Chapter 445 Mark is gone

In the middle of the night, Xie Mengqi suddenly shivered. She woke up suddenly, and found that the fire in front of her was extinguished, and the silence around her was eerie.

Out of vigilance against danger, Xie Mengqi smelled an unusual scent, she got up from the ground gently, her whole body was already on alert.

"Mark, Mark..."

She softly called Mark's name, but what was waiting for her was a silent response.

Under the pale moonlight, Xie Mengqi could see clearly that Mark was not by the fire, and there was no one on the hay where he slept.

Did Mark have to pee in the middle of the night, or did he find something dangerous approaching?
The night was so quiet that only the beating of her heart was left.

She searched around the periphery of the island, but couldn't find Mark.

Her heart was pounding, did something happen to Mark?
There are no wild animals on this island, let alone people, not even a fly?
She had thought too much before, thinking that there were some bugs.

There are many criss-cross ravines inside the isolated island, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the ditch.

Did Mark fall into a ditch?

Even knowing that the road ahead is dangerous, Xie Mengqi can't just ignore it.

She found a few thick sticks, lit a torch, and headed into the depths of the darkness.

Xie Mengqi didn't know how long she walked, the sticks of the torch were almost burned out, but there was still no sign of Mark.

She couldn't help complaining about this Mark, she told him not to walk around randomly, why didn't this man listen, he was a fool.

Mark is really annoying.

One second before the torch was extinguished, Xie Mengqi was about to relight a wooden stick, but fortunately there was more wood here.

At this moment, a black figure struck towards the front door with lightning speed, accompanied by a strong wind of stench.

Xie Mengqi quickly blocked the black shadow's attack with the wooden stick.

The black shadow was so powerful that the stick in Xie Mengqi's hand broke with a click.

The black shadow suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and its sharp claws attacked Xie Mengqi, as if to tear her apart.

Xie Mengqi knew that this black shadow was not a person, but an ugly beast.

She miscalculated, and it turned out that there were indeed unknown beasts hidden in the deep valley.

Xie Mengqi fought with it, but the monster was so powerful that she couldn't match it at all.

The beast may have fainted from hunger, smelled the smell of meat, and began to roar, and the means of clawing out were faster and more ruthless.

Xie Mengqi could only retreat desperately, and ran away if she couldn't beat her.

The beast is as fast as a cheetah.

Xie Mengqi couldn't care so much, she ran for her life frantically, and entered the depths of the slope.

Because she was in a panic, she fell into a hole with a bang and screamed.

Xie Mengqi was covered in mud and her back was about to break.

Fortunately, no internal organs or bones were injured, only scratches on the outside of the skin.

She took a breath when she heard the growling and flapping of the beast above.

The entrance of the cave was too small, and the body of the beast was too huge to get in, so it screamed madly in a hurry.

The beast had no intention of leaving, and was guarding the entrance of the cave, circling the prey inside.

Xie Mengqi knew that as long as the wild beasts guarded it, if she went out, she would be sent to the tiger's mouth for dinner.

What's more, the place where it fell should be far away from the entrance of the cave.

Perhaps the beast was tired of crying, so it stopped roaring, lay down, and squatted at the entrance of the cave to rest.

Xie Mengqi took a rest and recovered a lot of physical strength.

She lit a torch and heard the sound of underground water flowing. She concluded that there was a dark river underground.

A dark river means fresh water, and even a way out.

There was no way to return to the cave, so she decided to walk along the darkness.

After walking a few steps deeper, the sound of the river became louder and louder, and Xie Mengqi felt extremely cool.

She speeded up and walked to the river, and put her hand into the water, the river was cold and clear.

The river water is non-toxic. Xie Mengqi washed her face and body with water, soaked in sea water for a long time without taking a bath, and her whole body was sticky.

It's just that there are no dangerous creatures in this river and deep valley, so she dare not stay too long.

After a brief wash and refreshment, I refreshed myself, drank a few more sips of water to relieve my thirst, and continued to move forward.

She didn't know how long she had walked next to the underground river, but she knew that the underground river water was gone and a stone gate blocked the way.

According to her exploration experience, there must be a mechanism to open the stone gate here.

Xie Mengqi looked around and found that there was something wrong with the candlestick next to the stone gate.

Generally, the design of tomb chambers emphasizes pairs. It stands to reason that there should be candlesticks on the left and right sides, but here there is only one candlestick, which looks particularly abrupt.

Xie Mengqi stared at the candlestick.

This candlestick should be the mechanism to open the stone gate.

After confirming that she was right, she turned the candlestick.

After twisting, Xie Mengqi quickly jumped away, because it is very likely that she made a wrong judgment and activated the mechanism, and a poisonous arrow shot out...

Bang bang bang, the stone door in front of him started cracking.

When the stone door opened, Xie Mengqi walked in.

Inside the stone gate turned out to be a small square chamber with murals of ancient royal palaces on the walls.

The murals are brightly colored and lifelike, as if they were completed yesterday.

Look at the clothes on the characters in this mural, the beauties comb their hair in a bun, their bodies are plump, revealing their sexy chests.

This bold style, except for the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the ancient Z country, there is no such thing.

This mural shows the extravagant and enjoyable scenes of the imperial concubine pouring wine for the emperor and the singer dancing.

This mural records the court's prosperous and long songs and the killing scenes of the later period.

In the last scene, the noble concubine was forced to hang herself under a tree by the ministers...

Could this be the real cemetery of the imperial concubine?
As we all know, the cemetery of the noble concubine for future generations to visit is actually just a clothes tomb. No one knows where her real cemetery is. There are different opinions among the people, and there are all kinds of rumors.

After seeing the ingenious mural, Xie Mengqi secretly sighed.

People in later generations praise the true love between the emperor and the imperial concubine, and envy the imperial concubine for having the impossible love between emperors, enjoying the emperor's favor and all the glory and wealth in the world.

However, Xie Mengqi felt that the world only saw her goodness, but did not feel her pain.

Fortunately, the folk customs in the Tang Dynasty were civilized. If they were born in other feudal dynasties, the noble concubine would probably invade the pig cage.

The ancient tradition is that women must be consistent.

The noble concubine not only married the emperor's son before, but after being favored by the emperor's old man, in order to win his son's wife, he sent her to a temple to practice for a period of time before accepting her as a noble concubine.

In the final analysis, the old man is nothing more than a fancy to the beauty of his own daughter-in-law and wants to keep it for himself.

Even in modern society, father-in-laws are despised when they fall in love with their daughter-in-law and encourage their son and daughter-in-law to divorce.

It's just that at that time, the emperor relied on his royal power, and the poor son didn't dare to resist. The imperial concubine was just a small girl. Even if she didn't like the old man, she didn't dare to resist. What if the old man gave her a capital punishment?
