When Xiao Yuli looked at her, Ning Fan also looked into his eyes, but she couldn't understand his emotions at this time.

The dark peach blossom eyes seemed to be filled with happiness and deep affection, but the rest were filled with extremely complicated emotions.

Although Ning Fan can see through people's hearts, she won't use this ability on everyone. She will only use it on special people under special circumstances.

But now facing Xiao Yuli, she suddenly had the idea of ​​spying on him.

Thinking like this, Ning Fan took a step forward.

Only then did she notice that Xiao Yuli was very tall. He looked much taller than Ning Yizhou, about 185.

As the distance between the two gradually shortened, Ning Fan only reached his shoulders and had to look up to see his face clearly.

But this way we can see Xiao Yuli's face more clearly, and in the dim light on the edge of the cliff, we can even see the fine hairs on his face.

Xiao Yuli seemed to have noticed something, and lowered his eyes to look at Ning Fan.

When Ning Fan met his eyes, he didn't dodge at all. Instead, he tilted his head and blinked.

When he lowered his eyes slightly, you could see his thick eyelashes forming a small shadow under his eyes.

She is indeed a beauty.

Looking at Ning Fan's face so close to him, Xiao Yuli's pupils suddenly tightened and his body leaned back unconsciously, but with the railing behind him there was no way to retreat.

His hands hit the railing and he held it tightly, his slender fingers turning slightly white from the exertion.

Looking at the person in front of him from such a distance made Xiao Yuli feel like he had blasphemed the gods, but he couldn't bear to look away.

The two just stared at each other without saying a word.

The street lights overhead flickered slightly, as if echoing the stars in the night sky.

A gust of sea breeze blew over, rolling up Ning Fan's hair and brushing it against Xiao Yuli's face, tickling her, but more of it was the sandalwood on her body and the sweet fruity fragrance in her hair, just like how she felt to others. , mysterious and attractive, which made Xiao Yuli's body stiffer.

Seeing the panic flashing in his eyes, and the body gradually tensing as he got closer, he was not as casual and natural as he usually behaved.

Ning Fan's eyes were filled with a faint smile, and suddenly he no longer wanted to pry into his heart.

Just like the TV series she watched, it would be boring if she knew the solution in advance.

It would be more interesting to follow the protagonist and watch him move towards the ending bit by bit.

Thinking of this, Ning Fan returned to his original position and took a sip of milk tea, as if nothing happened just now.

The mysterious smell of sandalwood mixed with flowers and fruits suddenly faded away, making Xiao Yuli feel a little disappointed. He also took a sip of milk tea to cover up his loss.

For a while, neither of them spoke, and all they could hear was the sound of sipping milk tea.

After calming down, Xiao Yuli still didn't forget his purpose.

He cleared his throat and smiled as wildly as usual.

"Want to go on an adventure?"

Ning Fan just took a sip of milk tea. Hearing these words, he was so surprised that he forgot to swallow it. His cheeks still remained bulging.

The long, indifferent eyes blinked restlessly, full of vivid confusion.

Seeing Ning Fan like this, Xiao Yuli instantly forgot his embarrassment and burst into laughter.

His fingers moved slightly, resisting the urge to poke her cheek.

"How about you, are you going?"

Although she didn't know what he was going to do, Ning Fan guessed that the protagonist was going to advance the plot.

She swallowed the milk tea in her mouth and said, "Okay."

After the two drank this cup of milk tea, they embarked on the adventure.

After leaving the cliff observation deck, they walked deeper along the mountain road. The surrounding bushes became more and more lush, and they became farther and farther away from the lively music festival.

Xiao Yuli led the way, while Ning Fan followed slowly beside him.

Although none of them brought professional adventure equipment, they all seemed to be able to do it with ease, without any hesitation in making last-minute decisions.

Looking at the surrounding environment, Ning Fan frowned slightly.

I don't know why, but I suddenly feel familiar yet strange here.

In a daze, I saw the figure next to me and felt more familiar.

It seems that I have been here a long time ago, and there is someone beside me, but...

The figure seemed smaller.

