Colorful strips of cloth tied to a tree! Those are prayer flags! They indicate a temple is nearby!
There is a hot spring near the temple, there is a cliff near the hot spring, there is a cave under the cliff, and an old man is trapped in the cave!
This is roughly what I know now, but it seems that I can't determine the exact location based on this alone.]
Song Jiujiu's excitement subsided a lot.
"The colored strips of cloth might be prayer flags. There are temples, hot springs, and caves nearby...
Your Majesty, perhaps we can first investigate where the mountains with temples are near the hot springs.
Not every hot spring has a temple near it. Once we have decided on one, we can just visit them one by one.
By the way, Mu Bai has been traveling for so long, maybe he knows something about this, we can ask him first!"
Ye Peizhu suggested.
[Yes, yes, yes! Maybe big brother knows! Is big brother home? Mom and Dad, please ask big brother to come over!]
"Big brother! I want big brother!"
Song Jiujiu urged impatiently.
Ye Peizhu asked Qiuyun to call Song Mubai over.
Fortunately, Song Mubai was at home at the moment. He came over quickly, wearing a crescent-shaped white brocade robe, and looked as gentle and elegant as jade.
"Big brother! Hug me!"
Song Jiujiu stretched out her little arms towards her big brother in a baby voice, her big grape eyes sparkling with love for her big brother.
Song Mubai chuckled and took his sister. "Father and mother called their son here, what's the matter?"
King Kang nodded. "Indeed, there is something. You've traveled extensively, so do you know of any mountains with hot springs and temples?"
"Father, you've asked the right person. I actually really enjoy taking hot spring baths. I've almost tried every hot spring in Fufeng Country."
Song Mubai's words excited Prince Kang and his wife, as well as Song Jiujiu.
Song Jiujiu's excitement was beyond words.
[That's great! I really asked the right person, Big Brother!]
Big brother, please tell me quickly, where are the mountains with hot springs and temples?
"Big brother! Happy!"
Chubby little Song Jiujiu hugged his big brother's neck with his hands, shaking his head happily and wiggling his feet.
Song Mubai laughed. He didn't know what his sister was so excited about, but seeing her happy, he was happy too.
He saw a map on the table, so he held his sister in one hand and used the other hand to pick up a brush and draw circles on the map.
“Throughout the entire Fufeng Kingdom, there are quite a few places with hot springs on the mountains, but there are even fewer places with hot springs and temples built on the mountains.
There are almost only these three places. The closest one to the capital is here, Yinlin Mountain. There is a small village at the foot of the mountain with many villagers.
However, because they sometimes hear some strange noises from the mountain and get scared, they rarely go up the mountain to soak in the hot springs, but they will take a detour to the Lingyin Temple on the mountain to burn incense.
Over time, the hot springs on Yinlin Mountain were abandoned and very few people went there to soak in them.
When my son went there, he didn't hear any sound coming from the mountain. On the contrary, it was very quiet.
The other two are in the south, quite far from the capital."
Song Jiujiu listened to her elder brother's clear voice, and stared at the location of Yinlin Mountain on the map with her big eyes.
[My intuition tells me that the cave is on Yinlin Mountain!
The people who imprisoned that man would definitely try to prevent more people from going up the mountain! This would also prevent more people from discovering the secrets of the cave!
Those men in black can easily make some scary noises! It must be here! I'm going to Yinlin Mountain to find them!]
Song Mubai listened to his sister's voice and looked at his parents with a puzzled look.
King Kang gave him a look, and Song Mubai understood and sent his sister back to his mother's arms, then found an excuse to go out.
When the father and son came to the next room, King Kang sighed first.
"Mu Bai, you are the eldest son in the family, so I won't hide some things from you."
King Kang told what he had discussed with King Jing and King An.
Song Mubai's pupils trembled, "Father, has it actually... come to this?"
"Well, now it has come to the point where either we die or that person dies.
Our family can’t go back to the same old path we’ve been on in our past lives…”
