Thinking of this, Li Youran suddenly remembered the pear blossom heart. Why not use the pear blossom as an excuse to postpone the wedding?
Just then, Li Youran heard Tao Hua open the door and walk in. She hurriedly closed her eyes and continued to pretend to be asleep.
"Miss Li, you should eat something, otherwise you'll become weak."
After an unknown amount of time, Li Youran vaguely heard Tao Hua's voice. She opened her eyes and sat up, still half asleep.
"I feel down and can't eat. Why don't you come for a walk with me?"
Li Youran glanced at the food and, looking like she had no appetite, said to Tao Hua.
Seeing this, Peach Blossom didn't say much, so she took Li Youran outside for some fresh air.
"I never imagined that such a water curtain cave existed in this world."
Li Youran looked at the waterfall in the cave with surprise. She never imagined that the cave would be so big and have flowing water inside.
"This blessed land is very rare. Although the people in our village are isolated from the world, they live a carefree and happy life."
As Tao Hua spoke, she introduced the mountain village to Li Youran.
"This pond not only grows lotus roots, but also raises a lot of fish."
As she spoke, Peach Blossom pointed to a grove of trees on the other side.
"Although there is little sunshine in the mountain village, the temperature is everything, and the soil is fertile, so there is no shortage of fruit all year round."
Following the direction indicated by the peach blossoms, Li Youran forgot the past and indeed found a peach grove not far away.
Looking at the cave and the peach orchard laden with peaches, she couldn't help but think of Sun Wukong's Water Curtain Cave, and a bold conjecture arose in her mind.
"Peach Blossom, where is the exit of that mountain pass?"
Originally, he was enthusiastically introducing the peach blossoms of the mountain village to Li Youran, but after hearing Li Youran's words, he hurriedly shut his mouth and looked at Li Youran with a wary expression.
"Miss Li, you certainly won't believe me if I say I don't know."
As she spoke, Peach Blossom turned her gaze back to the lonely figure emerging from the peach grove.
“My mother was born in this peach grove, and I named myself Peach Blossom.”
Peach Blossom sighed as she finished speaking, and continued.
“I have never left the cave since I was born. Not everyone in this village is qualified to go out with the head of the village to purchase supplies. Only the elders and the head of the village are qualified to go out.”
Li Youran gently patted Tao Hua's shoulder to comfort her.
She didn't continue the topic, but her gaze lingered on the waterfall for a moment.
The secret guards sent out by the Second Prince have investigated all the villages on Wolf Tiger Mountain, but have not found any trace of Li Youran.
At the same time, the dispatched officers and soldiers were ready to take their positions, and His Highness the Second Prince ordered the closure of the mountain.
"Young Master Wu, I think you'd better wait here to avoid causing any trouble."
"Young Master Tian, you are overthinking it. I am not like you, who only knows how to study. I am proficient in both literature and martial arts."
Wu Yong originally wanted to go with them to find Li Youran, but after hearing Tian Alang's words, he turned around and retorted.
“Young Master Tang is far more valiant than you, yet there has been no movement so far. It seems that Miss Li’s whereabouts are extremely difficult to find. Going there would be futile. You might as well wait here and be able to help if needed.”
Tian Alang spoke slowly and deliberately to Wu Yong.
His eyes were very deep as he looked towards the boundless Wolf Tiger Mountain.
Upon hearing Tian Alang's words, Wu Yong began to hesitate. He knew that going there would be futile. But waiting here made him uneasy.
The thought of Li Youran's whereabouts being unknown made Wu Yong's heart feel as if it were being weighed down.
In the end, Wu Yong gave up his idea of going with them to find Li Youran. He turned back to the tent he had temporarily set up and wrote a letter to the Duke of Guohu's mansion.
After wandering around the mountain stronghold, Li Youran and Tao Hua returned the way they came. Before they even reached the corner of the room, she saw a figure flash past his room.
“Peach Blossom, going back will be boring anyway, why don’t you and I talk about the mountain stronghold?”
"Miss Li, don't worry, I'm a fake mobile phone operator, there's no news that Peach Blossom doesn't know."
Peach Blossom mistakenly believed that Li Youran had given up on leaving after wandering around the mountain stronghold and wanted to stay and live there, so she volunteered to tell Li Youran about what happened in the stronghold.
After entering the room, Li Youran carefully examined every corner of the room.
However, nothing in the room showed any signs of being moved, which puzzled Li Youran.
“Miss Li, it’s getting chilly. Why don’t you sit on the bed, cover yourself with the blanket, and let me tell you the story slowly.”
As Tao Hua spoke, she poured Li Youran a cup of warm tea, and Li Youran could feel that her fingers were a little cold.
"Peach Blossom, come up here too."
As Li Youran spoke, she lifted the covers and continued talking to Tao Hua.
"We are about the same age and get along very well, so why don't we call each other sisters from now on?"
Peach Blossom originally wanted to refuse Li Youran's suggestion, but seeing how sincere Li Youran was, she couldn't help but feel a warmth in her heart.
Ah~
Before Tao Hua could shed tears of emotion, Li Youran seemed to be electrocuted. She dropped the blanket in her hand and jumped away from the bedside.
"Peach blossoms, there's a snake!"
As Li Youran spoke, she hid behind Peach Blossom.
"It's brightly lit and very dry here, so how could there be snakes?"
