Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao hurried forward and found another soldier lying on the ground with flames on his body.
This place is really getting more and more dangerous. It can even burn people to death.
Yes, this time the fire was caused by the huge light emitted by a soldier who was burned to death.
"Those who have torches, hold on to them and make sure they don't drop them on the ground."
The person holding the torch had his hands shaking several times, which meant that the person holding the torch was in danger of his life.
After the soldiers moved the burned man rolling on the ground a little further away, they decided to continue their journey.
I don’t know how long I walked in the cave, but I finally saw a stream.
There are still fish swimming in the stream. Qian Jiujiu and others haven't eaten for a long time, so they check to see if the fish in the water are poisonous.
It is edible, so everyone started to go into the water to catch fish.
Some people were fishing, while others were starting a fire. The materials for the fire were hard to find, but luckily there were some dry branches by the stream that could be picked up and used.
After a hearty meal, Qian Jiujiu, Bei Bei and others sat together and asked where to go next.
After the village chief took out the map, everyone found that they had already lost their way in the cave.
This map was of no use as a reference. The village chief looked at Qian Jiujiu and the others with a tearful face and asked, "What should we do now?"
These people have grown up in darkness since childhood, and their biggest experience is that people from outside keep coming in and being eliminated by them.
If we really talk about fighting, they have no experience at all.
Qian Jiujiu looked at the village chief in front of him with some curiosity: "Village chief, how long does it take for someone to come and cause trouble in your village?"
The mechanisms behind it are not something that ordinary people can crack.
The village chief was a little puzzled as to why Qian Jiujiu asked such a question, but he still said, "No, come to think of it, you are the first group of people who came to cause trouble that I have ever met in my life!"
"Do you think that just because we have so many puppets, people will often come to cause trouble for us?"
"No, those puppets were made based on our own imagination and using materials unique to the village."
"When I saw you this time, I thought you had finally arrived with some materials for making puppets!"
Beibei was speechless after hearing this. They were really a bunch of poor little people who had never seen a human being. She actually thought that these people were cruel!
It seems that those hands are really powerful and skillful, they can actually make such a lifelike person.
After Beibei finished sighing, he looked at his mother again: "So, mother, what should we do next?"
There didn't seem to be any good solution at the moment, Qian Jiujiu raised his eyebrows and said, "Let's follow this stream. With so many of us, we can always find a way out."
Walking along the stream, at least there is no shortage of food, which is pretty good.
After making the decision, a group of people began to walk upstream along the stream, preparing to find where the stream appeared.
This water is either groundwater or water flowing from the ground, so we can only take a chance.
Fortunately, Qian Jiujiu's luck has always been good. After walking for a day and a night, he finally found the source of the stream.
It was indeed water seeping from the ground. Looking at the source, Qian Jiujiu raised his eyebrows and instructed the people following behind him.
"Okay, let's start digging from here."
Digging a passage here would open up the mountains on both sides. After opening up, it would be easier to find someone to dig.
The gems, agates, and gold here are all not to be missed.
As for the Tiangong clan, after they leave, they have to find a place to settle down.
While everyone was digging, Qian Jiujiu found the village chief and said, "Village chief, I have something to discuss with you."
The village chief also knew that he would be able to leave soon. Now they were like someone else's prey and could only look at Jiang Hu with a wronged look on their faces.
He turned to look at Qian Jiujiu again: "What do you want to discuss with me?"
Qian Jiujiu looked at the village chief's expression, as if he was a bad person, and was suddenly speechless.
"Why do you look like that? I'm doing this for your own good. After you leave, you can't call Jiang Hu the king anymore."
"Otherwise, he will be dealt with for treason."
"If you really want to follow her, there is a good way. That is to let him be your clan leader. From now on, you can call him clan leader when you see him."
"You can't call me king anymore, understand?"
Mu Yexiao also spoke up: "My wife is right about this matter. After we get out, someone will tell you about the situation outside."
The village chief thought it was not a bad idea, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
"I will tell the people in our village that from now on, we should call you tribe leader instead of king. Tribal leader, you won't abandon us, will you?"
Jiang Hu's memory has not recovered yet! How could he recognize these people? He just kept sticking to Beibei.
"Beibei, you won't abandon them, will you?"
