Transmigrated into the original heroine of the period novel who was cannon fodder

Chapter 429: Asking for a sky-high price and paying it back

Lingxi was slow to realize that something was wrong.

She pinched the spiritual body ball that Gu Si released specially to accompany her, and by the way "called" her biological father.

"I, I'm a little sleepy."

Lingxi's situation...

Gu Si and Pei Yanning's expressions changed instantly.

Lingxi's situation has always been uncontrollable to them, and the unknown has always been the most terrifying.

Lingxi hugged Gu Si's spiritual body, the ball, and felt extremely comfortable being wrapped in his spiritual power. She really wanted to sleep.

When Gu Si called for help again, he saw that Lingxi's soul had shrunk into a small ball, but there was nothing abnormal about Lingxi's body.

How could Gu Si and Pei Yanning care about anything else at this moment...

Gu Si carefully used his spiritual body to hold Lingxi in his arms. He really couldn't stay in this underground palace any longer. Not only were there too many people around, but the only "professional" who might know about Lingxi's situation, Xiao Sanzi, was still outside.

The father-in-law and son-in-law looked at each other. Originally, they just wanted to leave in order to find someone to search the underground palace, but now nothing is more important than Lingxi.

Go out first and then talk.

Lao Hei has no objection.

The entrance has been found, the exit is known, and he has an idea of ​​the situation inside, so he can organize people to come down later.

As for the group of people originally in the underground palace...

how to say!

Lao Hei is really not afraid!
Both sides have their own tacit understanding. If possible, they will not be willing to openly conflict with the people above them. When it is not excessive, they can even cooperate. As for excessive...

Under normal circumstances, no one would commit suicide like this.

This group of people is different from the tomb robbers and occasional antiquities dealers we met in cemeteries of all sizes before.

Everyone has their own origins, and they gather here for the elixir of life, for the magic medicine that can revive the dead, for the so-called old immortals, so they will not be too obsessed with the "little melons and two dates" in the underground palace.

Because the focus is different, there is a prerequisite for cooperation.

Of course, if someone really has a mental problem and wants to commit suicide, no one can stop him.

Lao Hei initially chose to hide and blend in with them, that was entirely because he had no idea what the situation was at the time and simply wanted to trick this group of people into doing hard labor for them.

If he comes down again, he won’t be in the same position as now.

and--

This exit is not so easy to find. Lao Hei was thinking that he might be able to take advantage of the other party.

After all, it’s okay to come in and get some stuff, but no one wants to sleep underground forever with these treasures!
Lao Hei wanted to go out, but Xi Moxuan couldn't.

Lin Feiyin is still downstairs.

Xi Moxuan's leg was hit and he couldn't move very well. Lin Feiyin was invited by the "little friends" she met in the maze before, so she followed them to explore the nearby area.

However, Xi Moxuan, who had a mission, could not just leave with Lin Feiyin and leave her in this underground palace.

After thinking about it, the last thing Lao Hei, the uncle, could do before leaving was to leave his dry food, water bottle and other things to Xi Moxuan, and then he followed Pei Yanning away.

Xi Moxuan, who stayed alone and watched them leave, said: "..."
-
When Lingxi woke up, it was already midnight.

There was a sound outside, similar to that of a low-flying airplane. Lingxi was startled and opened her eyes, and was immediately embraced in a warm embrace.

She was stunned for a moment, "Fourth brother?"

She called out subconsciously and rubbed against his arms.

The next moment, feeling the real touch, Lingxi's face was full of smiles.

"I'm fine now!"

He actually came back to his body. Gu Si nodded.

"Are you hungry? You've slept for more than a day."

Lingxi nodded and held the person tightly, not wanting to let go. When she heard the noise outside, her eyes were filled with confusion.

"Dad and Lao Hei have called for help. They are all rushing here from all over the place."

The palace complex below is a treasure trove that can shock the world. Whether it is the intact buildings inside, or the well-preserved cups, plates, bowls, tables, chairs, benches, porcelain ornaments, or even the white jade tiles and stone steps on the ground, they are all places that many people flock to.

and--

The research value of the underground palace is obviously not just the countless rare treasures underground, but the research value of the various mechanisms and corridors is epoch-making.

This group of people will come and check every inch of the underground palace with a magnifying glass.

What a coincidence! Gu Si and Pei Yaning just hoped that someone would dig up the underground palace inch by inch.

Gu Si helped Lingxi stand up.

"Move around first and see if you feel any discomfort.

Let's go out and eat something. I cooked some porridge for you outside. It's still warming up."

Lingxi nodded. Pei Yanning was at this moment in front of Lao Hei's tent next door, talking to two other men in uniform. When he saw Lingxi coming out, he was delighted. He chatted with them casually for a few words and then went back.

"woke up?"

"Dad, I'm sorry to have worried you. Where are my second uncle and eldest brother?"

"Your second uncle and eldest brother took people to hunt nearby. It's okay."

Gu Si brought Lingxi a bowl of red date and red bean porridge. "Drink it first. Don't rush to eat the other things. You haven't eaten for a long time. Warm up your stomach first."

Seeing Lingxi nod, Gu Si looked at Pei Yanning, "What's going on?"

Pei Yanning just laughed.

"I contacted the boss directly, without passing it on through anyone else. The boss takes it very seriously. This team is now the boss's confidant, and there are others behind him. But we won't be able to show up when the time comes."

Pei Yanning deliberately keeps a low profile.

Ever since he withdrew from the expedition, he wanted to sink himself.

Just report it now. There is no need to get involved later to increase your presence.

As for the things that he and Gu Si were concerned about, such as the spirit stone puppets, it was not difficult for Gu Si and Pei Yanning to investigate them.

Therefore, Pei Yanning acted very carefully. Except for Lao Hei, the people from the expedition team and this team did not know that they were called by Pei Yanning.

Pei Yanning was called to Lao Hei's tent under the pretext of understanding the situation.

He doesn't get involved in other things at all.

However, even Pei Yanning didn't expect that the other party was so capable.

Those people are pretty quick-witted.

Hearing that there wasn't much to eat down there, he didn't rush down and slowly began to clear the rocks on the stone mountain. After three or four days, he guessed that everyone was so hungry that their eyes were rolling, so he reluctantly changed out of his combat uniform and went down inside.

Their plan was simple.

The way to leave that damn place is in their hands. If you want to leave, then negotiate!

It depends on whether you want money or your life.

By that time, one side will be strong and powerful, while the other side will be starving. It is clear who will have the initiative.

Those things had nothing to do with Pei Yanning anymore. Lao Hei saw with his own eyes where the exit of the underground palace complex was and how the mechanisms worked when he left. Pei Yanning even drew a small picture and explained it clearly.

What's left is asking for a sky-high price and then paying a low price. I'll give you money and tell you where to survive. If you give me 1 cent, I'll say 1.5 cents. If you give me 1.2 cents, I'll say 1.3 cents. If it's any lower, it's up to you whether to live or not.
