After wearing a sick and weak cannon fodder as a prince

Qingyu continued: "Later, the concubine Xiang came up with an idea to Her Majesty to solve the famine in the Southwest. Your Majesty used to love Her Majesty very much, and he was willing to do anything for Her Majesty."

When she said this, she suddenly stopped and looked at Qin Xuechuan.

Qin Xuechuan's expression was complicated at the moment, he was walking slowly behind...

Willing to do anything?Is it really?If that's true...then why would the emperor do such a thing to her son?Can such a person who uses children as pawns really have sincerity?

How Qin Xuechuan got a point in the palace did not see the emperor's affection at every moment, he only loved his own power.Even when Qin Zhen died, he didn't seem to be so sad... The fact that he did so absolutely about Concubine Shu is enough to show his ruthlessness.

Qin Xuechuan walked with Herring for a long time, but both of them were about to reach the top of the mountain, and they still didn't see any buildings.Logically speaking, an alchemist should live in a house if he lives in seclusion. Even if the hermit is poor and refuses to build a house, there must be a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

Why did they walk all the way without seeing a single person?

It is said that there are the most snakes and insects here, and he and Herring have not seen even a single poisonous insect, let alone a snake.

Could it be that there are hermits in Lushan really just folk rumors?

At this moment, Qin Xuechuan reached out his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead. Seeing this, Herring quickly took out a handkerchief from his sleeve: "Your Highness, let the servants come!"

Qin Xuechuan stopped the movements in his hands at this moment and looked at Herring, he now felt that Herring could be trusted.

If the story she tells is true...

He didn't want to be suspicious, after all, the days of doubting and doubting like this were too sad, why didn't he want to have someone he could trust by his side.

After wiping the sweat off Qin Xuechuan's head, Herring said: "Your Highness, you must be tired after walking for so long, how about I let this servant help you to a cool place to rest?"

Qin Xuechuan froze for a moment after hearing what he said, and then he said: "That's fine."

At this moment, Herring hurriedly stepped forward to help him go forward, and at this moment, Qin Xuechuan suddenly found a very lush tree on the top of the cliff.The roots of the tree protruded from the rocks, clinging to the cliff face like a huge monster.

Seeing this, he hurriedly walked over there, and Herring hurriedly followed, she worriedly said: "Your Highness, there is a cliff over there, you have to be careful."

Qin Xuechuan said: "It's okay."

After speaking, he walked to the big tree, which was a huge plane tree.The sycamore tree is full of branches. This sycamore tree grows so big, at least it has been here for a hundred years, right?

Qin Xuechuan recalled that the original owner loved vocal music the most, and the sound of the qin repaired by the hundred-year-old Wutong tree is very beautiful, but it's a pity...

Qin Xuechuan was sitting and resting under the sycamore tree at this time. There is an ancient saying: Phoenix perches on the sycamore tree.The sycamore tree is also a tree that fulfills love. Is this similar to Da Chu's superstitious belief in the phoenix?

When Qin Xuechuan thought of this, he suddenly leaned back, and when his hand fell to the ground, he suddenly felt that he was holding down something movable.

Just when he was wondering, he suddenly saw a door-like shape cracked beside the stone wall beside the sycamore tree. Behind him, the door opened from bottom to top.

Qin Xuechuan looked at the mountain gate and opened his eyes wide in surprise: "..."

***

It turns out that there are really hermits in Lushan?Moreover, for such an exquisite mechanism that is hard to be discovered, the person who built it must have some extraordinary skills.

Herring chased after her at this moment, and when she saw the cave, she also stood there dumbfounded.

Qin Xuechuan was stunned for a moment, then he quickly got up and said, "Follow me in."

Herring quickly regained consciousness and replied: "Yes, this servant obeys!" After finishing speaking, she and Qin Xuechuan entered the cave.

And when the two of them entered, the stone gate suddenly fell heavily.

Qin Xuechuan was startled by that burst of sound, he turned his head quickly, but now he couldn't see anything.It was pitch black in the cave...

Seeing this, Qin Xuechuan quickly took out a fire pocket from his clothes, took off the bamboo cap on it, and blew on it twice.There was finally a glimmer of light in the cave at this moment.

Just when he was about to go there, Herring suddenly stopped him and said: "Your Highness, there may be danger ahead, why don't you ask your slaves to go and find the way for Your Highness?"

Qin Xuechuan paused, and when he came back to his senses, Herring had already walked in front of him.

Herring took the fire folder in his hand, and then explored the way ahead.Although the cave is dark, the strange thing is that it is not damp at all. Logically speaking, the cave should be wet in a place like this where overgrown with weeds.

Qin Xuechuan felt that if he went further, there might be something hidden in the sky.

