Gu Sang shook her head. There must be something going on, but she couldn't figure it out for the time being. She walked up to the fruit and reached out to touch it.
"Sangsang, be careful!"
Li's heart clenched with anxiety. She stared wide-eyed at Gu Sang, fearing for her eldest daughter's safety.
Although Li Rong didn't speak, the boy's muscles were tense, and his eyes were warily scanning his surroundings.
Gu Sang gave Li a reassuring look, then picked a fruit and took a bite.
If it's sweet, juicy, and tender, then this isn't a dream.
With that in mind, Gu Sang turned to the group and said, "Let's go out first."
Everyone was confused, but since Gu Sang had said so, they followed her out without saying a word.
After going outside and walking for a while, Gu Sang finally looked at Li Rong.
Do you still remember the road?
Li Rong nodded.
Although he didn't understand what Gu Sang was trying to do, he trusted her.
Seeing Li Rong nod, Gu Sang breathed a slight sigh of relief and then said, "Don't do anything now. Just follow your memory and see if you can enter the cave."
Li Rong had some doubts, but she didn't ask any questions. She nodded, turned around, and left.
At this moment, Li also came over and grabbed Gu Sang's hand.
"Sangsang, what's going on? Could we... could we have encountered some kind of man-eating monster?"
Although Li was also changing, personality is something that cannot be changed in a day or two, so she inevitably felt flustered and nervous at this time.
However, Gu Sang smiled and shook her head, then said, "Mother, don't worry, it's alright. Besides, how could such a good opportunity be a monster? Mother, have you forgotten that we've eaten our fill thanks to these things? And I still have silver in my arms. If it were really like this, then it would be a god coming to our rescue, wouldn't you say?"
Li was initially very nervous, but after listening to Gu Sang's words, she actually felt that Gu Sang was right.
She nodded.
“Yes, yes, Sangsang is right, that’s exactly right. I was confused.”
Gu Sang smiled but didn't say anything. She knew very well that Li was just confused because she was worried.
After waiting a while, they saw Li Rong return the way he came.
"how?"
Gu Sang spoke first, and everyone else looked at her.
At this moment, Li Rong's eyes held a strange look. He glanced at Gu Sang, his eyes filled with a hint of inquiry.
"We can't find it. There's no entrance. It's all mountains in front of us, completely blocking the way. There's no cave entrance."
After Li Rong finished speaking, she took a deep breath and continued after a while, "I was afraid that I was careless, so I kept testing the east side with my hands. When I got to the west side, it was still a solid mountain, without any weakness."
It was precisely because of this that Li Rong felt a little flustered after realizing that there must be some key to this.
It's hard to describe the feeling, but there is indeed a situation that makes people feel quite surprised.
This matter is clearly not as simple as it seems.
Gu Sang didn't feel much upon hearing this, but she still sensed from the matter that the situation was different.
She thought for a moment, then said, "Big Brother, do you remember the way?"
“I remember, eldest sister.” Da Wa stepped out from beside her. He wasn’t as tall as Gu Sang, but his eyes were full of determination.
Gu Sang nodded and then said, "Then go and see if you can find it. Be careful where you step."
"good!"
The eldest child went directly there.
Li watched Da Wa's departing figure with some worry, and thought of what Li Rong had just said. Her heart was in turmoil, and she couldn't calm down for a while.
"Sang Sang, what... what exactly happened? The cave is gone?" The last question was directed at Li Rong.
Li Rong nodded.
"Not a trace can be seen."
This is the most amazing and strange thing. Nobody knows what's going on, but everyone clearly knows that this is definitely not simple.
A perfectly good cave has simply disappeared. Can this really be considered a coincidence?
Most importantly, if any other issues arise, they might be difficult to handle later.
Let's wait for the eldest child to come back and see the results before making a decision.
Da Wa wasn't as meticulous as Li Rong, so he didn't take long and returned quickly. He then shook his head at Gu Sang.
"Big sister, that cave is indeed gone!"
This is absolutely amazing!
When Da Wa saw that the cave was gone, he was a little panicked and hurriedly ran back.
Gu Sang nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
Through the descriptions and verifications of these two people, Gu Sang already knew what was going on.
“Sangsang, this…this…the cave is gone? What about us…” Li was worried. They were relying on the things in the cave to survive. What would they do if it was gone?
This is something I really can't think about; just thinking about it makes me incredibly panicked.
Gu Sang smiled.
"Yes, let's go."
After saying that, Gu Sang took the lead and led the people up the mountain again.
When everyone followed Gu Sang to the top of the mountain, they indeed saw the cave again. After they went over, they found that the cave was the same as when they left, and even the bamboo basket that Sanwa had forgotten in the cave was still there.
"What...what exactly is going on?"
Li was stunned, looking terrified.
Li Rong had roughly guessed all of this, and then looked at Gu Sang.
"A common man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure."
That one sentence revealed everything.
Gu Sang glanced at Li Rong, and she really didn't expect that he could still remain calm after experiencing such a bizarre event.
But what is this?
Gu Sang put down her basket and started picking fruit, telling Dawa Erwa, who was standing there dumbfounded, to pick grapes.
"Sin? Unless they tied me up here, how could they find me even if they searched the entire mountain? This is probably God's gift to me. I crawled out of the gates of hell, wouldn't it be unreasonable not to give me some benefits?"
After she finished speaking, Gu Sang blinked slightly, showing no fear whatsoever, and even appearing quite pleased with herself.
Influenced by Gu Sang's words, Li Rong's initial worries gradually subsided, and she realized that it was just a feeling.
He nodded, then went down into the river to catch fish.
That night, the third branch of the Gu family was busy again.
After they had picked all the fruit, they carried it back to the thatched hut under the cover of night.
