The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 204 Authentic

The next morning, Gu Junqing woke up early.

He packed up his things and was about to go out when he ran into Shi Yulin, who had thrown his apprentice to him last night.

He obviously didn't know he would see Gu Junqing here, so when he saw her, he smiled awkwardly and thought about saying something, but seeing that Gu Junqing seemed to be in a hurry to leave, he changed his words to:

"General Gu, go early and come back early"

I thought he was going to tell me about what happened yesterday, but he was talking about this now. Gu Jun nodded, and without any intention of insisting any further, he turned around and left.

At this time, she should be rushing to the morning court. After the morning court, she was supposed to go to the palace to do some work. After all, she was owed several days. The emperor asked her to do something in the palace, but now Gu Junqing had to go to the southern suburbs of the capital to investigate the tunnel.

So the matter was put on hold for the time being.

So after the morning court session, Gu Junqing found Xin Chuan, and then took a small road and arrived at the southern suburbs of the capital in half an hour.

A morning court session takes two hours, and after the morning court session, one has to finish lunch before looking for Xin Chuan.

The sun is blazing hot right now, and the temperature is high, as if it will not stop until people get heatstroke. Xin Chuan touched the sweat on his forehead and couldn't help but complain:

"This weather is really strange. It was fine yesterday, but why is it like this today? Also, General Gu, you are wearing so many clothes, aren't you hot?"

Gu Junqing looked calm, her forehead was clear, and there was no sign of sweat. She nodded briskly to indicate that she was fine, and replied to Xin Chuan with four simple words:

"Not much, just right." Xin Chuan looked at Gu Junqing with envy, and almost said it directly.

He looked away to avoid getting jealous later.

Fortunately, it felt much cooler after we arrived at the tunnel in the southern suburbs.

This time they brought a lot of people, but most of them were secret guards, because bringing so many people in the open would alert the enemy.

So on the surface it seemed that there were only Xin Chuan and Gu Junqing, but in fact there were nearly forty secret guards hiding in the dark waiting for instructions from the two later.

Gu Junqing stood in front of this underground stone door. He felt around the door for a long time but found nothing. Gu Jun withdrew his hand and focused his attention elsewhere.

Xin Chuan, who was standing not far away, saw that Gu Junqing was so serious, he felt embarrassed to just stand there and do nothing, so he walked to Gu Junqing's side and search with her. Maybe they could find the mechanism to open the stone door.

If not, it means that this place was where the original residents were buried, and they don’t want others to enter, nor do they want to let the people inside come out.

Even so, they still have to look for the mechanism. After all, they are still very curious about the secret of the stone gate.

However, after searching for a while, both of them found nothing. They could only stand there, not knowing what they were thinking about.

Xin Chuan spoke first:

"General Gu, could it be that we were heading in the wrong direction from the beginning? Otherwise, why don't we dig a hole in the ground?"

Gu Junqing felt that what Xin Chuan said made sense, but it was unrealistic and irrational, so he shook his head and said it was not necessary.

Usually, this kind of stone door has a mechanism. Gu Junqing remembered that he had opened a similar mechanism before, but many years had passed and he had almost forgotten how to open the lock.

Gu Junqing felt that this was not a good idea, and she felt that she could still try to salvage the relationship.

But the mechanism here is obviously more tricky than the previous ones, and I can't even find where the switch is.

Gu Junqing felt that he should think in reverse.

It's like, look toward the exit.

Thinking of what was going on, Gu Junqing turned around and walked towards the exit they came from. After standing still, she raised her eyes and looked at the stone door not far away. She fumbled around here for a while. The place was covered with ivy, and the walls and rocks were almost invisible. Then, she touched some mechanism, and the stone door that was originally closed suddenly opened.

Xin Chuan was stunned by Gu Jun's actions. He looked at the open stone door, then looked at Gu Junqing who was standing there studying something, and for a moment he didn't know which way to go.

However, before he could hesitate for too long, Gu Junqing stood up and walked towards the stone gate.

The stone door opened, and there was indeed a tunnel inside. There were no other mechanisms as imagined before, and it was very quiet.

But it was pitch black inside and he couldn't see the road clearly. Xin Chuan hesitated. Gu Junqing glanced at him and thought he was scared, so he asked:

"Do you want to light the tinder?"

When Xin Chuan saw her asking him this, he gritted his teeth and thought to himself, I'm a grown man, the road is just a little dark, there's nothing to be afraid of, I should learn from General Gu who is calm and composed without changing his expression.

So he shook his head and said, "No need, so as not to alert the enemy, let's go."

Gu Junqing looked at him again, then nodded: "Okay, let's go."

The two men approached the stone gate, and the secret guards followed them in the dark. After everyone went in, the stone gate closed automatically.

Gu Junqing has good night vision, so he can adapt to the dark environment and walk as if it were flat ground.

The secret guards often hide in the dark and have very good night vision. As for Xin Chuan...

Xin Chuan felt that if Gu Junqing hadn't been there to guide him, he would have fallen here eight hundred times and would probably have been broken.

They were not sure whether this tunnel would eventually lead to the northern suburbs, so they could only keep moving forward.

It is estimated that this tunnel took a long time to complete. After all, such a long and rarely flat road would take at least one or two years to complete.

The longer they walked, the more Gu Junqing felt that this tunnel was the tunnel leading to the northern suburbs.

After all, we have been walking for almost half an hour. It also takes half an hour to rush from the northern suburbs to the southern suburbs, and now the same logic can be understood.

"Half an hour has passed, and the road is still dark. If this tunnel leads to the northern suburbs, it should have an end by now..."

Before Xin Chuan could finish his words, he saw a light shining not far away.

The light meant that there might be someone nearby. Xin Chuan immediately shut up, and his expression changed from being careless to being alert.

Gu Junqing slowed down her steps. Compared with Xin Chuan who looked alert beside her, she seemed more calm and composed.

Gu Junqing held his breath and focused all his attention on his ears, trying to hear some other different sounds, like conversations or something else.

It turned out not to be.

Gu Junqing thought, why not just move forward and see what the situation is.

She made a gesture, asking Xin Chuan to wait here first, and she went forward to take a look alone.
