Chapter 207: Gentlemen (VIII)



Xiang Qi's eyes seemed to be blazing with fire, "You are worse than an animal! I will kill you!"

"Xiang Qi, stop!" A woman's soft and delicate voice came from behind the rocks.

I only hear the voice but don't see the person.

When Xiang Qi heard the princess' voice, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. His hands holding the weapons dropped limply with a look of pain. There were only five of them left now, and they were no match for the troops of the Qinghe Wei family.

They failed to protect their master...

Cao Awang, standing by, was sweating profusely. "Sir, please explain quickly. I know you are not that kind of person."

"What kind of person am I?" Wei Li asked subconsciously, but suddenly paused.

Just now Xiang Qi seemed to call him "worse than beasts"?

He finally understood at this moment, and couldn't help but gasp, pointing at everyone and unable to speak for a long time.

Wei Li's chest heaved, his face grim. "What are you thinking?"

Everyone looked over, their eyes seemed to say, it was you who spoke unclearly.

A man and a woman were alone together for more than ten days. First he chased people away, and then he asked for clothes. Anyone would have some bad thoughts.

Wei Li held himself up, breathing rapidly as he explained, "We were trapped in a cave in mid-air and couldn't get down. We wove our outer clothes into a thick rope, tied it to the crooked tree, and slid down."

At a height of more than ten feet, one coat was definitely not enough. At first, he firmly disagreed to use the princess' coat. After all, the princess was a woman, and it would be inappropriate for her to be dressed in disarray. It would be disastrous if others saw it.

But the princess also disagreed with him taking off his inner garment. He had been in a coma for several days and was already weak. The two almost had an argument over this matter.

Of course, Wei Li compromised in the end.

The most important thing is to stay alive at the moment, and the first priority is to escape from the predicament.

It took a lot of effort for the two of them to climb down. Fortunately, the area below the cliff was remote and uninhabited. He gave the tree hole he found to the princess and decided to make a mark in a conspicuous place nearby to see if he could find the person.

Unexpectedly, I was so lucky that I ran into them as soon as I came out.

At this moment, the voice of Princess Zhongshan came from the tree hole behind her, "Every word that you said is true. Xiang Qi, I apologize to you, Li Lang."

The five followers froze when they heard this, and their faces turned embarrassed and red.

The atmosphere was so awkward.

Xiang Qi quickly clasped his fists and bowed his head to admit his mistake, "I'm sorry! We were so eager to protect our master that we wronged you. I hope you will forgive me."

Wei Li exhaled lightly and waved his hand, saying, "Nothing."

The two gangs reconciled in the blink of an eye and put away their weapons.

Cao Awang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How could Mr. Li be a lecher?"

But then he thought again, a man and a woman alone together, neither of them wearing outer clothes...

Cao Awang: “…………”

He's not a lecher, but he's not much different from this!

However, what woman can't the legitimate son of the Qinghe Wei family marry?

Speaking of which, the two seem to be a good match.

Cao Awang shook his head. He was just a squad leader and it was not his turn to worry about this matter. They had to go back quickly and report this to the girl.

However, it seems that the girl can't make the decision either? She must report to the three clan elders.

Cao Awang cast aside these chaotic thoughts and asked, "Mr. Li, what happened that night? Why were you trapped in mid-air?"

In his opinion, this was just a very common and ordinary problem.

When the young master and the young lady disappeared, everyone suspected at the beginning that they fell off the cliff, and they have been searching for them at the bottom of the cliff for several days.

I searched around the rocks several times, and today I just happened to come back and came across Langjun's place.

But how did the two masters survive at that altitude?

And what about the cave in the air that my husband mentioned?

Unexpectedly, when Wei Li heard this, his face suddenly changed and he looked very unnatural. He became extremely flustered and turned his back to them, refusing to say a word.

Buqu's question reminded him of the scene after he woke up in that small cave...

Cao Awang didn't notice his abnormality at all. Seeing that the man didn't say anything, he thought he didn't hear him. He wanted to continue asking, but when he saw that after the man turned around, there was a large and eye-catching dark red bloodstain on his right arm's shirt.

The bloodstains had completely dried, the color was extremely dark, and the stained areas had soaked through the middle of the shirt.

The guards behind him also saw it at this time and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Master Li! Are you injured?"

"Well, I got hurt when I fell." Wei Li replied casually.

He glanced down at the wound on his right arm. The wound was still covered with the herbal medicine that the princess had applied to him...

As he thought about it, the expression on his face became strange again.

The guards saw that his face was sometimes red and sometimes white, an abnormal red and an abnormal white.

The group of people were very frightened and quickly took out the water bags and dry food they found.

The guard hurried forward and said, "Master Li, please eat something while I take a look at your wound."

Wei Li took the food and waved his hand, saying, "I was injured more than ten days ago. I'm fine now, but I'm still a little weak. Let's wait and see." He had lost too much blood at the time and had no conditions to recuperate. He felt dizzy after standing for a long time.

But he still forced himself to stand up, his body slightly unsteady. He walked around the pile of rocks with the food, apparently wanting to give the food to the princess.

These days, the two men were trapped in the cave above, and had been eating the wild grass growing wildly in the cracks of the rocks to fill their stomachs. Every day they were trying to find a way to get down from above.

It took a lot of effort to get down, and I was already exhausted.

Xiang Qi and others stood by, at a loss, staring at his back with complicated eyes.

Although it seems that Mr. Wei did not do anything to the princess, a woman's reputation is of vital importance. In this situation, Mr. Li actually did not avoid suspicion!

Assuming that all their personal guards are dead?

If Wei Li knew what Xiang Qi was thinking, he would probably protest for his own innocence.

He simply hasn't come around yet.

The space in the cave was small, and no matter how careful the two of them were, some physical contact was inevitable. After staying together for a long time, his actions were now completely subconscious and he didn't realize there was anything wrong.

The people on both sides had different expressions and complicated eyes.

Cao Awang then remembered the important matter and waved to call the people in the distance over.

Several squad leaders gathered together and discussed in low voices. It looked like Mr. Li was in poor health, so they might have to rest here for a few days before leaving.

The guards were then divided into three teams, each led by three team leaders, who went out to look for clothes and food.

At present, the zombie tide on the mountain has been led away by them, and I don’t know whether they will return. Fortunately, the area under the cliff is remote and uninhabited, so it is safe for the time being.

But the other young men were separated in Gaoyi, and I don't know if He Langjun and the others have found them...
