Chapter 66 Isn’t country more important than beauty? (23)
Listening to the people outside gradually walking away, Qiao Xi dared to cry out in pain softly. Looking at his two dislocated arms, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Just now, in order to prevent Qi Anze from being injured, he put himself underneath him in desperation, but he overestimated the endurance of this body.
"Are you okay?"
Because he was much taller than Qiao Xi, when he first fell, his head hit the stone directly.
This is also a part of the original text. This time, because of Qiao Xi's buffer, he didn't faint for so long.
After Qi Anze secured Qiao Xi's arm, he gently leaned her against the wall.
Looking at the things in the bag, he said happily, "Luckily you like to eat, otherwise we would starve to death here."
Josie could not reveal the plot and could only rationalize her behavior as much as possible.
In her plan, even if she was injured, it would not affect her ability to use Qing Gong to go out and rescue the soldiers. But who would have thought that it would be her arm that was injured.
Alas, it turns out that the key points of the plot cannot be bypassed.
"Don't worry, Yuchi will come out to look for us before we can return. We can go back in three days at most."
Qi Anze thought she was worried about being trapped, so he comforted her.
Qiao Xi: "..." No one will come until half a month.
Having been injured for a hundred days, she has no choice but to wait for rescue.
Seeing that Qiao Xi was distracted, Qi Anze deliberately diverted her attention and said, "We can't get out now anyway. Please tell me what happened between you and your grandmother."
The person squatting in front of her seemed not to be the ruthless Crown Prince, but the little prince who longed for family affection.
Qiao Xi suddenly had an epiphany, looked at him with burning eyes, and quickly made up a very heartwarming story in his mind.
"We originally bought it to perform acrobatics for Queen Xiankang. Later, she took pity on her and joined the Shadow Guards, so she had enough to eat."
After Qi Anze listened, he asked, "Besides Qinggong, do you not teach anything else?"
Qiao Xi was dumbfounded when asked, and said that he had not been taught. In the later period, his experience points would be enough to buy peerless martial arts. How could he explain it? What should he do now if he was taught?
"Okay, I know you are very tight-lipped," Qi Anze smiled and opened a chicken drumstick for her. Because it was wrapped well, not only did the fragrance not dissipate, but it was also very hot.
"Eat."
Qiao Xi looked at the chicken drumsticks in front of her. According to the steps in the storybook, she should let the host eat it first. However, the tossing just now was too tiring, so... she took one bite.
Looking at the little girl in front of him with her mouth full of oil, he also had a rare look of tenderness in his eyes.
Qiao Xi waited until the whole big chicken drumstick was finished, and then gave the man in front of him a look, "Host, you should eat some too, the night is still going on."
Qi Anze shook his head, "I'm not hungry."
He looked up at the stars in the sky and said with longing, "Look at the stars in the sky, how happy they are. There are so many stars accompanying him every night."
Qiao Xi looked at the stars in the sky and the chicken legs on the ground.
"Well, they are all important."
On the third day that the two of them stayed in the pit, Qiao Xi couldn't bear it any longer. Although they had been restraining themselves from getting in the water for the past two days, what was supposed to come came anyway.
At this moment, Qiao Xi regretted for the first time why she wanted to support Qi Anze.
In the original article, Qi Anze had no one to take care of him since he was a child, so when other princes had wives and concubines, no one thought of enlightening him. In addition, because of the influence of the brothel incident, he never had concubines.
Looking at the girl's suppressed red face, Qi Anze walked around for a few rounds, trying his best to pretend as if nothing had happened and dodge his eyes.
"Please pay your respects. When I get back, I will write to my mother to accept you as the Crown Princess."
…
Qiao Xi shook his head and gave a safer method, "Turn your back and close the six-way."
She was so anxious just now that she almost forgot that Qi Anze just lost his internal strength and could do other things.
Qi Anze nodded with some disappointment, turned his back as she said, and closed the Sixth Road.
Having solved this basic problem, the two men temporarily resolved the crisis.
…
After another quarter of an hour,
Looking at the vines on the wall, Qiao Xi suddenly thought of a question. According to the original article, the reason why the host could only wait for rescue was because his internal strength had not recovered.
There must be a stream near vegetation, and this hole is naturally formed.
Thinking of this, Josie immediately put her ears against the wall.
"...Master, do you hear the sound of water flowing?"
Qi Anze followed her example and put his ear against the wall, but he shook his head with a blank look on his face.
Josie closed her eyes and jumped into space to look at the topographic map of this place.
Looking at the current position 20 centimeters behind, there is actually a passage leading directly to the city.
She marked this position and handed the dagger to Qi Anze.
At that time, she didn't think carefully enough. Apart from the dagger in her arms, the only tool that could be used for digging was the sword in Qi Anze's hand. In comparison, the dagger was faster.
"Host, if you dig down at this location, we can get out."
Qi Anze hesitated and said, "Are you sure this is the location? Do you want to hear its location?"
He knew that the other party's Qing Gong was good and his hearing ability shouldn't be too bad, so he gave serious advice.
Qiao Xi subconsciously wanted to wave her hand, but her face wrinkled in pain, "It's right here."
Qi Anze: "..."
An hour later,
As night falls, the stars shine brightly,
Qi Anze, who was sweating profusely, finally dug out the entrance to the cave.
The two people looked at each other ecstatically.
After passing through the long cave, they finally saw the vast expanse of land.
Qiao Xi held her injured arms in front of her eyes and motioned to Qi Anze to get her some food.
Qi Anze looked at the unfamiliar environment around him and motioned to her to wait for a while before eating.
Based on his experience, they were either in no man's land, or they ran into the other party's camp, otherwise the surroundings would not be so quiet.
Because she exited the cave more than ten days in advance, she entered a period of stagnation again, and she didn't know where it was.
Squatting in the grass with Qi Anze, silently observing the surroundings.
Soon, they knew where this place was, because a person who shouldn't be here was sitting on Xilong's unique pride and being carried.
"Prince Rui?" Qiao Xi turned his head in disbelief and silently asked the people around him.
It was obvious that he had also seen it, his brows were slightly furrowed, his lips were pursed into a straight line, and he did not say a word.
At such a sensitive time, a prince appeared in the enemy's camp.
It's so incredible.
After they walked away, she asked quietly, "Is this your plan too?"
Qiao Xi wondered if it might be a ploy by the emperor to seize the opportunity to attack the east and attack the west.
But who is the real move that the emperor wants to make?
But if not, Prince Rui's behavior is treason.
