The daughter of the emperor is reborn, and the evil prince loves her very much

Chapter 116 Companion

Chu Ci looked at Cang Mo helplessly, "It's not that I don't want you to accompany me, but you can't even go down, let alone accompany me in."

Cang Mo had a dark face and said nothing.

"I'll go in and take a look. If I can't get it done, I'll come back right away. If there weren't more than 10,000 lives at stake, I wouldn't go down there even if you beat me to death."

"What do they have to do with me? I only care about you, and they can figure it out later."

Perhaps because he had been abandoned in his previous life, Chu Ci wanted to hold up an umbrella for others within his ability.

Chu Ci suddenly laughed. Having lived two lives, this sentence of "I only care about you warming up her cold heart completely"

Chu Ci thought about it. If she went down by herself, then if he insisted to follow her, she would have no choice. "How about this, we go down together, but you can only stay in a tree on the cliff. It should be safe for you."

Prince Rui was silent and agreed reluctantly. He knew that he couldn't go down by himself, but he just didn't want Chu Ci to go alone and risk the danger.

Lin Feng came over and tied a rope to him, and the two began to climb down the cliff.

It was unknown how long it took before the two of them arrived at the big tree that Chu Ci mentioned.

While climbing, Cang Mo looked at Chu Ci with heartache. If he remembered correctly, she was afraid of heights and the dark. How did she climb down from such a high place by herself for the first time?

Chu Ci pointed at the big tree and said, "You rest here. I'll walk the rest of the way by myself. If you go down, something bad will happen."

As Chu Ci spoke, he took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out two pills, and stuffed them directly into his own mouth. Finally, he did not forget to stuff one into his mouth.

Chu Ci took a deep breath and said with a bitter face, "I'm leaving first. You are not allowed to go down, otherwise I can't save you. I will call you if anything happens."

Cang Mo just watched Chu Ci move down little by little silently.

When she reached the ground, she untied the ropes around her body and looked up, but could no longer see anything.

Chu Ci followed the mark he made last time and quickly found the cave.

I found a place with dense grass and hid there.

She was observing her surroundings all the time, thinking that there was still a person hanging on the cliff. Chu Ci's face was filled with inexplicable anxiety, mixed with a little bit of relief, and she felt inexplicably warm.

She squatted in the grass, watching the cave all the time. During this time, many people came in and out, and coincidentally, they all held piles of herbs in their hands.

Chu Ci carefully identified them and found that most of them were useful to her.

They also looked much stronger than before, but after living in such a place for a long time, even if they were eating herbs, it was only a matter of time before they died.

However, they took advantage of this cave because it was close to the waterfall, and the miasma in this area was still very thin. It was no problem for simple survival, but if they had to go out to find food for a long time, it would not be possible.

Chu Ci told herself not to be anxious. If she alarmed other people, she might not be able to leave like last time.

The time passed from noon to afternoon.

When it was time for dinner, the village chief and several men went out on patrol.

When they were a little dispersed, Chu Ci picked up a small stone on the ground and threw it directly at the village chief.

The village chief was hit by a small stone and subconsciously wanted to ask loudly who it was.

But then he closed his mouth again. The only one who could come to this place was the little girl.

Now that she appears here, it can only be said that she came with something.

The village chief glanced at his accomplices not far away and said, "You guys look around first, I'll go over there and take a look."

Several young and strong men nodded and went in another direction.

The village chief walked in the direction of the pebbles, but after looking around, he didn't see anyone.

Just when he thought he was overthinking it, a big hand stretched out from the grass, grabbed the village chief's hand and fell directly to the ground.

The village chief was about to scream when he felt a hand covering his mouth.

"Village Chief, it's me."

The village chief turned around and saw Chu Ci squatting in the grass, showing her white teeth. She was wearing a light green skirt, which blended in with the surrounding scenery. If you didn't look carefully, you really couldn't find her.

"Hey, village chief, I'm here. Squat down and let's talk in detail."

The village chief and Chu Ci squatted down and began to discuss in a low voice, "Little girl, what brings you here this time? Are you here alone?"

Chu Ci was speechless. This village chief didn't treat her as an outsider at all, and he came here on his own? Of course, "Village chief, we haven't reached an agreement yet. The food and other things are ready, but they haven't been shipped over yet."

The village chief was slightly disappointed. "Okay, let's get down to business. Tell me."

Chu Ci didn't waste any words. After all, she didn't want to stay here any longer. "I have prepared food and daily necessities for you, but I need your herbs."

The village chief looked at her and said nothing. If it were a change, he would agree, but he didn't know whether his people would agree.

Chu Ci glanced at the village chief and knew what he was thinking. "I'll give you some time, but not too long. Go straight in this direction and you'll see a rope."

"If you agree, I'll give you a basket of herbs, a basket of food, and supplies, and we can start a long-term partnership. If you don't agree, I'll pretend I never saw you and won't come again."

Chu Ci's words made the village chief fall into deep thought, "I need to go back and discuss it with them."

"After all, this matter cannot be concealed. I will try my best to facilitate it."

Chu Ci nodded, "Then I'll go back first and wait for your news. If you agree, just shake the rope and the things will be tied to the basket and sent down.

Chu Ci looked at the village chief's back as he left, and she felt very uneasy. She didn't know whether this matter could be accomplished.

She returned to where she came down, tied the rope around herself, shook it, and saw it slowly rising.

Not long after, Chu Ci saw Cang Mo on the tree, "Let's go."

Cang Mo nodded, shook the rope, and began to rise slowly.

The two men returned to the edge of the cliff, and Shangguan Xuan and the others all surrounded them.

It was already dark by now, and torches had been lit on the edge of the cliff.

"Are you okay?" Shangguan Xuan walked to Cang Mo and Chu Ci and looked them up and down.

Cang Mo shook his head and focused all his attention on Chu Ci, looking her up and down with concern, worried that she might be hurt. "I didn't go down at all. I found a place on the cliff to stay."

Chu Ci pressed his chest and said, "I'm fine. Whether it succeeds or not, we can only wait and see here."

Chu Ci said that they would have to wait for a while, and Lin Feng soon asked someone to bring a table and tea. "Master, the table is here. You, the princess, and Master Shangguan, please sit down first."

As soon as the three of them sat down, Lin Feng poured them hot tea.

Shangguan Xuan held the teacup and looked at Chu Ci, "Miss Chu, how confident are you?"

Chu Ci thought that the result last time was not very good, and it was still unclear whether the village chief could convince them.

She shook her head. "Not much, just a chance."
