But it doesn't matter, your reliable good brother is here, and he will definitely not let Huang Aotian or the female lead shed a single tear!
Either side is someone he protects!
The simple and unadorned words 'reliable' were practically branded on Huang Mao's face.
Mu Jixue's nervous emotions were slightly relieved.
But she was still flustered, because they didn't know how Lin Zhongyu was captured or where she had been taken.
"The teleportation talisman you just gave me, you must have given one to Lin before as well."
Yun Zhonghe's reminder made Mu Jixue suddenly freeze.
She immediately found the teleportation talisman that had been bound to Lin Zhongyu.
Why would Yun Zhonghe know that they had talismans for mutual teleportation?
Because Yun Zhonghe understood Huang Aotian too well.
Anything that could be given to him would definitely include the female lead, not to mention that this was a life-saving item.
But when Mu Jixue tried to activate the talisman, the teleportation talisman did not take effect.
"What's going on? Why isn't the teleportation talisman working?!"
Mu Jixue's expression turned to despair again.
"It's probably because there's a barrier in the place she was taken to, disrupting space, which is why the teleportation talisman can't take effect."
Yun Zhonghe said calmly, while simultaneously searching the room for clues.
There were no signs of the tea or other drinks being consumed, indicating that Lin Zhongyu had listened carefully to Yun Zhonghe.
This meant she wasn't drugged before being taken away.
Furthermore, there were no signs of a struggle at the scene.
This indicated how troublesome the enemy was.
Everyone sat in Lin Zhongyu's guest room, feeling somewhat disheartened.
They had just said they needed to be careful, and look how quickly they had lost a companion.
Yun Zhonghe was also quite depressed, as the original plot didn't mention the details of this part of the story, so he didn't know how Lin Zhongyu was taken or where she was taken.
However, there was one thing Yun Zhonghe could be sure of: Lin Zhongyu was temporarily safe and wouldn't be harmed yet.
Chapter 69: Secret Passage.avi
Why could Yun Zhonghe be so certain that Lin Zhongyu was temporarily fine? Because he had just observed the outside through the window and confirmed that tonight would be the night of the full moon.
The mission BOSS was a Spider Demon, which would fall into a state of weakness on the night of the full moon. After waking up, it would need blood food to replenish its losses, and the captured Cultivators were the best supplements.
Therefore, whenever it was close to the night of the full moon, the Spider Demon would hoard blood food in advance like preparing for winter, making it convenient to replenish itself at any time after waking up.
So, tonight was the best opportunity.
If Lin Zhongyu wasn't rescued tonight, there was a high probability that she would be eaten by the Spider Demon.
But the question was, where was Lin Zhongyu now?
Yun Zhonghe was deep in thought, while Song Ziwei and the others were also nervously discussing how Lin Zhongyu had been captured.
Yun Zhonghe walked to the side of the guest room bed. After touching the bed and pressing it lightly, he immediately felt that the texture was wrong.
Although it was very subtle, a Sword Cultivator was inherently very sensitive to touch, and could immediately perceive even the slightest anomaly.
There was a difference between the bed in Lin Zhongyu's guest room and the bed in his guest room.
To verify his guess, Yun Zhonghe lifted the bedding and knocked on the bottommost wooden board.
Knock, knock, knock.
It was hollow.
Yun Zhonghe fumbled around the side of the bed, found a mechanism, and pressed it down forcefully.
Suddenly, he, along with the bed board, flipped 180 degrees.
Yun Zhonghe only heard a startled cry, and with a 'bang', he fell from the guest room into a secret passage.
"So there was a mechanism under the bed!"
Yun Zhonghe tried jumping back up and then jumped out of the mechanism again.
The others immediately gathered around.
"Yun, is there a secret passage down here? Did the bad guys capture Xiao Yu from here?!"
Mu Jixue was burning with anxiety, no longer caring about the previous conflict with Yun Zhonghe, and asked urgently.
"Eight out of ten, yes, but I can't be completely sure. What if this is just a diversion?"
Yun Zhonghe's concerns were not unreasonable. Time was relatively precious now, and they had to rescue Lin Zhongyu tonight. But if they went into this secret passage and didn't find Lin Zhongyu, they would be wasting time.
Not having a clear destination was truly a headache.
However, at this moment, Yun Zhonghe suddenly thought of something. He raised his head and looked at Mu Jixue, staring straight into her eyes.
Being stared at with such a serious gaze by Yun Zhonghe, Mu Jixue felt a little flustered: "Why are you staring at me like that?"
"Go down and feel it. You and Lin are childhood sweethearts, you must be able to sense her aura. Trust the connection between your hearts, trust your intuition and give it a try."
Huang Aotian and the female lead were connected by the red thread of fate and could clearly sense each other's presence in times of crisis.
This kind of effect had already risen to the level of a Law, and it couldn't be blocked by a mere barrier.
Just now, Mu Jixue was simply too flustered, so she didn't notice this telepathy.
As Yun Zhonghe's reminder fell, Mu Jixue was stunned.
Including the companions beside them, they couldn't help but look sideways.
They all felt Yun Zhonghe's confidence.
Precisely because of this, it was hard for people to accept.
Even Mu Jixue herself didn't understand why Yun Zhonghe believed her.
However... she believed Yun Zhonghe was right.
So Mu Jixue went down into the secret passage. She closed her eyes, cast aside all distracting thoughts in her heart, followed Yun Zhonghe's idea, and began to search for that sense of connection.
The air in the secret passage was extremely quiet at this moment.
In just a moment, Mu Jixue opened her eyes again and poked her head out of the secret passage: "It seems to be here... I'm not entirely sure... but I vaguely feel that Xiao Yu was taken away by the bad guys from here..."
