Chapter 146
"what happened?"
"do not know."
"What about painting?"
"Gone."
"Why is it gone? Where did it go? Where the hell did you find it?!" Zhao Ming finally couldn't hold back his smiling face, which was flattened at first glance, and he was very broken.
Why did that bastard Xue Qiao bump into a secret room that could be opened as soon as he came, and when he got there, he hit the wall and disappeared? !
Are you kidding him, kidding him, or kidding him? !
Xiang Jia's complexion is not very good, after all, the longer the delay, the more variables will become, but they still have to look for it, after all, they don't know whether the painting has been transferred or not.
If it is still open...then their trip will be in vain.
"Do you want to call Xue Qiao back?" Zhao Ming suggested unwillingly.
Xiang Jia sighed: "Call."
In such a big castle, it is really difficult to find just one painting, so it is better to let Ouhuang try his luck.
So Ouhuang, who didn't know the truth, was invited back to the castle again. This time, Xiang Jia and Zhao Ming did not search blindly, but followed Xue Qiao to search room by room, avoiding those little monsters and still avoiding "ghosts". '.
Some people have been eliminated one after another, and now everyone's idea is not to be caught easily, otherwise unless the little monster's ability is suitable, it will be difficult to catch nimble humans in a limited time only by relying on a single attack or agile little monster.
After all, to get to the current scene, unless it is one-to-many, it is very unrealistic to let a monster exit in just 10 minutes, but Xue Qiao's little tree monster is very suitable for the current situation.
The little monster that has been upgraded for the third time is no longer the one that needs pollen to spawn trees. As long as the little tree monster flicks its twigs, towering trees will immediately rise from the ground and destroy the road. It makes human beings trapped in a narrow place, and then the two little monsters face each other, and Xue Qiao will run along the trunk of the little monster, just touching people directly.
At least that's how Xue Qiao caught someone when he was first cast as a 'ghost'.
The three of Xiangjia searched from room to room, and on the way, they met Feathered Serpent who was still reading with gusto. Feathered Serpent's sense is very keen, as long as Xiang Jia's eyes are cast, he will show a beautiful smile, It was obvious that he knew humans very well.
As the hide-and-seek game time passed by every minute and every second, the castle once again became the battlefield between humans and "ghosts". After all, in terms of hiding places, this kind of castle with many rooms is more suitable for hiding. empty.
After all, this castle is a monster. When it was sleeping, no matter how many scars the little monsters carved on its body, even if a house was blown up, it could return to its original shape within ten seconds, from another level. In terms of appearance, it is also a very suitable place to hide and erase traces.
Xiang Jia and the others also met Fu Tu. That strong man with extraordinary skills took a few hard glances at the little slime on Xiang Jia's shoulders, but he didn't take the initiative to provoke trouble. He must have competed with Qilin for the golden lotus once. At that time, Xiang Zhen's almost invincible defense was severely swayed, so the memory is deep.
Of course, it is also possible that Fu Tu only had one little monster at that time, while Xiang Jia had three full monsters. Fu Tu didn't want to be out for nothing at this time. The other party is a 'human' case.
Skipping this unpleasant episode, the trip of the three of them to find paintings was quite smooth.
Xue Qiao's luck really wasn't built. When the big clock rang for the eighth time, they finally came to the room with the panda frame, and Xue Qiao found it again in a wardrobe embedded in the stone wall. that painting.
In fact, everyone saw the same place, but whether it was Xiang Jia who lifted the curtain, or Zhao Ming who climbed into and pushed a pair of exquisite jade screens, they were not as lucky as Xue Qiao. The place where the panda portrait was found, In this regard, Xiang Jia and Zhao Ming could only accept their fate.
What can I do if I don't accept my fate.
In order to prevent the mural from escaping again, Zhao Ming immediately sat down in the closet, and was going to stare at the painting until he was old. Who knew that with a slight click sound, Xue Qiao took the painting into his hands. The background was black and white. The two-color panda was still sticking out its small pink and tender petal-like tongue, facing Zhao Ming who was rarely in a daze.
Zhao Ming: ……………
That's right, paintings are dead objects, why does he insist on guarding this place?
Xiang Jia's expression was delicate, and he coughed and looked away after Zhao Ming glared at him fiercely: "Then where is it safer for us to go now?"
To be honest, it’s a bit dangerous to just stay in one fixed place, not to mention that all the furniture that can turn into monsters are running wildly in the whole villa. Only some places connected to the castle and some large sundries can be used Hiding, but more sundries are small gadgets, like some vases, it is difficult to hide a foot without props let alone Tibetans.
The three of them looked at each other with the picture frame, and after a while, Zhao Ming pointed to the roof: "Would you like to go to the roof?"
