Yan Liqiang woke up, opened his eyes, and found himself lying on a riverbank mudflat, his body covered with fine sand and gravel. Further away were towering mountains and dense forests.
There was already a hint of light in the sky above, and the clear chirping of birds echoed in the canyon. From time to time, the cries of monkeys could be heard, making this place even more quiet.
This is a large canyon. The rushing river made two sharp turns here, leaving a huge "S"-shaped bend in the canyon. It was this huge "S"-shaped bend that tamed the river water rushing like a mad bull, and it suddenly became much calmer when leaving the bend. Yan Liqiang's current position is the second turn of this "S"-shaped bend. Because the river water washed out a large river beach here, Yan Liqiang had the opportunity to find an opportunity to bring the woman ashore with an umbrella.
Thinking of the three women, Yan Liqiang realized that he felt a little heavy. Turning around, he saw Concubine Rui pressing on him, with her hands tightly hugging his neck. The situation was urgent and they were in the water. Yan Liqiang only had two hands, but he had to save three women, so he had no choice but to untie the belt of Concubine Rui's long skirt and tied Concubine Duan to himself face to face in the posture of an adult carrying a child. Only then could he free up his two hands to save Concubine Duan and Concubine Yi.
Concubine Rui usually doesn't look very strong, but last night, this woman's arms were tightly wrapped around Yan Liqiang's neck in the water. If Yan Liqiang hadn't been accustomed to holding his breath in the water when practicing shaking the big gun, to be honest, he might have been almost suffocated by this woman last night.
His and Concubine Rui's clothes had already been soaked. Concubine Rui's beautiful body was pressed tightly against Yan Liqiang's. Even without deliberately probing, Yan Liqiang could feel the rhythmic heartbeat coming from Concubine Rui's chest through just two layers of clothes.
When he turned his head to look again, he saw Concubine Duan and Concubine Yi lying on his left and right sides. He had been holding one in each hand last night and another was hanging on his body. He didn't know how far he was washed by the river. In the end, he dragged the three women to the shore.
He reached out and touched the necks of Concubine Duan and Concubine Yi, and found that their pulses were still beating and they were still alive. Yan Liqiang breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan Liqiang's injuries had never been fully healed, especially last night when he jumped into the mountain stream to catch the fallen four-wheeled carriage, which made Yan Liqiang's injuries even worse. Later, he struggled in the turbulent river for an unknown amount of time to save the three women. The danger and difficulty of it were hard to describe in words. Thinking that he could still rescue the three women from the carriage under such circumstances, Yan Liqiang admired himself a little.
After waking up, Yan Liqiang closed his eyes and felt the situation inside his body. He found that his whole body was sore at this moment. It was as if his whole body was hollowed out after waking up, and he didn't even have much strength in his hands.
Yan Liqiang was panting heavily. He lay quietly for a while to let his body recover some strength. Then he groped for Concubine Rui's belt with his hand, trying to untie the belt that bound the two of them.
The knot of the belt was just above Concubine Rui's hips, close to her waist. The situation was urgent last night, and they were in water, so Yan Liqiang used Concubine Rui's belt to tie himself and Concubine Rui tightly without thinking. Now that Concubine Rui's belt was soaked in water, the two knots on the ribbon became even tighter. Yan Liqiang didn't have much strength in his hands now, and his fingers felt a little weak when he exerted force. He tried to untie the two knots, but to no avail.
All of a sudden, Yan Liqiang was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead.
Since his hands couldn't be untied for the time being, he could only use something to cut them open. Yan Liqiang touched his waist, but found that the black-scale sword he carried with him had disappeared long ago, as if it had fallen into the water when he was going ashore just now.
Yan Liqiang was trying to untie his belt. At this moment, Concubine Rui, who was tied up with Yan Liqiang, slowly opened her eyes and woke up.
As soon as Concubine Rui opened her eyes, she found that she and Yan Liqiang were tied together face to face, face to face, body to body. She pressed Yan Liqiang under her body, and Yan Liqiang's hands were groping around her waist. For a moment, Concubine Rui felt dizzy and her cheeks became hot. Could it be that Lord Yan wanted to... This thought almost made Concubine Rui scream out loud...
However, Concubine Rui did not panic, nor did she scream like a little girl who had never seen the world, because as soon as she woke up, she remembered the thrilling scene of Yan Liqiang saving her last night. Although they were in the water later, when Yan Liqiang pulled her out of the carriage, untied her belt and tied her up, Concubine Rui was also sober at the time and knew that Yan Liqiang was saving her. As for later in the water, Concubine Rui still remembered that when she couldn't breathe and was about to suffocate, Yan Liqiang used his mouth to breathe her many breaths, which allowed her to survive. After slowly calming down, Concubine Rui found that the hand that Yan Liqiang moved on her waist was not what she thought, but he was trying to untie the belt that tied the two people...
When Concubine Rui woke up, she was extremely embarrassed and had no idea how to face such a situation. She simply continued to pretend to be unconscious and let Yan Liqiang untie her belt. However, the picture in her mind at this time was the scene in the mountain hot spring that day. That day, Yan Liqiang was hiding behind Concubine Rong, and the two of them should have been so tightly pressed together underwater. She didn't expect that it would be her turn today.
Yan Liqiang continued to fiddle with Concubine Rui's belt. At first, he didn't notice that Concubine Rui had woken up, but slowly, feeling her cheeks slowly starting to get hot, Yan Liqiang knew that Concubine Rui had woken up. However, since Concubine Rui pretended not to wake up, he also pretended not to know that Concubine Rui had woken up. The current scene was nothing when rescuing people, but when they woke up and were tied up face to face with eyes wide open, that would be very embarrassing.
