…………
There is one more person in the cave.
He is a young man, wearing a green cloth robe, with a bun on his head, and his movements are quite neat. He put down a package and a bamboo box and signaled: "You should wash up and change your Taoist robes. There is food in the box, please help yourself!"
Yu Ye was stunned.
The man who suddenly appeared was about the same age as him, and his clothes were very different from ordinary people. He didn't look like a hunter in the mountains or a descendant of the Yan family. However, he seemed to have no ill intentions and actually sent him food and a change of robes.
What...taoist robe?
Yu Ye couldn't help but ask: "Are you..."
The young man said calmly: "Gu Yu."
"Gu Yu?"
"My surname is Gu. On the day I worshiped at the mountain gate, it rained heavily. Master gave me the Taoist name, Guyu."
The man who called himself Guyu was straightforward, but Yu Ye's heart was filled with doubts.
"I mean...where is this place?"
"Xuanhuang Mountain."
"ah……"
Yu Ye was speechless.
Guyu smiled and turned around to leave, not forgetting to say: "If anything happens, just call me!"
Yu Ye was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly chased after me and asked, "Who caught me here? How could he steal my belongings?"
Guyu's steps were extremely fast and he walked into the cave entrance in the blink of an eye. After several stone steps, there is a stone door. He closed the stone door with his hand and reminded in a low voice: "This is the restricted area of Xuanhuang Mountain. It is best to stay here. Don't ask questions. Don't dare to talk..."
"boom--"
Just as Yu Ye caught up, the stone door closed. He reached out and pushed hard, but the stone door didn't move at all. Just go back the way you came, run to the cave entrance on the left and look around for a while, then turn around and run to the cave entrance on the right, and walk directly across the pool. Outside the cave, there are also steep cliffs, with rapid waterfalls hanging straight down, and water flowing dozens of feet down to form a lake, but it is covered in fog and it is difficult to tell the depth. He had to retreat into the cave, but his heart was up and down and he could not calm down.
At this moment, he was both shocked and angry.
He was in a coma for seven days and came to Xuanhuang Mountain in a coma.
Isn't Xuanhuang Mountain the same Lingshan Taoist school that Chen Qi practices?
He was still making random suspicions before, but he woke up like a dream at this moment. Although he escaped from the Yan family's pursuit in the wild, he fell into the hands of the enemy again.
No need to think too much, it must be Chen Qi who caught him in Xuanhuang Mountain!
Only that villain could do such a despicable and shameless act! And the blood debt he owed to Yujiacun has not yet been repaid, so he is not afraid of seeking revenge from him...
"boom--"
Old and new hatreds welled up in his heart, and Yu Ye couldn't suppress his grief and anger, and punched the ground. He didn't notice the blood drawn from his fist, and slowly held his head in his hands, falling into inexplicable pain.
The enemy is right in front of you. Instead of being able to avenge you, you are caught by him and your life and death are at your mercy.
There is nothing more humiliating than this.
What’s more is sadness and helplessness!
He had just escaped from the dungeon of the Yan family, and in the blink of an eye he became a prisoner of Xuanhuang Mountain again.
Now that he fell into the hands of Chen Qi, how could he spare himself. Rather than being humiliated and dying, it would be better to jump off the cliff and kill yourself!
Yu Ye raised his head fiercely, his slightly red eyes showing determination. And a moment later, he lay on the ground and huddled up with a guilty look.
If we leave like this, how can we be worthy of Qiu Bo, Yu Ergou, and the dead uncles and brothers?
…
As dusk falls, the sky gradually darkens. The once bright cave melted into the deep dusk.
A young man named Guyu appeared in the cave again. When he saw Yu Ye lying on the ground without washing or changing clothes or eating, he threw down a piece of animal skin mattress and turned around to leave.
The next day.
In the early morning, Guyu appeared again.
Yu Ye was still lying on the ground, as if asleep, still not eating or drinking, exactly the same as yesterday.
"Why bother!"
