Aggrieved Fish Sprite

The tunnel was pitch-black and not ventilated.

If it weren't for a martial arts master who has refined his internal strength and has a long breath, he probably wouldn't be able to crawl out of here alive.

That’s right, it’s just climbing—the height of the passage is too low, and except for the small children, adults can only crawl forward.

Meng Qi naturally considered this possibility. When he strengthened (rebuilt) the secret passage, he not only kept the curved part, but also built two more.This makes the passage have two big bends in a very short distance, and people are not snakes, so there is no way to twist their bodies like that.

In addition, the passage also goes up and down, with steps and small steep slopes.

Mo Li stepped on Meng Qi's clothes in front of him, staggered forward, but managed to stabilize in time.

"Doctor, wait a moment."

"..."

Mo Li kept his mouth shut, and he would never speak unless it was absolutely necessary.

I only heard someone say in a soft voice: "It's a bit crowded in front, you have to turn your body sideways to get through, I'll try first."

Mo carp couldn't help but wonder.

The passage was built by Meng Qi himself, but he couldn't get through by himself?What's happening here?

Doctor Mo silently stretched out his hand and squeezed the person in front of him.

This... Not only are the arms thick, but even the waist has bulging flesh.

"itch."

The small slap was quickly slapped down, hitting Mo Li's hand.

There was a snap, very crisp.

This is the sound of meat hitting meat. More precisely, there is always a buffer between fat pier and fat pier. The sound sounds loud, but it doesn't hurt much.

"Sorry, doctor, did I hit you hard?"

It's not good to be a toddler, you can't know how to use your strength.

"Doctor, are you... not happy?"

Meng Qi could guess what Mo Li was upset about.

The form of the young child looks too fragile, unable to resist the danger, even though he is actually a child with martial arts and is not a child with no power, he still feels uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

Maybe it's because Meng Qi lived as a gerbil when he didn't turn into a human, so he didn't think it would be a child.The chubby gerbils are bullied wherever they go. There are eagles in the sky and foxes on the ground. Bigger animals treat them as delicacies, and they look much better as humans.

Meng Qi had already thought of the Lingquan Pool in Qimao Mountain.

Lingquantan is like the stone cave of Longshou Peak in Shangyun Mountain, sheltering the newborn dragon veins.

The difference is that Taijing Longmai wanted to run out after a little consciousness, while Qimaoshan Dragonmai, as a fish, couldn't go ashore, and couldn't go to places without water at all, so he could only stay in the pool obediently.

Later, when it "grew up", due to water restrictions, the ink carp would not have the idea of ​​wandering around in its original form.

Various factors have contributed to Mo Li's calm temperament, and his thoughts are not so out of bounds. Becoming a child may be a very outrageous behavior, and it also makes Mo Li feel extremely uncomfortable.

"No, you go."

Seeing Meng Qi standing still, Mo Li could only urge him vaguely.

"There is a slope in the back, it is very steep, you may roll down, you hold my hand."

"..."

In fact, the reason for Mo Li's uneasiness was not what Meng Qi thought at all, these few days was when his feelings for Meng Qi became complicated, and he had some strange thoughts, but it was not clear.

It's as if young men and women meet each other on the street, and in the sunny spring scenery, they pass by each other and look back frequently, reluctant to part.

Just so intently, wanting to catch up, wanting to get closer, suddenly—the person you like turns into a fat baby right in front of your eyes.

Isn't that worth being angry about?

Seeing the person in front trying hard to squeeze through the narrow passage, and finally had to turn his body sideways, Mo Li suddenly lost his temper. He felt that if he stretched out a foot and kicked, Meng Qi would probably just roll down .

Of course the ink carp wouldn't do that, but that didn't stop him from thinking.

Gululu rolled down, and then became ashamed...

Fat dolls are better than gerbils, gerbils are too small, they don't know where they will roll, and they have to search for a long time in the passage.

Mo Li looked at Meng Qi struggling to move forward, and suddenly his heart moved, Meng Qi must have walked through this passage a few times!It's not normal to be so narrow. Could it be built in the shape of a gerbil?As long as the gerbils are happy rolling?

The more Mo Carp thought about it, the more it made sense.

Isn't this winding passage going left and right, up and down, a place that gerbils find interesting?

"...We have been delayed for a long time." Mo Li deliberately lowered his voice.

However, it didn't sound rough, on the contrary, it sounded like he was losing his temper because he spit out too much air.

Not only Meng Qi, but even Mo Li was stunned, and quickly changed his voice back.

"If Lu Zhang dies, it's all your fault for being too fat."

"Lu Zhang didn't die that easily." Meng Qi said sullenly.

The voices of the two milk dolls just started arguing with each other in the passage.

"Since he knows that there will be rebellion, and he has colluded with people in the Jianghu, he will not stay there stupidly, not preparing for anything."

"You mean the imperial guards?" Mo Li asked back, "They can stop Patriarch Qingwu."

"I can't stop it, but Patriarch Qingwu doesn't kill people whenever he sees them. He has to save some strength. The imperial army and the people who are temporarily transferred are at least [-]. We have already seen Patriarch Qingwu. , you can see what kind of person he is. He is ambitious and capable, but the shortcoming is that he can't hear anyone's words, as long as it is something he believes, it is difficult to change."

Saying this in a soft and serious tone made people laugh, but Mo Li didn't care to laugh, and asked with a frown, "Because of this, isn't Lu Zhang more dangerous? If you want to rebel, you have to kill the emperor first."

"The doctor doesn't know something."

Meng Qi almost said that "the doctor has never rebelled, and he has never thought about how to rebel".

"Killing Lu Zhang is not the most important thing. Patriarch Qingwu must first determine someone to be his puppet, that is, the second prince. If the second prince dies, he needs to find a suitable candidate. He is not Lu Zhang, he has no The military power is not the civil servants and generals of the imperial court, even if he wants to claim the emperor in vain, he will not be able to succeed."

Meng Qi turned to Mo Li and said, "Scholars are very strange existences. They always think that people who don't read in the world are not worthy of being an official, and naturally they can't rule the world. Even if someone leads an army and conquers the world, it still depends on scholars to govern. The country. They may be able to succumb to the butcher's knife of the army, or they may bend their waists for money and beauty, but it is absolutely impossible for them to kneel down to a river and lake!"

What Patriarch Qingwu needed was a stable country, a court that could take advantage of major civil engineering repairs, not a world that was feared and turbulent after being killed by him.

"So Lu Zhang can always wait until we rescue him." Meng Qi was a bit reluctant when he said this

He didn't kill Lu Zhang, he was already looking at the face of the people in Taijing, who is willing to save him!

The fat baby walked ahead angrily.

Ink Carp: "..."

Still want to kick.

Is it true that after the appearance becomes smaller, the personality will also be affected?

The ink carp backed away quietly, in case he couldn't help but take action.

At the end of the steep slope, there were a few more bends, and the passage began to turn upwards. The ink carp heard the faint sound of water flowing through the rocks and soil layers.

"Coming!"

Meng Qi said as he walked, "There are underground water veins nearby, so the secret path is relatively curved, and many places have to be avoided."

It turned out that it wasn't for the fun of the gerbils, Mo Li felt a little guilty.

The steps in the secret passage are very narrow, and many of them are dilapidated, which is just right for the children's feet to step on.

After all, they are not real children, they won't be able to walk without walking, and they don't have to struggle to climb up and down the steps. Lightness skills can still be used. Can be faster.

As the passage gradually approached the ground, the keen hearing of martial arts masters came into play.

The panicked murmurs of the palace people and the running sounds of the imperial guards were all heard clearly.

"Ok?"

Meng Qi frowned.

He didn't speak, it was already very close to the ground, there was no guarantee that it would not be noticed.

Mo Li cast a puzzled look at him, no matter how dark the surrounding area was, it would have no effect on them.

Meng Qi turned his head to look at Mo Li, his expression was a little embarrassed, he said through voice transmission, "That dry well has been filled."

