Chu Yan seemed to be in a good mood, talking and laughing along the way, but Shi Qingxue was thinking about doing business.
Walking along the mountain road and stepping on the bushes along the way, they reached the top of the mountain without realizing it.
Looking at the lush green conifers on the opposite hillside, Shi Qingxue took a long breath.
She stopped her horse, then turned her head to look at Chu Yan, with a hint of inexplicable annoyance under her tired face.
"Lost him!"
These three simple words made Chu Yan stunned, and then his eyes swept across the large bushes in front of him.
Then he scratched his head again and again.
"Look, I was right when I said Zhou Yan was good at escaping... Hehe..."
His smile was a little forced, especially after noticing Shi Qingxue's increasingly impatient expression. In the end, he could only laugh dryly a few times and shut up in displeasure.
If someone asked him to put all the blame on himself for losing the car, Chu Yan would definitely not admit it. After all, he was just being polite and didn't ride slowly.
but……
There is no way, if you are angry, you have to bear it.
If anyone was to blame, it was Zhou Yan who was too cowardly. He had just arrived a short while ago and scared the other person so much that he rode his horse into the ravine.
Chu Yan didn't know how to defend himself for a moment, but when he noticed a rock at the bottom of the hill out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly looked excited.
"wrong!"
"That old guy is at the bottom of the hill. Come on, let's follow him!"
Following his excited gesture, Shi Qingxue, who had originally wanted to scold Chu Yan severely, also paid attention.
At first glance, she could easily find that the horse Zhou Yan was riding was lying there, trying to stand up but half of its leg was limping, obviously it had fallen all the way down from here.
With the clue in hand, Shi Qingxue was too lazy to argue with Chu Yan and got off the horse immediately.
"Chase!"
"If you let Zhou Yan go today, I will kill you first!"
Chu Yan: “…”
So, everything is wrong with me today?
This was a critical moment. Although he was unhappy, he didn't want to argue too much. He dismounted and chased down the slope.
The slope in front of me is quite steep and overgrown with weeds. If I want to ride my horse down, I will definitely fall to my death.
The two men quickly found the horse left behind by Zhou Yan. The horse had indeed fallen from above, and its left front leg was obviously broken.
Chu Yan had better eyesight and quickly noticed traces of someone stepping on one side, and the leaves along the way were stained with blood.
"Over here!"
After shouting, he walked forward first.
Chu Yan was very excited this time. He quickly followed the clues along the way. The two of them bypassed many bushes and finally saw Zhou Yan's limping figure in the distance.
"Zhou Yan, stop!"
Following the scolding, Zhou Yan, who had just managed to shake off the two men, suddenly changed his expression and ran away in a hurry.
Seeing that he had alerted the enemy in his haste, Chu Yan didn't bother to care anymore. Zhou Yan was already injured and couldn't run far anyway.
The three of them, one in front and two behind, continued to walk for a while.
"Chu Yan, watch your step!"
Suddenly, Shi Qingxue, who had been silent all the time, shouted hurriedly and reached out to grab Chu Yan in front of her.
Before Chu Yan could react, his right foot had already stepped on empty air.
The sudden feeling of weightlessness spread from the soles of his feet to his entire body. Chu Yan was shocked and noticed that there was a dark cave under his feet, which was originally hidden by a few withered weeds!
The cave entrance was not small, and by the time he realized he had stepped on empty air, it was too late. In a hurry, Shi Qingxue wanted to grab him, but he stumbled and was still a step too slow, and finally they both fell down.
This seemingly peaceful forest, upon closer inspection, turned out to be filled with numerous large and small pits and holes in the rock caves all over the mountain!
If you are not careful, you will definitely fall down accidentally.
After Shi Qingxue and Chu Yan missed a step and fell into the cave, they felt a long time before they hit the ground hard.
The ground was obviously still a steep slope, and she almost lost consciousness for a moment due to the bump
In the end, all they could hear was the sound of rushing water, and the two of them rolled down the side one after another.
And below the cave entrance where the two men had just stepped on empty air, there was a turbulent underground river!
The river is not deep, but it seems very turbulent here, with a loud roar.
After falling into the river, Shi Qingxue barely floated to the surface, but he still accidentally drank several mouthfuls of river water due to losing all his strength.
The river water was icy cold, and the armor on her body had obviously become a burden. In addition, she was soaked all over, making it extremely difficult for her to move.
Shi Qingxue barely managed to grab the rock next to her with her hands, and then she remembered that she had not seen Chu Yan.
"Chu Yan?"
Crash——
Following her anxious shout, Chu Yan's head just popped out of the river.
"Don't worry, the general is here!"
He looked up at the underground cave and found that it was completely dark. The entrance of the cave where the two people fell was also very high, revealing only faint light.
Judging by visual observation, the cave entrance is estimated to be at least ten feet away from here, if not a hundred feet.
It was a blessing to not die after falling from such a high distance, and climbing up was like climbing to the sky.
Realizing the current situation of the two, Chu Yan felt a strong sense of survival from a desperate situation.
Before he could despair, suddenly, a slender hand covered with calluses was placed on his shoulder in the darkness.
Then, his hand moved down to his shoulder and grasped his wrist.
Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, and before he could say anything, Shi Qingxue's serious voice rang out:
