Mu Qingyun glanced at her, turned his head to Yu Mingxi and Ruoping, and said, "I'm about to enter the mountain, you guys go back." ”

Yu Mingxi knew that there was only one path into the mountain in front of him, and Mu Qingyun would not let them follow him anymore, so he turned over and dismounted and wanted to help Mo Li, but Ruoping took the first step to help her down.

He took off a bag from his horse and handed it over: "Inside is a change of clothes, be careful on the road." ”

"Well, with Qingyun here, you can rest assured." Mo Li nodded.

Mu Qingyun took a step forward, took the burden over, carried it on his back, and said, "Let's go, if you delay any longer, you will have to spend the night in the mountains." ”

Yu Mingxi glanced at Mo Li deeply, his lips moved a few times, but he still swallowed back the words of advice.

Seeing that Mu Qingyun took Mo Li to step on the path in the forest and walked farther and farther, until the figures of the two disappeared into the woods, Ruoping said softly: "I can't see it, let's go." ”

The two men tied the other two horses to their horses and rode back along the path.

"Can't you put it down?" Ruoping suddenly asked.

"Huh? What did you say? Yu Mingxi was immersed in her own thoughts, and she didn't hear her clearly.

Ruoping tugged at the corners of his lips, revealing a helpless and somewhat bitter smile: "I said...... If we don't hurry up, we'll have to spend the night in the mountains. ”

After that, he ignored Yu Mingxi and ran forward.

……

The road up the mountain is getting rougher and rougher, and the surrounding woods can block some cold winds, but because of the dense woods, it is more strenuous to walk. After walking for half an hour, the cloak on Mo Li's body had been blown several times, and his steps were staggering more and more.

Mu Qingyun looked back at her panting appearance and asked, "Do you want to rest for a while before leaving?" ”

Mo Li held his waist with one hand, and waved his other hand and said, "No need, let's leave quickly." ”

"But you don't look good right now." Mu Qingyun couldn't help but be a little worried.

"Otherwise, you can pull me, and I can save some effort." Mo Li said. As a soul from the modern age, she didn't think there was anything wrong with letting him pull it.

Facing the little hand stretched out to him, Mu Qingyun hesitated for a moment, but still shook it.

The hand in the palm of the hand is small, soft as a ball of cotton, with a coolness. Let him can't help but feel hot at the root of his ears, don't look over his head and move forward.

Being pulled by someone, Mo Li felt a little more relaxed, Mu Qingyun's hands were slender but very powerful, especially wrapped in warmth, and his hands were not as cold as before.

After walking for another half hour, he came to a cliff, and when he opened the dense branches, a hidden hole was revealed.

Mu Qingyun took off a water bladder from his waist and handed it to Mo Li.

Mo Li took it, pulled off the cork on it and poured a big mouthful, which almost choked her to death, and even the water bladder in her hand fell to the ground: "Ahem, cough, cough...... Bathe...... Ahem...... This is...... Ahem......"

"This is a strong liquor, drink it to warm your body, who made you drink so much!" Mu Qingyun patted her on the back.

It took a long time for Mo Li to come to his senses, his eyes were red and he glared at Mu Qingyun angrily: "You didn't say it...... Ahem...... Is it wine...... Ahem......"

"Okay, okay, okay, blame me! Oh, drink saliva and press it again. Mu Qingyun took off another water bladder from his waist.

Mo Li patted his chest and coughed twice, and asked angrily, "Are you sure it's water this time?" ”

"Don't worry, it's definitely water."

Mu Qingyun threw the water bladder into her arms, picked up the one on the ground, most of the wine in it had been spilled, and sighed: "It's too wasteful!" With that, he poured down the little wine he had left.

Mo Li drank a few sips of water, finally stopped coughing completely, and stuffed the water bladder back into Mu Qingyun's hand: "I'm fine, let's go." ”

The two entered the cave and covered the entrance to the cave again.

"There's some danger here, you have to keep up with me. Be careful, try not to make a sound. Mu Qingyun shook the fire, held Mo Li's hand again, and said in a low voice.

Mo Li took a deep breath and responded in a low voice: "Got it, let's go." ”

The inside of this cave was even colder than the outside, and the ice on the roof of the cave shimmered a little in the faint light of the fire fold, and there was a thick layer of ice under the feet and on the walls of the cave. Fortunately, after drinking a large sip of spirits just now, Mo Li didn't feel so cold.

The soft leather boots on her feet had already been wet after stepping on the snow all the way just now, and now every step on the ice would be slippery. She held Mu Qingyun's hand tightly and rubbed it forward carefully.

I don't know how long she walked, so long that Mo Li's legs became stiff and numerous, she gritted her teeth and moved her steps with difficulty. I don't know if it's because of nervousness, or because of drinking, a layer of fine sweat oozes out of my body, the strength of the wine slowly dissipates, the cold air hits up from the wet feet, and the body begins to chill.

Mu Qingyun noticed that the little hand in his palm was getting colder and colder, and began to tremble a little, and when he looked back, he couldn't help but be shocked, only to see that Mo Li's face was pale, and his lips were bloody.

Seeing him coming, Mo Li hurriedly told him that he was okay with his mouth, urging him not to stop.

Mu Qingyun gritted his teeth, tightened his hands, and continued to drag Mo Li forward.

Gradually, the ice became less and less, and the ice on the ground and the walls of the cave turned to hoarfrost, and the temperature was finally not so low. After going forward for a while, the frost melted away, and Mu Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Lili, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, how long will it take to arrive?"

"It's not far away, and although the road ahead is narrow, it will get easier and warmer to walk." Mu Qingyun untied the water bladder from his waist again, "Let's rest before leaving." ”

"Are you sure it's water?" Mo Li's eyes were full of suspicion.

Mu Qingyun laughed: "You don't want to drink now, you have spilled it all." ”

After a short rest, the two moved on.

There are many forks in the cave, winding and twisting, but Mu Qingyun walked forward without hesitation, obviously very familiar with this place.

The further you go, the narrower the hole becomes, until it is only wide enough for one person. However, as Mu Qingyun said, the temperature was getting higher and higher, and Mo Li even felt a little hot.

Finally, there was a glimmer of light ahead, and after walking a little further, the light became brighter and brighter, and it was obvious that he was about to get out of the cave.

Mu Qingyun said, "It's coming soon." ”

As soon as Mo Li thought that she would be able to see Murong Chu soon, she felt that her steps were brisk, and she pushed Mu Qingyun in front of her: "Then let's go!" ”

"Hey, don't push me, it's dangerous!"

When Mu Qingyun pushed away the vines at the entrance of the cave, Mo Li understood why he said that it was dangerous - there was no road outside the cave at all, and he looked down tentatively, and Mo Li was shocked to find that they were now standing on the cliff, and there was an abyss under their feet. If she had used some more force just now, I am afraid that she would be able to push Mu Qingyun directly out of the hole and fall down.

"This ...... How is this going to go? ”
