Li Zhu fell to the ground while holding Mingfei, his last shred of consciousness fading away at that moment...
Mingfei slid from his arms to the ground, her hands instinctively trying to support herself as she sat up, but instead of touching solid ground, she felt something soft and wriggling...
She instinctively picked it up and glanced at it, only to discover it was a snake. This caused Mingfei to lose her composure, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted in Li Zhu's arms. Coincidentally, their bodies came into direct contact...
boom!
Another deafening explosion ripped through Li Zhu's mind, and he lost his last shred of reason...
A poem says: "The light boat has already passed ten thousand mountains..."
Another poem reads: "With a long spear across my body, flowers flutter down; the pine breeze chases the moon as I walk!"
Another poem says: "Only shallow grass can hide a horse's hooves!"
Another poem reads: "I once traversed the Heavenly Gate and knocked on the Imperial Gate, a lamp of the heart burning with sacred fire!"
After an unknown amount of time, the two nestled together. Li Zhu looked at the dark cave ceiling, tears streaming down his face. Having lived two lives, he was finally no longer a single loser...
Fortunately, Consort Ming couldn't see it, otherwise she would have thought that Li Zhu was the one being bullied!
"Your Highness, I am yours now..."
Consort Ming's voice broke the silence, pulling Li Zhu back to reality. After calming himself down, he said...
"Don't worry, I'll be good to you..."
"Um!"
Mingfei's voice was barely audible, but you could tell she was satisfied!
On the contrary, Li Zhu was quite unsettled, because everything that had just happened had been witnessed by a group of snakes, and what's worse, these snakes not only watched but also kept commenting...
What angered him most was that a snake actually said his penis was much shorter than theirs…
Li Zhu really wanted to cut that snake in two and add a couple more lines: "Your whole family is short..."
"Bamboo Leaf Green, go check if the people looking for me have left..."
Li Zhu spoke to the bamboo viper who was still watching. He had no choice but to say that he was quite familiar with the snake, after all, they had already interacted before. And as the saying goes, familiarity breeds contempt, this was their third meeting, so they were practically acquaintances...
Most importantly, he dared not give orders to the other snakes; if one bit him, he'd be dead...
"Everyone, come quick! This person can really understand us snakes..."
A rustling sound came, and soon he saw countless snakes staring at him as if he were a zookeeper watching monkeys…
Li Zhu never expected that after transmigrating, instead of being taken to be dissected and studied, he would be surrounded by a group of snakes...
"Bamboo Leaf Green, hurry up and go..."
Li Zhu said weakly, "I've already given up. I've seen everything I should and shouldn't have seen, and the entire process of human reproduction has already been shown..."
It could also be twice...
No matter how many times, the two of them became specimens for the snakes' research...
"Really..."
"I never expected that someone could actually understand us..."
"That's so strange, how did this person do that?"
A group of snakes surrounded them, discussing amongst themselves, their voices filled with doubt and amazement!
"Bamboo Leaf Green, if you don't go soon, I'm calling Little Dragon Girl down..."
Upon hearing the name Little Dragon Girl, Bamboo Leaf Green reluctantly left, clearly not having seen enough of a human who could communicate with snakes!
Soon, Zhu Yeqing returned and said to Li Zhu...
"Those people haven't left yet; they're still inside your palace..."
Upon receiving Zhu Yeqing's reply, Li Zhu frowned. He hadn't expected the Second Prince to be so patient; he had really gone to great lengths to solidify the relationship between him and Consort Ming…
He couldn't help but tighten his grip on Consort Ming's arm. Perhaps sensing Li Zhu's emotions, Consort Ming moved even closer to Li Zhu, and the two could even hear each other's heartbeats...
"Bamboo Leaf Green, are there any other exits from here?"
There's no way back through the passage under the bed; we'll have to find a way out from somewhere else...
"There is an exit, but you can't get through..."
Hearing Zhu Yeqing's words, Li Zhu's face darkened. This snake really deserved a beating. It was this snake that lied to him, this snake that cursed him, this snake that was a chatterbox, and this snake that summoned other snakes to watch him...
"I'm referring to a suitable passageway for me to exit..."
Li Zhu said irritably!
"No, but there's an underground palace if you go down the passage. We don't know if we can get out of there. We can't get close to that palace; it smells terrible everywhere..."
Hearing Zhu Yeqing's words, Li Zhu thought for a moment. Going back from the palace now would be too dangerous, since so many people were guarding it. It would be better to follow the passage and check out the underground palace that Zhu Yeqing mentioned. Anything built underground, if not a tomb, must be something valuable, maybe even some treasure...
If that were really the case, wouldn't we be rich?
Thinking of this, Li Zhu sat up. Consort Ming, thinking that Li Zhu was not satisfied, said somewhat shyly...
"Your Highness, I'm not feeling well. Could we discuss it again tomorrow night...?"
"Well…"
Li Zhu was taken aback for a moment, then realized what Consort Ming was saying, and he couldn't help but say with a dark face.
"What are you thinking? I want to go out..."
"oh…"
Mingfei's tone carried a hint of disappointment, and her pitiful appearance made Li Zhu's heart flutter for a moment. However, considering the large audience present, he hesitated for a moment and gave up the idea of becoming an animal...
"Consort Ming, please wear my clothes to avoid getting cold..."
Li Zhu put his shirt and coat on Mingfei, leaving himself only in trousers. Fortunately, the passage was pitch black; otherwise, if the two of them were seen like this, it would have been difficult to explain...
The passage was very long, and he could sense that it was leading downwards. He couldn't help but marvel at the wisdom of the ancients, who were able to excavate such a deep underground palace...
In Li Zhu's perception, he walked for about five or six hundred meters before arriving at a huge space. A massive rift appeared before him, making one marvel at the wonders of nature that could create such a magical underground rift...
A narrow suspension bridge, barely wide enough for one person, spans a bottomless ravine. Anyone with a fear of heights would likely lose the courage to step onto the bridge at first glance…
Li Zhu then threw a stone down, but there was absolutely no sound coming back...
This led Li Zhu to speculate about the depth of the rift. Either it was too deep for sound to travel back, or there was something below that prevented rocks from making much noise when they fell. Either way, it proved that the rift was indeed deep enough...
"Your Highness, I'm afraid..."
In such an environment, fear is a normal emotion, and he could only gently comfort Mingfei. Their feelings for each other quickly intensified in this atmosphere…
