He cupped her cheeks, his gaze still as cold as a blade. He slowly placed a mouthful on her, "Don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you for now."

Li Ruo could not help but tremble, and of course she could hear his words, temporarily. He said it, but not yet, because this man was too terrifying.

Right now, he was very unsettled, as if he had already predicted that she would leave and fall in love with Cheng Yichen, so that uncontrollable feeling spread throughout his entire body.

He didn't want to lose it, so he might as well destroy it. However, there was still a trace of reluctance in his heart, a sharp sadness.

"Has your physical strength recovered?" His deep voice rang out.

Li Ruo's heart was in a mess, she truly did not know how to face him. He had just said something so frightening, so her entire body was trembling with fear, as though he was really afraid that he would really kill her.

"My head is still dizzy." Her hands were entwined, and her back seemed to be sweating. She was really nervous and scared.

"Then let's rest for a while." Leaning on the tree, Jing Moxuan's cold face had a trace of faint annoyance. Right now his entire person was very restless, and his anger was about to explode.

Even if he was strong enough, he could not suppress all of it, so some of the words he had just said were in it.

After sitting for a while, Li Ruo struggled to stand up and kicked him. She felt that he had recovered a little, "I can leave now, shall we continue?"

"Then let's continue." Jing Moxuan lowered his head. He was still leading the way for her, but the journey was very smooth. There were basically no traps, but there were two more dead people.

Li Ruo was a little tired, leaning on a tree, she gasped for breath, "Have you been here before? Otherwise, why would they be so familiar with these traps? "

"Twice." Jing Moxuan explained lightly, "That's why I have some memories of this place."

"Why are you here?" Li Ruo's eyes were wide open as she asked in disbelief, "Is it fun?"

Jing Moxuan glanced at her, and a cold smile appeared on his face, "How could it be because it's fun? It's because I exchanged it with Grandfather. He said that he would give it to me once I walk out. "

"Then what did you ask?"

He narrowed his eyes and laughed at himself, "One is about my mother, one is about Cheng Yichen."

Li Ruo raised her eyebrows slightly, and did not continue asking. Even if he were to ask, he would probably not answer, but she was actually very curious about what Cheng Yichen said that was.

What secret does Cheng Yichen have?

"I'm going to take a rest. Go ahead, there aren't any traps." Jing Moxuan closed his eyes and said indifferently.

Li Ruo stood in place and thought for a while, then carefully walked to an empty land. She felt that it was a bit strange, why was there a place that was so empty here?

Just when she was feeling curious, she suddenly felt a tremor under her feet, and then her entire body fell down. She felt as if she was stepping on mud, paralyzed, and no matter how she struggled, she couldn't struggle.

"Xuan, Jing Moxuan, come and save me!" He could only shout out his name in panic.

She must have fallen into the swamp? There was a layer of soil on it, so standing for a while wasn't a problem, but after a while it fell? What was she curious about? "He actually put himself in such a position.

"Jing Moxuan, come and save me. Help!"

A figure suddenly appeared in the empty space. Jing Moxuan looked at Li Ruo who had fallen into the swamp with a cold and indifferent expression, his face expressionless. He stared at her in a daze, not planning to save her.

Li Ruo's heart instantly turned cold, but the swamp was already almost as tall as her waist, and it was in grave danger, "Xuan, save me."

He sneered, then picked up the bag she placed on the ground and said indifferently: Li Ruo, this is not considered me harming you, right?

"You … you really won't save me?"

"Since you don't love me, then die. How can I raise an ingrate who doesn't love me? My interest in you has run out. " Jing Moxuan sneered at her as he watched her slowly sink deeper into the ground.

"In the next life, you should fall in love with me and not Cheng Yichen. I can't be considered to have lost this bet, after all, you haven't made a choice yet." He spoke in a relaxed tone, giving her one last deep look before finally turning around and leaving without the slightest hesitation.

Li Ruo knew that she shouldn't have struggled, but she still couldn't help but reach out her hand to pull a few times, only to get what she wanted. Quickly, she panicked and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Help, help!"

How could there be anyone here? How could he have saved her so coincidentally? She felt like she was about to give up on herself, but she didn't expect that Jing Moxuan would actually just leave like that.

Jing Moxuan had actually abandoned her, and her head was buzzing. He was not willing to believe this was true, even though she had expected it when he said that he wanted to kill her, he still felt sad.

At the same time, in a small room, Old Master Jing looked at the monitor elder's face and revealed a sinister smile, "My grandson is really ruthless."

When the butler, who was standing behind him, saw this, his facial muscles trembled. He slowly pulled out his phone and pressed a few times in his pocket.

It was already at the bottom of the cliff, Li Ruo screamed until her throat became hoarse, she was about to lose all hope, when she heard a series of hurried footsteps, her eyes lit up and she shouted, "Is there anyone here? "Help!"

A black silhouette rushed over, but when he saw Li Ruo who was trapped in the swamp, her face immediately changed, "Don't move!"

