The sun had set in the west, and Shen Zhiqiao and Qi Muzhu had been squatting in the woods for several hours. However, no matter how much the man who called himself 'This King' tried to coerce them, they could not find Lou Lan.

He wanted to just sit on the ground, but he was stopped by Qi Muzhu shaking his head, and he whispered, "Second Sister-in-law, that man is a martial arts practitioner, he is very sharp, and would notice every movement of the wind and grass, so … Second sister in law, please bear with it. "

"…" Shen Zhi Qiao wanted to cry.

In fact, in the six years since she had crossed over to this world, apart from occasionally angering Ah Jing and freezing her for a few days, she had always lived a life of luxury and comfort.

In the past six years, she had almost never traveled far. The furthest she could go was the last time she went to the hunting grounds.

As a result, even though he was covered in coarse meat, which had been raised by Ah Jing for six years, the coarse meat still became expensive.

Sighing in his heart, he really didn't know if he should feel happy or sad.

As she was thinking, a whiff of milk suddenly wafted into her nose. Shen Zhiqiao looked down and saw Little Four handing over a few pastries wrapped in a white brocade handkerchief.

"Second sister in law, you should eat first to ease your hunger." Qi Muzhu said in a low voice, signaling her to catch it.

Shen Zhi Qiao's eyes lit up. He immediately extended his hand to receive the pastry. Just as he was about to put a piece into his mouth, he felt that the brocade handkerchief looked extremely familiar. He raised his head in puzzlement and looked at Qi Muzhu only to see a pair of beautiful eyes staring unblinkingly at her, his heart slightly trembling.

"Little Four, didn't I give this to you earlier? "Why don't you eat it?"

When she went out in the morning, she didn't think that Qishan would be so dangerous. She thought that it wouldn't be a problem to go back and forth in three days, so she only brought a day's worth of dry food.

The evening sunlight shined on Qi Muzhu's pretty face, making it seem even more tender and red. He resentfully looked away and said, "Second Sister-in-law, I'm not hungry …"

How could he not be hungry? If he wasn't hungry, why would he have looked at the pastries in her hands like that just now?! Shen Zhiqiao furrowed his brows, wanting to return the pastries in his hands to him. As a brother-in-law, she was already so considerate. How could she, a sister-in-law, eat his pastries?

What's more, his age happened to be the time when he was growing up. Compared to her, he was much more … "Ugh …" More needed!

Just as he reached out his hand, a fiery light flashed in front of him.

A bad premonition welled up in his heart. Shen Zhi Qiao turned to look and was nearly blinded by the magnificent scenery before him!

His heart was thumping hard, and his words started trembling, "Little, Little Four, he … he really … really started a fire?!"

Qi Muzhu's eyes widened slightly. It was evident that she didn't expect him to really set the fire.

Once he released his fire, if Lou Lan truly appeared, then naturally, he would be able to undo the formation. At that time, it would be too late for him to leave the mountain before the fire spread.

However, if Lou Lan did not show up, wouldn't they all die in this fire?

The trees in the forest had been exposed to the sun for a whole day and had yet to lose their heat. Some of the dry leaves had already started to burn, showing signs of spreading.

In short, the fire was so strong that it frightened everyone. Not long after, a thick cloud of smoke rose up from the forest, causing Shen Zhi Qiao to secretly cough as he covered his mouth.

Seeing this, Qi Muzhu didn't care about anything else and hastily pulled at her clothes. She quickly poured some water from the kettle tied around her waist into a strip of cloth and handed it to her, "Second sister in law, cover your breath …"

Shen Zhi Qiao's eyes were already filled with tears from the smoke. Taking the piece of cloth from his hand and covering his nose, he noticed that he had not prepared anything for him, so he couldn't help but ask, "Little Four, you don't want it?"

Qi Muzhu stared at the empty kettle on the ground as her eyes flashed, "No need, I'm a martial artist, this smoke is nothing to me."

Shen Zhi Qiao did not suspect him, and nodded and leaned on the tree, "Little Four, what should we do now?! Can you still go back the way you came? "

"Besides breaking the formation, all we can do is wait." Qi Muzhu closed her eyes and used her hand to cover her nose and mouth to secretly change her breath.

"…" As if he had already predicted this would happen, Shen Zhiqiao calmly accepted the news like a thunderbolt out of the blue.

Her hands were still holding the pastries that Little Four had just given her, and she was no longer in the mood to eat. She simply closed her eyes and leaned against the tree, waiting for the best outcome, or die!

Touching his chest, Shen Zhiqiao pursed his lips. What do I have to do? I really miss Ah Jing … If she could return safely this time, she would definitely deal with him!

She couldn't just give him a free kiss every time, and not do any real work. Her dignity as a woman also needed to be preserved!

Seeing that the fire was approaching towards the two of them, Qi Muzhu's sharp eyes stared straight ahead. His thin white forehead was already covered in dense sweat, and his taut lower jaw was so big that one could see his bulging lower one.

He was waiting. If Lou Lan did not appear, he would bring her along and leave this place. As for whether or not they could leave the mountain safely, he would at least leave the place where the flames were located.

The process of waiting was always very long and without boundaries. To Shen Zhiqiao and Qi Muzhu, who were in the middle of a deep and "fire", the process was even more profound.

Qi Muzhu's cheeks were already changing color from holding in her anger. A spark had already sprouted from his hair. She looked at the woman leaning against the tree. Her delicate face was somewhat pale, probably because she was covered by the wet cloth.

He knew that he couldn't wait any longer. If he waited any longer, the two of them would be in danger. What was even worse was … He could not hold on any longer!
