Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei looked up.

I saw a cave standing not far away under the cover of night and woods.

The sound came from inside, and it sounded dull and ferocious, indeed like the cry of a ferocious beast.

But Shen Ningning raised an entire animal population in Langshan, but she still didn't hear what the sound was.

Instead, it made her even more curious.

"Just go and take a look and you'll find out." As soon as the little girl took the first step, Mo Lingwei grabbed her hand.

The young man frowned and stared ahead with dark eyes.

"They said there is something here that could hurt someone, so be careful and let the guards clear the way first."

The guards were in front with swords, sweeping away the overgrown weeds.

The two villagers didn't dare to step forward, but seeing that the prince and princess both chose to move forward, they had no choice but to follow them.

After not taking two steps, suddenly, the guard at the front stiffened and fell down with a plop.

Two extremely frightened villagers stood behind and let out screams that reached the sky.

"We absolutely can't go any further!"

Mo Lingwei frowned and subconsciously protected Shen Ningning behind him.

The guards in front who had not fainted did not dare to leave anymore.

However, Shen Ningning sniffed her nose: "Did you smell it? It seems to have a floral scent."

Everyone sniffed carefully and found that it was indeed the case.

"In the deep mountains, any flower can bloom."

Shen Ningning shook his head: "Could it be a problem with the fragrance of flowers? I read a book before. The banyan fruits of the banyan tree will emit an indescribable smell. Combined with the special floral fragrance, it is like the smell of flowers in the Western Regions. The spice that stuns people.”

After Mo Lingwei heard this, he immediately gave the order and told the guards: "Cover your mouth and nose and try before moving forward."

He held Shen Ningning's hand and waited to see if the guards could walk over safely.

I saw the guards tearing off a piece of cloth from their clothes and wrapping it around their mouth and nose as a mask. They walked past the guard who had fainted just now. It seemed that nothing had happened to him.

Shen Ningning nodded seriously: "It's true. You thought something stung you before. In fact, you were sensitive to the smell and it has caused discomfort to you, but you didn't notice it."

The group of people quickly covered their mouths and noses and passed smoothly.

Mo Lingwei asked the guards to carry his unconscious colleague under the banyan tree, leaving three people to watch.

Shen Ningning and the others were getting closer and closer to the dark cave.

The cave is very large and is a favorite place for tigers to live.

Shen Ningning grabbed a little of the Black Wolf King's shed hair in advance.

When a beast encounters the scent of a beast, it will not attack immediately, but will approach it carefully.

The two villagers didn't dare to go up no matter what.

"Your Highness the Prince, Your Highness the Princess, you are nobles, and you will be blessed by God. The common people are waiting for you here. If anything happens, I can take care of you."

Shen Ningning was not prepared to embarrass them and decisively agreed.

She was also afraid that the guards would be injured, so she and Mo Lingwei took the initiative to go to the front.

After climbing up the rugged hillside with difficulty, I looked up and saw that the cave was actually very deep!

The light of the torch was swallowed up by the darkness, which showed that the cave was very deep.

Mo Lingwei was a little worried about Shen Ningning.

"Do you want to continue going forward? It seems that it should be the residence of some wild beast."

There are scattered dead bones at the entrance of the cave.

Shen Ningning's curiosity has reached its peak.

"It's here," she said.

There was no feeling of fear at all.

Mo Lingwei pulled her behind him and held his sword in front to protect her: "Then you can only follow me, don't run forward rashly."

Shen Ningning smiled sweetly: "Okay~"

In fact, if you really encounter a wild beast, it is not certain who will protect whom.

The further inside, the worse the damp smell becomes.

Wherever the torch could shine, there was nothing but dripping moss. However, Shen Ningning found that their voices became more and more shrinking and louder.

And, she discovered, they had been going downhill.

This proves that the cave is actually probably a cave!

It's definitely quite a big area.

There can't be several tigers living in such a big hole, right?
  suddenly.

A crashing black shadow flew over, and Mo Lingwei immediately held Shen Ningning in his arms and slashed with his sword.

The guards all took action together.

It wasn't until the black shadow flew out that Shen Ningning came out of Mo Lingwei's arms.

When I looked at the ground, I saw some bats.

Mo Lingwei pursed his lips: "No wonder the villagers are afraid. In the legend of Cangyun Kingdom, bats are the incarnation of the underworld with bull heads and horse faces, representing life and death."

Shen Ningning shook her little head and became calmer.

"No, bats gather here because it's humid here, and they like this environment."

Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows, feeling curious about this statement.

"Did your mother teach you this again?"

Shen Ningning raised her face proudly: "That's right, awesome, right? My mother really knows everything! I can't even imagine what a powerful person she would be if she were still here."

While they were talking, the guard hurriedly shouted: "Your Highness, there is light ahead!"

Shen Ningning looked up, and sure enough, a faint blue light flickered in the deepest part of the cave.

The little girl pulled Mo Lingwei and hurried over at a faster pace.

Passing through a narrow opening, one can only pass sideways.

As soon as Shen Ningning squeezed through, she was shocked by the scene in front of her!

Her watery eyes widened.

Under the cave, there is actually an extremely wide and empty underground cave, and the thing shining with blue light is actually a small cart that can only accommodate one person.

It's said to be a small cart, but it doesn't look like it because the material doesn't feel like wood.

But Shen Ningning hasn't seen it either.

Mo Lingwei followed her, looked around, and said in surprise: "I didn't expect there to be such a place deep in the mountains?"

At this moment, the guards who were searching around shouted: "Your Highness, there is a fainted person here!"

Shen Ningning hurried over.

Sure enough, a man fell near the cart.

After the guard turned him over and saw his face clearly, Mo Lingwei frowned.

Why does this person look familiar?

Wu Fang, who was following him, recognized him directly.

"It's that charlatan Master Gu! He's actually hiding here."

At the beginning, Wei Shangshu competed with Shen Ningning for the title of blessed girl for his daughter Wei Yufu, so he specially found a legendary magic stick from the world who could call the wind and rain.

This is Master Gu.

However, not only did he not attract rain, he also tricked the Wei family into having fun overnight.

Later, the imperial court ordered the arrest of this charlatan, but he escaped without a trace. After all these years, we unexpectedly met him here.

Mo Lingwei frowned: "He's just a liar. Take him back to Beijing and try him for his past crimes."

The guards immediately lifted Master Gu, who was over fifty years old.

At this moment, a disc fell from Master Gu, streaking with silver light in the air and landing at Shen Ningning's feet.

The little girl looked down and was suddenly surprised.

"and many more!"

She picked up the disc and looked carefully at the two words engraved on it:
  to the moon.

It's exactly the same as the engraving left by her mother!
  How could this charlatan have this thing? ! Could it be that he stole it?
