Chapter 42 Adviser, Tower of Babel (2)

Young Master Cang Yue was dazed for only a moment after waking up. She subconsciously checked to see if the person in her arms was okay, but unexpectedly her arms were thrown away. Immediately, his expression turned pale, he pursed his lips tightly, and sat up.

Look left and right.

At this time, Shan Hu and his retinue also woke up. They immediately rushed to his side to protect him. Shan Hu held a sword in his hand and his iron clothes were cold. After he helped Young Master Cang Yue up, he looked around uneasily:

"My lord, this is not in the forest. Why are we here?"

Young Master Cang Yue had no intention of responding to his question. Because he couldn't find Chen San, his hands and feet were cold and his face was ugly and livid. He pushed Shan Hu's arm away and staggered forward a few steps, his eyes constantly waking up and standing.

Patrolling in the army.

"Chen San..." His voice was hoarse, as if he could no longer make any sound. He probably hurt his throat when he screamed in front of him.

"Chen San——"

He was anxious, thinking, regretting, and worrying. He wondered...whether he had lost her without knowing it again.

——Where did she go?

She was so seriously injured, where could she go?

——

After hearing Si Jiang's words, Chen Baiqi was startled and turned around with Ji Yun.

Not far away, she saw Young Master Cang Yue staring at her with a pair of red eyes. The whites of her light blue eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, as if she hadn't slept for a long time. The pupils were shining like frozen tides in the foggy night.

It's just that those eyes are as hot as fire and attractive like magnets.

Chen Baiqi seemed to be shocked by his expression and eyes, and did not react for a long time.

Ji Yun, Si Jiang and others felt that Master Cang Yue's demeanor at this moment was very... strange, and this "weirdness" made them feel a sense of rejection and worry.

Young Master Cang Yue abandoned all his entourage and walked quickly towards Chen Baiqi alone. His steps were overlapping too fast, his clothes were dancing in the wind, and a strand of hair from his temples brushed against his pale and hard lips, revealing a bit of strong urgency.

"Chen San——"

he called.

Chen Baiqi opened his eyes slightly. Why did his voice... become so hoarse?

"Chen San——"

He called again forcefully.

Because he used too much force, his hoarse voice broke directly, which was even more rough and unpleasant to hear, but Chen Baiqi's expression changed.

"Son."

She responded.

As if she couldn't wait to get closer to the last step, Master Cang Yue stretched out her arm and grabbed Chen Baiqi in front of her. His heavy breathing sounded like falling raindrops. His squinted eyes were sparkling and sharp.

He was staring at her majestically, as if he wanted to see her through.

He wanted to ask how she was injured, he wanted to ask her why she left without waking him up when she woke up, he wanted to ask her why she became the Queen's bodyguard "Toru"... He wanted to ask her too many questions.

, but in the end, thousands of words turned into just a whisper.

"Chen San..." This time, he called her again, but his tone was completely different from the previous eagerness and nervousness. Instead, he breathed a long sigh of relief, like a taut string that had finally taken off all its strength.

Everyone around them looked surprised and stared at them with twinkling eyes. They couldn't tell what happened to these two people for a while. However, many people in Cang Yue's army knew Chen Baiqi, such as Shan Hu, who followed the young master Cang.

When Yue came here together, she suddenly stared at Chen San as if she had seen a ghost, as if she could not understand why she appeared here inexplicably in such a dangerous battlefield.

Chen Baiqi felt his ears softened by his "Chen San" call. Thinking of her previous transformation into a living person, she might have frightened him. She suddenly felt apologetic and said softly: "Master, earlier

Chen San didn't want to reveal his identity in front of the queen, so he didn't recognize the young master, but he didn't want to be recognized in that way in the end. Chen San even apologized..."

Young Master Cang Yue didn't speak immediately. He kept staring at her and turned around for a long time. After a few seconds, he said: "...Is this all you want to say?"

"Chen San is very lucky that the young master can be safe and sound. Chen San is really lucky." Chen San thought for a while and then added.

When someone returns from such a disaster, he should at least send a congratulations.

"Chen San! Why... why are you working so hard every time..." His words were unclear because he was concerned about the eyes of the people around him, but he thought that Chen Baiqi understood.

Chen Baiqi naturally understood. She thought that since she had paid such a high price, she should not let go of the opportunity to seek benefits. She said: "Chen San has only one wish from beginning to end."

She wants to be his counselor.

The young master Cang Yue also recalled that she once told him that she wanted to stay by his side and serve as his adviser.

At that time, he didn't think about it seriously, or even if he did, he rejected it in the end. But now... he has made other decisions.

He wanted to keep her by his side because he could no longer imagine what kind of thrilling appearance she would appear in when she left his sight next time. This time, he was so frightened that he almost lost his mind. This experience

No matter how much he didn't want to suffer it a second time, he was prepared to let her stay by his side, no matter if she was an adviser... or in another capacity.

"Okay, if you save my life, I will fulfill your wish."

His eyes scanned her facial features softly and sharply, recalling the previous scenes where she was "Toru" but risked everything for him. His heart was sore and painful. For a moment, he felt as soft as water. He wanted to reach out and touch her.

