Chapter 507: Fight in the Cave
Fubao entered the woods again, this time being held by A Lei. She was no longer as flustered as she was last night.
She lay on Are's shoulder, looked at the situation in the forest, and pointed in a direction with her little hand.
"Uncle, go over there."
Arei looked at the direction Fubao pointed, which was halfway up the mountain. Snowflakes were still floating in the sky. Arei couldn't tell the direction, but he went wherever the princess told him to go.
However, when Arei heard Fubao addressing him, he immediately corrected her: "Princess, I am Arei, you can just call me by my name. I don't dare to be your uncle."
Arei thought to himself, the princess' uncle is a prince. Unless he wants to move his head, he dares to be the princess' uncle.
Fubao looked at A Lei strangely.
"You are really uncle, right? Mother taught me to be a polite child. If I call uncle by his name, it means I don't know the difference between respect and inferiority, and I will be criticized by others. I don't want to embarrass mother."
Are was speechless because Fubao spoke so seriously and he was afraid that he would teach other people's children bad things.
When Fubao saw that A Lei did not refute, she showed a smug smile. She was unwilling to admit her identity as a princess.
Wan Laoer knew A Lei's name, so he found it much easier to call him.
"Alei, can you beat Xiao Qianchou now? What if Xiao Qianchou catches up with you later..."
"If you catch up, I'll throw you out as a scapegoat."
Before Wan Laoer could finish his words, Are's voice came coldly from above his head.
Wan Laoer was so frightened that his neck shrank and he dared not speak anymore.
But soon they arrived halfway up the mountain, and saw a large cave there.
Arei put Fubao and Wan Laoer down.
"Uncle, shall we go in?"
In a hurry, A Lei grabbed Fubao who was walking inside.
"Princess, no!"
Arei has a psychological trauma about the cave. After all, there was a big tiger hiding in the cave on the top of the mountain on the other side of the county town last night. Who knows what is in the cave?
Fubao said firmly: "Uncle, it's okay, let's go in, it's so cold outside."
Although Fubao was held by A Lei all the way, his little face was still red from the cold.
Seeing that the princess was so confident, Arei no longer insisted and followed Fubao into the cave.
Wan Laoer was afraid that there was something in the cave, so he picked up Fubao.
The cave was pitch black, and the visibility became worse the further you went inside. However, this cave seemed like a bottomless pit, and you still didn't reach the end even after walking for a quarter of an hour.
And the further you go inside, the more forks in the road appear.
Arei immediately understood the princess's intention.
"Princess, are all these caves connected?"
Fubao didn't know either. It was her first time here, but she had a strong intuition that this place could help them escape Xiao Qianchou's pursuit.
"I don't know either, but it seems so now."
Arei became even more convinced of Fubao's abilities. Fortunately, he listened to the imperial teacher and did not force the princess to go back. Otherwise, he might have been killed by the princess's good fortune on the way.
Several people wandered around in the cave for half an hour but couldn't find the exit. It was like a large maze and they seemed to be lost.
At the same time, they were not the only ones who were lost. Xiao Qianchou also followed them here and saw the cave and the messy footprints at the entrance of the cave. He followed them in, but the cave was dry and the visibility was poor. It was difficult to find the traces of Fubao and others after they entered the fork in the cave.
Xiao Qianchou took the wrong path and got further and further away from Fubao and the others.
Several people have been wandering in the cave for two days without getting out. The three of them are extremely hungry, but there is nothing in the cave.
If they can't get out, they will starve to death here.
At this time, Fubao was lying listlessly on Wan Laoer's shoulder.
"Daddy, Fubao is so hungry!"
Wan Laoer's eyes were also green with hunger, but there was nothing he could do. They were in such a hurry to go out that they didn't take any food with them. Now they wanted to go out but were trapped inside again.
"No, we must get out of this cave today. If we don't get out, the princess' life will be in danger."
Arei rested for a while, stood up with the help of the wall, and said to Wan Laoer.
Wan Laoer said weakly: "I want to go out, but my legs are weak and I can't move them anymore."
Arei took Fubao and held him up.
"I'll hold the princess. I believe that with the princess here, we will definitely not die."
Arei firmly believed that Fubao was the Princess of Fortune and would not die, and neither would they.
Wan Laoer also stood up with the help of the stone wall, and followed A Lei step by step in another direction.
But when they reached the fork in the road, they saw a figure flash by.
The time passed in the cave without distinction between day and night, and they didn't know what time it was. Only Ale could see clearly at night and see more clearly than Wan Laoer.
Wan Laoer could only follow A Lei, as if he was a blind man. Just now, a figure flashed by, and Wan Laoer didn’t see it at all, but A Lei saw it.
He stopped immediately, and Wan Lao Er bumped into Arei's back.
"Suck—why did you stop?"
Wan Lao Er gently rubbed his forehead. He didn't know how A Lei looked like. The flesh on his body was like a piece of iron.
Arei stood there motionless, and immediately ordered Wan Laoer to keep quiet.
Wan Lao Er realized something was wrong, and at the same time he felt uneasy. Could it be...
Wan Laoer didn't ask. He couldn't see anything, but he felt even more panicked.
Immediately afterwards, Are turned around and handed Fubao to Wan Laoer.
"Protect the princess well. Even if you die, the princess must remain unharmed."
A Lei said softly, and Wan Laoer immediately understood that Xiao Qianchou was here.
Fubao blinked her big eyes, but like her father, she could not see anything. Now only A Lei could fight among the three of them, and the two of them were just drags.
Wan Laoer quickly held Fubao in his arms and stepped back a few steps, pressing his back tightly against the stone wall.
As soon as he stood up, he felt a gust of wind blowing towards him.
It turned out that Arei was fighting with someone, and the two of them were fighting back and forth in front of him, affecting the air around them.
Wan Laoer was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe, and Fubao hugged Wan Laoer's neck tightly.
But it's like others can see them but they can't see others.
Wan Laoer had no idea which direction to go, and he didn't dare to walk around randomly. If he and A Lei took the wrong path, they would really be stuck.
But Fubao suddenly said to Wan Laoer: "Daddy, run quickly, to the right."
Wan Laoer didn't care about anything else and ran away.
He suddenly felt wind blowing from the right, and he immediately ran in the direction of the wind.
But because he couldn't see, he didn't have time to turn and crashed into the stone wall with a thud. The back of Wan Laoer's hand was also scratched by the stone wall and began to bleed.
Blood dripped onto the ground, and soon Wan Laoer heard something rustling towards them.
