Chapter 45 Underground Stronghold

Yu Wan fed the living horses some fruit, but there was no other way. The horses were useful to raise. There was no grass in the space, so the only thing that could be fed to them was the fruit.

Fortunately, the five horses smelled the fragrance of the fruit and ate it one by one. Then they wandered around leisurely in the space. They really wanted to eat those elixirs, which looked delicious, but no matter what, they couldn't touch them.

When the little snake saw it, he cursed an idiot and lay down in the elixir to sleep.

Yu Wan came out of the room and saw that food had just been placed on the table in the living room.

 She also felt a little hungry, so after eating some, she went out.

Yu Wan looked at the sky and went to the county government office to apply for household registration. She was afraid that the government office would no longer be doing official business.

She simply went out to the south of the city and disposed of the corpses in the space. She remembered that there was a mountain forest behind Zhuangzi in the south of the city, so it was best to go there to deal with it.

Out of the city gate, Yu Wan found a deserted place, released a horse, and then rode straight to Zhuangzi.

Outside Zhuangzi, Yu Wan dismounted and knocked on the door. The person who opened the door was a young man named Mao Dan who was sent to work on Zhuangzi. When he saw the master, he immediately said: "Miss, you are here."

Yu Wan nodded and threw the horse rope to Mao Dan: "Tie the horse up and cut some grass for me. I will take it away when I come back later."

 “Yes, miss, I’ll go right away.” Mao Dan took the horse away.

Yu Wan saw that this horse had been in space and was extremely docile.

She looked towards the village. At this time, people in the village were working in the fields. They were about to plant the seeds, and the land would definitely have to be plowed.

Yu Wan did not step forward to look, she walked directly to the back mountain. She walked to the foot of the mountain, lifted her legs and walked up the mountain. The mountain was not high, so she could reach the top in a short while.

Yu Wan saw that the trees on the mountain were not very dense and overgrown with weeds. Occasionally, she could see a few wild fruit trees with a few rotten fruits hanging on the treetops.

She looked forward and saw that the mountains were getting higher and higher, and sure enough they were connected to Daqing Mountain. She felt happy, it would be much easier to take Yu Haoran and the others into the mountains in the future.

Yu Wan walked deeper. There were no wild animals outside. If the body was left here, there was a high chance of being discovered. In the deep mountains, large beasts often appear, and these corpses can be eaten up in one night.

“Plop, Leng Leng,” the sound of a pheasant flying was heard. Yu Wan looked up and saw a pheasant flying out from under a tree.

 “Is there a chicken coop?”

Yu Wan hurriedly took a few steps and walked to the bottom of the tree to take a look. Sure enough, there was a thick chicken nest with about thirty wild eggs in it.

"It would be great if I could catch that hen." Yu Wan looked in the direction of the pheasants that flew away. She planned to raise some pheasants and rabbits in the space and supply them to restaurants in the future. Moreover, the pheasants raised in the space did not have the smell of firewood, but were actually delicious. no.

Yu Wan released the little snake and left it to it to catch chickens and rabbits.

"What? Master, you want my majestic beast to catch chickens?" the little snake exclaimed.

Yu Wan slapped it in the face: "Why are you making such a fuss? You can't do such a small thing well. It's a mythical beast, but it's not much of a beast. It's just eating chicken without catching it. I'd better not eat it in the future."

"No, master, why don't you go catch the little snake? You will definitely catch a lot of them." The little snake was anxious. The master seemed to despise it for not eating anything, so it must catch more chickens today.

 The little snake disappeared in a flash.

Yu Wan looked for eggs nearby. If they couldn’t hatch, they could still be eaten.

So she walked up to Daqing Mountain while searching. Suddenly, Yu Wan heard the sound of "rustling" coming down the mountain. When she listened carefully, it seemed that someone was coming down from the mountain. She just thought it was a hunter coming down from the mountain to hunt, but she didn't take it seriously.

It’s just that the sound disappeared as I walked.

Yu Wan listened carefully and found that he had indeed disappeared. She immediately became vigilant.

She quietly walked up the mountain, and when she reached the area where the sound disappeared, she saw no one anywhere.

Yu Wan wondered who could run so fast. Suddenly, there was a sound of opening the lid. Although it was quiet, she still heard it.

Just as she was about to move, she suddenly saw an ordinary-looking man in green clothes climbing up from a big tree.

"basement?"

Yu Wan held her breath and quietly languished in the weeds. Fortunately, the weeds here were thick and numerous, completely hiding her small body.

The man looked around and saw that there was no sound, so he quietly stayed on the mountain again.

Yu Wan frowned. She remembered the woman who was posing with a man and a woman and said that the place where they met was on the mountain outside the city. Could it be here? What a coincidence, right?

Yu Wan returned quietly and let the little snake go in for a look later.

　　When she returned, she was so surprised that she was speechless. This little snake really took away the chicken coop. There are chickens, chicken coops, rabbits, and rabbit nests everywhere.

"Master, hurry up, the little snake's mana is almost gone." The little snake urged Yu Wan anxiously.

Yu Wan's head was covered with black lines. It turned out to be the magic power she used, but she thought it was the charm of a mythical beast. With a few waves of her hand, all the pheasants and hares on the ground entered the space.

 “Ah, master, I am so tired, and the little snake is so thirsty.”

Yu Wan looked at the little snake: "You didn't do this because you wanted to drink the spiritual spring water, did you?"

"Master, how is it possible? The little snake is really thirsty," the little snake said obviously without confidence.

"You can drink if you want. Go and help the master look at a basement."

The little snake raised its head and said, "Where is it, Master? Let's go quickly."

Yu Wan held her forehead, the little snake was quite willing to fight for the water from the spring, without even asking if there was any danger.

Yu Wan made a gesture, and the little snake followed her to where the man in black got up.

As expected, there is a stone slab covered with thick weeds. Without looking carefully, this disguise is really difficult to spot. It seems that the person who arranged this disguise is obviously a master.

Yu Wan gently opened a gap and said, "Little snake, go in and see what's inside. Come out and tell me."

 The little snake nodded and got in with a "whoosh" sound.

Yu Wan retreated a dozen steps and hid.

 After a stick of incense, the little snake flew out and flew in front of Yu Wan. Yu Wan grabbed it and rolled it around her wrist.

 “What’s going on inside?”

"Master, it's very deep inside, and there are several rooms, but there's no one in there. There's a letter in one of the rooms."

"Letter? Why don't you take it?" Yu Wan guessed that the man in Tsing Yi went in to release the letter.

“Master, you didn’t say that.” The little snake looked at Yu Wan. Didn’t it do the right thing?

Yu Wan sighed. Since there was no one inside, she might as well go by herself.

 She came to the entrance of the cave, threw away the cover, and jumped down.

After jumping down, she wanted to move the upper cover back, but the ground in the cave was seven or eight feet high from the entrance, and her small body could not reach it.

Yu Wan walked down the stairs. Fortunately, her eyes could see at night.

About ten feet down, there is a flat passage. There are still torches on the stone walls on both sides of the passage, but they are not lit now.
