“These are just two foolish lackeys,” Mo Tian said, his brows furrowed as he watched them leave, a small V-shape appearing between his eyebrows. The worry in his eyes deepened. “The person behind these lackeys is definitely not simple. This move to turn the tables just now probably won’t be able to hide for long. It won’t be long before they discover the flaws. So we can’t be careless. We need to quickly think of a way to turn the tables.”
“You’re right. From the conversation just now, I think I’ve guessed something. It seems there must be some dirty deal between me and them. Sigh, I never thought I would do something so harmful and self-defeating after being poisoned. I really wish I could remember the past, so I would know the reason,” Qiao Mei shook her head, looking quite dejected. She took the lead and walked into the house, turning back to Mo Tian behind her and saying, “Quickly close the door and go talk to Dad. I can’t worry about anything else now. I believe that with the bigger picture, this time, Dad will definitely believe that I am his daughter.”
"Alright, let's go." Following behind Qiao Mei, he turned around and closed the front door. The two of them left the main room one after the other, walked out of a vegetable garden behind the house, and followed a path that led towards the mountain. They passed through a dense bamboo forest and finally came to a ravine. They continued forward along the ravine...
“The road has changed again,” Mo Tian shook his head as he followed behind. “No wonder people can’t find this road. It changes three times a day. Who can remember it clearly?”
"My old man's illusion magic is already incredibly advanced. But no matter how it changes, it all boils down to one thing: you just need to remember the latitude and longitude, know the general direction, and look at your feet. The more likely there is no road, the more likely it is to be the real crossroads." As they traveled, Qiao Mei didn't hide anything and passed on the knowledge she had learned to Mo Tian.
"Caw, caw!" Just then, a caw of a crow came from the sky.
Something's not right. Why would there be crows in the middle of winter? Mo Tian sensed something was wrong, so he quickly took a few steps forward, reached out his hand, and patted Qiao Mei's shoulder.
"Don't worry, watch me," Qiao Mei sneered, not turning around, but simply flicking her wrist towards the sky. A faint, shimmering mist, like a thousand arrows, shot backwards, transforming into countless points of light...
The cawing of crows abruptly ceased.
"Sister, what did you do?" Mo Tian looked up in astonishment, his eyes fixed on the sky. For some reason, their previously sparse figures had vanished without a trace.
"It's nothing, we just sprinkled some hallucinogenic powder, so they can't see us." Qiao Mei smiled and quickened her pace. "Hmph! They think they can find us with such a small trick."
After passing through a weed-covered ravine, we arrived at a high cliff. The rock face was steep, and to the left front, there was a crevice covered with countless spider webs.
Song Hye-kyo took a deep breath, stood still in front of the gap, flicked her fingers, and reached out to the side.
The spiderweb receded, revealing a wooden door. The door opened with a click, and the two stood on either side of it, hesitant to move forward.
"Go in, sis," Mo Tian gently nudged Qiao Mei beside her.
"You go first, my legs are shaking a bit." Holding onto the door frame, Qiao Mei took a step back instead of moving forward, and turned to look at Mo Tian.
"Sister, you..."
"Come in." Instead of the expected broom being brandished, a gentler voice came from inside, tinged with helplessness and a hint of sadness.
