"I was just guessing, how can you be so sure this is the exit?" Nangong Ziyan glared at Dongfang Yifei and turned to cook.
After catching up with Wu Gu Zi, Bei Ming Hao Tian fought another fierce battle with him until Wu Gu Zi disappeared. Bei Ming Hao Tian had no choice but to return to the Young Master's Mansion! As soon as he returned to the Young Master's Mansion, he ran into Sima Jiao Rong and the others at the main gate.
Bei Ming Haotian's first thought was to find his beloved woman. Seeing that Nangong Ziyan was not among the crowd, Bei Ming Haotian walked over in a few steps. He noticed that their eyes were all flickering as they looked at him, and they dared not look him in the eye. A bad feeling suddenly rose in Bei Ming Haotian's heart.
"Auntie, where's Yan'er?"
Sima Jiaorong lowered her head and did not answer; she could not bring herself to speak.
"Auntie, say something!" Looking at Sima Jiaorong's expression, Bei Ming Haotian was even more certain that something had happened to Yan'er.
"Haotian, don't be anxious, listen to me carefully." Tian Haoze knew that Yan'er was the one he cared about most, so he didn't intend to hide anything from him.
"Speak quickly." Bei Minghaotian's heart was in his throat, his fists clenched tightly as he stared intently at Tian Haoze.
"Haotian, after you left, Yan'er was taken hostage by Bei Mingyaowei to the edge of the bottomless cliff. Yan'er and Dongfang Yifei fell off the cliff together..."
With a 'bang,' Bei Ming Haotian felt as if something had suddenly exploded in his mind. Yan'er had fallen off a cliff. How could this be? She was perfectly fine during the day. He turned and left.
"Haotian, wait a minute. The area around the Bottomless Cliff is filled with poisonous gas. It's impossible to go down there, and there's no way down at all..."
Before the words had even faded, Bei Ming Haotian's figure had already vanished.
Bei Ming Haotian reached the edge of the bottomless cliff as quickly as possible, pacing back and forth breathlessly, his heart burning with anxiety. He kept looking down the cliff, wishing he could sprout wings and fly to his Yan'er's side. By this time, it was completely dark. Bei Ming Haotian continued to survey the terrain. He had to go down and save Yan'er. Falling from such a high cliff, how terrified she would be! Just thinking about it made his heart ache...
After eating something simple, Nangong Ziyan decided not to give up. She felt it was very suspicious that anyone could live at such a high cliff. It would be even better if they could find an exit.
Nangong Ziyan stood up and picked up the luminous pearl from the stone.
"Yan'er, what are you trying to do now? You've already had quite a fright today, so don't wander around."
Dongfang Yifei felt a little tired. All he wanted to do now was not do anything and talk to her properly.
“Yifei, don’t you think it’s strange that someone lives here? Look, even if we were falling straight down, it took us a long time to reach the bottom of the cliff, and the bottom of the cliff is full of poisonous vegetation. How do you think she can live here?”
This place completely piqued Nangong Ziyan's curiosity. If she didn't find out more about it, she would dream about it constantly after she returned home.
“Yan’er, do you want to sit down and rest for a while? You’re always curious about these things…”
"Yifei! Time is infinite, but youth is finite. Of course, you should do what you like while you're alive! Oh dear! If you're not going, I'll go by myself!" Nangong Ziyan turned and left. Firstly, she didn't want to sit quietly with Dongfang Yifei like this. Secondly, she knew what Dongfang Yifei wanted to say. It wasn't that she was unwilling to face it, but she knew that once it was out in the open, their relationship wouldn't be as natural as it was now.
"Okay, okay! Aren't you afraid of the dark? I'll go with you." Unwilling to let her go alone, Dongfang Yifei, supporting his injured back, got up from the ground.
Nangong Ziyan quickly went over to help him, saying, "A little exercise is good, let's just treat it as a walk."
"Can this be considered a walk in the dark?" Dongfang Yifei said unhappily, patting the dust off his backside.
"Are we just going to sit here and stare at each other?"
Dongfang Yifei smiled silently. He liked it that way. He missed the days when he went to the South China Sea Crystal Palace.
Nangong Ziyan held the luminous pearl high, which made it easier to see the surrounding environment.
The two continued walking in, but the space became wider and wider.
"Yifei, look, there's another cave here. Let's go in and take a look."
"Um!"
Dongfang Yifei also took out his own luminous pearls, and the two luminous pearls made the surroundings even brighter.
As you walk further in, you see some furniture and beds.
Based on the various furnishings, it's not hard to guess that a man used to live here.
"Yifei, what kind of people do you think live here?"
But half a day passed and she still hadn't heard Dongfang Yifei's voice. Nangong Ziyan suddenly turned around and looked, but there was no trace of Dongfang Yifei.
"Yifei, Yifei..." Nangong Ziyan hurriedly turned around and shouted, looking around. They had actually entered someone else's barrier.
"Yan'er, Yan'er..." Dongfang Yifei shouted anxiously. After realizing that he had entered the barrier, Dongfang Yifei was no longer worried. This barrier must have been set up by the person who lived here before his death. As long as his wish was fulfilled, the barrier would disappear automatically.
Nangong Ziyan calmed down, patted her chest, and decided to see what this person had left behind.
The environment where Nangong Ziyan was located changed instantly. It was the entrance to the cave they had entered from earlier, but back then it felt more like home, as the entire cave had been cleaned up.
A man dressed in white had a square face, sword-like eyebrows, and deep-set eyes, giving him an air of refined elegance and extraordinary bearing.
The man sat at the cave entrance, with a six-stringed zither on the stone table in front of him. His long, slender fingers gracefully plucked the strings, and as his fingers moved, melodious music filled the cave with happiness and longing. The man seemed to be thinking of something very happy, and he smiled with a blissful expression.
