"That still won't do. Miss, you are a lady from a noble family. You haven't even left the pavilion, how could you have shown your face outside?" Ziyi still held onto Min Xuanling tightly, adamantly refusing to let her climb over the wall.

"I'm a woman disguised as a man, who knows me? "Don't worry, I'll be back before nightfall. If you continue to drag me along, and if someone sees you later, you'll really have to go to the old master to receive your punishment." Seeing that Ziyi had no intention of letting go, Min Xuanling wanted to frighten her with her words. She didn't expect that this move would be so useful. Hearing Min Xuanling's words, Ziyi felt that it made sense and froze in place.

Taking advantage of this opening, Min Xuanling immediately climbed up the high wall with her hands and legs, escaping Ziyi's control. Min Xuanling turned around and looked at Ziyi, who was still panicking. She waved her hand and said, "Go back first, I'll be fine. I'll definitely be back before dinner."

Ziyi wanted to say something, but Min Xuanling had already disappeared from her sight. Lowering her head and sighing, Ziyi said worriedly, "Why has Miss's personality changed so much after she recovered from her illness? I wonder if Miss will encounter any danger when she goes out alone this time. "

With this uneasy mood, Ziyi returned to the Plum Garden, hoping that Min Xuanling would return soon.

On the other side of the street, Min Xuanling was already attracted by the shops of various sizes. It was said that it was better to see than to hear. Even though he had seen the streets of ancient times in TV dramas, it was still not true. Now that she was in ancient times, Min Xuanling felt like she was enjoying the sights.

"Wow, the former capital is indeed bustling. Although these small items are not worth much right now, if I can bring some back, they would become antiques. Whether it's as a family heirloom or selling them to earn a fortune, it's all very good. " While Min Xuanling was daydreaming about selling her antiques and getting rich, she was also staring at all kinds of small things and food sold on the street.

Thinking that she hadn't eaten breakfast yet, Min Xuanling walked into a noodle restaurant that seemed to be doing pretty well.

"Boss, give me a bowl of noodles." Min Xuanling casually found a seat and sat down, then turned around and said to the boss of the opposite building.

"Young master, here's your face." Not long later, the boss brought the steaming hot noodles to Min Xuanling.

Min Xuanling couldn't wait and took a bite from her chopsticks. She felt that this bowl of noodles was much more delicious than what she had eaten in Min Mansion. Because she wasn't favored by the family, Plum Garden's food and clothing couldn't be compared to the other courtyards. Coupled with the fact that she had just recovered from a severe illness, Min Xuanling had been eating lightly for the past few days.

Just as they were eating happily, a pair of good friends sat down at the table beside Min Xuanling. The two of them ordered two bowls of noodles before they started chatting.

"Sigh, have you heard? Last night at Wu Heng Mountain, a phenomenon suddenly descended from the sky. Many people said that either immortals came here or some strange treasures appeared."

"This matter has stirred up such a huge commotion that I naturally heard about it. Rumor has it that the sky over at the Wu Hengshan mountain last night was completely red, and it wasn't until the fifth fragment of the night that everything gradually returned to normal."

"That's right, you said fantasy is not fantasy. In the early morning, Third Prince and the Fourth Prince led their men down to investigate. "

"There's going to be a good show this time. These two princes normally don't get along with each other, and the Emperor hasn't even set up a crown prince yet. If anyone is able to find a treasure this time, it would be a great merit."

Min Xuanling had been paying attention to their conversation ever since she heard of the strange phenomenon and thought to herself, This is truly an easy place to look for broken iron shoes. He had just come out and already received such important news. He must go and take a look at this Wu Hengshan.

After paying the bill and asking the boss for the location of Wu Hengshan, Min Xuanling walked out of the noodle house with cool steps.

Min Xuanling was afraid that the two princes would beat her to it, so she decided to take the last trip in vain. Thus, she simply called for a carriage and had the coachman ride it quickly to the foot of the mountain.

After getting off the car, Min Xuanling started to carefully size up this Wuheng Mountain, but no matter how she looked at it, it was just an ordinary mountain, and there wasn't anything special about it. However, since they were already here, there was no reason not to go and take a look.

Min Xuanling climbed to the halfway point in a short while. After finding a rock to sit on, Min Xuanling took a few deep breaths and thought, "I didn't find anything when I climbed up the mountain. Did I come late?"

After resting for a while, Min Xuanling stood up again in dissatisfaction. She looked at the mountain road in front of her, gritted her teeth, and started climbing up again.

Five Hengshan could be said to be a barren mountain. Normally, no one would come here and since no one had come, no one would cultivate the stone steps. Although the mountain was not high, Min Xuanling would need to use the branches to climb some of the steeper slopes. For Min Xuanling, who hadn't practiced for a long time, the journey up to this point still consumed a lot of her energy. The closer they got to the top, the steeper the mountain road became. Min Xuanling had to use both hands and feet to climb up the mountain.

"What kind of sin is this? Why did I have to face such a low probability of winning the lottery?" Min Xuanling complained as she crawled. Her clothes had long ago been dirty and her hands were in excruciating pain. Right now, she was filled with grievance as she lamented her miserable life. However, when she thought of how she could go back to the modern era, she clenched her teeth and struggled to climb upwards step by step.

When she was about to reach the top of the mountain, Min Xuanling accidentally stepped on a piece of soft soil. Her feet slipped, and with a scream, she tumbled down the mountain path.

"Ah!" After crashing into a tree, Min Xuanling finally stopped. Rubbing her waist, Min Xuanling felt like there were stars in her eyes. She struggled to get up but found that her feet had twisted.

He held onto the tree and stood up slowly, looking down dejectedly at the mountain peak that was originally right in front of his eyes. It seemed like he would not be able to climb it today. Min Xuanling's right leg couldn't even move right now. Forget going up the mountain, she couldn't even walk down the mountain.

Leaning against the tree to rest, Min Xuanling picked up a tree branch to support her. She silently walked down the mountain. It seemed that she could only come back to check on her next time.

Due to her injured feet, Min Xuanling walked especially slowly. She had given up on going to the top of the mountain to see what was going on. Now, Min Xuanling felt much more relaxed and would occasionally take a look at the scenery of the mountain.

He didn't take a closer look when he went up the mountain, but now he found that the original Wuheng Mountain scenery was also quite interesting. Halfway up the mountain, Min Xuanling noticed that the sky had suddenly darkened. She felt that it was going to rain soon, so she quickened her pace. After they walked for a distance, it started raining heavily. Min Xuanling was drenched in the rain after a while.

The mud was particularly slippery from the rain. Min Xuanling had to think of a place to hide from the rain after nearly falling several times. Min Xuanling looked around and suddenly realized that there seemed to be a cave on her right side. It was blocked by trees, so it was impossible to find it without looking carefully.