Xue Qiao looked at Xiang Jia, Xiang Jia thought for a while and nodded: "All right, there is no absolutely safe place anyway."
"I'm holding the picture frame?" Zhao Ming stretched out his hand with a smile, but Xiang Jia took two steps forward, just standing between Zhao Ming and Xue Qiao: "Don't worry, leave it to Brother Xue Qiao, look at how thin you are!" What kind."
Xue Qiao: ……………
Zhao Ming raised his arm and looked at it, and then put his subtle gaze on Xiang Jiana's really thin body. No matter how gentle he looked, he was still a normal, muscular man. On the other hand, this brother………………
Xiang Jia pretended not to see Zhao Ming's teasing eyes, and only greeted Xue Qiao before leaving.
Well, the pace is a little faster, presumably because I was ashamed by my own words.
Zhao Ming adjusted his glasses, turned his head and smiled at Xue Qiao beside him: "Brother Xue Qiao, let me hold the picture frame?"
Xue Qiao switched the picture frame from the right hand to the left, and strode forward without shaking Zhao Ming. Since the novice level passed, his and Yun Qianqian's perception of Zhao Ming fell to the bottom. When they came to their mansion, both of them would just roll their eyes at Zhao Ming.
Zhao Ming sighed, obviously understanding his image in Xue Qiao's eyes, so he sighed very sadly, and seemed to mutter unintentionally: "How come one or two are so hostile to me, let's forget about that little girl, anyway Not anymore, are you a child too..."
Xue Qiao's back froze for a moment, obviously stabbed by Zhao Ming's words. Since Yun Qianqian left, Xue Qiao rarely mentioned this little girl. It's not that he doesn't miss her, but he doesn't want to let her go. The air between him and Xiang Jia just got worse.
That little girl was his family, even in just one and a half years, they ate and lived together, she was his younger sister, they escaped death, but the story came to an end at such an abrupt time.
Xue Qiao couldn't help but think of Xue Kai when he was sad. After Yun Qianqian disappeared, he couldn't cheer up for a long time. No matter what he did, he seemed to be able to see the shadow of the little girl next to him. She was still so cute. Lively and carefree, but what about Xue Kai.
After he entered the city, he entered Xue Kai's name on the designated panel of the tablet. Xue Kai was still working. In Xue Kai's office, which he was familiar with, Xue Kai was immersed in his work, but the state surprised Xue Qiao. He looked tired, with thick dark circles under his eyes, and sat bent over in front of the office chair, looking stooped.
Xue Qiao turned the tablet, pulled in the distance between the camera and Xue Kai, and the camera passed over piles of thick documents, showing Xue Kai's tired face and the small desk.
Xue Kai and Xue Qiao in this state were only seen at the funeral of their parents. At that time, although Xue Kai was tired, he was still like a hastily polished sword. Even though it was still not sharp enough, he showed himself without any sign of weakness edge.
Xue Qiao had never seen Xue Kai showing weakness, but after his death, he saw it on that small tablet.
This is the second time for Xue Qiao to lose a relative who is connected by blood. One can imagine the severe blow. However, with the passage of time, Xue Kai's condition has improved a little bit. After all, the deceased has passed away, but the living is still alive. Wanting to move forward, Xue Qiao also gradually relaxed, and her desire to go back gradually faded away.
So Xue Qiao actually decided to live in the city like this, just like Yu He.
Ever since Yun Qianqian met Yu He, she yearned for Yu He's life very much, or even if she hadn't met Yu He, Yun Qianqian would want to stay in this place sooner or later. She revealed her thoughts in front of Xiang Jia, but in fact, Yun Qianqian had told Xue Qiao about this matter more than once in private.
Speaking of trust, Yun Qianqian naturally trusts Xiang Jia more, because Xiang Jia is more reliable, but in terms of intimacy, Xue Qiao, who can still play with him, can share these secret thoughts with the little girl.
But the day after Yun Qianqian seriously expressed her thoughts to Xue Qiao, and wanted to discuss with Xiang Jiaye, the little girl suddenly disappeared.
At that time, Xue Qiao deeply felt Xue Kai's mood.
It was only at that time that Xue Qiao realized that the photo of him and Xue Kai brothers laughing with each other's shoulders had disappeared from Xue Kai's desk.
He had never paid attention to such small details before, but only then did he know that Xue Kai was in too much pain for his departure, even if he saw the face in the photo, there would be sorrow and sorrow in his heart.
But time is the best medicine to wash away scars. A few months after Yun Qianqian's death, Xue Qiao is no longer in such pain that she can't eat anymore. He turned his head, clenched his teeth, and slowly turned red around his eyes.
Zhao Ming's gold-rimmed glasses reflected an inconspicuous white light, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, as if he was expecting Xue Qiao to rush towards him——
"Brother Xue Qiao, why don't you come soon?"
