Chapter 167 Fall
When Yuan Ziyu was digging herbs, he would always secretly put one or two herb seedlings in the Qiongjiang Pavilion, for fear that Qingying and Qingzhi would see it and scare them again. So every time he picked herbs, Yuan Ziyu would ask Qingying and Qingzhi to wait there.
Although they were waiting there, Qingying and Qingzhi never took their eyes off Yuan Ziyu!
When Huo Wan ran over just now, Qingying and Qingzhi watched Yuan Ziyu suddenly hide to the side and stick to the cliff wall. But the next moment, he suddenly flashed and disappeared without a trace.
Qingying and Qingzhi were frightened out of their wits. They screamed and ran towards the cliff.
Huo Xi flew extremely fast, arriving first after starting later. He reached the cliff and searched everywhere, but couldn't find Yuan Ziyu's expression. He was immediately anxious and turned to look at Qingying and Qingzhi who were running towards him: "Why did the second lady disappear just now?"
Qingying and Qingzhi were worried about Yuan Ziyu's safety, their faces covered with tears. When they heard Huo Xifei's question, they pointed at the cliff and said, "My daughter disappeared here just now. It seems she fell in!"
As they spoke, Qingying and Qingzhi stepped forward to push the cliff wall, but even if they tried their best, they couldn't move the cliff wall even a little bit!
"Get out of the way!" Huo Xifei stepped forward, gathered his luck and internal energy, and slapped the cliff with one palm!
However, the cliff still did not react at all, only some small rocks fell from above!
"Are you sure that the second girl disappeared from here?" Huo Xifei asked with a frown.
"Sure, it's right here!" Qingzhi said hurriedly, "Qingying and I saw it clearly!"
At this time, Huo Wan also ran over, crying as she ran: "Brother, where is Sister You? Why is Sister You gone?"
Huo Xifei suppressed his anxiety and comforted Huo Wan, saying, "Don't worry, your sister You will be fine. We will find her right away!"
"Yeah!" Huo Wan's eyes were red from crying. "Brother, please find Sister You as soon as possible. It's too dangerous in this deep forest!"
Huo Xifei touched Huo Wan's hair and ordered Pingshan: "Come with me to find Miss Yuan Er!"
The guard was ordered: "Go down the mountain, gather some people and come here to look for Miss Yuan Er. Remember, this matter must not be made public!"
"yes!"
Huo Xifei and his group were extremely anxious, while Yuan Ziyu was protecting his head and face tightly and rolling down a slope.
She had just dug out the ginseng and was very happy to see that it was almost fifty or sixty years old.
Seeing some smaller ginseng nearby, he asked Huo Wan to deliver the dug ginseng to Huo Xifei first.
Yuan Ziyu had just dug up two ginseng seedlings and put them into the Qiongjiang Pavilion when she suddenly noticed a shadow next to her, rushing towards her face!
Yuan Ziyou was startled and quickly dodged to the side, barely avoiding the attack of the shadow. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a silver ring snake.
The silver ring snake failed to pounce and crashed into the cliff wall, spitting its tongue towards Yuan Ziyu. This snake is extremely poisonous, but its venom sac is a good thing.
Now that Yuan Ziyou is immune to all poisons, he is not afraid of the silver ring snake and plans to catch it.
Yuan Ziyu leaned against the cliff and suddenly made a move. With lightning speed, she pinched the snake's vital point. But just as she pinched the snake's vital point, Yuan Ziyu felt something was wrong with the cliff behind her. Before she left the cliff, the cliff suddenly loosened, as if a door had opened.
Yuan Ziyu lost his footing, leaned back suddenly, and fell into the cliff.
Then, the cliff suddenly closed again.
Once the cliff wall closed, it was pitch dark inside. Yuan Ziyu could not control the momentum of falling backwards, and vaguely felt that this was a slope sloping downwards. He had no choice but to throw away the silver ring snake in his hand, holding his head and face tightly, and rolled down.
Although the slope was smooth, it was a bit narrow. Yuan Ziyu would occasionally bump into the mountain wall next to it, causing her pain. There were also some protruding stones on the mountain wall, which would occasionally scratch her skin.
Yuan Ziyu sighed in his heart, those stones were not round, and he was afraid that at least blood marks would be left on them!
It was a long time before Yuan Ziyu realized that she had fallen to the bottom of the cave. As soon as she reached the bottom, she felt a heat wave coming over her.
"Hiss!" After falling all the way down, Yuan Ziyu felt pain all over her body. She quickly touched her arms and legs and moved them around. She found that apart from the scratches caused by the stones, there were no other obvious injuries, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while, Yuan Ziyu got up from the ground, took out a tinder from his purse, shook it gently, and the tinder started to burn.
Only then did Yuan Ziyu see clearly the situation in the cave.
When he saw the situation in the cave clearly, Yuan Ziyu suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the ginseng had produced seeds in April, and no wonder the cave was so hot. It turned out that there was a hot spring at the bottom of the cave.
Yuan Ziyu approached the hot spring with a fire starter and saw bubbles bubbling in the hot spring, which seemed to be quite hot.
Yuan Ziyu approached the hot spring, put his hand close to it to feel it, and shook his head with a sigh. Although the appearance of hot springs in this mountain is a good thing, the temperature of this hot spring is too high. It is located near the inner circle of Yuetan Mountain, so it is impossible to build a hot spring villa there. It is really a pity.
Yuan Ziyu stood up again and carefully examined the cave with the light of the fire stick.
There was nothing in the cave except an entrance and a hot spring. Yuan Ziyu looked up at the place where she had rolled down and frowned slightly. The slope was too steep and she could not climb up by herself. Moreover, she clearly remembered that the cliff wall closed automatically when she fell in.
There was actually a secret door on the cliff!
However, even Yuan Ziyu himself didn't know how he had triggered the secret door on the cliff. It seemed that Huo Xifei and the others must not have found it, otherwise they would have followed him down long ago.
Therefore, it should be impossible to return along this steep slope!
Well, now there is only one way!
Yuan Ziyu turned his head to look at the cave entrance and squinted his eyes, but he didn't know where the cave entrance led to!
Forget it, since she has come in and can't go back the same way, she might as well give it a try. After all, she still has the Qiongjiang Pavilion, so no matter what, she can protect herself.
Thinking of this, Yuan Ziyu raised his foot and walked towards the cave entrance.
Leading out of the cave entrance is a long tunnel. Yuan Ziyu looked carefully at it with the light of the tinder, and couldn't help but feel puzzled. This tunnel was obviously not formed naturally, so who dug this tunnel here?
