[119] Return to the Tiger's Den

Hua Yue immediately heard the footsteps and immediately raised her head to look outside with vigilance.

A masked man in black walked to the cell door. Hua Yue felt that he was looking at her as if he was looking at a piece of goods. However, the aura of this man was very cold. Although she was displeased, she was not stupid enough.

Hit the muzzle of the gun.

"Humph," the man chuckled disdainfully and asked, "Is that her?"

The person holding the torch behind him immediately replied, "Back to my lord, it's her. My subordinates have confirmed that there will be no mistake."

"It doesn't look... that good!" The man obviously had no interest in Hua Yue. He then looked at Wan Qi Lichen and sneered, "Such a pretty woman, how could she

Is there anyone willing to risk it for her?" After saying that, he turned around and left, as if he had come to see her specially.

The man walked to the door of the dungeon, turned around, and ordered, "Keep an eye on these two people, don't neglect them."

Only then did Hua Yue see clearly that there was a middle-aged man wearing gray-blue servant clothes beside him, who nodded and bowed in agreement.

Hua Yue frowned. At first, she thought this was Wan Qiyu's person, but now it seems that it doesn't look like it. If it was really Wan Qiyu, how could he also arrest Wan Qilichen? Besides,

, I am now in the dungeon, but this man is still wearing black clothes. It is obvious that he wants to conceal his identity. As Wan Qiyu is a prince, he cannot escape, so it is obviously not like this. So, what will these be?

who?

"This is not a place to stay for a long time, we have to leave as soon as possible!" Wanqi Lichen suddenly said.

Hua Yue's heart tightened when she heard this, "What do you mean, he will kill us?"

"I don't know whether they will kill us or not, but I am sure that they have some purpose in arresting you. In my opinion, they came for Bai Yi."

Hua Yue thought for a while, and when the person left just now, people looked at them carefully, which meant that they were still useful, but, "How do you know they are here for my husband?"

Wan Qi Lichen glanced at Hua Yue indifferently, "Didn't you listen to what that person said? You are a beautyless woman. Judging from his tone, you can't catch his eye at all? Is it possible that they will do it for you?

Beauty kidnapped you? And you are still locked up in this cold, damp dungeon where you never see the light of day?"

"You!" Hua Yue heard the teasing meaning in his words, and her face immediately turned red with embarrassment. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly remembered something important and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Yeah!"

"What's wrong?" Wan Qilichen thought she had bumped into something and hurriedly came over to check, but Hua Yue said, "What if they take me as a hostage and threaten my husband?"

She suddenly remembered that Bai Yi was currently investigating the case of Prime Minister Meng, and the investigation had reached a critical moment. Now the Second Prince and others have been trying to kill this case, and even Meng Wanjun was in danger... She had been

She was worried that those people would be unfavorable to Boyi, but she never thought that she herself would become Boyi's weakness!

Hua Yue suddenly broke into a cold sweat and grabbed Wan Qi Lichen's arm, "We have to get out of here quickly!"

Wan Qilichen was startled by Hua Yue's nervous tone and thought she was scared. He patted her hand and comforted her, "It's okay, that person won't hurt us for a while!"

Hua Yue shook her head and said anxiously, "No, I can't stay here, I will drag my husband down!"

Wan Qilichen was startled when he heard this, his expression dimmed for a moment, and he said calmly, "Does he regard you as a burden?"

Hua Yue immediately understood that he had misunderstood her, but she couldn't explain the matter for a while. She could only say, "They must be using me to threaten my husband to help them. I will talk about this later."

Please explain, is there any way you can get out?"

Wan Qilichen thought for a while, he went out alone, and he usually didn't like people following him around, so the people in the house probably wouldn't notice that he was missing for a while. It was too much to wait for others to rescue him.

I am passive and I have to think of my own way to get out.

However, they didn't know where this dark dungeon was, let alone how many people were guarding them. The railings were made of iron, so it didn't seem easy to get out.

He looked around in the cell, but couldn't think of any good solution for a while. At this moment, the door of the dungeon opened with a creak, and the servant walked in carrying a simple food box and said:

, "It's time to eat!" and walked towards the room where Hua Yue and Wan Qilichen were.

Wan Qilichen looked at his slow pace, and an idea quickly flashed in his mind. He glanced at Hua Yue, and Hua Yue understood his idea and leaned towards the iron fence.

The man finally walked up to him, squatted down and took out the food from the food box, and handed each plate into the cell. Seeing that he was not guarded, Hua Yue was about to take the opportunity to grab the servant's hand, but she didn't guard herself.

Suddenly, he was tightly grasped by Wan Qilichen.

The servant didn't seem to notice. After delivering the food slowly, he packed up the food box and left.

"What are you doing?!" As soon as the man left, Hua Yue couldn't help but lower her voice and asked Wan Qilichen.

Wan Qilichen glanced at the door and found that there was indeed no one, so he whispered, "That person is very skilled in martial arts. Even if there are two of me, I may not be his opponent."

He originally wanted to seize the opportunity to catch the old slave, get the key from him, and then escape secretly, but he didn't expect that this man was actually a highly skilled martial artist. This method didn't work. It seemed that those people had been on guard against them.

That’s it.

Hua Yue sighed and could only think of other ways. She frowned and walked around the cell, and suddenly said, "Why is it so damp here?"

Wan Qilichen said, "This is a dungeon. The terrain is low and there is no sunlight all year round. Of course it will be damp."