Gu Yu muttered and shook his head. When he left and returned, it was already dusk. Seeing that Yu Ye was still sleeping, he couldn't help but persuade him: "You are a mortal body and don't know the art of fasting. Even if your meridians are sealed, you still can't stand the hunger for days. Listen to my advice and eat something." !”
Yu Ye was still lying on the ground, as if asleep, without raising his head, but asked aloud: "Where is Chenqi? He caught me here, why is he hiding and refusing to show up?"
"You recognize Senior Brother, don't you..."
Gu Yu responded immediately, but before he could finish his words, he looked back with a guilty conscience, and repeatedly blamed himself: "Oh, I'm talking too much again!"
Yu Ye just thought he was hiding something and snorted: "Chenqi, you despicable villain!"
"How dare you insult Senior Brother..."
Guyu covered her mouth with her hand, turned around and ran away. With a "bang", the stone door closed.
Yu Ye turned over and lay on his back.
I haven't eaten for many days and am already dizzy with hunger. And once I think of the dust rising, I also forget about hunger. That guy is trying every possible means to humiliate himself, how can he accept his food?
However, there is an old saying in the village: when you are full, you are lazy and when you are hungry, you are sleepy.
People who are hungry tend to feel sleepy and weak.
Yu Ye closed his eyes and fell into a drowsy sleep...
"boom--"
As the sound of the stone door opening came, Yu Ye opened his sleepy eyes.
It's another early morning.
Looking out through the hole, the mist is thick and the morning light is changing. In a trance, it makes people feel as if they are in the clouds, and they just want to be as misty as the wind and carefree for thousands of miles.
Well, what a joy it would be if the illusion came true!
"Why are you on hunger strike?"
No one is on a hunger strike, they just want to prevent Chenqi’s plot from succeeding.
Yu Ye looked at the scenery outside the cave crazily, immersed in his reverie. He didn't bother to pay attention to the questions coming from inside the cave. No matter how Gu Yu persuades him, he will never bow his head and give in.
No, that's not Guyu...
Yu Ye turned over and got up.
As expected, it was not Guyu, but a woman in a blue shirt.
I saw her face covered with a cloth kerchief, with a slender figure, her hands behind her back, and an elusive look in her eyes.
"Baizhi——"
Yu Ye was in disbelief.
The woman had conflicts with him, and was no stranger to him. She was Bai Zhi, the young lady of the Bai family, a disciple of the Xuanhuang Sect, and Chen Qi's junior sister.
Chen Qi has always been regarded as a life and death enemy, but he has forgotten that there is also Bai Zhi. Chen Qi has lost his conscience and killed innocent people. As his junior sister, how can Bai Zhi be cleared of any involvement.
"I didn't expect it was you..."
Yu Ye suddenly understood and said bitterly: "For the Jiao Dan on my body?" He nodded, patted his chest and said: "Whether you want the Jiao Dan or not, you will die!"
I thought Chen Qi was sinister and vicious, but who would have thought that his junior sister would be even more terrifying!
This Bai Zhi actually knew where she was going and secretly set up an ambush for a sneak attack. It can be seen that every move she makes is under her control.
Bai Zhi looked at Yu Ye quietly, her eyes seemed to be filled with surprise, and in the suddenness, there was also a bit of surprise.
After not seeing him for a while, the former mountain boy has changed drastically. At this time, his hair was disheveled, his face was covered with dirt and blood, and his tattered robe could not cover his body. He was in a miserable and miserable state. What didn't change was his eyes, which showed ignorance, fearlessness, and a bit of wild arrogance.
Bai Zhi raised her eyebrows and said softly: "You are colluding with the thieves, destroying tombs, robbing caves, killing people and stealing goods. What should I say? What will be the consequences if you are handed over to the Yan family?"
Yu Ye couldn't help but froze.
The trip to the Yan family became a stain that he could not erase. Even though he is also a victim, he is still unable to defend himself and prove his innocence.
