"Logically speaking, what does the life and death of the Third Prince have to do with Qian Li, although she doesn't like fighting for power in the imperial palace, she also doesn't like to have too many connections with you princes, so she was still willing to see her benefactor die in front of me."
Although the words were not nice to hear, Gong Jue felt that he could still hear some concern in Qian Li's words.
"This King is blessed with great fortune, so how could I possibly die so easily. As for you, if you were to eat more, I'm afraid you really won't be able to hold on for long."
After saying that, he still looked like he had decided to leave. Qian Li felt that if he really wanted to leave, she wouldn't be able to stop him.
Although he seemed crude, she felt that his heart was still very meticulous.
His back was facing Qian Li, and he said, "Your clothes are all drenched, you should just properly change and roast it. I think, I'll need two hours to come back."
Therefore, Qian Li concluded that it was not true. She just felt that staying here would make it easier for her …
Qian Li sighed, she felt that she was really lucky in her life. To be able to meet such a cold-faced and warm-hearted master like Gong Ming, although she was normally cold, she had never really thought of harming her.
To be able to meet such a simple little prince, it was fortunate that Mo Li and his sister were still alive and well.
Just as she was thinking about how to make Gong Jue stay, Qian Li suddenly heard something.
Her ears twitched a few times, and she immediately pursed her lips and smiled.
However, within this smile, there was a haggard look.
she said. " Does that mean as long as we have something to eat, you won't go? "
Gong Jue was certain that there was nothing to eat on Qian Li, that's why he nodded so confidently. If he knew that Qian Li found such a disgusting thing after she nodded, he would have definitely shook his head without hesitation.
Unfortunately, there was no such thing as' if '.
Just like now, when Qian Li saw him nod his head, he immediately stood up and gave him a word of agreement.
"Hey, Qian Li, what are you doing?"
Gong Jue was extremely curious, thinking that Qian Li did not want him to go, but in the end, he went himself.
So, he quickly ran towards the back of Qian Li, but...
Gong Jue who had only ran out a few steps immediately stopped.
Looking at the item that suddenly appeared in Qian Li's hands, he continuously retreated, retreated …
"Qian Li, what are you doing with something?"
"Didn't you say to look for food? We'll eat this. "
Gong Jue had grown up with a golden spoon in his mouth, he had never tasted anything delicious before, but he had never tasted anything weird like this.
Looking at the two snakes in Qian Li's hands, he felt as if her calves were trembling nonstop.
"Legend has it that if you saw two snakes at the same time, you'd be in for a bad luck. You're not afraid to just grab them …"
Gong Ye did not have that much to think about, because when they were trapped, they did not have any food, so as not to starve to death, they had to eat a lot of bark, roots, and frogs, and other things. If they suddenly encountered a snake, they would even think that it was a rare delicacy.
He never thought that the younger brother of his stepbrother would actually be so timid. It's no wonder that Gong Ye was only nice to him, despite looking down on everyone else.
Such a carefree child is indeed very easy to forget.
"What are you afraid of? Is it retribution? " Qian Li's smile was extremely beautiful. Although she was in a sorry state, her clothes were dirty, and there were many scars on her body, these things did not seem to affect her beauty at all.
Her appearance made others want to approach her, but the object in her hand made those who saw it unable to do so.
Gong Jue bit his lips, realising that she was really an extremely extreme girl.
"You're not afraid?" he asked.
"As for retribution, if it really comes, there's no way I can stop it. So, I can't let myself starve to death just because I'm worried about retribution right now, right?"
Gong Jue waved his hand, "Maybe I can find something else …"
However, when he said this, even he himself believed it.
This place did not see the sun all year round, so even if there were any plants or things like that, they would have already died. The things he had said before were really just empty words.
Even if it was a superior medicine, if it wasn't properly preserved, then after so many years, if there was no one to look after it, it would have long been abandoned.
However …
Letting him eat this kind of food, he felt that he would rather be hungry.
Now, when he saw the snake in Qian Li's hands, he felt his legs trembling.
This was because those two snakes were not dead yet. Qian Li had only pinched a spot seven inches between them, and their tails were still tightly entwined on Qian Li's arms, continuously tightening.
"Is that so?"
Qian Li pursed her lips, did not say anything else, and instead lightly moved her finger, only to see that the snake had died just like that.
The thing that ordinary women were most afraid of, in the hands of Qian Li, was something that they could not resist at all.
Qian Li placed one of them to the side temporarily and turned it over with her finger. She then took out her dagger and cut a hole in the snake's stomach, and quickly dealt with the other one, placing the other one on the fire and roasting it before going to deal with the other one.
Gong Jue watched in fear, he stared straight at Qian Li's hands, he could not help but swallow his saliva, and then, he opened his mouth to ask.
"What if the snake is poisoned?"
"Most poisonous snakes are gorgeous in color. As for this one, it looks silly. How does it look like it's poisonous?"
Hearing that, Gong Jue became even more frightened by Qian Li, "You don't even know what kind of snake it is, yet you dare to eat it?"
Qian Li felt that it had been a long time since she had been this relaxed. Ever since her rebirth, her daily life had been like living with her neck on a blade.
Other than being able to smile occasionally when he was with the butler, if it was during normal times, he would have almost forgotten what it was like to be truly relaxed and happy.
However, the few days after she fell down, she seemed to be very happy.
In front of Gong Jue, she seemed to really be able to be carefree.
"Don't worry, it won't be poisonous. Although I don't know how they got in, I do know that they have another name, the cauliflower snake. This kind of snake's head is slightly green, and its body is a mix of black and white. "Not only is it delicious, it is also very good for the body. In our current condition, we really need it."
But, Qian Li's explanation did not make Gong Jue feel relieved.
Snake …
He wouldn't eat it even if it killed him. It was terrifying just by looking at it.
However, when the snake was about to be roasted, an extremely enchanting fragrance pervaded the entire place, because Qian Li had not left even after finding something to eat. When Gong Jue, who disagreed with his words, thought that he would not be bothered to sleep, but would instead be woken up by this extremely unique fragrance.
He opened his eyes and saw Qian Li happily roasting the meat, he was extremely curious.
"Qian Li. "This …"
"Are you awake?" I was planning to call for you when I was completely fine, but since you're awake, don't sleep anymore.
It was impossible to fall asleep under such fragrance.
The milky-white flesh had turned golden and was still oily on the surface. It looked like saliva was about to come out of its mouth.
Although he didn't know how many days had passed, he really felt like he hadn't eaten in a long, long time.
At this moment, the taste buds had been opened and couldn't be closed no matter what.
Even his previously unhungry stomach was now growling from the food in front of him.
Qian Li heard it, and looking at his red face she exposed it without any mercy, "What, hungry?"
Gong Jue wanted to shake his head, but his head still nodded obediently.
Qian Li tasted it and nodded in satisfaction, "Mn, that's enough, eat quickly." With that said, she extended her hand out and took out a piece to give to Gong Jue.
