Chapter 521:. Tunnel
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation ‘ Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
General Li and his n smashed open the floor tiles, revealing a dark hole General Li was frightened. They did not know such a secret passage led out of the city. The consequences would be unimaginable if the enemy ca and entered the city through the secret passage.
When the three dogs saw that the hole had been smashed open, they jumped down imdiately and barked as they chased on.
“Give the torch.”
Su Qing ordered the soldiers beside her to give her the torch, and she jumped down the tunnel. How could General Li dare to let the young madam take the risk alone? He quickly led his n and jumped down as well.
Darkness was not a problem for dogs. They ran like they were flying, barking as they ran.
Su Qing was chasing after them. Her God of War ability did not affect her vision in the dark. However, General Li and the others were not able to do so. The light from the torch was as weak as the light of a firefly in the dark tunnel. They were soon left behind.
After running for a long ti, the tunnel had yet to reach its end. Su Qing calculated the distance and should have already run out of the city. It seed that her previous guess was wrong. She thought Xiaoying had not been taken out of the city and was guarding the gate. Xiaoying had already been taken out of the city.
This mistake was fatal. It had been delayed too long. What was most frightening was that the other party had reinforcents. They had already taken away Xiaoying!
The more Su Qing chased after her, the more anxious she beca. She wished she could grow wings and fly to Xiaoying’s side. Xiaoying was afraid of the dark. She couldn’t even see her fingers in this tunnel. How scared would she be here?
Woof woof woof…
The dogs were barking in front, and the tunnel echoed. Su Qing sped up and ran over. She found herself standing in a grave. She held the torch and shone it around the wall. She found the tomb door and the switch. She pressed the switch, and the tomb door opened.
The three dogs took the lead and rushed out again. Su Qing walked out of the tomb and held the torch to shine around. She found that she had already arrived at the border between Mo City and the Northern Barbarians.
She continued to run with the three dogs. The snow on the northern side was heavy, and the three search dogs quickly lost direction. They stood there and barked at Su Qing.
Su Qing held the torch and squatted on the ground to look at the footprints This was a graveyard that was usually uninhabited. Although it was snowing, it would not fill up all the footprints imdiately.
Soon, she found the footprints. She held the torch and followed the footprints until she found another footprint in front of the tomb.
Su Qing went to move the tombstone, and another tunnel was revealed. The three rescue dogs sniffed at the tunnel entrance and beca excited. They barked at Su Qing and jumped into the tunnel.
Su Qing jumped down and ordered Xiao Qi to see where they were.
“Master, we are now on the road to the Northern Barbarians.”
Xiao Qi said to Su Qing after looking at the map on the system. At the sa ti, it was already looking for heat energy without its master’s instructions.
Su Qing’s heart skipped a beat when she heard it was the way to the Northern Barbarians. ‘Could it be that Qiu Yongkang was still alive? He even discovered the tunnel leading to Mo City?’
This could explain why he dared to enter Mo City. It was because no one would know that he had entered the city. That was why he was so bold.
After following the three dogs for a long distance, they saw a landslide in front of them. The ground was full of rocks and soil. It was obvious that it had been blown up and was completely blocked.
There was another tunnel on the left, but where did it lead? The three dogs rushed into the tunnel, and Su Qing followed closely behind.
The tunnel here was not so easy to walk through. It was very low, and Su Qing had to bend down to walk. The air was thin, and the wind was weak. The fla of the torch stopped dancing.
When Su Qing exited the tunnel, a huge cave appeared before her. It was more than two ters tall and about 20 square ters. There were many large black wooden boxes. There were more than ten of them, and they were big enough to fit a person.
However, if a person were to be placed in this box, they would not be able to survive. There was no place for ventilation at all, and they would suffocate to death.
Su Qing clenched his fists tightly. ‘Could it be…Xiaoying was already dead?’ Woof woof woof…
Just as Su Qing was about to open all the boxes to see if Xiaoying was inside, three search dogs barked from the cave on the left. Su Qing ran in quickly.
There was a pine oil torch inside. Su Qing did not bring this torch, but soone had already inserted it into the rock wall to light up the cave. Su Qing could see the situation inside the cave under the jumping flas.
This was a room. There was no lack of tables, chairs, benches, and beds They were all the best furniture. Facing the hole was a large mahogany bed with carved patterns. The bed curtain was lowered, and the situation inside could not be seen clearly. The three dogs were barking at the bed.
Su Qing suppressed her pounding heart and quickly walked to the bed. She reached out and lifted the bed curtain. A woman was sleeping soundly on the bed. It was Xiaoying, whom Su Qing had been searching for.
“Xiaoying, Xiaoying?”
Su Qing called out to her happily, but Xiaoying did not react. She had been drugged. Su Qing quickly fed her the antidote. Xiaoying woke up slowly after eating the antidote. She felt that she was leaning against soone’s arms She pushed Su Qing away as if she had installed a spring. She shrank into the bed and protected her body with both hands. She closed her eyes and shouted, “Don’t touch , don’t touch , let go… Let go…”
She looked terrified. It was a complete reaction of fear. Her body was trembling, and her voice was trembling.
Seeing Xiaoying like this, Su Qing’s heart ached. She didn’t dare to grab her again rashly. She could only comfort her first and let Xiaoying know that she was here,”
“Xiaoying, it’s . Sister-in-law is here to save you.”
“Sister-in-law? Sister-in-law…”
Xiaoying only dared to open her eyes when she heard Su Qing’s voice. She saw that it was indeed her sister-in-law sitting by the bed. She cried and threw herself into Su Qing’s arms like a child.
“Don’t cry, it’s okay…”
Seeing Xiaoying crying so sadly, Su Qing’s heart ached. She hugged Xiaoying tightly and comforted her softly.
Xiaoying cried so hard that she almost fainted. Su Qing comforted her, and she recovered from the shock. She burped as she cried. Her big, clear eyes were filled with tears. She hurriedly looked down at her clothes. Seeing that her clothes were intact, she was still unsure if she had been assaulted. She asked Su Qing uneasily,
“Sister-in-law, did I…”
-No, your Chastity Sand is still there.” Su Qing shook her head. She was also worried about this and had already prepared for the worst. However, she was relieved when she saw that the chastity sand on Xiaoying’s arm was still there. “Sob… Sister-in-law, the one who captured , was Qiu Yongkang. He forced to marry him and make spend the rest of my life with him…” After Xiaoying confird that she had not been violated, she cried and told Su Qing about her experience.
She had co out of the governnt office in the morning to say goodbye to Jiang Yuyan and give her an embroidered purse, a new dress, and a jewelry box. She would marry Tartan in the future, and this separation might be the last ti they would see each other. She couldn’t even send Jiang Yuyan off when she got married, so Xiaoying gave Jiang Yuyan her wedding gift in advance It was a gold hairpin inlaid with a ruby. It was given to her by her elder brother, but she couldn’t bear to wear it. She ca to give it to Jiang Yuyan this ti, but sothing happened on the way to Jiang Yuyan’s house..