***

Sure enough, when they were almost halfway there, they suddenly found that the cave was much more spacious.And there seems to be a faint light ahead.

The farther they go, the brighter the light becomes.

Herring put away the fire folder at this moment and handed it to Qin Xuechuan: "Your Highness, there seems to be candlelight ahead."

Qin Xuechuan nodded: "I saw it. Since there is fire, it means there must be someone here. You are following me to look ahead."

After hearing this, Qing Yu quickly replied: "Yes, this servant obeys!"

After speaking, Qin Xuechuan walked in front of her.But at this moment, he suddenly heard a strange rustling sound coming from the cave.

Qin Xuechuan's hearing ability was much better than that of ordinary people. He suddenly stopped when he heard this sound, then turned his head and asked Herring behind him, "Did you hear any strange sound?"

At this moment, Qing Yu blinked her eyes blankly, and she reported truthfully: "Your Highness, I didn't hear anything."

Qin Xuechuan frowned after hearing her answer.

What's going on... There should be other things here, and the sound should not be like a person, but rather like the sound of something crawling.

At this moment, Qin Xuechuan slowed down his pace and walked forward slowly. After walking a few steps, he came across a corner. There were countless lamps lit beside the corner. About every seven or eight steps, a lamp was chiseled into the stone wall. On the road ahead, it looks very bright.

He squinted his eyes and looked up, Qin Xuechuan found that as long as he walked a little further, he could see the exit.

And at this moment, he heard that strange sound again, he stopped and listened quietly, the sound seemed to come from above the stone wall...

At this moment, Qin Xuechuan looked up with a pale face, and the moment he raised his eyes, he suddenly pulled Herring to his side: "Be careful——"

As soon as the words were finished, a striped poisonous snake with a triangular head fell down from the stone wall.

Herring was a little dazed with fright after seeing the snake fall to where she was standing just now, Qin Xuechuan grabbed her sleeve and backed away.

At this moment, his expression was solemn: "This snake is definitely not the only one here, let's get out quickly!"

Herring came back to her senses, she nodded and said: "Yes...Your Highness, Your Highness should let the slaves stand by your side."

Hearing her words, Qin Xuechuan suddenly felt angry: "How can I let a woman like you do such a thing?"

After hearing this, Herring suddenly froze for a moment...

So... isn't she a lowly slave in Qin Xuechuan's eyes?Over the years, she has long been accustomed to regard herself as the prince's servant, willingly serving the prince for the rest of her life, but when Qin Xuechuan said those words just now, her eyes suddenly turned slightly red.

Perhaps Qin Xuechuan said this sentence unintentionally, but in her heart it was already the most rare sentence in this life.

Just as Qin Xuechuan and Herring were retreating, he suddenly heard another very noisy sound.

He looked back at this moment, and the scene in the cave at this moment almost made him stop breathing in shock.Because behind him there are countless entangled poisonous snakes with patterns and spots on their bodies, making a noise and crawling towards him.

At this moment, Qin Xuechuan covered his mouth to resist the urge to vomit.

Seeing this, Herring quickly stood in front of Qin Xuechuan, picked up the scattered stones in the cave, and threw them at the snakes.

Qin Xuechuan said: "Herring, be careful."

After hearing this, Herring smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

"Next!" Qin Xuechuan handed the dagger hidden in his sleeve to Qingyu, and Qingyu took the sharp and gleaming dagger and chopped off the heads of the crawling snakes.

Her eyes at this moment seem to be a little different from just now.Qin Xuechuan has always looked at her submissively, but only now did he realize that the maid beside him could be so skilled.

Qin Xuechuan can probably understand why Xiang Muling chose this person at a glance back then to bring her back to the palace.

When Herring finished handling the snakes in front, she breathed a sigh of relief and planned to return to Qin Xuechuan.But when she turned her head, she suddenly saw a black and white poisonous snake staring at Qin Xuechuan behind him.

Herring didn't have time to explain at this moment, she rushed up quickly: "Your Highness, be careful!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she threw Qin Xuechuan down, and the snake bit her hand tightly.Herring screamed in pain at this moment, she picked up the dagger Qin Xuechuan gave her, and then chopped off the snake's head.But the snake head was still conscious, and was still biting her hand tightly at this moment.

Herring stood up and bit her lip at this moment, she slammed her hand to the ground, and the snake's head was smashed into pieces.

Qin Xuechuan was a little dumbfounded at this moment... How could she be so cruel to herself?

Herring knelt in front of Qin Xuechuan at this moment: "Your Highness, please forgive me for the crime of disrespect just now."

Qin Xuechuan was stunned for a moment, and he hurried to help Herring: "Don't talk about that, I saw a snake biting you just now, it's a poisonous snake, are you okay?"

Herring shook his head and smiled, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, slaves are fine."
