When the fire started, I smelled a strange smell."
He glanced at his arm.
"Originally, I had already escaped from the fire, but when I was saving people, I accidentally touched something and got burned. That thing couldn't be extinguished. Fortunately, I only touched a small part of it. "
Lin Mengya couldn't help but feel suffocated.
Strange smell, fire that couldn't be extinguished …
All of this reeked of a conspiracy.
"Can you tell me more about the smell of that thing?" Lin Mengya couldn't help but ask. In her heart, she also wanted to be on guard.
Huo Xiao frowned.
"It smelled a little like turpentine, but when it burned, it smelled a little bad. However, I'm sure that it was definitely not kerosene. "
It was already not easy for him to recall these details after the incident.
Lin Mengya turned to look at Long Tianhao and decided that no matter where they went in the future, they must be on guard.
"Then why did you confront Zhao Jian this time?" She changed the topic and brought up today's incident.
Huo Xiao laughed coldly.
"Of course it's because that elder from the Zhao family was the leader of the recruitment document. In the letter that my companions sent back, they also mentioned that when they arrived at the aboriginals, it was this elder who was in charge of receiving them.
Since they have taken the people away, they have to return them to me! "
So that was the reason.
No wonder Huo Xiao was so aggressive.
No matter who it was, no one would have such a good temper.
But …
"I don't think you and Zhao Jian will come to a conclusion."
Based on her observation along the way, Lin Mengya was sure that Zhao Jian was just a cannon fodder pushed to the front of the stage.
Huo Xiao's face grew darker.
"I know this very well, but I can't let it go!"
Although he had made up his mind to give up on his companions who left halfway, he couldn't let them die.
Lin Mengya also knew this.
Therefore, those missing people were probably bait to lure him into the trap.
"I think you should not act rashly. Zhao Jian said that he should have help. Moreover, the arsonist must still be watching you in the dark, looking for an opportunity. It's better to be cautious. "
It was not difficult to see that this was probably a good show.
Huo Xiao nodded, but he didn't want them to get involved.
"Hurry up and leave before they launch an attack."
But at this moment, Long Tianhao, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
"I'm afraid we can't leave either."
"What?" Huo Xiao was shocked.
On the other hand, Zhao Jian and Elder Luo were also surging.
Elder Luo had always been a cautious person. This time, when he was sent to negotiate with Bu Ren, he secretly felt that something was wrong.
What Zhao Jian had said just now only added to his worries.
Looking at the people opposite him, he couldn't help but feel bitterness in his throat.
As long as he could keep his life, he didn't dare to hope for anything else.
"Fourth Master?"
He called out to Zhao Jian carefully.
The latter had been resting with his eyes closed since the beginning.
"What's the matter?"
Zhao Jian glanced at him, his tone somewhat disdainful.
Elder Luo had to force himself to smile dryly.
"What should we do now?"
"What do you mean? Of course, get rid of them all. "
Zhao Jian's words were laced with bone-deep venom.
Even Elder Luo was startled and hurriedly said, "This, this can't be done! They outnumber us, I'm afraid we won't be able to resist them. "
"You still don't understand, if they don't die, we will be the ones to die!" Zhao Jian said coldly.
Elder Luo was stunned for a moment, then his face turned pale.
"How is that possible? I didn't do anything wrong … "
Zhao Jian glanced at that guy disdainfully, his heart filled with violent thoughts.
Since that bastard, ever since he was promoted, he had been scheming to exchange the Zhao family for greater benefits.
On the other hand, his and his father's influence and prestige in the Zhao Family were gradually showing signs of surpassing that of the puppet they had supported.
Therefore, that person wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of him, to avoid future worries.
However, he would not let that bastard get what he wanted!
Zhao Jian walked to the back of the group with large strides without even glancing at the panicking good-for-nothing.
The sinister smile at the corner of his mouth became more and more sinister.
He would never allow himself to die in such a small ditch.
The Zhao family would eventually be in the bag of this father and son!
And outside the battlefield where the Zhao family confronted Bu Ren, Lin Mengya and the other two were also facing a greater crisis.
Just as Long Tianhao's voice died away, countless arrows suddenly shot out from the dark.
"Ambush!"
Huo Xiao shouted and took the opportunity to stand in front of Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao.
Long Tianhao just glanced at him, turned his wheelchair, and turned to the other side, firmly protecting his wife.
Although there were many arrows, none of them could hurt the person they wanted to protect.
"Who are you?" Huo Xiao shouted, his heart burning with anxiety.
He had been careless!
If he had not been in a hurry to see them, these people would not have followed him.
But when he was about to apologize to Gong Ya, he saw that the girl was hiding behind Long Tianhao's wheelchair and looking at the direction from which the arrow was shot.
And Long Tianhao seemed to have countless pairs of eyes, always one step ahead to block the arrows from tricky angles.
