Li Ci lay on the ground, closed his eyes after drinking the water, and waited for his strength to gradually recover.He felt that the little baby was watching him all the time, and his body exuded uneasiness and vigilance.

After regaining some strength, Li Ci said, "Zhao Rui, Zhao Chuang is still alive, I'm here to save you."

Li Ci felt Xiaowawa's surprise for a moment, but Xiaowawa didn't completely let down his vigilance.

The strength of Li Ci's legs was the first to recover. The tendons in his hands had been severed by Li Yin, and the blood had dried up. Now his hands have no strength at all.With the strength of his legs, he moved his body back a little, and then sat up against the wall.Zhao Rui was still squatting not far away, staring at him.

"Rui Baoer, come here." Li Ci said.

The little baby hesitated for a moment, then stood up, moved over, and squatted down beside him again.Li Ci leaned over and whispered in his ear: "Help me take off my shoes, there is a pill in the gap on the left side of my right shoe, take it off, and put it in my mouth."

The little doll complied.

Li Ci took a deep breath, his body seemed to be wrapped in a burst of warmth, and the pain in his arm also eased.This period of time lasted for about a quarter of an hour, and after a quarter of an hour, his face looked better and most of his strength recovered.The little baby has changed from squatting to sitting beside him.

"How long have you been locked up here?" Li Ci asked.

"One day and one night." The little baby said.

Li Ci turned his head and looked at the small figure. Such a small child was kept in such a dark place for a day and a night, and suddenly felt an indescribable distress.

"Are you afraid?" Li Ci asked.

The little baby hesitated and shook his head: "Close your eyes and you won't be afraid."

There was a 'goo' sound in the little baby's stomach.

"Haven't you eaten?" Li Ci asked.

"Well, I'm afraid it's poisonous." The little baby said.

Li Ci suddenly thought that many years ago, when he was the same size, he was deliberately locked up in the dark palace by his father, emperor and concubine, and he was also so careful, not daring to sleep or eat.Trying to suppress the fear, barely cheering up, waiting for the hope that I don't know when it will appear.

"Bring over the cakes on the table." Li Ci said.

The little baby stood up, brought a plate over, and placed it in front of Li Ci. The scent wafted away, but she couldn't help swallowing.

Li Ci stretched out his hand, grabbed a piece, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, then ate one piece himself, put another piece into the little baby's mouth, and said with a smile in his voice: "Poisoned death is better than starved to death. "

The little baby touched her shriveled belly and began to swallow.

The little doll leaned there quietly when she was full.This is a secret road, and the humidity is heavy, especially at night, the coolness is very obvious.Li Ci stretched out his hand and touched his bald head, it was really cold, the little baby didn't avoid it, but rubbed against his body instead.

"If you're sleepy, sleep for a while." Li Ci said.

After a while, a small snoring sound came from beside him.Zhao Rui had indeed stretched to the limit, staying here alone, his nerves were tense, now he relaxed a little, and fell asleep.Babies sleep well.It's just that he didn't sleep soundly, and his little brows were also wrinkled.

Li Ci stretched out his hand to protect him in his arms, closed his eyes tightly, but pricked up his ears, listening carefully to the movement outside.It took a long time for Li Ci to distinguish that there were two guards outside.He felt the two men pass the door now and then, and then came to the end of the path.When they reached the door, Li Ci didn't dare to be lucky.

The martial arts of those standing outside were so high that they didn't even have the sound of footsteps. Li Ci could only tell by the sound of trembling air currents.If he is not injured, he can barely deal with one of them.

In hiding like this, his internal strength finally recovered by [-]%.

All in all, it was still Li Yin who underestimated him, thinking that he would become a useless person if the tendons in his hands were disabled.In the three caves of the cunning rabbit, Li Ci dared to go to the banquet alone, so he saved a hand. The pills he hid in his shoes were hidden treasures, which complemented the martial arts he practiced.

The little doll in his arms suddenly twisted uncomfortably, and reached out to grab the corner of his clothes.Li Ci turned his head to look, and the little baby had already opened his eyes, staring at him with a pair of big black eyes.

"Do you really like Daddy?" Xiaowa suddenly said.

Li Ci was stunned for a moment, touched his head and said, "Yes."

"Daddy is so stupid, much more stupid than you." The little baby was a little uneasy.

Li Ci just patted his head and didn't speak any more.

"I don't like you." The little baby continued.

"Hmm." Li Ci said.

The little baby couldn't help but looked up at him.

"You have a lot of blood on your body." The little baby said.

"My hand is broken." Li Ci said.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt now."

The two of them spoke without saying a word.Li Ci's eyes suddenly became sharp, he pushed Zhao Rui lightly, and then put his hands weakly in front of him.The next moment, a white figure suddenly flashed in, picked up Li Ci and went out.All this happened so fast, Zhao Rui was still there in a daze, and there was nothing around him.He stood up quickly, walked to the door, and pulled the door hard, and the door was locked.

