Chapter 182 The Rivers and Lakes (31) Leave
Ming Xu likes to be in a daze when he was in Xuangu, he can sit alone for a long time, his mind is blank, he doesn't think about anything, or he doesn't know what to think about.

I can't remember the past, I don't want to recall the present, I don't want to think about the future, and I can only leave a blank in the end.

But Ming Qi is different. He has many small hobbies, such as carving or carving jade, and often makes some delicate things to pass the time.

So sometimes Ming Xu would sit next to Ming Qi and watch him make things, as if he was in a daze in a different place.

Now Ming Xu is watching Ming Qi carving a piece of jade, his memory is a bit hazy at this moment, he doesn't remember when he came here, he doesn't remember what day it is now, he doesn't even know where this place is, he only knows that he has been here for a long time .

As time went by, the jade in Ming Qi's hand gradually revealed its shape, it looked like a delicate jade pendant, the patterns were not complicated but very beautiful.

"It's been a long time, don't you have anything else to do?" Ming Qi said casually, concentrating on fiddling with the jade in his hand.

Ming Xu was stunned, looked up at Ming Qi, thought about it seriously, and then shook her head.

This answer made Ming Qi very helpless, frowned slightly, put down the jade temporarily, and said: "Then find something to do, plant some flowers, if you have time, you will be in a daze, I am afraid that you will be in a daze someday."

"The land in Xuangu is not suitable for growing flowers and they cannot be raised." Ming Xu replied seriously.

Ming Qi was even more helpless, and said clearly: "I mean, I want you to find some hobbies, besides being in a daze, find something you want to do."

Ming Xu thought for a while, and then turned his attention to the raw jade on the table. Ming Qi probably guessed what he meant, and immediately said, "Try not to be like me. Let you find what you like to do. Do you like carving jade?"

"Fortunately."

"That's because I don't like it," Ming Qi said decisively, "Find another one."

After talking about something, Ming Qi thought of something again, and said to himself: "You really can say 'it's okay' for everything, even if you have a meal, if you order it, you can order it the same as I order every time, you like it Why don’t you know? Can you still be the same as me everywhere? What about wishes, goals? Are they all the same?”

There were so many questions at once, and Ming Xu couldn't answer them.

Ming Qi and him looked at each other for a while, then asked hesitantly: "You can't say that they can be the same?"

Ming Xu doesn't know what Ming Qi's specific wishes and goals are, but it feels like it should be something good, so it doesn't seem too bad to say the same thing, right?
"No! This one can't be the same!" Ming Qi seemed to have guessed his thoughts, and warned seriously: "Only this one can't, you have to think about it yourself!"

Ming Qi's reaction was a little big, and Ming Xu didn't know what was going on, but she nodded immediately and said, "It's different, I'll think about it."

Ming Qi glanced at him, and finally emphasized it worriedly, "It's not allowed to be like me, this kind of thinking is not allowed, do you hear me?"

Ming Xu agreed again, but Ming Qi's reaction aroused his curiosity, he hesitated, and asked tentatively, "So what is your wish?"

Ming Qi took care of the jade in his hand, and said softly, "It has nothing to do with you, so don't ask."

Seeing that people don't want to talk about Ming Xu, it's not easy to ask, and continue to sit and watch the jade pendant gradually take shape. The surrounding is very quiet, and only the sound of jade and stone rubbing against each other can be heard...

But at this moment, Ming Qi stopped moving again, and said in a serious tone, even a little angry: "How long are you going to stay here?"

Ming Xu didn't know why he suddenly got angry, and was at a loss for a while.

"You shouldn't be here anymore, go quickly." Ming Qi reminded.

Ming Xu subconsciously asked, "Where should I go?"

Ming Qi looked up at him, sighed, and softened his tone, "It's not here anyway, let's go."

"I..." At this moment, a trace of confusion suddenly rose in Ming Xu's heart. This place feels quiet and peaceful, why should he leave?
"I don't want to leave..." Ming Xu whispered.

"No." Ming Qi was surprisingly firm on this matter, leaving no stone unturned.

