Chapter 474: Kidnapping
ver slowly with lotus steps.As Xiao Changyue walked to a distance of one zhang from the carriage, the curtain of the carriage was suddenly lifted by a slender hand made of white jade. The angle at whi...Qin Luo'yan and Xiao Long looked at each other, both seeing confusion in each other's eyes.
"Li Yunfan" Qin Luoyan tentatively called out, but there was an eerie silence around her. There wasn't a sound except for the thick fog; she couldn't see anything else through it.
She furrowed her brows, signaling Xiao Long to be on high alert. She was also preparing to draw her firearm as a precaution, but the moment her hand reached into her waist, a black shadow pounced at her. She cried out and was thrown to the ground. The attacker moved with incredible agility, dragging her into the thick fog before Xiao Long could even react.
Qin Luoyan's heart turned cold. This person was too quick, even Xiaolong hadn't had time to stop him. She was likely in grave danger falling into his hands. However, despite this, there wasn't a hint of fear or panic on her face.
"Girl!" Xiao Long's voice came from the thick mist, filled with anxiety and unease.
Qin Luoyan wanted to speak, but her mouth was covered tightly from behind. She could only helplessly listen as Xiao Long's voice gradually faded away.
She widened her eyes, trying to turn around and see who had caught her. But the person was incredibly strong and skilled in martial arts; she had no chance to resist. However, the pungent smell of blood coming from behind her told her that the person behind her must be seriously injured.
"Don't, don't speak!" The person behind her gripped her tightly, his voice hoarse and strained, as if he were ill.
Qin Luo's pupils shrank for a moment before she relaxed, letting the person behind her believe that she wouldn't resist. There was one type of person in this world who was the most terrifying: someone whose emotions were on the verge of collapse and who no longer cared about anything. And she knew that the person restraining her now was exactly like that.
Perhaps her obedience pleased the person behind her, for that person gasped a few heavy breaths and then growled at her in a low voice: "Find an exit!"
"Woooo," Qin Luoyan tried to make a sound, signaling that she wanted to speak.
That person hesitated for a moment before loosening their hand that was covering Qin Luo'yan's mouth. They then said, "No, you are not allowed to turn back, or I will kill you immediately."
"Master Rong, even if I don't look back, I know it's you." Qin Luoyan said faintly.
At that, the man who had held her froze, faltering for a moment. Rong Ye then said, "You... how did you know it was me" After all, his voice was now hoarse and distinctly different from before.
"Everyone who can enter this cave is from our group, and among them, there are those injured and those with lung diseases. So far, I've only found you."
"Lung disease" Rong Ye seemed unfamiliar with the term she had uttered, but he could grasp its general meaning. "You're truly clever. I underestimated you."
It's a pity he regrets it now, if only he had known this girl was more cunning than a fox, he would have never been so careless and fallen for her trap.
"Master Rong, in this place, unless something unexpected happens, there is only the road you came by. The exit and entrance are both just that one. Actually, if you want to get out, you don't have to take me hostage. You can find the exit yourself. Perhaps there's still a chance of survival. If you take me with you, the chances of being stopped by the Li family will be much higher, and your chances of escaping will be much smaller." Qin Luoyan tried to persuade him, although she knew it was unlikely he would listen. But at least she could buy some time.
Rong Ye sneered, "The entrance and exit are the same Who are you trying to fool If the entrance and exit were the same, I would have found a chance to escape just now after you entered here. But guess what, when you touched the mechanism and the cave shook, with thick fog pouring out, the icy pool simply vanished."
"Gone" Qin Luo'yan stared at him in disbelief, as if pondering the truth of his words.
"Yes, it's gone. You're still putting on a show Is that interesting" Rong Ye didn't really believe Qin Luo Yan's words anymore.
"Master Rong, this is my first time here. If I had known the situation here, I wouldn't have rashly touched the switch just now, wouldn't you agree" Her rhetorical question left Rong Ye speechless. She continued, "Master Rong, how about... you take me to see the Cold Pond You asked me to find a way out, maybe we can find some clues there."
Perhaps her suggestion finally touched Rong Ye, he thought for a moment, nodded, but his hand still gripped her throat. Then, in the mist, relying on his super sense of direction, he moved towards the cold pool.
The thick fog still lingered, obscuring vision within a foot's radius. The two of them moved step by step, taking quite a while to reach the spot where the icy pool had been before.
To Qin Luoyan's surprise, the icy pool had truly vanished as Rong Ye had said! If not for the bloodstains and shreds of clothing torn by flesh-eating fish still remaining on the ground from when they had left the pool earlier, she wouldn't have believed that this solid patch of earth was where the icy pool used to be.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she grew even more in awe of the Phoenix Clan's ancestors. If this ability to move mountains and fill seas still existed, there wouldn't be any Three Great Families on this continent.
"Did you find anything" Rong Ye asked.
Qin Luoyan frowned and shook her head, forcing a smile. "It only means this cave is like the previous passage, possibly a flipped space. But it's uncertain, we can only take one step at a time."
“Take it one step at a time” Rong Ye roared immediately upon hearing this. “Is there any time left now to take it one step at a time Don’t you feel that this place is getting increasingly oppressive, suffocating us more and more Until we find a way out, we’re all going to die here!”
Upon being reminded by Jing Rongye, Qin Luoyan was startled to realize that the air here was indeed much thinner than before. Even she felt a bit short of breath.
Boiling a frog in warm water, just like carbon monoxide poisoning, will make people unknowingly die in weakness!
This further confirmed her idea of flipping the space, at this moment this cave should already be a closed space. If they couldn't find an exit, wouldn't they all suffocate here
"Let's go back to the center of the cave, by that boulder. Since the mechanism was activated there, we have to start from there," Qin Luoyan panted, her voice low.
Rong Ye was very anxious. When he was a child, because he practiced martial arts in the Rong family's ice pool for a long time, an accident caused him to injure his vitality. Since then, he developed a chronic illness. Normally, there was nothing wrong, but once it complicated, it would cause this suffocating danger as now, so he was even more anxious than Qin Luo Yan.
After saying that, Qin Luoyan pushed her and continued toward the direction of the stone.
