System [I am in a horror dungeon]

Chu Lingxian and Su Liyue chatted for a while and then returned to the house.

Lu Nanyin poked her head out of the alchemy room, watched the two men leave, and then sneaked out of the room.

If he thought about it carefully, it wouldn't make sense. This was the bamboo house that his master and he built. Why should he hide it secretly? Thinking of this, he became proud and walked around the yard with his chest held high.

Chu Lingxian opened the door, looked at her, listened to her inner words, and frowned.

"Lu Nanyin."

"Ah, what's the matter?" Lu Nanyin turned around and looked at her, her mind thinking about what happened just now, her face slightly red.

Chu Lingxian held the medicine in his hand and said, "Help me, I can't reach the wound at the back."

Lu Nanyin nodded stupidly, "Oh, okay."

Lu Nanyin followed her into the room, looked at the medicine bottle on the table, took it in her hand, turned around, and saw Chu Lingxian slowly taking off his clothes, revealing his back, and then slowly untying the bandages on his body.

Lu Nanyin looked at her back, her heart pounding. Chu Lingxian turned to look at her, "Lu Nanyin."

"I'm here."

Chu Lingxian was lying on the bed. Lu Nanyin slowly walked up to him and poured the powder in the bottle onto the wound.

Time passed slowly and the house became quiet. The only sounds could be heard were the two people's breathing and a few birds chirping outside.

"All right."

Lu Nanyin put the medicine bottle away and put it aside, then took a new bandage and bandaged her.

Lu Nanyin's face was a little red, and Chu Lingxian appeared calm on the surface, but was a little panicked on the inside.

In the past, she had always applied the medicine and bandaged the wound herself. There was no time to change the bandages carefully like now. She would just find a cave in the wild, apply the medicine haphazardly, and just wrap it up carelessly, just to survive first and then worry about other things.

After putting on his clothes, Chu Lingxian was still thinking about these things. His face did not look very good, his brows were furrowed, and he was full of thoughts.

"Your injury is much better now. When do you plan to leave?"

Chu Lingxian thought for a moment and said, "Maybe in two days. I'll make some preparations in the next two days."

"Okay. My uncle has been there before and has a note. I'll go look for it and make preparations."

"okay."

Lu Nanyin went to the study and searched through the bookshelves. Finally, she found the notebook among a pile of travel notes.

The four of them sat around the table, studying the records in the notebook.

Changxi Mountain is covered with snow all year round, so it is not easy to go up the mountain, let alone find medicinal herbs on the mountain. Moreover, precious medicinal herbs like Huayue Grass must be guarded by beasts. In such an environment, it is extremely difficult to defeat the guardian beasts and get the herbs, so you must be fully prepared.

Lu Xiaozhuo's notes said that the guardian beasts around the Huayue Grass might be the Moon Rhino or the Snow Ape, both of which are difficult to deal with.

Moreover, the best time to pick Huayue grass is at midnight. At that time, the moon is at its zenith and the medicinal effects of Huayue grass are stimulated by the moonlight. If it is picked at this time and used as medicine, its medicinal effects will be maximized.

"Well, we need to prepare some herbs that can disrupt the Moon Rhinoceros or Snow Ape's sense of smell, so that they can't locate us. Secondly, we need weapons that can pierce their skin. Ordinary ones are useless to them."

Chu Lingxian’s words made sense, and everyone agreed. Over the next two days, everyone was making preparations.

On the day of departure, several people had a small jade token hung around their necks that allowed them to use magic to transform their appearances into other appearances.

The few of them had lunch in the town at the foot of the mountain and saw a wanted poster at the city gate. It was drafted by the Liu family. In addition to their youngest daughter, they were also looking for the three people who had previously treated Liu Yuanqi.

Chu Lingxian looked at Lu Nanyin and asked with a smile: "What do you think when you see this?"

"How can I feel? The people in their family are not smart. She doesn't want to get married, but they insist on sending her to someone else. It's like they are crazy."

Chu Lingxian looked around. Fortunately, not many people were paying attention to this place. Otherwise, if those people noticed what she said, it would not be easy to get out.

Lu Nanyin also knew her concerns, so she shut her mouth and was thankful that her voice was not loud when she spoke just now, so no one noticed.

Several people left the town and headed southeast.

Along the way, they witnessed the vast grassland, saw the broad river, and the hills connected to one another. When they came to a small town at the foot of Changxi Mountain, they found that there was no one here at all.

Lu Nanyin held the map and looked at the snow-capped mountains in front of her. "I'm not mistaken. The one in front is Changxi Mountain. But there shouldn't be no one here. There are many medicinal herbs on Changxi Mountain. How is it possible that no one comes here?"

Several people were a little confused and led their horses into the town. The shops on the street were all abandoned and looked dilapidated.

A few people found an inn that didn't leak, pushed open the door, and the room was full of dust.

"Is anyone there?" Lu Nanyin's voice echoed in the room. She shouted a few times, but no one came out.

"Just clean up the place and rest here for one night. We will go up the mountain tomorrow, so we need to rest well."

After they cleaned up the house, Chu Lingxian went to the kitchen and took a look. There was still some wood, which was not damp and could be used.

It's very strange that the kitchen doesn't have as much dust as the inn lobby. It looks like new, and there are no signs of magical protection, which means that someone has used it not long ago. But now no one can be seen, which can only mean that they are hiding somewhere else.

Lu Nanyin and Chu Lingxian worked together in the kitchen to cook some dishes. They didn’t expect to find such fresh dishes and some bacon here.

After Lu Nanyin brought out the dishes, Chu Lingxian put two pearls on the plate and then came out with the cup.

A few people ate and drank, and discussed the specific itinerary for tomorrow.

After eating, Chu Lingxian and Lu Nanyin took the plates and cups back to the kitchen. Chu Lingxian saw that the two pearls he had placed there before were gone. The corners of his mouth curled up, revealing an imperceptible smile. It was as expected.

After cleaning up the kitchen, the two went upstairs, and Su Liyue and Xia Xiaoxiao also cleaned up two rooms.

After extinguishing the candles, the four of them went upstairs.

Lu Nanyin was lying on the bed, looking at Chu Lingxian thoughtfully, and said her own thoughts: "Do you think those people would hide underground? There are a lot of bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen cabinet, and the fresh vegetables and bacon are enough to support fifteen people for three months. If there are still people who can fast, there will be more people. And the cellar in the yard is clean all around, there must be a lot of people."

Chu Lingxian smiled and lay down next to Lu Nanyin, but she did not extinguish the candle. She just closed her eyes and chatted softly with Lu Nanyin.

As for why they ended up lying together, the story began at an inn on the road.
