Everyone in the family knew that Jiaoniang and Ye Xuan were together, and no one intentionally tried to disturb them. However, no one expected Jiaoniang to sneak into the house, clean up some clothes, and take some soap to sneak out.

Ye Xuan ran while carrying her. Every breath he took felt like a light movement art, allowing him to leap far away. Every time he looked at it, it felt extremely mystical.

He brought Jiaoniang and ran to the small hut halfway up the mountain. This small hut was the place where hunters rested when they entered the mountain, but it had been many years since a hunter dared to enter the mountain, hence the house was abandoned.

Previously, when he wanted to stay far away from Jiaoniang, he lived right here. There was a fence blocking the outside of the house and he had cleaned up quite a bit. It was just that he hadn't been here recently, and some wild beasts were messing up the exterior of the house.

He tidied up the bed in the small room and used water to wipe off the dust. Only then did he manage to stay for the time being.

The mountain was much cooler than the foot of the mountain. There were even more mosquitoes in the mountain, and occasionally, there were even sounds of giant creatures running in the forest. It was very scary.

With Ye Xuan by his side, Jiaoniang was not afraid in the slightest. On the contrary, he was extremely excited, "Where is that Mountain Spring that you mentioned?

Ye Xuan was squatting beside the stove tying up a torch. Hearing that, he smiled at her, "That place is very dark, if I don't get a torch, I might get lost too."

The place he said sounded like a maze. Jiaoniang had lived in the Plains Region in his previous life, so he rarely visited even the mountains. He had often heard the elderly say that the mountain that stretched for a thousand miles was a treasure, but he had never had the chance to investigate. He didn't expect that living a new life would fulfill his childhood wish of exploring the mountains.

"That place is a large natural karst cave. I once followed a little deer and accidentally entered there. I never thought that there would be a special cave inside, you will definitely like it." Ye Xuan said as he quickly finished setting up the torch. He stuffed the torch's head into the oil barrel and turned it around to ignite it.

"Come here," Ye Xuan squatted down, and signaled Jiaoniang to climb onto his back.

Ye Xuan did not run in the forest. He was already deep in the mountains, if he made too much of a noise, it would inevitably attract wild beasts.

On the way out, Ye Xuan held a large blade in his right hand. The blade was three inches wide, and shone coldly under the moonlight.

Even Jiaoniang had never seen this blade before, he did not know where Ye Xuan had placed it.

Jiaoniang didn't say anything along the way, and didn't know how far Ye Xuan had walked. He carefully observed the road under his feet the entire time, and didn't feel the passage of time either. However, the further he walked, the colder he felt.

"Is it a waterfall?"

"Yes." Ye Xuan nodded, he did not dare be careless. Pushing aside a tree branch, the silver lake's surface impressively appeared before his eyes. A cool moon hung suspended in the sky, and the waterfall on the cliff cascaded down aggressively like the Milky Way. That beautiful scenery was something that was worth Jiaoniang remembering for his entire life.

The moonlight poured down, and from afar, one could still see something walking around the lake. After seeing Ye Xuan, it would then walk away.

"You're not going to bathe in the lake, are you?" Jiaoniang didn't dare believe it. The beautiful moon bathing in the lake was a beautiful sight to behold, but no one could guarantee if there was anything underwater staring at her.

After all, in nature, this kind of water source was a place where every force fought over each other. In the animal kingdom, how many bloody scenes of battles would happen by the lake?

The water vapor of the waterfall permeated here. Jiaoniang was not warm at all, and was a little cold instead. Fortunately, Ye Xuan didn't plan to let Jiaoniang bathe in the lake, so he gave the torch to Jiaoniang to take. Carrying Jiaoniang, he walked to the edge of the cliff, stepped on the rocks and started to climb.

Ah!" Jiaoniang hugged him tightly in shock, her eyes closed, the waterfall cascading down her body felt a chill, but in the next second she felt nothing.

"Don't be afraid, open your eyes and take a look." Ye Xuan put her down, as if he was showing off to a treasure, and said, "No one else has come here before, follow me."

What a beautiful scenery this was! The torch had long since been extinguished by the waterfall, but the hole before him was glowing. The cave was not very big, and after Ye Xuan pulled her hand and walked for around 10 steps, they suddenly became wider, with water drops falling from the top of the cave, Jiaoniang held his breath, his eyes wide open as he looked at his surroundings.

These were all the work of nature, until they walked into a natural mine, where there were about a dozen large and small ponds, some the size of washbasins, some the size of small lakes, and all the way until they reached a large cave that could accommodate a thousand people. There were dozens of ponds, some of which were small, some of which were large, some of which were small, but all of them were emitting steam.

Jiaoniang squatted down and reached his hands into the pool, it was hot indeed!

"This is a hot spring!" Jiaoniang shouted in surprise as he moved his hands swiftly along the way.

Ye Xuan's black face flushed red, he did not know where to look for the best, he did not expect that the surprise would come so quickly, and only wished that he had not thought of this before, and only knew to bury himself in work. But it didn't seem too late. Just bring Jiaoniang back from now on.

He went to a large pond and dove into the water. Jiaoniang sighed comfortably, this feeling was really too comfortable.

Was there still cold water dripping from the top of the mountain, like a bath back in his previous life? Jiaoniang was amused by this thought. How could those baths be comfortable with natural hot springs?