However, Ming Xu still didn't move. He sat quietly on the side and said slowly: "But is there a place outside that I can go to?"

The world is so big, does it really have its own place?

Ming Qi was silent for a while, moved closer, put his hands on his shoulders, and whispered softly: "I don't know this question, and I shouldn't answer it, but you have to go and find your own desire and goal in life. , let’s go, go quickly!”

Immediately afterwards, Ming Qi suddenly exerted force with his hand, and directly pushed the person away. Ming Xu accidentally couldn't maintain his balance, and instantly fell backward──
But the body did not fall to the ground as expected, a continuous sense of weightlessness came, and the body fell, as if falling into an abyss!
The person in front of her gradually became distant, Ming Xu subconsciously stretched out her hand towards him, but she couldn't touch anything.

Various sounds began to appear in my ears, like wind, rain and human voices, noisy and noisy.

Finally, darkness came from all directions like a tide, wrapping Ming Xu involuntarily and quickly taking him away from here!
Ming Xu opened his eyes──
The vision gradually becomes clearer, and the gloomy prison cell is reflected in the eyes. The cold touch of the stone bricks and the pain in the body are extremely obvious. This is reality, not a hazy and quiet dream...

It is rare that Ming Xu remembered everything in the dream this time.

His head hurts a bit, and he was just about to try to move his body when there was a slapping sound not far away, and someone knocked on the door and asked, "Hello, hello? Are you awake? React if you're not dead."

The old man who knocked on the door was the old man who was now responsible for guarding. He felt a little uneasy at the moment. Ming Xu hadn't even taken a sip of water in the past few days. When he saw him today, he was lying on the ground. There was no movement for a long time. He couldn't help but I became worried, after all, Elder Xuan specifically emphasized that people are not allowed to die early.

However, the people in the cell didn't move after calling five or six times today. The old man was so flustered that he finally couldn't help but temporarily opened the door and went inside to check Ming Xu's breathing.

The old man walked up to Ming Xu, and just squatted down, the person who had been silent all this time suddenly opened his eyes, grabbed his arm and yanked it off!
The old man was accidentally dragged and fell to the ground. Before he could react, a chain coiled around his neck in an instant and tightened immediately!
The feeling of suffocation came instantly, and the old man struggled desperately, swinging his limbs to try to grab something to use his strength to break free.

But the more he struggled, the tighter the chain around his neck contracted. His throat was so tightly blocked that he couldn't even cry out for help!
The old man really didn't expect Ming Xu to be able to do this when he was half-dead, and a few days ago he felt that he wanted to die, why did he suddenly resist today? !
However, the answers to these things have nothing to do with the old man. With a "click", he stopped struggling completely, his neck twisted into a strange angle, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he died.

Ming Xu made sure that the man was completely unresponsive before releasing his hand, and the corpse "thumped" to the ground, kicking up a trace of dust.

Taking a breath, Ming Xu immediately began to search for the key on the corpse. His hands and feet were locked by long chains, and he had to untie them before he could leave.

It's a pity that the key doesn't seem to be with the old man.

The search was fruitless, so Ming Xu had no choice but to try to open the chain in other ways. The guards in the cell patrolled about every half an hour, so he had to be as soon as possible.

Coincidentally, just after this thought, there was a sudden sound from the corner outside the cell, as if someone was slowly walking over.

To be honest, the sound didn't sound like a patrolling guard, but Ming Xu was on high alert at the moment, staring at the corner. When he saw the figure appearing, he subconsciously shot out the gravel in his hand without even thinking about it!
Ming Xu used all her strength in this blow, and it might punch a hole in someone directly!

However, the figure's reaction speed was also extremely fast, and the saber in his hand was lifted almost at the same time.

The crisp beating sound resounded in the empty cell, Ye Chen felt the aftershock of the sword in his hand, looked up with lingering fear, his eyes changed instantly when he saw the person, and he said in great surprise: "Nan Xu!"

Ye Chen immediately ran over, ready to reach out to help the person up, but after seeing him approaching, Ming Xu moved a little subconsciously, avoiding the person's hand.

