Chapter 369 Come On, Your Majesty, Kiss Me Quickly
Thinking too much at the same time, Xiao Wang was in a state of confusion, but the only thing that remained the same was that His Majesty must be rescued as soon as possible.
Saving His Majesty was Zhou Buyan's only idea.
There is nothing you can do about the entrance on the other side, so both sides should work together to find a way.
Zhou Buyan first wanted to pump the water away, but soon found that this was in vain.
This water may have been brought from the moat, and if it is drained away, it will fill up again, which is just a useless effort.
Zhou Buyan went into the water several times to look for traps, but to no avail.
As time passed, Zhou Buyan lost control of her emotions. Although she might not be in danger, she was still thirsty and might be hungry now.
This was the most uncomfortable thing. He had been hungry and thirsty before, and he knew how uncomfortable it felt. He didn't want His Majesty to taste such pain at all.
Soon, a trustworthy person who knew the secrets of the mechanism was secretly brought in. After careful inspection, he came to a conclusion similar to Xiao Wang's.
And at this moment, after observation, we found that the water level was slowly dropping.
"This mechanism is to give the escapees time. If nothing happens, it will recover within a certain period of time. When the water dries up, the mechanism will open again and the stone door can be opened."
The most important thing is that you really cannot force it open, otherwise the inside may start to self-destruct.
This kind of mechanism arrangement is usually used in secret rooms or tombs to prevent theft.
Zhou Buyan didn't dare to take risks or gamble, fearing that Chu Xingchen and the others would be completely buried by stones and sand, so he could only wait for this road.
This wait lasted a whole day, from morning to evening, and then to midnight.
Usually a day and a night always pass by very quickly, but this day and night felt as long as a lifetime.
Zhou Buyan's expression became worse and worse, and his whole person became more and more dangerous, like a ferocious beast that kept roaring and roaring.
If Chu Xingchen had the slightest accident, he might destroy the whole world.
After a long time, when the water finally subsided, Zhou Buyan immediately pressed the switch.
Fortunately, this time the switch worked and the stone door opened.
Zhou Buyan rushed in first.
What caught his eye was Lingzhou throwing himself on Chu Xingchen, as if he was going to pick her up, but also seemed to be blocking her.
He only had his middle coat on him, and the outer coat was on Chu Xingchen.
And Chu Xingchen was lying on the jade bed, woke up in a daze, his forehead was a little red, and he was about to get out of Lingzhou's clothes.
The moment Zhou Buyan saw the two of them, his eyes turned red, but he seemed to calm down soon after.
The calm before the storm.
Lingzhou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the stone door was open. He slumped on the ground with his hands hanging on the jade bed, "I told you that you would find a way to open the stone door and save us."
His voice was hoarse and there was a red patch on his forehead, similar to Chu Xingchen's.
Xiao Wang followed Zhou Buyan and was relieved to see that Chu Xingchen was safe. When he saw their appearance, he was a little unsure about the situation of the two of them.
He walked quickly towards Chu Xingchen, but before he could say anything, Zhou Buyan had already passed by and knelt on one knee in front of the jade bed.
"His Majesty..."
"I'm fine."
"With me here, what can happen to her?" Ling Zhou said unconvincedly and reached out to help Chu Xingchen who was getting up.
Zhou Buyan directly picked up Chu Xingchen and walked out.
Xiao Wang paused and hurriedly followed, but Lingzhou was left behind.
"Hey, there is still me, can't you see me? You don't care about me anymore? You can't do this to me!"
Chu Xingchen saw Xiao Wang's worried look behind him and smiled, "I'm fine."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xingchen felt that Xiao Wang was quickly moving away from him, and he would soon be out of sight.
It was Zhou Buyan who sped up.
Ling Zhou's voice was heard in the distance, "Your Majesty, wait for me, you can't do this to me, we just..."
His voice sped up again because of Zhou Buyan, and soon he couldn't hear it anymore.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Xingchen returned to Liangyi Hall.
"Is your Majesty thirsty?"
Hearing Zhou Buyan's voice, Chu Xingchen came back to his senses and said, "Well, I'm very thirsty."
After drinking a full bowl of water, she exhaled and asked, "Did Lingzhou and I be imprisoned for a day and a night?"
"It was midnight." Zhou Buyan calmly threw Lingzhou's clothes into the corner, "Did you encounter any danger?"
"Yes, there were arrows as soon as the stone door was closed, and then there were rats. It scared me to death. Fortunately, Lingzhou was there. Lingzhou blocked the arrows and killed all the rats."
Chu Xingchen looked at Zhou Buyan's red eyes, brewing a storm, as if she was holding back something, she paused to explain.
"Lingzhou and I didn't do anything. We just played backgammon and the loser flicked his forehead."
Because they were locked up in a secret room with Ling Zhou, there were only two of them having a lot of fun.
Lingzhou confirmed that there was no danger, and thought that Xiao Wangzhou would try his best to save them, so he felt that maybe God had given him a chance, and he was quite happy.
He wanted to take the opportunity to warm up his relationship with Chu Xingchen. He had Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, and even deliberately scared Chu Xingchen twice.
"mouse!"
Chu Xingchen reflexively jumped up and hid behind him, "Where!"
Ling Zhou looked at Chu Xingchen's hand holding his arm, reached out and patted it, "I made a mistake. I just saw a shadow running over."
"Scared me to death."
Chu Xingchen didn't notice it the first time, but Lingzhou quickly started the second time.
Then Chu Xingchen noticed something, "Did you deliberately lie to me and scare me?"
She hit Lingzhou hard and said, "I will never be fooled by you again."
"I didn't lie to you." Lingzhou refused, "Your Majesty, if you are afraid, you can stay closer to me."
Chu Xingchen ignored him.
Ling Zhou held his chin with his hand and stared at Chu Xingchen, "Your Majesty, it's been a long time since we had a good conversation. You are always in a hurry."
Chu Xingchen felt a little uncomfortable, "That's not busy."
"You are obviously hiding from me." Lingzhou snorted, "Fortunately, God has eyes and locked us together. Let me see where else you can hide."
He crooked Chu Xingchen with his elbow, "God wants us to be together. We can't waste God's wishes."
Chu Xingchen: "...We are so unlucky, and you still want to play God's mind."
"Maybe it's just good intentions."
Lingzhou straightened his back as he spoke, coughed, and his voice was slightly lowered, "It's rare to be alone. Is there anything you want to say or do, Your Majesty?"
Afraid that Chu Xingchen wouldn't understand, he added, "A man and a woman living together in the same room will never understand, so I can do whatever I want."
That little look seemed to say, come on, Your Majesty, knock me down quickly.
Chu Xingchen: "...I want to drink water, I'm thirsty."
Lingzhou was stunned, "Your Majesty, you are thirsty."
He felt around on his body and found a water bag.
Chu Xingchen's eyes lit up, "You still carry water with you?"
Lingzhou coughed and said, "No, this is wine, not water, but wine and water are almost the same. You can drink some to moisten your throat."