Who is that?
As if he felt her steps slowing down significantly, Xiao Yuli stopped and turned around to see her frowning.

This is a rare expression on her part.

Xiao Yuli's expression also changed, and he said slightly anxiously: "What's wrong?"

Interrupted by Xiao Yuli, the brief scene completely disappeared from Ning Fan's mind, leaving only a faint sense of familiarity.

She came back to her senses and shook her head at Xiao Yuli, "It's okay."

Not only did she notice something familiar here, she also noticed that Xiao Yuli was also very familiar with the route.

She naturally changed the subject, "Isn't it here yet?"

Xiao Yuli saw that she was indeed not feeling uncomfortable, so he said, "Come on, we'll be there soon."

Although more than ten years have passed, Xiao Yuli still remembers this route.

But this route is not the route of being kidnapped, but the route of escape.

After walking for about another 10 minutes, the bushes gradually became sparse. After pushing aside the last bush, the view suddenly opened up.

After seeing the scene in front of him clearly, Ning Fan raised his eyebrows in surprise.

I thought that the adventure Xiao Yuli mentioned was just an excuse, but it was actually an adventure?

What was in front of him was a cave covered with weeds, and the inside of the cave was pitch black, and he could even smell the dampness inside.

If you hadn't looked carefully, you wouldn't have noticed that there was actually a cave here, and this was a good place to hide.

Xiao Yuli seemed to have guessed her thoughts and laughed, "Not bad, isn't it suitable for adventure?"

"But the real adventure is not here, but inside."

Although he didn't say it, Ning Fan still guessed something.

This should be the place where he was kidnapped, but I don't know why he brought himself here.

However, Ning Fan did not ask this question, but walked in.

"Now that you're here, let's go in."

Looking at her movements, Xiao Yuli's eyes flashed with anticipation, and he followed her in.

The moment he entered the cave, he felt that the temperature dropped sharply by a few degrees, and his eyes became pitch black.

But this didn't matter to Ning Fan, she could still see clearly in this level of darkness.

She was just about to move forward when she felt someone grab her wrist, and then a person walked in front of her, and her eyes lit up at the same time.

Ning Fan raised his head and saw Xiao Yuli's concerned eyes under the dim light.

It turned out that he walked to the front to clear the way and turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone.

"Be careful with your feet."

Ning Fan blinked, feeling that this feeling was a bit novel.

She became a goddess from a very early age, and everyone around her knew her abilities. Even after she woke up, it would be nice if the two naughty kids Ning Yizhou and Liang Qi didn't hide behind her.

It was rare for someone to stand in front of her like this, as if she was just an ordinary person.

Although she didn't need it, she didn't refuse such kindness and let Xiao Yuli walk in front of her.

After illuminating the inside of the cave, Ning Fan noticed that the cave was completely natural. It was basically a karst cave, and it was extremely humid. The road under her feet was also muddy, which made her look a little disgusted.

Suddenly I realized that I was not wearing a long skirt today, otherwise it would be difficult to clean if it got dirty.

The cave is not deep, but because the road is not easy to walk and it is dark, the two of them move very slowly.

The deeper you go, the smell of decay and dampness becomes stronger and stronger.

At this moment, a strange sound was suddenly heard coming from inside the cave.

Xiao Yuli suddenly stopped and looked at the source of the sound seriously, trying to identify what the sound was.

And Ning Fan is hearing this.The moment he heard the sound, he subconsciously took a step back, and his pupils suddenly tightened.

Others may not recognize this voice, but she is particularly sensitive to it.

She has lived for hundreds of years and has nothing to fear, except this...

Ning Fan was just stunned for a second when he saw several dark things rushing out from the cave and heading straight towards them.

It turned out to be four or five bats!

Feeling the approach of the bat, Ning Fan got goosebumps all over her body. She subconsciously raised her hand to drive the bat away.

But as soon as she raised her hand, someone grabbed her wrist, and the hand pulled her over with a slight force.

Realizing that the appearance of the bat made her body stiffen, she did not break free from the hand, but fell along with his strength.

