Chapter 307 The truth of adversity

"Morning clouds and Mu Yu." Bai Xueyin's eyes were distant and empty, looking at the darkness in the distance and said slowly, "Mu Yu Yu and the green mountains are used as solitary graves. Who can share the bones at the foot of the mountain? Millions of gold will accompany them for a long time. Burying together for thousands of years is a good man."

After saying the last two words of "beloved", a trace of blush appeared on her face, and she turned away without even looking to see if Lan Qiao was awake.

After a long time, Lan Qiao coughed slightly and said, "What kind of lover?"

Bai Xueyin turned around in shock, and saw Lan Qiao looking at her with wide eyes, and hurriedly covered it up by saying, "It's nothing, you heard wrong."

"Sorry, it took me so long to wake up." Lan Qiao was embarrassed and wanted to sit up, but he fell back onto Bai Xueyin's lap due to weakness when he was halfway up. "It must have hurt you."

When Bai Xueyin saw that Lan Qiao had not heard her express her feelings, she felt relieved but also a little disappointed. If he heard what I said, would he treat me...

She shook her head with some self-reproach, waved away these unrealistic thoughts, smiled slightly and said, "No way, if senior brother hadn't broken the stone door with force, we would have died in the tomb passage."

Lan Qiao finally gathered enough strength this time, turned over and sat up, leaned against the stone wall next to Bai Xueyin and said, "Where are we now?"

Bai Xueyin then briefly talked about his escape process after he fainted, and finally said, "Now I no longer have the strength to try other paths. If senior brother can still move, he might as well go on his own."

"I can't even stand up now, and I can't even walk. What's more, you risked your life to save me, how can I leave you?" Lan Qiao smiled bitterly, "I'm ashamed to say it, I can't even remember it.

This is the first time that I have been saved by you."

Bai Xueyin said with some melancholy and helplessness, "It's a pity that this time, I have led you into a dead end."

"Don't be discouraged yet." Lan Qiao waved his fist. He wanted to pat her thigh, but suddenly he felt it was inappropriate, so he patted her shoulder in an extremely twisted posture and said encouragingly, "I will live my whole life."

, I can’t count the number of times I’ve been forced into a dead end with both hands. I’ve survived all the crises ahead of me, and I believe we can do the same this time.”

Bai Xueyin looked at his interesting changes in movements and couldn't help laughing, "What do you want to do? You're almost screwed up."

Lan Qiao scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Didn't I suddenly realize that you are a girl?"

"What did you say?" Bai Xueyin pretended to be angry, "Did you think of me as your little brother before?"

"It doesn't matter whether it's a little brother or a little girl." Lan Qiao sighed softly, "Anyway, it will turn into a pile of bones. It doesn't make any difference."

"Everyone will die. It's just a matter of a few years earlier and a few years later." Bai Xueyin said softly, "I am satisfied that I can be with senior brother. Does senior brother have any unfulfilled wishes?"

Lan Qiao shook his head feebly and did not answer her.

He took out "The Skills of Machinery and Fire" and flipped through it. Bai Xueyin also looked closer, pointing to the exquisite designs with pictures and texts on the pages and exclaiming, "These are all designs of firearms and machines, and there are also various illustrations."

kind of explanation.”

"Lan Feng has liked playing with these things since he was a child." Lan Qiao said with emotion, "He resisted practicing martial arts and spent all day thinking about blacksmith and carpenter work. My father tried to persuade him several times to no avail, so I had to let him go. Don't

Seeing how he always looks pretentious and romantic, sometimes I really worry that he won't be able to get a wife."

"Are you afraid that no girl will like you, the dignified second son of Uncle Dingyuan?" Bai Xueyin said with a smile, "Don't worry."

"They all say that an elder brother is like a father." Lan Qiao lamented at this point, "If we unfortunately die here, this book "The Art of Machinery and Fire" will be the last gift I leave to him. He has it in his hand.

The map to the treasure will be found sooner or later, so I won’t have any regrets.”

Bai Xueyin fell silent after hearing his sad tone. After a long time, she saw Lan Qiao closing his eyes slightly, as if he was about to fall into sleep again, so she quickly broke the silence and said, "Brother, you can't sleep. If you sleep, you may never wake up again."

But come on. Come and chat with me. I heard that Senior Brother and Sister Feng were also trapped in the mountainside, but I don’t know what they did and talked about at that time."

Lan Qiao opened his eyes with a start, and said with some fear, "Yes, let's supervise each other, and no one can sleep."

He remembered that Feng Yeling was still in jail, and felt sad again, but he didn't want to pass on this sad emotion to Bai Xueyin. He rolled his eyes and smiled and said, "I told her at that time that if she could watch the eldest lady dance before she died,

After the last song, there will be no regrets in dying."

