If this allowed Xuanyuan Mo to ascertain her intentions, and allowed her to set Xuanyuan Mo at ease, biting down on it a few more times would be fine as well.
She suddenly realized that this feeling was actually quite good.
It was just like how she was feeling right now. Although her mouth was hurting, she was actually feeling extremely happy in her heart.
There was no longer any need for words and promises. Li Ruo already understood Xuanyuan Mo's intentions. He loved her, and even loved her more than she loved him.
The surrounding Dragon Team members felt extremely awkward. They all turned around, but they couldn't help but quietly watch from the sidelines.
Perhaps it was initially to prove that Liru was truly by his side, unharmed, but as he kissed her, he unconsciously became attracted to her. Xuanyuan Mo's rough movements gradually turned into one of love and love.
Li Ruo took a peek at her surroundings, then decided to just close her eyes and enjoy.
Previously, there was a saying that was especially popular. Since she couldn't reject it, then she might as well try to enjoy it. Although this single sentence was ambiguous, she thought, perhaps now, they could try …
Those who were further away could peek at them openly, while Cheng Ziheng, who was beside them, suffered greatly. Not to mention that he was not young anymore, this kind of matter was unavoidably disgraceful in his eyes. He covered his eyes unnaturally, and really wanted to exclaim at the decline of the world.
However, even though Xuanyuan Mo and Li Ruo were so engrossed in their kiss, he did not dare to disturb them.
He turned around, wanting to escape from such a torturous distance. However, he was worried that I might accidentally slip away after kissing Xuanyuan Mo too much …
After thinking for a long time, Cheng Ziheng finally thought of the method he thought was the best. He untied the rope on himself, and with a throw, he firmly tied Li Ruo and Xuanyuan Mo.
The two who were in the midst of a deep and emotional kiss were suddenly jolted awake. They looked at the ropes surrounding the two of them, and they turned pale with fright.
"Sorry, boss, I didn't mean to interrupt you guys!" Cheng Ziheng looked embarrassed, but he did not want to think about it. It would be better if he did not explain himself. This explanation not only made him blush, but also made the two main characters of the incident feel ashamed.
"Your subordinate doesn't know how to deal with this kind of thing, but I'm afraid that the leader and the general might forget their feelings and accidentally fall down. For your safety, I came up with this plan …" He hesitated, his words even more shaky than his feet.
When these words were spoken, the crowd burst into suppressed laughter.
However, the protagonist of the incident had a completely dark expression on his face.
"Advisor Cheng!" Liru lowered her voice to a very quiet tone, as if it was the feeling of before the storm.
"Boss!" Cheng Ziheng complained in his heart, who could explain to him that he really did not do it on purpose?
"Have you done the things I asked you to do?"
"It's about time!" Cheng Ziheng lowered his head, trying his best to ignore Liruo's resentful gaze, but he realized that he couldn't ignore her at all. However, he didn't lie. Although the truth of the matter was as it was, the relation between the time of death and the state of mind was clearly investigated.
"Very good!" Liru sneered and looked at the person in front of him who had stopped because of this incident, indicating that he could continue.
"Tell me about it!"
"This subordinate found out that those who had been in contact with them were more or less related to the prefecture lord. Perhaps they were his attendants, but one of them was the original steward, and the other one was a cousin …"
Liruo listened attentively as she moved forward cautiously. Cheng Ziheng was also talking endlessly about the things he had investigated today. The things that happened just now seemed to be as if they had been flipped over.
However, General Li felt that this was only the beginning. Cheng Ziheng was going to be in for a ride of misfortune.
Although he didn't really know the Boss, he had grown up with the General and knew him a little.
Although he appeared to be a very gentle person on the surface, he was actually a very crafty person. However, he could still understand. How gentle could someone who could lead hundreds of thousands of soldiers possibly be?
He hadn't thought that he would actually be so far away from the place where he could hear the sound of the people outside. Seeing that the things in everyone's hands were about to run out, and he still couldn't see anyone, everyone's emotions fluctuated, but they were all calm people, so although their faces were tired, they didn't complain at all.
Liru stopped and looked at it carefully, but after a long time, she still couldn't see what was wrong with it. However, her instincts told her that it was wrong to continue walking like this.
She was only good at planning, but in reality, her ability to determine which direction was the most fatal weakness.
"No, wait!" Xuanyuan Mo had been silent the entire way, and it was obvious that he had discovered the problem as well. He then ordered the people in front of him to stop.
"What's the problem?" If Li Jun couldn't understand, she could only ask.
"We may have taken the wrong path!" Xuanyuan Mo said in a low voice.
"Master, your subordinate has asked around. This is the only way in!" General Li did not understand, but he told him the information he had gathered.
