Gu Zhiqi noticed Su Yunling’s speechlessness, lightly coughed, and stopped making up lies, "I took a mission to rescue the seven professors kidnapped by Angel."
Su Yunling nodded.
Yesterday during dinner, he had guessed that the child might be here for the kidnapping of the seven professors, and it turned out to be true.
However...
"Did you co alone?" Su Yunling asked, furrowing his brows slightly.
Gu Zhiqi shook his head, "No."
Su Yunling furrowed his brows slightly and asked, "The two people with you yesterday?"
One had his Ancient Martial Arts abolished, the other was sick and frail, obvious liabilities. Having them with him would be worse than the child acting alone.
Gu Zhiqi shook his head.
Su Yunling: ?
With a questioning look in his eyes, he looked at Gu Zhiqi.
Gu Zhiqi: "I haven’t t them yet, but it will be soon."
After saying that, Gu Zhiqi did not say any more and turned over to get off the box.
Seeing this, Su Yunling followed suit, standing beside Gu Zhiqi, he asked, "How did you discover the base is here?"
"I used divination," Gu Zhiqi said, raising his hand in front of Su Yunling, demonstrating a divination gesture.
Seeing this, Su Yunling smiled, "Kid, pretty impressive."
Gu Zhiqi raised her eyebrows, then walked straight to the corner and sat down. She slightly lifted her eyes and looked at Su Yunling, "I need to ditate to recover my vital energy, are you leaving?"
Su Yunling raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Zhiqi, "Do you think I would leave you and go alone?"
Gu Zhiqi remained silent.
She didn’t know if Su Yunling would leave her and go alone, but if it were Su Yunling needing to ditate and recover his vital energy, she would surely leave him and go alone.
Although Gu Zhiqi didn’t say anything, Su Yunling could sowhat guess what she was thinking. He slightly twitched his mouth, squatted down to et her gaze, and lightly rubbed the top of her head, "ditate, I’ll guard you."
Gu Zhiqi looked at Su Yunling for a few seconds and spoke, "Next ti, if you need to ditate, I’ll guard you."
That would be fair exchange.
Su Yunling: ...
"Then I thank you in advance?"
Gu Zhiqi sat cross-legged and asked, "How many boats have you boarded?"
Su Yunling: "Four."
Gu Zhiqi nodded, took out so papers from her storage bracelet, and handed them to Su Yunling, "There are seven boats in total, these are my records, see if they help."
She handed the papers to Su Yunling.
Su Yunling was montarily stunned, then took the papers from Gu Zhiqi.
The papers included carefully drawn nautical maps and detailed notes on each boat’s guard situation, captive personnel, experint contents, and more.
Su Yunling looked at the drawings in his hand and fell into a long silence.
A long while later, he glanced at Gu Zhiqi, seeing her already ditating and regulating her breathing, Su Yunling ended up saying nothing.
He looked at Gu Zhiqi for several seconds, then shifted his gaze back to the papers in his hand.
**
Half an hour later, Gu Zhiqi finished ditating, and Su Yunling was still studying those papers.
The movent from Gu Zhiqi getting up drew Su Yunling’s attention to her. Seeing her done with regulating her breathing, Su Yunling asked, "Recovered?"
Gu Zhiqi nodded and walked up to Su Yunling.
Su Yunling put away the papers and handed them back to Gu Zhiqi, "Have you boarded the other boats yet?"