A calm voice broke the tense atmosphere between the two, and Xiang Jia poked his head from the door on one side with a smile on his face: "Brother Xue Qiao goes first, let Kaka pay attention."
"Okay." Xue Qiao immediately agreed, leaving Zhao Ming behind, and walked towards the door with big strides. The hem of his clothes flickered and disappeared at the door. Zhao Ming also walked towards the door at a slow pace, very relaxed. She looked lazy, but when she passed by Xiang Jia, a sharp pair of scissors pressed against her abdomen.
Xiang Jia's wrist with cuffs exposed was terribly thin, which was the root cause of his serious illness when he was a child. Even the delicate and comfortable life in the monster city could not raise his flesh, but even if Xiang Jia's wrist was so thin Thin and thin, it seemed as if it would break if you broke it, but the scissors in that hand were still very sharp and chilly.
"What's the matter? Brother Xiang Jia?" Zhao Ming raised his head slightly and looked at Xiang Jia's face calmly. Xiang Jia was a little taller than him. From Xue Qiao's perspective, he couldn't see what Xiang Jia was doing at all.
"Why did you tease Brother Xue Qiao?" Xiang Jia still had a smile on his face, and even agreed when Xue Qiao turned around to greet him. Looking at Zhao Ming's face, he felt that he had never had such an acting moment.
Zhao Ming obviously sensed Xiang Jiana's sharp murderous anger. The three-headed dogs had all raised their heads, and Xiang Zhen also stretched out more than a dozen thin claws.
Zhao Ming carefully looked at Xiang Jia's face, looked at the anger in his dark eyes, then lowered his head, looked at the scissors on his abdomen, suddenly smiled, and held down his little monster with one hand, his smile was the same as always Falseness is like a mask:
"It was just a small mention of your child, and Xue Qiao got angry. Before I recovered, you pointed the scissors at me again. After all, you are still your ally. Can you stop targeting me like this? ?”
"Hey? You said it very lightly. I didn't know that Captain Zhao Ming would accidentally say such a thing. It really doesn't fit your character." Xiang Jia's hand remained motionless, neither moved nor made any further progress. His tone was low, trembling with unbearable anger:
"If you dare to say such a thing again, we will break up the team. Don't say that you will not give you Captain Zhao Ming face." Xue Qiao is one of Xiang Jia's most precious friends since he arrived here, and it is also the responsibility that Xiang Jia thinks he must bear. Jia would never allow others to trick Xue Qiao like this under his nose.
Zhao Ming smiled slightly, put his left hand lightly on Xiang Jia's hand, and pressed down, Xiang Jia's hand slowly dropped, and finally retracted his scissors.
"Don't have a next time." Xiang Jia turned around and walked towards Xue Qiao who was obediently waiting for him not far away, and Zhao Ming followed beside him, neither far nor near.
"Then how about you really trust me once?" Zhao Ming pointed at Xue Qiao: "I won't even let me take the picture frame, and I won't run away with it."
Xiang Jia kept his mouth shut, and ignored Zhao Ming's remarks. After all, the two of them have different purposes to cooperate temporarily here, and they want to have no gaps?That is absolutely impossible.
You must know that no one has ever entered that secret room, Xue Qiao just glanced at it, and didn't even see the complete layout inside, let alone know what's inside.
If there is silver water stone inside, Xiang Jia will naturally have a good discussion with Zhao Ming on the issue of interests, and a dispute will inevitably occur at that time, but if there are lotus flowers inside...
It is even more impossible for Xiang Jia to give up to Zhao Ming.
The castle is an ancient castle with a pointed top and a platform like a cannon tower in ancient times. A small white flower swayed in the crack of the wall, turning a white corolla in a very humane way. Two minutes later, the three of them climbed onto the platform one after the other.
Not far from the platform is the bell tower Xiang Jia wiped his sweat, sat on the ground and took a deep breath, Xue Qiao sat not far away holding the picture frame, a little far away from Zhao Ming, Zhao Ming put it in his pocket, He sat next to Xiang Jia.
Xiang Jia glanced at Zhao Ming in distaste, but he didn't move his position again. Zhao Ming looked innocent, leaned next to Xiang Jia, tilted his head, and started the topic in a way of talking with an old friend:
"It's still ten minutes before the bell rings, so you're staying here?"
"Otherwise?" Xiang Jia replied indifferently, not intending to chat with Zhao Ming at all.
"Okay, then do you know the conditions for meeting the City Death God?"
Zhao Ming still tilted his head, his voice was very soft, and he changed the subject very abruptly, but Xiang Jia's movements gradually became stiff. He tilted his head stiffly, and tried hard to relax himself, not letting the Xue Qiao was too worried:
"What did you say?"