Bai Xueyin was actually exhausted both physically and mentally. At this time, she steeled herself and asked with curiosity and excitement, "What then? Did Sister Feng really dance for you? You didn't know she was your fiancée at that time, right?"

"

"I don't know, she didn't want me to die with my eyes open, so of course she jumped for me to watch." Lan Qiao said with emotion, "I was still thinking at the time, if we were not trapped to death, whoever married her in the future would have to faint from excitement."

"So? Did senior brother faint?" Bai Xueyin said with a sly smile, "It's a pity that I can't dance, otherwise I might make senior brother faint again."

Lan Qiao was just talking nonsense. He was afraid that if he said too much, Bai Xueyin would catch him and get to the bottom of it. He glanced at her and said, "Junior sister doesn't know how to dance. How about singing a song for me?"

Bai Xueyin's face suddenly turned red, and she hesitated to refuse. Seeing the expectant look in Lan Qiao's eyes, she couldn't bear to ruin his mood at this moment. After hesitating for a long time, she said uneasily, "I only remember a song from before.

My father often sings a military tune. If you sing it wrongly, please don’t laugh at me..."

Lan Qiao smiled and said, "Sing and see."

Bai Xueyin cleared her throat, tried to straighten her upper body, and sang, "The sword is sharp, the armor is strong, and a hundred thousand troops are marching to northern Xinjiang. Back then, you occupied my land and robbed my home. Today I come to your grassland to see how dare you be so rampant? The decisive victory lies in

On the battlefield, the soldiers are full of food and supplies, and the drums are beating loudly. Who can compete with me? If you want to survive, why don't you surrender with your tail between your legs?"

This was a military song popular among the army when Lan Ruohai accompanied General Lan Yu on his northern expedition to the Fishing Sea. Bai Xueyin sang it with her already hoarse voice, which had a unique charm.

Lan Qiao clapped her hands to make the beat, and Bai Xueyin was encouraged, and then sang the last part of the military song: "Brothers, join hands with me, kill all the enemies, wait until the day when the general is granted the title of Marquis, and take care of the beauty of the family."

mother."

"It's too late to become a general and a marquis, but the beautiful lady is ready." Lan Qiao glanced at Bai Xueyin, and then said, "This beautiful lady is good at everything, but she has a bad temper."

Bai Xueyin glared and said, "Why am I so bad-tempered?"

Lan Qiao laughed heartily, and then sang in a sinister tone to Bai Xueyin's tune just now, "The sword of the chivalrous girl is fragrant, and the blood stains her skirt. Gu Pan smiled lightly, and poured out the beef bone soup..."

"You..." Bai Xueyin was mixed with embarrassment and anger, and her unwilling little pink fists fell like raindrops on Lan Qiao's strong chest.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch." Lan Qiao cried out in pain, "Just say you have a bad temper. If you don't agree with me, you will strike. Let's see which man dares to want you in the future."

"No one wants me, so I rely on you." Bai Xueyin said evilly, "Didn't you say that you want me to go into seclusion with you? When I saw your Miss Feng, Miss Li, and other flower girls, eat them

Not jealous."

Lan Qiao thought that he couldn't get out anyway, so he simply said casually, "Miss Feng is the most generous. Even Ehuang Nvying can say such things, which shows that she is not a jealous person. Miss Li, you should be careful, she

On the surface, he is polite to everyone, but in fact, he will fall out quickly, faster than turning the pages of a book."

Bai Xueyin asked, "When the two of us fight, will you help her or me?"

"Of course..." Lan Qiao suddenly paused when he said this, and looked at Bai Xueyin's fist with some fear, "Miss Li, you are like a little white rabbit. The two of us together may not be able to beat you. You

Who should I help?"

"Bah, I know you can't spit out ivory from your dog's mouth." Bai Xueyin said and punched again. Lan Qiao hurriedly ducked to the side. Her punch landed heavily on the stone wall behind Lan Qiao. On the stone wall

Make a small hole.

"Oh my god, you are really capable of doing this." Lan Qiao exclaimed, "I'm just joking, I can't get out anyway..."

He suddenly stopped when he said this, almost jumped up and said, "Look what this is!"

Bai Xueyin was startled by him and quickly moved closer to look at the small hole in the stone wall, but she didn't see the reason.

Lan Qiao put the Night Pearl back into his sleeves, but saw a ray of light coming in from the absolutely dark underground space.

"This is..." Bai Xueyin looked at those cracks with a faint light in disbelief, and punched again.

There was a crisp sound, and the cracks burst open, revealing a hole the size of a palm.
