"Childe......" Yu'er looked at the water and her tongue was dry, and she didn't know why.

"It's not too bad, the worst thing is that there's not even water down there. We had no choice but to jump. Du Xuan secretly complained that he was not very reliable in his calculation ability, the bark halfway up the mountain was enough, but he miscalculated such five meters, fortunately, there was water, otherwise he would have jumped down like this, and he would have been killed or injured.

Waiting for her strength to recover a little, Yu'er untied the rope around her waist, closed her eyes, and let go of her hands with Du Xuan's one-two-three.

Thump!

The water splashed high and suddenly merged into the rushing river.

......

The autumn sun stingy with its temperature, struggling through the steep overhanging cliffs and crashing limply on the shallows at the bend of the river.

The shallows here form an obtuse angle with the river, which effectively dissipates the force of the river's downward impact, making the river obediently turn down and become much more docile.

Day after day, the river rolled up the sand and rocks and pushed the shallows, and a little earlier, two people. To be precise, rolled up a young girl and the baby she was carrying.

Yu'er and Du Xuan had already woken up, vomited out the river water, and lay dying on the shallows.

The sun hits the face, the warmth is more than enough, and the warmth is insufficient.

Yu'er's thin shirt was wet, clinging to the initially developed weak body, Chu Chu was moving, but Chu Chu was pitiful.

"Childe, Childe......" The wind rose, the cold rose, Yu'er sobered up a lot, sat up, and took Du Xuan off and hugged him in his arms, only knowing the call of "Childe" and "Childe".

Sticking to Yu'er's arms, feeling Yu'er's faint body temperature, Du Xuan's body that began to cool slowly regained its vitality.

"Thanks to Yu'er, we came back to life, it's not safe here, we have to leave immediately. Du Xuan said slowly, covering Yu'er's scarred palm on his face.

As Du Xuan said, Yu'er threw the rope into the river, erasing the traces of their stay, and walked up the river bank without stopping.

Nearly noon, the two reached the spot where they had slipped off the cliff earlier. The rope that had saved them was still there, hanging alone five meters above the river.

"It would be safer to burn this rope. Du Xuan thought secretly, but he was helpless, so he let Yu'er continue to hold herself upstream.

Thirsty for river water, hungry for wild fruits, the next escape road is finally thrilling.

The sun sets and the moon rises, and the moon sets and the sun rises.

On the fifth day, following the growing sound of the water, they came to the source of the river.

The source is a waterfall, which flows straight down with a drop of tens of meters.

The source is hope and despair, which undoubtedly blocks their way.

......

And three more days and nights passed.

In a dry cave, Yu'er fell asleep with Du Xuan in her arms.

Du Xuan was awake, looking at Yu'er with round eyes, raising his hand and stroking a few strands of hair from Yu'er's cheeks.

The girl in front of her has experienced an extreme survival test, her brows are lightly locked in her sleep, and her delicate and lovely face has faded a little white, and she has a healthy flush.

In the past three days, under Du Xuan's command, Yu'er has completed a series of almost impossible tasks.

After countless failures, Yu'er finally succeeded in building a bonfire using Professor Du Xuan's method of drilling wood for fire.

At this time, the campfire was burning, and the heat continued to warm their bodies.

Next to the campfire, the wide leaves were washed and clean, and a few leftover grilled fish were placed on it. The fish was caught by Yu'er now learning Du Xuan's fishing techniques. The grilled fish is very tasty and there is no shortage of salt. The salt is obtained from the roots of the walnut tree, mashed and heated and crystallized.

With fire, fish, and salt, they can continue to live in the cave. The risk was not lifted, and they did not dare to venture down the river in search of a way to escape.

Du Xuan already had a general idea of what had happened since his rebirth.

Before Lord Lang Zhongling, who was in charge of the palace guards, led his troops to break into Huining Palace, Mrs. Ji sealed Du Xuan's bloodline and breath with pills, and Lang Zhongling did not find anything abnormal. When Tho Liangren heard the news, he forced Lang Zhongling to make a move, and Mrs. Ji borrowed Lang Zhongling's sword to pierce Du Xuan's abdomen, but did not hurt the internal organs.

After deceiving Lang Zhongling and Tho Liangren from the sky and the sea, Mrs. Ji ordered Yu'er to carry Du Xuan, who had fallen into a coma, out of the palace overnight, and was ambushed by several swordsmen as soon as she left the palace, and was killed by her grandfather who arrived in time.

Grandpa rescued Yu'er and Du Xuan, healed Du Xuan's injuries, found a mound ten miles outside the palace, built a new grave to hide people's eyes, and then hired a carriage and fled far away until he encountered a second ambush in Qingfeng Gorge.

The second kill had a total of four strengths, four black-robed killers were hired, two were killed by the grandfather, and the other two were killed by the man in white who arrived in time at the critical moment when they were about to reveal their employers' identities; the grandfather was then killed by Shangguan Feixue with a sword, and at the last moment when Yu'er and Du Xuan were about to be killed by Shangguan Feixue, there was another mysterious person at the bottom of the carriage, and he didn't know what means he used to frighten the horses, and rushed down the valley with the carriage, so that Yu'er and Du Xuan escaped in a thrilling way.

The reason for all this was that on the day of the archmage's accession to the throne, there was a strange sound in the sky, the bronze sacred tree used for sacrifice was shining, the high priest fainted, and the newborn Du Xuan was regarded as a disaster star, and was ordered to be killed by King Lu, and Mrs. Ji was convicted and banned from the harem.

It was late at night, and the bonfire was not extinguished.

Yu'er turned over slightly, even in her sleep, her hand was still subconsciously holding Du Xuan in her arms.

Feeling Yu'er's body temperature, Du Xuan's mind was full of fog before he frowned, and then went to his heart.

Who else but the monarch is plotting to kill himself? Who is the killer who even Yu'er and Grandpa don't know when to hide under the carriage? Why did he come to save himself?

Also, according to Yu'er, my mother has little contact with Tho Liangren, and she has never had a bad relationship, is there a shadow of this noble man in the palace behind this pursuit and killing?
