Xi Yu approached Zhao Yun mysteriously and said in a low voice, "General Zhao, there is something unusual in the basement of the temple."

Zhao Yun raised his eyebrows when he heard this. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He asked, "Oh? Prime Minister. What's going on?"

"There are some unknown secrets and treasures hidden in that basement."

When Zhao Yun heard this, he felt a little curious, but he remained calm and just nodded slightly to show that he understood.

Xi Yu continued, "Let the other soldiers find a place to live outside, and you stay here."

Zhao Yun nodded and said, "Okay, Prime Minister, I understand."

Then he turned and went out, ready to explain the situation to the soldiers.

Zhao Yun came in front of the soldiers, his expression serious and solemn. He cleared his throat and said loudly: "Brothers, the Prime Minister has ordered that you all go outside to find a place to live. I will stay in this temple."

The soldiers nodded and responded, "Yes, General!"

Zhao Yun watched the soldiers leave in an orderly manner, and a sense of emotion welled up in his heart.

He knew that these soldiers were Xiyu's most loyal companions and would follow Xiyu no matter when and where.

Hai She sat in the room, looking somewhat gloomy. She looked at Shuang'er and said softly, "Shuang'er, since we have met Xi Yu, but he won't take us in, let's go."

Shuang'er heard this, a trace of confusion and reluctance appeared on her face, she couldn't help but ask: "Then where are we going next?"

Hai She shook his head helplessly, smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know either, but I can't just stay here and not show any shame."

As she said this, a trace of loneliness and helplessness flashed in her eyes.

Shuang'er bit her lip, tears flashed in her eyes. She gently held Haishe's hand and said with a sob, "But where can we go? At least this is a place to stay..."

Haishe sighed, patted Shuang'er's hand gently, and comforted her: "Don't worry, there is always a way out, we will always find a place to go."

After saying that, she stood up and looked into the distance with a determined look, as if looking for the direction of the future.

Hai She took a deep breath and walked to Tuoba Yu with heavy steps.

She looked a little lonely, and said softly: "Master Tuoba, I'm here to say goodbye to you. We are leaving."

Tuoba Yu was slightly startled, then he understood what she meant, looked at her and said slowly: "Oh? You are leaving now."

Hai She nodded slightly and continued, "Yes, now that we're out, we won't go back to the Immortal Monument. As for where to go, we'll talk about it later." There was a trace of helplessness and confusion on her face.

Tuoba Yu smiled secretly in her heart. She of course understood what Haishe meant. She knew that she wanted to complain to her that Xiyu did not take them in.

"Well, I wish you a safe journey."

Haishe bit his lips lightly, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, then he turned and left. His back looked somewhat desolate.

Tuoba Yu looked at her leaving back, feeling a little emotional.

Haishe held Shuang'er's hand and slowly walked towards the meditation room where the old monk was. When they saw the old monk, Haishe's face showed a hint of sadness, and he said softly: "Master, we are here to say goodbye to you."

The old monk raised his head, a trace of fatigue flashed in his eyes, and his face was indeed much more haggard than in the previous few days.

He nodded slightly and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Oh, you are leaving now."

Haishe nodded gently, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes, and said: "Yes, Master, we have decided to leave."

Haishe bit his lip, his eyes full of apology, and said, "Master, thank you for your care during this period."

The old monk smiled slightly, a hint of gentleness flashed in his eyes, and said: "You're welcome, everything is fate, go ahead, and be careful on your way."

Haishe and Shuang'er bowed deeply to the old monk, then turned around and slowly left.

The old monk looked at their departing backs, with a hint of loneliness and melancholy in his eyes.

The night enveloped the earth. Xi Yu stood in an open space with a serious and determined look on his face.

He looked at Ouyang Linlin with sharp eyes, and when everyone was present, he cleared his throat.

Everyone immediately quieted down and looked at Xi Yu with focused expressions.

Xi Yu looked around at everyone and then said, "Tomorrow, we will set out for Langzhong." There was a determination in his eyes.

When everyone heard this, some doubts appeared on their faces, but they all listened quietly.

Xi Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said: "I am going to Langzhong to find someone. This is very important to us!"

His voice was steady and powerful, as if carrying an unquestionable power.

Tuoba Yu couldn't help but ask: "General, who are we looking for?"

Xi Yu glanced at her and said slowly: "No need to ask more questions now."

Tuoba Yu knew that since Xiyu had made the decision, he must have his reasons, and they just had to follow his footsteps.

Xi Yu nodded with satisfaction, then waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse and rest while he prepared for tomorrow's trip.

The next morning, the sun was shining on the earth. Xi Yu was leading the horse in a heroic manner, ready to mount and set off.

Tuoba Yu hurried over with an anxious look on his face, and shouted: "Husband, wait for me, I hope to go with you."

Xi Yu frowned, turned his head to look at Tuoba Yu, and said firmly: "It's really not necessary. The journey is difficult and dangerous. You should stay here."