After saying that, he quickly found a rope and threw it to her, "Put the rope on yourself."

Li Ruo immediately did as she was told, her face carrying a bit of worry, "Can you really save me?"

Cheng Yichen's face was gloomy, he pursed his lips even more, and said: "Yes, of course!"

He quickly tied the rope around his hand, then circled around the nearest tree and forcefully pulled it up. Little by little, she was being pulled up, as if he was pulling out radishes.

She didn't dare move, waiting for him to pull her up like a statue. Half an hour later, she was finally pulled ashore.

"Why are you so careless? You scared me to death, okay? "

Li Ruo moved a little in his embrace and said softly, "My body is very dirty and covered in mud."

"Idiot, you scared me to death." Cheng Yichen grabbed her face and took a deep breath, the sincere worry in his eyes didn't seem to be fake.

"This place is really dangerous." She lowered her head in embarrassment, but her face was flushed red. Her heart felt even warmer, being by Cheng Yichen's side was really good, very warm.

The two of them rested for a bit, then Li Ruo accidentally saw his almost rotten palm, and his heart felt as though it was struck ruthlessly by something, as she muttered: "Your hand is already like that."

"It doesn't matter." Cheng Yichen replied indifferently, he raised his head and looked at her, "As a man, what's a bit of an injury?"

Li Ruo's eyes instantly turned red, he rummaged through his backpack, and finally found the medicine and gauze, "It will still hurt, Cheng Yichen, I really have to thank you, you saved me."

A helpless smile hung on his face. Looking at how she was helping him dress the wounds seriously, he felt very comforted, as if he was back to the days when he was normal with Jiang Ruoqing.

"Where's Jing Moxuan? "Where did he go?"

Hearing Jing Moxuan's name, Li Ruo could not help but tremble a little, then quickly shook his head: "I don't know."

"He left you here?" Cheng Yichen anxiously grabbed her hand, "This bastard!"

Li Ruo's face revealed a helpless smile, "It's also hard for me to imagine that it's true, but it's indeed the truth. I was abandoned by Jing Moxuan."

"You and me." He looked into her eyes and said word by word, "I won't abandon you. Live together. Die together."

She didn't know why, but when he said those words, he was clearly very calm. However, deep in her heart, there seemed to be a huge wave.

Li Ruo held tightly onto his hand, and said softly, "Don't you think I'm a burden?"

"No, I'm here to protect you."

Her face revealed a big smile, her heart felt warm. "Cheng Yichen, you make me feel very happy, as if I'm that woman called Jiang Ruoqing.

"No." He turned his face away, and the sunlight shone through the shattered leaves onto his face. His obsidian eyes had a special charm to them, but it seemed complicated and profound.

Cheng Yichen's heart was very conflicted. She still hadn't found the Holy Hand, and was really afraid that Li Ruo would be in danger by his side. If something really happened, he wouldn't be able to forgive herself for the rest of her life.

Carefully walking forward, he suddenly saw a large banyan tree blocking his path. "I'm afraid there might be a trap ahead. Wait a moment, I'll go over."

"Let's go together." Li Ruo tightly gripped his arm and refused to let go.

Cheng Yichen's face was calm as he patiently explained to her, "I was just going over there to check the situation. Don't worry about me, nothing will happen to me."

"Then be careful."

Li Ruo looked at him with a face full of hesitation. Her heart was tangled, and her palms were sweating nervously.

He walked over with a nervous expression, vaguely feeling that this place was not simple. There must be a hidden mechanism here, but he was temporarily unable to tell where it was.

The banyan tree was huge, and its feet were flat on the ground. There should be a river nearby, or else it wouldn't be so moist. He stood on top of the banyan tree's roots and looked around, but didn't see anything.

It seemed like there was nothing wrong with this tree. It was hard to walk on the road, but it did not look like there was a hidden mechanism.

"Li Ruo, there doesn't seem to be any problems here."

"Really?" She carefully walked over, but who would have known that he would not even be able to take a step forward? His face instantly became deathly pale, "Cheng Yichen, come over here quickly! It's like someone's tugging at my foot! "

"Don't move!" Cheng Yichen ran over in a few steps, grabbed her and pulled forcefully, but something really seemed to be pulling on top of his pants. His expression became colder, and he placed her down, crouched down, and carefully pried apart the layer of leaves beneath her feet.

Li Ruo could not help but shiver, "Is there something down there?"

"I'm not sure yet."

He said while trying to get up, but very quickly, his body froze and he abruptly stood up. "Don't look!"

Li Ruo would definitely not look at it that way? As if she had gone mad, Cheng Yichen held her tightly as she tried her best to calm her down, "Don't be nervous, don't scream, can I help you handle it?"

"Is he, he, is he alive? "Why are you holding my leg?" Li Ruo asked with a trembling voice.

Cheng Yichen's expression became grave, and once again squatted down to carefully observe the situation, only after confirming that it was a person who had already started to rot, he said, "He's not alive, don't be afraid, he won't do anything."
