Chapter 419: Chapter 209: Desolate Snow on the Mountain! Joyful Arrival in the City, Father! (Seeking Subscription)_3

The wild deer nearby gathered more and more, and after losing Yuchi’s suppression, it was unknown which deer took the lead, but they actually started jumping into the huge pit.

Once there was one, there would be a second.

In the end, it was as if the countless deer across the mountains sensed something, and went mad, their eyes becoming bloodshot as they leaped into the pit. There were other wild animals next to them, some wild goats, and even wolves, tigers, and leopards, all came.

One after another, until they completely filled the entire pit, and then stopped, the animals seemed to be fearful of something, either pushing the dirt on the ground with their hooves or using their heads to move the snow on the ground.

They were helping to cover it up.

The actual effect was remarkable. Just as Song Yinghan and Yuchi returned to Canglan City, this area was already covered. A heavy snowfall came down, and if one didn’t know in advance that something strange was happening here, they wouldn’t know that so many corpses were buried in the place.

As for those animals that helped cover the corpses, they all died, and a terrible desolation emitted from inside and outside the whole mountain.

...

In Canglan City, Yuchi was drinking tea.

The tea in front of him was very mild; he was drinking tea while looking at the book in his hand, his face full of a kind of leisurely smile.

And just as he was calmly drinking his tea, the door was abruptly pushed open. Song Yinghan rushed in, and as soon as she saw Yuchi sipping tea at a leisurely pace, even before Yuchi could speak, her panicked voice already came.

”Yuchi! Something terrible has happened, something terrible has happened.” Song Yinghan was extremely anxious, pacing around Yuchi, clutching her hands tightly together, lacking her usual calmness.

”What’s wrong?” Yuchi asked in confusion.

He flipped a teacup, poured some warm tea into it, and went to Song Yinghan’s side, first helping her remove her mask. When he saw the tear stains on the woman’s face, his heart tightened.

He brushed the snow off her shoulders, helped her sit on a round stool, and handed the teacup over.

”Drink some tea, and tell me slowly, what happened?” Yuchi asked, pretending not to know.

He and Song Yinghan had discussed beforehand that if Yuchi was free over the next few days, he should visit the Ziyue Star Pavilion. She had already contacted the people of the Ziyue Star Pavilion to give Yuchi a room, and Yuchi naturally agreed.

So he returned to Canglan City a step earlier and came directly to the Ziyue Star Pavilion, having already prepared tea, just waiting for Song Yinghan to return.

”It’s like this!”

Song Yinghan had no mood to drink tea at all. Sitting beside Yuchi, she tightly grasped Yuchi’s hand, displaying a look of terror, and hastily said: ”It’s like this, wasn’t I previously following the Compass to find the missing girl?”

”I went there, and after about three hours, I arrived at a small mountain, completely covered by snow. I couldn’t see anything unusual from the outside, it was really only because I knew in advance that something might be wrong there, after all, the last place where the girl disappeared was there.”

”I immediately started investigating on the spot, using some magic to start digging into the ground. Layer by layer, I dug down, and I discovered that it was not an ordinary mountain. It concealed many bones, many, many, many bones. I kept digging, and more and more appeared...”

”Do you know? Many of the bones were so decomposed beyond recognition, they were entwined together in various tragic forms...”

While speaking, her burning hot tears fell, ultimately leading her to sobbing, her entire being crying pear blossom with rain, collapsing in Yuchi’s embrace, shivering and trembling continuously.

Yuchi’s face remained calm, a faint smile on his lips, as he held the woman in his arms, his eyes serenely gazing at the door.

This was truly the first time he had seen this side of Song Yinghan. Earlier, in the mountain cluster, he thought she was quite calm, just observing from a distance, thinking she was indeed worthy of someone from the Astrology Tower, still able to remain calm under such circumstances.

But looking at it now, it seems it was merely a case of ’adrenaline surge,’ forcibly suppressing the fear, and really, once she left such a place, her emotions gradually settled... no joke, this is a true statement.

”An adult’s breakdown often happens in an instant.”

”Once it’s mentioned, one breaks down.”

Gently patting the back of the woman in his arms, Yuchi could feel through her thick clothing her back soaked with sweat, there was no hint of joking, genuinely beginning to think about the specifics of the situation.

Ling Huzhong probably didn’t see this happening. He, at most, just followed the Compass to this place, at that time he also didn’t die, and fundamentally couldn’t verify whether this Compass was effective, because it seemingly didn’t appear very reliable.

That can be understood; he and Song Yinghan were so convinced this place was dangerous because Ling Huzhong had been murdered. But Ling Huzhong didn’t know, he had most likely just visited this place once, looking around casually and then, failing to find anyone’s whereabouts, returned to Canglan City.