The hand holding her wrist loosened and turned into an arm around her shoulders, and then she was clasped in a strong but elastic embrace.

Ning Fan was stunned. She naturally knew who the person holding her was, but she didn't expect him to do this.

She blinked, her eyes darkened, and her eyelashes brushed the stiff fabric in front of her.

Although the sound of bats was still in my ears, it was very far away. The only sound that was close at hand was the slightly rapid heartbeat.

Since someone was willing to help, Ning Fan did not break away and allowed Xiao Yuli to hold him.

After a few minutes, her ears moved, and by the sound, the bats must have been driven away.

But before she could speak, Xiao Yuli restrained and let go of her.

Ning Fan looked around for the first time. After seeing that there were indeed no bats, he slowly let out a breath and relaxed his tense muscles.

At the same time, Xiao Yuli's concerned voice sounded in his ears, "Don't be afraid, they have all been driven away."

Hearing this, Ning Fan patted his chest for a moment, then slowly raised his head to look at him, just in time to look into his guilty eyes.

"Sorry, I didn't know there were bats here. Are you okay? Do you want to take a rest?"

Ning Fan looked at his expression and spoke slowly, "You..."

"How do you know I'm afraid of bats?"

Xiao Yuli's body paused, his expression changed instantly, and a flash of emotion quickly flashed in his eyes.

Ning Fan only had time to see disappointment before the emotion disappeared.

Xiao Yuli quickly returned to his previous concern, "Ah, I thought girls were afraid."

After saying that, he turned around, but after thinking about it, he looked back at her again.

"Are you really all right?"

Ning Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at him for a few seconds, and then shrugged.

"It's okay, let's go."

Just after taking two steps, I thought of what just happened, "Just now, thank you."

Xiao Yuli laughed and said, "As long as you're fine."

After saying that, he walked in front to clear the way for Ning Fan.

Ning Fan looked at Xiao Yuli's back and became thoughtful.

What was he disappointed about just now?
What outcome does he want to see?
In fact, bats are not common, so most people will not know about it. Only those who have been with her for a long time and have experienced things will know.

As for what Xiao Yuli explained just now, it was indeed okay, but her intuition told her that it was not that simple.Because the matter of the bat made the atmosphere between the two of them a little awkward, no one spoke for a while and just walked forward in silence.

Fortunately, we didn't encounter any more problems along the way, and we were soon out of the cave.

After walking out of the cave, Ning Fan opened his eyes unexpectedly.

I thought there would be some scary place deep in the cave, but it turned out that the cave in front was just a cover-up, and it turned out to be an abandoned warehouse.

The warehouse, like the entrance to the cave, was covered with weeds, and there was a very old iron chain on the iron door.

Xiao Yuli picked up a stone nearby and hit the lock hard. The iron chain broke and the iron door slowly opened with a harsh squeaking sound.

"Wait for me here."

Ning Fan didn't ask him what he was going to do, nor did he move, just stood there.

Xiao Yuli pushed open the iron door and cleared away the intricate vines and weeds under his feet before speaking to Ning Fan.

"Come in."

Ning Fan raised her eyebrows, which surprised her.

He was actually clearing the way for himself.

It has to be said that if it weren't for some of his behaviors that were really suspicious, his score in his own mind would already be very high.

With this thought in mind, she walked into the abandoned warehouse and looked at the surrounding environment.

It can be seen that this place has been abandoned for a long time. The things piled everywhere are covered with thick dust, and these things also look a bit old. They have probably been placed here for a long time.

These are in line with what Xiao Yuli said.

Walking further inside, there is a pillar as thick as a person deep in the warehouse, with ropes scattered around it.

Ning Fan walked over and looked carefully at the position of the rope. Then he thought of something and turned to look at Xiao Yuli.

She was just about to speak when she realized that Xiao Yuli had been looking at her.

After meeting his gaze, his eyes brightened obviously, as if he was expecting what she would say.

This made Ning Fan swallow the words that came to his lips.

This guy is really weird.

It's even stranger since entering here. Generally speaking, people who have been traumatized will not return to the place where they were kidnapped.

