Chapter 20 Nearly in Danger



Song Yining was still anxiously searching for an exit when she heard footsteps and realized that the people seemed to be approaching. Song Yining had no choice but to look for an exit first.

The footsteps grew closer, but Song Yining still couldn't find the exit. With the sound approaching, Song Yining had no choice but to enter the space first.

Those who came over saw no one there, but the person who found them yesterday.

He sniffed the air again, still unsure, but felt as if someone had been there just now.

But there was no sign of anyone around. Could it be that I've been too stressed lately?

Song Yining's heart was pounding with nervousness. If she had been any slower, she would have been discovered. What a close call!

She patted her heart in the virtual space, saying, "Thank you, ancestors, for your protection. I will burn more offerings for you in the future, so that you may keep me safe and sound."

When those people couldn't find their belongings inside the cave, they slowly began to pry out the stalactites.

Their main activity was keeping their hands busy, using whatever they had to search the wall for stalactites that could be removed.

Song Yining listened to those people working hard, while she could only wait anxiously in the space.

There was nothing Song Yining could do but wait. What else could she do? There was a formidable person inside, so she had to be careful.

Song Yining looked at the place she had just searched in the space. She hadn't looked carefully in her haste. There seemed to be a breeze in the place she hadn't seen before.

Song Yining was overjoyed. Once those people relaxed their guard, she would quickly find a way to see if it was the underground river her father had mentioned.

After seeing that no one was coming over there, Song Yining quickly came out of her spatial dimension and took the stone away.

Fortunately, the rock wasn't very big, and it wasn't difficult for Song Yining to move it.

Unexpectedly, the person had been paying attention to the commotion, and came over to check as soon as they heard a sound.

Song Yining was very vigilant at this moment, knowing that the person was highly skilled in martial arts, so she quickly entered the space after a few moments.

Luckily, I reacted quickly. Just as I entered the space, that wary, stinky man actually came over.

Even after Song Yining arrived at the stone dome, that scoundrel was really wary, like a dog with a keen sense of smell.

Let's just sleep inside for now. There's no way we can go out this time. Let's conserve our energy and wait for those people to leave before we go out.

Han Ping recently went to see Shen Peng again. Shen Peng felt that he was always lacking in energy lately, which made Han Ping a little unhappy.

Watching Shen Peng finish a round, the time was already half of what it used to be, and then it was over.

She looked at the man with resentment in her heart, wondering what she had been doing all these years of compromising and yielding.

They can't acknowledge their sons or daughters; they're like people living in the shadows, never able to see anyone.

It must be so painful to have a father you can't acknowledge. You have a son, so you have to think of a way and not just sit and wait for your fate.

While she's still young, she should try to get something from Shen Peng, or at least get him to divorce his wife and marry her.

You can wait one day at a time like this, but Shiyu is about to graduate. You should start making plans for yourself.

Shen Peng can find a job for his daughter, and Shi Yu should have one too. They are both his daughters, and he can't favor one over the other.

That woman never had a son. I heard that after giving birth to her eldest daughter, she miscarried once and never got pregnant again.

She's still occupying that position. If it weren't for the old lady stopping her, she would have become the real Mrs. Shen long ago.

The thought of them doing this so secretly brought tears to Han Ping's eyes.

Looking at the man sleeping like a log next to her, she felt an intense hatred for him. She was unwilling to let herself slowly waste away for his unseen wish.

Song Yining didn't dare to come out of the space. That bastard would come to check on her every now and then.

Luckily, I had prepared food in advance, otherwise I would have starved to death.

After waiting for almost two days, those people finally left with the stalactites they had removed.

Song Yining did not return the way she came. Instead, she waited for them to walk for another hour or so before taking out stones from her spatial storage and throwing them into the cave.

Unexpectedly, that scoundrel was still waiting there and hadn't left. Luckily, I was vigilant and hadn't let my guard down. The man saw that it was a rock inside the cave and relaxed his guard.

He was saying to himself, "Could it be that I made a mistake in my judgment, and my martial arts skills have deteriorated over the years?"

After saying that, she walked towards the exit, but Song Yining was still being careful in the space.

After the man left for a while, they used the same method again, throwing stones, but no one came.

Only then did he feel relieved and quickly left the space. Looking at the stones he had just moved, he hurriedly moved them aside and jumped down from the hole.

The cave entrance and the underground river were not far apart, less than two meters apart, and Song Yining easily descended.

The stone at the cave entrance couldn't be restored, so they thought of the Shen family's bench and took it out to restore the stone, but the effect was not great, it was still a little off.

Seeing that it was about time, Song Yining stopped working on it, put away the stool, and looked at the flowing water next to her.

First, test if it's safe. If there's something bad in the water, you could lose your life here.

The flashlight beam illuminated a spot where the water wasn't very deep, but considering the rainy season was approaching, he realized he wouldn't be so lucky.

After getting ready, Song Yining waded through the water and slowly made her way towards the underground river.

The underground river was pitch black, with only the faint light from a flashlight illuminating the scene.

The flashlight's beam only illuminated a few meters, shining into the pitch-black river, which reminded Song Yining of a scene from the Tomb Raider series starring a certain actor.

Also in the underground river, a female corpse was found. Song Yining felt a chill down her spine. She should not look back and quicken her pace to get out.
