Chapter 19 The Ambition of the Underbeating
Tong Xi's biggest ability, in addition to nonsense, is also very good in water.
According to normal thinking, he should take Ji Feixue, who was already unconscious, and when the water level rose to the top of the cave, he should escape from the place where the high priest had appeared.
But Tong Xi didn't do that, because he knew that the high priest would definitely think of this, so he would definitely block the road, and at the same time, he would set up a powerful mechanism waiting for them, and there was only one way to die when they went up.
Although Tong Xi sucked the poison out of Ji Feixue's wound in time, the residual toxin still made Ji Feixue lose his combat effectiveness, in this case, how dare Tong Xi take the risk?
In the end, Tong Xi chose a cave out of the water, and when the water level in the cave rose to a certain level, he dragged Ji Feixue into the water and went against the current.
There are no insects washed out of the cave by the water, which means that there is another way out of the cave, and such a large amount of water cannot be done by a small gap.
Facts have proved that Tong Xi's judgment was right.
After swimming into the cave against the current, there seemed to be a huge suction force inside, sucking Tong Xi and Ji Feixue towards the other end of the cave, and just when Tong Xi was a little unable to hold on, a bright light finally appeared in front of him.
Fighting up the last remaining strength to swim towards the light, a moment later, with a "whoosh!", the exhausted two finally rushed out of the water.
It was already dawn outside, and they were on a calm lake, with a small boat fishing on the lake.
Two people suddenly appeared in the water, startling the fishing man, and when he saw Tong Xi dragging someone in his hand, he thought that someone was drowning, so he hurriedly rowed the boat over, and then with the help of Tong Xi, he struggled to drag Ji Feixue up.
When Tong Xi was dragged onto the boat by Lao Suo, Tong Xi didn't even have time to say thank you, so he collapsed directly on the boat, and then gasped like a bellows.
Looking up at the blue sky, it was still that strange sky, but Tong Xi seemed to have a dream, and everything seemed so illusory...
"This little brother, your wife is seriously injured, you have to hurry up and see Langzhong"
Lao Suo's words interrupted Tong Xi's thoughts, slowly sat up, looked at Ji Feixue beside him with his eyes closed, and nodded: "My daughter-in-law is disobedient, and if she makes a little awkwardness, she will look for death and life, I have lost my way, do you know that there is a Lang Zhong near here, as long as I can save my daughter-in-law, I will thank you very much."
When I sat up, I found that there was a high mountain on one side of the lake, and I couldn't tell that the mountain was where the imperial tomb of the Ji family was located, and on the other side was a plain with no end in sight.
Tong Xi is not a person from this time and space, and it is the first time to come out, so it is strange not to get lost.
Although Tong Xi and Ji Feixue are quite embarrassed, they are gorgeously dressed, so Lao Suo will mistake them for husband and wife.
Listening to Tong Xi's words, Lao Su couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, and he didn't know what he was sighing about.
The old man did not speak, but picked up his oars and rowed the boat towards the shore.
Lao Suo's home is by the lake, and there is an old woman at home, the old woman is very enthusiastic about Ji Feixue and Tong Xi, but she has no good face for her husband, and scolds and scolds, just like a slave.
Tong Xi suddenly understood a little why Lao Suo sighed on the boat just now, it turned out that he was also a strict wife!
Ji Feixue has a strong physique, and the toxins were cleaned out by Tong Xi in time, and after being treated with herbs by the old woman, she fell asleep deeply, and there was no high fever or infection.
Seeing this, Tong Xi finally put his mind at ease, after this experience, the two can be said to be friends of life and death, and he doesn't want Ji Feixue to have an accident.
After asking Lao Su about the way to the capital, Tong Xi couldn't help frowning deeply.
The high priest is not dead, maybe there will be some moths, and according to Ji Feixue, all countries of the human race worship the same gods, and the high priests of each country are also responsible.
The high priest of the Great Moon Country is a member of the demon clan, who dares to guarantee that the high priests of other countries have also been stolen by the demon clan?
Tong Xi could feel that the demon clan's plans were very big, and he had to inform Ji Huan as soon as possible, and then let Ji Huan inform several other countries.
In a hurry, Ji Feixue is like this now, how can Tong Xi bear to take her to a hurry, let alone leave her alone.
"Tong Xi, are you there?"
Ji Feixue's soft call suddenly interrupted Tong Xi's thoughts, turned around and walked quickly into the room, and came to the bed to take a look, but saw that Ji Feixue had opened her eyes and was struggling to sit up.
"Your injuries are not healed, lie down quickly!"
"Come and help me up, I have something to say to you"
Ji Feixue was stubborn, and couldn't help but say, she was about to sit up.
Tong Xi was helpless, so he had to reach out to help her, and before his hand touched Ji Feixue's body, he felt a black shadow flash in front of him, and then he heard a "pop!" sound, but it turned out that Ji Feixue was slapped heavily on the face.
Although it was a serious injury, Ji Feixue's palm was still extremely heavy, and after finishing it, she fell back to the bed again and breathed rapidly.
Tong Xi was blinded, covered his hot face and looked at Ji Feixue, who was short of breath, and said angrily: "Why are you crazy? Do you know that I saved you?"
"Take advantage of me, it's not too much to kill you a hundred times"
Ji Feixue spoke in a low voice, obviously not wanting Lao Suo and his wife to hear it.
Tong Xi understood, it turned out to be because of this incident, that is to say, Ji Feixue had been pretending to be dizzy before.
Having said that, joking about the reputation of other girls is really not very authentic.
Thinking of this, he covered his face and smiled bitterly: "Isn't this also for convenience? Who knows if there are any high priests' comrades in the vicinity?"
"Isn't it okay to count me wrong? Don't get too excited, heal your injuries first."
"I can't die of my injuries, and if I want to die, I'll be angry with you"
Although Ji Feixue's voice was still cold, the words she said were strange, and her face softened.
"We must rush back to the capital as soon as possible, and we can't let Your Majesty be deceived by the High Priest again"
Tong Xi nodded, and pondered for a moment before saying: "There is one thing you have to remember, the country cannot be without a high priest, and the people need faith."
Ji Feixue was slightly stunned, then understood, nodded and said, "I will report to Your Majesty truthfully."
"Come here, help me up"
"Why are you going to beat someone again? Tell you, because you're a woman, I won't beat you, don't think I'm a bully."
"I promise not to beat you, come and I'll touch you, are you a real eunuch?"
Listening to Ji Feixue's words, Tong Xi subconsciously covered his body and said with a shocked face: "I'll go! Your request is too outrageous, right? I'm a serious person."
"Why are you so shameless? I want to check your body from your pulse, it doesn't take too much trouble."
"Hehe, forget it, before the miracle is completed, I am definitely a fake eunuch."
"I'm getting more and more curious, how could a man like you be willing to be a servant in the palace, and what are you hiding from us?"
"Didn't you say it? The time has not yet come, and it is useless to say more."
"Okay, I won't force you, so tell me, what are you going to do next?"
"I want to be the first brother of Ouchi, the leader of the eunuchs"
"Y-You still want to stay in the palace?"
"yes, what else?"
"Get out of here! By the way, bring me my sword, I'm going to kill you"...
I don't know if it's because of the capricious temper of the injured person, or if Ji Feixue is this character, when she learned that Tong Xi was going to stay in the palace, she suddenly became angry...
