Chapter 368 Has Your Majesty been intercepted by Lingzhou?
"Don't be afraid." Lingzhou leaned forward slightly so that Chu Xingchen would not fall down. He patted the hand in front of Chu Xingchen and said, "Hold it firmly and close your eyes."
He threw back the quilt in his hand, hugged Chu Xingchen directly, grabbed the chess pieces on the side and started to deal with the mouse.
No matter whether alive or dead, mice are ugly. Except for the first one, Lingzhou subconsciously led all the mice to a corner and killed them.
One chess piece and one mouse, neat and tidy.
Chu Xingchen closed his eyes, but he could hear the sound and finally stopped, "Are you okay?"
Lingzhou rolled his eyes, "I'm not sure yet, let me check again."
After getting rid of the mouse, Ling Zhou felt relaxed. It was rare for him to be so close to Chu Xingchen, and he was a little reluctant to part with him.
Chu Xingchen really thought there was something else at first, but after a while he noticed something strange.
She opened her eyes and understood immediately, "Ling Zhou, are you looking for death? You lied to me on purpose!"
Lingzhou felt regretful, "I'm looking for it."
"Put me down quickly!"
Lingzhou was reluctant to leave, but still turned around and put her down as instructed, "Don't look back, I'll go take care of the body."
Don't scare your majesty again.
"Okay." Chu Xingchen breathed out, walked straight to the stone door without looking back, and knocked tentatively.
"Zhou Buyan, are you outside?"
The stone door is very thick and there is no response.
Ling Zhou heard her reciting Zhou Buyan again and hummed in a low voice, "You were holding me tightly just now. Now I'm not afraid anymore and you're starting to recite your beloved Zhou Buyan again."
Chu Xingchen knocked several times without giving up, but got no response.
"Stop knocking and give up. This stone door is very thick and you shouldn't be able to hear it from outside."
"Then what should we do? We have to go out, can we knock back again?"
"This kind of mechanism is uncertain, and there may be other dangers, just like just now."
Lingzhou said seriously, "Your Majesty and I are the only ones here. My suggestion is not to take risks, or wait for people outside to save us."
"If nothing else, there must be an open mechanism outside."
"Yeah?"
"Yes, so your Majesty, don't take risks. Brother Xiao Wang and Zhou Buyan happen to know that we are inside, and they will definitely find a way to rescue us."
Chu Xingchen believed this.
"Then we can only wait?"
What the hell is this? He was locked up with Ling Zhou, or even Zhou Buyan.
"This is the best way at the moment. Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will protect you."
Ling Zhou made a serious promise to Chu Xingchen, and there was worry in his brows, but he turned his head and the corners of his mouth rose quickly for a moment.
This was an opportunity created by God for him to be alone.
A lonely man and a widow live together in the same room. This is because God loves him, and he must seize the opportunity.
Lingzhou thought and straightened his clothes and hair calmly. At this moment, he was His Majesty's only support.
Chu Xingchen didn't notice anything unusual about Lingzhou and was leaning against the stone door to listen to the sounds outside.
Zhou Buyan must be worried, and he must be trying his best to save her. He should think of a way soon.
Chu Xingchen guessed that Zhou Buyan was indeed worried about him and wanted to save her with all his strength, but the situation outside was not as optimistic as she thought.
Zhou Buyan just got the tea and as soon as he turned around, he met Xiao Wang.
Xiao Wang looked at the tea in Zhou Buyan's hand and was speechless. Unexpectedly, he also noticed it.
Just as Xiao Wang was about to speak, he heard a roaring sound.
Zhou Buyan's expression changed and he flew back quickly, but he didn't have time.
The stone gate happened to be closed when he arrived.
"Your Majesty! What's going on!"
"Maybe some other mechanism was triggered." Xiao Wang also came over, "Let's find a mechanism to open..."
Before he finished speaking, water suddenly overflowed under his feet. Accompanied by a gurgling sound, the water quickly covered his ankles.
"not good."
The expressions of Xiao Wang and Zhou Buyan changed at the same time. They were not proficient in these mechanisms, but they did understand some basic principles.
Combined with the function of this secret passage, I quickly guessed that it was to clean up the people who broke into the secret room, or to give the people in the secret room a chance to escape.
"We have to find the mechanism."
The water quickly covered my knees, thighs, and waist.
They found a stone button that looked like a mechanism, but it seemed to be out of action. Pressing it had no effect.
The water overflowed his chest, and Xiao Wang soon felt suffocated, but he gritted his teeth and persisted until his neck.
"Zhou Buyan, we have to leave first."
Zhou Buyan and Xiao Wang left first, and he continued to look for it. He had to leave until the water came over his head.
"If there is water inside, then Your Majesty..."
Zhou Buyan gritted his teeth, "We must find a way to open it."
He had previously sent people to check the situation at the exit to see if they could go in. If they could, they could also rescue His Majesty.
But the news soon came that the exit was also closed. Tianliu and another shadow followed Chu Xingchen, but because they were in a secret passage, they were directly isolated.
The exit has also been blocked.
"We can't wait like this, we have to open it no matter what."
Xiao Wang stopped Zhou Buyan, "No, we can't destroy it by force, otherwise your majesty may be in more danger."
The most fearful thing about the mechanism technique is to force it to open and destroy it. If you are not careful, it may cause self-destruction, which is even more detrimental to Your Majesty and the others.
Zhou Buyan's eyes turned red, "We can't forcefully destroy it, can we just wait like this?"
He regretted it deeply in his heart. He had known that he would never leave His Majesty.
"Think of other ways." Not only Zhou Buyan was anxious, Xiao Wang was also anxious.
His mind was spinning wildly, and he brought in the people who dug the secret tunnel, "This is the secret escape tunnel. We were blocked, probably to give the people in the secret room time to escape."
"So, there may be some danger inside, but it shouldn't be fatal. With Ling Zhou here, His Majesty's safety should not be a problem for the time being. As long as we get through it, the mechanism may be activated again. I read it in a book before
Pass."
Xiao Wang's words are well-founded and can make people feel a little relieved.
But...it's just a little bit of relief.
Ling Zhou's presence is beneficial to Chu Xingchen's safety, but on the other hand, it is also dangerous.
Because... a man and a woman live together in the same room and depend on each other for life. If Ling Zhou saves His Majesty and becomes her support, it will be a good opportunity for the relationship to heat up.
Lingzhou had always been ready to take action, always thinking about how to make His Majesty take responsibility, and he always wanted to have a child.
Under such circumstances, there is no guarantee that something will not happen.
Lingzhou usually behaves like a child, but he is also a man, and he is still a hot-blooded man. How could he hold back when facing His Majesty whom he likes?
Moreover, His Majesty actually likes Lingzhou. Under such special circumstances, there is no guarantee that he will not be soft-hearted.
Xiao Wang thought a lot for a while. He glanced at Zhou Buyan, who was wet all over and with red eyes, staring at the secret passage, and something complicated flashed through his heart.
I had always thought that Zhou Buyan and His Majesty would be the first to consummate their marriage, but now it looks like they will be intercepted by Lingzhou if there is no chance.
It just so happened that there was a jade bed inside.
If Lingzhou really intercepted Hu...
Xiao Wang exhaled a deep breath, and couldn't help but clenched his hands into fists. He didn't know whether it was good or bad for a moment.
Naturally, he didn't want this to be the result. What man would want this?
But rationally speaking, maybe this is an opportunity for His Majesty to make an exception and accept them from now on.
