Wait... There was still one most important question. He Yi could not help but ask the only question, “There is no light in this underground palace, how can bamboo grow? How can aquatic plants grow?”
Plants could not grow without sunlight, because sunlight was needed to complete photosynthesis. If plants could not grow, how would other creatures live.
“There is an air vent above the garden that can shine light in. It can provide light for at least six hours a day,”explained he yi gently. Seeing the doubt in he Yi’s eyes, he did not wait for her to continue asking, he continued, “There is no place to climb in that cave. Only birds can fly up!”
The underground palace had considered all aspects during the planning process. Even the only crack that could be used was not wasted. The only crack, the only passage that connected the underground palace to the outside world, was a narrow crack in the sky. Only birds could freely enter and exit. Even planes could not do anything about it because it was too narrow.
He Yi could not help but be surprised. “Why are you so familiar with this place!”
To be so familiar with the underground palace, he must have lived here for a long time before he could observe it in such detail.
Gentle looked at the flickering candle on the table and said with a smile, “Legend has it that this kind of candle made from shark oil can be used for half a year!”
He Yi had long noticed that a third of all the candles had been lit. In other words... gentle had lived here for at least two months.
Now, he Yi had no more doubts! She remembered that when she first entered the underground palace, he said that he would bring her in for a walk and that he would treat her to a good meal.
At that time, she had felt that there was something wrong with his brain. She had even thought that he might have been possessed by a ghost, or that he had been frightened by the evil spirit that Queen Loulan had turned into, which was why he had spouted nonsense.
Now... Alright, she had to admit that he was absolutely right.
It seemed that he had never said anything empty, much less bragged about it. The things that he had said would definitely be done!
“Why aren’t you eating!”He Yi noticed that he did not eat much.
He smiled gently and said, “Look at you eating, you taste better than me!”
He Yi’s cheeks burned slightly because the man’s words were a little explicit and intimate, and she could not hide it no matter what. She wanted to pretend that she did not understand, but when she remembered that this man was so smart that he was almost cunning, she decided not to play dumb anymore, so she decided to speak frankly.
Her pretty face darkened slightly, and she warned sternly, “I am a man with a husband. I hope that you will be careful when you speak and do things. Thank you!”
Thus, the awkward person was replaced by gentleness.
He Yi discovered that one couldn’t be too honest, or else he would only be bullied.
See, he was the one who was clearly the first, so he had to reap what he sowed.
Gentleness picked up his chopsticks and used food and drink to cover up his embarrassment.
He Yi turned around and looked around, feeling that this place was too beautiful. Although it had been silent for a thousand years and was inevitably covered in dust, it was still very grand and beautiful overall. What was even more amazing was that there was actually no spider web here.
Generally, the environment would be full of spider webs from a long time ago, and it would be extremely dilapidated. There was actually no trace of spider webs here. No wonder he yi did not feel that it was dilapidated apart from some dust when she first came in. The main reason was that there was no spider web to affect the beauty.
He Yi did not ask for more advice, but she could guess the general reason. On the way to the underground palace, she found that the stone road that had been deserted for thousands of miles was barren. She knew that the people who built the underground palace must be proficient in medicine.
They could kill the grass, but they could also kill the Spiders. There must be some kind of insect repellent medicine in the underground palace, and it had been effective for thousands of years.
After he yi had eaten her fill, she had almost finished visiting the side hall. It should be a private place for the queen to eat, and it was full of women’s preferences. This gorgeous style and the exquisite details did not seem to fit he Yi’s aesthetic preferences.
“You like it here, Don’t you?”He Yi stood behind her gently and asked.
He Yi, who was immersed in surprise, could not help but be shocked by him. She turned around and asked, “Are you full?”
He nodded gently and looked at her. He suggested, “I’m already awake and full. Let’s go for a walk!”

Ken’s car drove for about half an hour before it suddenly stopped.
Ji Xueshan, who was sitting in the back, was a little puzzled. She asked, “Why did it stop?”
“There’s the sound of an airplane’s motor!”Ken frowned and quickly made a judgment and decision. “It’s a military helicopter. Maybe the military found it!”