Tuoba Yu's eyes widened, his face full of reluctance, and he quickly said, "No, I will go crazy if I stay here! I can't stay here for a moment."

Her face was full of stubbornness.

Xi Yu looked at her like this, sighed helplessly, hesitated for a moment and said: "Okay, then you can follow me, but you must follow my instructions on the way."

Tuoba Yu's face immediately showed joy, she nodded repeatedly, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, just let me follow you." Her eyes were full of excitement and anticipation.

Xi Yu shook his head helplessly, then kicked his horse and took Tuoba Yu with him on the journey to Langzhong.

Along the way, Tuoba Yu couldn't hold back his curiosity, so he rode closer to Xi Yu, tilted his head to look at him, and asked in confusion, "Husband, who are you going to see?"

Xi Yu looked straight ahead, his face calm, and said calmly: "Find a learned person."

Tuoba Yu was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He wanted to ask for more details, but seeing Xi Yu didn't want to talk more, he had to curl his lips, shrugged and said, "Okay, then I won't ask anymore."

There was a hint of helplessness on her face, but she no longer hesitated and drove her horse silently to follow Xiyu.

During the rest of the journey, although Tuoba Yu was still somewhat curious, he really did not continue to ask.

Occasionally, she would steal a glance at Xi Yu, her eyes revealing a thoughtful look, as if she was secretly guessing who that learned person would be.

Xi Yu, on the other hand, remained calm and composed, with a stern expression and determined eyes staring straight at the road ahead, as if the only thought in his mind was to reach the destination as quickly as possible and find that person.

The sunlight shone on him, making his figure look even more upright and resolute.

The two of them rode forward in silence, the sound of horse hooves clattering and raising a small cloud of dust, which was particularly clear on the quiet road.

As night fell, Haishe and Shuang'er walked into a slightly simple inn.

There was a trace of fatigue and confusion on Haishe's face, and she slowly sat down on a chair.

Shuang'er stood obediently aside, looking at Haishe with some confusion.

Haishe sighed softly, looked ahead with a somewhat empty look in his eyes, and said leisurely: "Shuang'er, why don't we go to the temple and become nuns?"

When Shuang'er heard this, her eyes widened, her face full of astonishment, and she cried out, "Madam, how could you have such an idea!"

Haishe turned around and looked at Shuang'er, a wry smile appeared on his face, and he said softly: "During this time in the temple, influenced by it, I suddenly feel that perhaps that kind of life is most suitable for me."

There was a hint of confusion and melancholy in her eyes.

Shuang'er hurriedly walked to Haishe, grabbed her hand, and said anxiously: "Madam, please don't talk nonsense. We still have a lot of things to do. How can we become nuns like this?" Her face was full of anxiety and worry.

Haishe's face was filled with pain. She stared blankly ahead and muttered to herself, "Without Shididu, I really can't survive..."

Tears welled up in her eyes and could fall at any time.

Shuang'er looked at Haishe distressedly and comforted him softly, "Madam, please don't be like this. I know you are very sad now, but time will heal everything."

Haishe turned around, looked at Shuang'er with tearful eyes, and said in a choked voice: "Really? I feel like my heart is about to break." Shuang'er nodded vigorously and said firmly: "Yes, ma'am. You must believe that as time goes by, you will slowly get rid of the sorrow. Although it is painful now, everything will be fine."

Hai She looked at Shuang Er silently. After a long time, he sighed softly and nodded slightly, saying, "Okay, maybe you are right. I hope time will make me get better slowly."

There was still deep sadness in her eyes, but there seemed to be a hint of hope for the future.

Shuang'er looked at Haishe and nodded slightly, feeling a little relieved. She then said, "Madam, you see, life is still long, and there are still many wonderful things waiting for us. Lord Shididu certainly doesn't want to see you continue to be depressed like this."

Haishe bit his lip, but couldn't help but let the tears fall.

"But I'm really confused right now. My heart aches when I think of him."

"Ma'am, I understand your pain, but we can't stay stuck in the past. We have to look forward and try to find other good things in life. Maybe one day, when you look back, you will find that this pain has gradually faded away."

"Shuang'er, you're right. I can't go on like this. I have to try to be strong."

A relieved smile appeared on Shuang'er's face.

"Yes, ma'am, you can do it. No matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, Shuang'er will always be with you."

Haishe held Shuang'er's hand tightly, with a touch of emotion in his eyes.

"Thank you, Shuang'er. Fortunately, you are always with me."

The two of them snuggled up to each other, warming each other in the quiet night.

Haishe and Shuang'er were immersed in their emotions. Suddenly, Shuang'er seemed to sense something strange. She frowned and looked towards the window vigilantly.

"Ma'am, something seems to be wrong."

Before Haishe could react, he saw a dark shadow quietly approaching the window.

Shuang'er widened her eyes in horror and was about to speak when she saw the man quickly poke a hole in the window paper.

