After resting in the cave for a night, Ji Mohan and his group recovered some strength. Only Shangguan Wei'er remained unconscious, despite Jing Xi giving her an antidote.

Yan Wan was in pretty good spirits and no longer needed Ji Mohan to carry her. Ji Mohan was supporting Yan Wan as she and Jing Xi walked slowly forward together.

Today, they must find another safe place to rest.

They walked and stopped intermittently. The sun slowly rose from the east to its zenith. Yan Wan was exhausted and sweat poured down her face. Her body was already weak, and this strenuous journey made her feel her mind was tense, and her consciousness was slowly becoming blurred.

Seeing that Yan Wan was clearly in a bad state, Ji Mohan quickly pulled her into his arms and hugged her. Li Shang, who was carrying Shangguan Wei'er on his back, looked at his prince with a teasing expression.

Unexpectedly, even the hardest steel can become as soft as silk. To be honest, he had never seen his lord so nervous.

Yan Wan said weakly, "I, I'm fine, I can still walk." She didn't want to hold the whole team back because of herself, so Yan Wan gritted her teeth; she could still persevere.

Ji Mohan glanced down at Yan Wan, then picked her up in a princess carry and said coldly, "I'll carry you, you can rest for a while."

Jingxi smiled like an aunt and joked, "Oh my, marriage is so sweet, don't you think, Wan'er?"

Yan Wan felt a little embarrassed by Jing Xi's teasing and wanted to get out of Ji Mo Han's arms and walk by herself, but Ji Mo Han's arms were as strong as iron, holding her tightly. Yan Wan struggled a few times but could not break free, so she could only bury her head on Ji Mo Han's shoulder.

Jing Xi wanted to tease Yan Wan a little more, but Ji Mohan turned around and blocked Jing Xi's view of Yan Wan. Jing Xi rolled her eyes speechlessly. Humph! What a scumbag! So cunning!

Seeing Jing Xi about to explode, Jiang Bai had no choice but to step forward and block her. Looking at Ji Mo Han's furious expression, Jiang Bai sighed, "My wife is too fierce, what should I do? It's urgent. Waiting for an answer online."

"Let's keep going," Li Shang said, trying to salvage the situation as the atmosphere became somewhat tense.

Jiang Bai gently tugged at Jing Xi's sleeve, signaling her not to be angry. Jing Xi looked at Jiang Bai's cautious expression and burst out laughing. He looked like a wronged little puppy! So cute, none of the family members understand.

Ji Mohan said in a deep voice, "Then let's continue."

"Okay," Yan Wan said softly.

Ji Mohan carried Yan Wan in his arms and strode forward steadily, showing no signs of fatigue.

Yan Wan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Ji Mohan did not show any signs of fatigue. Fortunately, Ji Mohan was in good health.

Wait, what kind of inappropriate words are these? Yan Wan was a little stunned.

Listen to her explanation, everyone. She simply meant to praise Ji Mohan for being healthy and energetic, that's not what she meant.

It seems like the more I explain, the more confused I get (′°????????w°????????｀)!

They walked until the sun was about to set before Yan Wan and the others found a suitable place to rest.

Something was off about this place. It seemed like they had left the forest, yet they also seemed to be still inside it. Ji Mohan, Jing Xi, and Li Shang looked around warily. The air around them felt stagnant.

Jing Xi spoke first: "I didn't expect that Mr. Gongsun is not only highly skilled in medicine and poison, but also knows how to deploy troops."

Li Shang hurriedly asked, "Does Miss Jing also know how to set up formations?"

Jing Xi smiled and said modestly, "I know a little bit, but I'm not very good at it."

He's just average, maybe the third-best in the world. Hey, not that impressive!

"Miss Jing is too modest," Li Shang said admiringly. Suddenly, Shangguan Wei'er on Li Shang's back let out a soft moan, as if she was about to wake up.

Li Shang never expected that Miss Jingxi was not only highly skilled in martial arts and had extraordinary courage, but also adept at strategizing and deploying troops. She was also accomplished in medicine, and her pills really did wake up Shangguan Wei'er.

The group stopped walking. Li Shang looked at Shangguan Wei'er with a tense expression. "Heavenly spirits and earthly spirits, it's so good that she's awake."

Shangguan Wei'er slowly opened her eyes, looked at the large group of people surrounding her, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What happened to me?"

Li Shang immediately took off the water bag and fed it to Shangguan Wei'er. After giving her two sips of water, he explained to her, "You were poisoned. It's thanks to Miss Jing that you were saved by the antidote."

Upon hearing Li Shang's words, Shangguan Wei'er recalled the scene before she fainted. That damned thief! If she ever saw him again, she would definitely have her precious child teach him a lesson! Shangguan Wei'er regained some strength and said to Jing Xi in a coquettish tone, "Thank you so much, Sister Jing Xi, for saving me. If you ever need any help in the future, please tell me, and I will definitely help you."

Jing Xi looked at the cheerful and genuine Shangguan Wei'er and said with a smile, "Okay. Don't refuse when I need your help." Jing Xi secretly envied Li Shang. That brat is so lucky to have met such a good wife.

"No way! Whether it's murder, arson, or disposing of a body, as long as you tell me, Sister Jingxi, I'll definitely help you, mmm mmm mmm." Before Shangguan Wei'er could finish speaking, Li Shang stepped forward and covered her mouth. Li Shang glared at Shangguan Wei'er with a fake smile. What nonsense are you talking about, making it sound like they're bad people?

Shangguan Wei'er struggled desperately, but Li Shang covered her mouth tightly, afraid that she would say something she shouldn't.

Jing Xi and Yan Wan watched Li Shang and Shangguan Wei'er with smiles on their faces. It's sweeter to ship them together in person than in person. They are truly a pair of bickering lovers.

Li Shang and Shangguan Wei'er were tired after playing around for a while. It was almost noon, so Ji Mohan decided to eat before setting off. He and Li Shang went into the forest and hunted five wild rabbits. They quickly roasted them and that was their lunch.

After lunch, they didn't dare linger and wanted to get out of this damned forest as soon as possible, to skin Gongsun Gua alive, hmph ╯^╰

As they walked, Jiang Bai was the first to notice something was wrong. He asked, "Have we been here before?"

The people walking ahead stopped and turned to look at Jiang Bai. Jiang Bai smiled and pointed to the hem of Jing Xi's skirt, which had been torn by thorns when she passed by, still hanging there.

Jing Xi looked down at her skirt. If Jiang Bai hadn't pointed it out, she wouldn't have noticed that her skirt was torn. It seemed that they had indeed been to this place.

Yan Wan and Ji Mohan exchanged a glance, both seeing the seriousness in each other's eyes.

Shangguan Wei'er huddled behind Li Shang in fear, silently reciting Buddhist scriptures. She couldn't help but want to cry. Could this place be haunted? It was too terrifying.

Looking at Shangguan Wei'er, who was somewhat frightened, Li Shang took her hand. While she was unconscious, Li Shang had already seen his own heart clearly. This time, he would not let go.

Except for death, no one can separate them.

Jing Xi couldn't figure out the formation at all. This formation shouldn't be an ordinary one. She muttered the incantation to herself as she walked southeast. Suddenly, her vision flickered, and Jing Xi stopped with a smile. It seemed she had found the core of the formation.

Jing Xi reached out and touched the array's core. Yan Wan, seeing Jing Xi's reckless action, was about to stop her, "Jing Xi, don't..."

Suddenly, a suction force pulled them all towards it.
