Chapter 301, shoulder injury

Jing Shirong followed closely behind, and the two looked for the entrance of the cave together, but found nothing.

 They were all injured on their shoulders, and their physical strength was gradually exhausted.

Seeing that he couldn't find the exit after searching around, Jing Shirong could only ask Qi Yuanming to stop.

 “Don’t look for it yet, save your energy for now.”

Qi Yuanming knew that his life was at stake, so he had no choice but to stop.

 “Mom, it’s so unlucky. You’re trapped here without even having a full meal.”

  I should have brought more food with me.

 Speaking of food, the two of them brought some beef jerky and meatloaf in their pockets.

 Everyone who goes out carries sparks with them, but it is pitch dark in this cave, and I don’t know if there is anything that can be burned.

Jing Shirong raised the flame high and asked Qi Yuanming to look around to see if there were any dead leaves or branches that could be burned.

Qi Yuanming is tall. He took a look around and saw nothing.

 It was not just once or twice that they came out to run errands for the emperor, but this was the first time they were trapped in a tunnel.

 Fortunately, the two of them were in a good mood, so they just sat there and ate to conserve their energy.

Qi Yuanming said while eating meat cakes, "I don't know if this tunnel leads to the imperial mausoleum, why don't we go in and give it a try?"

Jing Shirong took a bite of the pancake and said with sharp black eyes, "No, it's safer for us to go back the way we came."

The entrances and exits of the palace underneath the imperial mausoleum are sealed.

You will run out of energy and walk in later. If you encounter the door of death, you will not be able to get out.

 In addition, they don’t have much food with them and can only last for two or three days. It is best to return the same way, at least the journey back will be shorter.

 It’s just that the whole road is blocked by falling rocks, which is the most troublesome.

Qi Yuanming felt strong after eating the meatloaf. "It's okay. If we encounter rocks, we'll dig them out. We can always dig them out."

No matter what happens, their subordinates will definitely come out to look for them as long as they don't get any news from them tonight.

Jing Shirong hummed, "Let's dig it out then. Go out first, and then go back to Beijing to report the matter. That's pretty much it."

Since the two people who created the rumors were beaten to death, there is no need to take them back to Beijing.

The emperor will definitely send the Zhao and Zhou families to take care of the remaining finishing work, and then the credit will definitely fall on those two families again.

Qi Yuanming felt quite unhappy when he thought about this.

“If something happens, let us rush to the front, and wait until we are rewarded based on our merits, then we will be the masters of the family. It’s so **** unpleasant.”

He and Jing Shirong were obviously responsible for the money and effort, but every time the emperor asked the Zhao and Zhou families to finish the work.

Those who don’t know better think that these cases were solved by the Zhao and Zhou families.

Jing Shirong shrugged and said it didn't matter.

 What the emperor is thinking can be known by a discerning person at a glance. It is understandable that he wants to support the Zhao and Zhou families and prevent the Jingqi family from becoming dominant.

 “The first one was shot, we suffer a little loss now, maybe we won’t be able to get it back in the future.”

 Emperors have been suspicious since ancient times. Since the emperor is afraid that they will become dominant, it is better for them to keep a low profile.

No matter where I am in Beijing or where I am transferred in the future, as long as the whole family is safe and sound, it will be fine.

Qi Yuanming was still unhappy, “Isn’t it that I’m working so hard just to make my parents’ life easier?”

As a result, he worked so hard and the emperor didn't buy their favor. Instead, he gave the majority of the money to Zhao and Zhou's family. Thinking about it made him angry.

"Your Majesty, this makes us work for the Zhao and Zhou families. We are the ones who are dirty and tired, and our good reputation is given to them."

Jing Shirong knew that he was aggrieved and comforted him, "There are no absolutes in anything. There are advantages to not being in the limelight. You will know in the future."

Seeing his mysterious look, Qi Yuanming snorted, "You scholars just love to quibble and are not honest at all."

Jing Shirong couldn't help but sneered when he saw how angry he was, and actually smiled.

"You, you, you have a good temper, no girl can stand you in the future."

Qi Yuanming was not happy, "What's wrong with me? I'm so mighty and majestic, and some girls like it."

I remember when he went to the grassland to gallop horses, and many girls liked it. Jing Shirong also laughed when he heard this.

“Okay, stop talking nonsense and search those two people to see if they have a map.”

Qi Yuanming just said, "I understand."

 He went to look for clues on those two people, and sure enough he found a map of the imperial tomb.

 Originally, the two people wanted to find the entrance to the imperial mausoleum and thereby destroy the interior of the imperial mausoleum.

However, the two of them were not very smart, and they were stoned to death before they could find the entrance.

Qi Yuanming looked at the map before finding the exit they wanted to go out.

But the exit was quite far away from them, and it was quite difficult to walk to the exit from this place full of falling rocks.

Especially since both of them had injuries on their shoulders, it would be difficult to keep pushing the big rocks out.

Those stones looked like they weighed over a hundred kilograms, and they were blocking the road one by one. It was really a headache.

Qi Yuanming took the lead and pushed the stone, but it couldn't move.

Because his shoulder hurt when he pushed it, and there were stones on top of the stone, stacked in a row like an Arhat, which made Qi Yuanming stupid. "A Jing, it's over now. We'd better wait for someone to rescue us, otherwise our arm will be broken in a moment."

 He is so handsome and handsome, but he cannot break his arm, otherwise he will not be able to find a wife in the future.

Jing Shirong looked at his cowardly look, shook his head and smiled.

"Check to see if there is a small crack to get out first, otherwise you will suffocate if you stay in it for a long time."

The tunnel is pitch dark, with no sunlight and no fresh air, so you can't stay for too long.

Even if someone comes to rescue them, it will take several days to move all the stones, so they can only save themselves first.

Qi Yuanming understood this and could only stand up and push the stone with Jing Shirong.

Jing Shirong glanced at the blocked road in front of him, raised the flame, and asked Qi Yuanming to push the cracked stone away.

 “You get in first, and I’ll look after you.”

Qi Yuanming hummed and got in through the gap first, followed closely by Jing Shirong.

The two of them tried to make as big a gap as possible to reduce the physical effort of pushing through the rock hole.

 The real problem is when you reach the entrance of the passage.

 Because the entire passage in front is covered with sand.

“Ajing, how can this be good? We don’t have a shovel either.”

  Perhaps those two pieces of black clothes just touched the mechanism, and then the whole road was covered.

 The two of them only had swords on them, so it was not easy to dig a way out.

 But if we wait here to die, the oxygen will only become less and less.

 At that time, it will be more dangerous to pass out due to lack of oxygen.

So the two decided to start digging.

Jing Shirong asked Qi Yuanming, "Use your left hand."

Since your right hand is injured, use your left hand and wait until the critical moment to use your right hand to save energy.

Qi Yuanming hummed, and the two of them worked together in tandem.

Jing Shirong dug first, while Qi Yuanming held up the flames.

When Jing Shirong was tired, Qi Yuanming went forward to dig again.

 But after digging for a long time, I still couldn’t see the exit.

 When they came they knew that this passage was very long, a hundred meters long.

  He felt relaxed when he arrived, but he was injured when he left. It seems he had to dig while waiting for rescue.
