Chapter 1083: Chapter 264: Zhao Ya: Does This Count as Kissing Him? (Part 2)
Watching the falling tongue, Chen Jie plucked the Seven-colored Fruit and casually tossed it into the storage ring.
Then, standing on the shaft of the Fire Dragon Spear and looking at the rock wall above, Chen Jie could feel a pair of eyes watching him in the darkness, probably the chameleon’s.
Chen Jie waited for a while, not seeing the chameleon attack him again.
So he slowly retreated to the side.
Holding the Chrysalis Blade in one hand, he moved the shaft of the Fire Dragon Spear with the other.
Alternating the two shafts on the mountain wall, Chen Jie slowly moved down the cliff.
Chen Jie hadn’t moved far when he suddenly saw an unusual section of the mountain wall not far away.
It was recessed.
Seeing this, Chen Jie’s heart stirred, and he slowly moved closer. As he approached, he discovered a gigantic cave.
As Chen Jie got closer to the cave, he found that the edges of the cave had new stone fractures, as if someone might be inside.
His heart stirred with a hint of joy—could the Commandery Princess be inside?
Thinking this, he moved toward the other side of the cave.
Zhao Ya was looking at a dead gecko before her, her face full of struggle.
She had been trapped here for a day.
During this day, she hadn’t had a drop of water, and more terrifyingly, she almost ended up a feast for the monster below the cliff.
Yesterday, she was thrown off the cliff by the protector of the Miao Territory, Turand. Fortunately, she grabbed a broken branch mid-fall and used her rock climbing skills to find this cave by the cliff wall.
The cave was very deep, and Zhao Ya didn’t dare to go further inside.
Having been affected by the Soft Muscle Powder, her body was weak, and she hadn’t eaten for a long time.
Her body was frail, and she didn’t dare to take risks, so she lingered on the cave’s outskirts.
She was truly regretting now why she had taken such risks without a reason; she had come looking for Wu Mu’s Legacy, and now not only hadn’t she found it, but she was also trapped here.
Ah Da and Ah Er were nowhere to be found, and Ah San was still at the inn.
She didn’t know if Chen Jiusi would also fall victim to the treacheries, sigh…
Coming to Xiangxi this time was truly reckless on her part, and she regretted it now. But what’s the use of regret?
Now she only hoped her father would quickly notice she was missing and send someone to find her; otherwise, she would truly die here.
She also hoped Chen Jiusi could come to rescue her.
After all, Chen Jiusi was so smart and shouldn’t fall for those Miao people’s schemes, then reach the Silver Snake Inn and notice her absence, then deduce she’d been captured by the Five Poison Sect.
As to why Chen Jie could deduce her location.
Why couldn’t the clever Chen Jiusi figure it out?
There was a moment when Zhao Ya even hallucinated, seeing Chen Jiusi descend from the sky to rescue her from this perilous place.
Unfortunately, it was all just a dying hallucination of hers.
But she didn’t want to die; she had a strong desire to survive.
At this moment, she gritted her teeth, thinking she must hold on no matter what, as long as she held on, there would certainly be hope.
So, Borjigit Yaya Timur, be strong, you must try hard!
Survive, survive.
And to survive, eating some disgusting things was essential.
Thinking, Zhao Ya picked up the Four-footed Snake, the gecko, looking at its ferocious head.
She opened her mouth, feeling uncomfortable, she turned it around to start from the tail!
Zhao Ya, you haven’t eaten for too long; you won’t last like this. If you want to hold on until someone rescues you, eat this Four-footed Snake.
No matter how disgusting, it’s meat, and it’s nontoxic, better than eating spiders, centipedes, or chameleons.
She tried hard to overcome her psychological shadow.
Opening her mouth, she built mental fortitude, Yaya, you can do it, Yaya, you can do it!
Ah~
Thinking this, Zhao Ya opened her mouth wide, her face full of reluctance, but she forced herself to swallow the protein-rich gecko meat.
Woosh, snap!
Just as Zhao Ya was about to eat the gecko, someone suddenly descended from the sky, directly bursting in from outside.
She then saw Zhao Ya with her mouth open, about to eat the gecko.
Conversely, Zhao Ya saw Chen Jie breaking in from outside, their eyes meeting, both speechless.
For a moment, both were awkwardly silent.
After a while, Chen Jie first spoke: “So, eating it raw?”
Zhao Ya then reacted, widening her eyes at Chen Jie: “Chen Jiusi, you, you are Chen Jiusi!”
Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya and said, “Yeah, it’s been less than two months since we last met, how come you don’t recognize me?”
Zhao Ya was instantly excited and said, “Ah, Chen Jiusi, it’s really you, you’ve finally come!”
Chen Jie looked at the excited Zhao Ya and said: “Commandery Princess, you knew I would come?”
Zhao Ya couldn’t help but let her tears flow as she said, “I dreamt of you yesterday.”
Chen Jie smiled and said, “Commandery Princess, you’ve suffered.”
Zhao Ya replied: “Mm.”
Saying this, she wiped her tears, and Chen Jie looked at the gecko in Zhao Ya’s hand and asked, “Hungry?”
“Mm.”
Chen Jie said, “But even so, you can’t eat it raw.”
Turning around, Chen Jie saw a broken branch not far away, broke it off, brought it over, and then found a Fire Stick on himself.
Huff, huff…
Speaking, Chen Jie lit up the branch, found a thin branch to skewer the gecko.
Pulling out the Chrysalis Blade, swish, swish, he skinned the gecko, and then toasted it seriously on the fire, extremely gently.
