He passed it in one breath.
A series of bubbles came out of her nose, which lessened the pain on her face. But then, she reacted to the touch on her lips and immediately began to struggle.
Qin Mu loosened his mouth and tugged at Mi Youxiang's arm, indicating for her to continue hugging him. He then turned around and waited for Mi Youxiang to wrap her arms around his neck before continuing to crawl forward.
Five seconds.
Ten seconds.
Twenty seconds.
25 seconds.
Her honey-scented body trembled slightly.
Qin Mu knew that she was going to lack oxygen again.
After removing her arm, Qin Mu stuck close to the left wall of the river and slowly swam upwards. He raised his mouth to the surface of the water and took a deep breath before diving back into the water to give Pomelo Fragrance a taste.
This time, Pomelo Fragrance stopped struggling.
Very honest.
After all, the feeling of suffocation in the water was too unbearable…
Five seconds.
Ten seconds.
Fifteen seconds.
Twenty seconds.
Qin Mu, who was crawling underwater, stopped once again and turned around. He skillfully wrapped his hand around Pomelo Fragrance's mouth and transferred his qi over.
After obtaining the fragrance of the pomelo, she closed her eyes and nodded. She wrapped her arms around Qin Mu's once again.
Five seconds.
Ten seconds.
Fifteen seconds.
Pomelo Fragrance patted Qin Mu's shoulder, indicating that she had run out of oxygen again...
Qin Mu was speechless.
Was he f * cking addicted?
Helplessly, he gave her another breath. Qin Mu raised his head to look up and realized that the people by the river had already disappeared. He hurriedly carried Pomelo Fragrance on his back and swam upstream.
"Phew…"
"Hahaha…"
When they surfaced, the two of them panted heavily like dogs.
" Thank... thank you..." Honey Pomelo rubbed the water stains on her face against Qin Mu's back and opened her big eyes as she panted.
Qin Mu didn't reply and focused his gaze on the iron railing of the water path about a hundred meters ahead.
Qin Mu didn't know how thick the walls of the imperial palace of Great Yan Empire were, but the rows of densely packed iron railings in the water path made him click his tongue.
How afraid was he of others escaping by water?
It was not easy to get out of a rat's corpse, right?!
After lying on the surface of the water and thinking for a while, Qin Mu carried the honey pomelo fragrance on his back and started to climb up the shore.
"Aren't we going by water?"
"Let's go, but I didn't expect there to be so many fences in the river. It's not convenient to take you down. I'll find a place for you to hide first, and I'll take you away after I'm done.”
When she heard Qin Mu's words, Mi Youxiang was stunned. She laid on his back and didn't make a sound.
After climbing onto the shore, Qin Mu didn't put her down. Instead, he carried her on his back to find a place to hide.
The honey pomelo fragrance was very light, probably less than 90 pounds. Carrying her was much faster than holding her.
Very soon, Qin Mu found a courtyard with a good location. He leaned against the wall and listened to the things inside. He didn't find any danger, so he jumped in with Pomelo Fragrance on his back.
"This…this is Lady Pearl Door's Ancient Domain Palace.”
"Who cares if she flies like a pig or a dog? Just hide here. Be careful, don't move around and don't make a sound! Did you hear that?" Qin Mu put down the honey pomelo fragrance and instructed seriously.
Mi Youxiang nodded obediently.
After observing his surroundings, Qin Mu's eyes lit up. He pointed at a water vat and said,""Right there! You can hide there."
As he said that, Qin Mu took a few steps forward and deftly poured out the water in the jar. He turned his head and said to Mi Youxiang,""Hurry up, come in."
Pomelo Fragrance walked to the front of the vat, and with the help of Qin Mu's hands, she crawled in and squatted inside.
"Don't move."
"Alright." Mi Youxiang nodded, but she still held onto Qin Mu's hand tightly and didn't let go.
"What else do you want?" Qin Mu frowned.”
Mi Youxiang bit her cherry lips, wanting to say something but hesitating. She said timidly,"You…will you come back?"
Qin Mu was stunned, then he gave a light laugh and knocked on Mi Youxiang's head.""Don't let your imagination run wild. Wait for me to come back and pick you up.”
After saying that, Qin Mu withdrew his hand and turned around to leave.
Mi Youxiang hurriedly stood up and looked at Qin Mu's back as he climbed over the wall. She didn't blink as if she wanted to remember him deeply in her mind.
It was only after Qin Mu had left for a long time that she slowly squatted down in the water vat. She hugged her knees and fell into a daze.
With her guidance, the strangely-dressed man with the sickle found the way out of the palace. When he cut open the water railing, would he leave immediately?
She was such a burden, would that man really take the risk to bring her along…
Time passed by.
The water tank was so quiet that only his own breathing could be heard.
The wet eunuch uniform on her body kept sending a chill, causing Mi Youxiang to tremble uncontrollably.
"I haven't asked for his name yet…"
"What if we never see each other again? Wouldn't that be a pity…"
Pomelo Fragrance forced herself not to let her imagination run wild.
However, she couldn't control herself.
"Sigh…"
Sighing faintly, Mi Youxiang buried her head deep into the ground.
"We haven't searched this place yet! We can't miss a single spot!"
"Milord, this is Consort Pearl Door's…"
"No one! Even the emperor's royal study was searched, they couldn't leave anything behind! This was the Emperor's order! Hurry up and search!"
"Yes, sir!"
Outside, the sudden sound of footsteps and shouts made Mi Youxiang's face turn pale.
