Don't you think your wording is a bit unlucky?
"What should we do now? There is a wolf in front of us and a tiger behind us. We can't get in or get out. There must be an army of troops outside waiting to catch us both!"
Jiang Fu was so anxious that she paced back and forth on the ground.
Chen Jianan leaned back against the iron door, raised his head and pressed the back of his head against the door, tapping it lightly, thinking about what else to do.
"We are at a loss as to what to do, we are at the end of our rope, and we are trying to catch a turtle in a urn..."
Jiang Fu saw what he was mumbling, and when she got closer to listen, she almost rolled her eyes to the sky.
"Don't you think the way you phrased your thoughts is a bit unlucky!"
Chen Jian'an also wanted to say something auspicious, but in the current situation, it was obvious that no good words were applicable.
Najie's blood in a small porcelain bottle was only enough to turn the smallest pattern on the door half a turn. If he wanted to completely open the iron door, he had to be drained.
He thought that if it didn't work, he could only take Jiang Fu to find a way out first, and then make long-term plans.
"Wait, what sound do you hear..."
Chen Jian'an's expression became solemn. He stood up straight and looked towards the entrance of the cave where they came from. There was a "rustling" sound coming from there, as if something was coming this way.
When Jiang Fu listened, her scalp went numb.
"It looks like some insects are crawling on the ground. Could it be that there are some poisonous insects in this tunnel?"
She was not afraid of anything, but she was afraid of those little bugs that could penetrate everywhere. The soft caterpillars were okay, especially the hard-shell bugs with many legs. Her hair would explode just by looking at them.
Chen Jian'an took a step forward and protected Jiang Fu behind him. The next second they followed the cave and saw clearly what was coming this way. They were densely packed insects that looked like centipedes, crawling towards this direction in a dark mass.
Jiang Fu's pupils dilated instantly, she took two steps back, turned around and violently slapped the door behind her.
"Ahhhhhhhh~~~Help! Open the door quickly, someone is going to die!!"
The swarm of insects crawled very quickly, and in the blink of an eye they were at Chen Jian'an's feet.
Chen Jian'an took off his coat and swept it on the ground a few times, swiping aside all the insects under his feet.
"Be careful not to get bitten, this thing is poisonous!"
Jiang Fu jumped on her feet to avoid bugs crawling on her body, and slapped the iron door hard. This was their only way out now.
Then something magical happened in the next second. The palm of her hand that had been scratched burst open and bled, leaving several handprints on the door.
The blood from those handprints slowly seeped into the grooves of the door, and the vine patterns glowed with a bright yellow light, came to life again, and began to spread rapidly around.
The vines spread several times faster than the half-dead state before, and the circular totem began to rotate, making a loud "click" sound, and the entire iron door trembled.
Jiang Fu took two steps back in confusion. Unexpectedly, the door was actually opened by herself!
Could it be that this door belongs to candles? It won't light up unless it's lit.
She was so surprised that she forgot that there was a group of centipedes on the ground. Chen Jian'an waved his hand and swept away the centipedes in front of him again. When he turned to look at the door, his eyes passed by and he was shocked to find that those insects were surrounding Jiang Fu's body.
He walked with his feet down, as if he was deliberately avoiding her.
When the largest circular pattern on the iron door completed its rotation, the door slowly opened to both sides, and a moist breath mixed with the fragrance of flowers hit your face.
The group of black centipedes felt this aura, suddenly stopped moving, and then retreated towards the entrance of the cave like a tide.
After the door was fully opened, a huge secret room inside was exposed to the two of them.
Dozens of torches were lit on the walls of the secret room, illuminating the night like daylight. The huge room with no end in sight was filled with flowers, and butterflies and hummingbirds were flying among the flowers.
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Come in quickly!"
Jiang Fu was fed up with those bugs with feet, so she grabbed the dazed Chen Jian'an and rushed in.
As soon as the two of them crossed the threshold, the door slowly closed.
"You are from the royal family of Southern Xinjiang."
This is not a question.
Chen Jian'an grabbed Jiang Fu's wrist, looked at her bloody palm, and said with determination.
He looked at Jiang Fu with very complicated eyes. The powerful officials of Ming Xia adopted the bloodline of the Southern Xinjiang royal family and raised her as their biological daughter. This could not but lead Chen Jianan to conspiracy theories.
Yan Mingxili collaborated with foreign enemies and colluded with the Northern Barbarians, causing General Huo's family to be destroyed and his family to be destroyed, and the country of Ming Xia to be in danger.
At this time, if Jiang Guangyao colludes with southern Xinjiang to attack from both sides, Mingxia may have no way to save it and will have to be divided up by these two small countries.
The white mountains and black waters will be filled with hatred for eternity, and the country will be destroyed and the family will be destroyed for eternity.
If Jiang Fu is really the Emperor of Southern Xinjiang, then he should kill her now!
Chen Jian'an's eyes darkened when he looked at her, and his hand holding her wrist unconsciously used some strength.
Jiang Fu hissed and tried to pull her hand away in pain, but she didn't. She raised her hand and slapped Chen Jian'an across the face.
Who is this pretty boy with? He wants to beat his wife before they even get married?
Jiang Fu's slap seemed to wake him up from a demonic barrier. With the bloody palm mark on his face, he looked straight at Jiang Fu.
"I will only say this once. My father is Jiang Guangyao, and there is only Jiang Guangyao. I am not some Southern Xinjiang emperor.
It’s not the case now and it won’t be the case in the future!”
She stared into Chen Jian'an's eyes and said word by word.
Chen Jianan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
He realized that he didn't want to hurt her, and this thought frightened him.
It shouldn't be like this. I don't like this woman, and I want to ask to marry her just to take advantage of her!
I don’t like her, I can’t and shouldn’t like her!
"I trust you"
Chen Jian'an heard himself say this.
Because he knew in his heart that if he chose not to believe her, only one of the two people would be able to get out of the secret room today.
So he chose to believe her, even if this choice would put himself and his country in great danger later.
Hearing his words, Jiang Fu's face relaxed and she thought to herself: Her kindness to this pretty boy was not in vain, she was a man who repaid his kindness.
"This should be the holy land you are looking for, but there are flowers everywhere. Which one are you looking for?"
Jiang Fu looked at the sea of flowers around her and felt troubled, not knowing where to start.
Chen Jian'an shook his head after looking around.
"No, the Vanga flower blooms in three layers with eighteen petals. Each layer has a different color and is easy to identify.
Let's go inside and take a look. Since it is a sacred object, it will definitely not grow with ordinary species."
This secret room was surprisingly large, with several doors on the wall, and it looked like there were several other rooms.
Jiang Fu looked at those old wooden doors and rejected them in her heart.
If another insect army breaks out from any room, he can be reincarnated directly.
