Song Ning herself was easy to talk to, but she ran in the opposite direction from Mu Xueyun, deliberately making a commotion to lure people towards her.
As the people drew closer, she picked up a stone from the ground, put her clothes on it, threw the stone down the slope, screamed again, and instantly disappeared into the space.
Upon entering the space, Song Ning breathed a heavy sigh of relief; she was exhausted.
She heard the people outside chasing her here, and there were still loose stones rolling down the slope. The stones had already rolled far away, and the weeds were blocking the view, so she couldn't see the people clearly. She could only see their clothes getting farther and farther away.
The people outside cursed and prepared to go back and call for help.
There was no sound outside for a while, so Song Ning waited a bit longer before coming out of the space.
It was already dark outside. Once it got dark, she wouldn't be able to find where Mu Xueyun had been hiding during the day.
I don't know if this person knows to go down the mountain to ask for help. They can't just be so stubborn as to wait for her in that place.
Forget it, even if we were really in that place, we wouldn't starve to death in one night, at most we'd be scared half to death.
However, preoccupied with Mu Xueyun, Song Ning forgot that she was standing on a slope. She turned around, lost her footing, and fell straight down.
Song Ning: I f***ing
......
Mu Xueyun wasn't that stubborn, and she came out after confirming that no one was around.
After searching around for Song Ning, they overheard the conversation between the men in black and immediately assumed that Song Ning had really fallen.
She didn't dare to speak until those people left, then she hurriedly ran down the mountain. As soon as she got down the mountain, she ran into Xie Linzhou, who was looking for Song Ning. She was sitting in Xie Linzhou's group, wailing and crying.
"Song, Song Ning... Waaaaah... Song Ning... Waaaaah..."
Zhang Ping stood helplessly to the side, glancing at his young master's increasingly dark face, and tried his best to adjust his attitude: "Miss Mu, you've been crying here for almost half an hour. What happened to Miss Song? Where is she? Tell me!"
Looking at Xie Linzhou's expression, Mu Xueyun tried her best to control herself.
At least last time she knew nothing and was unconscious no matter what happened, but this time was different. This time she really didn't expect Song Ning to risk his life to save her.
"Song, Song Ning, she...she fell..."
Xie Linzhou, who had been silent until now, suddenly stood up, his eyes blazing with fury, and asked in a cold voice, "Where did it fall?"
"They fell...they fell off a cliff..."
Xie Linzhou's dark face turned deathly pale instantly.
Zhang Ping quickly said, "Young Master, Miss Song is very lucky and will definitely be alright."
Xie Linzhou pursed his lips, his eyes seemingly brewing a storm.
"Pass down the order: everyone stationed at the foot of the mountain, go up the mountain and search!"
"yes."
Xie Linzhou arrived almost immediately after the two were tied up, but they were delayed because of the help they received along the way.
Just as they reached the foot of the mountain, they encountered Mu Xueyun, who was coming down from the mountain looking disheveled.
He had initially sent a dozen men up the mountain to scout the situation, but now that Song Ning's fate was uncertain, he couldn't wait any longer.
"Young Master, what about this Miss Mu...?"
"Send someone to send her back."
"yes."
Mu Xueyun was still crying when she was lifted up from under her arms and taken away.
Zhang Ping followed behind Xie Linzhou: "Young Master, you'd better not go up. It's dark now, and it's too dangerous up there."
Xie Linzhou remained silent, nor did he stop walking.
Knowing he couldn't persuade her otherwise, Zhang Ping simply stopped talking.
Xie Linzhou brought a whole military camp with him. He could wipe out not just a few assassins, but even a whole band of bandits.
Torches were lit all over the mountain, and Zhang Ping and his men quickly found the place where Song Ning had fallen.
Xie Linzhou made a move to go down, but Zhang Ping stopped him: "Young Master, we don't know the situation down there yet, so I'll go down instead."
"I'll go myself."
He doesn't trust anyone else to go down there.
Xie Linzhou was skilled in martial arts, so his descent went relatively smoothly.
Just halfway down the slope, I saw the clothes caught on the branches.
Xie Linzhou took off the clothes with trembling hands. The clothes were covered in blood, and his eyes were still red in the darkness.
Below was an even steeper cliff, where the howling of wolves echoed through the valley at night. If one were to tumble down, there would be no trace of their body.
The thought of this made Xie Linzhou's legs go weak.
"Young Master, shall we go down?"
"Down."
The ground below is like a cliff; going down from here is extremely dangerous.
But just like last time when it rained in Yuanzhou, Xie Linzhou insisted on going down, and no one could stop him.
......
Using the space around him, Song Ning slowly made his way down the slope, thankfully without falling to his death.
Looking at the mountains above, the scene seemed strangely familiar.
She had done something similar on the way to escape famine, and at that time, she also saved Xie Linzhou.
Surely we won't run into anyone else this time?
She went into the space to change her clothes, and then "bang!" the sound of something falling brought her back to her senses.
Emerging from the space, I shone my flashlight and saw a person lying not far away, who appeared to have also fallen from above.
He slowly walked over, turned the person over, and Song Ning was stunned.
Xie Linzhou?
Is this what they call fate?
She's fallen into this place, and yet we still managed to meet.
I went over and checked his breathing. He was still alive, but he must have been badly hurt from falling down there.
We quickly fed him some spring water and dragged him to a flat area. To my surprise, the scene felt even more familiar.
I checked his body and found he had abrasions, but thankfully his head was intact, so he should be fine.
