Two angry wind lanterns were swaying on the door, reflecting the word 'Western Mansion' on the door plaque brightly and dimly.
It was these two words that caused the original owner, Gu Xijiu, to misunderstand and mistakenly believe that this was the private residence of her fiancé, Xi Wang Rongyan, so she entered without any precautions, became an automatic lamb, and lost her life.
Gu Xijiu used the teleportation technique to dodge out of the house, glanced back, and laughed lightly.
If she guessed correctly, the prince's fiancé should be eager to get rid of the engagement, so he decided on this vicious plan and deceived the original owner Gu Xijiu into this place through a letter...
Gu Xijiu's entry into this place was like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth. Even if she was lucky enough to survive, her reputation would be completely ruined, and the marriage would naturally be divorced in an honorable manner.
At this moment, the whole house sounded noisy, with chaotic footsteps. It was obvious that everyone inside had been alerted, and the pursuers should be out to search soon...
Gu Xijiu left without looking back.
…
The mountain road was rugged, and there was a heavy rain!
Gu Xijiu cursed in a low voice. The rainstorm came so suddenly that she was not even prepared!
There are steep cliffs on one side of the mountain road and unfathomable cliffs on the other. There is not even a decent big rock to shelter from the wind and rain along the way.
As a result, she could only run on the mountain road and did not dare to use the teleportation technique. First of all, this little body was only thirteen years old, had no internal strength, and was a little weak. Her teleportation technique was not that easy to use. , 10% of the effort can't produce 10%, and secondly, she is not familiar with the geography here. If she makes a mistake, it would be unjust for her to teleport to the bottom of the cliff and fall to her death!
In the blink of an eye, the gauze covering her body was already soaked through.
It was late autumn, and the weather was slightly cold. The heavy rain brought a chill to her heart, making it almost impossible for her to open her eyes and see the road in front of her clearly.
In addition, it was too dark, and she was even more confused about the direction. She had no idea that she had taken the wrong road while running and turned into a more desolate path...
She ran for three or four miles on that path and was surprised to find that the path in front of her was even more rugged and dangerous.
Although the mountain road just now was a bit rugged, the bluestone road was relatively clean and there were no weeds in sight. However, this mountain road was overgrown with grass and green moss and was slippery.
Wrong way!
She was about to turn around and look for the correct path again, when she accidentally looked up and saw a dark cave on the mountain wall not far ahead...
Her eyes lit up! No matter, let’s take shelter in that cave first!
The cave is located in the middle of a mountain wall. The mountain wall goes straight up and down, and there is no mountain road leading there. The cave is more than ten meters high from where Gu Xijiu is standing. She has no internal strength and cannot jump up.
Gu Xijiu quickly turned around on the spot and finally found two long vines. She used a special technique to make a noose and threw it out. One end of the vines hit a big rock at the entrance of the cave.
She moved together, grabbing the long vine and climbing up.
A moment later, she had rushed into the dark cave—
The strong wind was mixed with heavy rain, and the rain whip whipped against the mountain wall and was also blown into the cave.
The cave was quite deep, and Gu Xijiu walked in step by step, holding a sword that she had received from Lord Lehua.
From her original memory, she learned that there were many wild beasts in the mountains. On such a rainy day, it was hard to tell whether there were any large beasts hiding in the cave, so she had to guard against them.
