Xiao Rong cuddled up to her, with a serious face, and shook her head: "I don't know."
"How about we go back? In this situation, they may not necessarily deal with us." Xiao Wu said.
Xiao Rong didn't say anything, still didn't know.
They had successfully gone down from the other side of the vegetable garden, but as far as the eye could see below the mountain, there was rushing water. They had to walk back, planning to hide on the mountain for a few days.
Now that the sky is getting darker and darker, they are cold and hungry. Do they really have to go back?
Xiao Rong gritted his teeth, no, I can't go back.
The water in the east kept rushing vegetation, flowers and leaves, and something suddenly dazzled Xiao Wu's eyes.
"Sister!" Xiao Wu La pulled Xiao Rong, "Look over there."
Xiao Rong looked at it and was stunned.
Several dark red pearls and jade were stuck in the soil. The water swayed the soil, and the pearls and jade also swayed.
Xiao Wu let go of Xiao Rong and stood up to go over. Xiao Rong held her back and said, "Sister, what are you doing?"
"We need money when we go out," Xiao Wu said, "These things are valuable at first glance."
As soon as he finished speaking, a string of round and crystal-clear pearls rushed out.
"Sister!" Xiao Wu was delighted, "Look."
Xiao Rong was also dumbfounded. She was trembling a little and was indescribably excited.
If these pearls and jade are taken out and sold at a good price, will they become the daughters of rich families?
Thinking of the delicate ladies she had seen before, Xiaorong's heart beat uncontrollably and she ran forward.
"It's from over there," Xiaowu pointed, "Sister, we have to go up further, but Mama Yu is over there."
"Wait until they leave," Xiao Rong lowered her voice, "As soon as they leave, we will go take a look and bring more."
"Yeah!" Xiao Wu smiled happily.
After laughing, she shrank and leaned closer to Xiao Rong: "Sister, I'm freezing to death."
Xiaorong put his arms around her: "Don't be afraid, sister is here."
The corridor is long and humid, and due to the continuous heavy rain, the sound of water flowing in the cave has become turbulent.
Unlike last time when he was in the dark, this time Xia Zhaoyi held up a torch and lit it on the surrounding cave walls.
This mine tunnel is not connected to the secret tunnel that collapsed last night. There is nothing special about it. It looks older here and the air smells smellier.
However, it is a bit unexpected that such a dilapidated mine tunnel is connected to the dungeon.
Xia Zhaoyi followed the path he had taken before and came to the place where he eavesdropped on Su Juren's conversation that day.
Shining a torch on the wall, she tapped lightly and felt a loose piece.
With a little effort, I can't move it.
Xia Zhaoyi was helpless, after all, this body was just that of a little girl.
She climbed on the stone and used her right foot to press it against the opposite cave wall, trying to move the stone door away.
The folded leaves in Zhao Ning's hand paused slightly, and the pinna of his ears moved slightly.
The thin and broken sounds became more and more obvious.
Her face was still expressionless, but her eyes wavered slightly as she looked at the leaves in her hands.
The wind and rain were loud, and the two soldiers sat outside under the eaves and watched the heavy rain.
One complained that he was hungry and had no energy.
One complained that the nearest brothel here was at least thirty miles away.
The two of them chatted without saying a word, with their legs crossed on another bench to prevent their shoes from getting wet due to the water that reached their wrists.
The stone door moved for a long time and was finally slowly opened.
Because of his small body, a gap was enough for Xia Zhaoyi to get in from the outside.
Another stone gate.
The torch illuminated it, and I saw that the tunnel was narrower and the cave wall was much newer than the one outside, but it was at least ten years old.
This stone door was much easier to open. Xia Zhaoyi reached out and pressed it on the door, gently pushing it to the side.
An even worse damp smell suddenly hit my face.
There was also only a small gap opened, and Xia Zhaoyi looked at the cage opposite and the woman sitting in the cage.
Very long hair, greasy and haggard, hanging straight down on the ground, and spread a thin layer on the ground.
There was a small bed inside the cage. The pillows on the bed were pressed extremely flat, and old quilts were piled there in disorder.
There are many leaves scattered on the ground, which are very thick, yellow and curled, and no one cares about them.
There is a broken bowl in the south-facing corner of the cage. The moldy steamed buns in the broken bowl are being shared by two rats.
After waiting for a while, there seemed to be no movement behind me.
Zhao Ning frowned slightly, put down the leaves in his hand and looked back.
He looked back very elegantly, slowly but not weakly, with his back straight and his shoulders upright, but it was a pity for his face.
Xia Zhaoyi looked at her face quietly, thinking about what she would have looked like before she was injured.
Zhao Ning, who originally thought it was Su Juren, was slightly frightened by the sudden appearance of the little girl, and then began to look at him.
The air was silent and it was raining heavily outside, but they seemed to be able to hear their own breathing clearly.
"You," Zhao Ning said softly, "did you bump into me by accident?"
Such a calm little girl was not frightened by her ghostly appearance.
Xia Zhaoyi shook his head: "No, I just came to find you."
Zhao Ning paused slightly: "Who asked you to come?"
"I'm here to take you away," Xia Zhaoyi jumped down from the corridor and walked over and said, "Is this door locked?"
Zhao Ning still maintained his sitting position, glanced at the cage outside, and then whispered: "If you come here again, I might see you over there."
But the girl didn't seem to hear her. She stretched out her hand to hold the chain outside the iron fence and looked at it.
It's rusted like this.
Xia Zhaoyi took out a small, sharp wooden hairpin from her head and moved it gently over the keyhole.
With a very light click, the chain was easily opened.
She pulled out the entire chain, trying not to make any noise, then opened the cell door and whispered, "Let's go."
Zhao Ning stared blankly at the opened cell door, and then looked at Liu Sanniang outside.
In fact, it is very difficult for people to see this angle, not to mention that Liu Sanniang is leaning over there with her back now, looking at the heavy rain outside, muttering something incomprehensible.
Zhao Ning pursed her lips, stood up and walked over.
When she stepped out of the iron gate, she lowered her head and glanced at the mouse next to her. She felt a little sad in her heart. After thinking about it carefully, she felt like she had no thoughts at all.
But, did you leave so easily?
After she came out, Xia Zhaoyi locked the chain back in its original shape.
There was only a narrow gap in the stone door. Xia Zhaoyi climbed up and got out easily.
Zhao Ning pushed the stone door further open, his skinny body feeling equally relaxed.
She turned around and wanted to block the stone door, but Xia Zhaoyi called her out: "Goodbye."
"Not closing?" Zhao Ning said.
"It doesn't fit."
Xia Zhaoyi said as he drilled out the second stone door.
The torch was still placed in the corner, and the wind in the cave blew the torch swaying.
Xia Zhaoyi looked back at her pushing the stone door hard, took out a small cloth bag from her arms, and handed it over.
Zhao Ning paused and reached out to take it. After uncovering it, it was a roasted, crispy and golden rabbit leg with a large leaf wrapped around it. The fragrance of the leaf was also brought out, creating a pleasant aroma.
Tasty to the nose.
She raised her head and said in surprise: "This is..."
"This stone door is not easy to push. You must have some strength to push it out after eating." Xia Zhaoyi said.
Then she stood outside holding a torch, showing no intention of coming to help.
