Chapter 54: The Cage (2)

When Xiao Jiu woke up again, he was in a cage made of rough wood, with thick straw around his body, and several cages side by side, but they were empty, this was a cell, and it was a windowless cell, there were a few faint lights on the wall, the whole cell was extremely dim, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of decay and dampness.

Xiao Jiu paused, wanted to sit up, suddenly found that his hands and feet could not move, looked down, it turned out that there was a silver net tied to his body, the mesh is enough to have the thickness of the head of chopsticks, the mesh is larger than the ordinary fishing net, there is no trace of weaving on the net knot, it seems to be naturally glued together, I can't see what kind of material it is for a while, and I don't have time to look more, the first thing I think of is to get rid of the shackles, I secretly used a few times, but the silver net seems to have taken root on the body, the slightest bit has not moved, and then grinding and rubbing, tossing a stick of incense for a while, and finally it ended in failure, only tired Xiao Jiu panting, only gave up escaping。 Calm down, looked around, of course understood in her heart that it was Yuru who caught her stunned, at this time, Xiao Jiu felt very remorseful, blaming herself for being too careless, and losing her defense against Yuru, although she gave herself the ability to speak, but after all, she was a demon, and she was also a demon who wanted to explore the reason, thinking of this, and then thinking about it, I don't know how long I have been locked up here, where is this, will this be the Falling Cloud Pavilion, will Chu Qing be worried, will Chu Qing come to save herself, Chu Qing can not find here。

In this way, Xiao Jiu lay quietly on the ground helplessly, all kinds of thoughts came to him, and only the faint light on the wall accompanied him, and his heavy gasping sound, I don't know how long it was, there was a sound in his stomach, and only then did he remember that he should have not eaten for a long time, and would he starve to death here.

looked around, in addition to the straw, it was hard ground, a thick cage, not to mention food, even a drop of water could not be found, what did Yuru mean to catch herself back, whether she would eat herself, whether she was arbitrary, or was she instructed by Xiaoxiao.

Just as he was thinking, the door to the cell was gently opened, and then the dim light flickered a few times, and the graceful figure of a woman was projected on the wall, and the sound of footsteps on the stairs was heard again.

After a while, the footsteps came to the top of Xiao Jiu's head, stopped, and then, I heard a woman's proud voice say, "How, Crane Xiao Jiu Great Immortal?"

Xiao Jiu immediately heard that it was Yuru's voice, and an anger rose in his heart, and he shouted with all his might: "Shameless and despicable demon, you let me out." ”

Being scolded by Xiao Jiu loudly, Yuru did not get angry, but "giggled" and said slowly: "I'm just despicable, what can you do with me?" ”

Xiao Jiu was so sarcastic, and his anger was even worse, and he said: "If you have the ability, you let go of me, and we will see the high and low under our hands." ”

Yuru sighed a few times, and said regretfully: "I didn't expect that our Crane Little Nine Great Immortals are so short-tempered, and they are so brainless, they finally caught you back, do you think, I will let you go?"

What the other party said was not unreasonable, and Xiao Jiuyi didn't know what to say for a while, so he just said: "Despicable villain, take advantage of others, what kind of hero is he." ”

Yuru lowered her body, approached Xiao Jiu, and whispered in his ear: "Haven't you heard, only women and villains are difficult to raise, women are despicable villains, and besides, I am a weak woman, so I can't be a hero?"

Xiao Jiu had nothing to say for a while, so he had to open his eyes and say, "You ......"

Yuru said: "What am I, I'm here to bring you food, I'm afraid that you will starve to death." Then I heard the sound of several pieces of porcelain hitting the ground, and then the smell of food came, and later, Yuru said sarcastically: "What, don't you eat?

Xiao Jiuqiang endured his hunger, blocked his breath and still didn't speak, but at this time, his stomach was not angry, and there was a "cooing" sound, which seemed so loud in this silent cell.

Yuru laughed overhead, and said coldly: "What about the food, I put it here, I want to see your relatives, I advise you to save your life." After saying that, there was another sound of footsteps, and it sounded like he was gone.

Xiao Jiu waited for a while, couldn't hear any movement, confirmed that Yuru had really left, and thought about it again, he was really starving to death here, I am afraid that he will never be able to return to Cangqing Mountain, never see Chu Qing, and never see Brother Feng, thinking of this, he suddenly felt that he had strength again, and there was a need to eat, not to mention that the aroma of the meal was really attractive.

Xiao Jiu swallowed his saliva, calmed down, and worked hard, he actually turned over and lay on the ground, raised his eyes with difficulty, and looked forward, only to see a few porcelain plates containing food on the ground in front of him, and a wine jug next to him, Xiao Jiu raised his eyes and looked into the distance, only to see the empty staircase, extending down from above, Yuru was already gone.

