MTL - I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times-Chapter 439 Rest in the cave
They were rushed to an unknown place. The forest was deep and lush, the weather was gloomy and it seemed like it was about to rain, and the roars of wild beasts could be heard faintly in the distance.
Ning Chuyi identified the direction, tightened her arms, hugged the sleeping Lingchu and walked forward.
There is no road underfoot, and everywhere we pass are either piles of rocks or dead branches and leaves that sink into our calves, making it difficult to walk.
As he walked, he looked carefully.
Look for a place to stay, and be prepared for wild beasts to suddenly appear and attack you.
After walking for nearly two-quarters of an hour, I found a long, narrow and steep path leading to an unknown place.
The cold wind was blowing, and he was wearing soaked clothes. It was probably cold, so Ling Chu subconsciously shrank into Ning Chuyi's generous arms.
Ning Chuyi lowered his eyes, looked up again, and walked towards the path.
The path is winding and winding, and the further in you go, the more difficult it becomes.
But Ning Chuyi never thought of giving up Ling Chu in her arms. His brows were silent and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, but he always held her firmly forward.
Finally, after walking about three miles, I found a cave halfway up the mountain.
He quickened his pace and walked to the entrance of the cave. He did not walk in hastily.
First he picked up a small stone with his toes, caught it with one hand, and with a little effort, threw it into the cave.
Listen carefully.
After a thud came from the cave, there was no other movement.
After waiting quietly for a while, I didn’t hear anything unusual.
At this point, I breathed a sigh of relief.
Luckily, there doesn't seem to be any wild animals in this cave.
But he still did not let down his guard and carefully carried Ling Chu inside.
The entrance to the cave is narrow and a little dark. But the further you go in, the more spacious it becomes.
What surprised Ning Chuyi was that this turned out to be a hole within a hole.
Walking along, a breeze blew by, and a thin light shone down from the small hole at the top of the stone wall, spreading on the dry ground.
Going a dozen steps further to the other side, there is actually a natural stone window about seven or eight inches tall on the stone wall, with a lush green mountain outside.
Looking around carefully, I didn't find anything wrong.
The hanging heart finally fell.
Choose a clean place, bend down and gently put Ling Chu down.
He raised his hand and took off his cloak, walked to one side to wring out the water on it, then walked back and spread it on the ground.
Hold up Ling Chu with both arms, lay him down on the cloak, and then quickly walked out of the cave.
Lingchu was still sleeping, and Ning Chuyi did not dare to go far. He collected two bundles of dry firewood and a pile of dead leaves to ignite the fire nearby.
After carrying him back to the cave, he saw Ling Chu curled up in a ball and sleeping.
He was busy setting up firewood and lighting it...
He then built a rack with branches and put his coat on it to bake.
Looking back, he saw that Ling Chu was all wet. He walked up and called out a few times.
Ling Chu didn’t react at all.
Her body bones were already weak, and she had been soaked in water for so long in the cold winter months. If she was allowed to wear soaked clothes all the time, she might become seriously ill.
Although I don’t want to offend her, there is no cure or cure here, and I don’t know how long it will take to get out of this forest.
In case that weak body cannot hold on...
He hesitated for a moment, then finally raised his hand to take off her outer garment and put it on a wooden rack to bake.
He glanced sideways and hurried out again.
He quickly moved a few large rocks and blocked the entrance of the cave, and also dragged some branches to cover it.
Looking around, he found nothing unusual and then walked towards the place he had previously favored.
I shot two pheasants as fast as I could. After I found the stream water and cleaned it, I also found a sunken stone trough, filled some stream water, and took it back along the original route.
Move branches and boulders away, and after entering, block the entrance from the inside to prevent wild animals from breaking in.
Back in the cave, Ling Chu was still asleep.
I touched my forehead, but fortunately there was no fever. Afraid that she would be cold, he added two more firewood to the fire, built another shelf with branches, and put the skewered pheasant on it to roast.
