Ling Ai rushed all the way over, obviously extremely tired, her beautiful face was rarely flushed, and her forehead was covered with beads of sweat. She gasped, holding a bulky arquebus in one hand and wiping her face with the other.

She must have come straight here from some rather formal occasion. She was originally wearing a palace dress that was very inconvenient to move, and in order to hurry, she had to tie the palace skirt that mopped the floor in a casual knot at her knees; Ying Ying's waist was wrapped around a straps that held the spare magazine in place; The original delicate and complicated sleeves have long been torn off; The palace silk that decorated the neckline was removed by her and tied up tightly with her long hair.

Her honor, even if she was a little embarrassed, still looked like a princess who had fled.

The arquebus is a rather luxurious armor weapon, and the fuel used is real millennia, from the power system of the arquebus to the projectile inside the chamber. After Yu Mojian's military rank was promoted to the rank of Xiaodutong, she was given the right to use many new types of armor, but even so, she was not currently qualified to use the arquebus.

As soon as she stopped, the muzzle of the arquebus in her hand was raised, and a large string of projectiles erupted, shooting at the four walls of the cave that Yu Moji had tried to enter with some special pattern. Under the impact of the projectile, a rain of arrows that were even more violent than Fang just now immediately invaded from all directions. Ling Ai, who was standing on the other side of the cave, did not move, just calmly observed all this.

It wasn't until the rain of arrows stopped that she suddenly rushed in, and although her movements were swift, she didn't touch any of the mechanisms until she rushed to the side of Yu Moji.

That's how she used to determine the location of the mechanism.

Yu Mojin was surprised and delighted, poked his head out, and was just about to say hello to Ling Ai when he heard a sharp whistle not far away again.

Yu Moji muttered, "What's going on?" ”

Ling Ai had already seen her, so she just smiled at her, made a silent gesture, and then walked over and wrote a few words in the palm of Yu Moji's hand, "Take me to Jinniang." ”

Yu Moji understood it.

In the cave, some sounds can be transmitted far away, and she talks to Ling Ai, even if she deliberately controls the volume, if she doesn't pay attention to it, she is afraid that she will be heard by Lao Meng, who doesn't know where she is.

However, to Yu Moji's helplessness, she turned around and found that she suddenly couldn't remember the way she came.

This was really unexpected.

Although she was not born with a good sense of direction, after entering the Cardinal, she also did a lot of training for her weaknesses. Although the landscape of the cave is extremely complex, it will not lose its direction as soon as you turn around.

Yu Moji stopped, observed silently for a while, and wrote two words in Ling Ai's palm, "Changed."

In this cave, there must be some kind of large machine similar to the Proving Ground, which can quietly change their location. For example, Yu Moji originally remembered that the narrow cave where Lao Meng had placed herself and Jin Niang should be roughly in front of her right, but unconsciously, as the ground moved, she and Ling Ai might have gone around to the other side of the cave.

After all, Ling Ai can be called an internal disciple of the Cardinal, and he leads the position of Lantai's secretary, and has the qualifications to witness the trial, so he is obviously familiar with the set of the trial ground. After a little thought, she understood what Yu Moji meant, and then smiled nonchalantly, just patted the arquebus in her hand lightly, and motioned for Yu Moji to follow.

Ling Ai's set of methods of shooting and positioning, and Yu Moji's throwing shoes to ask for directions when he was admitted to the hospital for the test, is actually the same reason, but the method is much more fancy and complicated. Ling Ai has probably done a lot of similar things, and the movements are smooth, and even reveal a kind of awe-inspiring beauty; But Yu Moji knew very well that to determine which projectile hit the mechanism in such a short period of time was not only a great test of eyesight and memory, but also required extremely accurate decision.

Yu Mojian thought that she didn't have that kind of strength, so she could only follow closely behind Ling Ai, Ling Ai stopped firing, and she had to stop and wait behind; Ling Ai ran with all his might, and Yu Moji had to follow immediately, for fear that if he fell slightly, he would step on the mechanism by mistake.

She followed Ling Ai almost with all her strength, but during this time, the sound of the mechanism activating was still heard everywhere around her, affecting her concentration. As soon as Yu Moji was negligent, he was almost hit by a stone pillar that fell from nowhere.

Seeing this, Ling Ai didn't panic, just stretched out his hand to take the aftermath around, and the other hand used the arquebus as a weapon, blocked several times, and killed a way out of the endless rain of arrows.

Yu Moji was carried in Ling Ai's hands like a helpless chicken. She was so respectful and ashamed to see Ling Ai's Valkyrie-like sassy and heroic posture.

When he was in the Cardinal, Ling Ai's excellent performance far beyond the general reserve was already very impressive, but at that time, Yu Mojin still thought that this was just a gap in talent, which could be made up by hard work; Now she only felt that if she could achieve Ling Ai's level in her lifetime, it would be in vain.

They ran through many caverns with heavy traps along the way. No amount of ammunition will run out. But Ling Ai didn't use ammunition to test the mechanism indiscriminately - every time she passed through the cave, she seemed to have a better grasp of the mechanism here, and a single ammunition shot could instantly determine a large section of the route. Later, she was able to figure out the entire layout of the cave with only three or five shots, and the musket easily passed safely with the ink marks as soon as it was collected.

Yu Mojin was amazed, and was infected by Ling Ai's easy-to-use bearing, and slowly relaxed, gradually having more room to distinguish the situation along the way.

She finally saw a slightly familiar path.

There is a very slender and tall stalagmite, but it is round like a man-made stalagmite. Yu Mojin remembers very well that when she first escaped from the cave, she didn't walk a few steps before she passed this stalagmite with a different shape.

