Chapter 33 8
Yunyi circled the canyon back and forth, and based on the solar energy in the sky, she roughly determined that it was oriented from northwest to southeast. Four or five miles southeast of where she landed was a precipice, and about four or five miles in the opposite direction, she was blocked by a pool of water.
The pool looked very clear, but the bottom was not visible at all. There were sheer cliffs on both sides, and the length to the opposite bank was estimated to be more than two hundred meters. The opposite side was also a cliff, so it can be inferred that the pool must have passed through the mountain. As for what happened after passing through, that remains unknown.
This was a good thing for Yunyi. With cliffs all around and poisonous creatures above, the area below was enclosed as a small, secluded world.
Those who discover this place can basically enjoy it all to themselves.
However, just to be on the safe side, she still picked up some small stones and set up a small array. This would not only confuse anyone who accidentally wandered in, but also prevent some animals from breaking in and damaging the medicinal herbs.
After doing all this, she dug up a ginseng and a basket full of other medicinal herbs before preparing to go back. However, she gave up on going back from the side she had come down to and chose the other side instead.
He threw the grappling hook up, grabbed the rock, and with a burst of strength, he flew up into the air.
After finding a foothold on the cliff face, they threw the grappling hook up again.
Because her arm strength had not yet reached its peak, she could only throw the object up to about ten meters at a time, so it took her three attempts to reach the top of the cliff.
The canyon is only forty or fifty meters wide, so you can see the other side at a glance from here. That's where Yunyi went down.
Although they are only such a short distance apart, the directions they take to go down the mountain are completely different.
Qinglong Mountain is located to the east of Xiajiazhuang. It is said that if you cross it, you will be in the territory of Longdong Prefecture.
The original owner of this body had never been to Longdong Prefecture, so naturally she didn't know what the situation was like there.
Yunyi didn't know either, but she decided to go down the mountain from here to take a look. At worst, she could just go back a day later.
This side of the hillside is gentler; at least it's not a steep, straight slope all the time. Of course, this applies to Yunyi as well.
However, in such a dense forest, accidents can happen unexpectedly.
Without paying attention, she stepped into a trap set by the hunter. Fortunately, Yunyi reacted quickly, and her grappling hook flew out instantly, getting tangled in a nearby tree, which stopped her fall. Then, she flipped back to the ground.
However, at this moment, the animals that had fallen into the trap began to squeak.
She initially didn't want to pay attention, since someone had set it up and she couldn't expect to reap the benefits without sowing. However, when she saw the little creature at the bottom of the pit, she couldn't help but laugh. It was the same little fox she had released.
The reason it was able to recognize her was that the little guy recognized Yunyi first and was squeaking. However, because his leg injury had not yet healed, his movements were not very large, but he seemed very anxious.
"Why is it you again?" Yunyi had no choice but to go down again and take the little guy out. However, she put two taels of silver down there because the little guy had eaten most of the pheasants and rabbits at the bottom of the pit.
The little fox nestled obediently in Yunyi's arms, squeaking twice as if it were feeling a little aggrieved.
Yunyi smiled and put it down: "Alright, be careful next time." Then she turned to leave, but she had to stop after only two steps because the little fox had jumped into her basket by itself.
"You want to come with me?" Yunyi frowned.
The little fox seemed to understand Yunyi's words, nodding vigorously, its big tail wagging happily.
Yunyi sighed: "You can follow me, but you have to be obedient, or I'll turn you into a scarf."
The little fox shrank its neck, but soon began to squeak happily.
"From now on, you'll be called Eighteen." Yunyi gave the little fox a name. Monkeys are called Sixteen, so Eighteen makes perfect sense.
Because the little fox's leg injury hadn't fully healed, it stayed in the basket.
Not long after they left, the little fox, which had been looking around in the basket, suddenly patted Yunyi with its paw. Yunyi nodded and then quickly climbed a big tree, using the huge canopy to cover its body.
Not long after, a man covered in blood was seen staggering towards them, but he was quickly caught up by several masked men in black.
Although the injured man was seriously wounded, he did not give up and continued to fight the man in black. He even used a desperate fighting style, only attacking and not defending. As long as he could kill, he did not care if he was injured again.
Yunyi frowned. She had encountered this scene many times before. It was usually a good person being chased by bad people, and then they would meet someone who would save them.
As the one who undertakes the mission, Yunyi is always the savior.
But this time, she didn't want to get involved. After all, she was no longer a mission taker, and she was just an ordinary village girl now, not wanting to interfere with other people's fates.
The man below was getting more and more wounded, but more and more men in black were also falling down.
In the end, only two Black people remained, and the man couldn't hold on any longer and knelt on one knee.
The two men in black exchanged a glance, then charged forward simultaneously, determined to kill the man.
The man roared and then used his last strength to unleash a devastating sword strike, the powerful energy of which snapped the surrounding trees in half.
The two men in black stared wide-eyed as their stomachs were ripped open, their internal organs spilling out onto the ground, before collapsing to the floor with a thud.
The man instantly collapsed to the ground.
Whether it was her imagination or not, Yunyi felt that when the other person fell backward, it seemed as if they made eye contact with each other through the gaps in the leaves.
Regardless of whether the other party had actually seen her or not, now that the battle was over, she had no reason to stay in the tree any longer, so she jumped down.
The man's lips curled slightly, he raised his hand, and then closed his eyes.
Yunyi quickly checked and found that the other party was still breathing, meaning he was not dead. She then took out the ginseng, broke it off, and stuffed a piece into the other party's mouth. After tearing off the black-clad man's clothes, she bandaged the man's wounds again.
Fortunately, she had some medicine powder for treating external injuries on her, which was given to her by Doctor Wang, who knew she would be going up the mountain, so it would come in handy.
Unexpectedly, she didn't use it herself, but gave it to someone else.
Moreover, the other person had many wounds, so the entire bottle was used.
Wang Tianshun was skilled at treating external injuries. His self-made wound medicine was very effective. Combined with her acupuncture, the wounds quickly stopped bleeding.
It wasn't good to leave such a big man in the mountains, but she couldn't take him down with her. So she placed him on the branch of the big tree where she had been hiding and tied him with vines so he wouldn't fall or be discovered. "I'm a widow, I can't take you back with me. So, whether you survive or encounter danger depends on your fate."
