After entering the cave, the light gradually dimmed.

At this moment, Luo Cheng took out a night pearl.

“I have good stuff too!” Seeing this, Wu Qinghe also took out the Night Pearl he carried with him.

With these two Night Pearls, it was much more convenient for everyone to travel through the cave.

Sure enough, not long after, several forks appeared in the cave.

This time, everyone could only look at Wu Qinghe and wait for him to guide them.

This time, Wu Qinghe took out his copper coin for divination. After tossing it in his hand a few times, he finally pointed out a path.

“This way!”

With that, Wu Qinghe walked over first.

Shu Ruyue didn’t suspect anything and followed him.

Luo Cheng also held Li Xiaoran’s hand and said, “Let’s go!”

Li Xiaoran nodded and walked behind Shu Ruyue with Luo Cheng.

Just like that, the four of them walked and stopped from time to time. After an unknown period of time, they really walked out of the cave. At this moment, there was a huge mountain outside the cave.

From afar, they could vaguely see some houses.

When Wu Qinghe saw this, he said with a smile, “See, I told you guys long ago! You guys didn’t believe me when I said that I could help you guys find the right way out! To be honest, I’ve been led by my mentor through various secret tunnels or caves since I was young. Every time, I relied on my ability to return safely!”

After Luo Cheng glanced at Wu Qinghe, he actually praised him.

“It’s all thanks to you this time! Let’s go down the mountain and ask where this place is. Then, we’ll buy some food from the villagers to fill our stomachs!”

The others nodded, then they all headed down the mountain.

The four of them were auite luckv.

On the way down the mountain, they encountered a child who had been injured and fallen into a pit.

Luo Cheng weaved a rope with vines and tied it to the trunk of the big tree outside. Then, he went down into the pit to save the child.

At this moment, the child’s parents also came looking for him. When they learned that Luo Cheng and the others had saved their son, they insisted on bringing them to their house for a meal to express their grat.i.tude.

The four of them were hungry, so they didn’t refuse.

There were not many people in the mountains, but there were sweet potatoes, taros, and wild animals.

This family hunted for a living, so they made pheasant stewed taros to thank them for saving the child’s life.

They used raw ingredients and only added some salt, but the taste was still very good.

The four of them, who had been hungry for a long time, thought that it tasted delicious, so they ate in big mouthfuls.

“Where is this place? A group of us came out of White Foothill City to hunt in the mountains, but we got lost. It took us a long time to find the way out and met you guys!” Li Xiaoran looked at the woman who was feeding the child and asked.

“This is Water Rites Village, which is under the jurisdiction of White Foothill City. It’s just that we’re still a little far from White Foothill City. People like you who came out of White Foothill City and entered the mountains, then got lost and came to us, will appear from time to time. Therefore, we’re already used to it! Speaking of which, the back mountain of our village is indeed a little strange. Even us locals will get lost if we’re not careful!” Mrs. Guan replied with a smile.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she realized what was going on.

“Is there an ox cart to White Foothill City in the village?” Luo Cheng thought of something and turned to look at the male head of the family.

“The ox cart only goes to town, so you guys can take the ox cart to town first. Then, when you reach town, ask the people from the escort agency and you guys can follow them to White Foothill City!” Guan Tieniu replied.

“Why follow people from the escort agency?” Shu Ruyue asked curiously as she ate her chicken.

“There are mountain roads all the way from town to White Foothill City. Not long ago, a group of people appeared out of nowhere. When they saw people pa.s.sing by, they would rob them, especially those merchants. If no merchants pa.s.sed by, the people pa.s.sing by would also be robbed. Therefore, for safety reasons, everyone is willing to give the escort agency some money and follow them to White Foothill City, since it will be much safer!” Guan Tieniu explained.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she remembered this.

After eating and drinking her fill, Li Xiaoran placed ten taels of silver on the table and covered it with a bowl when the Guan family wasn’t paying attention.

After Guan Tieniu sent Li Xiaoran and the others away and returned to tidy up the dining table, Mrs. Guan discovered the silver in the bowl.

“Husband, look!” When Mrs. Guan saw the silver, she quickly called her husband over.

Guan Tieniu thought about it.

“Take it! Teach Taro to do more good deeds when he grows up in the future. It can be considered repaying this kindness!”

Mrs. Guan nodded and carefully put away the silver.

With this money, their family’s life would be much easier.

It was almost Taro’s birthday. She could finally afford to buy textiles to make new clothes for the child.

The couple had really met a benefactor. No wonder magpies were chirping on branches early this morning.

On the other side, after Li Xiaoran, Luo Cheng, and the others got on the ox cart, they telt a little sleepy.

Seeing that Li Xiaoran was sleepy, Luo Cheng let her lean against him and sleep for a while.

When they arrived in town, Li Xiaoran still didn’t wake up.

Seeing this, Luo Cheng called out to her.

However, Li Xiaoran was still groggy. She snorted and tried to open her eyes, but she felt as if her eyelids weighed a thousand pounds.

“Brother Luo Cheng, your face is very red. Do you have a fever?!” Shu Ruyue glanced at Li Xiaoran and asked.

When Luo Cheng heard this, he quickly touched Li Xiaoran’s forehead.

As expected, Li Xiaoran’s forehead was hot. It was obvious that she had a fever.

“We’ve experienced so much these past few days. Xiaoran, who doesn’t know martial arts, has been following us everywhere. No wonder she fell sick!” Shu Ruyue said calmly, “Let’s find an inn in town to stay in later and find a doctor for Xiaoran!”

“There’s no need to look for a doctor. I’m a doctor! Let’s go. There’s an inn ahead, so let’s stay there first!” Luo Cheng said as he carried Li Xiaoran and walked towards the inn in front.

The ride on the ox cart had been paid for previously, so after Wu Qinghe picked up Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran’s luggage, he followed Shu Ruyue.

Li Xiaoran felt very uncomfortable. Her entire body was hot and she felt dizzy.

Seeing how uncomfortable she was, Luo Cheng quickly took her pulse, wrote a prescription, and handed it to Wu Qinghe to get the medicine.

“Wife, endure it for a while. After the medicine is brewed, you’ll feel better after taking it!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s voice, she immediately thought of something.

“Bring some strong alcohol and wipe my body.. You’ll feel much better!”