Li Ci relaxed all over, and the person still carried him, walked to the end of the secret room, and then pushed open the door.A burst of intense light stimulated him, and he subconsciously closed his eyes.The next moment, he was thrown on a chair, and the white figure disappeared instantly.Li Ci turned his head and saw Qin Wang Li Yin standing by the window.

King Qin turned his head and rubbed his chin, feeling very happy.

"Li Ci, the secret room is warm in winter and cool in summer, suitable for escaping the heat, isn't it much more comfortable than Prince Duan's Mansion?" King Qin said with a smile.

Li Ci sat weakly on the chair, his body was covered with blood, his black hair was also very messy, and he looked extremely embarrassed.He raised his head slightly, and his black hair fell to one side, revealing a blood-stained and pale face.He smiled slightly, that momentum still exists, with a refined temperament: "Thank you, brother."

King Qin couldn't bear him to be like this, and he looked so handsome, so he wanted to ridicule him a few words.But thinking that he has become a prisoner, life and death are in his own hands, the gloom in King Qin's heart dissipated.He walked up to King Duan and scanned him from top to bottom.

"Wei Zhenyuan entangled hundreds of thousands of troops and wanted to attack this king." King Qin poked the wound on King Duan's shoulder blade with his hand, and said with a sneer, "It's ridiculous!"

Li Ci frowned in pain, and looked at King Qin expressionlessly.

The more Li Ci suffered, the happier King Qin became.He couldn't help poking it twice more, and then said slowly: "Brother Ci, your confidant actually wants to disregard your life and death! But you are the younger brother of this king, how can this king disregard your life or death?"

Qin Wang suddenly stretched out his hand and poked in from Li Ci's neckline. When he came out, he already had a jade pendant in his hand. After looking at it for a while, he shook his head again: "This is not good, the jade pendant can't distinguish between life and death. It seems that I have to Take a more credible token from Cidi and let Wei Zhenyuan know that his master is not dead yet, how can he rebel?"

King Qin picked up King Duan's hand, looked at his slender fingers, and said, "Tsk tsk," said, "It's a pity that this finger is gone. Brother Ci, tell me, which one should I use as a token?"

The corner of King Qin's eyes glanced at King Duan's face. His face was still expressionless and frightened. King Qin was a little disappointed and bored. He turned around and left with the jade pendant.

Li Ci was taken back to the secret room by the man in white.

He was thrown in directly, the bones in his body were all twisted, and his fierce gaze swept over the white figure that quickly disappeared.Li Ci's whole body relaxed, and he lay on the ground like that, silently.The little doll squatting in the corner quickly ran up and squatted in front of him, staring straight at him.

Zhao Rui looked at it for a while, and then moved closer: "How are you?"

Seeing that there was no response, Zhao Rui called out again: "Prince Duan, what's wrong with you?"

Li Ci reached out and touched his head, and said with a smile, "Are you worried about me?"

The little baby said with a straight face: "No."

"Are you afraid that I won't come back?" Li Ci asked again.

"Hmm." The little baby said in a muffled voice, "It's so dark."

Li Ci chuckled, he got up, took the little baby's hand, and walked to the corner.

"Don't call me 'Duan Wang'." Li Ci said.

"What's that called?" the little doll asked.

Li Ci thought about it seriously: "...It's better to call it..." Li Ci paused, looked at the little baby's frown, and said, "I can't think of it for the time being, my name is 'Li Ci'."

"Oh, Li Ci, what are you doing?" the little baby asked curiously.He saw Li Ci take out a piece of jade pendant from his bosom, and put it in front of him, holding a small carving knife in his hand, grinding off the powder of the jade pendant.

Li Ci swallowed some powder.

"Have you ever read 36 Strategies?" Li Ci asked.

"I read it when I was four years old." Xiaowa said.

"Crossing the sea, cunning rabbits and three caves, maybe adding bitter tricks." Li Ci only said two words.

The little doll seems to understand but not understand.

"Li Yin's character is too conceited, and he is easy to be arrogant. The worse I am, the easier it is for him to relax his vigilance." Li Ci said, "The two people who were originally in the secret way are now guarding the door of the secret room."

He put the powder in front of the little doll, and whispered: "Would you like to try it?"

The little doll shook her head.

Li Ci sat up cross-legged, put his hands on his lap, and started to get lucky.The little baby also imitated his appearance and sat up cross-legged.The little baby sat for a while, then began to doze off, and then fell asleep.This feeling is much more stable than before.

The little baby didn't wake up until someone patted his face.

"It's time for us to go out." Li Ci whispered, "You lie on my back and remember to hug my neck tightly. Just close your eyes later."

The little baby climbed up obediently, and wrapped his hands around his hands, hugging his neck.Li Ci tore off half of the belt, fixed the little doll on his back, then walked to the door, unlocked the lock, and the figure flashed out.
