He Yi’s heart was in a mess, but she was gentle and calm.
Anyway, this guy had always been like this. He always looked like he had a plan in mind. However, being with someone like him could indeed give her a sense of security, because he always looked like he had a plan in mind. In fact, his ability to deal with problems... was still somewhat reliable!
He Yi thought of how he was able to pull the ice silk in time and rescue her in time, and how he was able to deal with the Loulan Queen who had turned into a demon with ease. The entire process was filled with wisdom and ability.
Therefore, even though she was extremely repulsed and puzzled by his insistence to enter the underground palace, she could only follow him.
The main problem was that she had no choice but to follow him. She did not dare to stay outside. Moreover, the sudden arrival of the fog was strange, so she did not dare to stay outside alone.
She gently came to the front door of the main hall. Her long and slender hand grabbed the red copper door ring and gently knocked a few times as a greeting to the master of the palace. Then, he turned the copper ring three times to the left and three times to the right.
He Yi found that he was familiar with the place. As expected, he had been here before.
“Creak!”The heavy wooden door that had been silent for a thousand years slowly opened. It was like a huge mouth waiting for its prey to deliver itself to the door.
Gently took the lead and walked in. He did not forget to carefully instruct, “Be careful of the steps!”
The threshold was thirty to forty centimeters high. He had to step hard to not trip over it. He Yi finally understood what the ancient people meant by the high threshold.
When they entered the palace, there was no damp and rotten smell as they had imagined. The air was very fresh, and there was no strange smell at all.
He Yi could not help but exclaim, “The ventilation system in this palace is very good!”
It was indeed not easy to ensure that the palace that had been sealed for a thousand years did not have any rotten smell. Moreover, this was an underground palace that was built in a damp place that did not see the sun all year round.
“HMM, not bad!”Gentle waved his flashlight and walked towards a bronze statue. He fiddled with the bronze statue for a while.
He Yi shone the flashlight and saw that it was a guard with a knife. Not only was he carrying a treasured knife, he was also holding something in his hand.
Gently, he twisted away an item in his hand and lit a match.
“Whoosh!”A miracle happened in an instant.
A candle as thick as an arm was lit in the hands of all the royal guards. It was not brand new, but one-third of it had already been lit.
He Yi was shocked by this spectacle. She did not have the time to praise the wisdom of the ancients again. She only exclaimed, “Someone has been here!”
After saying that, she saw a gentle and meaningful gaze. She immediately understood and felt a little awkward.
Gentle said that it was very good inside and insisted on bringing her around. After entering, he treated everything with ease. This fully showed that he had been here before.
And now that she said that someone had been here and was still very surprised, gentle would naturally laugh at her intelligence.
He had always liked to praise her for being smart. Of course, even the smartest person would sometimes be muddle-headed.
Fortunately, gentle was not a mean person and did not take the opportunity to add insult to injury. He pretended that he did not hear any flaws and said considerately, “This main hall is a little deserted. Let’s go to the side hall to rest for a while!”

The cave was dark and devoid of sunlight that had not changed for a thousand years, but outside the cave was the vibrant and brilliant morning sun.
Ji Xueshan was overjoyed to see the sun again. The first thing she had to do was to turn on the phone he yi had given her, because he yi had said that the phone was located by satellite GPS and had a super strong signal.
As long as she turned on the phone in any corner of the Earth, the satellite would immediately find the exact location.
She believed that Yi Liangze’s people would definitely find her immediately and come to rescue her in time.
“Get in the car!”Ken ordered expressionlessly.
Ji Xueshan suppressed the excitement in her heart, but she also knew that Ken hated her very much because of He Yi’s death. Without saying anything, she immediately got in the car, but opened the door at the back of the car.
Ken also got in the car, sat in the driver’s seat, and started the car.
“Ken,”Dong Chang walked over and instructed, “Hurry Back!”With that, he glanced at Ji Xueshan, who was sitting in the back seat, and added another sentence. “We must send her and her things back safely! Mr. Wen specifically instructed us!”
“HMPH!”Ken snorted disdainfully, “There’s no need for him to explain. I’m not doing these things for his explanation!”
He was doing it for he yi! Because he owed he yi his life!
“Ken, my child!”Dong Chang advised patiently, “It’s not a good thing for you to disobey Mr. Wen like this. You should understand...”