"No, no, that's not what I mean," Hua Yue pointed to the wall to show him. Look here, it's obviously much more humid than the other side of the cell door. Where is the place outside? "

Wan Qilichen also became serious, knocked on the wall, and found that the sound was empty. He frowned and thought for a while, and said, "This wall may not be thick."

Hua Yue said in surprise, "What do you mean?"

Although she has never seen it in person, this does not prevent her from knowing that a person with strong martial arts skills can easily knock down a wall!

Wan Qilichen obviously knew what she was thinking, and smiled bitterly, "Although I can indeed knock down this wall, but..."

In that case, the sound would inevitably be loud, and before they could escape, the guards would have already rushed in.

"What should we do?"

"There is no other way," Wan Qilichen squatted down to clean up the messy grass beside the wall, "dig it out!"

Hua Yue was speechless for a long time, but she also knew that what he said was right. There was no other way at the moment but to squat down and clean up with him.

"I'll do it," Wan Qilichen stopped her, "It's dirty here."

Hua Yue kept moving and rolled her eyes at him, "How can you be so delicate! You don't even care what time it is now, you still have to worry about this, hurry up!"

Seeing that she was determined, Wan Qilichen no longer stopped her, and the two quickly cleared away the weeds by the wall.

Maybe they knew they couldn't escape inside. The guard didn't come in after delivering the food. Hua Yue was worried at first, but after a while, when she saw that there was nothing, she became more courageous.

The wall was indeed not thick. It was dug out around midnight. Hua Yue was so excited that Wanqi Lichen pushed her and said, "Quickly, go out and say something. It's not safe here."

Hua Yue knew that this place was full of dangers, so she didn't say much. She nodded, bent down and got out of the hole less than half a meter high. Wanqi Lichen followed closely behind her and also got out.

Unexpectedly, this is a small village, no wonder the walls are all made of earthen walls! Wan Qi Lichen looked around but there was no movement, and was about to pull Hua Yue away quietly when he suddenly heard a rustling sound not far away.

It came from far and near, and soon it was beside you.

Wan Qi Lichen quickly pulled Hua Yue and squatted in the grass about half a person's height. Fortunately, it was summer, the grass was lush, and it was night, so it was somewhat safe.

I saw a shirtless man walking over, not far from where the two of them were hiding, unbuttoning his pants and starting to drain.

When Hua Yue saw his actions, she cursed in her heart and lowered her head. Seeing Hua Yue's appearance, Wan Qi Lichen couldn't help but laugh softly.

After the man finished relieving himself, he put on his pants in a daze and walked out unsteadily.

When Hua Yue heard the sound, she slowly raised her head, but suddenly froze. She thought she slept until midnight and came out to relieve herself in a hurry, so she was naked and didn't even put on a coat. Because of this, Hua Yue

Only then did Yue clearly see that there was a ferocious wolf head tattooed on his left shoulder, with a long scarlet tongue extending to his back.

She suddenly remembered that some time ago, Bai Yi and Wan Qirui had been investigating a group of people with tattoos. The tattoo pattern was on Bai Yi's desk. Hua Yue had seen it before. Wasn't it the one in front of her?

Although Bai Yi didn't tell her explicitly, he never hid it from her when they talked. As time went by, Hua Yue gradually got to know a little more. The people they had been investigating were the same as Bai Yi back then.

The sudden death of Yi's biological mother has a lot to do with it. However, after those people appeared in the capital for a short period of time, they quickly disappeared without leaving even a trace. Bo Yi traced it for a long time with no results.

Later, he entered the palace and became a guard with a sword in front of the emperor. Things became more and more complicated, so this matter was temporarily shelved.

Who would have thought that Hua Yue would see someone with such a tattoo today, under such circumstances!

"Let's go! It won't take long for them to find out!" Seeing the man walking away, Wan Qilichen pulled Hua Yue and looked around warily.

Hua Yue slowly stood up and said firmly, "I want to go back again."

"What?" Wan Qilichen was startled and grabbed Hua Yue's arm, "Are you crazy?"

"Oh, that's not what I meant! I just wanted to sneak back secretly."

"Don't you know the danger? It won't be long before they find out that we are missing. Why do you have such important matters that you have to risk such a big risk to go back!" As he said this, he suddenly thought of something, "For Bai Yi's sake.

,right?"

Hua Yue smiled and said, "You are so smart!"

Wan Qi Lichen snorted coldly, "Besides Bai Yi, I have never seen you take anything to heart!"

"Okay, okay, don't say any more, you can leave quickly, I want to go back." Hua Yue knew that this was not the place to talk, so she hurriedly pushed Wan Qilichen, asking him to leave quickly. After saying that, she turned around and asked him to leave.

go back.

Wan Qilichen grabbed her and said, "Aren't you afraid that they will find you?"

"No," Hua Yue said firmly, "the most dangerous place is the safest place. When they see us running away, they will definitely go out to chase us as soon as possible, but they never thought that I would go back, so instead, I

It will be safer, so don’t worry!”

Wan Qi Lichen curled his lips, "In that case... then I want to stay in the safest place, so let's go quickly!" As he said that, he pulled Hua Yue back and quietly sneaked towards the yard.

Hua Yue was shocked and moved when she saw that he actually wanted to accompany her. She knew that he did this entirely because he didn't trust her, and she also knew that since he had decided, even if she objected, he would not listen.
