The Daily Life of a Lazy Author Transmigrating into a Book and Doing Nothing
Chapter 37 Nighttime Investigation of the Secret Cave
"Senior sister, senior sister, wake up..."
After being shaken awake, the first thing Yunmeng saw was Yu Xianxian's anxious face. She hadn't even put on her outer robe yet, clearly having rushed out of bed.
"What's wrong with me?"
Yunmeng sat up, clutching her head. She was lying on a makeshift bed made of stools, and her hands were covered in blood.
"I'm injured?"
"Yes, you just said that after your father committed suicide, he started bleeding from all seven orifices and fell from mid-air, which startled me."
"Bleeding from all seven orifices?"
Yunmeng understood; she had probably become too absorbed in her memories and had inadvertently gone astray.
"I'm sorry, senior sister, I wanted to move you to the bed, but I can't quite manage it."
Yu Xianxian admitted that she was definitely lacking in exercise. She couldn't even lift Yunmeng, who looked frail, and could only use a stool to cover her up. She was indeed too weak.
"No problem."
Yunmeng lifted the blanket that Yu Xianxian had covered her with and began to meditate and regulate her breathing. Of course, this time Yu Xianxian didn't dare to speak, and she probably wouldn't dare to speak to Yunmeng while she was meditating in the future.
Waaah, if she had known the consequences would be this serious, she would have gone to sleep quietly instead of disturbing Yunmeng's cultivation.
So the rest of the day was spent in blissful moments of one meditating and the other secretly reading the script.
……
When midnight arrived, after waiting for Yunmeng for half a day, Yu Xianxian finally couldn't bear it any longer and crawled back into her warm bed.
Before going to sleep, she didn't forget to whisper "Goodnight, senior sister" amidst a flurry of yawns.
Before long, Yu Xianxian's steady breathing could be heard from under the covers; she was clearly asleep.
In the darkness, Yunmeng, who had been meditating with her eyes closed, opened them. She walked to the bedside, looked at Yu Xianxian sleeping peacefully on the bed, sighed, and then quietly left the room.
Yes, Yunmeng planned to explore the secret cave at night, and in order not to implicate Yu Xianxian, she deliberately waited until Yu Xianxian was asleep before taking action.
She never imagined that Yu Xianxian, who should have been asleep, would open her eyes less than a quarter of an hour after she left.
Yu Xianxian, who really didn't want to get up but had to work overtime, sat up on the bed and sighed. Sigh, she originally just wanted to live a carefree life on Lingyao Peak, but why is life getting more and more tiring? She even has to work overtime all night.
That's right, Yu Xianxian already knew about Yunmeng's plan, and this was naturally thanks to our all-powerful script that reminded her.
In fact, the first line of the script that Yu Xianxian opened was: "This time, Yunmeng has finally decided to leave Yu Xianxian behind and go solo. Tonight, as soon as Yu Xianxian falls asleep, Yunmeng will sneak into the secret cave. But this is going to be a dangerous situation."
When Yu Xianxian saw this passage, her first reaction wasn't that Yunmeng was in danger, but rather, "Oh, this damn script is surprisingly not cursing her."
This has only happened once in the past seven years, and it was shortly before I came down the mountain.
Yu Xianxian still remembers what the script said at the time: "Finally, our Ling Yaofeng is leading our beloved Yunmeng down the mountain. But my all-powerful script has calculated that this trip down the mountain is likely to be fraught with danger. But if Yu Xianxian goes along, maybe with the help of this omnipotent script, we can turn things around."
Well, although the meaning behind those words has been fully explained, Yu Xianxian is really not going to cause trouble for herself because of a single sentence in the dog script.
If Yu Xianxian had spent seven years with Yunmeng and received so much care from her, and felt that turning a blind eye would be too much of a burden on her conscience, then Yu Xianxian might really have adopted the attitude of "it's none of my business, so I don't care."
Unfortunately, she can't.
Moreover, it is truly heartbreaking to watch such a beautiful older sister pass away so tragically.
Knowing that Ling Yao would be accompanying her, Yu Xianxian thought nothing serious would happen. However, Ling Yao left on the second day after they arrived. At that moment, she knew that things were not simple.
Sure enough, they hadn't gone far when they ran into a big problem, and the two of them were directly drawn into the center of the incident.
Crucially, Yunmeng's state of mind was also disrupted for some reason, shattering Yu Xianxian's beautiful wish to wait for Ling Yao to return and then "swish" everything away. The miserable "working girl" Yu Xianxian could only crawl out of her warm bed in the middle of the night, hastily put on some clothes, and then head towards the rockery in the backyard.
Under the moonlight, Yunmeng's figure moved like a ghost across the rooftops, while Yu Xianxian, under the eaves, sneaked away from the night watchmen like a furtive thief.
When Yu Xianxian finally arrived at the artificial hill, Yunmeng had already broken the magic array at the cave entrance. Looking at the dark cave, Yu Xianxian took out a candle she had taken from the room, lit it with a match, and went inside.
Unlike at noon, this time, as soon as Yu Xianxian entered the cave, a strong smell of blood wafted through the air. The moment she smelled it, Yu Xianxian felt as if all her senses had been lost, and only one word remained in her mind: disgust.
If Yu Xianxian had known the stench of blood would be so strong this time, she would have easily persuaded Yunmeng to go through that iron gate at noon to find out, saving Yunmeng from having to get out of bed in the middle of the night.
Unfortunately, there's no going back in life, and Yu Xianxian could only try her best to cover her mouth and nose and prevent these unpleasant smells from entering her senses.
Even so, it's a drop in the ocean, but at least, ugh, she doesn't feel so nauseous anymore, right?
After enduring what seemed like an eternity, Yu Xianxian finally reached the familiar bend in the road. Turning the corner, she found herself at the end of her midday exploration. However, the weathered iron gate was not locked; in fact, it was half-open. No wonder the cave smelled so intoxicating.
Yu Xianxian cautiously stepped forward, just about to enter and investigate, when a flash of white light appeared and a long sword was held against her neck.
Yu Xianxian reflexively raised her hands in surrender: "Hero, spare my life!"
