For safety reasons, Fu Cang moved all the stones in the cave to the entrance.

Yuelu and Mo Xiaonian also entered the cave. Knowing that there was a cliff ahead, Yuelu felt very disappointed.

"It seems that we have no chance of getting out of here. Let's settle down here first. After daybreak, Fu Cang, you take people back to the cave we were in before to take a look. I think we should go back there after the fire is out."

"Okay, let's rest for a while and then go back. I think the fire in the cave will be out by now."

The cave was too dirty, with dust all over the ground. Moreover, on such a steep cliff, they couldn't go out to collect firewood and light a fire to keep warm. These people could only lean against each other and sit on the ground to take a nap.

In order to give people in the tribe a sense of security, Fu Cang did not turn off the flashlight.

Sure enough, this beam of light brought infinite sense of security to the people in the tribe.

Fu Cang knew that Mo Xiaonian loved cleanliness, so he found the cleanest place, cleaned it, took off his leather vest and spread it on the ground, then let Mo Xiaonian sit on it.

"Don't do that. You'll be cold if you take off your leather vest. I brought a lot of things with me, including things that can be spread on the ground."

Mo Xiaonian took out a piece of leather, and Fu Cang put the leather vest back on.

"Sleep for a while, I'll be leaving soon."

"Ah."

Mo Xiaonian hugged Fu Cang's waist, buried her head in his chest, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Fu Cang also closed his eyes for a while and felt that his strength had almost recovered. He stood up and walked back with Sickle Hu Mu and Xiong Ben to check whether the cave they were in was destroyed by the fire.

As soon as Fu Cang took away the light source, the cave immediately became pitch dark.

Mo Xiaonian had already moved close to Yue Lu and was hugging her arms tightly.

Yuelu patted her shoulder.

"Good boy, are you scared by what happened just now?"

"It's okay, I'm not too scared."

"You saved us once again. Tell me, kid, why is it you who always finds danger?"

Mo Xiaonian also found it quite strange. So many coincidences coming together always gave people an unusual feeling.

"I'm lucky. Grandma, I know you're tired too. Hurry up and close your eyes and have a good sleep. If you don't fall asleep, it will be dawn soon."

"You sleep, grandma will watch you. Grandma is getting old, and she sleeps less and less. You are not like me, who is now in the prime of your life."

Mo Xiaonian was indeed extremely sleepy. She leaned against Yuelu, wrapped herself tightly in clothes, and actually fell asleep again.

It was cold inside the cave, and Yue Lu didn't dare let Mo Xiaonian sleep too long. She waited until it was dawn outside and then woke Mo Xiaonian up.

"Are you cold? Don't fall asleep yet, wake up and be alert!"

Mo Xiaonian did feel a little cold when she slept.

She had always lived in the car before, and had Fu Cang's small heater by her side when she slept, so she had never realized how cold the nights in the mountains were. But now she realized it.

She wrapped her clothes tightly and stood up. She felt dizzy, so she simply walked to a place not far from the cave entrance and stretched her neck to look outside.

Okay, I feel refreshed.

The wind was howling outside the cave, and there was an abyss below that was bottomless. It was as scary as it could be.

Yuelu came over and pulled her arm to move her away from the cave.

"You better be careful. By the way, let me ask you, what was that thing Fu Cang was holding when he led us here? Why was it brighter than the moon?"

"Oh, that's something from our Dahuan Kingdom, it's called a flashlight, not everyone in Dahuan Kingdom has it, but it's a rare treasure. I didn't take it out before because I was afraid of losing it again."

"It does look like a rare treasure. I've heard that the royal family of Dahuan State has a treasure called Night Pearl, which can glow at night. Is this it?"

"That's true, but it's not quite the same. This is more precious than the Night Pearl, so grandma, you have to keep it a secret for us. Don't let others covet our treasure."

Yuelu nodded vigorously.

"Of course. I have to protect this good thing for you. Look how useful it is. If we didn't have this thing, there would be no way for so many of us to walk from that long cave to here..."

A beam of dazzling light shone out from the cave. Mo Xiaonian saw that it was Fu Cang who came back, and pulled Yue Lu to the entrance of the cave.

Sure enough, a moment later, Fu Cang and the others came out with a sickle.

Fu Cang looked at Mo Xiaonian's pale face from the cold, took off his leather vest and put it on her, then said to Yue Lu: "Grand Elder, we can go back to the cave. The fire is only burning at the entrance of the cave. After burning the cave door, it will go out by itself. Our things are still there, but they are blackened by the smoke. The rest can be used without delay."

Yuelu breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good to be able to go back. This cave is too cold, and there is no way to the outside world. We can't make a fire to cook. It's really inconvenient to live here. But do you know who is so vicious that he wants to suffocate more than 300 of us to death in the cave? If this person is not caught, I'm afraid we will still have trouble in the future."

"Brother Hu Mu and I both suspect that it was Hu Liang who did it. He hates us to the core now, and I'm afraid we will never stop fighting! After we move back, Brother Hu and I will do our best to track down Hu Liang and get rid of this scum, so that he won't continue to harm us!"

When the people in the tribe heard that they could return to the cave they had been in before, they were very happy. They cheered themselves up and followed Fu Cang back.

The cave, which had been in good condition before, was now completely blackened by smoke. The things they did not take away were also blackened by smoke, and there was a strong smell of burning.

But it's better to be blackened than to have nothing, especially for Mo Xiaonian, as her and Fu Cang's well-sealed home is still there.

Mo Xiaonian walked to the entrance of the cave.

The previous wooden door had been burned down. Now Mo Xiaonian was extremely grateful that they had left a large area at the door empty for easy entry and exit. Because of this, the fire did not spread into the cave, but only stopped after burning the flammable materials piled at the door and the wooden door.

But they were right to leave here in the first place. Even if the fire had not burned in, the thick smoke produced by the fire would have been enough to suffocate all of them to death.