Bai Zhi's beautiful eyes twinkled and she continued: "It's not your fault that you hate my senior brother. There were many misunderstandings about Jiao Dan before. The difficulties in Yujia Village are not as you imagine. There is another person who harmed the folks in Yujia Village, and it was the Northern Qi Dynasty. The ancient trees of the mountain. Senior brother was ashamed of being associated with him and killed him. He made up for his fault and avenged Yujia Village. Even so, he has violated the sect rules. If he returns to Xuanhuang Mountain in the future, he will be severely punished. "
Yu Ye snorted secretly.
This Miss Bai and Miss Bai, with just a few words, were able to get rid of Chen Qi's crime, but I was afraid that the more than thirty people in Yujiacun would not agree.
Bai Zhi seemed to have read through his mind and said to herself: "It's up to you to believe it or not."
"Why were you caught here?"
"In order to resolve the grudges! After senior brother returns to the mountain, you confront him face to face, and my master will administer justice. What is right and what is wrong must be determined. Before that, you are not allowed to leave, so as not to cause trouble and waste all my hard work!"
"Where's my bag?"
Yu Ye had a conflict with Bai Zhi. In his opinion, the other party was an arrogant person who didn't like to joke. Today, she speaks in eloquent words and is so persuasive that it is difficult for people to refute and question. Yu Ye could only try to get his things back and calm down the resentment in his heart.
However, in the several conflicts with Bai Zhi, he was always the one who suffered in the end.
"oh?"
"A bag sewn from suede, used to store personal belongings, carried in the arms..."
"Never seen it before!
Yu Ye Shangzi stretched out his hand and gestured, suddenly looking disappointed. He had no choice but to put down his hands and said angrily: "Put aside the grudge between me and Chen Qi for now, let me go home!"
"No!"
Bai Zhi's answer was still so certain.
"Why not?"
Yu Ye couldn't help but said anxiously: "Why do you lock me here?"
Bai Zhi said calmly: "The Yan family already knows that you are from Yujia Village. If you go home, won't you implicate the clan again? How can you prove that he killed innocent people indiscriminately before confronting my senior brother?" She continued without waiting for a response: "You can't go home, and you can't let go of your grudges. You can only stay here and wait for my senior brother to return to the mountain."
Yu Ye was silent again.
He is not good at sophistry, especially when it comes to a woman. Now that he is controlled by others and cannot help himself, perhaps all he can persist in is silence and stubbornness.
"Xuanhuang Mountain is where the Taoist sect is located, and outsiders are not allowed to enter without permission. It is an expedient measure to leave you in the cliff cave. Once you leave this place, you will violate the Taoist sect's rules. Remember!"
Bai Zhi has always had her hands behind her back since she appeared. Perhaps she had finished speaking, so she took out something from behind.
A bamboo stick.
Yu Ye recognized the bamboo stick at a glance and blurted out: "Uncle Qiu..."
It was Qiu Bo's bamboo stick. He threw it in the wilderness. He thought it would never be found again, but who expected it to appear in Bai Zhi's hands.
Bai Zhi looked at Yu Ye who was about to speak but hesitated, and said, "Since it is Qiu Bo's thing, how can you throw it away at will?"
Yu Ye said in surprise: "You...you recognize Qiu Bo?"
"He is not in his home village."
Bai Zhi responded, but was noncommittal. Then he raised his bamboo stick and tapped it lightly with his fingers. The seemingly ordinary bamboo trunk actually made a "ding-ding" sound, and there was a faint sound of metal fighting. She nodded slightly and said: "This is golden bamboo, unique to the southern region of Daze. It is as strong as gold and iron, and as light as rotten wood."
"Where did Job go?"
What Yu Ye is concerned about is not the golden bamboo, but the whereabouts of Qiu Bo.
"Take it!"
Bai Zhi handed the bamboo stick in her hand to Yu Ye and said without saying a word: "Look at you, you are dirty and smelly. Please wash up, change clothes, and have something to eat." After saying this, she clapped her hands in disgust and turned around. When leaving, he left another sentence——
"I know a little bit about Qiub. When it's time to say it, I will naturally say it!"
