Upon hearing about the request for help, Han Jianshu immediately said, "What kind of help? I'll help you with anything I can."
Master Zhen pointed to the room: "It's nothing serious, but I need you to go inside and keep an eye on Gu Rong. You can't leave for the next few days. Do you think that's okay?"
“Sure, no problem at all,” Han Jianshu was already worried about Gu Rong, and now that he heard he could go in, he quickly stepped forward and pushed open the door of the thatched hut.
Rongxin thought that these two were both children, and she was afraid that she could not even take care of them properly, so how could she take care of the other?
Before she could stop him, Han Jianshu had already crawled inside.
Rong Xin looked at Master Zhen with concern: "Master Zhen, they are still children, I'm afraid they can't take good care of themselves. Do you think I should go in?"
“You should handle the child’s problem yourselves. Going in won’t help. The environment on this mountain is not good. You should go and tidy it up quickly, or you’ll suffer tonight,” said Master Zhen, before leading his grandson into the thatched hut.
However, although it was the same door he entered through, the environment inside was not the same as the one he had just been in with Gu Rong.
They entered what looked like an ordinary thatched hut, with a portrait hanging in the center and two prayer cushions placed below it.
Master Zhen sat down on the prayer mat, and his grandson sat down beside him: "Grandpa, after they leave, can we leave too? I miss home."
“Yes, once this is over, we can go home,” Master Zhen said, raising his hand to rub his grandson’s head, a look of longing in his eyes.
"Great, I can finally go home!" Thinking about going home, the little grandson couldn't sit still on the futon.
Not to mention his grandson, even Master Zhen himself, after so many years away, had long missed going back.
Seeing his restless grandson, Master Zhen raised his hand and pressed his head down: "You must not disrespect the ancestor. Cultivate diligently."
"Okay," she said, but her mind was already wandering far away.
Before the two of them, Han Jianshu entered the thatched hut and was astonished by the unfamiliar decorations inside, looking around in surprise.
It looks like a small thatched hut from the outside, but once you go inside, it's a completely different world.
He looked for a long time but couldn't see Gu Rong's figure, so he couldn't help but shout loudly, "Gu Rong, Gu Rong, where are you?"
No matter how loudly he shouted, he didn't get a response from Gu Rong, and he couldn't even sense A Xi's presence.
Han Jianshu was worried that something had happened to Gu Rong, so he started searching the room, but he couldn't find her anywhere.
Having climbed the mountain for so long, Han Jianshu was already exhausted. After searching the room for who knows how long, he was completely worn out.
He reached the door on the first floor and tried to open it, but no matter how hard he tried, the door wouldn't budge and he couldn't open it at all.
Han Jianshu banged on the door and called out, "Aunt Rong, Xiaohe, can you hear me? Aunt Rong??"
No matter how he shouted, just like when he was looking for Gu Rong, there was no sound from outside.
The only difference was that he could hear Rong Xin and the others talking outside.
Xiaohe glanced at the thatched hut where Han Jianshu and the others had gone, thinking about Han Jianshu's instructions before going in, and looked at the two old men and Rongxin beside him: "The three of you, you wait here for them. I'll go down and buy some things and bring them back from the guesthouse."
When they arrived, they thought they could go back that day, or at the latest by tomorrow, so they didn't bring anything with them.
I didn't expect to have to stay here for two more days; I really need to go back and get some things.
Rong Liancheng frowned as he looked at the darkening sky. "It's getting dark now. It's not safe for you to go down. Let's wait until tomorrow."
This kind of dark environment is actually his home turf.
Moreover, Master Zhen said that there was no food on the mountain. He could go two days without eating, but the old people and the young children inside couldn't go without food.
Han Jianshu, in particular, has lost a lot of weight recently, I don't know what she's been busy with.
The environment on this mountain is already bad, and he would feel guilty if he didn't eat something good and got even thinner.
"Darkness doesn't affect me, but if Jian Shu comes out later, please let him know where I am and take care of him," Xiao He said, then walked directly down the mountain.
Rongxin originally thought that she came here for Gu Rong's sake, which was their family's business, and it was not good to keep troubling Xiaohe. She wanted to go down herself and let him stay on the mountain to wait.
Before they could even speak, the river had already flown far away from them.
Seeing his daughter's expression, Rong Liancheng stopped her, saying, "Alright, with our physical strength, going down there would only cause trouble for them. We'll thank them properly when we get back. Let's just wait here for now."
“Then Mom and Dad, you wait here. I’ll go in and tidy up the room so you can get some rest earlier. If Comrade Xiaohe comes back tonight, he can rest right away too.” Rong Xin put down the water glass in her hand, got up and walked into the thatched hut that Master Zhen had told them about.
"I'll help you," Fan Qi stood up and followed Rong Xin into the thatched hut.
Han Jianshu, who was pressed against the door, listened to the noise outside and called out a few more times, making sure that no one outside could hear him.
Exhausted, he slumped onto the sofa, wanting to rest for a while before continuing to look for Gu Rong. But he fell into a deep sleep just two seconds after lying down.
Gu Rong, who came in first, was still standing in the same spot where Master Zhen had stood before she left.
Ah Xi stayed by her side the whole time, while Gu Rong stood there motionless for a long time.
Ah Xi stepped forward and nudged Gu Rong with her hand: "Host, you've been shouting here for almost an hour, aren't you tired?"
Pushed like that, Gu Rong seemed to only just come to her senses, turning her gaze away from the second floor, and then shaking her neck: "Not tired."
He said he wasn't tired, but when he lifted his foot to take a step, he still swayed a little.
Feeling a tingling, numb sensation in her legs, as if tiny insects were crawling inside, Gu Rong couldn't help but swear: 'Damn, my legs are numb.'
Hearing that Gu Rong's legs were numb, A Xi, though not understanding what was wrong, quickly said, "Don't move, just stand there."
As she spoke, Ah Xi floated to the sofa and waved her hand, trying to put the sofa into her space, but found that she couldn't.
He tried several times, but found that everything in the room could only be touched, but could not be moved at all.
Seeing his actions, Gu Rong frowned and stopped him, saying, "Alright, stop it."
He then took a stool out of his spatial storage and sat down on it, hooking his buttocks on it.
Leaning back in the chair, Gu Rong rubbed her aching temples.