Before she finished speaking, Yun Zhonghe nodded decisively: "Okay, then you lead the way, I'll follow you, and the others will stay here for now and follow Fellow Daoist Song's command."
In times of crisis, it was still Yun Zhonghe who could remain calm and always immediately issue the most accurate orders.
Song Ziwei worried: "Yun, it's too dangerous for just the two of you to go deep into the enemy's territory. Let's go together..."
"No, this secret passage is narrow and it's not convenient for too many people to move together. Besides, if all of us suddenly disappear from the inn, it will definitely arouse suspicion. There are enemy spies everywhere nearby."
Yun Zhonghe refused decisively. After all, he also wasn't at ease letting this group of friends follow along. If they entered the mission BOSS's territory, they might all die according to their predetermined fate.
"Besides, Mu Guniang's strength is very high, and with my assistance, everyone doesn't need to worry."
Huang Aotian and Huang Mao paired up, it was simply invincible.
Meeting Yun Zhonghe's gaze, Mu Jixue suddenly felt as if something had been injected into her, and the hesitation in her heart became firm at this moment.
"Just the two of us, Yun and I, are enough. Everyone just needs to help us provide cover."
When the female lead was in deep peril, Huang Aotian and Huang Mao inexplicably acted in unison.
Before setting off, Yun Zhonghe didn't forget to instruct: "If we don't return tonight, you should quickly hide and then find a way to escape."
Everyone nodded, they knew their limits.
To be cautious, Yun Zhonghe took out the Aura Concealing Talismans he had bought earlier in the Cangzhou City market and put one on himself and one on Mu Jixue.
After getting ready, Yun Zhonghe also crawled into the secret passage with Mu Jixue, moving forward on their bellies.
The secret passage was very narrow, like a ventilation duct, only allowing them to crawl on their bellies.
Moreover, the secret passage was a one-way path, so the two of them had to go one after the other.
Fortunately, there were no forks in the path, and they weren't discovered by anyone else.
In the pitch-black secret passage, they couldn't see their hands in front of them.
Only vaguely, Yun Zhonghe felt something white constantly swaying in front.
Perhaps because his cultivation had reached the fifth level of Foundation Establishment, all aspects of his physical senses had been enhanced, so he could see some things even without light.
As for Mu Jixue, after gradually calming down, a strange shyness also slowly crept into her heart.
Careless! Because she was anxious to save Xiao Yu, she rushed to the front, completely forgetting that she was still wearing a skirt. Crawling like this in front, Yun Zhonghe could see clearly up her skirt just by looking up.
The worry for Xiao Yu and the concern for Yun Zhonghe created a strange chemical reaction at this moment, making her feel instantly uncomfortable, but she had no time to deal with it.
Besides, it was so dark here, Yun Zhonghe shouldn't be able to see, right...
Suddenly, Mu Jixue seemed to feel the top.
Oh, she had crawled to the top of the secret passage, nothing else.
However, Yun Zhonghe didn't know that Mu Jixue had suddenly stopped. He bumped straight into her butt, hitting it quite hard, and his nose seemed to get stuck in some seam.
Mm~ such a sweet fragrance!
The soft and springy butt cheeks clamped onto Yun Zhonghe, startling him, while Mu Jixue's delicate body trembled even more, as if she had been electrocuted.
Just now, Yun Zhonghe's breath blowing up had almost made her already strange feeling leak out.
Chapter 70: Guan Bao's Friendship
Honestly, Yun Zhonghe wasn't particularly aroused by White-haired Loli. After all, they were good brothers, and who would really have special thoughts about their good brother?
But even though he thought that way in his heart, he really couldn't resist how fragrant his brother was. The sweet fragrance filling his nasal cavity seemed to be fruit-flavored, making him unable to help but imagine the front as a large and plump peach.
Was Yun Zhonghe thinking of eating farts?
"What exactly is this smell? How can it be so sweet?"
Curiosity arose in Yun Zhonghe's heart. Although he also understood how many people would imagine girls to be beautiful, in reality, girls were also people, they would poop and fart, and the places that should smell would still smell. Even girls with slightly more vigorous hormones would have stronger smells than boys.
It wasn't that Yun Zhonghe was intentionally boasting, but White-haired Loli's scent was truly pleasant. It wasn't smelly at all. The rich fruity sweet fragrance combined with her unique milky body scent was like holding two flavors of candy in your mouth at the same time, yet they cleverly blended together, stimulating the taste buds.
This child, could she be made of candy?!
Thoughts were thoughts, but Yun Zhonghe was still a relatively serious person. He wouldn't actually express his feelings, but instead asked calmly from the front: "Why did you stop?"
"We've reached the top, no! Move back a little, don't keep pushing in."
Mu Jixue was shy. She could feel Yun Zhonghe's breath blowing onto her panties when he spoke, and waves of subtle sensations swept over her as if insects were crawling.
Yun Zhonghe wisely retreated a little. After White-haired Loli calmed down slightly, she began to grope around, looking for the mechanism.
"Found it!"
Mu Jixue carefully pushed open the wooden board above her head. After poking her head out, she found it was another bed board.
They seemed to have run into another room.
Mu Jixue checked that there was no one in the room, then flipped out from under the bed board. Yun Zhonghe followed suit.
This was a very ordinary room. Looking at the layout, it didn't seem like an inn guest room, but rather like a servant's room in that household.
The entire room was dim.
Yun Zhonghe held his breath and focused. He raised his hand to signal Mu Jixue not to move randomly, and that he would investigate the vicinity for danger.
Huang Mao protected Huang Aotian behind him at all times; this was the essence of a good brother!
Yun Zhonghe's hand was on his golden sword, his body pressed against the wall, slowly approaching the door.
Just then, a group of people passed by outside.
"Did that kid run this way?"
"Search!"
