Chapter 862 Prepare
Shen Guoan was right. As expected, the older the wiser. How could they have thought that the ancient tomb, which they had painstakingly entered, would become Shen Guoan’s tool to capture them?
It was like catching a turtle in a jar.
“Hahaha, Xiaoxiao, I spent 11 years to enter this ancient tomb, but you only spent two days. To be honest, even I admire you very much. However, since I led you here step by step, I naturally have my own plans. As long as you are obedient, I will never hurt your life or your daughter’s life, because you are all the blood and bones of my Shen family.”
“As for that kid from the Ouyang family and that little brat, I absolutely cannot hand them over to you. You should know that in order to achieve great things, it is unavoidable to sacrifice someone. You are the only descendant of my Shen family… I will pass everything down to you from now on.”
“However, he is just a man. I will naturally find what you want for you. Just give birth to another child. There is no need for that. So, be obedient. Even if it is a princess of this country, you are still worthy of the position. Not to mention… What Grandfather will pass on to you in the future is the throne of the empress.”
“Empress?”
Shen Xiaoxiao thought that she had heard wrongly. Was there really nothing wrong with this Shen Guoan? Was there something wrong with his brain? What was he thinking about? Yan Kuan also looked at Shen Guoan like he was looking at a fool. Was this old man’s brain out of his mind for more than ten years? How could he dream so well?
“Of course. As long as you listen to me, this world belongs to my Shen family.”
“Madman.”
Hearing Shen Xiaoxiao spit out this one word from her mouth, Shen Guoan was slightly angry. How could these little brats understand his grand ambitions?
They were really a bunch of idiots.

Xiaoxiao must use it well.” After saying that without thinking, Shen Guoan made a hand gesture. A thick fog appeared out of nowhere, and everyone fainted on the spot.
Fortunately, Yan Kuan was prepared. He used the iron chains that Da Bao and Little Treasure had used to tie their wrists together. It was simply a dream to separate them. Moreover, he had prepared more than just this little bit. He wanted them to submit… He had to see if he would allow it. Shen Guoan had prepared for 11 years. Similarly, he had prepared more than him. It was still unknown who would win.
“Da Bao, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Da Bao looked at the dark house. The straw under her butt was not warm at all. She squeezed closer to Little Treasure to make it warmer. Then, she slowly said to Little Treasure,”Little Treasure, did I do something wrong by using medicine to save people? Why were we caught here? It’s so cold here.”
Little Treasure did not know how to answer Da Bao. When he knew that Da Bao had given the medicine to Ah Tawa to save people, he knew that something bad would happen. His father had told him that the human heart was the most difficult thing to guard agaisnt. Da Bao was very simple to begin with. He did not want Da Bao to learn these things, so he did not tell Da Bao that it was wrong to do so.
But now, Da Bao felt that she had harmed two people. She was unhappy, and she felt very uncomfortable watching it.
“Saving people is good, but the bad thing is that what’s-her-face hua.”
“But they said that we will be sent to be a sacrifice tomorrow, right? What’s a sacrifice? Is it the one on TV that uses chickens and meat to beg the heavens for rain?”
Da Bao’s na?ve words made Little Treasure even more speechless. He could not tell Da Bao that the sacrificial ceremony was to be done with their lives.
However, at this time, he could not be afraid. As long as he was afraid, Da Bao would also be afraid.
“Actually, I heard Uncle Gen say that outsiders are not allowed to enter this place. Otherwise, they will be chased away or they will be killed. That is why Uncle Gen has always wanted to hide us.”
“Does Mommy and Daddy know that we are here? Will they come back to save us?”
“I don’t know, but if we wait, we will be able to get out.”
“Ah? Why?”
“I took our backpacks. Those people didn’t even know what our backpacks were. They thought they were our clothes, so they let me take them.”
“That’s great. With the backpacks, we can go
out.”
“Yeah, the universal lock is still in the bag. Fortunately, you didn’t agree when I asked you to take it out.”
“See, I’m still the best. I have a premonition.”
Little Treasure looked helplessly at Da Bao, this idiot, and thought for a while, but he didn’t say anything.
However, he still had to inform Da Bao in advance.
“Da Bao, after we run out, we can’t save Uncle Gen and Sister Tawa. Don’t make a scene, understand?”
“Why not save them? They are implicated by
us.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“They are of the same race. Didn’t you hear on the way here? The punishment they received was flogging. However, if we go to save them and are discovered by others, they will not only receive a little flogging.”
“Oh, I understand. It’s just like how every time Mommy wants to punish Uncle, he doesn’t dare to beg for mercy. Because as long as he pleads for mercy, the punishment will be doubled, right?”
“Yes, that’s what I mean. Da Bao is really smart.”
“I’m already very smart.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Our Da Bao is the smartest.”
The two children waited for a while. After making sure that there were no sounds outside, they slowly took out the master key and walked to the door.
It was known that if this omnipotent key could easily open a door in modern times, let alone these ancient copper locks, and these people saw that they were just two children. They had no intention of being on guard. Therefore, the two people at the door sat at the side and snored. The two children quietly opened the lock and sneaked out.
There were no electric lights here, and they did not even know what electricity was. This place was ancient and backward. At night, other than the moon in the sky, there were only torches and lanterns.
The two children had searchlights on their heads, but they didn’t dare to turn them on here. However, they held a small mini flashlight in their hands, so they wouldn’t fall on the stone road.
There was dense vegetation around here. Because they were imprisoned, this was the center of the village.
According to the route in his memory in the afternoon, Little Treasure led Da Bao to the huge circular stone platform in the middle. As long as they went around this place, they would be able to reach the home of Uncle Gen and Ah Tawa in about ten minutes.
And Little Treasure’s target was the home of Uncle Gen and the others. The so-called most dangerous place was the safest place.
They would never have thought that they would not escape, but instead return to the place where they had been.
Little Treasure was very smart. He knew that it was definitely not safe for two children to walk in this forest. He had heard from Uncle Gen that there were many animals in this mountain, including wolves.
If the two of them ran up the mountain at this time, they would be dinner for these animals.
The two children bent their backs and held hands as they ran through the middle of this ancient village…