"Who is it!" Haishe screamed, his face full of horror.

But it was too late, a strange smell began to pour in from the hole.

Shuang'er covered her mouth and nose, her face full of panic.

"Oh no, ma'am, this smell is weird!"

Haishe also quickly covered her mouth, but the smell still penetrated into their bodies through every pore.

They tried to get up and run away, but their bodies gradually became weak.

Haishe's eyes began to become blurry and she shook her body, trying hard to stay awake.

"This...what the hell is going on..."

Shuang'er was also staggering, her face was pale.

"Madam...I...I feel dizzy..."

Soon, the two could no longer hold on and slowly collapsed to the ground, falling into a coma. The room became dead silent.

After an unknown amount of time, Haishe slowly woke up. She felt her head was extremely dizzy and her eyelids felt as if they weighed a thousand pounds.

She opened her eyes with great effort, her eyes still a little confused, looking at the unfamiliar environment around her, and muttered: "Where...where is this?"

She struggled to sit up, and then she found Shuang'er still lying quietly beside her. She quickly crawled to Shuang'er's side, gently shaking her, her voice filled with anxiety and worry: "Shuang'er, Shuang'er, wake up quickly."

Shuang'er frowned, uttered a moan, and finally slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were full of fear and confusion.

"Ma'am, what's wrong with us?"

Haishe shook his head, his face solemn: "I don't know either. I just remember someone blowing air into the room from the window, and then we passed out."

As she spoke, she looked around warily.

Shuang'er's face was still pale. She held Haishe's hand tightly, her voice trembling: "Madam, this is terrible. Who brought us here?"

Haishe bit his lip and said after thinking for a moment: "No matter who it is, we must find a way to escape and can't just sit there and wait for death."

A determined light gradually ignited in her eyes, and Shuang'er nodded vigorously.

The two supported each other and began to explore this strange place carefully.

Shuang'er frowned, her face full of pain. She covered her body with her hands, her voice trembling slightly.

"Madam... I suddenly feel very uncomfortable, and my body aches... I... Was I ruined by that man?"

As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes, and his eyes were full of fear and helplessness.

When Haishe heard this, her heart tightened. She felt her body carefully and her face turned pale instantly.

"I... I have the same feeling... Shuang'er, your guess might... might be correct..."

Haishe's lips trembled and tears flowed uncontrollably from his eyes.

"How could this happen... How could this happen..." Shuang'er couldn't help crying out, her body trembling slightly.

Haishe bit her lip, her face full of grief and indignation. She hugged Shuang'er tightly and said with sobs: "It's all my fault... It's all my fault that I didn't protect you well..."

"Madam... this is not your fault..." Shuang'er sobbed, "We are so unlucky... to encounter such a thing..."

The two of them hugged each other tightly and burst into tears. Haishe's face was covered with tear marks and he looked sad and desperate.

"How could we suffer such humiliation..."

Shuang'er was also crying inconsolably.

"Madam...what should we do in the future..."

Their cries echoed in this silent space, filled with endless pain and sorrow.

Just as the master and servant were crying, suddenly there was a slight sound of footsteps. Haishe and Shuang'er stopped crying in fear and looked towards the direction of the sound with tearful eyes.

I saw several tall masked men slowly walking towards me.

They exude a chilling aura.

One of the masked men stood in front of them and said in a low and cold voice: "Stay here honestly and don't try to escape or do anything else, otherwise the consequences will be very serious and you can't afford it!" There was a fierce light flashing in his eyes.

Haishe's eyes widened in horror, his body unconsciously shrank back, and he said in a trembling voice: "You... who are you? Why did you bring us here?"

Shuang'er's face was also full of fear. She clutched the corner of Haishe's clothes tightly, and her teeth were chattering.

The masked man snorted coldly and did not answer Haishe's words. He just glared at them fiercely, then turned around and left with the other masked men.

Only Haishe and Shuang'er were left standing there, filled with fear and confusion, not knowing what terrible fate was waiting for them.

After the masked men left, Haishe and Shuang'er hugged each other tightly, their bodies still shaking uncontrollably.

Haishe's face was covered with tears, her eyes were filled with fear and confusion. She bit her lip and said to Shuang'er in a low voice, "Shuang'er, what should we do? These people look so fierce. Can we really escape?"

Shuang'er tried hard to calm herself down.

"Ma'am, no matter what, we can't just sit there and wait for death. We must find a way."

The two were silent for a while, and Haishe seemed to have thought of something, with a hint of determination in his eyes.

"Shuang'er, if they really want to harm us, I will not let them succeed even if I risk my life."

"Ma'am, don't say such things. We can definitely find a way. We can definitely do it."

Time passed by minute by minute, and every moment seemed particularly long to them.

Haishe looked in the direction the masked man left from time to time, his heart filled with anxiety and uneasiness.

Shuang'er racked her brains to think of a solution, but couldn't think of any good solution for a while. (End of this chapter)
