Chapter 870 Advance and retreat together
"Put this on. You don't know how to fight. And this dagger is poisoned. Be careful." Shen Shuyi sorted the things carefully and armed Xie Jingchi meticulously.
Xie Jingchi watched her busying around, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
Shen Shuyi didn't feel relieved until everything was ready, but before long, he went out to count the number of people.
Three days later, it was late at night.
Shen Shuyi and Xie Jingchi, together with a deputy general named Qiu Rong, led their men to infiltrate the Li tribe.
The outskirts of the Li clan are easy to enter, but what is difficult is their so-called holy city.
The Holy City is considered the center of the Li clan. There are some Li people in the Holy City. It is also the residence of the Holy Lady and a group of elders. Compared with Daqian, the Li clan is more like a large tribe living in groups.
Since Shen Shuyi prepared the medicinal powder, it was not difficult to knock down all the guards of the Li clan.
But there were too many people knocked down, so it was inevitable that they would be discovered.
Fortunately, they were divided into two teams. Qiu Rong's team attracted the attention of the guards, so Shen Shuyi and Xie Jingchi and their group successfully sneaked in.
"It seems that we are lucky tonight." Shen Shuyi said softly, in a good mood.
Poor Qiu Rong and his group, they will probably have to fight with them for a while.
"But it's just perfect. Let's make a concerted effort and dive directly into the water dungeon to see if we can find Li Ye." Shen Shuyi spoke in a deep voice, planning to rescue people first.
After rescuing the people, they now had an internal supporter in the Li clan, and it would be much easier for them to deal with the Second Elder and his group.
"careful!"
When they were looking for the direction, a flute sounded suddenly, followed by rustling sounds all around. Jiu Chou stepped forward quickly, trying to protect Shen Shuyi behind him.
However, Xie Jingchi was one step faster and grabbed a poisonous snake that jumped up and attacked Shen Shuyi.
Xie Jingchi moved very quickly, pinched the seven-inch point, and threw it out.
But when the group looked again, it seemed that someone was controlling the snakes with the sound of a flute, and snakes of all sizes slid towards the group.
Shen Shuyi hated this thing the most and felt his scalp tingling.
But I'm not afraid, I just feel uncomfortable seeing it.
"Find the person playing the flute and kill him." Xie Jingchi glanced at Ye Lan behind him. Ye Lan took the longbow from his back, dodged a few times, flew to a roof, and soon found the person riding the snake following the sound.
Shen Shuyi and the others were not in a panic and took out the snake repellent powder that they had prepared long ago.
A group of snakes lingered in place, hesitating to move forward, but since they didn't dare to move forward, Jiuchou and others had an opportunity. A cold light flashed, and soon, a strong fishy smell filled the air.
"Let's go first!" Xie Jingchi said in a deep voice.
Shen Shuyi nodded, and the group continued to move towards the water dungeon according to the direction they had previously inquired about.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the water prison, Shen Shuyi heard the flute sound suddenly stop. Obviously, Ye Lan had succeeded. However, it wouldn't take too long before the so-called saints or elders of the Li tribe would get the news.
Jiu Chou and his group killed the guards guarding the water dungeon, and then quickly broke down the door of the water dungeon.
The dungeon was dark and damp. After Shen Shuyi and others entered, they held torches to identify the direction. The air was filled with a strong fishy smell and an unpleasant smell of dampness.
Shen Shuyi put the scarf on her face and walked inside for a while.
Along the way, there were many people being held in the water dungeon. Fu Guang and others went forward to check and kept shaking their heads.
Shen Shuyi said: "Now that the Second Elder is so fond of Li Ye, he will definitely lock him up in the innermost part. Let's look for him inside first."
After hearing this, the group quickened their pace.
Not long after, Shen Shuyi stopped at the innermost water dungeon and looked down. The man was dressed in black, with messy hair that was wet and stuck to his face.
His body was covered with marks of whipping and patches of dark red blood.
"Li Ye?" Shen Shuyi asked tentatively.
The man didn't react, as if he was unconscious. She poured out a pill from the medicine bottle, held Fu Guang upside down and reached down, then stuffed it into Li Ye's mouth.
After a while, Li Ye opened his eyes drowsily.
"It's him." Shen Shuyi said confidently. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw water snakes and poisonous insects in the water approaching Li Ye.
Shen Shuyi sprinkled some medicinal powder into the water, while Fu Guang cut the iron chains on Li Ye.
"Can you leave? If not, I'll help you end it." Shen Shuyi didn't have much patience. The water dungeon had made her frown never relax.
Li Ye perked up, looked up, and vaguely saw the outline of Shen Shuyi.
"It's you."
Shen Shuyi nodded: "Pull him up and go out first."
It didn't take long for Li Ye to recover some of his strength. After climbing up, he couldn't help but ask, "What medicine did you give me?"
It seems to be more effective than the magic medicine of their Li clan.
Shen Shuyi threw him a medicine bottle: "Get yourself ready, let's go kill the Second Elder."
Li Ye was stunned for a moment: "Who?"
As if he thought he was being too long-winded, Xie Jingchi glanced at him indifferently. Li Ye couldn't explain the reason, but he felt his throat tighten and he shivered subconsciously.
Those eyes...
He couldn't put it into words. He just felt that even in such a dim dungeon, it was difficult to conceal the gloom and cruelty in those eyes, which made him feel suffocated for no reason.
"Let's go out and wait." Xie Jingchi held Shen Shuyi's hand and clasped their fingers together.
Shen Shuyi turned to look at him, feeling a little dazed.
In the dim light, the man's outline is still handsome, but the feeling is wonderful.
She had never been held hand by someone in such a situation, and no one had ever accompanied her and stood by her in such a dangerous situation.
Now that I think about it, being chased by Xiao Heyu's men in the dense forest, we could be considered to have lived and died together.
Perhaps, many things were destined by God from that time on.
After Li Ye regained some strength, he sprinkled the medicine given to him by Shen Shuyi on the wound, and then took two pills. Then, he took a set of clothes from the guard and put them on. Not long after, he followed out.
"Where does the second elder live?" Shen Shuyi asked.
"This way." Li Ye led the way. "But there are many traps outside his residence. I don't know how to get through. Besides, he must have secretly used poisonous insects to control many people. He has a group of highly skilled warriors under his command. They are not easy to deal with."
Shen Shuyi looked at Li Ye and asked, "How is your relationship with your sister and brother-in-law?"
Li Ye paused, as if he didn't expect Shen Shuyi to investigate so thoroughly.
"They have been trying to save me."
Shen Shuyi nodded: "After killing the Second Elder's lineage, whether you or your brother-in-law takes the throne, you will need to stand together with our Daqian to deal with Yuan Xia. Otherwise, I don't mind changing someone else to take charge of the Li clan."
Listening to Shen Shuyi's straightforward and tough words, Li Ye frowned, as if he wanted to say something.
