Li Ping'er didn't know how long she had slept underground. She was woken up by hunger.
Li Ping'er touched her belly that had flattened, with a melancholy look on her face.
"When will the officials come? My family is starving to death."
Before speaking, Li Ping'er suddenly felt the ground beneath her feet shaking slightly.
She thought it was an illusion at first, but soon there was a "boom!" and the top of the entire secret room shook violently.
Li Ping'er quickly stood up: "Someone is coming!"
Although Li Ping'er's belly is empty now, she still looks forward to seeing her man.
But after all, she was not a brainless person. When she didn't know whether the person coming was a person or a ghost, she couldn't appear hastily, so she walked out secretly.
After leaving the Guizang Formation, Li Ping'er heard the sounds coming from outside getting more intense, and it sounded like someone was fighting.
Li Ping'er walked secretly along the wall with her feet in the direction of the sound.
Not long after, the shouting voices of several men came from the front.
"What's going on? Why are the institutions in this place so powerful!"
"Liu Daxia, are you okay?"
"It's okay! Everyone, please be careful. The more powerful the mechanism is in Xiaoyao Tomb, the more precious the treasures are. Let's keep moving forward!"
Li Ping'er was lying in the corner. She looked forward with her head in the air, and saw several men groping over.
Since she didn't hear her man's voice, Li Ping'er tiptoed back again.
He retreated to a location with five forks in the road. Among these five forks, Li Ping'er only recognized the corridor he was currently on.
She huddled in a corner of the corridor. This location was relatively dark. Even if someone came over, they might not be able to spot her presence if they didn't look down.
Several people stood at the fork in the road, looking at each other.
"Which way do we go next?"
Although these people seem to have a good relationship and are united on the surface, in fact, everyone has their own selfish motives.
On the surface, he is kind and calm, but he is tacit in his heart.
In fact, privately, I was already thinking about how to leave others behind and hunt for treasures alone.
Fortunately, there were a few side roads, so someone started talking.
"How about this, let's separate and each take a different path."
"If you find a treasure ahead, just speak up and warn it."
Just when they were about to separate, there was a sudden loud noise from the rightmost fork, and then the entire corridor began to tremble violently.
There were even quite a few rocks falling from the top!
"What's going on!?"
"Someone touched the mechanism!"
"It seems that the person who killed Hero Wei went in this direction."
Since someone was scouting the road ahead, several people immediately rushed up along the rightmost corridor.
After they all walked away, Li Ping'er quietly appeared.
She peered towards the dark corridor in front of her.
And just when Li Ping'er was about to follow behind, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine!
Li Ping'er suddenly turned around and saw Cai Ji's face that should have been handsome but had become distorted appeared in front of her.
Li Ping'er was startled and took several steps back!
"You, who are you?"
Facing the horrified Li Ping'er, Cai Ji smiled, and the smile on his face looked extremely ferocious and strange.
Cai Wei walked towards Li Ping'er step by step.
Li Ping'er could only keep retreating. As she retreated, she also had to look behind her, because she was about to enter an area of the agency that even crazy women were afraid of.
"You are Wu Zhi's woman, right? Why are you here?"
"I remember that Wu Zhi seemed to have brought two people in, but not you."
