Li Yan…did not dare to disobey Gu Yao's repeated orders! He didn't dare, neither did Ke Tingzhi and Zhu Lu!
Those who do not return to the valley on time will be grounded in the Cave of Repentance for a month!
The Cave of Repentance was a cave located on the cliff of Remnant Red Valley. Entering the Cave of Repentance meant losing contact with the outside world for a month. In that one month, no one else would come to see you except me!
They weren't willing to experience such a huge torture!
Zhu Lu had committed a crime once before and was locked up in the Cave of Repentance. The fat boy, who was not considered stupid, often cried for his parents during that month. They often heard his wails below. That kind of cry made them panic.
They couldn't take it anymore. After kneeling for seven days and seven nights, Gu Yao only lost ten days.
Zhu Lu, who returned after twenty days, had lost quite a bit of weight. He was almost skin and bones, and his brain seemed to have become stupid. Sometimes, he would talk nonsense, and sometimes, he would not speak for a long time. He would also cower when he saw people. After more than three months, he slowly recovered.
The lesson they had learned from others was enough for them to remember for the rest of their lives.
"Second…Second Senior Brother, we…we should go back first!”Zhu Lu said with a trembling voice. He did not want to experience such a terrifying experience again!
Ke Tingzhi gulped and nodded in agreement. He then looked at Li Yan.
Li Yan hesitated. If they went back, if Sister Yu didn't go back in time, then... she was a girl, and she was locked up in the Cave of Repentance. This...
Tang Feixiu knew how powerful the Cave of Repentance was. He thought about it and had an idea.
"Second Senior Brother, how about this? Let's go back first. Regarding the matter of finding Younger Sister Gu Yu, let my uncle help. When Uncle finds her, he can send someone to send her to the valley. That will do! "At that time, although it will be a little late, we will plead with Master. I reckon that Master will not punish us too severely! This way, it's better than all of us going back later!”
Li Yan thought about it carefully and weighed the pros and cons. He nodded." Little Junior Sister is really thoughtful.”
Tang Feixiu smiled faintly.
"Uncle, I'll leave little sister Gu Yu to you to find. If you find her, I'll have to trouble Uncle to send her back.”
Ma Xinduan nodded." I'll send someone to look for him!"”
"Sorry to trouble you!" Li Yan thanked him." Please…find her!”
Ma Xinduan nodded.
He had already called for a carriage outside the residence. Li Yan and the others boarded the carriage and returned to the Red Crescent Valley.
"Butler, call all the servants in the residence who are free now.”Ma Xinduan instructed.
When Ma Zhenshang and Tang Hongying heard the news, they also rushed over in a hurry.
"Father, what's going on, Gu Yu disappeared?”
Ma Xinduan looked at his son strangely. He had never seen that little girl before, so how could he know this person and be so worried about her?!
Seeing the cloth on his hand, she asked," What happened to your hand?”
Tang Hongying also raised her eyebrows.
" This…" Ma Zhenshang was anxious for Gu Yu. He did not expect his father to ask about this matter and was unable to react in time.
The shrewd Tang Hongying looked at her son's evasive eyes and guilty expression, and her heart sank. "Shang 'er, what did you do to Yu' er?”
"Ah?" Ma Zhenshang's face revealed a trace of panic.
Seeing his mother's expression of understanding, he thought to himself that this was bad. This shrewd mother must have noticed something!
"Did you do something to Yu 'er?!”Tang Hongying's beautiful eyes narrowed, and a cold light shot out from them. He knew that things were bad and he had to tell the truth.
Immediately, he explained the cause and effect.
Tang Hongying was furious when she heard that. She kicked him without hesitation." You brat, you're really messing around. Why are you messing around with your cousin?! The young lady was quarreling at home. Why did you join in the fun and even scared her out of the residence!”
Ma Xinduan saw that his wife had lost her temper and quickly tried to persuade her," Hongying, don't be angry. The most important thing now is to find her!”
"Nonsense!" She glared at him." And you, Old Buxiu. You're already so old, yet you're still bickering with a young lady. Hmph, don't think that I don't know what you did this afternoon!”
Ma Xinduan's old face turned red. He couldn't put down his old face after hearing what she said. However, she did not dare to refute and could only mumble,"Yes!" That's right! Hongying, you're right!"
Seeing him like that, Tang Hongying couldn't say anything more, but the anger in her heart still hadn't subsided.
"Old Master, I've found all the servants who are free for you!”The butler came in to report.
Tang Hongying glared at him and shouted,"Butler, get everyone in the residence here. Go out and look for them!"”What time was it now? There was nothing to do. If he was a human, he had to go out and find Yu 'er for her. Who knew what that little girl had experienced outside alone?
What if…something happened?
Ma Zhenshang was also anxious."Butler, hurry up and get everyone here!”She didn't expect him to make such a fuss in the afternoon that she wouldn't be back so late. If he had known that this would happen, he definitely would not have agreed to his cousin's request to tease her.
Now, he was filled with regret!
Soon, everyone in the Ma Estate was gathered. With Tang Hongying's order, everyone went out to search! Coincidentally, when they were looking for Gu Yu, she had fallen asleep. After all, she had walked a long way in the morning and spent the entire morning strolling in the garden when she arrived at the Ma Manor. She had come out without resting at noon, so she was naturally sleepy.
When she woke up, it was already late. Most of the people were asleep, and the people of the Ma Manor did not dare to make too much noise!
Hence, he missed it!
To be precise, Gu Yu was awakened by the cold!
The nights in spring were cold. The fine straw could not be compared to the thick and warm quilt.
Oh…what time is it!
As far as her eyes could see, it was pitch-black. She could not tell what time it was!
One thing she knew very well was that she was still here, still in the thatched cottage. Brother Li…they had not found her!
Ah! This is bad!
She belatedly realized that it was already so late. The Valley Master did not see her return to the valley. What should she do? She was finished. What should she do? She would be beaten to death by the Valley Master!
Brother Li told her that if she didn't return to the valley on time, she would be severely punished. He didn't tell her what the punishment was, but he told her not to forget to return to the valley on time.
What should he do? What should he do?
She was so anxious that she was about to cry!