After a while, Yan Liqiang's strength recovered a little, and the strength in his hands also increased a lot, but the two knots of the belt he tied in the water were too tight and could not be untied at all. The belt was made of layers of silk ribbons pressed together, and it was exquisite and strong. It was estimated that it would have no problem pulling a carriage. If Yan Liqiang's physical strength recovered completely, he might be able to tear it apart with brute force. But now, Yan Liqiang's body was still recovering, and he couldn't tear it apart at all.
Damn it, I was able to fly and catch the carriage last night, but now I can't even untie the belt tied around my body. Yan Liqiang smiled bitterly and said to himself, is this a tiger in trouble? What should I do
Yan Liqiang, lying on the ground, looked around. When he saw a pile of stones standing by the river not far away, his eyes finally lit up. He had an idea.
But before going there, you have to wake up Concubine Rui first.
"Ahem, Concubine Rui, are you awake?" Yan Liqiang leaned close to Concubine Rui's ear and called out.
Concubine Rui had no choice but to wake up, open her eyes, and whisper in Yan Liqiang's ear, "Master Yan, this... this belt can't be untied?"
"Yes, this belt was tied too tightly in the water last night. It can't be untied immediately after being soaked in water. I'm still trying to find a way. Please forgive me for my rudeness last night..."
"Last night, Lord Yan saved my life. I took the initiative in an emergency. The situation was urgent at the time. I didn't even have time to thank Lord Yan, so how could I blame him!" Concubine Rui said softly, "I wonder what Lord Yan is going to do now?"
"I don't have any sharp weapons with me now. There are a few jagged boulders over there. I want to go over there first and use the edges of the boulders to grind the belt open. It's not easy for two people to walk together. I'll need your cooperation later. I'll carry you over there. Let me tell you first!"
Concubine Rui's face became even hotter, and her voice suddenly became smaller, like a mosquito, "There is no other way at the moment, Lord Yan, please let go!"
"Then please forgive my rudeness, Your Majesty!" Yan Liqiang said, and he turned over, changed direction, and pressed Concubine Rui under him. Concubine Rui's face was as red as the morning glow, her eyes were closed, she turned her head and tilted her face. She was extremely embarrassed and did not dare to look at Yan Liqiang.
Looking at Concubine Rui's charming, mature and shy face, Yan Liqiang felt like his throat was about to smoke, "My queen, put your arms around my neck and wrap your legs around my waist, I'm getting up!"
"Hmm!" Concubine Rui hummed softly and did as she was told. As soon as Concubine Rui wrapped her legs around Yan Liqiang's waist, her whole body became hot and her entire body was trembling slightly. This posture was really too ambiguous.
The next second, Yan Liqiang climbed up. Concubine Rui was still hanging tightly on Yan Liqiang, with her hands tightly around Yan Liqiang's neck and a pair of plump long legs wrapped around Yan Liqiang's waist. Yan Liqiang hugged Concubine Rui with both hands, and then walked towards the rocks not far away step by step.
When they arrived at the side of the huge rocks, Yan Liqiang found an angular one behind the rocks, then leaned over, put Concubine Rui's back close to the edge of the rock, and pulled the belt behind Concubine Rui against the edge of the rock with his hands.
"My lady, don't move. Try to straighten your waist and back and stay close to me for a while. The sharp edges of the stones behind you can scratch you. Be careful not to scratch your back. I'll take care of it!"
"Hmm!" Concubine Rui still responded in a low voice with her eyes closed.
Seeing that Concubine Rui was motionless, Yan Liqiang began to move up and down, trying to use the edges of the boulder to break the belt...
Yan Liqiang was grinding his belt and had just broken half of it when Concubine Duan and Concubine Yi woke up slowly and opened their eyes almost at the same time.
Concubine Duan, who had just woken up, heard some noise not far away. She turned her head and her eyes widened. She saw Yan Liqiang and Concubine Rui with their upper bodies and one side exposed behind a huge rock not far away. Concubine Rui was hugging Yan Liqiang tightly, her face flushed. Yan Liqiang seemed to be hugging Concubine Rui as well, with his head slightly lowered, and his whole body moving up and down...
The scene was simply indescribable!
Concubine Duan could hardly believe her eyes!
Then Yan Liqiang's voice came at this time, "My queen, this is a bit tight. I may have to linger for a while. My queen, can you still hold on? How about taking a rest?"
Concubine Rui's voice also came intermittently, "Master Yan... take your time... no need to stop... I can hold on!"
…
Yan Liqiang continued to move, rubbing the belt. After a few minutes, the belt finally broke, and the restraint between the two people loosened. Concubine Rui let out a cry and quickly slid down from Yan Liqiang's body. Yan Liqiang also quickly let go of his hand.
Finally, when Yan Liqiang walked out from behind the huge rocks, he saw that Concubine Duan and Concubine Yi had already sat up. Their faces were flushed and they were looking at him with an indescribable look.
Yan Liqiang was also confused. He didn't expect that Concubine Duan and Concubine Yi had already woken up. He was too exhausted physically and mentally just now and didn't notice that Concubine Duan and Concubine Yi had woken up. Looking at the expressions on the faces of these two women, it seemed that they saw something and misunderstood. Damn, how can I explain this? I didn't do anything...
Before Yan Liqiang could speak, Concubine Rui came out from behind the huge rock, adjusting her belt. Seeing the eyes of Concubine Duan and Concubine Yi, Concubine Rui was also stunned...