"No one said that your investigation was wrong!" When Xuanyuan Mo and I came here to inspect this place in the morning, we could faintly hear the laughter of the people inside. According to my estimations, that sound should not be more than a kilometer away from us, but today, we were almost five miles away, and we still could not see any village or people. This is obviously not right! In fact, not only was there no one, but not even a single living animal could be seen.
"That's right, this is what I find strange as well!" Xuanyuan Mo's eyes swept across the surroundings seriously as he frowned slightly.
He felt that they had already fallen into a quagmire and could not find their way out.
Bewildering Pool?
His eyes lit up as he felt enlightened. Suddenly, he had an idea.
"I got it!" Xuanyuan Mo's smile was like a warm sun, giving everyone endless hope.
"Before, we were very sure that we heard the voices of the people inside, and we could also tell that they weren't too far away from the exit. Then, does that mean they don't actually live in such a remote place? This road is just built to confuse the crowd?"
"That's right, I think the same!" She had already thought about it earlier, but she just didn't understand why they would do that.
"Think about it, if they were living at the exit while we were chasing them, that would mean that we used the wrong method to find the wrong place from the very beginning!"
"En!" Li Ruo thought for a while, then slowly nodded her head.
"What do you mean?" After a moment, Li Ruo raised her head, her eyes shining with a moving light. She seemed to have understood something.
"As you wish!" Li Ruo's gaze was simply too captivating, and Xuanyuan Mo would always drool at the sight of her. Most importantly, their bodies had been in contact lately, so it was easy for his thoughts to go astray.
Right now, he only wanted to build a love nest with Li Ruo after completing his mission, so he was much more open-minded.
After thinking it over, he gave the order for the group to return back on their path, and Xuanyuan Mo's footsteps unconsciously quickened.
Li Ruo watched in confusion. Why did she suddenly feel like Xuanyuan Mo had turned into an impatient person? But why?
In reality, Xuanyuan Mo was already exhausted, so it would be inconvenient for him to carry her. However, he could not bear to leave Ruo Ruo and continue pulling on the rope, so he was unwilling to let go.
At this moment, it wasn't the time to be thinking about such details. The group quickly returned.
He found the road to the mountain not far from the entrance.
"As expected!" Xuanyuan Mo's face lit up as he looked Li Ruo in the eye. "I didn't understand why we would walk so far before, but instead felt that the further we walk, the more distant we would be. So that's how it is!"
"General, this subordinate does not understand!" It was Cheng Ziheng who asked this question.
"Did you see that?" Xuanyuan Mo looked down from above and pointed at a gap in the cliff opposite. He continued, "The route we took earlier was actually circling around the correct location. If this general isn't mistaken, the real entrance is over there!" This was precisely the reason why Xuanyuan Mo had suddenly thought of this possibility just as he was thinking of the maze.
Fortunately, his judgement was correct.
"I'm very curious about the people living inside. How could they be so smart?" Li Ruo smiled, it didn't matter if they were weird or not, the people inside were smart, there were only two reasons why they could still laugh and talk after the mountain road was sealed. First, they had the method to get out. There was no need to worry at all. Secondly, they did not want to come out!
"I'm curious too!" Xuanyuan Mo retracted his gaze and took the arrow from Cheng Ziheng's hand. Carefully twining the rope around the arrow, he used all his strength to shoot it out in the opposite direction.
The arrowhead made a graceful turn in the air before quickly shooting toward the rocks on the opposite side of the bridge. Xuanyuan Mo pulled the rope with all his might and after confirming that the rope was secure, he instructed a few more archers to continue shooting in the opposite direction.
Everyone followed his example and learned quite well. Li Ruo nodded to herself. It seemed that there were still many decent martial arts left in the ancient times for her to learn.
"Xuanyuan Mo, I'll go over myself this time!" If Li Li was worried that Xuanyuan Mo did not have any extra strength and even if he followed the ropes, it was likely that he would directly crash into the cliff after everyone had already passed. She had a way so she wanted to personally demonstrate it.
"My stamina has been restored!" Xuanyuan Mo smiled. He had been circulating his cultivation technique the entire way back. Now that he had fully recovered his qinggong and inner force, if Liru were to stop when the time came, he would have no way of stopping.
Then, he could just perform Qing Gong and carry Li Ruo over to the other side of the rope.
Although Liru was surprised, she did not change her original plan.
"Not everyone's Qing Gong is as good as you!" She said, "I've been bringing the rest of you in for a few months. They are good in every aspect, but their qinggong is not considered outstanding. If they were to rush over and crash into the opposite cliff when the time comes, it would not be worth it!" Xuanyuan Mo frowned and did not respond, because what Li Ruo said was reasonable.
