Chapter 226 Robbery
Chapter 226 Robbery
"Want to go out?"
Ye Qi looked at the strange stone, who was asking knowingly, and his heart trembled. He was afraid that the stone would be moody and want to keep him, so he subconsciously brushed it off his shoulder, hid aside, and asked, "Could it be that Senior wants to keep me for dinner?"
"Uh! These stones are my dinner. I'm afraid you, with your mortal body, are not worthy of enjoying them. However, that piece of Chaos Cloud Stone Spirit Embryo might be suitable for you!"
As the stone monster spoke, he flew towards the chaotic cloud stone spirit fetus and swallowed it in one gulp. Then his body turned back into its small and exquisite shape again.
"Well! Since it belongs to the senior, I naturally don't dare to covet it!"
Ye Qi looked at the stone monster, which reminded him in a sarcastic tone while swallowing the treasure directly. For a moment, he didn't know what it meant by saying this, and suddenly he didn't dare to act rashly.
"Don't be nervous. This Chaos Cloud Stone Spirit Embryo is resistant. With your current strength, you can't take it away. I will temporarily take it into my body. When the time is right, I will naturally give it to you!"
As Yunshi spoke, he walked towards the corridor from which he came. These actions and words made Ye Qi's already confused mind even more confused.
"Boy! Why aren't you leaving yet?" The stone monster looked at Ye Qi standing there motionless, turned around and asked.
"Go! Go! Go!"
Although he didn't know what he was up to, since he had saved his life, it meant that he must still be valuable to him. As long as he was valuable, he would be safe. After figuring this out, Ye Qi hurriedly followed him and went into the corridor together!
After the man and the stone walked inside for about an incense stick of time, they finally saw the light at the end of the corridor.
But when Ye Qi stepped out of the corridor, he found that he was no longer in the marble mine, and it seemed to be some distance away. Thinking that Le Qingqing was still in the marble mine, he subconsciously turned around and walked back.
"Boy! There are no treasures left in that marble mine. Why are you going back?"
"Senior, I have friends waiting for me there. Now that we're out, let's say goodbye!"
"Uh! It's not that I have to stick with you, it's really..."
Before the stone monster finished speaking, Ye Qi bent down ninety degrees and said respectfully, "Thank you for your help, senior!"
"Don't be like this... don't be like this... If you need to fight, you have to do it yourself. I won't help you!"
Ye Qi looked at the stone monster clinging to him with a flattering smirk on his face and said, "I can handle this kind of trivial matter myself. Senior, you just need to lend me a hand in this critical moment!"
"That's good! That's good!" The stone monster said and landed on Ye Qi's shoulder.
Ye Qi didn't say any more nonsense and walked towards the marble mine in the distance which was already extremely small in his sight.
Walking in a straight line like this actually shortened the distance by half compared to the winding underground corridor. Not long after walking, I saw the small white dot becoming bigger and bigger in my sight.
But when Ye Qi actually walked to the entrance of the marble mine, he found that Yue Qingqing had her feet tied for some unknown reason and was hanging upside down on a dead tree trunk!
“Qing…Qingqing?”
Seeing this scene, Ye Qi subconsciously drew out his sword in a hurry. As a sword energy passed by, the two people guarding the entrance lost their lives in an instant. He swung the sword again, and the hemp rope on Yue Qingqing's leg also broke.
When she was about to fall to the ground, Ye Qi hugged her by the waist with great precision. When he put her on the ground, he found that she had no strength left in her body. She staggered and almost collapsed to the ground.
Le Qingqing, who was already ill, was hung upside down in the desert under the sun for such a long time. It was normal for her to feel dizzy for a while.
Ye Qi also took out some spring water that he had stored in the oasis and fed her some, which allowed her throat, which had been dry and sore that it was about to smoke, to make a sound.
"Ye Qi... I... I got some information about Miss Mu..."
"Where is she?"
"I don't know where she is yet, but someone has seen her. Just as that person was about to tell me her exact location, he was arrested. I heard she was sent to Qinghuafang!"
"Qinghuafang? Then why are you hanging here?"
Ye Qi pondered for a moment, still feeling somewhat puzzled. If, as Qingqing had said, the two were caught while talking, they should both be punished together. However, now only Qingqing was being punished at the entrance of the marble mine.
"The supervisor said I was disguising myself as a man to deceive him, so he wanted to expose me to the sun for a day as a warning, and then send me to the Blue and White Porcelain Workshop!"
"We'll talk about the rest later. I'll get you out first!"
Ye Qi was about to turn around and take Yue Qingqing away as he spoke, but unexpectedly, as soon as he stood up, several figures appeared at the entrance of the marble mine behind him.
"Boy! You haven't been punished for your crime of sneaking away, and now you're here to rob us. You really don't take us seriously!"
Ye Qi and the other two also stopped after hearing this. In the current situation, the possibility of forcibly escaping with Yue Qingqing while being blocked by the three people was too small. The only way was to kill the three people before others could react, and then leave quickly. At least this was the most reliable option under the current circumstances!
But just when Ye Qi was about to raise his arm, he saw Yue Qingqing's weak hand on his wrist. Although she didn't stop him, he could tell that she didn't want him to do it.
"Ye Qi! This is the only chance to find Miss Mu. Only if I stay here can I find the location of the Qinghuafang. I heard someone specifically asked me to go, so they don't dare to harm my life for the time being. You leave first, I have my own way to make you find my whereabouts!"
As Yue Qingqing spoke, she secretly put a jade pendant in her hand, which carried a trace of her soul power, into Ye Qi's waist. Of course, this action did not escape Ye Qi's eyes.
"Then be careful. I'll be right behind you. If those old bastards dare to harm you, we can just go find the location of the Blue Flower Shop ourselves!"
"Well! Remember to spare their lives later. Just force them to send me to Qinghuafang quickly!"
Ye Qi looked at Le Qingqing with a worried look on his face. The three people behind him also saw that the two had no intention of escaping, so they did not take the initiative to attack. After all, they were used to bullying here. According to the normal script, the two should crawl to their feet in tears, begging them to leave them a way to live, or asking for a quick death!
Unexpectedly, Ye Qi turned around and flew over with a sword, shouting with a ferocious look on his face: "Old bastard! Don't even think about stopping us from leaving today!"
