The Year of Lihua: She Was Reborn

Chapter 54 Escape from the Room

"Go and go!"

Mu Qi picked up the sword at his waist, stood up quickly, and walked out as if risking his life.

"No need to go. There is a secret passage here that leads to another oasis, which can bypass those who are pursuing us." Hua Ye pointed to the darker depths of the secret room.

"Are you kidding me? Miss Hua!"

"Who told you to look like a fool?"

Hua Ye burst out laughing...

"Brother Zuo Nian, can you take care of your family?"

Mu Qi jumped straight over Hua Ye and came to Zuo Nian. He was able to read his words and expressions to the point of being very insightful.

She is not afraid of even the Lord of Heaven, but she is only afraid of Zuo Nian and being discovered by him!

"Major General Mu, no need to call for reinforcements."

Hua Ye slipped out while speaking. When he stuck his head out, he saw that there was no one within a radius of 5 meters, so he found a hidden place and sent a signal.

"Prevent surprise attacks, deploy defenses in advance!"

Zuo Nian, who followed closely, was actually a little indignant at her arbitrary decision...

"Miss Hua, please inform your subordinates in advance before you do anything so that they can be prepared in advance! You alone cannot withstand thousands of troops."

Zuo Nian stared at her with a serious expression, his eagle eyes wide open, as if he wanted to see through her.

"I've clearly never been to this desert before, but I know the route better than Mu Qi does."

"Okay, I'll follow Major General Zuo's instructions. Next time, I'll tell you in advance to prevent you from worrying about me!"

As Hua Ye spoke, he walked closer and closer, standing right in front of his ear and speaking submissively.

"Go in quickly, they saw the flare coming!"

Hua Ye took Zuo Nian's arm and hurriedly walked into the dark room and closed the door.

Li Li could only collapse on the ground, unable to move, and watched them being affectionate with each other. Especially Hua Ye's bold and unreserved actions stung his eyes.

His eyes were red as he looked at the two of them, feeling like there was something stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter a word.

"I sent someone to explore the route, and there is indeed a secret passage leading to an unknown place."

Mu Qi took the torch stuck in the stone wall and held it forward to illuminate the way down the stairs.

"Then let's set off immediately!" Zuo Nian also took the torch.

"Your Highness, we are sorry for offending you by supporting you."

Hua Er and Hua San bowed and saluted, then one of them took one of the Crown Prince's arms, put it on his shoulder, and carried him downstairs.

"Everyone, don't walk against the wall to avoid touching the mechanism. Line up and walk in the middle of the stairs."

Hua Ye shouted at the top of her lungs, and her resounding voice could be heard in the secret passage.

They then lined up in two columns and slowly walked down. The air became thinner as they went down, making it difficult to breathe.

Hua Ye quickly pinched open the snake-shaped stone protruding from the stone wall and turned on the air circulation mechanism. He heard a crackling sound from the stone wall, and then several beams of light shone in.

As oxygen entered, the torches on the stone wall burned brighter and brighter, illuminating the strange, ancient characters on the stone wall that looked like words but not like words...

In my previous life, I read through all the ancient books in the palace and finally recognized these hieroglyphs.

She carefully wrote down the techniques written on the stone wall, completing the incomplete techniques from her previous life in her mind. "How about we take a break here? Major General Zuo!"

Hua Ye groped and knocked on the door of a secret room, then fell in. The room was bright, clean and spotless, as if someone lived there.

Zuo Nian grabbed her with his big hands and pulled her up from where she was about to fall, then looked inside.

There were a few immovable stone chairs, a dilapidated wardrobe, and a stone bed with only an incorruptible corpse sitting peacefully on it, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"He must have gone to the Western Paradise!"

Mu Qi looked at the corpse back and forth, trying to see something from his pale face that had no trace of warmth.

There were several large holes carved out of the stone wall, and on the holes were placed obscure books that had long turned yellow, but Hua Ye regarded them as treasures.

She patted Zuo Nian's arm and jumped away, trotting over to take them down, tearing off a piece of yellow robe cloth to wrap them up, making a bag of medium size, and carrying it on her shoulders.

She ran to the corpse again and kowtowed loudly several times...

"What are you doing?" Mu Qi was shocked by her behavior again. "We've never met before, there's no need to be so polite!"

"You don't understand. He is a god who has cultivated himself and achieved enlightenment."

Hua Ye untied his black robe, and a relic in his shriveled chest shone with a faint golden light through the skin.

"Master, I'm sorry for being late."

Hua Ye silently muttered in his mind as he pulled out a dagger from his boots, drew a bloody mark on his palm, and covered the chest of the corpse.

Zuo Nian and Li Li's pupils shrank at the same time, with worried expressions on their faces. They also noticed the different degrees of abrasions and puncture wounds on her hands.

Her blood seeped into the corpse's skin, and gradually blood spots began to appear on the pale face...