With her soft little face, he wanted to reach out and hug her petite body, and he wanted to talk to her about small things between the two of them. Unfortunately, there were so many people paying attention around him, so he could only suppress his impulse in the end.

He let go of her arm and changed the subject: "Your injury..."

"It's just some skin trauma. It looks serious but it's just excessive blood loss. I just took the same medicine I gave the young master last time and he's fine now." Chen Baiqi said.

The medicine she had given him before... was the miraculous doctor assigned to her by her brother-in-law Ji Yun?

Young Master Cang Yue's eyes wandered away from her body, and she saw that she was wearing a "transparent" blood-stained dress, which was stained with blood, but most of it was brown. It had obviously dried for a long time, but it was not like a fresh wound. Of course, there was fresh blood on her body.

The blood was stained, but all the exposed wounds were gone... He hesitated to believe it, but it was not easy to check the injuries on her body in public. However, seeing that she was walking freely at the moment, her face was the same as that of a normal person, he was surprised and relieved.

.

In any case, her injuries were not serious, and he could feel relieved.

"Where is this?" Young Master Cang Yue finally looked away from her.

The question of Young Master Cang Yue is actually a doubt that exists in everyone's mind at this moment.

"Well, this should still be... one of Hou Qing's formations." Chen Bai raised her face without revealing any emotion. She rubbed her lower jaw and said in a contemplative state.

Young Master Cang Yue's expression froze for a moment.

"But it's very different from the previous formation..."

Chen Baiqi also had a face full of "confusion": "I don't know either. After being injured and comatose, I unexpectedly found myself here when I woke up."

At this time, everyone in the "Night Owl" team was awake, and they all gathered around Chen Baiqi, because many people did not know that they had been ambushed by Hou Qing before, so Si Jiang explained to them again based on Chen Baiqi's original words

, everyone suddenly realized what happened.

Because Si Jiang did not take into account the left and right when speaking, Cang Yuejun, who was also a blind fly, also knew the details.

Because Si Jiang's speech was polished, it made Chen Baiqi's "speculation" even more convincing.

Therefore, everyone accepted the statement that they were trapped in the "formation".

"Ah - monsters - there are monsters -"

Suddenly, someone in the crowd screamed violently, attracting the attention of everyone around him.

Immediately, Young Master Cang Yue led Cang Yue's army, while Chen Baiqi led her "Night Owl" team members and immediately rushed towards the location where the sound came from.

At first glance, I saw a Cang Yue soldier falling to the ground. He kicked his legs back in panic, pointed at a place with a trembling finger, and screamed: "Monster, monster, cow, human -

—”

Young Master Cang Yue glanced at him, then looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a group of Minotaurs standing in the corner of the shadow of the column in front of them. These Minotaurs were eight feet tall. Although they had a bull's head, they had

They are muscular bodies, holding silver-white axes, with their hooves touching the ground. No matter how you look at them, they feel weird and scary.

If one such monster appears in front of you, it will be frightening, but if such a large group appears, it will be a disaster.

Young Master Cang Yue was also stunned when she saw it.

"This is……"

Chen Baiqi looked over, her eyes flashed, and she secretly blamed herself for forgetting that there was a monster guarding the tower in the tower. As soon as her mind turned, she had an idea: "There probably won't be such a monster in this world, could it be...

Could it be that Hou Qing used formations to create frightening illusions?"

Since science cannot explain it, we can only use this fabricated illusion to mislead them.

At this time, Si Jiang also saw a group of monsters wandering in the cave. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he finally understood the reason why Chen Baiqi had communicated with him earlier.

Si Jiang echoed: "That must be the case. Using the formation to catalyze the illusion, I think Hou Qing intends to use our fear to make us lose without fighting."

Hou Qing said that he was shot while lying down.

"This is an illusion, but why is it so real?" someone questioned.

"It's not true, how can you bluff people." Si Jiang glanced sideways at the man.

The man smiled and said, "..." It seemed to make sense.

"They seem...can't see us." Someone discovered the situation again and shouted in surprise.

"really?"

"Just look, I walked past him without incident." The brave ones carefully walked into the Minotaur's boundary with tiptoe, then waved their hands in surprise and shouted, "It's really just an illusion."

Chen Baiqi's head was full of black lines: There are still seventeen minutes left before the protective shield in the tower will be lifted by itself. Will this person still be able to smile so "innocently" by then?

"If this is an illusory formation set up by the Queen, then I guess we won't have to wait long to get out of the formation." Young Master Cang Yue suddenly said.

Chen Baiqi was slightly surprised when he heard this and looked at him in confusion.

At this time, Shan Hu answered for his lord. He raised his rough chin and said: "My lord has long been on guard against the cunning Empress Dowager's various insidious tricks, so we have already sent a team of Yulin's elite troops.

Wait at the rear. If we fail to send the signal at the agreed time, the elite Yulin from the rear will automatically bring Mr. Xiangbo to come for support."

It turns out that he still has some tricks up his sleeve. It seems that the saying that one learns from one's mistakes is indeed true.
