"Let's go back first," Long Tianhao said in a low voice.
But Lin Mengya could tell from his expression that her husband was concerned about this matter.
They had been careful along the way, but on the way back, they still felt that there seemed to be more people on the street.
Furthermore, the extra people weren't as useless as the Ancient Race clansmen.
Those people were all young men with calm expressions.
Although their clothes were dusty, their expressions and habits could not be faked.
These people were probably regular soldiers!
And their destination was outside the city.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao, who heard the conversation between the two men, knew that the reason why these people appeared was to find out where they were staying as soon as possible.
On the way back, the two of them thought about it in their hearts.
At present, although they still had the advantage in numbers. But this was the home ground of the aboriginals.
Therefore, the best choice was to find out how to use the treasure of the aboriginals and then cure Moyan as soon as possible.
After that, they could take everyone away. As long as they were out of the aboriginals' territory, no matter how capable the aboriginals were, they might not be able to use it.
Thinking of this, the couple tacitly made up their minds.
But some things always changed faster than plans.
When the four of them returned to the second floor of the shop where they were temporarily staying, they found that the atmosphere between the two brothers of Yue Zhengjia was not quite right.
Especially after seeing her.
Subconsciously, Lin Mengya felt that the way the two brothers looked at her was a little strange.
She subconsciously looked at the clothes she was wearing.
Well, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.
It was rare to think that she did not cheat them except for saving Zhengzixiu's life recently.
Why were they looking at her with a pitiful face, which made her feel like a heartless man!
This speculation suddenly made Lin Mengya shudder.
This was absolutely impossible!
She had no other advantages, but she had always been very loyal! There was no room for others in her heart except for her man.
Thus, she could only attribute this strange atmosphere to the fact that the two brothers had most likely suffered some kind of shock, causing their brains to not be able to keep up.
Thinking of this, Lin Mengya could not help but feel sorry.
They were very outstanding brothers, but why did they suddenly become stupid?
When Yue Zhengzitan saw her, he immediately wanted to rush up, but he was stared at by the man beside her, but he still couldn't hide his eagerness to ask.
"You … How are you guys? Did the trip go well? Did you encounter any danger? Actually, I wanted to send someone to help you just now, but I didn't know when you would come out. "
When Yue Zhengzitan said this, for some reason, there was a hint of grievance in his tone.
Lin Mengya was even more confused.
Did he really become an idiot?
She really couldn't accept the situation of these two brothers. She secretly tugged at her man's sleeve.
He signaled with his eyes: I can't hold on any longer, you go!
Long Tianhao turned his head and gave her a reassuring look, but he couldn't help laughing at her in his heart.
This pair of brothers were simply two idiots!
It was no wonder that one would repay a debt of gratitude to the wrong person, and the other would personally send the swindler to her brother.
However, on the surface, he still maintained his usual calm composure.
"It's still going well. There's no need to pick us up. Also, we want to leave this place as soon as possible."
The conversation between Steward Chang and Miss Song was enough to make them wary.
After all, their target had always been his Madam.
Therefore, they had to move to a safer place as soon as possible, lest these two were driven to desperate action.
After all, although that place was hidden, it was not impossible for anyone to find it.
This matter concerned his family, so he didn't dare to gamble, and he absolutely couldn't take any risks.
"Ah, so fast!"
Yue Zhengzitan cried out in surprise, but then he thought of his brother's instructions just now.
He clenched his fists and tried to pretend as if nothing had happened. He said, "It may be a little difficult to get out of the city now, but I will do my best to help you."
Although Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao had expected this, they didn't expect Steward Chang to react so quickly.
It could be seen that the woman's threat had really grabbed Steward Chang's weak spot.
"It's okay, we will still go out through the secret passage this time." Lin Mengya said in a low voice.
So far, neither Yue Zhengzitan nor Wei Qingjiang had revealed the news that they had been rescued.
Come to think of it, their plan should be the same.
They wanted to hide behind the scenes and create the illusion that they had been killed, so as to force out the traitor and see what the other party's purpose was.
In particular, Yue Zhengzitan went to the secret meeting all day long to ask for them, which made the person behind the scenes believe that his plan had succeeded.
In this way, Lin Mengya and the others' escape route was protected.
If they returned according to the original route, they should not encounter much hindrance.
What's more, Wei Qingran was waiting outside, and she had previously agreed with Wei Qingran that they would come out on the third day after he went in, which was the same hour tomorrow.
