257 Another Passage

Ting ting ting ting!

The soldiers try to hit the cave wall after Physician Ou says that there is a secret room behind the wall, which can actually be opened by pressing a lever but since the lever was crushed, the Crown Prince didn’t wait long for Physician Ou to find another way to open the secret wall. And ShinYa’s inner eyes confirm that he did see BaiYing’s presence behind the wall.

BeiYau’s men brought equipment to hit rocks forcing the secret door open.

“Your Majesty, the door is very thick, it is impossible to force it open,” said BeiYau coming to report.

LuoXiang’s face seemed to be between anger and restlessness.

“Heh kid, why can’t he sit still, I just left him for a while and he’s already gone”

Soon ChenMing who followed YoTang to the other side of the cave approached.

“Your Majesty, according to the healer Ou we can enter the cave from the other side of the hill, it is on the other side of the river, the path is longer and it may take some time to reach the end but that is another way to go”

The Crown Prince looked at YoTang, the young man nodded while lowering his head.

.....

“That’s right Your Majesty, only a few elders and masters can enter the cave, and Master has allowed us to get in, but only a few people”

The Crown Prince looked at BeiYau, ChenMing, ShinYa, and YoTang in front of him.

“Prince Ming and Lord ShinYa come with me, Bei you stay here if you can try to open the door at all costs, YingYing’s condition doesn’t allow us to drag on for too long”

BeiYau bowed his head nodding.

“Yes, Your Majesty”

And without stalling the Crown Prince with ShinYa and ChenMing exited the cave towards the other side of the hill.

....

BaiYing was exhausted after going around the room trying to find a way out, his breath was almost out, the cold air in the room made him tired very quickly, not to mention his chest hurt every time he tried to exert himself.

Finally, he who began to despair sat on the edge of the bed where a pile of bodies sitting in meditation was, he was too tired to forget his fear of ghosts or whatever was in there, even the room was too quiet there was no sound whatsoever that made his ears seem to be buzzing softly.

“Heh this is bad”



Kruukkkk.

His stomach rumbled, he was very hungry, if he didn’t die from his illness he could have died of hunger, cold, or even fear.

“Heh how can I be so unlucky, Your Majesty, please help me”

BaiYing lowered his body lying on his side with a distant view around the room, he still had to find a way out or he could suffocate there.

Something caught his attention, looking some distance in front of the alcove there was water dripping from between the rocks, he was thirsty, and the cave was very cold, any water that fell would immediately turn into ice cubes, but, he could see water droplets behind the rock. BaiYing woke up too fast and his hand accidentally scratched the sharp edge of the bed, instantly the blood dripped profusely.

“Ah, ouch”,

And his blood was flowing his ability to heal sometimes appeared and sometimes he didn’t, and this time he seemed to have no energy to heal himself because of the unbearable hunger that he bent down to hold his stomach.

The young man just waved his bloody palm, trying to rip off his clothes, which were too good in quality to make them hard to tear.

“Ich” he finally pulled the cloth from the bed that the meditating figure was sitting on very carefully, even though the cloth was dirty but he needed something to cover the wound, however, BaiYing accidentally pulled the cloth too hard that the meditating figure fell on him.

“Oh no!” BaiYing quickly stood up from his seat avoiding the figure, what had he done? He cursed inwardly, he might have disturbed the ancestor of the Medicine Valley. BaiYing immediately lowered his body to his knees.

“Sorry, I’m sorry I didn’t mean to” he dropped his knee under the bed, and accidentally step on something below his knee.

“Kreek!

There was a sound of movement resembling the friction of a rock on top of another stone, BaiYing looked around, the wall he saw dripping water suddenly shifted.

BaiYing’s eyes widened when he saw that there was another secret room there, BaiYing stood up, whatever it was, the wall might shift to another room.

Brukk!

He turned his head when he heard a loud crash on the floor, something hard fell from the bed, what else if it wasn’t the remaining body of a figure who’s meditating on the bed, but, why was the shape so irregular? What may have fallen so hard that it caused all parts of his skull and bones to scatter on the floor?

Somewhat horrified, BaiYing approached, even though the body might belong to the Elder of the Medicine Valley, he must not be rude to leave his body on the floor just like that, after paying some respect BaiYing slowly tossed aside the cloth intending to collect the remaining bones and place them back on the bed.

“I’m sorry elder, Ying’er didn’t mean to be disrespect.”

However, BaiYing’s hand stopped, maybe the lighting in the room was lacking, but, he didn’t see the round object that should be a human skull, it doesn’t look like a normal skull, he frowned.

“Em, elder, is this really your skull?”

Just a round object resembling a wooden doll, with holes for two eyes and a mouth carved, that, is definitely not a human skull, BaiYing removed the rest of the body parts, and they weren’t even human bones or animal bones, they were just wooden dolls that resembled human’s body.

“This is weird”

He frowned, why would someone on purpose put a doll resembling a meditating person in the room? Did all of YoTang’s stories not true? If the elder really meditated until the end of his life here.

But whatever it was, BaiYing who was holding back the pain in his hands and feet finally arranged the pieces of the wooden doll onto the bed as before.

The young man cheerfully headed towards the open wall behind him. His eyes wide open, the room, no, the wall led him to an open space in another cave, with lots of trees, running water, and warm air, he couldn’t stop admiring the huge space resembles an actual forest, it most likely still in the cave area but there are many holes in the sky that make the space bright like in the outside.

“Waahh”

Without hesitation, the young man entered, found many tall trees with ripe red fruits, this was very coincidental, he was very hungry.

“Yeah food!” without thinking too long the boy ran to one of the biggest apple trees with fruit that refreshed the eyes.

Before climbing up the tree, BaiYing had to tie up his clothes so he wouldn’t be stepped on and fall down, if he fell there no one else would catch him, he could fall and die silly.

“Esteemed and benevolent ancestor of the Medicine Valley, forgive Ying’er for being insolent, but Ying’er is so hungry, Ying will ask for one or two, well, maybe three, hehehe” the boy excitedly climbed up to the tree holding on to the big trunk very carefully, he can’t wait to eat an apple the size of his fist, which although not very big but looks very tasty.

With great care the young man was finally able to climb up the big trunk of the tree and sit on it, his eyes shining at the sight of the many for the shining red Apple that kept calling his name.

“Wow this looks delicious.”

Without thinking too long he plucked the closest one, biting into it with his big mouth. And not waiting for him to reach out his other hand to pluck the other, the boy looked so happy he didn’t care about his surroundings and sat on his perch swinging his legs on a tree branch.

Until something dazzled his eyes, the reflection of light that was directly focused on his eyes, because BaiYing’s guard who was trying to dodge didn’t realize when one of his legs didn’t touch the other’s trunk and couldn’t dodge when his still sore leg slipped from its footing.



???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“Ah!” And his body had to surrender to slide down from the tree.

“No! Your Majesty!” Spontaneously he shouted, but no one else was there especially the Crown Prince who always caught him when he fell from a tree.

“Brukk!”

And the young man fell very hard down hit the ground hard and did not move again after that.

........

The Crown Prince’s bodyguards ran over after surveying the surrounding area.

“Report Your Majesty, the road ahead is blocked by an avalanche, we can’t go through it” reported a young guard. YoTang and ShinYa approached.

“Report Your Majesty, the only way is through this road, but this area is very rarely traveled, there are many wild and strange beasts around, even servant who lived here for twenty years never dared to pass through it, no one dared”

The Crown Prince furrowed with sharp eyes, He thought hard.
