After her rebirth, she became the sweetheart of the sickly uncle.

After arriving at the inn, several people sat around the table, on which was placed the Qingshan defense map that Su Qingcheng had given Ye Tantai.

On the other side are the changes in Qingshan's defense that Ye Tantai's people have continued to explore during this period.

"Judging from the pattern of changes in the defense map, this person is quite good at the art of Qimen Dunjia." Su Qingcheng analyzed calmly.

In her previous life, she only knew that Fu Xingzhou was strictly guarding Qingshan. Before she learned these tricks, she couldn't even find Qingshan's location.

Gu Huoyan said nothing and frowned. He did not understand the art of these mechanisms, but it was easy to see from the modifications on the defense map that it was not easy to enter Qingshan smoothly.

"Fu Yi, how sure are you that you can go in now?"

Fu Yi quickly glanced at Ye Tantai, then looked at Gu Huoyan and replied: "Sixty percent."

At this time, Ye Tantai, who had been silent all this time, pointed to an inconspicuous corner of the defense map and said, "Is this place a village?"

Several people followed his movements and moved their gazes over. Su Qingcheng felt happy in her heart. She almost forgot that there was another way to enter Qingshan.

"Yes, due to the sparse population and complex terrain, this village is little known." She dipped her brush in ink and circled the location of the village. "You see, the location of the village seems to be the most inconspicuous part of Qingshan. In the south, Fu Xingzhou’s gold mine is in the far north, but behind here is directly connected to the important Qingshan area."

This village is very magical. It will look different from different angles. There will be some changes in the defense map every time.

"Okay, let's go here tomorrow." Ye Tantai nodded slightly.

Fu Yi put away the defense map on the table, but Gu Huoyan was still sitting on the chair, looking at the bed with a resentful look on his face, and the dark blue under his eyes became more and more intense.

Su Qingcheng sighed inwardly, the relationship between the Gu family brothers and sisters was so good.

"Why aren't you leaving yet?" Ye Tantai said coldly, his tone not very kind.

Gu Huoyan rolled his eyes at him: "Can you two not go to the rooftop to flirt at night? My room is downstairs, and there was a constant sound of tiles colliding last night."

Su Qingcheng's cheeks were slightly hot, but her face was still serious: "What kind of flirting? The prince and I are up there... observing the situation in Qingshui City."

Gu Huoyan had an expression on his face that said, "Do you think I believe it?" He curled his lips helplessly, stood up and walked out the door. He turned around every step of the way and said, "Don't observe me today, it's very noisy."

"I know, I know." Su Qingcheng pushed him out and immediately closed the door.

She turned around and breathed a small sigh of relief.

"Were we discussing Qingshui City yesterday? Why don't I remember it?" Ye Tantai joked innocently.

Su Qingcheng was too lazy to pay attention to him and said perfunctorily: "Then what does the prince remember?"

"I remember someone resting his head on my shoulder. I still feel a little sore in my back."

"How about I give the prince two injections?" Su Qingcheng put her hands on her hips and saw through Ye Tantai's little thoughts.

He had just been out for a long time, but he didn't feel any discomfort in his shoulders. He didn't look like he had back pain in his movements.

"That's too much trouble for the princess. I suddenly feel that it doesn't hurt so much anymore."

"Your Majesty's body is really amazing. It hurts sometimes and doesn't hurt at other times." Su Qingcheng said as she walked towards the bed.

Before she went out today, she specifically asked the shopkeeper to bring another quilt.

On the bed at this time, there were two pillows and two quilts, with the distance between them enough for one person to lie down.

Su Qingcheng was very satisfied.

She took off her coat and went to sleep inside, quickly covering herself with the quilt, leaving only her head exposed.

Ye Tantai was a little puzzled. She was fine in the morning, but now she was talking like a hedgehog covered with thorns.

The next day.

Several people set out early in the morning to go to the village under the green mountains.

When they reached the intersection of the village, several people looked at each other.

The dilapidated village entrance, desolate streets, and old houses on both sides were covered with spider webs. It looked like no one had lived in it for a long time.

"What's going on?" Fu Yi walked at the front. He took out the news that Huo Mei had sent back in the past few days, which mentioned this village. "She mentioned this place seven days ago. It's not like this at all. of."

Su Qingcheng stepped forward and opened the secret letter and read it. Although the village written in it was not big and the people living in the village were lonely old people, it was very lively and the old people looked healthy.

She came to the mountain spring flowing from the green mountains mentioned in the letter, but it had dried up in just seven days.

"There is something wrong with this village." Su Qingcheng frowned slightly.

As soon as she finished speaking, a strong wind suddenly blew around her. Ye Tantai quickly stepped forward and took her hand to protect her behind him.

"This is at the south foot of Qingshan Mountain. How come there is such a strong wind?" Gu Huoyan narrowed his eyes due to the wind and asked while coughing.

Su Qingcheng couldn't explain, what she saw in front of her made her feel uneasy.

At this time, an old man with gray hair, short stature, and wearing ragged clothes came out of the strong wind.

He was surrounded by pebbles and gravel blown by the wind, but he still looked calm and his eyes were firm.

"Who is here, trespassing on the sacred mountain?"

Everyone was slightly surprised. They were only a few steps away from the old man. His mouth had never opened, but his voice did reach their ears.

Su Qingcheng composed herself, stepped forward and bowed to the old man: "Grandpa, we went up the mountain from the north to escape the summer heat, but the trees on the mountain were tall and dense, so we got lost and went down the mountain."

She didn't feel any malice from the old man, so she continued, "Can you show us a way up the mountain?"

The old man didn't react at first, but when he heard her saying that he wanted to go up the mountain, his face suddenly changed, and he turned red and glared at them.

"Because you guys trespassed on the sacred mountain, the mountain god became angry and let the rocks roll down! My three-year-old grandson was crushed to death like this!"

The old man suddenly became emotional. He took a few steps back and drew something on the ground with his crutch. Then he whispered to the empty village: "Come out."

Suddenly, a group of villagers with hoes poured out from all directions.

One of the young men's eyes was full of curiosity, looking around at this group of "outsiders" in their eyes.

"Grandpa, I think there is some misunderstanding. We are really not bad people," Gu Huoyan hurriedly waved his hands and stepped forward to explain, "If you don't go up the mountain, don't go up the mountain. We have something to talk about."

Ye Tantai silently observed the surrounding environment and carefully compared it with what was said in the letter.

If he guessed correctly, someone must have gone up the mountain from this village, and then for some reason a rolling stone fell from the mountain, turning the originally beautiful village into its current miserable state.