Of course, if they didn't come out, it meant that there was something unusual in the city.
At that time, Wei Qingran would take her family far away, so that Wei Qingjiang would not have to worry about them.
But in fact, based on the relationship between the Wei family, they would never abandon their family.
At the thought of this, Lin Mengya couldn't help but sigh. The person behind the scenes was vicious.
They knew that the Wei family had a deep family bond with the Yue Zhengzitan brothers.
Once something happened to Wei Qingjiang and Yue Zhengzitan, their families would never abandon them.
In this way, they could catch them in one fell swoop!
It could be said that this evil plan was tailor-made for the two families.
Therefore, she had always guessed that the person who could carry out such a plan must be the one who was most familiar with them, and at the same time, had a close relationship with them.
But to be betrayed by such a person, it must be very uncomfortable for the two of them.
Therefore, she didn't ask too much about Yue Zhengzitan's plan. After all, no one liked to expose their scars again and again, and she didn't like to pry into other people's privacy.
Seeing that they insisted, Yue Zhengzitan thought for a while and suggested, "If you're not in a hurry, I suggest you wait a little longer."
His face was still very pale. After all, he had narrowly escaped death this time.
But he was recovering well, especially after knowing that Gong Ya was his benefactor's daughter. The guilt in his heart gave him more motivation to recover.
He had to get better quickly. Only then would he be able to help Gong Ya, make up for the mistakes he had made, and repay Aunt Qing for saving his brother's life.
"Why?" Lin Mengya asked.
Yue Zhengzitan didn't dare to look into those eyes, so he looked away and said softly, "It's the sacred lake festival in two days. Before that, they must choose a person to be the sacrifice, or it will be disrespectful to the lake god. On the day of the sacrifice, everyone has to attend, so we can take the opportunity to send you out. "
The sacred lake festival?
Lin Mengya's heart was filled with uneasiness.
She had clearly heard the conversation between the two people at the bottom of the stone stairs just now.
The woman had asked Keeper Chang to arrange everything in three days. She didn't even need to guess to know that she wanted to capture her to be the sacrifice.
Lin Mengya knew very well how terrifying a cornered enemy could be.
Therefore, she couldn't let herself be in danger, especially when she was worried about Moyan's safety.
After thinking for a while, she rejected Yue Zhengzitan's good intentions. "We have to leave in a day at most."
Even if they didn't know how to open the ancient clan's treasure, they had to leave.
Although some people said that the most dangerous place was the safest place, Lin Mengya didn't believe that she would be safe in a wolf's den.
What's more, the person Blade of Gold had met previously, as well as Miss Song, who could order Steward Chang around, were all unknown enemies.
She wasn't afraid of the strong, but she was wary of the unknown.
This kind of enemy, whose strength was unknown, was the most terrifying.
Yue Zhengzitan really did it out of kindness, but Lin Mengya also had her own reasons to leave.
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, he didn't force her. Instead, he secretly told his brother to do his best to protect their safety.
Yue Zhengzitan didn't dare to disobey his brother this time.
His brother said that if he didn't obey and acted on his own this time, he would kick him out and never want him again.
How could he do that!
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao also returned to the house where they temporarily stayed.
After thinking for a while, she took out the box of the ancient clan's treasure.
In fact, without the help of the system this time, she couldn't connect the two sides together.
But Long Tianhao was still in a state of confusion at this moment. When he saw her take out the box, he just raised his eyebrows.
Lin Mengya touched the lines on the box. Although she couldn't touch it, the picture that her teacher had drawn for her had been imprinted in her mind.
Before today, she didn't know what the mark on the box represented. But today, when she touched an enlarged version of the picture on the wall, she suddenly realized the key to the box.
That picture was actually a zither string.
Although she had taken music lessons in modern society and knew the most basic rules of the staff, she was not proficient in ancient music and zither scores.
Of course, Long Tianhao, who had received elite education, wasn't completely ignorant. But at that time, none of them thought in this direction.
Until today, when she touched the picture on the wall, it was a group of seven scratches.
As for why it was a zither string, it was Xiaoyao who reminded her.
If the seven scratches were divided into a group, it would actually be more like a group of melodies.
She thought about it. The sum of the number of circles found on the box was indeed divisible by seven.
That meant that the marks on those circles were also a group of seven. Maybe this was the key to solving the puzzle!
