Chapter 209: I Will Never Leave You Again

Chapter 209: I Will Never Leave You Again

This night, Shi and the others searched for a long time and they almost ferreted around all the area. However, Long seemed to be missing in the world!

The disappearance of Long made Shi look extremely cold.

A group of Shadow Guardians were also very nervous and they didn’t dare to say much.

The next day, when Long opened his eyes, he found that it was already morning.

He sat up sleepily, thinking that… he seemed to be on the run the previous day.

Later, the soil under his feet suddenly sank. He forgot what happened next because he passed out…

Long sat up and found himself in a hole.

Long guessed that the hole should be formed by the sunken soil.

Long looked around again and found there was no exit at all. He realized that he had fallen into a trap!

How could there be such a big trap on the road?

Most importantly, he looked up and only saw dead branches. Why was that?

Did the branches fall and cover the hole after he fell into it?

Long thought that it was highly possible!

But the hole was too deep, wasn’t it?

Long looked at the wall, considering the possibility of climbing out of the place.

A moment later, Long decided to act.

Unfortunately, there was nothing in the hole except soil.

Naturally, he could rely on nothing but himself to get out.

Long knitted his brows and began to climb…

However, it was a pity that he was not such a person with excellent martial arts as Liu Suifeng and the others.

So, he failed to get out.

After several falls, Long had no choice but to shout from below.

“Hello, anybody there? Anybody there?”

However, Long shouted for a long time, but there was no response at all.

Long murmured with a wry smile, “Will I die in this hole?”

“Oh, no, I’m in a hole now… It isn’t dangerous here. So I guess I will starve to death in the end.”

“No, that’s not right. Qingzhou will surely come to my rescue.”

“Can he find this place?”

Long sat down in the hole in frustration. Then, he looked up.

Actually, Shi was not too far away from Long.

However, people tended to ignore things near them.

In their mind, Long should have been kidnapped by the enemy, rather than falling into a trap.

So, Shi just went there to try his luck and find some clues.

At noon, Long shouted in the hole again. “Anybody there?”

Shi was stunned. He felt that it was like Long’s voice.

But was it possible? Was that an illusion?

“Is there anybody up there? Help!”

Shi gasped. That was really Long’s voice!

Shi forced himself to calm down and tried to figure out where the sound came from.

Finally, Shi came to the slope beside the grass.

This place was a little low-laying.

People who walked around here would easily slip and fall. Shi thought that if Long was in a panic the previous night, it would be very possible for him to come here. Shi’s heart was thumping.

After shouting for a while, Long felt tired, so he decided to have a rest.

Just then, the dead branches over his head were moved away.

The sunlight flooded in and Long was shocked. He looked in that direction…

That man over there… Long opened his mouth wide excitedly.

Long thought that his empress would surely come to save him…

However, when Shi really appeared in front of him, Long still couldn’t believe his eyes…

“Qingzhou… It’s really you…”

Shi also found it unbelievable when he saw Long. But soon, Shi jumped down from above.

“No, Qingzhou, don’t come here. It’s too deep!”

However, Long said that in vain, because Shi had already jumped down.

In addition, the first thing Shi did after he got there was to hug Long tightly.

Long was also very excited. He hugged Shi and said softly, “I’m fine.”

This time, they were more often frightened than hurt.

Shi didn’t speak and he was all stiff. It could be seen that he was still in fear.

Long didn’t speak, either, but hugged his empress.

After a while, Shi finally eased down and Long slightly pushed him away.

“Qingzhou, we should figure out how to get out of here now.”

Shi said, “Don’t you have a signal flare on you?”

“No. It was used last night.”

Shi pursed his lips and didn’t say anything. Then, he took out a signal flare from his pocket and ignited it.

Long blinked. “Qingzhou, can you climb out of this pit by yourself?”

Shi nodded. “Yes, I can, but I can’t take you with me.”

Long blinked again when he heard the words. “So I’m a burden, aren’t I?”

Shi shook his head. “No.”

Long mumbled and wrapped his arms around Shi’s waist from behind. “Qingzhou, it’s so nice of you to come find me.”

Shi turned his head. “Mhmm.”

Long put his chin on Shi’s shoulder. “Qingzhou, when will they come?”

“Very soon,” Shi said.

Sure enough. In less than five minutes after the signal flare was fired, someone came.

The person who appeared was Ying Feng.

Ying Feng was very excited to see Long.

