Qin Shu didn’t believe that she would do such a thing. “What happened after that?”
Although she didn’t remember what happened previously, if she had carelessly pushed the man down, she would have apologized at that time.
“After that, you took advantage of me and even tore my clothes,” the man said vividly.
The more he said, the more ridiculous it seemed. Qin Shu snorted, “I don’t believe it.”
“I can guarantee that everything I said is true.” The man held her hand tightly. “I’ll bring you to the city tower to take a look.”
Qin Shu glanced at the man. She still couldn’t believe that she was so fierce when she was young. Why would she tear the man’s clothes?
The tall and short figures of the two walked further and further away, leaving the stretched shadows behind them.
Han Xiao stood upright on the stone arch bridge. His gaze followed the slender figure for a long time. Only when she entered the stream of people did he slowly withdraw his eyes.
The Fengyue Moat had hardly changed. But it did alter slightly with the development of times.
After standing for an unknown period, he turned, walked down the stone arch bridge, and returned the way he came.
Fengyue Inn
Han Xiao had just walked in when he saw Hua Wuyan standing at the door as if he was waiting for him.
Hua Wuyan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Han Xiao return. “Where did you go?”
“I went out for a walk.” Han Xiao walked in.
Hua Wuyan followed him, “Have you taken dinner?”
“Yes.” Han Xiao walked up to the second floor.
Hua Wuyan looked at Han Xiao’s back and felt a sense of loneliness for some reason. He followed him with doubt……
Qin Shu and Fu Tingyu returned at 11 pm. It was not too late for the ancient Fengyue City.
After returning to the guest room, the man pulled the girl into the bathroom to take a shower.
When they came out, it was already past midnight.
The beds in the inn were all made of solid wood, slightly smaller than the bed in their master bedroom of Bright Garden. It was just right for the two of them to sleep.
Qin Shu nestled in the man’s arms and fell asleep in no time.
A light breath entered the man’s ears. He lowered his head to look at the girl and saw that she was already fast asleep. On the other hand, he was not sleepy at all……
The next day
The group gathered for breakfast. They did not chat at breakfast as they were in a hurry. After breakfast, they went on a light journey.
It took half an hour to walk from the ancient Fengyue City to the foot of Qi Mountain and the last known entrance.
Along the way, Fu Tingyu held Qin Shu’s hand and walked in front.
They came to a long bridge according to their memories. The bridge was about 30 meters long, and below it was a turbulent river.
Previously, when they walked across the bridge, the road to the mountain would appear on the other side.
Now, half the bridge was covered in fog. Standing at this end of the bridge, one could not see the shadow of Qi Mountain at a glance.
Qin Feng stared at the fog in front of him for a while and said, “Previously, the fog in the Qi Mountain was very thick, but it was not to such extent. Now, even the shadow of the mountain’s peak disappeared. Isn’t it strange?”
Yan Shuang was also very curious. She looked at Fu Tingyu and asked, “Do you want to go over and take a look?”
Fu Tingyu said, “My father said that if someone who does not understand the eight trigrams array barged in, it would be tough for them to walk out again. They might be trapped inside and not able to come out. “On the other side of the bridge, if my guess is right. It’s an array. As for what kind of array it is, we will only know once we enter.”
What he meant was that walking across the bridge was equivalent to entering an array. For people who didn’t understand array, wanting to get out was even more challenging than ascending to the heavens.
Han Xiao turned to look at Fu Tingyu. “You know anything about array?”
Fu Tingyu smiled. “I know a little about it.”
By saying this, it was already clear that he didn’t know much about array either.
Hua Wuyan glanced around and didn’t see any sign of the mountain. He said, “Then, didn’t we come all this way for nothing?”
Fu Tingyu stared at the half-exposed bridge in front of him. After thinking for a moment, he said, “I’ll go in and take a look.”
Qin Shu held the man’s hand tightly. “I’ll go in with you.”
The man directly refused. “You stay outside.”
Han Xiao took a step forward and said, “I’ll go in with you.”
Hua Wuyan also took a step forward and stood beside Han Xiao. “I’ll go in too.”
Yan Shuang was unwilling to be left behind. “I’ll go too.”
Qin Feng walked to Qin Shu’s side. He looked at Fu Tingyu. “Then I’ll stay with Ling Bao. But I think it’s better not to enter rashly. After all, none of us are proficient in array formations. Once we’re trapped inside, it’s hazardous.”
In the end, he reminded them.
“I think what Ling Feng said makes sense. If we enter rashly, we may activate the array. If we can’t break the array, we’ll never get out.”
After saying this, Fu Tingyu said in a low voice, “Among the few of you, choose one to go in with me.”
As soon as Fu Tingyu said this, Qin Shu said, “I’ll go with you.”
Fu Tingyu’s tone was firm. “No.”
He would never let her get into danger with him unless he was confident that he could handle the situation.
“Other than Fu Tingyu, I have the highest martial art strength here. You guys don’t have to fight.” Han Xiao looked at Qin Shu after he finished speaking. “Little Munchkin, you can also stay outside in peace.”
Hua Wuyan looked at Han Xiao’s leg worriedly and said, “Then I could tag along.”
Qin Shu ignored the others. She continued to hold the man’s hand tightly and said, “Don’t leave me behind. I’ll go wherever you go.”
Seeing that the girl insisted on following, the man’s tone softened. “Be good. I’ll go in and take a look and will be back soon.”
Yan Shuang also advised, “Ling Bao, Ling Yan is doing this for your good. If you go in, he’ll be distracted, and it’ll be even more troublesome.”
Han Xiao’s gaze turned towards Qin Shu. “Little Munchkin, be obedient.”
Qin Feng patted Qin Shu’s shoulder and said, “Ling Bao, you stay outside.”
Qin Shu glanced at them. She finally turned towards the man. “I don’t want to be separated from you for too long, so you must come out quickly.”
The man thought that she still insisted on going in. Hearing the second half of her sentence, he smiled. “Uh-huh.”
In the end, Fu Tingyu and Han Xiao went in first.
He brought some necessary tools and food, just in case.
Qin Shu watched the two of them walk onto the long bridge. They were almost the same height, wearing black casual clothes and carrying a travel bag. They gradually stepped into the thick fog and disappeared.
Her heart rose.
The array formation includes the Golden Shield Array, the Eight Trigrams Two Poles Array, the Seven Stars Eight Trigrams Array, the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Array, the Five Elements Eight Trigrams Array, the Six Directions Array, the Big Dipper Seven Stars Array, the Odd Gate Eight Trigrams Array, the Four Symbols Array, the Seven Deadly Soul Locking Array, and so on.
Regardless of the array formation, there was a certain level of danger.
Especially using the array formation to hide the traces of the mountain, one could say that it was not an ordinary array formation.
Although she had learned it, she was not proficient in it.
Qin Feng saw Qin Shu’s worried face and comforted her, “Ling Bao, don’t worry. They will come out soon.”
Hua Wuyan watched them disappear into the thick fog and could not help but feel worried.
Not only was he worried that they would not be able to break the array formation, but he was also worried about Han Xiao’s leg……
