The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people

Under the boundless moonlight, the gates of the capital city were wide open, and several figures riding horses rushed out from behind the gates, heading straight to the north.

If someone had the courage to take a closer look at this moment, they would have discovered that this group of people was not from the same group. The man in the lead was dressed in black and had a pair of eyes as deep as ink, and they were exactly the same as those of the Lord Square Leader who had always been following His Majesty.

The outskirts of Beijing were covered in snow. The horse hoof prints left on the snow were quickly covered by the heavy snow, as if they had never been there.

Liang Chongyue didn't know what was happening in the capital. She and Jing Suiyang were having dinner together in the secret passage.

It was pitch dark in the secret passage two meters away from the Night Pearl. Liang Chongyue simply bought a few compressed biscuits from the mall. He and Jing Suiyang each had two biscuits, drank some water, and continued on their journey after they were full.

This secret passage was repaired quite some time ago. Some small animals that got in somehow couldn't find a way out and starved to death here.

Liang Chongyue would occasionally step on the dead bones of rats, and the shriveled corpses would make a crunching sound when he stepped on them.

It was the sound they heard most often in this secret passage, besides each other's breathing.

"Host, keep going! You've already completed one-fifth of the route. Preliminary estimates suggest that at this pace, you'll reach the exit by this time the day after tomorrow."

The system thoughtfully attached the latest calculations from the instrument. Their speed was even slower than initially estimated. After all, their vision was limited, and Liang Chongyue was also carrying Jing Suiyang with her. It was impossible for her to reveal the secret in front of him just for the sake of convenience in the journey.

"It's okay. Have you figured out which exit the little snake took from the secret passage?"

The little snake has a slender and petite body. It can get out as long as there is a hole as thick as a finger. However, the live video on the panel shows that the exit is blocked. I wonder if the old poisonous creature doesn't want Yan Yang to go back and deliberately blocked the exit.

The system was suddenly questioned by the host. It had no idea of a solution, so it was silent for a moment, then displayed the blocked exit on the panel to the host.

"That old poisonous creature probably really doesn't want Yan Yang to go back. There are two wooden boards and several large rocks covering the exit. Host, why don't we use gunpowder to blow it up."

What the system said was the only way it could think of. Looking at the wellhead on the panel that was covered by seven or eight large stones, Liang Chongyue really admired the brains of the Northern Territory royal family for setting up the secret passage for escape in a dry well.

This dry well was built in the cold palace. No wonder the concubines in the Northern Border Palace would be beaten to death if they made mistakes, and none of them would be demoted to commoners or sent to the cold palace.

It turns out that this cold palace was built for the royal family, and no one other than the emperor is worthy of being sent to this cold palace.

"Prepare some explosives, but control the amount. Don't let the wellhead fail to be blown open, and instead completely block the road."

After assigning the task to the system, Liang Chongyue continued on his way. In order to confuse the enemy, there were countless small paths in the secret passage. Even with a map in hand, Liang Chongyue still took the wrong path twice in this pitch-black environment.

Seeing that the map showed that they had completed most of the journey and had less than a quarter of the way left, Liang Chongyue opened a candy and put it in his mouth as a reward for himself.

The orange flavored ones are not very tasty, but bulk candies are cheap. Luck is important now, so Liang Chongyue doesn't need the system to persuade him to spend money. Looking at the rapidly decreasing balance, he began to control himself and tied his hands and feet.

When Liang Chongyue and Jing Suiyang finally reached the end of the secret passage, Liang Chongyue saw a faint light coming from the wellhead at the exit. This was the first ray of sunlight they had seen in the past three days, except for the light of the night pearl.

Just as she was about to get closer, Liang Chongyue felt a chill on her neck. The little snake, who had snuggled into her arms and kept itself warm, quickly felt cold as soon as it came out of her arms.

Liang Chongyue heard the hissing sound of a small snake spitting out its tongue next to his ear. The sound became louder and louder. It didn't seem to come from his ear, but from the wellhead.

Jing Sui Yang obviously heard the voice as well, and silently moved his feet to stand in front of Liang Chongyue.

Remembering what Lian Chi said when he sent the little snake to her room the night before they set off, Liang Chongyue was not at all panicked in the face of the increasingly loud hissing sound from below the wellhead. She took the little snake off her neck, held it in her hand and soothed it twice.

Then she slowly squatted down and put the little snake on the ground. The range of the night pearl's illumination was limited, and Liang Chongyue could only watch the little snake slowly disappear from her sight and swim towards the position below the wellhead.

The hissing sound below the wellhead became louder and louder. Liang Chongyue drew out the magic sword behind him, and the golden light instantly illuminated the road from Liang Chongyue's feet to the bottom of the wellhead.

Countless snakes rushed towards the little snake as if they had been trained. There was something wrong with these snakes. When the light of the magic sword shone on them, their eyes turned red.

Liang Chongyue suddenly thought of those mutated ape-men. Although there was no definite connection between the two, Liang Chongyue still felt that those mutated ape-men were very similar to these snakes.

Liang Chongyue stared straight at the little snake swimming towards the snake group. It was so small that it was not even half the length of the snake opposite.

If Lian Chi hadn't really loved snakes and hadn't repeatedly assured her of the little snake's abilities, Liang Chongyue would have picked up her sword and killed the snake by now.

Seeing that the snake group was getting closer and closer to the little snake, the leader Guo Shanfeng, who had been standing upright just now, slowly lay down and stopped moving forward.

The snakes following behind also stopped and watched the little snake approach. The leader, Guo Shanfeng, rubbed its head affectionately. His eyes, which had been scarlet just now, suddenly dimmed a lot and didn't look as scary as before.

Liang Chongyue didn't expect that this little snake was so powerful. She became more and more curious about how powerful the two king cobras raised by Lian Chi on the farm must be to give birth to such a powerful little snake.

Liang Chongyue was just thinking about it when the little snake turned around and spit out its tongue at her, as if urging her to catch up quickly.

Liang Chongyue held the magic sword and stood in front of the two of them, moving her feet. Every time she took a step, the group of snakes on the opposite side also took a step forward.

Until the two sides met at a distance of less than one meter, the little snake jumped lightly onto Liang Chongyue's legs, half of its body crawled into Liang Chongyue's combat boots, and the other half hung outside to communicate with the snake group.

Liang Chongyue did not move first, but let the snakes leave first. After the snakes were far away, Liang Chongyue took Jing Suiyang and the little snake and walked quickly to the bottom of the well.

Looking at the few rays of sunlight shining through the wellhead, Liang Chongyue picked up the magic sword, gathered his strength with his feet, and leaped forward. When he was close to the wellhead, he inserted the magic sword into the well wall.

The magic sword made a sharp sound when it pierced the stone wall. Liang Chongyue grabbed the magic sword with both hands and hung at the mouth of the well, supported only by the two magic swords inserted into the stone wall.
