The little bug was obviously unhappy.
Qu Li coaxed it and fed it a poisonous insect.
She was leaning against the wide-mouthed bottle, coaxing a little bug with a gentle voice. She looked so cute that it made Feng Yi laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Qu Li turned her head and glared at him coquettishly.
"Xiao Li'er is adorable."
Qu Li curled his lips and said, "You ate the bugs, which means you forgave me."
The little bug kicked its hind legs, indicating that it could only reluctantly forgive her.
Qu Li said a few more nice words before opening the wide-mouthed bottle, and little red bugs crawled out.
"Go in and see if there are any poisonous insects inside."
As long as the poisonous insect can be found, it will prove that Chang Sun Chi and others are in this cave.
And they are still alive!
The little bug kicked its hind legs to show that it understood.
She squatted down and watched it slowly crawl in through the gap, her heart slowly rising.
Feng Yi stood behind her, gently holding her shoulders with his big hands, silently comforting her.
After waiting for a long time, the little bug crawled out through the gap again.
Its belly was already round and bulging, many times bigger than before.
Qu Li's heart suddenly stopped beating, and then it was like a wound-up spring, ready to jump out of his chest at any time.
"My cousin and the others are really here!"
"But how do you explain the poisonous ants?"
Thinking of those black poisonous ants, Feng Yi's face became very solemn.
"Maybe it will be divided into areas like the underground palace."
"Are we going to find the mechanism now?" Feng Yi asked.
Qu Li nodded.
Both of them were proficient in mechanisms, and since a fire had previously burned everything around them bare, they were able to find the mechanism easily.
After the heavy sound of a spring, the large rock blocking the entrance of the cave slowly moved away, and the terrifying poisonous ants did not appear.
They exchanged glances, exhaled slowly at the same time, and walked in.
The cave was cool and damp. Feng Yi wanted to take off his coat and put it on her, but was stopped by Qu Li.
"It's okay, I'm not cold."
They walked inside, shouting "Cousin".
When Chang Sun Chi and others who were imprisoned in the underground cave heard Qu Li's shout, they all perked up.
"My cousin is here!"
"Cousin really came to save us!"
"Cousin!"
"Did you hear someone calling me?" Above, Qu Li frowned and listened carefully.
"I heard it too!" Feng Yi was also very happy and held her hand which was already covered with sweat.
"Brother, don't worry too much. I will find a way to rescue you as soon as possible!"
Qu Li tried her best to make her voice sound calm, fearing that they would hear that she was lacking confidence.
Although they have found Chang Sun Chi and others now, they are still unable to rescue them.
Feng Yi guessed what she was thinking and silently held her hand again.
She raised her eyes, and their eyes met, and her eyes felt a little sore.
Feng Yi raised his other hand, took her into his arms, and hugged her tightly.
The refreshing scent from him surrounded her. With her ear pressed against his strong chest, she could clearly hear his steady and powerful heartbeat.
The worried heart gradually calmed down.
She hugged his waist tightly, allowing herself to greedily sniff his unique scent.
Taking a deep breath, she looked up into his inky eyes.
"Ayi."
"Um."
"Thank you! I'm fine now!"
He kissed her forehead and said gently, "Then let's start looking for someone now."
Qu Li nodded vigorously.
Chang Sun Chi and others who were underground could not hide their excitement after hearing Qu Li's voice. After waiting for a long time and hearing no more sound, they couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Could something have happened?" Chang Sun Chi asked Chang Sun Wu, who still looked calm.
"Nothing should happen."
My cousin is a smart person, and with Feng Yi, nothing will happen to her.
"Then why is there no sound?"
"Maybe they are looking for an agency."
All of them were collectively knocked unconscious at the time and had no idea how they got here.
When I woke up, I was shocked to find that I was locked up.
Today is the wedding day of the high priest and Qu Li. They believe that it will definitely not be peaceful. The high priest may have trapped them here for fear of any mistakes, and use them to threaten Qu Li and force her to submit.
The fact that Qu Li was able to find this place means that the wedding did not go smoothly, and it is very likely that something happened to the high priest.
"Third brother, how about we talk to our cousin again?" Chang Sun Chi was a warrior with a rough personality. He always felt uneasy because he couldn't hear Qu Li's voice.
"Okay, if you want to shout a few times, then shout a few times." Chang Sun Wu leaned against the stone wall leisurely.
Chang Sun Chi couldn't understand why Chang Sun Wu could remain calm at such a time. He curled his lips impatiently, "Then I'll yell!"
Changsun Lingzuo echoed: "I'll shout a few times too."
The voices of the uncle and nephew rang out one after another, passing through the thick stone wall and reaching Qu Li's ears.
Qu Li responded: "Cousin, are you all okay?"
The little bug has helped them get rid of the poisonous insects in their bodies, so she is no longer worried about their safety.
As long as we find the mechanism as soon as possible, we can rescue them.
"We're fine, cousin, don't worry, we're all fine."
Changsun Lingzuo also quickly added: "Aunt, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. The high priest is dead. The emperor is currently dealing with the next matters. Don't worry. We should be able to find the mechanism soon." Qu Li calmed them down.
Chang Sun Wu said calmly, "The air circulation is very slow down here. You should all sit down and try not to move too much or talk too loudly, or you might suffocate to death."
Chang Sun Chi kicked him hard, "You damn bad mouth!"
Changsun Lingyou said, "Uncle, it is indeed like this. You should just keep quiet!"
After waiting for a long time, I still couldn't find the mechanism.
Chang Sun Chi was already feeling dizzy. He asked in a low voice, "Do you feel dizzy?"
"A little bit." Changsun Lingzuo replied.
"Cousin," Chang Sun Wu, who had been silent the entire time, said, "There's no air down here. It's completely sealed. We probably won't be able to hold out for much longer."
Qu Li, who was already very annoyed because he couldn't find the mechanism, looked even gloomier after hearing this.
Feng Yi held her hand and said, "Don't worry too much."
They searched almost inch by inch, fearing that the mechanism was not somewhere that could be easily found on the surface.
"People like the high priest should be left exposed!"
Worried that they would pass out from lack of oxygen, Qu Li would call them every once in a while.
After getting a response, continue to seize the time to find the mechanism.
"Still haven't found it."
Her voice was choked with anxiety, and her whole body exuded a sense of dejection.
Feng Yi's eyes were still gentle: "Don't worry, we will definitely find the mechanism! Perhaps we are looking in the wrong direction."
