Chapter 21: Caution

Ye Cheng walked around for a long time, but he didn't find any clues.

"It's better to be nosy, or curiosity will kill the ape...."

This kind of dangerous thing still has to be handled by the people of Chongyang Temple.

After Aunt Zhen Dao came back, he told her about it.

So Ye Cheng left the scene.

He left from Nanzhu.

Even before leaving, he cleaned up the traces left behind.

This is also just in case.

If the two shadows found out that he had been there, wouldn't it be the end of the calf?

Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years.

He can live forever, and he doesn't want to capsize in the gutter.

On the evening of the third day.

The two black shadows came to the bamboo forest again.

"Hey, they brought something?"

Ye Cheng still hid in the big tree by the lake in advance.

Is it a weapon?

It's not quite like that.

With doubts, Ye Cheng was still dormant.

When it was almost dawn, the two men quietly left.

Ye Cheng slept in the tree again before returning to the bamboo forest.

He immediately went straight to that location.

However, he kept an eye on it.

Instead of walking on the ground, he climbed and flew directly from the Nanzhu, which was just right for practicing the ape striking technique.

After arriving at the place, Ye Cheng hung upside down on a bamboo, his body hung down, and he looked at the ground carefully.

"Hey, there seem to be traces of movement here."

Ye Cheng's gaze locked on a place.

Although it is covered with a layer of bamboo leaves, there are traces of being turned, revealing some very fresh soil, scattered around.

Ye Cheng didn't go down.

Because he was not sure if the two men had set up any warning devices.

If the two find out that someone has been to the scene, it will be troublesome.

So he looked around again.

"Those two people just casually cleared the traces, it seems that they are much bolder, thinking that no one will come in the bamboo forest."

Ye Cheng analyzed in his heart.

In the first two times, the traces left by the two were relatively shallow, not to mention.

And this time, there are traces everywhere, very obvious.

Any person can see some clues.

So, Ye Cheng began to search along one of the most obvious traces.

He still didn't walk the ground.

As a white ape, he climbs and jumps in trees, faster and nimble than the ground.

At a sunken pit more than twenty meters away, Ye Cheng stopped.

"Are you digging a hole?"

Ye Cheng looked at the fresh soil piled up in the pit.

The two men didn't hide it.

With so much fresh soil, it's hard to hide it.

Moreover, this place is relatively remote, with dense bamboo forests, and except for the white ape of Ye Cheng, basically no one will come over.

And the two men poured all the earth they had dug up here.

"Is there any treasure hidden under the earth?"

Ye Cheng touched his furry chin and thought to himself.

He returned to his original place, looked at the place where it was covered with bamboo leaves, but had obviously moved, and fell into deep thought.

He was thinking, should he open it and take a look?

But his naturally cautious character hesitated.

This may be Pandora's box.

Once opened, maybe something bad will happen.

"There is no need to take such a risk, I'm just a white ape."

Ye Cheng finally held back.

So he turned away, as if nothing had happened, and continued to practice his sword and ape strikes.

More than ten days passed like this, and the two men would come every night and leave before dawn.

Ye Cheng will also go to see it once a day.

But he never went into the ground, let alone looked at the place where the hole was dug.

Although he was intensely curious about what the two men were digging for, he held on.

At the same time, he was looking forward to Yu Zhen Daogu and their early return.

On this day, until midnight, Ye Cheng, who was hiding in the trees, did not see those two black shadows coming.

"What's the situation?"

Ye Cheng was very curious.

Could it be that those two have already dug up the treasure?

Until dawn, I didn't see the two black shadows.

The next day, the two shadows still didn't come.

For the sake of safety, Ye Cheng did not go to that location for the past two days.

By the fifth day, the two shadows seemed to have completely disappeared, never to be seen again.

Ye Cheng understood that the two of them either dug something, or they didn't dig it, so they had to give up and leave....

So, he couldn't hold back anymore and came to the scene again.

He believed that after so many days, those two people would definitely not come again.

The site is well restored.

There are hardly many traces to be seen.

"Huh, is this a backfill?"

Before Ye Cheng came to the pothole, the piled up soil was gone.

A layer of withered yellow bamboo leaves was also laid on top to make a camouflage.

"Pretty cautious."

Ye Cheng was surprised.

Under normal circumstances, as long as the things are in hand, there is no need to handle the scene so carefully.

With so much soil backfilling, this is not a small amount of work.

Since the dug place has been backfilled, even if Ye Cheng wants to check it, he has no chance.

Unless he digs the filled hole again.

He's not so idle.

He knew he couldn't afford the risks.

In the next few days, Ye Cheng stayed in the bamboo hut during the day, practiced swords, or went to the bamboo forest to practice ape fighting, and left the bamboo forest at night and went to the tree to spend the night.

He still persistently paid attention to the situation outside the bamboo forest.

In order to prevent the two from going back and forth.

Before Yu Zhen Daogu didn't come back, he felt that it was not safe to sleep in the bamboo house at night.

In the yard.

After lunch, Ye Cheng picked his teeth with a bamboo stick.

This is a habit he developed in his previous life, and every time he doesn't clean his teeth after eating, he will feel uncomfortable.

"Hey, why hasn't Aunt Yu Zhen come back yet, it's been twenty-five days."

Ye Cheng stroked the Baoxiang mouse in his arms, and he was not in a good mood.

He hadn't taken a medicinal bath in a long time.

Although the experience was very poor when he took the medicinal liquid bath, it was a great help to his cultivation.

His current progress in ape striking is very, very slow.

If this continues, the triple qi realm will be far away.

What makes him most helpless is that the sign-in system checks in once a day, but it has been more than a year, but there is not even an additional reward.

So irregular.... Ye Cheng said it was very uncomfortable.

Just as his mind was letting go, there was a sound of footsteps coming from far and near.

As a white ape, Ye Cheng has extremely high hearing.

He was excited, suddenly turned over, and was about to run behind the bamboo house with the Baoxiang mouse in his arms.

"Xiaobai, what are you running?"

Suddenly, a clear and familiar voice sounded.

It was Yu Zhen Daogu's voice.

Ye Cheng stopped suddenly, and saw that Aunt Yu Zhen had already appeared outside the hospital.

Dressed in a pure cyan loose robe, black hair like a waterfall, with a faint smile on his delicate and gentle face.

Yu Zhen Daogu's skin looks darker than before, and at a glance, she knows that it is caused by frequent sun exposure during this time.

"Whew..."

Ye Cheng couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that it was Aunt Yu Zhendao.

He didn't even hear the footsteps of Aunt Yu Zhen just now.

Could it be that Aunt Yu Zhen has been away for too long?

No, the footsteps just now obviously don't look like Yu Zhen Daogu's.

It's a bit heavy...

It's not as brisk as it used to be.

Ye Cheng hurriedly ran over, and his eyes fell on Yu Zhen Daogu's feet.

"Don't look at it, it's just a little injured, and it will recover after a while."

Yu Zhen Daogu said with a chuckle.

She said it lightly, but Ye Cheng could imagine the danger contained in this mission.

With the senior sister leading the team, Yu Zhen Daogu was still injured?
