Chapter 624 The Strategy of the Double-faced Male God (49)

Two quarters of an hour later, the two hungry people finally had a warm meal.

"Is this the capital city?" Xie Mingyuan asked the old woman while putting vegetables in his mouth.

The old woman waved her hand, indicating that she didn't know.

"Then where do you live? Are you also in the house?"

The old woman raised her finger and pointed to the outside of the yard, and made two gestures, indicating that she lived not far away.

"Only you?"

nod.

Xie Mingyuan sighed in frustration.

"Old lady, thank you." Seeing that Xie Mingyuan had finished eating, Wen Xiao took the initiative to stand up and clear away the dishes on the table, "You take a break, I'll do it!"

Xie Mingyuan looked at the back of the girl holding the bowl and chopsticks, a glint of light flashed in his eyes, and the expression hidden in the shadow made it hard to see clearly.

After seeing off the old lady, the two of them thought about finding a place with high ground, and wanted to see where they were.

But as soon as they walked into the woods outside the small courtyard, the two felt something was wrong.

"Why is there such a thick fog..." Wen Xiao frowned and looked at the whiteness in front of him, "I can't even tell the direction of this ghostly place, right?"

"It stands to reason that there shouldn't be such a thick fog in this season," Xie Mingyuan touched his chin. "Could this be a means to prevent people from entering and leaving at will?"

After hearing Xie Mingyuan's words, Wen Xiao had some bad premonitions in her heart.

If this is really a means to prevent others from coming in and out at will, then with their two salty fish skills... they will definitely not be able to get out.

The old lady came to cook for them at fixed times every day. Originally, they wanted to follow the old lady out, but found that she lived very close to this small yard, and there was a vegetable field attached to it. The ones dug out of the ground are obviously self-sufficient.

They tried many methods, but the farthest they could go was only a few hundred meters, let alone finding a high place to check the surrounding situation.

"Don't worry, there will always be a way," Xie Mingyuan hugged Wen Xiao's shoulders and comforted him, "Fortunately, I have three meals a day, so I won't starve to death here."

Wen Xiao nodded, feeling very helpless.

Could it be that the only way to get out is to wait for Yuan Ming to appear again?
Seeing her worried look, Xie Mingyuan softened his tone and said, "Don't worry, Yuan Ming has always been very purposeful in doing things. As long as he achieves his purpose, we will naturally be released."

"But what is his purpose?" Wen Xiao turned his head to look at Xie Mingyuan, "Is it just to win over the Wen family and deal with the prince?"

"...Maybe," Xie Mingyuan lowered his brows and said softly, "I believe he won't hurt you, after all you saved his life."

Wen Xiao curled her lips, obviously not taking this statement to heart.

"Stay around and have nothing to do. Let's go to the study to find a few books and see if we can find a way to break through the fog outside." Xie Mingyuan raised his head and smiled, "I saw several books when I went to the study to check the books. It's a priceless copy!"

Seeing his optimistic look, Wen Xiao couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled.

The two entered the study one after the other, each picked up a book and began to read.

The whole afternoon was spent in each other's quiet breathing.

After reading half of the book, Wen Xiao felt drowsy. She yawned a little, leaned on the imperial concubine's couch, and slowly fell asleep.

When Xie Mingyuan looked up at her, the girl was already fast asleep.
