Chapter 63 Is there a Peach Blossom Spring Hidden in the Forest?
Chapter 63 Is there a "Peach Blossom Spring" hidden in the forest?
Jiang Zhiyue slept extremely uneasily that night. One moment she felt as if her body was on fire, and the next moment she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
She wanted to get rid of that uncomfortable dream, but she was stuck in it until the early morning and she slowly calmed down.
Ouyang Ming, who was only separated from her by a tent, also fell into a deep dream.
Rather than talking about a dream, it is better to say that the memory before the injury suddenly recovered without warning.
Memories before the injury poured into his mind one by one. They were the same as the dream he had not long ago, but these memories were clearer.
Then came the memory before he met Jiang Zhiyue.
He was lying in a dry ditch when suddenly a heavy object fell down, and that heavy object was Jiang Zhiyue.
Then Jiang Zhiyue kicked him away...
And because he was too injured to avoid it, he lost consciousness after being kicked away. When he woke up, he knew all the memories.
No wonder every time he said Jiang Zhiyue was his savior, Zhiyue and the rest of the Jiang family looked speechless.
It turns out that the reason is here.
Early the next morning, the Jiang family and the rest of the family figured it was time to get up, and they wanted to leave the forest as soon as possible.
Everyone ate something in a hurry and then packed up their things and put them on the cart.
"Set off!"
Not long after leaving, a panicked scream suddenly came from the group that was just walking, and then the sound quickly disappeared.
Everyone stopped and looked around, but found nothing wrong.
At this time, Sanlang said: "Second brother is gone. He was walking beside me just now."
Everyone thought about it and realized that the voice just now was indeed like Jiang Erlang's voice.
They subconsciously looked at the tree and found nothing. Then they panicked and started shouting Erlang's name loudly.
Everyone shouted on the spot for a long time without hearing any response, and they felt even more anxious.
Where can people on this flat road suddenly disappear?
Just now everyone was basically shouting in place, Jiang Zhiyue walked around where Sanlang was standing.
On the right side of Sanlang was a dense bush of thorns. Originally, Jiang Erlang was standing on the right side of Sanlang.
And there are traces of being crushed on that patch of grass.
Jiang Zhiyue picked up a wooden stick and pushed aside the tangled grass.
A smooth hole appeared under the grass, winding diagonally downward, and you couldn't see the end from here.
Jiang Zhiyue said: "Second brother must have fallen from here."
…
The time came to a quarter of an hour ago.
Jiang Erlang, who was just walking, suddenly turned over the grass on the roadside on a whim, and then he saw this big hole.
Just when he wanted to turn around and tell everyone about this strange thing, he turned around with his left foot and his right foot and fell directly towards the entrance of the hole, and then slid down the road that led to no one knows where.
He didn't even have time to call for help before he fell, only a cry of surprise came out.
But luckily he screamed out, otherwise it would be difficult to find this place once the Jiang family and the others left.
Sun rushed to the entrance of the cave, crying Jiang Erlang's name, and even wanted to jump down to find someone.
Everyone quickly stopped her. They didn't know what was going on down there. What if she jumped in and was in danger?
Mrs. Zhang quickly pulled Mrs. Sun to comfort her and said, "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, let's think of a solution later."
Sun cried and said: "What can we do? Erlang must be in this cave."
Bai Yifeng approached the entrance of the cave and said, "This cave seems to have been dug by humans."
Just after he finished speaking, he patted his head again and said, "Isn't this the danger we calculated yesterday?"
When Jiang Zhiyue heard Bai Yifeng's words, she glanced over with a cold eye.
"Didn't you say yesterday that there was no danger?!"
Bai Yifeng took two steps back guiltily and said confidently: "You asked me if there is any danger to my life. I calculated that there is no danger to life and omitted these minor disasters."
Jiang Zhiyue thought that what she asked yesterday was really life-threatening.
But this Bai Yifeng, even if he came out in danger, he couldn't warn him! He ignored it directly.
But she didn't miss the meaning of Bai Yifeng's words just now.
None of their lives are in danger these days.
So although Jiang Erlang disappeared, his life safety was still guaranteed: if Bai Yifeng was reliable.
And there was a voice in Jiang Zhiyue's heart telling her that the reasonless panic in the past two days had something to do with this.
She made a decision in her mind, turned to look at the others and said, "I'll go down to find my second brother. You guys wait for me here."
Everyone was stunned when they heard that Jiang Zhiyue was going down to look for someone. Sun said, "Why don't you let your second uncle go down?"
Mrs. Zhang also pulled Jiang Zhiyue nervously, not wanting her to go down.
After Jiang Zhiyue tried hard to persuade them, they finally agreed on the condition that Ouyang Ming went with her.
Mrs. Jiang warned worriedly: "Be careful when you go down."
Jiang Zhiyue and Ouyang Ming nodded and jumped out of the hole one after another.
After entering from the entrance of the cave, the two of them could not control their bodies and kept falling down.
The underground passage was extremely smooth, and Jiang Zhiyue felt that her back was burning.
After a while, their sliding speed slowed down, and a glimmer of light appeared in front of them.
After waiting for a moment, Ouyang Ming took the lead in sliding out of the passage. After standing firm, he caught Jiang Zhiyue who fell out of it.
Jiang Zhiyue felt the force dragging her down, and turned her head to look at Ouyang Ming.
She jumped down from Ouyang Ming's arms and said, "Thank you."
Ouyang Ming raised his hand and rubbed Jiang Zhiyue's head. He said nothing and looked around.
Jiang Zhiyue straightened her messed up hair and cursed in her heart: "Huh, what's wrong with her? I always like to rub her hair like a little old man. He's obviously not as old as she is."
Of course, it's about mental age. Jiang Zhiyue was already twenty-six years old in her last life, which is indeed much older than Ouyang Ming, who was just twenty.
Thinking like this, I didn't forget to look around.
The place where they were now was also in a forest. If the Jiang family and the others were not there, they would not have even thought they had left the place.
The forest here is obviously more tidy, unlike the trees they have been in these days where the trees are in a mess.
When they slid down from the hole above, they noticed that this was the only way out, so if Jiang Erlang fell, he could only come out from here.
But the strange thing is that there is no one here at all.
They looked around and found a few footprints, so they looked in the direction of the footprints.
After walking for about half an hour, they found that the trees around them gradually decreased, and when they looked further forward, there were no trees at all.
There are many traces on the ground, as if someone has lived there.
The two slowed down their pace and looked around cautiously.
Before they could walk a few steps, they met an old man carrying firewood.
The old man called Jiang Zhiyue and Ouyang Ming to stop, but also looked wary, "Who are you two and why are you here?"
Jiang Zhiyue quickly smiled, acting innocent and harmless.
"Grandpa, we were accidentally separated while walking in the woods with our companions. We are looking for him. Do you know where this is?"
The old man stared at Jiang Zhiyue for a long time, seeing that her expression didn't seem to be fake, and then said: "This is just a village. If you don't have anything to do, just leave here."
