Reborn as the spoiled male wife of the mortal enemy

Chapter 279 The Road That Falls from the Sky

The next morning, Bai Yufeng came to ask about the next plan.

Bai Xun thought for a moment and asked, "Is that group still in Xinchuanling?"

"They're still there, but our people discovered a few days ago that they had evacuated some people," said Bai Yufeng.

"Since the direction we were searching in was correct, you should just proceed as planned. I'll take Ah Fu and Bai Hao around the mountains," Bai Xun said.

"It's too dangerous, you can't..."

"It's dangerous when we're together in a group. It's more convenient to search around when there are fewer people and they're all strangers." Bai Xun said.

"Then you must pay attention to safety." Bai Yufeng said.

"Well, haven't I been here before? I even searched the mountain with everyone to find Grandpa Nan. Don't worry, there will be no problem." Bai Xun said.

After breakfast, Bai Xun took Ah Fu and Bai Hao up the mountain.

At the first light of dawn, looking at the top of the mountain from afar, you can see clouds and mist, and the mountains are undulating, layer upon layer, like an elegant ink painting.

"The scenery here is really nice." Pakho said excitedly.

"Yes, the mountains here are much higher than those in He'an, and the scenery is more magnificent." Ah Fu said breathlessly.

Seeing Ah Fu sweating and panting, Pakho said with a smile, "How far have we walked? You're already so tired?"

Ah Fu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "From the New Year until now, I've been eating and drinking in the villa all day and haven't done much work. I've gained five pounds."

"The villa is okay?" Pakho winked at him.

Ah Fu glanced at Bai Xun cautiously and said, "Wherever the Second Young Madam is, that's a good place. Wherever the Second Young Madam is, that's our home."

Bai Xun chuckled.

Pakho kicked Ah Fu and said, "Hey, you've become so eloquent."

Ah Fu smiled and said, "I'm speaking from the heart!"

When the three of them arrived at the place where they had dug the tomb passage before, the entrance to the cave had collapsed and weeds had sprouted on it.

"Oh, it took so much effort to dig out such a road. Now we have to start all over again." Ah Fu said depressedly.

Bai Xun recalled the tomb passage that Grandpa Nan had led them to dig in the beginning. He had walked through that passage more than once, and from there, through the collapsed tomb chamber. If the tomb chamber hadn't collapsed, they would have reached the cave if they had continued walking forward.

He looked up at the sun. According to Bai Yufeng, the midday sun should be able to shine into the cave. He estimated the general direction and location of the tomb passage, the collapsed tomb chamber, and the cave.

Seeing him getting further and further away from the tomb passage, Ah Fu hurriedly asked, "Hey, Second Young Master, where are you going?"

"Just take a look." Bai Xun said.

Pakho and Ah Fu hurriedly followed. After walking for about half an hour, Pak Xun looked up at the sky again and made a mark under the tree.

"Go back and come back tomorrow." Bai Xun said.

The next morning, Bai Xun took Ah Fu and Bai Hao up the mountain again, this time heading straight up from the location he had marked.

Ah Fu saw that they were getting further and further away from the place where they had dug the tomb, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Second Young Master, where are we going?"

"Climb higher, maybe there will be some surprises along the way." Bai Xun looked up, "You must move gently, those people may be nearby, you must be careful. Observe your surroundings and watch for any signs of people staying there."

If nothing goes wrong, if you keep going up from here, you should be able to find the road.

"Yes!"

The three of them climbed up for half an hour.

Ah Fu whispered, "Second Young Master, I've discovered something!"

Bai Xun hurried over to take a look. There was an open space behind a big tree. The grass was flattened, as if it had been stepped on by someone.

"Second Young Master, there are traces of fire here." Ah Fu saw some black ash.

"The soil on top is new soil, and there's something hidden underneath." Pakho said as he hurriedly dug up the soil, and sure enough, there were a lot of ashes hidden underneath.

"A group of people stayed here not long ago." Bai Xun said.

It seems that his guess was correct.

The tomb is below, but the road comes from the sky.

It could be an escape route left by the tomb builders for themselves, it could be a path carved out by tomb robbers, or it could be a naturally formed part of the tomb.

The three of them continued to walk up, and the mountain road became more and more difficult to walk on.

After climbing for a while with difficulty, Pakho suddenly blocked their way and signaled them to hide with his eyes.

After a while, two people came down from not far away. They were both wearing shorts and had guns on their waists. They must be on patrol.

After the two walked away, Bai Xun whispered, "Let's go around to the back."

"it is good."

As soon as the words fell, Ah Fu and Pakho suddenly felt a pain at the back of their necks, their vision went dark, and they lost consciousness.

Before the man behind him could attack, Bai Xun rolled over suddenly, and the stick in the man's hand missed.

"Your skills are pretty good. I thought Second Young Master Bai was a weak scholar who couldn't lift anything with his hands or carry anything on his shoulders." The man looked at Bai Xun with his face covered and his arms folded.

Bai Xun stood up, brushed off the mud on his body, and asked calmly, "What's your name, brother?"

The man laughed: "You seem quite calm in the face of difficulties. What? Aren't you afraid that I will kill you? In this remote place, no one will know if you die."

Bai Xun glanced at the gun on his waist and said, "If you really wanted to kill me, you would have shot me just now."

The man raised his chin and said, "Isn't the tomb passage dug by your Bai family down there? What is Second Young Master Bai doing here?"

Bai Xun looked at him and said, "Sometimes the tomb is down there, but the road isn't necessarily down there. Right?"

The man was slightly startled and said, "As the boss said, the Bai family member we should be most careful of is the second young master Bai. Although the things down there are always based on ability, whoever finds it gets it. But sometimes, using guns and knives is more effective, after all, it's faster to rob. Don't you agree?"

"Don't get me wrong, I'm here to find Grandpa Nan, not the underground fairy palace." Bai Xun said bluntly.

The man smiled and said, "Nan? Oh... Your Bai family has always relied on an old man named Nan to help you find the tomb. What? Is he missing?"

Bai Xun said, "If you know where he is, please tell him. I will protect Nanchun and his mother. Please rest assured."

The man stopped laughing and was silent for a moment before saying, "Second Young Master Bai really knows how to joke... You lost someone and you came to me to look for them?"

"This road... I won't tell anyone. I said, I came here just to find Grandpa Nan, not for the underground fairy palace." Bai Xun said.

The man smiled playfully: "Road? Where is there any road here?"

"There is a road that falls from the sky." Bai Xun said calmly.

The man stopped smiling and tightened his grip on the gun.
