C45 We're Just Passing by

It was unknown what Dang Gui was doing up above as she walked around. Chi Qingyu waited for a long time, but she still hadn't seen anyone. She couldn't help but shout, "Dang Gui!"

"Ai!"

His reply was quite quick. As soon as Chi Qingyu shouted, a reply came from the other side.

"What are you doing? Hurry up and think of a way to get me up there. It's dark and damp down here, and I can't get up there myself! "

Chi Qingyu tilted her head back as she tiptoed, looking for a place to grab.

However, the whole cave wall was filled with flat soil. This was obviously a man-made cave, and Chi Qingyu had probably fallen into a trap set up by the hunters.

Thinking about this, Chi Qingyu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. She should be glad that there was no sharp item waiting for her inside the cave when she fell down. Usually, hunters would place traps or sharp items inside when they were digging.

"It's here, it's here!" "Don't be in such a hurry!" The sound of Dang Gui came closer, and Chi Qingyu could feel his footsteps above her head.

Chi Qingyu had been looking up at the hole in the ground, hoping that after looking for so long, she would be able to throw a rope or vine down. However, the next moment, a head popped out of the hole with a cold yet good-looking face.

"Young Master Xie?" Chi Qingyu was stunned.

The cave was too dark. With Xie Qirann's exceptional eyesight, he could only see Chi Qingyu's pair of clear eyes looking at him eagerly. The frosty expression on her face faded into a smile. "Doctor Chi, what a coincidence."

What a coincidence! Chi Qingyu couldn't help but curse loudly in her heart. Was this a good coincidence? And why did he call Xie Qirann over to help him?

Wait a minute, what were they doing here in the wilderness?

Chi Qingyu had ten thousand questions on her mind, but her expression remained calm. "Yes, what a coincidence."

At this time, Angelica also stuck her head out and looked at Chi Qingyu who was in the cave, "Doctor Chi, I've asked Mistress to come over and help, he definitely has a way to bring you up here."

Chi Qingyu glanced at Xie Qirann and nodded.

Seeing that she didn't seem to be in pain at all, as if the person who urged Angelica to help her up earlier wasn't him, Xie Qirann hid his smile in his eyes and asked seriously, "Are you hurt?"

After all, she was the one who had to save him now. Chi Qingyu was still very polite and answered without hesitation, "No."

Xie Qirann nodded and continued, "Don't stand in the middle, go stand in the corner."

Chi Qingyu nodded and walked over to stand against the wall of the cave. However, the cave was only so wide. No matter how she fought her way to the corner, it was impossible for her to leave the cave.

Seeing that she vacated the middle seat, Xie Qirann stood up and jumped into the hole.

In just a blink of an eye, Chi Qingyu heard the sound of wind and saw another person in front of her.

"You …" Chi Qingyu looked at the person in front of her with a face full of disbelief.

Xie Qirann smiled at her and put his arm around her waist, "Sorry about that."

Chi Qingyu then felt her feet off the ground, her body weightless, and the rest of her thoughts out of her mind.

By the time her feet touched the ground, she was already on top of him.

Seeing them come up, Dang Gui walked over and said with a smile: "You still have a way. I've searched for a long time but still couldn't find anything that could pull her up."

Xie Qirann let go of Chi Qingyu's arms and put her behind him.

"The vines in this area are too small to support a person's weight. Even if you find them, it would be useless."

"Thank goodness I brought you out today. Otherwise, I wouldn't even know what to do!"

Xie Qirann smiled without saying a word. He looked at Chi Qingyu and asked, "Are you alright?"

Chi Qingyu finally regained her senses and touched her neck. "Thank you."

Xie Qirann smiled. "You're welcome."

What do you mean, looking for a rope? It would be better to find a person with kung fu skills and bring them up for her. It would save her a lot of energy. How great would that be!

Seeing Chi Qingyu with the basket on her back, Dang Gui looked over and asked, "Are you here to pick herbs?"

Chi Qingyu nodded. "There is a patient who needs very few medicinal ingredients. I can only try my luck at the mountain."

Hearing that, Dang Gui frowned and said, "Doctor Chi, you're just a woman, it's not safe for you to be by yourself in the end. If you need any medicinal ingredients, you can directly send someone over to my place. You don't have to be courteous to me."

Chi Qingyu, on the other hand, had forgotten that there was another person who deserved it. Hearing how loyal he was, she couldn't help but smile and say, "Then, thank you. Next time, I'll definitely not be polite."

Angelica nodded, his attention was now on her face, and he said puzzledly: "Why do you still have to change your appearance when you go up the mountain to gather herbs? If you don't say anything, we won't be able to recognize you. "

Chi Qingyu touched her face and smiled in a very obscure manner. "This is a long story. If there's a chance, I'll tell you guys. Why are you guys here?"

This question had been lingering in Chi Qingyu's mind for a long time.

Dang Gui glanced at Xie Qirann and laughed, "I came to pick some herbs because the weather today is not bad. I didn't expect that I would run into you so coincidentally."

He dragged Master out to gather herbs? That doesn't make any sense at all, does it? His subordinate had brought his superior to gather medicinal herbs, but he had never heard of such a thing.

"Aren't you two related to the master and his servant?" Chi Qingyu asked.

Dang Gui was stunned for a moment. He looked at Xie Qirann and pouted, "You can say that. We grew up together, dear friend, you understand, right?"

She understands, but.

"Then why did you call him master?" Chi Qingyu continued to ask with the spirit of searching for the truth.

"... "Because Han Jiu often shouts like that, I also shouted along with him. I'm already used to it by now." His eyes were wide open as he said these words in all seriousness.

Chi Qingyu believed this reason and turned around to look at the hole. The cave entrance was filled with weeds, if one did not look carefully, one would not be able to see that there was a hole here.

The person digging the hole had also gone through a lot of trouble. The hole was right under the slope, and the grass was blocking the hole. If the person walking was not careful and stepped on the wrong foot, they would fall down.

Seeing Chi Qingyu's gaze fall on the cave, Xie Qirann walked over and stood beside her, "This should be a trap made by a hunter, but the hunt is over and we didn't clean up the mess."

Chi Qingyu: "…"

"Stop looking, we're already out. What else is there to look at? Let's go. It's getting late, we should get down the mountain." Dang Gui blocked their line of sight and indicated that they should stop looking at the hole.

Looking at the color of the sky, Chi Qingyu really should go back. Otherwise, Yunniang and the rest would also be worried.

The three of them descended the mountain and arrived at the foot of the mountain. Chi Qingyu noticed a carriage parked at the foot of the mountain. The familiar appearance of the carriage was the one Xie Qirann rode in that day.

Xie Qirann invited Chi Qingyu into the carriage to send her back.

Indeed, Chi Qingyu was tired today. She did not push him away and got into the carriage.

Chi Qingyu, who was sitting on the rocking carriage and the soft carpet, had unknowingly fallen asleep.

Xie Qirann took out a blanket from somewhere and placed it on the back of Chi Qingyu's head, making her sleep more comfortably.

After an unknown amount of time, the carriage stopped and opened the curtain from outside. He saw Xie Qirann sitting upright with Chi Qingyu leaning on his leg, sleeping peacefully.

Dang Gui looked at Xie Qirann in surprise, pointed at Chi Qingyu, and then pointed at him.

Xie Qirann glanced at him and signaled him to put down the curtain.

He then closed the curtain with a smile on his face.
