Xiao Ruyu brushed off the dust on Xiao Rujin's body, feeling guilty.

"Don't do this again next time."

If she hadn't discovered us, there would be many dangers once we entered the mountain, and the consequences would be disastrous.

Thinking of this, she felt a little scared.

Xiao Rujin's mind was completely focused on the adventure. He nodded repeatedly, his eyes filled with excitement.

"knew!"

Doctor Yang shook his head and laughed, "Little Princess, the little prince has the same personality as you."

"As expected of a brother and sister, they even use the same tactic of killing first and asking for permission later."

Xiao Ruyu blushed and buried her head in her arms.

【Master, you are talking about me again! 】

Doctor Yang opened his fan and smiled happily without saying a word.

Looking at his skillful fanning movements, Xiao Ruyu couldn't help but speak.

[Master, this fan is much worse than the one you had before.]

Thinking of the magic weapon of Imperial Doctor Yang in his previous life, Xiao Ruyu smacked his lips.

[If that fan existed in this world, Shan Wandong wouldn't have escaped every time! ]

Doctor Yang's eyes dimmed, he stroked the handle of the fan with his fingers and sighed softly.

“That’s true…”

Half an hour later, the carriage slowly stopped.

When the curtain was opened, the winding mountains came into view, and Xiao Ruyu couldn't help but marvel inwardly.

Originally, I could vaguely see the towering mountains in the distance from the Forbidden City, but I never expected to be so shocked when I saw them up close.

The mountain road was rugged, so everyone had to get off the car and walk.

Xiao Ruyu was carried down from the carriage by Eleven, and looked at the mountains in front of her with excitement.

[I have memorized the direction that Big Brother mentioned. Let's go into the mountain now! ]

Xiao Rujin also followed her happily, but was stopped when she was about to get off the car.

"Little prince, please don't follow us. There are many illusions in the mountains. It is better to stay in the carriage for safety."

Doctor Yang carried Xiao Rujin back to the carriage and gave instructions to the servants.

"Keep an eye on the little prince. If anything goes wrong, you will be held responsible."

The servant immediately agreed.

Seeing that Xiao Ruyu had no intention of taking him with her, Xiao Rujin quickly spoke, "Sister..."

There was a hint of grievance in his tone instantly, and his small body shrank into a ball.

"Don't leave me, I'm scared."

Xiao Ruyu was in a dilemma and turned to Doctor Yang for help.

[Or...]

Doctor Yang shook his head slightly, seeing through her thoughts, and refused outright, "No, the little prince is not in good health after all. There is no telling what dangers there are in this mountain. If something happens, Master will not be able to explain to the Queen."

[Stinky little brother, we will be back soon, just wait here obediently. ]

Xiao Ruyu stroked the top of his head and comforted him.

Just as she was about to get up and leave, her clothes were grabbed again. She looked back and her heart softened.

Xiao Rujin looked at her aggrievedly, with a layer of mist in her eyes, "But I'm even more scared when my sister is not here."

"Leaving my sister is the most dangerous thing."

Seeing his appearance, Xiao Ruyu completely softened her heart and carried him out of the carriage.

[Forget it, let's just keep my stinky brother with me. Master and Eleven are here.]

Doctor Yang was helpless but he had to agree.

The four of them stepped into the mountain together and walked in the direction Xiao Ru'an had mentioned.

This mountain is no different from ordinary mountains, with birds singing, flowers blooming, lush branches and leaves, and some birds flying overhead from time to time.

[This is not unusual.]

When Xiao Ruyu was wondering, he slowly stepped into the deep woods.

The deeper we went, the more things started to seem wrong.

The originally emerald green branches began to turn green and yellow for some reason. As I walked further inside, a feeling of decay and loneliness came over me.

Doctor Yang squatted down, feeling something was wrong, "The depths of this forest are completely different from the outer areas."

"If we continue to go deeper, I'm afraid something strange will happen."

"Little princess, be careful."

Xiao Ruyu and Shiyi exchanged a firm look, held him with one hand, and held Xiao Rujin tightly with the other hand, and continued to move forward.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Eleven let out a low cry.

"It's getting foggy."

The mist rose quietly like a ghost, swallowing up even the faint sound of the wind in the woods, leaving only a terrifying silence. The breathing of the four people could be heard clearly, and the original sounds of birds and insects disappeared, leaving only a few low roars of wild animals that seemed to come from afar.

When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong!

Xiao Ruyu held her breath and spoke from the bottom of her heart.

[Don't breathe, this mist might be poisonous. ]

The visibility is getting lower and lower. At the beginning, I could only see the shadows of leaves, but now I can only barely see the people in front and behind.

【Hold on tight, don't get lost. 】

Xiao Ruyu held Xiao Ru'an's hand tightly, and wanted to hold Doctor Yang in front of her with her other hand, but she found that something strange happened!

Doctor Yang was clearly less than two meters in front of her just now, but now he disappeared into the fog!

"Master!" Xiao Ruyu shouted anxiously.

The only response she got was the empty forest.

Something is wrong!

Eleven disappeared too!

She was completely panicked. She turned back and took two more steps, and found that Eleven, who was originally guarding the rear road behind the team, had disappeared.

This fog must be poisonous!

Xiao Ruyu tried to draw on her spiritual power to force the mist out of her body, when she discovered an even more terrifying problem.

Her spiritual power.

Disappeared...

On the other side, Doctor Yang also noticed something was wrong. There was something wrong with the silence around him.

He looked back suddenly, and there was no one behind him.

"Little Princess!"

"eleven!"

Doctor Yang shouted anxiously twice, then immediately turned around and tried to go back the way he came.

After going around twice, I saw the mark he made on the tree again, and my heart sank.

He is trapped here!

This is not the most important thing. The key is that Xiao Ruyu and the others are missing and no one knows whether they have encountered any danger.

Doctor Yang became more and more anxious the more he thought about it. He formed seals with his hands and prepared to break through the fog and escape.

When the spiritual power in his hands condensed, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.

"Dan Wandong? How dare you show up!"

Looking at Shan Wandong in a black robe, Doctor Yang realized, "Is this all a trap set by you?!"

Shan Wandong laughed “hehehe”, and the black energy in his hands condensed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Xuan Lingzi! Today is the day you will die."

"Give me your life!"

The black energy condensed into a long sword that cut through the night sky, with the force of a violent storm, pressing towards Doctor Yang in mid-air.

Xuan Lingzi?

Isn't this his name in his previous life?

The sword in Shan Wandong's hand looked more and more familiar to him. When he realized what was happening, cold sweat crept up his back.

"Soul-Calling Sword! How did you get this sword?!"

Doctor Yang's pupils gradually dilated and he subconsciously took two steps back.

The Soul-Calling Sword was Dan Wandong's magic weapon in his previous life. Whenever the sword was raised or fell, it brought with it endless wind and thunder.

Now he was unarmed, and even the sword he was carrying had disappeared. If he were to take this attack head-on...

There is only one outcome.

Scared to death!
