"Do you still have time to think about these things right now?" Doctor Lin glared at her and said in a bad mood.
Ye Li said with a faint smile, "Just because I don't think about it doesn't mean other people won't?"
Doctor Lin was stunned, "What other people?" As soon as his voice fell, a black shadow flew up from the other side. There were several whooshing sounds as several sharp arrows flew towards the black shadow in the air. The black clothed person jumped into the air and narrowly dodged the arrows in the air. A row of giant nails came down from above his head. The black clothed person who didn't have time to land in the air could only flip around and dodge the nails with difficulty. There was a tearing sound as his clothes were torn a little. Only then did she see the black clothed person land in a sorry state. He swayed on the ground before steadying himself. Ye Li's hand was like lightning and the dagger in her hand flashed with a cold light. The black clothed person had just steadied himself when the cold dagger was pressed against his back, "Don't move. If I was too heavy, I might not take your life, but I'm afraid you will be bedridden for the rest of your life."
The black clothed person slightly tilted his head, "Princess Ding? So you're still alive? "
Ye Li smiled, "So it's an acquaintance? But... there doesn't seem to be anyone like you among the people this fei knows? "
The man raised his hand and threw the weapon in his hand to the ground, saying, "Wang fei, don't be nervous. I won't hurt you and I definitely won't let you die. At least... I definitely won't let you die here. "
Ye Li gave a beautiful smile, "I am very moved. But before you come, you should first tell me who you are. Otherwise... I can't guarantee that you won't die here. " Saying this, Ye Li held the dagger in one hand and the man in the other. She turned him to face Doctor Lin and asked with a smile, "Master, do you know him?"
Doctor Lin looked at the black clothed man with a complicated expression. After a long time, he gave a long sigh and said, "You still came in the end."
The man said matter-of-factly, "I just came to take back what belongs to me. What's wrong with that?"
Ye Li tilted her head to look at the two people. She smiled and said, "I'm more and more curious about who you are."
The man smiled and said, "Why don't you come to the front and take a look yourself?"
The tomb was quiet. Ye Li glanced over the shoulder of the man in black and saw Doctor Lin standing opposite her with a tense expression. After a moment of silence, she suddenly chuckled and took the initiative to let go of the dagger against the man in black and took a few steps back. Seeing Doctor Lin's surprised expression, Ye Li smiled and said, "It's just a joke. Now that we're in the same boat, if we make a fuss, we might not be able to leave." The black-clothed man adjusted himself slightly, lowered his head and laughed softly. He said in a deep voice, "Everyone says that Princess Ding is extremely intelligent, but I didn't believe it at first. But now it seems that the rumors are true. No wonder Prince Ding is willing to … "
At the mention of Mo Xiuyao, Ye Li's heart tightened. She hadn't heard any news about Mo Xiuyao in a long time. Thinking about his health and the environment he was in, she couldn't help but worry. But at this time, she would not reveal any of her thoughts in front of this man who she didn't know anything about. She looked calmly at the man in black whose back was facing her and said coolly, "It seems that this fei and sire know each other. Since this is the case, why don't we meet in person?" The black-clothed man didn't say much and turned to face Ye Li.
According to Ye Li's understanding, Lin Yuan should be in his early thirties, but the man in front of her looked no more than twenty-six or twenty-seven. The black robes made his figure appear even thinner and taller. At the same time, it made his handsome face appear even more sinister and cold. It was just a glance, but it gave people a very uncomfortable feeling. Ye Li frowned slightly. Looking at Ye Li's expression, the man did not mind. His gaze stopped at Ye Li's stomach that was not small anymore. He smiled and said, "This one greets Princess Ding."
Ye Li stared at him for a beat before calmly calling out his name, "Tan. Ji. Zhi."
The black-clothed man looked at Ye Li. His sinister smile seemed to become more joyful. "I hadn't thought that Wang Fei would remember such a small person like this one. This one is really fortunate. This one is Tan Jizhi. Wang Fei can call me Lin Yuan. " Ye Li snorted softly and said faintly, "Tan daren, now does not seem to be the time to reminisce. If you don't think of a way … you and I can sleep here forever." Towards Ye Li's clear disdain, Tan Jizhi did not care. He said calmly, "Wang Fei is right." Finishing, he turned to look at the growing black mist at the door. They could only rejoice that these things seemed to like to gather together and not fly around by themselves. Otherwise, they would be in even greater trouble. Tan Jizhi turned his head to look at Ye Li and asked, "Since Wang Fei has some understanding of these things, do you have a way to deal with them?" Ye Li also understood that this was not the time to bargain. She said faintly, "These things become insects when they are hot and jade when they are cold. Tan daren does not need this fei to say more, right?"
Tan Jizhi rubbed his chin and said in a low voice, "Cold … I understand. Wang Fei, please wait a moment."
Finishing, Tan Jizhi rose into the air again and flew towards the other side. It was clear that he wanted to find something. At the same time, he was met with an endless barrage of hidden weapons and sharp arrows. Fortunately, Tan Jizhi seemed to have a good understanding of this tomb. Even though he was in a sorry state, he was not injured. With a few leaps, he disappeared into the palace and jewels on the other side.
Ye Li pulled Doctor Lin further away. Doctor Lin looked and stopped her from leading the way. The inside of the tomb was not as safe as the tomb passageways they had walked through before. There were many mechanisms and traps that normal people could not see.
When there was no place to retreat, Doctor Lin stopped and turned his head to look at Ye Li. He said, "You are this generation's Prince Ding's wang fei?" Ye Li smiled apologetically. "Yes, I have concealed it from Master. I hope you do not blame me. My surname is Ye and my given name is Li. "Doctor Lin snorted softly." What you are called has nothing to do with me. How do you know Lin Yuan? " Ye Li's eyebrows rose slightly. "I have met Tan daren once. He is the advisor of the Da Chu State's Emperor's imperial study. He is a true confidant. Speaking of which … for me to appear here, it might have something to do with Tan daren. "Doctor Lin frowned and said in deep thought," The Da Chu State's Emperor and the Prince Ding Mansion had a falling out? "
Ye Li shrugged and did not answer. Even if they had not fallen out on the surface, it was probably close. However, she did not know how much effort Tan Jizhi had put into this. There were so many civil and military officials in the imperial court, but they were all fooled by this person. There was no lack of martial arts experts in the imperial court, but everyone treated this person as a weak scholar. Even someone as suspicious as Mo Jingqi did not suspect him in the slightest. It could be seen that this person's methods were truly exceptional. Doctor Lin looked at Ye Li and asked curiously, "Since that is the case, why do I not see you at all worried about your own safety?" Ye Li covered her mouth and smiled. "Master, forgive me for saying something disrespectful. In this ancient tomb … even if Tan daren abandons you, he would not abandon me. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he would want to bring me out alive. "The value of a living Princess Ding and the future heir could not be compared to a corpse. Perhaps she and her child Tan Jizhi could be used to threaten Mo Xiuyao and the Mohist army. He could even negotiate with Mo Xiuyao. If it was only a corpse, Tan Jizhi might not dare to send it to Mo Xiuyao because it would only anger Mo Xiuyao.
