"Save people." Chen Baiqi said quietly.

"He is... Young Master Cang Yue?" Si Jiang turned her head and looked at Chen Baiqi with strange and searching eyes.

Knowing full well that he was running on purpose.

Chen Baiqi sighed in his heart and said briefly: "He is not, but he needs to be saved."

As for the "reason" for saving people, she hasn't made it up yet.

They stepped forward and backward on the cold stone floor tiles with crisp echoes. The dark and green stone surface reflected the weak firelight, and there was a feeling that even the air was polluted with filth.

At this time, Ju suddenly took a few steps past everyone and took the lead. He reached the position where the animal skeleton was locked, and lifted up the man's drooping head. There was a clattering sound of the iron chain being dragged, and everyone looked forward to see, from

In appearance, he looks like a barbarian.

His appearance is resolute and deep, with no eyebrows or beard, thick lips and a protruding nose, dark skin, and an outline as carved as stone. His brow bone is decorated with a spiral totem in purple and black. At first glance, he looks about five or six cents taller than a giant.

resemblance.

However, the appearance characteristics of this Beirong people are typical, and nine out of ten of them look exactly the same.

"Ju, are you a relative?" Si Jiang looked around the chained man up and down and said in surprise.

Ju paused, put his head down, and shook his head.

Si Si frowned, pursed his lips and said, "This person...should not be simple. If he is not the person you want to save, why not let him stay here."

Ju looked over sharply.

There was coldness in his eyes.

Si Si, on the other hand, lowered her long eyelashes and avoided his sight.

"I just don't want the girl to fall into unknown danger. This man is just a foreigner, and he is not worthy of the girl taking such a big risk."

Ju's ferocious look just now froze, and he looked at Chen Baiqi slightly hesitantly and at a loss.

It's rare to see Ju with such a "life" expression. Chen Baiqi met his gaze with a slight smile and said, "Ju, you want to save him?"

Ju seemed to be struggling in his heart. He glanced at the foreigner and muttered: "I'll stay."

Brothers Sisi and Sijiang expressed their confusion about this statement.

Chen Baiqi gradually lost his temper.

A child can't help his mother... Well, this seems wrong, but this mood is inexplicably consistent.

Ju sternly explained to Chen Baiqi: "Ju... Ju can replace him. In this way, he can delay some time for the girl to leave... Ju -"

"Huge!" Chen Baiqi shook his head and interrupted him softly but firmly.

He was shocked and looked at Chen Baiqi blankly.

"I will save him. Didn't I say so at the beginning? Have you forgotten?" Chen Baiqi didn't want him to be embarrassed, so he asked him softly.

The huge mandible tightened, the muscles of the brachial arms bulged, and the voice in the throat was difficult to squeeze out: "But the girl is in danger..."

Although he wanted to save the girl, he was not willing to risk the girl's safety.

"Surviving in this world is basically the same as rescuing someone from a difficult situation. What is dangerous and why is it safe?" Chen Baiqi walked up to him with a chuckle, then stood up on tiptoes and patted his drooping head: "

Don't judge my belly with the heart of a villain. Your girl's heart is like an eagle's feet, and she is not afraid of the wind in the cliffs and abyss, or the cold and bright sun."

Ju cooperated with Chen Baiqi's barely standing on tiptoe, and bent down Pangta's body. With such a gentle and slightly accusatory pat from her, he felt as if a heavy stone that had been pressing on his shoulders was shattered, and he suddenly felt relaxed.

stand up.

Ju's idea is very simple, that is, to believe in Chen Baiqi.

She said she was not afraid, so he was not afraid.

Si Si looked at the master and servant in silence. From them, he saw an atmosphere that was hard to penetrate, which was called consideration and trust.

His beautiful and feminine face was silent, but his hands under his sleeves were habitually twisted together.

"Now that it's been decided, it's up to you to save people as you please. Maybe the people in these three prefectures have already discovered the clues. This well is like an ant nest, and they have sent a large number of soldiers to encircle and suppress it." Si Jiang folded his hands, although he didn't He agreed that they wanted to save a strange foreigner, but he knew that he could not convince the strong-minded Chen Baiqi and the stubborn Ju, so he could only twitch the corners of his mouth and make sarcastic remarks.

Chen Bai stood up and smiled at him.

Ju Ze looked at him with his big dull eyes.

Si Jiang stroked his forehead, unable to resist, so he could only surrender silently.

Since he wanted to save someone, the iron chains and shackles on this foreigner had to be untied before he could be put down and taken away.

They took the guard's keys and tried them one by one, but none of them worked. They tried to forcefully remove the thick python-like iron chain, but even the giant "shark choke" was unable to do anything.

