The tunnel is very long and very quiet. You can almost hear the breathing of the two of them. Her soft little hand is stuffed into his palm, with a hint of coolness.
Mo Hanqing held her hand and walked forward for who knows how long, but the surrounding scenery was still the same, without any change.
Ye Qiqi followed him silently for a long time, and finally couldn't help but call him in a low voice: "Young Master..."
"Huh?" Mo Hanqing responded coolly, still looking straight ahead.
"Master, do you...do you feel...that we have been going around in circles in the same place??" Ye Qiqi's voice was a little nervous, and there was a trace of sweat in her little hands.
Mo Hanqing's footsteps that had been walking forward suddenly stopped.
He turned his head and looked at Ye Qiqi, who was standing next to him. He raised his delicate eyebrows slightly and said with a hint of doubt in his voice: "Going around in a circle??"
"That's it... that..." Ye Qiqi stretched out her hand and tugged on his sleeve, gesturing for him to look towards the ground.
Under the dim light, there was a slight depression on the dark soil ground.
If you don't observe carefully, you won't be able to tell the difference between this depression and other places.
"This is..." Mo Hanqing frowned and stared at the depression for a long time without speaking.
"This is where we fell just now..." Ye Qiqi blinked, looked at Mo Hanqing's handsome face, and said in a small voice: "You hit me before, and when I fell to the ground, A small hole came out... "
Mo Hanqing was silent for a moment, and then asked Ye Qiqi: "How many times have we passed by here?"
"This is the third time." Ye Qiqi held his robe and did not let go, whispering: "When I passed by here just now, I thought I was dazzled, but when I passed by again this time, I specially After taking a look, you see, there is a small circle of marks made by my bracelet."
As expected, the depression on the ground had a circle of small, thin marks. It looked like it was exactly where her wrist landed when she fell.
Ye Qiqi's expression gradually cooled down as she watched him, but she remained silent for a long time. Finally, she couldn't help but ask, "Master... can we... not find the way out?"
Mo Hanqing turned to look at her. Her small cheeks were full of worry, and her big black and white eyes looked at her watery, like a lost puppy.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the irritability in his heart, and said calmly: "No."
Perhaps his calm and cold tone gave Ye Qiqi a glimmer of hope. She quickly reached out and rubbed her eyes, then raised her head, smiled brightly at him and said, "Then let's look carefully."
"Um."
Mo Hanqing nodded, looking at her smiling face, he couldn't help but reached out and rubbed her head to give her some comfort.
Ever since he discovered that the two of them had been walking the same path, Mo Hanqing focused his attention on the walls of this tunnel.
Ye Qiqi followed him, imitating his example, stretching out her little hand to knock a few times here and a few times there, and finally, she put her head up to listen carefully.
After a long time, Mo Hanqing suddenly shouted to her: "Ye Qiqi, come here."