Beibei was speechless when he saw that Jiang Hu always asked for his opinion on everything he did.
However, considering that these people are so skillful, it would still be useful to keep them. I just don't know how to settle them.
Well, find a place and give them a piece of land, and they can settle down. The worst that can happen is that they have to pay a little more money.
It's not like she has no money anyway.
"I won't abandon them, don't worry. When we get out, I'll find a place to settle them down, don't worry."
Jiang Hu looked at the village chief and said, "You heard me, I won't abandon you. You can rest assured now."
The village chief was speechless. He was asking Jiang Hu, not Beibei, but Jiang Hu now looked like Beibei's follower.
The tunnel over there was dug, luckily because there was water, it was easier to dig. After digging for most of the day, they finally saw sunlight coming in.
The guard happily went to find Qian Jiujiu and the others and reported: "My Lord, Princess, we have uncovered it."
After digging through, Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other, walked over and looked at the place where they had dug out. There was a big hole.
"Keep digging until everyone can get out."
After seeing the light, everyone became more excited and soon dug out a big hole.
"You can go out now."
Several guards went out to explore the way first. There was no danger, but they didn't know which mountain was outside and it looked deserted.
Leave two people outside to keep guard, and the remaining two go back to report.
"Your Majesty, Princess, you can go out now. There is no danger outside."
Hearing that there was no danger, Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao stood up and said, "Get ready to go out."
Soon everyone headed outside, the guards first, followed by the soldiers.
After everyone else had gone out, it was the turn of the Tiangong clan to go out. Looking at the bright light outside, it was a light they had never seen in their lives.
It looks completely different from the lighting.
The village chief stood at the entrance of the cave and looked outside tentatively. The others couldn't help but rushed out.
"We finally got out."
But when it came into contact with the sunlight, I suddenly felt a sharp pain on my skin and I screamed in pain instantly.
“Ah… It hurts. It hurts.”
There was more than one scream. All the Tiangong people who came out were screaming.
Beibei and Jiang Hu were displeased, so they stepped forward and dragged all the people from the Tiangong clan in.
A member of the Tiangong clan came in, stretched out his arm, and when he took it out for a look, he found that it had begun to fester.
Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao heard the screams and came over to check the situation: "What happened?"
Beibei looked at the wounds and blinked: "Mom, it seems that people from the Tiangong clan cannot see the sun."
"You see, their skin starts to ulcerate when they are exposed to the sun."
Qian Jiujiu frowned and began to think about this situation. These people have never been exposed to sunlight since they were born.
The body has already changed, so it is normal that it cannot see the light.
It seems that these people can only live in the underground palace and cannot go out to bask in the sun. Tsk tsk, so pitiful.
The members of the Tiangong clan were all staring at the sunlight outside in a daze. They really could not live in the sunlight for the rest of their lives.
This realization made them feel very uncomfortable, because the cave entrance was clearly right in front of them and they had already come out.
But I can't leave the confinement of my body and can't live in the sun. What's the point of coming out
The village chief looked at everyone's listless appearance and could only sigh: "Perhaps we are luckier than our ancestors."
"From birth to death, they have never seen the sun. At least we can see the sun."
"It's just that I can't touch it, but I can see it, which is good enough."
Hearing this, Beibei suddenly felt sad for these people, but these physical problems were the result of decades or even hundreds of years of their suffering.
There was no way to improve the situation, so Jiang Hu spoke out to comfort these people.
"Don't be so desperate, maybe the child you give birth to will be able to bask in the sun in the future!"
"Even if it's for the sake of future generations, we should come out instead of living in a village surrounded by fog."
"Besides, you haven't eaten rice yet, right? You can eat outside food every day from now on."
"Life is much richer than in your village. Now there is sunshine. If you can't go out during the day, you can go out at night."
“You can also feel this beautiful world.”
Beibei looked at Jiang Hu. It turned out that this man was really good at comforting people.
Looking at the weather outside and estimating the time, it should be around two or three in the afternoon, when the sun is the brightest.
No wonder, Qian Jiujiu had no intention of comforting these people.
I sent the guards out to check out the exact location of this place. We'll tell you when they come back after investigating.
As for the soldiers, they began to set up camp outside and enjoy the sunshine.
After staying in the dark for a long time, it feels so nice to suddenly see the sun.
