C441

Gu Daiyan woke up from his sleep, his body still emitting the smell of mud from Duan Chengxuan's tent.

The ghost, who was taking a nap, was shocked by her actions. He only saw Gu Liuyan's eyes glaze over for a moment, and only after a long while did he raise his hand to press between his eyebrows. He pulled at his cloak and stood up: "I want to follow him to the gutter."

"It's still dark." "You've only slept for an incense stick of time."

"So fast?" Gu Liuyan was quite shocked in her heart. She wiped away the sweat on her forehead and thought of the twisted expressions of Duan Cheng Xuan and Su Yu Wan in her dream. Her stomach churned.

She read quietly for a while before returning to the camp.

Duan Chengxuan was already sitting on the black horse, the silver armor on his body flickered with a faint and gentle light under the morning light, and his gaze was completely different from the eagle-like gaze.

Someone brought a horse for Gu Danyan, so she could only feign clumsiness as she climbed up. Originally, she thought that Duan Chengxuan would bring a few people with him to the gutter, but she heard him say coldly, "This matter can't be known to anyone, just say that I'm still in the tent."

"Yes." The deputy general who was beside him understood everything.

"If you don't bring anyone with you, what will you do if anything happens to the prince?" Gu Liuyan recalled her dream just now. It seemed like the dreams related to Duan Chengxuan always carried the smell of blood, and she subconsciously did not want to be alone with him.

"Not many people can hurt me yet." Duan Chengxuan pulled the reins and walked forward.

Gu Danyan had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow him. In a trance, she recalled the surprise Su Yu Wan pointed at her yesterday. Her fingertips subconsciously gripped her sore lower abdomen, and her legs were sore from the winter wind.

The man in front rode his horse through the woods. Whether it was his knife-edged face or his powerful arm, they were both powerful enough to give any soldier a sense of security and trust. However, Gu Danyan was afraid of being alone with him.

Gu Mingyan wanted to pretend that she didn't know how to ride a horse, so they dragged their way for a long time. Finally, they arrived in front of the ditch, and two soldiers hidden in the grass walked up to greet them, bringing them to a place outside the poisonous miasma.

There was no difference inside or outside the miasma. If not for the fact that some soldiers had fainted due to poisoning, they would not have discovered it.

Gu Danyan and Duan Chengxuan covered their noses and mouths in unison.

"Is there any way to cure the poison?" Duan Chengxuan directly looked at Gu Daiyan.

He shook his head gently, "This poison has been accumulating for a long time. However, when I was flipping through the local records, I heard that the descendant of that old man went down the cliff a dozen years ago. I don't know if he walked out, but if he did, I think there's something at the bottom of the cliff."

"In that case, we will know if we use the rope to go down." A soldier next to him said.

Gu Daiyan held the vines with one hand and looked at the edge of the cliff. He shook his head: "Even if you use rope, you won't be able to stand without a good Qing Gong. There should be moss growing under the cliff."

The two soldiers were in a slightly difficult situation, and they were curious about this when Duan Cheng Xuan had already placed one of her hands on Gu Xuan's waist. She used a sturdy tree vine to tie their waists together and said in a deep voice, "I'll bring you down. Do you only need to find the remnant record?"

"Probably." Gu Liuyan's heart started beating intensely. Her hair was practically stroking Duan Chengxuan's chin, and after a while, she heard Duan Chengxuan's voice, "Your physique, I don't know how to raise it, but you're just like a woman."

I am a woman.

Gu Daiyan was glad that he did not place anything on his waist, and he was not worried about being discovered now. He only raised his head and nearly smashed Duan Chengxuan's chin, but he still said stubbornly, "It's not my fault if I don't grow up."

Seeing Yun Chen in such a state, Duan Cheng Xuan didn't even notice the corners of her mouth slightly rise.

However, Gu Mingyan completely took in the sight. She rolled her eyes and impolitely said in a low voice, "No matter how much my sister and I think about each other, we're still men. Your highness, you can see it clearly."

Despite being reminded in such a way, Duan Chengxuan's expression didn't change, and he only restrained his smile and didn't speak any further.

The two soldiers hurriedly tied up the ropes for the two of them. Just in case, the two of them had a rope tied behind their backs, not to mention that Duan Chengxuan's identity was there. The two soldiers carefully inspected him for a long time before slowly letting the two of them go.

The gully wasn't really very deep, but rather there was a swamp beneath it. The cliff also had some moss and tree vines, so it seemed to be so deep that the bottom couldn't be seen.

Even though the two of them accidentally stepped on the moss and slid down, they were not heavily injured. Gu Liuyan was supported by Duan Chengxuan to stand up, and he patted off the dust on his body as he sized up everything that happened here. He said in a curious manner, "I wonder how Senior lived all those years ago."

Duan Chengxuan held her with one hand, afraid that her small body would fall into the swamp and disappear without a trace. His sharp eyes noticed something within the thin mist, and he narrowed his eyes slightly. "That seems to be a room with a fence."

"A dignified prince actually knows about fences." When he came back to his senses, he saw Duan Chengxuan looking at him with a threatening expression. She only followed his words with a cold snort, before shaking off his hand and walking over.

There was indeed an old and worn out house here. Duan Chengxuan began to search for it, while Gu Daiyan flipped through the damp wooden scrolls and scrolls. He walked alone to the fence and dug out a box with his bare hands.

Duan Cheng Xuan clapped her hands as she walked over and opened the box. Inside was a prescription written in beast skin.

"On the contrary, I don't know if that senior is still here." Duan Chengxuan closed the box once again. "If he can take it in for his own use, he's quite a talent."

"They should be there, but I saw some dead animals over there. The soil that our predecessors planted has been destroyed too, so we shouldn't risk going up from the poisonous miasma, and it's best to remove the poison before coming back down." Gu Liuyan picked up the dirt from his palm and wiped it with his clothes.

"It's not good to bring you up." Duan Cheng Xuan glanced at the precipice.

Gu Liuyan choked and sat down on a rock: "Then your highness should go back first, I'll wait here for you to cure the poison mist before leaving."

"There's no food or drink here."

"Then I'll have to trouble Your Highness to get someone to throw some fruits down from time to time. I'm not afraid of dirt." Gu Danyan casually sat there, and even made a gesture of invitation towards Duan Chengxuan.

"Although the poisonous miasma has fallen from above, some wild animals must have also survived like those elders." Duan Cheng Xuan continued.

Gu Danyan didn't know when Duan Chengxuan would be so long-winded. It was just that she didn't want to be alone with him anymore.

But after a while, Duan Chengxuan only threw out an arrow and then tied the wooden box to a rope. He sat down with her and said, "If you die, you won't be able to explain it to your elder sister."

Gu Liuyan was slightly stunned. The panic in her heart had calmed down a little, so she simply leaned back a little, placed her hands on the ground and sighed: "It's too late to report it now."

What he got in return was Duan Chengxuan's endless silence.
