A knife in love

Chapter 1749

After Qi Jiu entered the cave, his head just retracted when his feet stepped on the ground.Qi Jiu's heart trembled, thinking to himself that he thought this was a secret passage, and when he entered the cave, he thought that the secret passage was deep and far away, so he supported the cave wall with both hands, for fear that he would fall down and suffer serious injuries.But he never expected that this secret path is so shallow, it is only as tall as his body.In this way, the so-called "secret passage" is at best a stone pit, and it will not be an escape route at all.Thinking of this, Qi Jiu's heart sank immediately, feeling extremely depressed.

Qi Jiu stood in the cave for a while, and was about to climb out of the cave, but stopped again.He thought to himself, maybe those skeletons on the stone platform chiseled the stone steps to this platform that day, trying to dig a passage on the stone platform.It's just that they were exhausted and only dug as deep as one person, and then died one after another due to fatigue or illness.I'd like to see how the passage is dug. If I can continue to dig, maybe I can find a way to escape.

Qi Jiu made up his mind, and stretched down the fire folder in his left hand.At this moment, he saw the flame of Huozhezi shaking towards him again, almost burning the clothes in his lower abdomen.Qi Jiu's heart trembled, and he hurriedly removed the fire pocket, only then did he realize that the lower half of the cave turned out to be a cave entrance.It's just that the entrance of this cave is only about half a person's height, and the top only reaches his waist, so after he slipped into the cave, he stepped on the bottom of the cave with both feet, but he didn't realize that the real secret passage was in front of him.

Surprised and delighted, Qi Jiu hurriedly squatted down, only to feel a gust of wind blowing on her face, which was very cool and comfortable.He stretched the torch forward, and in front of him was a round stone cave half as tall as a person.The walls of the cave are full of traces of cutting with knives and axes. It is obvious that this cave was dug out by someone.

Qi Jiu squatted at the entrance of the cave, wondering and wondering.He thought to himself, this big cave in the isolated peak was created by heaven and earth, and it is definitely beyond the reach of human beings, but those stone steps on the cave wall were carved out step by step by someone.But the cave in front of him was not born naturally, it was obviously dug out on purpose.However, manpower is limited after all, how easy is it to dig a passage in the rock?Where did these people come from, and why did they expend so much effort to dig out this secret passage, as well as the stone steps on the wall of the big cave outside?

The more Qi Jiu thought about it, the more frightened he became. Just as he was thinking about it, another gust of cool wind blew out of the cave.The flame of Huozhezi was blown by the cool wind, making Qi Jiu's heart tremble.In an instant, he had made up his mind, and thought to himself that instead of hesitating here, he might as well go into the cave to have a look.Qi Jiu made up her mind, and held the torch in her left hand, squatted down, and walked forward step by step carefully.

This cave is only about half a person tall, and Qi Jiu squatted on the ground to walk, which can be said to be extremely strenuous.As he walked, he couldn't stop looking at the left and right cave walls, only to see that the cave walls were full of chiseling marks, and many places were uneven.Qi Jiu thought to himself, the person who dug this cave is not only highly skilled, but also has a tenacious temperament. Otherwise, if he digs a cave in the rocks day after day, I am afraid that the cave has not been dug through. crazy.

Qi Jiu walked five or six feet forward, only to feel severe pain in his waist, weakness in his knees, and extreme discomfort all over his body. He could only endure it forcefully and move forward bit by bit.At this moment, the flames of the torch in his hand suddenly exploded, instantly illuminating the surrounding area.But Qi Jiu's heart trembled, knowing that the fire pocket was about to burn out, so he hurriedly put the fire pocket back in front of him, and blew out the flame in one breath.The surroundings immediately fell into dead silence, and Qi Jiu was enveloped in boundless darkness.He only felt a heart pounding, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.Qi Jiu thought to himself, Huozhezi won't last long now, and he doesn't know where this cave leads.If there is no fire book to illuminate, every step will hide a great crisis.It's better to get out first, discuss with Brother Li and Miss Murong, and then enter this cave to find a way to escape.

Qi Jiu made up his mind and slowly backed away.At this time, there was no pain anywhere in his body, and the darkness around him made him feel terrified, as if something in the opposite darkness was slowly following him.The more he thought about it, the more terrified he became, ignoring the pain in his body, his feet retreated faster and faster, his right hand clenched the handle of the knife tightly, to guard against the enemy's sneak attack.

After a while, Qi Jiu's vest suddenly hit the cave wall.He was startled, and vaguely felt that there seemed to be light penetrating from the top of his head.Qi Jiu hurriedly looked up.I saw mottled light and shadow not far above the head, which turned out to have retreated to the entrance of the cave.Only then did Qi Jiu feel relieved, stood up hastily, and was about to push the skeleton on top of his head aside when he heard Li Qiufeng speak, so he answered.Li Qiufeng and the others turned pale with shock, and retreated one after another.When Li Qiufeng asked him if he was Qi Jiu, Qi Jiu agreed, and then he grasped the edges of both ends of the hole with both hands, and with a strong push, his body jumped out of the hole and landed firmly on the stone platform .

It's just that Qi Jiu didn't expect that he was slapped twice by Wang Xiaoyu just after he got out of the cave.He was at a loss, but he didn't want to quarrel with Wang Xiaoyu, so he could only hold back the pain on his face, and told what he saw in the cave just now.

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan became more startled the more they listened. Even Wang Xiaoyu stopped crying and listened to Qi Jiu with wide eyes.After Qi Jiu finished speaking, Wang Xiaoyu was still unsatisfied, and asked, "What happened next?"

Qi Jiudao: "Later, I crawled out of the cave. It's just that I don't know where I offended Miss Wang and made her angry, so I'm panicked."

Wang Xiaoyu blushed, then widened his eyes, and said, "You blame me for beating you?"

After she finished speaking, a pair of wonderful eyes stared at Qi Jiu.Seeing her like this, Qi Jiu didn't have the slightest anger in his heart, but a little sweetness instead.But before he could speak, Wang Xiaoyu raised his right hand, and with a "slap", he slapped himself, and said, "I made myself an apology to you by slapping myself."

Qi Jiu didn't expect Wang Xiaoyu to do this, he was shocked, and with a sway, he was already in front of Wang Xiaoyu.At this moment, Wang Xiaoyu was about to slap herself again, when Qi Jiu stretched out her right hand in a hurry, firmly grasped Wang Xiaoyu's right wrist, and said, "I definitely don't mean to blame Miss Wang at all. The girl must not be so self-harming!"

Qi Jiu grabbed Wang Xiaoyu's wrist, she was shocked and ashamed, but she liked it a little.It's just that she tried hard to withdraw her right hand, but she didn't expect that Qi Jiu was so strong that Wang Xiaoyu couldn't withdraw her right hand at all.Afraid that Murong Danyan and Li Qiufeng would make fun of her, she stamped her feet and said, "You kid is so unreasonable! How dare you grab my wrist, what is this?!"

Qi Jiuxin was taken aback, and only then remembered that he had held Wang Xiaoyu's right hand in a hurry, which was a bit abrupt.So Qi Jiu hurriedly let go of her right hand, took two steps back, and said with an embarrassed expression: "I didn't mean to offend, please don't blame Miss Wang."
