The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined
Chapter 174: Strange Things in the Theater (22)
There was an eerie darkness, and the surrounding lights could not even illuminate that area.
"Ugh—!"
Immediately afterwards, Guangsheng's terrified scream was heard in the darkness, just like the scream of the shop assistant that night.
The few people were silent, and soon the night was so quiet that not even a sound could be heard.
Mu Hanxing's heart choked and she began to feel uncomfortable. She clenched her fists and her whole body was shaking. Although she didn't like Guangsheng, if it wasn't for her just now...
A big hand hugged her. It was Feng Xiao who was beside her who gently hugged her and whispered, "This has nothing to do with you. In such a desperate situation, who could have thought that this would happen? He didn't die at your hands, but from his own cowardice."
She turned around and glanced at Feng Xiao. Under the light, he was looking at her with a worried look on his face. His eyes were so beautiful, as if he could see through her at this moment.
At this moment, a "whoosh" sound was heard by his ears. Mu Hanxing didn't even see when the ghost came. The swift ghost had already taken Guangsheng's body away from the place and disappeared completely out of thin air. There was no time to catch up.
There is no time to look back and forth and find out my own responsibilities.
She patted Feng Xiao's hand, forced herself to calm down, and said firmly: "Keep going, we can't lose any more people, just now... it was my fault, I should have let Gong Yu carry him first."
Gong Yu finally understood what was going on, but in his eyes, the weak will remain weak all their lives if they don't strengthen themselves. Do they have to keep finding a crutch to survive?
He didn't care at all, and only said to Mu Hanxing: "City Lord, it's not that no one went to save him. There was plenty of time to leave before the lights were turned off. Jingchen even handed the whip to him, but he didn't catch it in time. Moreover, even if I hadn't carried him just now, he could have jumped there by himself..."
Gong Yu pointed in a direction and said that it was not far from where Guangsheng was. Any mortal could jump into the new light source with a simple leap.
"So, there's no need for you to blame yourself. Does your life and death have to be in the hands of others? A man with his courage, even if he was saved just now, what about the future?" Gong Yu analyzed very rationally.
Chuntao sighed sadly and said nothing more.
The rest of the people just remained silent.
Mu Hanxing frowned and said in a deep voice: "I understand. Let's continue to rush to the stage. Be careful. Your life... is in your own hands. Don't be lucky, and don't always rely on others. Let's go."
"Be careful, the lights in front and behind will suddenly disappear." Jingchen reminded from a distance. As he spoke, the light above his head began to flicker, and he hurried away.
Several people began to speed up their pace in the theater at night. The flickering candle lights in front of them turned into death warrants, causing people to panic and fear.
As they walked, everyone paid attention to the few scattered guards in the city at night. At this time, Chuntao saw another one with her sharp eyes. The guard was in a narrow alley, facing the "bustling" "people" on the long street.
Feng Xiao continued to throw the spiritual feather over to see the color clearly. This time, the guard's color was white, but no one could guarantee whether he could ask.
Just as Mu Hanxing was about to go over, Chuntao looked up and gave her a serious look: "City Lord, I'll go ask."
She was stunned for a moment, looking at Chuntao's serious eyes, and subconsciously grabbed his hand. Although he was in the appearance of a man now, psychologically Mu Hanxing always regarded him as her best friend. At this moment, she panicked and was really afraid that Chuntao would be in danger. Even if he was an immortal, who could guarantee his safety?
"No, I won't let you go." Mu Hanxing held his hand tightly.
"City Lord, after all, I am a citizen of Fuyue City. Besides, you have been wandering outside and I have not been able to find you and do anything for you. I can't always stay by your side and do nothing with a clear conscience." Chuntao felt very guilty. As the city lord's personal attendant, he was always not by her side when she was in danger.
"Don't say anything. No one move. I'm going." Mu Hanxing had made up his mind.
Feng Xiao was about to speak, but Mu Hanxing shook her head and said, "Don't persuade me. I'll go. Jingchen, come here and protect Su Miaoying."
Jingchen knew that she could be quite stubborn sometimes, so he said nothing more and returned to the main group to look at Su Miaoying.
When she saw him coming and was about to leave, Su Miaoying, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Wait a minute, I suddenly remembered a little thing, I wonder if it can help."
Mu Hanxing's ears perked up: "You say."
"I just heard from Mr. Feng that the 'red belt' is specially used to defend against foreign enemies... I heard from my elders before that although the former Bo Kingdom had weak military strength, the most powerful army in the city was the Red Cloud Army. The flag of the Red Cloud Army was mainly red, and the soldiers' clothes were also dark red, so red was a symbol of 'guarding' for the Bo Kingdom."
Su Miaoying's words made Jing Chen think carefully about the contents of the scroll. Although there was no detailed record about the deployment of troops in the city, he could use this line of thought to deduce what the other colors represent. If red represents "guardianship" and black represents "judgment", then what do the remaining yellow and white represent? Can he make some inference?
"I asked about the 'yellow belt' and found out that the 'red belt' is for defending against the enemy." Feng Xiao continued, "My guess is that in the Bo Kingdom, yellow represents nobility and gentleness, because the Lan family, including Princess Lanqin, usually wears golden clothes when they are in folk activities, and people like Princess Lanqin very much."
"Do you know any other historical stories related to the color white?" Mu Hanxing glanced at Su Miaoying, then at Yan Chen.
The two of them were silent, frowning and recalling carefully.
At this time, Mu Hanxing thought of some corners. She didn't know if they could be used, so she said, "Generally speaking, ancient countries or tribes would simplify things in nature into symbols as a totem belief. Colors are more likely to be regarded as a kind of national worship. Does the Earldom have any beliefs? Anything related to colors?"
When she said that, Jingchen's eyes lit up, and he said, "There is no Bo country, but the Xirong people have a totem, and the totem is the shape of a dog, so they are also called 'Quanrong', and the name of this dog is called 'White Wolf Dog'."
Everyone was shocked. Could it be that the white color refers to the Western Rong people?
So can the "white" that exists in the Earldom represent an enemy?
Feng Xiao grabbed Mu Hanxing as soon as he heard it, and said anxiously: "No! You can't go! If white represents 'enemy', the possibility of danger is greater!"
She also wanted to find the yellow guards to ask, but she didn't see any on her way here from Ziyun Inn. The black ones were even more dangerous. She even suspected that the safest "yellow" would not appear at night!
