Chapter 147: unexpected meeting
Chapter 147 Unexpected meeting
After Ruan Youqing was taken out of the stone room by Gu Changan, she finally knew why Gu Changan took her to stay inside.
It is different from the previous two stone chambers which are airtight.
This time the stone chamber not only has the stone door wide open, but also has a short corridor connecting it after walking out. The short corridor is only two feet long, and on the ground at the end, there is a puddle of water that is about to dry up.
"This..." Ruan Youqing looked at Gu Changan suspiciously.
Gu Changan pulled her over and patiently explained:
"We were lying here when I woke up, and there was a small stream of water flowing over our heads. Obviously, we were swept here by an undercurrent. But... puzzling... I didn't see it in this short corridor. To anyone who can pass through an adult-sized entrance...like...we are...appearing out of thin air..."
Ruan Youqing immediately looked around subconsciously after Gu Changan finished speaking.
As a result, she really didn't find any opening that could pass through people...
This matter...is really strange.
The exit could not be found for the time being, Ruan Youqing could only withdraw his attention again, preparing to continue to study the contents of the letter.
Fortunately, the water stains have not yet dried out, so it is easy to get the paper wet.
After leaning over, Ruan Youqing dipped some water lightly with his fingers, and then wiped it on the letter paper.
After seeing the blurred handwriting gradually become clear, Ruan Youqing wiped some water on the paper until the handwriting on it was completely seen.
"Remember the young phoenix of the Ruan family, if you touch it, the mountains and rivers will be lost, and your blood will flow for hundreds of miles."
It was only a dozen or so words. After Ruan Youqing read it, the hand holding the letter was already shaking violently.
Young Feng of the Ruan family...
But... referring to her?
It's just that what is certain at this time is that Li Yi must not have had the chance to see the last line of writing, otherwise... when he deals with the Ruan family, he will definitely think twice about how powerful it is!
Mountains and rivers are lost, blood is flowing for hundreds of miles...
Ruan Youqing subconsciously raised her head to look at Gu Changan, seeing his serious expression, she felt so sad that she couldn't speak.
She still remembered the dream she had a few days ago, and the dream was after her death.
In order to avenge her, Gu Changan directly killed her in the palace...
In the end, Li Yi should have been pulled down from the throne by Gu Changan.
When Gu Changan saw the words that appeared, his heart was filled with turmoil.
He still remembers the dream he had before, his little fox was killed everywhere...
If Li Yi gets this before them...
And he didn't have the patience to see the last words...
It is very possible that he will regard the Ruan family as a thorn in his side.
Gu Changan's eyes gradually clouded, he would never let anyone attack the Ruan family.
Although the two have their own thoughts, their desire to protect or appreciate each other is getting stronger.
After Ruan Youqing put away the letter again, he said to Gu Changan very gently, "What shall we do next?"
Actually, in the past, when Ruan Youqing faced a crisis, he mostly resolved it by himself.
She is unwilling to hand over her life and death to others at will.
But now, she couldn't help but want to rely on Gu Changan. She is willing to let Gu Changan participate in her life.
Gu Changan heard her words, and after hearing her expression with a hint of joy, he took her back to the stone room and sat down, and then patiently analyzed the current situation of the two of them with her:
"When you and I were caught in the dark tide, Gangu and Fan'er came to save us. But they who were also caught in the dark tide were not with us... If we were brought to this stone room, they might fall I went to other stone chambers... so I think this may explain that the undercurrent can take people to different places... and I just took you to see the place where we appeared here, it seemed closed, and we seemed to appear out of thin air... this And does it explain, that short corridor...is there some kind of mechanism...undercurrents swept us here, the mechanism opened, and after we fell, the mechanism closed again."
Ruan Youqing listened, frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "Then... have you observed this stone room carefully?"
Gu Changan nodded, and pointed to the high platform where the clothes were just dried: "There are some patterns engraved on this high platform."
「Hmmm...you hang our clothes on it with patterns carved???」
Gu Changan answered her seriously after hearing this: "Because I groped along the pattern several times, and found that there was no response, so I hung the clothes on it. Don't worry, this pattern should not be a trap."
Ruan Youqing sighed softly, then supported with his hands, and jumped directly onto the high platform.
At this time, Ruan Youqing originally wanted to observe the pattern carefully, but in the end...
The high platform trembled suddenly after Ruan Youqing jumped up and stepped on the pattern, and then gradually sank to the ground!
Gu Changan: "???"
"Not coming up yet!" Ruan Youqing hurriedly passed his hand to the bewildered Gu Changan.
…
At this time, Li Yi was sitting slumped next to the sarcophagus that brought him up, his eyes were empty, and his face and body were covered with blood.
The guards who followed him were all dead.
There are only a few lines left beside him.
Yu Xing also seemed to be pale and his eyes were empty because of what he had experienced. And his right leg has become hollow under the knee.
Looking at the corpse in the distance, Li Yi felt a little complicated in his heart, and even more unwilling.
When the master and servant were paralyzed on the ground in an extremely decadent manner, they suddenly heard a click, and a square pillar beside them suddenly fell down.
Li Yi, who was originally lifeless, struggled subconsciously and hid behind the sarcophagus.
Yu Xing, who had limited mobility, could only stare blankly at the square pillar slowly falling.
Because of what happened just now, he has gradually become numb.
If something extremely terrifying suddenly jumped off the square pillar, he could only wait to die.
However, when the master and servant stared vigilantly and numbly at the top of the slowly sinking square pillar, their expressions suddenly became complicated and shocked at the same time.
On the square pillar...
There are actually two people!
And... these two people are familiar faces!
On this square pillar are Ruan Youqing and Gu Changan who stepped on the pattern.
It's just that they thought it was just a square platform just now.
As a result, the platform sank from the place where it was just now to a new place...
Afterwards, they saw Prince Li Yi.
Li Yi, who was extremely embarrassed, made Ruan Youqing feel a little bit of joy.
After the square pillar stopped, Gu Changan and Ruan Youqing jumped down from it one by one. Gu Changan called Li Yi without any expression on his face.
Li Yi was stunned for a moment, but after realizing the current situation, he gradually became a little embarrassed.
Although he was very surprised by the other party's appearance, Li Yi still suppressed his curiosity when he thought of what he had just experienced, and said solemnly:
"Master Shoufu, did you receive our distress signal?"
Gu Changan raised his eyebrows slightly, and replied to him with a little deep meaning: "That's not true, we... just pass by."
Originally, it was just a random beginning, but Gu Changan answered so casually, which made Li Yi a little angry.
but…
He still has to hold back.
Because whether he can go out depends entirely on the two people in front of him.
