Li Muchen watched Lin Ru close the door, feeling inexplicably expectant.

But I don’t know what he was expecting. In short, he was immersed in sweet joy.

However, after Lin Ru turned around, his face was solemn and he looked very worried. Li Muchen immediately became worried.

He wondered in his heart what had happened to Lin Ru that made her so serious and worried, but no matter what difficulties she encountered, he would do his best to help solve them.

"I have something to tell you. You need to control your expression and avoid being seen by others."

Lin Ru came to Li Muchen, helped him sit up, and whispered.

When Li Muchen heard this, his doubts grew even stronger. It seemed like this was a serious matter, and he didn't know if he could solve it.

He guessed in his mind and nodded in agreement, with a gentle smile on his face.

"correct."

Seeing Li Muchen sitting against the kang cabinet, Lin Ru considerately stuffed a pillow behind him. Fearing that he would feel uncomfortable, she turned around and hurriedly went to get a bowl of brown sugar eggs.

He was afraid that someone might suddenly come back and find something wrong, so he acted very carefully.

He handed the bowl to Li Muchen and continued speaking in a low voice.

"It's a little hot, drink it slowly. I went up the mountain today and found a strange place."

Li Muchen held the bowl and drank carefully. Just after taking a small sip, he choked. It was too sweet, even sweeter than eating brown sugar directly.

But he just paused for a moment, and continued to drink calmly, listening carefully to Lin Ru's words, wondering if she had discovered his secret base.

"You discovered it too. That place is amazing. I wanted to take you there, but I didn't have enough time."

When Lin Ru heard this, she felt amazed. It was true, but she didn't want to visit that kind of place. After going there once, she got goose bumps all over her body which still haven't gone away.

Thinking about it, Li Muchen actually likes to go to that kind of place. This hobby is quite strange. But since he discovered it, why didn’t he send anyone to check it out and even sealed the entrance of the cave? Don’t you think there is something wrong with the cave?

Lin Ru's mind is now full of question marks and confusion.

But then I thought, that place couldn’t be a place for state secret research, it must have been abandoned, so it was sealed off.

Thinking of this, Lin Ru relaxed completely. As long as there was no problem, she thought it was just a leftover from her daily life.

"You've been there, so I feel relieved. I thought there was something wrong with that place, so I came over to tell you."

Lin Ru spoke briskly, completely free of her previous anxiety and tension, and pulled a stool to sit down.

"I've been there several times and caught a lot of pheasants and rabbits. I'll take you there for a feast next time."

Seeing Lin Ru relax, Li Muchen was no longer worried.

In fact, when he first discovered that place, he was also shocked, but after checking around, he found nothing wrong. There are many magical things in nature, so he didn't worry too much.

I just go there out of habit when I go up the mountain to take a look and have a bite to eat so I don’t go hungry often.

"Oh, okay, don't you think that place is gloomy and scary if you don't go there? I feel scared when I go in."

Lin Ru was speechless. There were so many good places on the mountain, but why did he have to go to such a place to have a feast? She really didn't understand this habit.

Although she likes to eat, she really has no appetite in that kind of place and cannot enjoy it.

However, everyone has unique hobbies. Lin Ru doesn’t understand, but she respects them. After all, personal preferences are the most important.

"No, that place is lush and green, full of life, how can it be eerie and scary?"

Finally, he almost finished the bowl and Li Muchen breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at a large earthenware jar on the table, he swallowed with some difficulty, thinking that the rest could be given to Ye Jingyun for replenishment, after all, he had been very busy recently.

Li Muchen didn't understand Lin Ru's strange feeling. Could it be because the weather was too cold that she felt eerie and scary?

Next time he takes Lin Ru with him and makes the fire burn brighter, it definitely won’t be cold.

The more Lin Ru listened to Li Muchen's words, the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Were they both talking about the same place? Why were their feelings so different?

Is there something wrong with her body? No, she is normal. The problem can only be with someone else.

So is there something wrong with Li Muchen? I thought he was an honest and trustworthy soldier, but now the more I get to know him, the more I feel there is something wrong with him.

"Your feelings are really unique. That damn place is still lush and full of life, but it is obviously dark and chaotic."

"Your hobbies are even more unique. Who knows what strange things are behind that strange door in the cave, but you are so focused on roasting food there. You are so carefree."

Lin Ru expressed respect for his strange hobbies, but she really didn't understand them in her heart. She couldn't keep her mouth shut and blurted out what was in her mind.

After he finished speaking, Lin Ru realized that something was wrong and tried to make excuses awkwardly.

"Well, it's normal for you to have strange little habits. It was very rude of me to say that. I sincerely apologize."

She lowered her head and tugged at the corner of her clothes, not daring to look up at Li Muchen's expression.

Li Muchen's spoon stopped in mid-air, his face showing surprise and joy, without any sign of anger at all. Was it what he thought?

Lin Ruke was truly his benefactor. Not only did she save him, but she also made it possible for him to find the place they had been searching for.

I originally thought that his leg injury would delay the progress of the mission, but I didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise.

Regardless of whether it was true or not, he would thank her after his leg healed.

However, the most urgent task now is to determine whether that place is the research base that the organization is looking for.

"We may not be talking about the same place. Can you tell me in detail where you found it?"

Li Muchen stopped drinking the greasy sugar water and asked Lin Ru with a serious face.

Lin Ru was playing with clothes when she suddenly heard Li Muchen's words. She was a little surprised, but also relieved. It was good that he didn't have that weird habit, otherwise Lin Ru wouldn't know what to do with it in the future. She really didn't like going to weird places to eat.

Looking up, she saw that Li Muchen had a serious attitude, and she unconsciously put away her idle thoughts.

"It's halfway up the mountain, about one meter from the ground. The cave is sealed tightly with rocks. I entered it by accident."

When Lin Ru thought about it now, he still felt a little nauseous and his body felt hairy. He swallowed and continued.

"It looked like an office inside, with lots of tables, chairs, benches, and documents. It was a mess, and there was a heavy door at the back. I was afraid so I didn't go in deeper. That's all I know."

After saying that, Lin Ru breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Li Muchen hopefully, wanting to see if he knew anything about the inside story.
