Chapter 142 City of Hope (10)

"..."

Shen Qianli almost forgot that she was mainly looking for food. After climbing over the wall, she found a place to climb in again.

But she was unlucky this time and was hit by a patrol.

She is not stupid, of course she will run!

"Quick, catch him!"



"What happened?"

"Someone broke in!"

"Hurry up and ask someone to search, don't disturb the adults!"



In a panic, Shen Qianli hid in a cellar by accident and luck.

Some light shone through, which may be the place where the grain was stored before and then abandoned, because she found a bag of black rice here, grabbed a few grains, crushed the outer skin and still could eat it.

Shen Qianli can't go out anymore.

People outside are arresting her, so she needs to hide for a while!

She bundled the bag of rice firmly and tied it to her back, preparing to wait until dark before trying to escape. It was better for her to keep a low profile alone and not rely too much on Jingka's power.

Not long after Shen Qianli decided on the idea, the movement outside quickly disappeared. Shen Qianli listened carefully for a while and found that it was really gone. Shen Qianli stared at him and said: "No, brother, I am the intruder." Hey, the intruder may be a killer? Are the guards treating intruders with ulterior motives so childishly?"

Look down on me?

"No, it's really a bit strange."

Shen Qianli raised his hand and touched his chin.

The patrols she just encountered were all trying to scare her away, and it was clear that many guards had gathered to search for her. Why was there so much thunder and so little rain?

Won’t arrest me??

Then I run away?

Shen Qianli decided to take a gamble and climbed back along the way she came while holding on to the wall. She didn't move slowly. When she reached the end, she carefully pushed open the board at the entrance of the hole with her hands, revealing a crack and allowing the light from outside to shine through.

There was no one anywhere as far as her eyes could see, and there was no sound.

After thinking about it for a while, I became bolder.

She directly opened the board and climbed out. Phew, it's safe. It's safe.

"Who are you?"

A voice sounded above Shen Qianli's head.

Shen Qianli was caught off guard and cursed a hundred curse words in his heart! What a thief!

The voice was so close that she was startled for two seconds. She quickly turned around and met the man's gaze. Oh my god, isn't this the adult?

Lou Ming appeared here alone.

He looked at the sneaky man in front of him.

Shen Qianli's mind was racing. Everyone here was in awe of this adult. No wonder there was no sound outside. It turned out that this adult was here, but why was he here alone?

Shen Qianli silently hugged the rice he found. He couldn't be looking for old rice, right?

"Who are you?" Lou Ming saw Shen Qianli's golden hair, and there seemed to be some emotion in his eyes. His eyes scanned the clothes Shen Qianli was wearing and belonged to the servants downstairs. It was rare for him to say more. After a few words, "You are not from here, what are you doing here? Are you the one who came to save him?"

Shen Qianli: "???"

What did the NPC say???

Shen Qianli was originally a little wary of this adult, but in the few minutes since they met, he has not shown any malice towards her.

What plot did she trigger?

Who is that person? Who needs to be saved?

Shen Qianli felt that the man in front of him seemed to have given some respect to her hair. It was okay to use her hair to coax the group of children. After all, she was young and easy to fool, but had the man in front of her never seen anyone with blond hair?

Or is it that people here believe that blond hair is a symbol of the gods, so they are in awe and dare not harm them?

"I'm not the one who came for you."

Shen Qianli denied it outright. She shrugged and said, "Sir, I just came here to find some food to eat. Since you bumped into me, you should ask someone to arrest me."

Shen Qianli said it easily, and her expression looked broken, but if Lou Ming really called someone, she would definitely run away.

I don’t know if Lou Ming saw through Shen Qianli’s little trick, but he didn’t continue to ask who Shen Qianli was, as if he believed what Shen Qianli said.

Lou Ming ignored it and walked past Shen Qianli.

Only then did Shen Qianli see a door next to it.

Lou Ming directly opened the door and walked in. It was very dark inside, and then Lou Ming's figure completely walked into the darkness.

He didn't say whether he could leave...

Shen Qianli tightened the ration bag on his upper back and followed.



The winding stone staircase winds all the way to the top.

As Shen Qianli walked up the wall, the expression on his face became weirder. What kind of perverted torture chambers, torture and dismemberment, cannibalistic pets flashed through his mind...

It’s such a scary picture just thinking about it, ugh!

Shen Qianli paused. Otherwise, he might as well go down alone. He might not be able to defeat him in a real fight!

However, I finally panted and climbed the stairs to the room above. What I saw was an unexpectedly bright space with only a pool.

Shen Qianli: "..."

You're sick! Why didn't you light a lamp along the way? It scared me to death!

Lou Ming stood by the pool with his back to Shen Qianli. Shen Qianli didn't dare to approach him because he didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Then, yes, when Shen Qianli was squatting on the ground and drawing circles, it seemed like an hallucination in her eyes, and a man as good-looking as Lou Ming suddenly turned into a sword in front of her.

"?????"

Shen Qianli imagined many situations.

This is the only thing I haven't thought about before.

She held her head fiercely, her pupils were shaking, she doubted herself, and she was incoherent: "No, no, can a person turn into a sword? Aren't these two different things... Ah, no, how can a person be a thing, but a sword? It’s something, wipe it, what’s going on, I didn’t wake up?”

Sir...ah no, this sword needs to be soaked in a bath??

Shen Qianli's expression was wonderful.

Lou Ming…

The sword that was transformed into floating in the air was very gorgeous. The golden sword body was half a man's height. There was a sunken hole in the hilt. There should have been something embedded in it, but it was missing now.

Shen Qianli accepted the setting of this living person turning into a sword, and bravely stood up and walked towards the pool. However, the sword also moved, and Shen Qianli suddenly stopped, not even daring to blink. Dare to move.

Shen Qianli saw the golden sword flying towards the center of the pool, and then inserted into the black stone in the center. It was during this breath that the pool suddenly vibrated, and a passage suddenly opened from the center. All the water ran away along the cracked place.

This is really...

"Gu."

Shen Qianli didn't know it. She swallowed her saliva and her voice was a little loud, which just relieved the tension in her heart. She walked over, stretched her neck and looked at the entrance of the passage. Before she got close, she felt a smell emanating from it. There was an icy cold breath, so she boldly squatted on the entrance of the passage and squinted her eyes to look inside.

…It’s really too deep and you can’t see anything.

Where does this lead?

What secrets does this mercenary building hide?

Gu Lang, Master Lang, are he in here?

"hiss."

When Shen Qianli stood up, his legs went numb and he almost fell into the hole.

She stabilized her body and twitched the corner of her mouth. There were people outside waiting for her to bring food back, but she couldn't just dive in here. She was scheming! That sword was really scheming!

Use my curiosity so I can see this!!

Shen Qianli wanted to leave immediately. Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, the enlarged, sunken and ugly black hole on the sword hilt was right between her eyes. Shen Qianli was so frightened that her heart palpitated!

"wipe!"

The sole of her foot slipped, and by chance, the back of her head hit the stone slab at the edge of the cave entrance. Her eyesight went black, and she fell down the passage.