Chen Bai sneaked into Mu Mansion for easy access and did not bring the "Qinglong Yanyue Sword" with her. Naturally, it was difficult to take it out directly from the "system package", so she did not have any famous swords or sharp weapons in her hands at the moment.

"This lock is made by Nanliu Shenzi. This lock has six sliders - metal sheets with grooves. Before using the key to open the lock, the slider must be moved into the appropriate position. This lock has a total of four keys. Both are indispensable." Si Si glanced at it and said suddenly.

Everyone immediately looked at him.

"Can you drive it?" Chen Baiqi asked.

Si Si was silent for a moment.

Chen Baiqi's eyes flashed and he said: "If you can, I owe you a favor."

Sisi's amber demonic eyes raised their eyes to look at her, the water was smooth and glowing with a faint blue light. After a while, he said: "Slave needs something."

Chen Baiqi said: "For example..."

Si counted four points: "dagger, iron piece, fine cinnabar, tan copper, black clay..."

Chen Bai raised his eyebrows and looked at Si Jiang: "How many do you have there?"

Si Jiang had been looking at Si Si since he spoke. When he heard Chen Baiqi ask, he came back to his senses. He calculated carefully: "Fine cinnabar can be used to make hair swelling. I have some here, but black There is no clay, but there is ordinary clay..."

Chen Baiqi took over: "I have daggers and iron pieces, but not copper, but I do have similar metals."

Sisi said: "You can give it a try."

They laid out the things Si Si needed one by one. Si Si first borrowed a fire from the prison and used the fire to burn the artificial iron sheets. Then, he mixed black clay with fine vermilion yarn on the iron sheets and added brittle copper to gradually melt it. The soft clay melted into one, and finally, Si Si stuffed the soft mixed clay directly into the iron chain lock.

After touching it for a few breaths, he pulled it out. At this time, the mixed clay had hardened, and he used the gap in the lock to begin to form a shape. Then, Si Jiang carefully picked up the sharpening dagger and carved it bit by bit. Apply hard mix and clay.

During the entire carving process, he was very attentive and focused, striving to achieve even strength in every step.

Chen Baiqi watched quietly from the side: "Is he...making his own key?"

I don't understand why.

Si Jiang nodded blankly.

Chen Baiqi looked at Si Jiang: "Is this exquisite skill inherited from the ancestors of the Yue royal family?"

Of course this was a joke.

Si Jiang's expression was very depressed: "He left the country as a hostage since he was a child. What exactly he has experienced in the Chu country these years, I guess I only know the words of comfort from others, I don't know the details."

Chen Baiqi consoled him: "As long as you are alive, you will be fine."

Other things will always ease one day. Time is a good medicine that can heal all barriers.

"Chen San, what do you think people are doing in this world? If they don't work hard, they will be oppressed by others. If they don't work hard, they will be bullied by others. Zhao Guo...Zhao Guo can use Luban's mechanical diagram to control the people.

The Yue Kingdom was destroyed, and because of Chu's power, he was able to raise my brothers like cattle and poultry. How should I settle this account of my suffering and my brother's suffering?" Si Jiang said sarcastically.

"Si Jiang, if you are willing to fight, I will definitely help you." Chen Baiqi said solemnly.

Si Jiang paused for a moment, then smiled, with flowers on his lips, and said with a playful smile: "Chen San, are you serious about this?"

Chen Baiqi also smiled: "I'm telling the truth."

Si Jiang laughed with her, but he stopped laughing. He lowered his eyes: "Why..." Why do you treat me so... well?

After all, he is a real man, but he doesn't have the thick skin to say some things.

Chen Baiqi didn't understand it at first, but after slowly thinking about it from his expression, she seemed to understand it, and said honestly: "Maybe it was just fate at the beginning (a strange combination of circumstances), but later maybe I felt...

You deserve it.”

To her now, he is like the other half of a conjoined twin. As the two get closer and closer, his loyalty to her becomes higher and higher, and she is able to more clearly perceive his emotions and thoughts.

, emotions, and even desires.

If she doesn't help him, who should she help?

"alright!"

Sisi's voice suddenly sounded.

Chen Baiqi and Si Jiang looked at it at the same time.

Everyone gathered around and saw Si Si slowly inserting the newly made "four keys" into the lock. He said: "It will break after being used only once. If it can't be opened this time, you'd better give up saving it."

people."

Chen Baiqi looked calm: "I have my own opinion."

When Sisi heard the words, he sneered coldly in his heart, and stopped being cautious. He carefully twisted the "four keys". He seemed to be slowly adjusting the angle, position, and mounting. Suddenly, he paused in his hand: "

Since this person has been locked up so tightly, he must be extremely evil. If he is released, and he wakes up and sees us with evil intentions, are you confident that you can subdue him?"
