A Thousand Faces of Grace

Chapter 79 The Grasshopper on a Rope

Xiao Muli whispered: "Brother Ma, I'm really sorry, you can rest in peace, and Muli will help you fulfill your wish."

After cutting off a piece of meat, he quickly peeled off the skin, and took out the flint to set fire to the meat.

"If you want to die without a whole body, go ahead!" Lan Junque said lightly.

Xiao Muli stopped what he was doing, and turned his head to look at Lan Junque, with an innocent expression on his face.

"Hmph, I don't believe you can hold back from telling the truth."

"They will definitely send someone down to check whether the king is dead or not." Lan Junque was helpless, knowing that Xiao Muli deliberately forced him to speak clearly, but he had no other choice.

Because, in the matter of life and death, he really couldn't afford to gamble.

"Isn't it better to find you? Seeing that you are not dead, I will be very happy. I will carry you back in eight sedan chairs with gongs and drums. I, the lifesaver, can also take the opportunity to have a good meal."

Xiao Muli said indifferently.

"I'm afraid that what they want to carry back is the body of the king. You, who know too much, will definitely be killed and silenced. It is even more likely that you will be blamed and slandered. It is the king who fell off the cliff and died. Eternal sinner, by then, you will not only be involved, but the entire Chu family may be buried with you." Lan Junque sneered.

"Wow! In this way, it's really not suitable to stay here for a long time. But where can we hide?" Xiao Muli had thought of this question a long time ago, but he couldn't understand Lan Junque's appearance that it had nothing to do with him, so he deliberately forced him to say out.

"Now we are grasshoppers on a rope. If we want to survive, Ms. Chu had better do what I say."

"As long as the lord gives me 1 taels of gold in accordance with the agreement, and do something for you, it won't be so difficult." Xiao Muli curled her lips. She can see the current situation very clearly, so naturally she won't be here. Care about these little things.

Besides, now, Lan Junque can't die, he is the key to whether he can find the Samsara Orb.

"That's very good. You collect some horse blood and sprinkle it along this path. Be careful not to space too far at the beginning. As the distance increases, the space should be gradually increased, and the dose of blood should be gradually reduced. , try to pretend as much as possible."

Xiao Muli didn't argue with him anymore, nodded, collected the horse blood, and went to do it right away.

She understood that this was to confuse the enemy, making them think that Lan Junque was going along the path.

Xiao Muli's movements are very fast, the time now is very important to them, they are competing with the enemy for time, as long as they can do everything well before the enemy comes, the hope of surviving will be much higher.

"Did you see the vines over there? Help me over there." Seeing Xiao Muli coming back, Lan Junque nodded appreciatively and pointed to the front.

Xiao Muli looked up, and there were indeed a few crazily growing vines not far in front, growing up along the cliff.

"If they want to come down from the top, they will definitely choose this place. The cliff here is the easiest to climb, and this must be the dead end for their search. No one would think of searching the place they just went down." Lan Junque said in Xiao With Muli's support, he limped towards the vines and explained to Xiao Muli.

The two quickly walked to the vines. Lan Junque stretched out his hand and pressed lightly on a certain part of the cliff. With a creak, the stone wall that was originally covered by the vines shrank to one side, revealing a dark hole.

The two were careful, trying not to touch the vines next to them, and entered the cave sideways. Of course, Xiao Muli's other hand did not forget to carry enough horse meat for the two of them for a day.