“Master, are you alright?”

Long waved his hand down in there. “Yes, I’m fine now, but I’m afraid I’ll starve to death if you come too late.”

Long’s joke made Ying Feng smile slightly.

“Master, I’ll pull you up at once.”

A moment later, Ying Feng came back again with a rope. With its help, Shi and Long got out of the hole one after another.

“Master, what exactly happened last night? How did you end up in this hole?” Asked Ying Feng.

Long smiled bitterly. “I don’t know. I couldn’t see the road clearly, so I went astray and then fell down. I fainted last night and just woke up this morning.”

“Master, it’s all my fault. Please punish me.” Ying Feng hurriedly knelt down.

Long waved. “All right, it’s already in the past. Stop talking about that. Let’s go back first.”

“Yes!”

Shi didn’t say anything and kept silent.

Long then went to hold his hand. “Qingzhou?”

Shi turned his head. “Yes?”

Long said gently, “What’s the matter?”

Shi shook his head. “Nothing. Let’s go back.”

“All right.” Long stopped asking anything.

They would go back to meet the whole army.

Liu Suifeng and the others were all staying in this area. All the people would meet at the place where Long disappeared the previous night.

Seeing that Long came back, Liu and Ouyang quickly went to him.

“Long Xiaoyuan… You’re fine…”

Long smiled and said, “Yes, I’m fine, Liu Suifeng. Thank you very much last night. If it wasn’t for your protection, I would end up miserable.”

Long was thanking Liu from the bottom of his heart.

Liu felt relieved. “I’m glad that you’re fine…”

Shi slowly dropped his eyes.

Ouyang hurriedly asked, “What happened to you last night?”

Long had no choice but to tell them what happened the previous night.

Liu found it so funny. “It turns out that you went into the trap by yourself.”

“Yes.” Long felt helpless. “I didn’t know there was such a big hole.”

“I guess it was made by some people around here to catch wild animals. Who would have thought that you became their prey?” Ouyang said with a smile.

Long blinked and said, “Let’s stop talking about that. I’m starving. Is there anything to eat?”

“Sure. We were all waiting for you,” Liu said smilingly.

Long pulled Shi towards him. “Qingzhou, let’s go and eat together.”

Shi naturally wouldn’t refuse. So he followed Long obediently.

Long ate a lot because he hadn’t eaten anything from last night to this noon.

Of course he felt terribly hungry!

Shi didn’t eat much, but looking at how happy Long was, Shi stopped looking so cold and his face softened.

After eating a lot, Long felt stuffed.

“Oh, I’m too full.” Long looked at Shi sadly.

Shi rolled his eye. “Why did you eat so much?”

Long curled his lips and looked at Shi as if he was wronged. “Because I was hungry.”

Shi got close to Long and put his hand on Long’s stomach. “Don’t move.”

“What?” Long didn’t understand what Shi was doing at first, but when he felt warmth in his stomach, he was shocked.

“Qingzhou, I don’t feel that bad. It’s not necessary.”

How wasteful it was to help digestion with internal strength!

Shi said calmly, “It’s okay.”

Long’s soft heart was touched. So he put his hand on the back of Shi’s hand. “I’m fine, really.”

Shi looked at Long and then slowly let go.

Although Long did have eaten a lot and felt stuffed, he just behaved like that to make Shi care more about him.

In fact, Long was totally fine.

Seeing that Shi wasted his internal strength for him, Long felt both moved and worried.

Naturally, he didn’t want Shi to waste his energy. What’s more, he knew that Shi still needed to use that to reduce the bad effects of the poisonous insect.

“Let’s leave after lunch,” Shi said.

“Okay.” Long nodded.

“I will never leave you again,” Shi said gently.

Long was stunned. He turned to look at Shi and found that Shi looked indifferent, but Long knew that what happened earlier really scared Shi…

So, the corners of Long’s mouth curved up and he had to pacify his lover with a smiley face.

“Well, don’t leave me anymore. That’s what you said.”

Shi nodded. “Yes, I promise.”

Long held Shi’s hand with a smile. “Good. Let’s go.”

Shi looked at his hand that had been held and felt the warmth from Long… His eyes were light red, but the coldness in his eyes seemed to have decreased…

Long kept smiling until he led Shi to their carriage and asked him to sit down…

Liu and Ouyang took a look at each other. Shi didn’t say much about that matter. They didn’t know why, but that made them feel a little uneasy…