Not only did Xiao Yuli take the initiative to ask to come back, but after entering the warehouse, his whole state was different. It didn't appear that he had been traumatized at all, but he was a little eager to try and nostalgic.

Ning Fan couldn't help but start to wonder, could it be that Xiao Yuli had deceived her?
No, she quickly denied it in her heart.

Although she didn't peek into Xiao Yuli's heart, she could easily tell whether a person was lying.

What Xiao Yuli said is indeed true.

But his current state is really strange, completely inconsistent with his experience, unless...

What has happened in this.

Thinking of this, Ning Fan became a little more interested, and she turned back to look at Xiao Yuli.

"More than ten years ago, you must have been around ten years old. Judging from the environment here, it shouldn't be easy to escape. How did you escape so easily?"

These words made the light in Xiao Yuli's eyes dim instantly, as if the last glimmer of hope had disappeared.

Ning Fan didn't urge him, just watched him stand silently.

After a few minutes, Xiao Yuli slowly raised his eyes and looked at her deeply.

What he said had nothing to do with the question just now.

"More than ten years ago, an uncle of mine got something by chance. I thought it looked good and I wanted to get it. I have been carrying it with me ever since. Not long after, I was kidnapped. The kidnappers wanted to silence me, but at the critical moment …”

When he said this, he paused and looked straight at Ning Fan, as if he didn't want to miss any of her reactions.

"A man showed up and rescued me and took me out of here."

Ning Fan asked curiously, "Who is that person?"

Xiao Yuli's eyes were still on Ning Fan, his peach blossom eyes flashing with more complex emotions.

"Haven't you always wanted to know why I'm looking for something belonging to the goddess?"

The sudden change of topic made Ning Fan a little puzzled, but before she could ask, Xiao Yuli continued.

But this sentence surprised her extremely.

"Because I have been helped by the goddess."

Ning Fan opened his eyes wide in surprise, but then frowned.

Have you received help from a goddess?

She related the context and understood that what he meant was that the person who saved him was a goddess.

But how is it possible!

She should still be sleeping more than ten years ago, how could she appear here to help him.

And she had no memory of this incident, and even if she saved him, how would he know that she was a goddess.

You must know that she would never say that she is a goddess to the outside world, especially when facing such a modern little brat.

Ning Fan pondered for a long time and then asked: "Then the thing you mentioned with you is related to the goddess? What is it?"

Xiao Yuli snorted as if he thought of something, "It's just an ordinary stone. I don't know if it's related, but now that stone is no longer with me."

Seeing Ning Fan raise his eyebrows in confusion, he explained, "I was asked to go back."

What Xiao Yuli said was both clear and vague, as if he said everything and nothing at the same time.

Ning Fan thought for a while and guessed that the stone he got was left by one of her apprentices. After all, her apprentice was also a goddess.

Perhaps the apprentice's spiritual power or remnant soul was attached to it, and then the spiritual power or remnant soul was accidentally triggered, and then he was saved.

Ning Fan did not ask any more questions, but changed the question, "Then why do you still come back here after so many years?"

Xiao Yuli looked at Ning Fan's indifferent expression, lowered his eyes, and sighed silently.

When he spoke again, he was back to his usual state, and there was no hint of the strangeness just now.

"I thought I would find something when I returned here, but it seems I was too optimistic."

After speaking, he took two steps back. Just as he was about to speak again, Ning Fan's voice suddenly sounded.

"Don't move!"

Ning Fan's voice was unusually serious, and Xiao Yuli subconsciously stopped where he was, motionless.

"what happened?"

Ning Fan didn't answer, but walked to where he was standing just now and squatted down.

He stretched out his fingers and touched the ground lightly.

The ground was originally covered with a thick layer of dust, but now the prints of Xiao Yuli's shoes were left, which also exposed the original things on the ground.

Ning Fan waved his hand gently, and the dust on the ground was blown to both sides, and the things on the ground were more clearly exposed before their eyes.

Seeing what was on the ground, Xiao Yuli's expression also changed.

