Both of them stood with bated breath, not daring to make a sound.

After a while, the sound of shredding in the distance became louder and closer.

Is it footsteps?!

The two became more and more nervous, and Sang Yang hugged Qi Luo. Slowly leaning towards the cave wall on one side, and pulled her carefully against the wall.

Sang Yang blocked Qi Luo behind him, and pressed his right hand on the hilt of the sword.

Qi Luo didn't forget to squeeze the short stick in the palm of his hand.

Qi Luo's back was leaning against the mountain wall, but his chest was tightly attached to Sang Yang's back.

The cave was unusually shady, but both of them were soaked with nervous sweat.

The sound of the two of them deliberately slowing down could be faintly heard in the cave.

The sound of footsteps in the distance was closer, and there was a faint sound of talking.

As the footsteps approached, the content of the speech became clearer and clearer, and there was a strange echo to hear.

It was a man and a woman who spoke, but the footsteps sounded like there were more than a dozen people, and a few of them had light steps, so they must be people who knew martial arts.

There are so many people, he can treat one as ten, but he is afraid of hurting Qi Luo.

"Master Chen, what should I do next? Lately I feel like a lot of people are staring at me. The woman's voice was hoarse and a little rough, and when she heard it, it was the voice of a middle-aged woman, but Sang Yang unexpectedly felt very familiar.

"Do you know who's staring at you?"

The sound was very close, but there was no one to be seen...............

It turns out that the sound is here, separated by a wall.

Fortunately!

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

From the conversation between the men and women, Sang Yang found that they had not noticed anything abnormal.

He loosened the hilt of his sword, his palms drenched in sweat.

He wiped the sweat from his palms on the placket of his clothes, reached out and gently squeezed Qi Luo's hand.

The girl's hands were cold and piercing, but the palms were very sticky. There was a reassuring warmth in the palm of the boy's hand.

Don't be afraid!

The girl gently squeezed the boy's hand back.

Don't worry, I'm fine!

Both of them seemed to understand what the other wanted to express.

"I suspect it's someone from the Quanzhou Mansion." The middle-aged woman's voice came again.

Quanzhou Mansion!

Sang Yang's pupils shrank, could it be them?

"Why do you think so?"

"Lord Chen, a few days ago, a few officials from the Quanzhou Mansion came to our house. The next day, I felt like someone was watching me. ”

It turned out to be the hunchbacked woman? Sang Yang finally heard it.

"Official?"

"My lord, in fact, I don't think it's like an ordinary official. The young man at the head is extremely beautiful in appearance and has an extraordinary momentum, and he must be very human! The woman paused.

"Why do you attract officials? Did they find out about us? "The man known as Lord Chen sounds like a middle-aged man, but his accent is not like a person from Humble State, but like a person from Beijing.

"It shouldn't have been that they discovered us, they came to find Liu Kai for the fire in Quanzhou three years ago." The woman sneered, "They don't know that Liu Kai is dead, and they can't find out anything!" ”

As the line drifted away, the voice gradually became smaller, and Sang Yang held his breath and stood with his ears pricked up.

"How's things going?"

"Master Chen..................... That............... Side.................. I sent ..............." farther and farther away, and the woman's voice began to become more and more indiscernible.

The two men in the cave did not dare to move, and waited for a long time until they heard no more sound.

Teenagers and girls breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Luo, who breathed a sigh of relief, immediately felt that his calves were weak, and he wanted to sit on the ground.

As soon as the boy turned around, his arms wrapped around the girl's slender waist.

"Luoluo, are you alright?" The young man who hadn't spoken for a long time had a hoarse voice.

The girl looked up, the cave was a little dark, but she could still see the face of the boy who was close at hand full of worry.

The girl shook her head, a smile creeping up her bright face.

At such a close distance, even the tiny fluff on his face could be seen, and the boy was blinded by the girl's laughter, and his heart couldn't help beating violently.

"Plop, plop ............"

The girl suddenly found that her whole body seemed to be hanging on the young man's body, and her waist was also wrapped, and her face turned red when she brushed it.

The young man was startled, and quickly put down the hand holding the girl's slender waist, and said with a red face: "Luoluo, I didn't mean to." ”

"Don't worry about it, it's urgent, Ziyu doesn't need to care!" A girl who has always been generous, her voice has lost her usual neatness, and in her low voice, there seems to be a hint of coquettishness.

To ease the awkward atmosphere, the teenager cleared his throat.

"I think these people must be related to the case I investigated in Humble State. Luoluo, did you recognize that man's voice? ”

"No!" The girl shook her head.

Sang Yang turned around and began to look carefully along the stone cave.

The wall of the stone cave is smooth, and Sang Yang gently knocked on the stone wall, the echo is muffled, and the stone wall feels quite thick.

The carving marks on the surface of the stone wall are already very shallow, and I think that the stone cave has been in the cave for some years.

The stone cave they were in just now was only separated by a wall, but such a thick stone wall must not be able to penetrate the sound.

Sang Yang raised his head, there were some holes in the top of the stone wall, and he thought that the sound came from the holes above, so it would be so clear.

"Luoluo, the cave next door, have you ever been there?"

The girl shook her head, "I haven't been to this cave, I originally discovered it by accident with my cousins a few years ago, you come with me." ”

Qi Luo led Sang Yang and slowly walked towards the cave, the more he walked inside, the more open he became.

After walking about twenty meters, the cave suddenly became brighter.

At the top of the cave ahead, a side of the sky was exposed, and water was gurgling down the mouth of the cave.

The thin stream of water flows through a prominent corner of the stone wall, washing the stone wall smooth and translucent.

The curtain of water slid halfway down the stone wall, like a curtain of beads with broken threads, condensed into droplets of water and rolled down, forming a very shallow pool at the bottom of the cave.

The sunlight is refracted through the hole and sprinkled on the water curtain, and the water droplets are crystal clear, pouring down from the sky, which is truly beautiful.

"What a beautiful view!"

Listening to the boy's admiration, the girl's expression soared.

"This beautiful scenery is what we found before, and it is the most beautiful at noon."

The cavern continued to grow, narrower and darker.

"Ziyu, we have never gone any further." The girl, who was afraid of the dark, gently pulled the boy's cuffs.

"Luoluo, let's go back." The boy naturally took the girl's hand.

"Hmm!" The girl began to practice martial arts when she was young, and her small hands were as tender as fat, with only a slight thin callus on the fingertips.

That's nice!

The young man was full of joy and led the girl, and the two walked towards the entrance of the cave one after the other.

It wasn't until he reached the entrance of the cave that the boy let go of the girl's hand.

After passing through the bamboo forest, and then going to the ferry, when I returned to the Shen Mansion, the sun had already set in the west-
