"Will my father really come to save us?" Su'er's eyes were filled with antic.i.p.ation.
Cang Chu nodded his head: "Seems like he will."
With a "pa" sound, the crisp sound rang out, Li Jiujiu undid the iron chains on his legs, and when the thick and heavy iron chains were removed from his bare feet, it was extremely easy, as though his entire body had become ten kilograms lighter in an instant.
Following that, Li Jiujiu opened the iron chains on Su'er's legs, and the only thing left was the iron cage.
Because it was directly connected to the iron cage and not alone, it was not easy to turn the lock. Thus, he could only put his face against the iron cage with great effort and reach his hand out to open it.
In this way, vision was hindered.
Li Jiujiu tried to see just how big the key hole on the lock was a few times, but other than the sound of metal clanging on metal, it was difficult even for Li Jiujiu to grab onto the lock.
After fumbling around for a long time, he finally managed to insert the iron wire into the lock.
Then, Li Jiujiu said: "No, I can't open this lock, I have to open it from the outside, and this metal wire isn't too good either. Although it is about the same thickness, the hole must be slightly thinner."
"Must it be opened from the outside?" Cang Chu asked again.
Li Jiujiu nodded his head: "From this angle, I am unable to see the keyhole. And according to my senses, you are not allowed to, because most people are directly facing the lock.
"If we wait for Mu Jin to arrive, it would be too late." Cang Chu said: "We must open this lock."
"When Mu Jin comes in, he doesn't have time to listen to us." Cang Chu said.
Su'er also nodded: "That's right, my dad doesn't seem to know how to unlock it."
"Not really, but I need tools. At least two pieces of metal wire." Li Jiujiu was anxious too, but they still had to have some tools.
Cang Chu's eyes quickly turned around, and then he looked towards the door: "That will depend on whether Fu Chen can give us the tools or not."
When the night fell again, in the outer regions of the mountainous forests, Mu Jin was currently bringing his people slowly towards the hiding spots of the Yao Yao and Fu Chen.
Mu Jin's purpose for coming here was very simple. First, he had to find a place where he could overlook the entire structure from a high vantage point. Then, Xuan Li and Shang Li would bring people to release the Gu worms from different places.
Everything was going according to plan. As they were waiting for the time to come, the guards lowered their vigilance and released the Gu worms.
Wei Yuanwei was dressed in black, and there was a long blade at her waist. Her hair that was as black as the clouds was tied up high, but her originally delicate and pretty face was now covered by a stern male face.
The people under Fu Chen all knew each other, so if outsiders were to barge in, they would be able to see through it with one glance.
Coincidentally, she remembered the appearance of the guard by Fu Chen's side, so she planned to disguise herself as one of Fu Chen's bodyguards and sneak in.
While the Gu worms were biting on those people, she took the opportunity to sneak in. In such a chaotic situation, no one should have noticed her.
The thick and heavy door of the secret chamber opened once more and a man with a box of food walked in. When they heard the sound of the door, the three of them acted as if nothing had happened.
Su'er directly leaned into Cang Chu's embrace, and rolled her small eyes. "Master, continue telling Su'er a story."
When the man left the boxes of food, Su'er and Li Jiujiu immediately went to rummage through the boxes.
The box had a total of three levels and was filled with food that was still warm. The food was not considered to be bountiful, but it was still quite good.
When Su'er saw the fragrant food, her stomach let out a rumbling sound.
However, for Li Jiujiu and Cang Chu, their first reaction was to look for the right tool to unlock the lock.
However, after rummaging through the entire box, he found nothing but food.
Subsequently, Cang Chu and Li Jiujiu both took out a pair of chopsticks and flipped through the food, even the bottom of the plate.
However, there was still nothing.
Li Jiujiu looked at Cang Chu: "Are you sure what you a.n.a.lyzed was true? Or did Fu Chen think that I am very skilled, that I can open two locks on an iron wire? "
Cang Chu did not give up, his eyes were filled with determination. If Fu Chen truly wanted to help them, then he would definitely give them a chance to escape.
"Let's look again and see where we missed it." Cang Chu said, not giving up.
Su'er bit her finger, drooling as she watched the food. Her stomach rumbled once again.
"Su'er, if you are hungry, you can eat first. But, be careful when you eat. Cang Chu said somewhat helplessly.
Su'er reached out to grab the chopsticks, her small hands grabbing onto the long chopsticks, but she was still not used to it. "Strange, this chopstick seems a little heavier."
The Su'er thought for a while and then said. Cang Chu and Li Jiujiu immediately took the chopsticks.
After such a comparison, the chopsticks made from the same color and materials were clearly heavier than the chopsticks in their hands.
Li Jiujiu and Cang Chu looked at each other, each took one, and started to study it.
