Chapter 289: The Deepest Depths of the Dungeon
"Chanxue, what are you doing here? Get up! ”
As soon as she saw her kneeling down, she panicked when she made such a big gift, and even asked her to get up.
"Ruyan, you could have avoided this adventure, but you came desperately to save me. This kindness, Ruo Canxue must remember it in her heart. If he is useful in the future, Canxue will not refuse, go to the soup and go to the fire, and will not give up. ”
Ruo Canxue kowtowed deeply, and when she raised her eyes again, her eyes were full of gratitude and gloom.
"Alright, alright. You and I have known each other once, and if I were in your field today, would you surely help each other like this? ”
She was a little embarrassed to be abandoned like smoke, and pretended to be a little angry.
"It must be."
Ruo Canxue replied without thinking about it.
"Isn't that what it takes? Hurry up. ”
Qi Ruyan made a gesture, signaling Ruo Canxue to get up quickly.
"Okay."
Ruo Canxue got up.
But at this moment, dozens of neat footsteps came from the aisle, as if there was the sound of knives and guns cutting across the ground, and a man's thick voice sounded-
"Hurry up! Someone must have infiltrated here! Catch me, and don't let any of them go! Otherwise, it will cost you your heads! ”
Then there was a screeching sound of a long whip falling to the ground!
"Let's go."
Ning Jingchen immediately gave Ruo Canxue a look, and fled back to the stone cave that the ethereal spirit had pulled them into.
Sure enough, within a few seconds of their departure, a burly man with a group of guards rushed to Ruo Canxue's cage.
"What's the noise? Still don't let people sleep? ”
Ruo Canxue pretended to have just woken up, turned out, and stood up impatiently and asked.
Xu is looking at Gu Beiyi's face, this burly man knows the origin of Ruo Canxue, although he felt a little uncomfortable when he heard Ruo Canxue talk like this, he still bowed and said kindly-
"The subordinates are also worried about the safety of the princess, and no one has noticed any signs of outsiders intruding here. The subordinates were worried that these people would be unfavorable to the princess, so they rushed here as soon as possible. disturbed the princess's rest, and hoped that the princess would not be strange. ”
"Who else can there be here but me? Didn't the general take me with him so that I could go on an errand? ”
Ruo Canxue knew that what he said was true, but she calmly approached the iron fence, and instead asked aggressively.
The soldier saw that Ruo Canxue was really angry, Xu is owner had ordered some words, and his violent temper had to endure the anger in his heart and then said with a smile: "Since the princess is safe and sound, then the subordinates will retire first." If there is any suspicious person, the princess can notify us as soon as possible. ”
"Got it."
Ruo Canxue replied impatiently, waved her hand, and signaled that these people could go down.
Before leaving, the soldier looked left and right for a long time, and felt that there was indeed no trace of anyone coming, so he glanced at the guards behind him, and walked back with a trace of doubt.
Not long after the group left, Ning Jingchen and Qi Ruyan walked out from another road in the stone cave.
Along the road are ethereal and carefully carved marks as signs on the must, guiding the two of them forward.
It didn't take long for the two of them to see a bright light coming in, illuminating the exit road very brightly, and faintly visible trees outside.
"Where is this? How is it so familiar? ”
As soon as he got out of the stone cave, he felt that the scenery in front of him was so familiar, and he couldn't help asking.
"This is the back mountain."
The ethereal figure slowly walked out from behind the shadow of the tree, he stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the two of them with a solemn face, and said.
"So, you sent someone to dig out this cave? I don't think the men before me didn't seem to know that there was a secret passage there. ”
Seeing that he was also there, he couldn't help but be happy in his eyes.
- This means that their chances of rescuing Ruo Canxue and Ruo Lingwei will be greatly increased.
"Hmm. Yes. ”
Ethereal smiled and said, "If you want to save her, I'm afraid you won't be able to rely on a few secret passages." You've figured out where they're in the cage, but have you ever thought that if you want it, they'll want it? ”
"You mean ......?"
Ning Jingchen frowned, stepped forward and asked tentatively, "Could it be that as long as we touch one of the cages, even if that is the last cage, the entire dungeon will collapse in an instant?" ”
"Pavilion Lord Ning is really well-informed."
Ethereal nodded slightly, and continued: "When my people studied the mechanisms of this underground palace, they found that the mechanisms here are not unarranged, on the contrary, there are many mechanisms here, and they are interlocking. The reason why it hasn't exerted its power until now is because once one of the links is triggered, it will be a catastrophe. When the time comes, none of them will be able to escape. ”
"So, that's why I haven't made a move until now."
The ethereal spirit landed a solemn gaze on the abandoned body, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
He wanted to speak, but he stopped.
"You're here to save the wilderness?"
Qi Ruyan narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked very suddenly when he thought of something.
"How do you know?"
Ethereal was slightly startled, surprised by the wisdom that was discarded like smoke.
Although his cronies knew about this plan, they didn't disclose it to anyone else, how did she learn about it when she first arrived?
"It's simple. You haven't cared about the affairs of the village, you have been studying the dungeon, and you have figured out the mechanism of each cage, so it can be seen that you must have someone you want to save who is trapped. And this person is very close to you, so it can only be a waste of time. ”
Abandoned like smoke put one hand on the trunk of the tree, half-supported his body, half-held a dog's tail grass in his mouth, and slowly analyzed with a slight smile.
"Thankfully, you're a friend, not an enemy."
Ethereal listened to her analysis, couldn't help but admire, and said half-jokingly.
"Say, where is the wilderness?"
Qu Ruyan took out the dog's tail grass in his mouth, shook it in his hand in a circle, and asked without interest.
- To be honest, it is better for her to take the initiative to save the wilderness than to let her die. However, since this is an ethereal task and choice, she can only do her part.
"Directly below the main hall. But...... It's the last dungeon, the bottom. ”
Ethereal hesitated for a moment, then said slowly after frowning.
"......"
Abandoned like smoke, I suddenly wanted to scold my mother.
She glanced at the ethereal spirit in frustration, and then asked faintly: "What has this desolate Yichen offended people, and it should be locked up so deeply...... In this case, if you want to save others, you must first save him......"
"It stands to reason that it is."
Ethereal looked at her frustrated expression and wanted to scold, and couldn't help but show a doting smile on her lips.