Although he has no research on this aspect, after so many years of studying goddesses, he has gained a certain understanding of this aspect.

"This is... a formation?"

Ning Fan glanced at him in surprise, a little surprised that he even knew this.

Xiao Yuli raised the corners of his lips gently, "I'm not just looking for things about the goddess, I'm also trying to understand her."

Ning Fan did not ask him what he knew about the goddess, but nodded, "This is indeed a formation. It seems to have been left here for a long time, and it is not completely completed."

"The position you are standing on is also within the formation. To avoid being triggered, try not to move."

Xiao Yuli frowned, "What kind of formation is that?"

Ning Fan didn't answer. She still squatted on the spot. She injected spiritual power into the formation. The dust on the ground was suddenly shaken away, and the formation pattern on the ground was completely exposed. At the same time, the formation emitted a dazzling light.

After a few seconds, the light disappeared and the formation on the ground also disappeared.

Ning Fan stood up, clapped his hands, and glanced at Xiao Yuli, "Okay, you can move now."

Xiao Yuli took two steps forward and stood next to Ning Fan. He looked at the empty ground and glanced at her slightly hesitantly.

Ning Fan seemed to know what he was going to ask and explained, "This formation has existed for more than ten years. He should have been here when you were kidnapped. Perhaps the appearance of the goddess you call is related to this formation."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuli's expression suddenly changed, he grabbed Ning Fan's wrist and pulled her out of the range of the formation.

Ning Fan was unprepared for him, and was suddenly pulled by him. He staggered two steps to the side, a little confused, "What are you doing?"

Xiao Yuli pursed his lips but did not speak.

Ning Fan seemed to have guessed something suddenly and couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, this formation is no longer there."

Xiao Yuli was stunned, "Did you destroy the formation?"

Ning Fan shook his head, "It's not about sabotage. I sent this certificate directly. Although he is a semi-finished product, if he continues to stay here, he will inevitably have long nights and dreams."

After saying that, he saw a sigh of relief in his hand, and the hand holding his wrist loosened as if he was electrocuted.

Changing the subject somewhat unnaturally, "So this formation is...""

This question made Ning Fan look slightly serious.

"I don't know who set up this formation, but it seems to be a summoning formation, but in fact it traps people in it while summoning, and then sucks away all..."

She paused slightly, thinking about how to describe it in more popular terms.

But Xiao Yuli took the lead and filled in the remaining words.

"Suck away all the spiritual power so that she can't break free from this cage."

Ning Fan nodded.

Xiao Yuli seemed to have thought of something, and his expression turned unusually ugly.

After a while, he spoke.

"It's too late, let's go back."
-
After leaving Lingxiao Mountain, Xiao Yuli sent Ning Fan home again.

She thought that Ning Yizhou would go home before her, but when she got home, she found that the house was dark.

Ning Yizhou didn't come back!
Ning Fan's expression changed slightly, and his brows wrinkled unconsciously.

This silly kid is being chased by so many people, will he not be in any danger?
Xiao Yuli, who was on the side, saw her expression and comforted her: "Maybe he went somewhere to play on the way, or went to find those friends to scold me."

This was said so naturally that it seemed like it happened all the time.

At this moment, a gray car stopped in front of them.

Ning Fan and Xiao Yuli both recognized this as the car Ning Yizhou drove today.

After the gray car stopped, the door was pushed open suddenly, and Ning Yizhou rushed out of the car angrily.

Seeing his appearance, Ning Fan's eyes widened slightly.

Ning Yizhou looked ashen as if he had rolled a few times in a pit, and his hair had completely lost its shape. The most important thing was that the clothes on his body were torn, and he looked like he had been through a fierce battle.

Ning Fan couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Ning Yizhou's anger when he saw Xiao Yuli suddenly turned into grievance after hearing Ning Fan's laughter.

He jumped up on the spot, jumped directly in front of Ning Fan, and hugged her thigh very naturally.

"Ancestor! Look how pitiful I am! It's all because of that kid Xiao Yuli!"

"You must avenge me!"
