The sun had set in the west, and Shen Zhiqiao and Qi Muzhu had been squatting in the forest for a few hours already.
He wanted to just sit on the ground, but was stopped by Qi Muzhu who shook his head and whispered to him, "Second Sister-in-law, that man is a martial artist, he has sharp ears and will be able to tell the moment the wind blows, so ? Second Sister-in-law, please bear with it. "
"?" Shen Zhiqiao wanted to cry.
To be honest, ever since she teleported here, in the past six years, other than sometimes angering the Jing and freezing her off for a few days, she had always lived a life of luxury and luxury.
In the past six years, she had almost never traveled far. The furthest she could go was the last time she went to the hunting grounds.
So even if he was covered in coarse meat, which had been raised like this by the Jing for six years, no matter how rough it was, it still became expensive.
Sighing in his heart, he really didn't know if he should feel happy or sad.
Just as she was thinking, the smell of milk suddenly came out from her nose. Shen Zhiqiao looked down and saw that Xiao Si had given her a few pastries that were wrapped in a white silk handkerchief.
"Second Sister-in-law, have some first." Second Sister-in-law, eat first. Qi Muzhu said softly, and signaled her to catch it.
Shen Zhiqiao's eyes lit up, she immediately extended her hand to grab the pastries, and just as she was about to put a piece into her mouth, she felt that the embroidered handkerchief was extremely familiar, and raised her head to look at Qi Muzhu in puzzlement, only to see a pair of beautiful eyes staring straight at her, her heart trembling.
"Xiao Si, didn't I give this to you earlier? "Why don't you eat it?"
When they went out in the morning, she didn't think that Qishan would be so dangerous in the past and thought that it wouldn't be a problem to go back and forth in three days. She only brought one day's worth of rations and waited for Lanjun to arrive in Qishan so she wouldn't be hungry.
When the evening light shone on Qi Muzhu's beautiful and embarrassed face, it made his face seem even more tender and red. He resentfully turned his eyes away, "Second Sister-in-law, I'm not hungry ?"
How could she not be hungry? If he wasn't hungry, why would he have looked at the pastries in her hands like that just now?! Shen Zhiqiao frowned, she wanted to return the pastries in her hands to him. She was already so caring towards her brother-in-law, how could she, her sister-in-law, eat her pastries.
What's more, his age happened to be the time when he was growing up. Compared to her, he was much more ? "Ugh ?" More needed!
Just as he reached out his hand, a fiery light flashed in front of him.
A bad premonition surfaced in her heart. Shen Zhiqiao turned to look, and nearly got blinded by the magnificent scene before him!
His heart was thumping hard, and his words started to tremble, "Small, Xiao Si, he ? he really, really set fire to it?!"
Qi Muzhu's eyes slightly widened, obviously not expecting him to really light a fire.
Once he released his fire, if Lou Lanjun truly appeared, then naturally, he could undo the formation laid out on the ground. At that time, it would be too late for him to leave the valley before the fire spread.
But if the Lou Lanjun did not appear, wouldn't they all die in this fire?!
The trees in the forest had been exposed to the sun for a whole day and had yet to lose their heat. Some of the dry leaves had already started to burn, showing signs of spreading.
In short, the fire was terrifying, and after a while, a large cloud of dense smoke started to rise from the forest, causing Shen Zhiqiao to secretly cough as she covered her mouth.
Seeing that, Qi Muzhu could not care about anything else, he pulled at his sleeves and used the fastest speed to take down the water bottle tied around his waist to pour some water on the cloth, and then handed the cloth to her, "Second Sister-in-law, cover your nose and breath ?"
Shen Zhiqiao's eyes were already filled with tears from the smoke, he took the cloth from Yue Yang's hand and covered her nose, only to see that he did not prepare anything for herself, and asked: "Xiao Si, you don't want it?"
Qi Muzhu stared at the empty water bottle on the ground, a light flashed in his eyes, "There's no need, I'm a martial artist, this smoke is nothing to me."
Shen Zhiqiao did not doubt him and nodded and leaned on the tree trunk, "Xiao Si, what do we do now?! Can you still go back the way you came? "
"Besides breaking the formation, all we can do is wait." Qi Muzhu closed his eyes, and used his hand to cover his nose and mouth, taking the chance to take a deep breath.
"?" As if she had already predicted this would happen, Shen Zhiqiao calmly accepted the news that could be called a thunderbolt from the blue.
He still held the pastries that Xiao Si had just given her and was no longer in the mood to eat them, so he simply closed his eyes and leaned against the tree, waiting for the best outcome, or die!
Touching her chest, Shen Zhiqiao curled her lips. What do I do, I really miss Jing. If he could return safely this time, she would definitely deal with him!
She couldn't just give him a free kiss every time, and not do any real work. Her dignity as a woman also needed to be preserved!
Seeing that the fire was approaching towards the two, Qi Muzhu stared ahead with his sharp eyes. His thin white forehead was already filled with dense beads of sweat, and one could even see his lower jaw that was tensed up to the point that it was bulging.
He was waiting. If the Lou Lanjun did not appear, he would bring her along and leave this place. As for whether or not he could leave this place safely, let alone whether or not he could leave this place.
The process of waiting was always very long and without boundaries, and it was even more profound for Shen Zhiqiao and Qi Muzhu who were currently in the midst of their "fire and water".
Qi Muzhu's face had already changed color a little, some of the seedlings had already landed on his hair. Looking at the woman leaning against the tree, her soft and tender face was slightly pale, probably because she was covered by the wet cloth.
He knew that he couldn't wait any longer. If he waited any longer, the two of them would be in danger. What was even worse was ? He could not hold on any longer!