Yu Mojin stepped forward and grabbed Ling Ai and wrote his meaning in the palm of her hand.

Ling Ai nodded, and suddenly said, "Senior, I brought the ink marks back, do you want to come out and have a look?" ”

Yu Moji was about to collapse - according to the meaning of Ling Ai's words, could it be that she and Lao Meng were in the same group?

"I haven't seen you for many days, Xiao Ling, you have grown a lot, and you actually broke through all the way." Lao Meng's voice came from not far away, "Come here, I won't hurt you." ”

Ling Ai didn't know that he had gotten rid of suspicion in Yu Moji's heart, so he actually jumped over quickly.

Even though Yu Moji was still hesitant, he also knew that it was probably safer to follow Ling Ai at this moment, so he immediately followed.

After turning two corners, I arrived at the cave where Lao Meng was.

Jin Niang was still sleeping on the side, but her body was tightly covered with the clothes she had changed before entering the water.

Lao Meng actually went to take the clothes for the two of them.

This person has revealed too many skills in front of Yu Moji, and now she is not very surprised. She speculated that Lao Meng might not need to be exposed to Yuan Zhizhi and Lu Chen. Finding a path to the various karst caves from the complex geology around you may not be difficult for those who are familiar with the landforms.

Yu Moji peeked at Lao Meng, and saw that what Lao Meng was holding in his hand was the medicine bag that Ling Ai had given to Yu Moji before. He smiled wryly, "I should have known that you two little ones have a good relationship. I said that 'Rotten Ke' is useless to Miss Yu at all, it turns out that Xiao Ling, you have already given Mrs. Ling's green bag to her. ”

"'Rotten'?" Yu Moji wondered, "What is that?" ”

"It's a very special drug. Mrs. Ling used to develop this medicine for pain relief, but the effect was comparable to fake death, far exceeding expectations. Lao Meng glanced at Jin Niang and said, "It's really not a good experience to use Rotten Ke." It's just that if I don't let Ah Jin fall asleep, she won't allow me to tie you up here. ”

"Actually, I was just going to get some good medicine for Ink Marks at first." Ling Ai smiled, "It's just that she thought that she would always have to deal with her seniors in the future, so she added some more things to those medicinal herbs." By the way, I made this sachet, not my mother. ”

"You have a small success in the study of Yanjia, and in terms of medical skills, you are not much better than your mother." Lao Meng sighed, "Sure enough, it's a genius." ”

"So, the reason why Jin Niang hasn't woken up is actually because sir, you used this drug?" Yu Mozhen was a little helpless, "Then what are you still calling her for?" ”

"People aren't always sure they're alive, especially in the midst of chaos." Lao Meng said, "You haven't been hit by the rotten Ke, you don't know what it's like to be lost in the void...... In that situation, if you can hear someone familiar calling you, even if you can't find the source of the voice for a while, your heart will be much more reassured. He was a little apologetic in his words, "Ah Jin is innocent after all, I don't want her to sink into a nightmare and be tortured in vain." ”

Yu Moji didn't think so, "...... If it were me, suddenly hearing someone call my name would probably only make me feel even more terrifying. ”

Ling Ai said that he thought so.

Lao Meng shook his head, "You are still young. At my age, I will understand how important human connection is. His warm voice was very low, adding a lot of sadness, "In ancient times, someone strayed into the fairyland and saw the fairy child playing. Before the end of the game, the boy urged him to return, only to find that the axe Ke had already been rotten, and there was no one to return to the hometown. He looked at Ah Jin and said slowly, "When I woke up, I changed the world and the world, and there was no one I knew again." All this connection with the world has faded, do you think he is alive or dead? ”

Lao Meng's words obviously meant to hurt himself, but he was always reluctant to pick out the old things, and his words were simply cloudy.

Yu Moji was not encircled by him, but immediately gave a very firm answer, "Naturally, I am still alive." ”

She thought for a moment and gave herself an example, "In the past ten years, I have been living in Waige, but the old acquaintance that I used to know in Waige can be seen now, speaking of which, I'm afraid there is only one you, Mr. When I first came to the imperial capital, I had no parents, no friends, and I couldn't even enter the door of the Imperial Court. Although she deliberately won Lao Meng's sympathy, when she said this, she instantly felt that her life was really bleak, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly, but the momentum between her words was not extinguished, "But even so, I am still me." I didn't feel like I had died once. ”

"You have a lot of ideas." Lao Meng said, "Well, since you have a green sac, I'm afraid you won't suffer from rotten Ke in this life." But at the same time, there are many things that can be avoided by falling asleep, but you must face them with your sober mind and not escape. The gains and losses are also difficult to decide. ”

"It's certainly a gain." Yu Mojian's smile was slightly bitter, "Anyway, even if I die in the future, I would rather die awake." ”

That's exactly what she wants. She has gone through so many hardships along the way, and there have been many moments of life and death, all because she insisted on waiting for an opportunity for the situation to turn around. So she is more and more convinced that in the crisis, escape is nothing more than sitting still, and only awake people have a glimmer of life. She won't give up until the last minute.

"Young people are fearless, very good, very good." Lao Meng slapped his palms and laughed, but his face was still bitter, and he said to Ling Ai, "Especially you, for the sake of your friends, you are willing to go into the Longtan Tiger's Den alone, even if you are indeed excellent and fearless, but you are really fierce and fearless." ”

"That's nature." Ling Ai smiled and said, "But I didn't come here this time for the ink marks. She turned her head and glanced at Yu Moji apologetically, "I'm here to ask for directions for Mr. Lu." ”
