Neither of them thought that there was a cave in the deserted valley. There were green bamboos here. It no longer looked like the hidden forest path they had walked a few days ago. The ground was covered with bamboo leaves. No one must have been here before. Birds were singing all around. The air was fresh and natural, like a paradise. The two flew up the bamboo branches and used light skills to fly through the bamboo forest. In the distance, they saw an open space.
When I arrived at the open space, I saw mist lingering, and spring water emerging from the ground. After being baptized by sand and gravel, it converged into a shallow pool surrounded by natural gravel. The water in the pool was just warm to the touch in the palm of my hand. It was surrounded by mountains on three sides and one side. It was in the bamboo forest when they came, that they actually came to the source of the stream, the hinterland of the mountain.
It was obvious that they were on the wrong track.
Nalan Fengjin pointed at this place and smiled: "It's a good place to live in seclusion."
It was just an unintentional remark at first, but unexpectedly, Du Yuze looked at her with a faint twinkle in his eyes, which made her feel a little inexplicable. Then she heard him say lightly: "It would be nice if there was a bamboo house."
His eyes flashed and he said, "How about we rest here tonight? Then we can find a way out of the valley."
Nalan Fengjin nodded.
Du Yuze was obviously in no hurry to leave here. Nalan Fengjin was naturally not in a hurry. It was said to be one day, but they were still here the next day.
They are not in a hurry, but many people are anxious for them.
At this moment, Tianducheng has turned into a mess.
The dead soldiers in the mountains started to follow him all the way, but in this messy valley, they lost track of him without realizing it. Someone immediately went back to report. Phoenix Villa was also in chaos for a while.
After learning that Nalan Fengjin and Du Yuze both fell off the cliff, groups of people went to the bottom of the valley to search for them. Except for the people from the Du family, the entire Phoenix Villa was dispatched, and the two sides did not know each other. Several encounters resulted in fights.
Shutong and Chu Tianyou personally led people down to the bottom of the valley and discovered the horse's body. But they didn't find Du Yuze's body and Nalan Fengjin couldn't help but let go of her worries. Thinking that the two of them were not dead, they should have found a way out by themselves. They sent several waves of people to look around at the bottom of the valley, but because of this There are too many forked roads in the valley, and there is no gain after several attempts.
Nalan Hanyi and Nalan Hanqi were quite embarrassed when they left Tiandu City that day. Nalan Hanyi was injured, but there was no fear of his life. Later, he met Nalan Hanqi and returned to the capital. On the way, he heard Nalan Hanqi mention The incident of Nalan Fengjin and Du Yuze falling off the cliff was silent for a long time. Nalan Hanqi seemed unwilling to speak, so the two of them returned to Tiandu City in silence.
Nalan Fengjin and Du Yuze searched the area but did not find any exits. Four days had passed and they still did not leave. Nalan Fengjin tried to make some simple tableware with bamboo and just made a pair of bamboo chopsticks. , showed it to Du Yuze with great pride.
Du Yuze said: "Do you like it here?"
Nalan Fengjin nodded and said: "I like it very much!"
Du Yuze looked at her and asked softly: "How about we really build a bamboo house here?"
Hearing this, Nalan Fengjin's eyes lit up and he said, "Put up fences around the house, put bamboo tables and chairs in the yard, and raise a few pheasants and rabbits... But... can you build a house?"
This question stumped Du Yuze. Du Yuze was born into a wealthy family, so how could he build a house?
Seeing the embarrassment on Du Yuze's face, Nalan Fengjin smiled and said: "It would be great if we could go out and learn from those who built houses. We will come back and build slowly, and buy some daily necessities, and we must buy wine! Oh, come on! It’s been a long time since I had wine and rice...” Nalan Fengjin swallowed as he spoke.
Du Yuze smiled lightly and said, "Ajin, are you really willing to build a house with me here?"
Nalan Fengjin nodded and smiled without thinking, "Yes, I do."
Du Yuze held her hand tightly in his palm.
Coincidentally, the next day, Du Yuze told Nalan Fengjin that he found a cave halfway up the mountain. The cave was windy and might lead to another place.
The cave was difficult to navigate, and the other part led to an unknown place. Because they were not familiar with the road, the two of them groped for nearly an hour before exiting the cave. Outside the cave, there were overgrown weeds and towering trees. It was located on the mountainside, and they couldn't tell for a while. Where did it go? They used Qinggong to fly all the way down the mountain, and not far away, they found a forest path with horse hoof marks on it. The two were overjoyed and kept walking along the road.
