At the moment she fell down, Chu Ci only felt that her whole brain was buzzing and couldn't do anything.
Yu Jin seemed to be shouting beside her, but her consciousness gradually became blurred and she couldn't hear anything, finally fainting...
When she woke up again, Chu Ci was woken up by the sound of dripping water. She slowly opened her eyes in a splitting headache, and everything around her was dark, cold and gloomy, nothing could be seen...
Chu Ci groaned in pain and struggled to get up, but as soon as he moved his hands slightly, he heard the clanking of chains being dragged, only to discover that both of his hands were shackled...
The Chu Ci didn't come from the heart, and she tried to pull hard a few times, but she didn't know if the poison hadn't passed yet. She felt that her whole body was still soft and weak, unable to exert any strength, and could only walk in the direction of the chain, soon arriving at the cold stone wall. The chain was embedded in the stone wall and couldn't be pulled off.
Chu Ci was feeling her way along the stone wall in the darkness, searching for a mechanism. She had a hunch that there must be some kind of device here that could open the lock chain. But before she had been searching for long, suddenly she felt the other end of the lock chain connected to her hand being slowly and forcefully pulled away by an unknown force...
Chu Ci was no match for that force, and suddenly heard the sound of chains clanking loudly, followed by being dragged and pulled to crash into something. Chu Ci let out a pained hum, only to find himself crashing into a living person who had appeared out of nowhere...
That person wore a cloak and a golden black mask, and despite being bumped by her like that, still stood motionless in place.
He suddenly reached out and grabbed Chu Ci's small hand that was locked in the red chain, the starry chain on her wrist was now emitting a strong, eerie glow.
He grasped her small hand, which she couldn't shake off, and tilted his head to carefully examine the starry chain on her hand. He tried to pull it down from her hand several times, but not only did he fail to take it off, he also scraped the skin off Chu Ci's wrist...
The starry light cast a gentle glow on her rosy skin, making her look even more delicate and lovely. He reached out his hand to gently stroke her soft and tender hands, as if in admiration, and lazily said, "Your skin is so tender."
Chu Ci grasped his hand back and said in a cold, hoarse voice: "Let go."
"Alright, you take off what's on your hand and I'll let go." The person was certain that the starry chain on Chu Ci's hand could only be taken off when she willingly took it off herself, so he wanted Chu Ci to remove the starry chain by herself.
However, Chu Ci just paused for a moment and coldly said: "Delusional."
Chu Ci's response seemed to be within his expectations, so he simply gently grasped her wrist, which was locked in chains and had turned bright red, slowly applying force, and softly spoke to give her a choice: "How about this, I'll give you two options. Either you take it off yourself; or... I'll cut your hand off."
Such a gentle voice, as if the devil was whispering in one's ear, sending shivers down one's spine.
However, Chu Ci bit her lip tightly and didn't make a sound.
The next moment, a cracking sound was heard, and Chu Ci felt that his bones were almost crushed, the pain was so intense that even biting his lips didn't make a sound, but he couldn't hold back the physiological tears streaming down from the corners of his eyes...
He suddenly stretched out his other hand, the icy fingertips lightly touching the hot tears at the corner of her eyes, and softly said: "You're crying."
