"I didn't want to compete with you for the throne, but you insisted on killing me."
"Heh, it's not certain who will die yet. Men, fire arrows! Kill them all, leave no one alive..."
"Father, why didn't you wait for me? Why didn't you wait for me? Why did you abandon me..."
Why did you leave me? Don't leave me...
Ye Qiuxuan's eyes darkened as she listened to Bai Qingqing spouting all sorts of nonsense.
Seeing Bai Qingqing talking nonsense and then bursting into tears, Ye Qiuxuan immediately stopped listening to her rambling.
He then began wiping away Bai Qingqing's tears.
Time passed second by second amidst Bai Qingqing's ramblings and tears, and the sky grew completely dark.
Then the moon and stars appeared.
Fireflies flitted about in the woods on both sides of the road, and strange bird calls could be heard from time to time.
A moment later, the young man arrived at a hilltop and looked ahead. In the distance, he could see the brightly lit, neon-lit city below.
The road began to meander and descend, becoming increasingly steep.
Beyond the concrete railings on the outside of the highway lies a sheer cliff, with a constant chilling night wind blowing up from below.
Looking out, it was a bottomless, pitch-black abyss.
After shivering involuntarily from the night wind, the young man driving the car closed all the windows.
And the vehicle speed was reduced.
"Brother, this road is too steep and has many turns. You need to slow down, otherwise it's too dangerous and the brake pads won't hold."
How is your wife?
The young man driving saw how nervous Ye Qiuxuan was about Bai Qingqing, and also noticed that the two were a perfect match.
They mistakenly thought that Ye Qiuxuan and Bai Qingqing were a young couple.
Ye Qiuxuan was now completely focused on Bai Qingqing, wishing he could carry her to the hospital at the foot of the mountain. He had no intention of talking to the young man driving and didn't explain further: "Okay, brother, safety first."
"She still has a high fever and is still talking nonsense."
"Oh, I see! She's been burning up for almost forty minutes now. I'd better try to drive as fast as I can!"
The young man stopped talking and focused on driving.
However, the road was too steep, and there was a bend every hundred meters or so. The young man tried his best, but the car was still not going fast.
While wiping away Bai Qingqing's tears, Ye Qiuxuan looked ahead and suddenly saw mud, green weeds, and fist-sized pebbles rolling down the side of the road about twenty meters ahead.
Landslides are most likely to occur on this type of road. For safety reasons, Ye Qiuxuan hurriedly shouted, "Stop the car! Stop the car now!"
Upon hearing Ye Qiuxuan's words, the young man driving immediately slammed on the brakes without hesitation.
The car wasn't going fast, but the road was too steep, so it traveled another ten meters or so before stopping.
The car had just stopped when, in the next moment, under the car's high beams, Ye Qiuxuan saw a spot about ten meters ahead where mud, small stones, and weeds had rolled down.
It's just a patch of soil from top to bottom.
With a deafening roar, the entire road ahead was covered, and a small hill three or four meters high was formed.
Many pieces of mud and rocks rolled down the cliff outside the road, and loud noises of mud and rocks rolling down could be heard continuously from ahead.
The young man driving the car went limp the moment he saw the scene, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
