My host is cold and scumbag

Zhao Xinyun held He Chengwu and didn't dare to move at all, but the ground jade at Zhao Xinyun's heels was still winding forward. He Chengwu was wondering whether this thing came out for a stroll or to do something. The appearance of the bell was definitely not a coincidence. It was too much of a coincidence that the ground jade came out to work as soon as the bell rang.

At this moment, a sudden scream, sharp and shrill, like a cold wind piercing through the night, frightened everyone. The scream echoed in the narrow and deep cave, and every scream released fear and helplessness, making people feel cold.

The ground jade whooshed and was immediately retracted like a phantom. The tentacle-like vines made an empty sound in the air due to inertia. For some reason, He Chengwu suddenly remembered the tentacles sticking out from the densely packed cave entrances above the Longma Cave, and the hideous scene like an octopus.

He Chengwu was still thinking about the problem, when suddenly there was nothing in front of him. Zhao Xinyun took a few steps back and stood firmly not far away. The temperature in front of him dissipated, and the feeling of loss disrupted He Chengwu's thinking. Once the crisis was over, everyone fell to the ground. Yang Qiu collected the rope and asked He Chengwu: "What is that thing? Is it so scary?"

When in Mangshan, Yang Qiu was not there, and He Chengwu calmed down and said, "I don't know why, but I remembered the murals on the Longma Cave."

He looked at Shousheng: "Brother Shousheng, what do you think?"

Shousheng nodded: "That voice just now, was it the person we saw before?"

He Chengwu was also a little frightened: "It should be."

"So how do we get out now?"

He Chengwu picked up his backpack and said to everyone, "Follow that thing, be careful, see if you can catch up."

When He Chengwu passed by Zhao Xinyun, he just glanced at her. He felt like he was going to blush just by looking at her. He hurriedly took a few steps forward and then hurried on his way. The road became smoother the further he went in. It should be the trace of Di Yu often coming out for a stroll. After walking a few steps and unable to find Di Yu's movements, a fork appeared in front of him.

He Chengwu was a little confused, but the two caves were different. One cave had a strong wind, and the wind came out from the cave entrance. He Chengwu stood at the cave entrance, and his hair was blown into the air. The wind on his face was extremely dry, and there was a faint smell of sulfur.

The other hole was ordinary, except for its depth. He Chengwu realized that the other hole should lead to the depths. After thinking about it, he walked towards the wind outlet. After all, they didn't come here to play soy sauce.

But suddenly, another scream was heard. This voice was completely different from the previous shrill voice. It was obviously a man's voice. He Chengwu's raised footsteps paused in the air, and his eyes flashed with alertness. It was still impossible to tell exactly from which direction this man's scream came.

Everyone stopped moving at the same time and began to look around, looking for the source of the sound. Some shone flashlights around, while others pricked up their ears to listen carefully, but there was nothing unusual around except the occasional sound of wind and vague sounds in the distance.

But Zhao Xinyun suddenly spoke up, her voice calm: "I'm going to leave for a while."

This sentence was like a stone thrown into a calm lake. Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on her, with confusion written all over their faces. Zhao Xinyun did not explain too much, but just looked at He Chengwu, apparently waiting for He Chengwu's agreement.

Yang Qiu hugged Zhao Xinyun's arm and said, "Don't do it, sister. It's too dangerous for you to be alone."

He Chengwu also shook his head and refused: "No."

Zhao Xinyun looked at He Chengwu and smiled, "No, we'll see each other again soon."

He Chengwu looked at Zhao Xinyun's calm expression. The difficulty of rejecting her made him lower his head, but he still objected again: "No."

Zhao Xinyun sighed, looked at Yang Qiu who was hugging his arms, and said lightly: "If you go in the direction of the wind, we will meet again. I really have something to do now."

She pushed Yang Qiu's hand away, and patted the little girl's head in the face of Yang Qiu's worry. Yang Qiu seemed a little discouraged. It seemed that except He Chengwu and Yang Qiu, no one came to stop her. After all, He Chengwu's attitude did not seem to be firm enough.

The reasons for this unresolute attitude were, firstly, that he and Zhao Xinyu didn't seem to be very familiar with each other, and he didn't seem to have the status and capital to preach to her; and secondly, that Zhao Xinyu's aura was too strong, and he couldn't say some of his high-sounding words at all.

Finally, he was extremely conflicted. Seeing Zhao Xinyun was about to walk towards another cave entrance, He Chengwu couldn't help but grab her hand: "Are you sure we will meet again?"

Zhao Xinyun smiled and nodded. He Chengwu looked into Zhao Xinyun's eyes and finally had to slowly let go. Zhao Xinyun turned and left, stepping into the darkness without hesitation. He Chengwu saw the man being swallowed up in the deep and thick darkness, and then he remembered that Zhao Xinyun didn't have a flashlight.

He shouted: "Flashlight!!"

The echo lingered in the air, but there was no response. He Chengwu was extremely anxious. Yang Qiu hurriedly pulled He Chengwu to another place. She sighed in disappointment: "Don't think about it. What's the point of thinking about these things now? If you had fought for it, would you have been able to get to the point where you couldn't even say a nice word?"

He Chengwu started to feel embarrassed again. He had been walking along the road with a heavy heart. The honest and silent Yue Qiu couldn't help but tease him at this moment: "Speaking of which, Mr. He, are you really interested in this girl?"

He Chengwu's heart tightened...

So... so obvious...

In fact, it was not obvious. Many people just came to their senses at this time. Yang Qiu was a girl. He Chengwu could not think of a way to get close to the cold Zhao Xinyun, so he instigated Yang Qiu to go. Yang Qiu was sensitive and found some clues and laughed at He Chengwu many times. What could this group of rough guys find out all of a sudden? At best, they saw that the girl gave him a flower and He Chengwu shyly took it. Later, they got along with each other in a dull manner. If Yang Qiu had not said some strange words later, they would not have thought that she was having a relationship with a man and a woman.

Yue Qiu hesitated a little awkwardly: "Mr. He's vision is... quite high..."

Yang Qiu burst out laughing. He Chengwu was too embarrassed to say anything. He simply shook Yang Qiu off and walked forward quickly. Yue Qiu glanced at Yang Qiu awkwardly. Yang Qiu chuckled a few times: "It's okay, Uncle Qiu, don't pay attention to him. He is like this. He has the intention but not the courage."

After Yang Qiu finished speaking, he hurriedly caught up with He Chengwu. Yue Qiu's embarrassment was not alleviated by Yang Qiu's comfort. Instead, he smiled awkwardly at Shousheng twice.

Shousheng nodded: "What she said actually makes sense."

Brother Yueqiu suddenly felt even more embarrassed.