As the chicken fat dripped onto the fire, an alluring fragrance spread out in the cave, and the chicken soup boiling in the stone trough slowly began to boil.
Not long after, a dull thunder exploded outside the cave, followed by the patter of rain, and icy raindrops drifted in from the stone window along with the cold wind.
Ning Chuyi walked over to check and saw that there were not many raindrops coming in, and it had no impact on Ling Chu and the fire, so he felt relieved.
As soon as I turned around, I heard a subtle squeak.
Ling Chu opened his eyes in a daze and heard a soft voice asking, "I'm awake, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
“Very thirsty.”
I answered subconsciously and found myself lying down, trying to sit up.
Ning Chuyi reached out and gave him a hand.
Ling Chu was about to say thank you, but when he saw his handsome face, the memories before he fainted suddenly flooded into his mind.
Thinking of the entanglement with Lord Ning in the river and the wolfish words he said, Ling Chu's face suddenly turned red, and he was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole in the ground.
Her reputation was completely ruined!
Seeing her long eyelashes flapping like a fan and her eyes panicked, Ning Chuyi knew that she must have remembered her previous memory.
Afraid of her embarrassment, he said nothing, turned back to the fire as if nothing had happened, and brought the stone trough along with the chicken soup in it.
He then used a bowl-like stone to scoop out the chicken soup and the chicken from the stone trough, and put them into another stone bowl. He also took a pair of chopsticks cut from a tree branch and handed them to Ling Chu.
“In the wilderness, conditions are limited, so we can only make do with some.”
Seeing that Ning Chuyi didn't mention the previous incident, Ling Chu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and suppressed his shyness and embarrassment.
Trying to put on a calm expression, he reached out and took the chicken soup and chopsticks.
“My lord, you must be humble. It is extremely rare for you to have roast chicken and chicken soup in this wilderness. If it weren’t for you, I would have to chew the bark and eat the leaves.”
I don’t know whether Ning Chuyi thought this incident was nothing, or was worried that she would think of the previous incident, so she didn’t say anything more.
He just let Ling Chu drink chicken soup and gave her a piece of roast chicken.
After she had eaten and drank enough, she silently and quickly disposed of the rest.
Finally, he brought over the dried outer clothes. "The clothes you are wearing are still wet. You must change them and dry them to avoid getting cold and getting sick."
“I’ll go and guard the entrance of the cave. If anything happens, just call.”
Lingchu looked at his back as he walked away silently, knowing that he was avoiding suspicion and told her to stay at the entrance of the cave so that she would not be afraid and feel at ease.
Wearing wet clothes is indeed uncomfortable, and Ling Chu is also afraid of catching wind and cold.
Quickly took off his middle coat, put on his outer clothes, and put them together with Ning Chuyi's coat on the wooden rack to bake.
Then he raised his voice and said, "Sir, I have changed. Please take off your wet clothes and dry them."
"No, my clothes are almost dry. If you are weak, put on my outer clothes to avoid catching cold."
How can that be done?
It was the twelfth month of winter, and he had injuries on his body. He had been soaked in cold water for a long time, just in case he was also sick.
Who will take her out of this uninhabited virgin forest?
Lingchu walked out of the cave and insisted that Ning Chuyi also change out of his wet clothes.
It was windy outside the cave. She was shivering from the cold and even sneezed.
Ning Chuyi had no choice but to walk back into the cave and change her clothes.
Two people sat by the fire and warmed themselves up silently.

(I went to the hospital to get the results today, and the doctor prescribed Western medicine and 14 large bags of Chinese medicine. I couldn’t help but shudder when I thought about having to drink Chinese medicine twice a day for the next two weeks. Instead of asking for votes today, I want to ask for some blessings. , everyone wishes me that after taking this medicine, I will never have to go to the hospital every three days again.)
ps: Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, I wish you all:
Everything you ask for is what you wish for, and everything you wish for comes true.
His brows are full of joy when everything is perfect.