This movement was very small, but the chain was slender, and it made a sound when it moved slightly, making it difficult for people to ignore it.

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, his body was a little stiff, and his outstretched hand neither moved forward nor retracted.

"I'm sorry..." Ye Chen took a deep breath, looked at the person in front of him and said seriously: "But, shall we go first? Leave here first, just leave here."

Ye Chen wanted to persuade him a few more words, but Ming Xu continued, "Sorry."

What Zhou Wan did should have nothing to do with Ye Chen, he didn't know about it, otherwise there was no need to do so much, he always wanted to help himself, the evasion just now was completely subconscious.

Ye Chen unconsciously clenched his hands and said word by word: "You don't need to apologize, no."

Then without saying anything more, he raised his sword and split the chain, helped him up and said, "Go quickly."

After arriving outside the cell, Ming Xu found that all of Xuangu's attendants had passed out on the ground, and there were signs of fighting around, but most of them seemed to have fallen unconscious on the ground.

"It's like snow," Ye Chen explained: "She poisoned the circulating water source of Xuangu, and she fell into a coma for a part of it. smoothly."

The stronger the martial arts, the more limited the effect of poison on them is, and if they are directly poisoned in circulating water, the poison is easily diluted and the effect is not good. Chu Ruxue's poison is already very powerful at this level.

And I have to say that the journey went too smoothly, without Elder Xuan, there seemed to be not many people in Xuangu today, and there was no obstacle encountered along the way.

Ming Xu looked at the unconscious people everywhere, and asked, "When will they wake up?"

"It's okay, as Ruxue said, as long as you get tricked, you won't wake up for a day."

Ye Chen was just about to leave when he finished speaking, when he suddenly found that Ming Xu hadn't moved, he asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"I want to go somewhere."

Ming Xu led Ye Chen quickly to the previous cellar entrance, and opened the door according to memory. The lights in the cellar were faintly revealed. As the outside air flowed in, the candlelight swayed and flickered silently.

Looking at the steps extending down, Ming Xu paused and did not go down immediately.

Ye Chen didn't think much about it, he just thought that Ming Xu was looking for something, and the situation below was unknown, so he walked down first because he was afraid of danger.

Ming Xu hurriedly followed, walking down the stairs, each step was exactly the same as the steps in memory.

Ming Xu's heart beats fast and slow, anxiety and fear appear at the same time, but she still insists on walking.

Ye Chen went to the bottom first, glanced casually, then turned around and said, "There's nothing here."

nothing?

Ming Xu sped up and walked into the cellar to take a look──
There is nothing, there is nothing...

Ye Chen observed again, and said while watching: "There seems to be some blood here, it seems to be dripping from a high place, was there anything hanging here at first?"

"Nan Xu, what are you looking for?" Ye Chen asked, but when he turned around, he saw the red eyes of the person in front of him, as if he was about to cry.

"Nan Xu?" Ye Chen had never seen him like this before, and he was a little anxious, "What's wrong? Is it something important? Can't find it? It's okay, let's look for it again."

"No, it's nothing," Ming Xu grabbed Ye Chen, who was a little flustered, "Let's go, let's go."

No more, no need to look any further.

"Are you sure you don't want to look any further?" Ye Chen looked left and right again, "The candles will never go out, this cellar must be bigger than this, or lead somewhere, there seems to be wind over there."

Ming Xu didn't want to say much, and wanted to pull people away, but took a look at the place Ye Chen pointed, and a vague voice suddenly appeared in his mind, familiar and strange, distant and approaching.

Ming Xu had heard this strange sound many times, but he was the only one who could hear it. It was like some kind of telepathy.

This cellar is connected to the forbidden area?
"It's there, there is a way," Ye Chen also found the hidden passage at this time, and asked, "Shall we go and have a look?"

The voice kept ringing in his mind, this time it was clearer than ever, but Ming Xu still couldn't hear the content clearly. He could only feel the urgent begging in the voice, repeated over and over again.

Ming Xu hesitated for a moment, then said slowly: "You wait here for a while, I'll go take a look," after thinking for a while, he added, "If I don't come back after half a stick of incense, you leave."
