Chapter 526: Finale (19)
Xia Qing found the raised stone.
Or rather, she accidentally tripped over herself and pressed the rock.
"Yes, I was still a child at that time, and my height must not be high, how could I press to the height we have now..... yes, yes, you are really smart, Xia Qing!"
Concubine Li couldn't extricate herself excitedly. This secret passage can be said to be a memory of her childhood. But more importantly, finding this secret passage can be said to have brought a new beginning to the two of them who were at a loss.
"Are you going to come with us too?"
Concubine Li turned her head sideways and looked at the people in black who were there without saying a word.
Sure enough, the people in black still didn't react, just stood there quietly watching their every move.
"This group of guys is really confusing. I don't even know if they're here to protect us or what......."
Xia Qing had already taken the lead in entering, and beckoned to Concubine Li, who was standing there without moving, at the entrance of the cave, "Niangniang, come in quickly, it's so dark inside, the sooner we get back there, the sooner this matter can be over......."
"Okay, I got it. ”
Concubine Li turned her head and no longer looked at the people in black, she lifted the skirt and carefully burrowed into the dark passage.
"I've forgotten the specific route inside, after all, I also walked casually at that time, and it was my luck to be able to get there, and it's not clear if the two of us can get there this time......."
"You had that luck then, and I'm sure it will be this time. Let's walk together, you can think about the route by the way, and you can find the ....... if you can't walk."
"If only I could be as optimistic as you...... You guy, you're so optimistic that I envy you......"
Concubine Li looked at the dark dark road, and she was really not optimistic. This dark passage is not long, but it is not short, if one accidentally goes wrong, it will take a long, long time to reach the destination.
It's okay to go right, but it's really troublesome to go wrong.
"Why not be optimistic, it's a day to be happy, and it's a day to be unhappy. Since we have been in this place, and since we have been involved in this matter, we might as well be optimistic and happily solve this matter!
Xia Qing took out a fire fold from his arms. This is also what Bai Yu Shi gave to her before leaving. Now that they think about it, Bai Youshi is a prophet, giving her everything they might need to use, and for them now, this place is just a fire breaker.
After a "snap", the fire fold was smoothly lit by Xia Qing, and the dark passage suddenly became bright.
"It's exactly the same as it was back then...... Even this path has not changed...... Looks like no one has been here for so many years...... This place has really become a secret base for me and the Emperor......."
Concubine Li took advantage of the light of the fire fold and looked at a fork in the road not far away, "There will be a fork in the road so soon, where are we going......
Xia Qing took the fire fold and slowly approached the fork, Concubine Li followed behind her,
"Xia Qing, if it's you, which direction are you going?"
"I don't know, but I think I'll go to the right because I prefer that direction. ”
"Okay, then go from the right!"
"Ahhh.....h
Xia Qing was stunned by Concubine Li's decisiveness.
Listened to her advice so decisively, if she said in the wrong direction, wouldn't she be a sinner for the ages?
"I think you can think about it again! This is not a joke......."
"I've thought about it very clearly, just go to the right, I like this direction as well. ”
Concubine Li didn't care about anything else, and took the lead in the passage on the right.
"Ah, mother, you wait for me...... The fire fold is still with me. ”
Xia Qing followed Concubine Li and the two walked one after the other.
From the moment they had just chosen the road on the right, they had not seen a fork in the road again. It's always been a road to the end.
But what made Xia Qing very worried was that the road to the end was really a bit long, and she felt that she couldn't see it at a glance, and she could only see a black thing "beckoning" to them in front.
"I think it's a little weird. Why is this road so long? I remember that in the past, even though I walked for a long time, it was not as long as it is today?"
"Could it be that you are mistaken, mother? After all, you were just a child at that time. It's normal to have memory problems at that time....... can you try to recall your memories again?"
"I don't need to remember it, this road is similar to what I remember, but really, I always feel that it is not so long. Moreover, it wasn't as dark as it is now, it was very bright at that time, and it was only dark when it was at the end..... which I can understand as no one has been here for a long time. But the road doesn't change so much, does it?"
Concubine Li is really hard to understand, how did the road in her memory become so strange?
In the final analysis, the road from here to the study of the main hall is the same, whether it is the length or the distance, it is always the same length.
Because over the years, no one has touched the palace at all.
One is that there is no time to move the palace, and the other is that the treasury does not have so much money to repair the palace.
"It's not good, it's just that you're misremembering. After all, this road is always dead, right? How could there be a big change...... Ahh
Xia Qing's words ended in a scream.
"What's wrong with you!!"
Concubine Li was also frightened by Xia Qing's screams.
"Ah.......hhhhh
Xia Qing regretted that her eyes were so bright for the first time!
She could see the white bones in front of her clearly, and she couldn't hold the fire fold in her hand steadily, and she felt that her hands were really shaking.
"Don't be afraid. Let's go and see ...... together."
Concubine Li's voice was also a little shaky, after all, they were just two women, it was strange to see such a corpse there, it was strange to calm down, right?
"No....don't..... can we not go..... I'm so scared......!
Xia Qing grabbed Concubine Li's arm and stopped her from moving forward, "No one has come to this place for so many years. It's not a simple thing to have bones there, isn't it? It's not good to say....... it's ....... to say it's bad."
"What's the bad one?"
Concubine Li was still a little scared, but now she is not afraid.
She was amused by Xia Qing's face full of fear.
This guy is really cute.
"It's hard to say...... I don't know! Don't go over anyway! I promised to protect you!"
"Thank you, but, anyway, we'll have to go check it out. ”