"d.a.m.n, this is actually a professional lock picking tool." After Li Jiujiu played with the chopsticks for a long time, looking, touching and turning, he finally realized that the place where the chopsticks were placed could be turned down. From the outside, the chopsticks looked like solid wood, but there was a small piece of it that had been found.
He was also very professional.
Cang Chu quickly took out the other piece of metal from his chopsticks.
This length of metal wire was indeed the best hidden in the chopsticks.
Li Jiujiu picked up the two iron threads, rolled up his sleeves and started to do a lot of work.
Not to mention the fact that he had a professional lock picking tool, his results were as good as half the effort.
Li Jiujiu's ear stuck to the lock. Relying on his senses and hearing, not long later, he opened the lock on the iron cage.
The moment the lock was opened, both Li Jiujiu and Cang Chu looked at each other in exceptional surprise.
"It really is possible." Su'er was also very excited, as though once they opened the iron cage, they would immediately regain their freedom.
"They are now waiting for Mu Jin to come." Cang Chu let out a long sigh of relief, then carefully opened the lock before walking out of the iron cage.
The chamber was surrounded by thick stone walls. Not only were they st.u.r.dy, they were also soundproof.
Cang Chu walked in front of the door and looked at the few figures that were cast by the light and shadow outside. This secret room could only be opened from the outside and not the inside.
So they only needed to wait for Mu Jin to come in and open the door.
"Will Mu Jin come tonight?" Li Jiujiu also walked out of the iron cage, moving all the muscles and bones in his body, as if preparing for the upcoming escape.
"He shouldn't be coming tonight, unless Mu Jin knows exactly where we are." Cang Chu turned his head in the distance.
When Fu Chen came earlier, he had already made it very clear that he had found their hiding place, and Fu Chen and Yao Yao was currently planning to let Mu Jin know that Su'er was in this secret room.
Therefore, Mu Jin would definitely come today at the fastest, the slowest, the day after tomorrow.
Li Jiujiu walked in front of Cang Chu, patting the thick and heavy stone wall, and sighed: "This secret room is made of stone, the soundproofing is very good, even if there is any movement outside, we will not be able to hear it."
"So we only need to pay attention to the shadow at the door, I have already noticed it for a long time, there are three people who are guarding the door, they will not stop walking at all, as long as there is a little wind and gra.s.s, the shadow outside the door will either stop moving, or stay alert, so, if Mu Jin comes, we only need to look at the shadow at the door, we will understand."
Cang Chu said to Li Jiujiu as he nodded his head. A pair of beautiful eyes s.h.i.+ned like stars in the sky and landed on Cang Chu's body, it was extremely bright.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Perhaps, it was because the light in Li Jiujiu's eyes was especially dazzling in the dark night, causing him to feel a little uncomfortable.
Cang Chu rolled his eyes a little, and then let out a light cough. He said as if nothing had happened, "Ninety-nine, then can you open the lock within thirty seconds? Because I just roughly calculated, from the time that the guards at the door noticed Mu Jin, to when Mu Jin came, it would take a little more time. "
Li Jiujiu did not know how long he took to open the lock, but it definitely took a few minutes.
It would be difficult to shorten the time to thirty seconds.
However, Li Jiujiu still scratched his head and said resolutely: "I will try my best."
"Yes." Cang Chu nodded, bowed and returned to the cage.
Li Jiujiu also followed closely behind, and conveniently locked the door.
Su'er seemed to be really hungry, and in the time it took the two of them to discuss it, she had already finished eating a bowl of rice.
"Su'er, what if there is poison inside?" Cang Chu helplessly looked at the Su'er who was eating, her eyes were like a warm rising sun.
"What good will it do them if I die?" Su'er was completely at ease that she would not poison them. While chewing on the food in her mouth, she said to Cang Chu: "Su'er needs to eat until I'm full, only then will I have the strength to run away."
Cang Chu laughed gently, "Then, you have to eat more." With that, Cang Chu gave the Su'er a piece of meat.
Li Jiujiu, who was on the other side, also picked up his bowl and said, "Here, eat this chicken leg."
Cang Chu looked at the chicken leg in his bowl, then looked at Li Jiujiu, and Li Jiujiu smiled at him. Seeing that Cang Chu had not moved, he said: "You don't like to eat chicken legs? "Then we'll eat fish."
As he spoke, Li Jiujiu was about to pick up another fish for Cang Chu.
For some reason, when Li Jiujiu smiled at him, his entire spine went cold, and he lost his appet.i.te in an instant.
"About that, I don't have any appet.i.te, you can eat." Cang Chu pushed the bowl towards Li Jiujiu.
Li Jiujiu immediately said: "Right now, you are injured, and need to eat some nourishment, right, Su'er?"
Su'er also agreed, "That's right, Master. You have to eat more to recover from your injuries quickly."
