The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 034
Chapter 034 Trapped Valley
Li Qing and Liu Ke’er walked into the mist. After walking for an unknown amount of time, the fog gradually faded, and the light in front of his eyes gradually brightened, as if he was about to leave.
When the two of them completely walked out of the fog, they looked forward and couldn’t help but be stunned, “Eh, why does this scenery feel a little familiar?”
“Isn’t this the Hundred Flowers Valley? What’s going on? Why are you back here?” When they reacted, they were shocked.
It turned out that they had returned to Hundred Flowers Valley.
“Impossible, I was clearly walking out.” Li Qing found it hard to believe. He guessed in his heart, “Could it be that he took the wrong path in the fog and walked back in a circle?”
It’s not impossible. After all, he basically couldn’t see anything clearly in the fog. Perhaps he really took a detour, circled around, and came back without knowing.
“Try again.”
The two of them had no choice but to turn around and walk into the fog. After walking for a long time, he walked out of the fog. He looked forward and saw the Hundred Flowers Valley in front of him.
This time, Li Qing felt that something was wrong. It was no coincidence that he walked back twice.
“Could it be that there’s something wrong with the fog? Try it again and I won’t believe it.”
Thus, Li Qing took Liu Ke’er for a walk again. The result was the same, and they returned to Hundred Flowers Valley.
This was the case three times in a row. This time, he could finally confirm that there must be something wrong with the fog. It would mislead people and make them unknowingly walk back. This was very similar to the legendary ghost wall. No matter how one walked, they couldn’t get out of a place. They clearly felt that they were walking in a straight line, but in reality, they might be walking in circles.
“This layer of fog should be a formation. No wonder it looks so familiar.” When he first came in, he was a little suspicious, because this layer of fog was really very strange, too thick, very similar to a grand formation. Now, it seemed like this was indeed the case.
“Then what should we do now?” Liu Ke’er asked. She felt conflicted in her heart. She felt very happy to stay here, but if she was trapped here for the rest of her life, she would definitely not be able to get out.
“Let me think.” Li Qing was thinking hard about how to do it. At present, what was certain was that this fog formation would mislead people, causing them to unknowingly take a detour and keep circling around. If he could make sure that he was walking in a straight line, wouldn’t he be able to walk out?
Li Qing looked at the valley and his eyes suddenly lit up. He said, “I’ve thought of a way.” As she spoke, she pulled Liu Ke’er’s hand and walked towards the stream.
“Our vision will be deceived,” he said as we walked. “But this creek is not a lie, is it? As long as we keep walking along this creek, we will be able to get out.”
Liu Ke’er came to her senses and said, “Good idea, there shouldn’t be any problem this time.”
So they began to walk along the stream and into the fog. After a period of time, they finally walked out of the fog. Looking forward, they were shocked, “Why is it Hundred Flowers Valley again?”
“Impossible. It’s impossible to take a detour along the stream, right? Why can’t we get out?” Li Qing was puzzled.
“Could it be an illusion?” Liu Ke’er said from the side.
“That’s right! It must be an illusion.” Li Qing suddenly realized, “If it really is an illusion, then it will be troublesome.” They all knew nothing about illusions, so it would be very difficult for them to get out.
“Try it a few more times.” He didn’t give up.
Thus, for the next half a day, they were all doing all sorts of attempts, but all of them were useless, unable to get out at all.
In the end, they could only give up.
“I’m trapped now. I can’t even think of a way out.” They sat in the bushes and looked at the beautiful scenery in Hundred Flowers Valley, feeling a little depressed. If they were in a bad mood, these beautiful sceneries would not be so beautiful in their eyes.
“It’s really strange. This valley is clearly empty. How could there be an array formation? Could it be formed naturally?” Li Qing was puzzled.
“Don’t think about it. Forget it if you can’t get out.” Liu Ke’er leaned her head against his shoulder, narrowed her eyes and said softly, “At least we’re still together, aren’t we? It’s not too bad to live together in this beautiful Hundred Flowers Valley.”
Seeing Liu Ke’er’s calm expression, Li Qing’s heart softened and said, “That’s the only way. Let’s wait until we reach the Xiantian realm and see if we can walk out.”
“Yes.” She murmured softly, a little lazy, her voice drifting in the wind.
…
So they settled down in the valley. Although they were trapped here, after living here for a period of time, they really liked this kind of life.
Here they had the happiest time of their lives.
Although their lives were somewhat dull, the most important person in their hearts was right beside them, so they wouldn’t find it boring.
As the saying goes, the two of them had feelings for each other for a long time. Now that they were together every day, the relationship between them was naturally closer and deeper. It was as if they were glued together. They were only one step away from the last step, and it was only natural for them to succeed.
Although they are not husband and wife, they are better than husband and wife.
The two of them were so close that they were just one step away from doing anything. Li Qing felt a little itchy and wanted to do something indescribable with Liu Ke’er. However, he still decided to let nature take its course and let all of this happen naturally, because this day would not be far off.
During this time, they built a small wooden house. Around the valley grew large areas of trees and bamboo forests. The raw materials for building a house were inexhaustible and could be cut down directly.
However, building a house could be considered a technical task. It was not an easy task. Neither of them had ever built a house before, so they simply wouldn’t do it. No matter how strong they were, they wouldn’t be able to do it. It took them a long time to research and explore before they could construct the prototype of the house, and its appearance was extremely ugly.
Although they weren’t well-built, they could at least block the wind and rain. Flip it over in the future.
Liu Ke’er looked at the newly-built, very ugly house, but she was very happy. She cheered happily and said, “Li Qing, we finally have a home…”
“Home! Yes, this is a home” Li Qing couldn’t help but smile as he looked at the tattered semi-finished product. The family evoked the deepest memories in his heart. He used to have a family, but it was already broken. I wonder if the small courtyard at the foot of Purple Cloud Mountain is still there.
Now, he finally had a new home. Although it looked very ugly, it was the crystallization of their efforts during this period of time. How could they dislike it?
Time passed quickly. Three months later.
After a long time’s effort, the room had become very good-looking, very sturdy, spacious and bright, simple and elegant. There were vines coiled around the roof and green ribbons hanging down.
There was a fence in front of the door and it formed a small courtyard. There were some vegetables and flowers and grass planted in the courtyard. It looked like a small farmyard.
Liu Ke’er had spent a lot of effort and effort on this courtyard. She had even become less diligent in cultivating in order to beautify it. Every day, he had to fix it up in the yard, grow plants and vegetables, decorate the house, and make it beautiful.
Fortunately, they had spatial rings, and they had everything inside. There was no need to worry about it, so they could use it to their heart’s content.
…
“Li Qing, come in for dinner.” Liu Ke’er brought up the food. She wore a scarf and her hair was pulled up. She looked gentle and virtuous. In the past three months, she had learned how to cook, and her cooking skills were not bad. After all, they were tired of eating barbecue meat for such a long time. Liu Ke’er was idle anyway, so she didn’t want to cultivate, so she decided to learn how to cook.
“Oh, alright.” Looking at her busy figure, Li Qing’s eyes couldn’t help but feel a little wet. It has been a long time since he felt the warmth of home since his mother died. This feels good.
“Perhaps it would be good if I could live a normal life like this.”
His heart suddenly became tranquil and serene, just like this quiet valley, far away from the crowd.