Xiao Jiu used all his strength to crawl towards the meal, which was less than three feet away, but he was sweating profusely, but finally climbed to the side of the meal, looked at the chopsticks, and he couldn't move his hands and feet, and he really didn't need chopsticks, so he lay on the meal, and ate directly with his mouth, I don't know if the food is really delicious, or if he has been hungry for too long, and he can't care about what kind of food he eats, but he feels that it is better than any delicious food he has eaten before, and he devoured it.

Xu is eating too fast, feeling choked, his neck was suffocated, his face was red, and he fell down on the wine pot next to him, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, he drank it at the spout, and his only thought at this time was that he couldn't starve to death, and waited for Chu Qing to save himself.

Although he ate unusually ugly, but when he was full, a sense of satisfaction spread throughout his body, and his body and mind were extremely comfortable, Xiao Jiu licked his lips, turned over hard, and lay down on his back, looking at the top of the black hole, I don't know whether it was hope or despair, and I don't know if Chu Qing will laugh at himself when he sees his current appearance, but when he thinks of Chu Qing, a relieved smile is on his face.

In this way, I don't know how long it took, Xiao Jiu fell asleep again, and had many intermittent dreams, dreaming that he had turned into a phase, on the broad river, spreading his beautiful wings, and skimming through the top of the waves; he dreamed that he was thinking about Xiaozhu and bored in the afternoon, bathing in the sun, leisurely picking and combing feathers; and dreamed that he flew to the bottom of the mountain cliff, fighting the long snake, and wherever the iron beak and steel hook went, the gravel flew everywhere and Venus was shining; of course, he also dreamed of Chu Qing, dreaming that he was carrying Chu Qing, facing the afterglow of the setting sun, with a face full of surprise, through the brilliant and incomparable sunset, and flew towards the red sunset; and finally he dreamed that he fell into the mountain stream, The surroundings were pitch black, but there was only one beast's eyes, like bright green points, flashing greed and bloodthirsty, walking towards him step by step, he was afraid and anxious to escape, but his whole body could not move, and he could not even shout any sound even when his mouth was wide open.

Panic and helplessness, and even really felt the beast close to his face panting, with the beast's breathing, with the smell of hot air sprayed on his face one by one, in this moment of crisis, Xiao Jiu's heart tightened, his whole body tensed, and he suddenly opened his eyes, but found that it was pitch black all around, and he couldn't see his five fingers, only the cold touch of the ground came from under his body, and the smell of corruption and dampness that permeated him, and clearly told himself that he was still in the cell, but the lights on the four walls were extinguished at some point, and in the wheezing period, Xiao Jiu felt that someone was turning him, and it was obviously a man, and the man did not speak, but groped in the dark, picked up Xiao Jiu, carried it on his back, walked down the stairs, struggled out of the cell, dodged left and right all the way, walked through the hall, and walked forward breathlessly.

Xiao Jiu lay on the man's back weakly, although he was not sure who this person was, but obviously, this person was helping him escape from the underground cell, at this critical tense moment, he didn't dare to ask who the other party was, and he thought in his heart, hurry, hurry, escape, don't be found and caught.

Finally, a gust of wind blew, he knew at the moment that he had fled outside, and then the man ran for a distance, and put himself down, knowing the sound of Suosuo, the man seemed to be looking for something, and then heard a soft sound, obviously opened a door with a key, Xiao Jiu lay on his back, opened his eyes, and saw the night sky that had not been seen for a long time, the extremely beautiful starry night, there was not a single floating cloud in the sky, and an ethereal crescent moon was hidden in the thousands of stars, like the lips of a beautiful woman smiling, and the shining stars, like jewels, densely sprinkled with the vast and infinite dark blue sky, the milky white Milky Way, across the middle of the sky, obliquely pouring down to the earth。

The night breeze stirred a few strands of hair on Xiao Jiu's forehead, and also stirred his excited and uneasy mood, and finally said goodbye to the rotten and moldy smell of the underground cell, as if he had come back to life.

After the man opened the door, he turned around and carried himself again, at this time Xiao Jiu vaguely saw that this was a young man, dressed as a son, but it was a little familiar, but he didn't see it in a hurry, and then obviously passed through a small corner gate, out of the courtyard wall, as if entering a mountain road, and walked a bumpy distance, the man suddenly stopped, then Xiao Jiu heard a voice that he had been looking forward to for a long time, only to hear a woman shout softly: "Xiao Jiu!" Yes, that's the voice of my own thoughts, and I look forward to it a thousand times.

Then, in Xiao Jiu's moist eyes, the moving smile of a handsome woman under the starry sky was reflected.
