Just when they could feel each other's breathing, Ye Qingran pushed him away.

"Sorry... I'm feeling a little unwell, so I'm going back first."

She ran away in a panic, leaving Chu Qingyun alone at a loss.

He scratched his head in embarrassment and murmured in a low voice: "Am I too impatient... I'd better find a chance to apologize to her."

After returning to the room, Ye Qingran's heart still couldn't calm down for a long time, as if the scene just now was still in front of him.

It is difficult to find someone who can connect with someone, let alone someone with her status. If it were normal, she would never have imagined that she would be related to King Xiaoyao, let alone be so close to him.

In fact, she herself didn't know why she left suddenly, but there was some resistance in her heart, or maybe it was fear.

There are always some doubts.

With this thought in mind, she sat there until dark.

There was a flash of lightning outside, illuminating her unlit room.

Amidst the rumbling thunder, heavy rain poured down. The rain blew into the windows with the wind and wet the window sill and the ground.

Ye Qingran stood up and closed the window, frowning slightly.

"With such heavy rain, it might be difficult for them to leave in the mountains."

It is difficult to find a suitable place in the forest for so many people to rest, let alone a shelter that can shelter from the rain.

I have been so busy these days that I forgot to pay attention to the weather. There is no point in trying to see it at this time.

It happened that Chu Qingyun came to knock on the door at this time. She opened the door and asked, "What's wrong?"

After relaxing for more than an hour, I had forgotten the cramped feeling during the day. Now when I saw him, I suddenly remembered the accelerated heartbeat and the unavoidable warm breath.

Chu Qingyun held an umbrella, and the night blurred his features, making it difficult for people to see his emotions clearly. He coughed lightly: "Ahem, I saw it was raining heavily, and I was worried that they were not safe in the forest, so I came to tell you. , I’m going to the forest to confirm their safety.”

"I'll go, you should still take care of my parents for me."

Before he came, she had already decided to go to the forest to find Ye Zhuoyu and the others. After all, it was her arrangement and she had to be responsible.

Chu Qingyun looked back at the heavy rain behind him and sighed: "It's so late and the rain is so heavy. I'm worried that you won't be safe if you are alone. I can just go. I have Shadow by my side, so you are safe."

"Forget it, let's go together."

Ye Qingran sighed, "Leave the village to Ying Yi. According to the current situation, there shouldn't be any surprises."

"it is good."

They put on raincoats and hurried into the forest as fast as possible.

Because of the heavy rain, they could not use torches for lighting. Without the help of moonlight, they had a difficult time moving forward.

They originally thought it would take them a long time to find Ye Zhuoyu and the others, but they didn't expect that in less than an hour, they met several people head-on.

Apart from the two of them, the only people who would be active in the forest at this time were the brothers who came to practice.

"Who is it?" Ye Qingran asked.

After hearing her voice, the figure came over faster, and he responded: "Master of the village, I am Changsheng!"

"Changsheng? How come there are only a few of you and there are others?"

After they cooked the noodles, they saw Chang Sheng, who was all wet, with several team members behind him. They gasped and replied: "Brother Ye took the others to the mountains to find a cave to hide from the rain, but it was too dark. I was worried that the mountain road was not easy to walk and could be dangerous, so I suggested bringing a few people back to let you know. I don’t know where they have gone now.”

He said, pointing in the direction where Ye Zhuoyu led the people away.

Hearing this, Ye Qingran frowned: "You are right. You may not encounter any ferocious beasts when you go up the mountain at this time, but the mountain is rugged and the light is poor. If you fall from the mountain, it will be fatal."

She sighed and looked at Changsheng, "Since you are already here, hurry back to the village and remember to drink some ginger soup. The weather is cold now and you will get cold easily if you get caught in the rain. Go ahead."

"Yes, Village Master."

After Changsheng left with a few people, Ye Qingran and Chu Qingyun looked at each other and seemed to have reached a tacit agreement.

The mountain road was rugged, but there were many trees. Chu Qingyun picked her up horizontally and jumped among the trees. This way he could avoid the trouble of detours and observe whether there were any firelights among the rocks in the distance.

Fortunately, they were fast enough and found Ye Zhuoyu's location not long after.

Ye Qingran breathed a sigh of relief. At least he was able to confirm that they had found a shelter from the rain and would not wander around in the forest.

But when she arrived in the cave, she saw a very uneasy Ye Zhuoyu.

"Brother, we are here, what's wrong with you? Are you injured?"

Ye Zhuoyu was sitting by the fire and curled up, frowning and thinking about something. He turned around after hearing her voice, stood up immediately and said, "Ran'er, the mountain road is not easy to walk. When I was exploring the way for them, I almost fell down the mountain. , Sanhu...he fell down the mountain himself in order to protect me..."

"what?"

Ye Qingran was shocked, but still managed to stay calm, "Are the rest of you injured? Where did Sanhu fall from?"

Ye Zhuoyu shook his head: "We are all fine. The rain was too heavy and we couldn't see the road clearly. I didn't dare to take the risk with others. The place where Sanhu fell is not far from here, I will take you there."

They asked the other team members to stay where they were, and the three of them left the cave in the heavy rain.

There were a lot of rocks in the place where Sanhu fell. They had to be careful when walking, otherwise they would slip if they were not careful. If they didn't have time to maintain their balance, they would fall down the steep slope on one side.

Ye Qingran looked at the slope, recalling how he was pushed down the hillside by Ye Yunlian, and said firmly: "We have to find a way to get down from here. Sanhu must still be alive. We have to find him as soon as possible. It may be too late." No chance."

"Okay! But this hillside is steep and there are a lot of gravels. How are we going to get down?"

Sanhu fell down because of Ye Zhuoyu, and he was more anxious than anyone else at this time.

Chu Qingyun thought for a while: "I'm good at Qinggong. Why don't I find a way to use the trees on the side to get to the bottom? This is the fastest way I can think of."

"Okay, I'll go with you. Brother, you go back to the cave and take the others with you until dawn before going back. Chu Qingyun and I will go down to find Sanhu. When we find him, we will find a way to bring him back, even if he is We will definitely take his body back."

Although Ye Zhuoyu felt guilty and wanted to find Sanhu by himself, he also understood that at this time it was better to follow the arrangements and not cause trouble. He didn't want anyone to pay the price for his mistake again.

Chu Qingyun picked her up again and drove her down the hillside with the help of messy branches.