"..."

As the dragon vein of Taijing, he has a clear picture of the situation at the bottom of Shangyun Mountain, and although it is also affected by the dragon veins outside, he only knows a general idea without specifically using spiritual energy to investigate.

For example, the channel did not collapse, nor was it flooded, etc.

In order to prevent people from discovering the exit and entrance of the secret passage, there were boulders blocking it. For Meng Qi, this is not a problem, just move it away.But now there are not only stones in the well, but the walls of the well are filled with gravel and mud.

"No way?" Mo Li also used sound transmission to enter the code.

The voice heard in my head and ears was still soft and soft, as if someone whispered close to my ear.

The ink carp's ears trembled slightly, and the auricles were completely red.

Meng Qi moved next to Mo Li, he didn't intend to take advantage of it at all, and the fat baby didn't have any advantage to take advantage of. In fact, when he saw the Qimao Mountain dragon veins that were as white and fat as himself, Meng Qi suddenly felt that conjectures come true.You can't have two gerbils in a warm sandpit, but you can also hug a soft doll and bask in the sun.

You can do nothing and just sleep lazily.

The arms are soft, the belly is soft, but the legs are too short.

Meng Qi looked down at himself, and compared with the ink carp, he found that he was still rounder.

Forget it, then he will suffer a bit and let the ink carp sleep on him.

Meng Qi pinched the flesh on his body and nodded in satisfaction.

"What are you doing?" Mo Li was puzzled.

"...preparing to break through the secret passage." Meng Qi looked solemn.

Mo Li believed it was true, and asked, "Break it open by force? Will it attract too much attention?"

"It's okay, it's best to attract Patriarch Qingwu, let's take out the clothes first, so that we won't have time to go out later."

Meng Qi's words touched Mo Li's heart, he didn't want to face the ancestor Qingwu with his current appearance, and he couldn't change and dress in full view, so it's better to prepare in advance.

However, the plan couldn't keep up with the change, and the sound of someone digging suddenly came from above the secret passage.

"Bury it a little deeper. Now that the whole palace is being searched, the imperial guards will dig up any suspicious places. If you don't hide it more tightly, this thing will not be kept. It's a small matter for your life and my life, but it's a big matter for failing the prince."

The speaker's voice was very thin, and he should be a servant.

Mo Li thought to himself, isn't it the second prince? Why did he suddenly become the prince.

In addition to the sound of shoveling the soil, it seemed that someone was crying.

"Okay, why are you crying! This is fate!" the lead servant cursed in a low voice.

The choking sound not only didn't stop, but got louder.

"I heard that dozens of people died at the Wanhe Hall. How long can we survive? When His Highness is gone, we still don't know who will be in charge of the East Palace."

"Everyone is the same, dig quickly."

The shovel hit the stone with a thud.

"No, dig this way, time is running out, if you delay, the imperial army will come."

The servants in charge of digging must be very strong. They stood at the bottom of the pit and shoveled down suddenly. Meng Qi's expression changed slightly, and he yelled "no."

As soon as the words fell, a jet of water sprayed out from the bottom of the pit outside.

The servants were shocked, knowing that there was no way to hide their things, they threw away their shovels and fled in a hurry.

The secret path was also affected, the strong water flowed continuously against one side of the stone wall, the ink carp only had time to put on clothes with Meng Qi, and then struck upwards with a palm, and the soil flew high.

The ink carp jumped out, and quickly changed back under the cover of the water flow.

I didn't have time to put down the sleeves and trousers, and it was a little uncomfortable to be strangled inside.

"Brother Meng?"

Meng Qi was also tugging at the sleeves of his jacket, and he pointed in the direction: "Go!"

The spray of water was extremely high, which immediately attracted the attention of the imperial army.

When they arrived at this desolate palace, the water flow had already subsided, and the stagnant water had converged into a small pond.

There was no one around, and there were shovels and other things scattered in the water.

"This, could it be the dragon from yesterday...someone dug out the dragon..."

"Nonsense! Check it out!"
