Chapter 190 You want to see people alive, you want to see corpses when you die
Yun Muze sighed softly, "When I saw Miss Guan walking up the mountain alone, I had originally planned to return to the post station.
However, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind. After all, she was just a weak woman, going up the mountain alone.
If something unexpected happened, I wouldn't be able to bear it! So I changed my mind and decided to go up the mountain to check it out.
But who would have thought that I have been wandering around in the mountains for a long time, but I still haven't seen any trace of Miss Guan.
In desperation, I thought that perhaps she had already gone down the mountain on her own."
At this point, he suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of displeasure. He asked the person in front of him, "What? Are you questioning what I said?"
Yun Muheng stared at Yun Muze with a stern expression, thinking to himself: There must be some falsehood in what he said, but this is not the time to get too entangled with him. The most urgent thing right now is to find Guan Qiuyao as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Yun Muheng slowly withdrew his scrutiny of the other person and said, "No, I don't have any doubts about my brother. Miss Guan hasn't returned to the post station yet. Since my brother has searched the mountain to no avail, I will lead my men to search the mountain again."
After saying that, he didn't even look at Yun Muzhe, but raised his legs and walked towards the mountain.
After hearing Yun Muheng's thoughts, Ye Chuxue couldn't help but reveal a hint of admiration. She stared at Yun Muheng and thought to herself, "Well, this guy does have some judgment. He's not completely stupid."
Just when Ye Chuxue was about to follow Yun Muheng up the mountain, Yun Muzhe suddenly flashed and stood in front of Ye Chuxue like a wall.
His face was solemn, his eyes full of concern, and he said softly, "Xue'er, this mountain is steep and dangerous. As a weak woman, it's not appropriate for you to take risks rashly. It's better not to go up."
However, before Ye Chuxue could respond, Yun Muheng came over quickly.
Without hesitation, he reached out and hugged Ye Chuxue tightly in his arms. His expression was stern and his voice was icy as he said, "Xue'er is my princess. I will naturally ensure that she is safe and sound. There is no need to trouble my royal brother to worry about her."
After saying that, Yun Muheng glared at Yun Muzhe fiercely, as if warning him not to meddle in other people's business.
Then, he hugged Ye Chuxue and strode away without looking back.
Looking at the two figures walking away, Yun Muzhe's originally gentle face instantly became gloomy, and his eyes seemed to be soaked in venom, flashing with a heart-pounding cold light.
He bit his lips tightly and squeezed out a cruel word from between his teeth: "Xue'er, you are destined to belong to me. In this life, no matter what, you will never escape from my grasp! Not only you, but also this beautiful land will one day belong to me!"
Not long after Ye Chuxue and Yun Muheng set foot on the mountain road, they saw a petite figure crying bitterly from afar.
When I got closer, I saw that it was Xiao Cui who was holding Guan Qiuyao's clothes tightly and sitting curled up on a big rock.
Seeing this, Ye Chuxue quickened her pace, quickly came to Xiao Cui, and asked softly, "Where did you find these clothes of your young lady?" Her voice was gentle but with a hint of anxiety.
Xiao Cui was originally immersed in great grief, but after hearing Ye Chuxue's question, she suddenly raised her head like a ray of dawn in the darkness.
When she saw the person in front of her clearly, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes.
She stood up hastily, even stumbling a little due to her haste. However, she didn't care about anything else and excitedly saluted Ye Chuxue and Yun Muheng, saying, "Your servant greets Prince Yun Xin and Princess Yun Xin! In reply to your question, Princess, I found the young lady's clothes under a large tree not far ahead."
Having said that, Xiao Cui seemed to suddenly remember something important and her face turned pale.
She quickly knelt on her knees and kowtowed repeatedly to Ye Chuxue and Yun Muheng, her forehead hitting the ground with a crisp sound.
At the same time, she kept begging, "Prince, Princess, please have mercy on me and save my young lady!
The guards all said that my young lady might have met with an accident and been eaten by wild beasts in the mountains. But I absolutely do not believe it!
Please send more people to look for her, maybe the young lady is just injured and hiding..." Xiao Cui became more and more sad as she spoke, and she almost burst into tears in the end.
Seeing the maidservant in front of her so loyal to her master, Ye Chuxue couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration in her heart, so she said softly: "Hurry up and get up, don't worry, even if Miss Guan meets with an accident, we must see her alive or dead.
Even if I have to turn the entire mountain upside down, this princess will never give up easily."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Cui burst into tears of gratitude and kowtowed repeatedly in thanks: "Thank you so much, Princess! I am willing to die to repay your kindness!"
"Okay, don't waste any more time. Get up quickly and lead the way. Lead us to where we found those clothes and take a good look to see if we can find some clues." After Ye Chuxue finished speaking, he signaled Xiao Cui to lead the way.
Just as Xiao Cui was leading Yun Muheng and Ye Chuxue to the foot of the towering tree, suddenly, a shrill scream rang out, breaking the originally silent forest.
Xiao Cui froze in place as if struck by lightning, her whole body trembling, her eyes filled with fear. Her lips trembled as she spoke in a trembling voice, "Princess...Princess, this is the voice of my young lady!"
Yun Muheng and Ye Chuxue's faces changed drastically when they heard this, and they hurriedly quickened their pace and rushed towards the big tree.
However, when they arrived under the tree, there was deathly silence all around, and the screams had disappeared without a trace.
Ye Chuxue forced herself to calm down and called out cautiously, "Guan Qiuyao, are you here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings remained silent, with only the rustling sound of the breeze blowing through the leaves, which was creepy.
On top of this sturdy tree, poor Guan Qiuyao was being tightly wrapped around her by a giant python! Her breathing became increasingly difficult, as if she was about to faint from suffocation in the next second.
However, at this critical moment, a familiar cry suddenly entered Guan Qiuyao's almost blurred consciousness - it was Ye Chuxue's voice! In an instant, a spark of hope suddenly ignited in her originally dull eyes, and her joy was beyond words.
At this moment, Guan Qiuyao no longer cared about shame. She used all her strength and shouted anxiously to the bottom: "Ye Chuxue, I'm here! I'm on this tree! Please come and save me quickly!" Every word echoed in the air with deep fear and desire for survival.
