"Indeed, we succeeded." Li Xuan also responded with a smile. They walked out of the cave with fatigue on their bodies, looking at the gloomy mountains in the distance. Although the mission was successful, this experience made them deeply feel the fragility and preciousness of life. "We finally solved the ancient secret." He Yuzhu said.

"Yes, we even unearthed some ancient treasures. Everything is worth it." Li Xuan suddenly realized. The two of them moved forward with a grateful attitude, full of expectations for the future.

Despite this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but ask a question. "Li Xuan, do you find all this unbelievable?" he asked, "what we found in this underwater cave."

“There are actually texts recording ancient battlefields here.”

"There are treasures, this is incredible." Li Xuan frowned as he spoke, lost in thought. After sensing He Yuzhu's doubts, he also tried to think about the strange experience in the cave. "It's indeed a bit unbelievable. I have always believed in science."

“But these traces of history made me start to question.”

"Perhaps there are still mysteries in this world waiting for us to explore." Li Xuan said. "This is a history that has continued for thousands of years." He Yuzhu sighed.

In a corner of the historic battlefield, they found a stone tablet with nameless characters engraved on it, which seemed to tell the story of the ancient tribe. "These characters... don't seem to come from our world." Li Xuan recalled the inscriptions on the tablet, his expression filled with disbelief. "This means that we may have a lot of things that we haven't discovered yet."

“No wonder the whole cave is filled with an atmosphere of the unknown.”

They were immersed in the fun of exploring these mysterious words. It was late at night,...

It was not until the night was deep and the stars were high that He Yuzhu and Li Xuan finally returned to their small home on the isolated island after a long journey. They were shocked to see that everything in the room had been looted and the scene was in a mess. Chairs and tables were lying in all directions, and clothes were scattered everywhere.

Li Xuan's face darkened and he frowned unconsciously, commenting: "It looks like there are guests visiting here, which doesn't seem to be a good thing." He Yuzhu looked around suspiciously and whispered in a light tone.

"It may be those who are tracking my whereabouts. We have to be cautious at every step." Li Xuan stroked He Yuzhu's shoulder and said comfortingly.

"Don't worry. We have been through the dangerous wilderness and the harsh environment. What's the harm in this little setback?"

"We should remain calm and search more carefully, maybe we can find some clues." He Yuzhu agreed, and the two began to search the entire room together.

They searched every little corner, but found nothing.

Just when the two were about to lose heart, Li Xuan keenly noticed a tiny bit of mud between the floor tiles.

He bent down to examine it, and then asserted, "Look here, this is soil brought in from outside, perhaps a trace of an outsider sneaking in."

He Yuzhu followed closely and said with a worried look on his face: "The situation is dangerous. We must be careful. They may still be watching around."

The two quickly gathered up the practical items and food necessities in the house, then hurriedly left their original safe haven and began to search for clues around Soso Island. After a short search, they found some traces.

They walked on the flattened grass and passed by the traces revealed by the dead branches and leaves, all of which indicated that someone had been sneaking around here recently.

Li Xuan frowned and thought: "They may still be nearby. We have to flee quickly and choose a safer place."

He Yuzhu nodded in agreement, and the two of them quickly left the area, choosing holes to dig pits between the islands, while unknowingly being on guard against any enemy tracking them.

The whole island was surrounded by silence, and the sea surface was sparkling with golden light under the sunlight.

The calm and gentle sea breeze caresses you, bringing a hint of the sea scent.

They walked non-stop on the beach, enjoying the warmth of the sun, but deep down they were filled with worry and anxiety. He Yuzhu couldn't suppress his doubts and asked, "Do you guess how they found this place?"

"We have always kept it a secret and have not revealed any clues."

Li Xuan frowned: "Perhaps it was a coincidence that we caught their attention and aroused their interest." He Yuzhu sighed: "What we encountered this time was incredible."

"We have been pursuing the true meaning of knowledge, but we have unexpectedly fallen into the current situation." Li Xuan said in a low voice: "We can't be careless."

"They may be here for the precious things in our hands, so they are tracking us so hard." He Yuzhu continued softly. The two of them kept walking.

As if they had a telepathic connection, they both suddenly felt the pressure pressing and endless.

Suddenly, they heard whispers and footsteps in the distance, and they immediately looked for a hidden place to hide.

When a group of people dressed in black, expressionless and holding weapons appeared in sight, Li Xuan and He Yuzhu realized the seriousness of the situation. Li Xuan warned vigilantly: "We have to be extra careful, it is very dangerous now." He Yuzhu nodded seriously.

Suddenly, the roar of the waves revealed a ship, which was docked next to the island. The two immediately deduced that this might be their means of escape. Li Xuan urged: "Hurry up, we must board that ship and escape from here immediately." They moved quietly towards the ship.

However, the pursuers also noticed their movements and quickly approached, intending to prevent them from boarding the ship. He Yuzhu and Li Xuan sprinted at full speed in this crisis, their hearts filled with anxiety and fear. They fled in the long night, hiding in the hidden place covered with trees, and their hearts became heavier.

Every rustle of leaves almost took their breath away, and they moved on hands and feet through the forest, crossing the river, easily ignoring bushes and rocks.

They tried to move at the highest speed and with the least noise to avoid attracting attention. He Yuzhu quickly instructed: "Li Xuan, let's hide in the dense forest over there!" Li Xuan responded: "Okay, follow me and stay alert." They quickly went deep into the dense forest, where the dense branches and leaves acted as a natural barrier.

In the dim woods, their heartbeats seemed to echo in every corner. The night breeze gently swayed the leaves, and the soft moonlight shone on their uneasy faces.

He Yuzhu whispered, "Do you think they are still tracking us?" Li Xuan looked around and replied softly, "It's possible. We'd better hide here a little longer until we are sure they have left." In the secluded woods, time became extremely long and every second was a torture.

They supported each other and sat on the rocks in the forest. Their eyes kept looking around, alertly waiting for the opportunity.

He Yuzhu asked with a hint of uneasiness: "Li Xuan, do we still have hope of returning safely?" Li Xuan patted his shoulder and said softly: "Don't worry, we will definitely find a way. The most important thing now is to stay calm and wait for the right time."

Although their panic seemed uncontrollable, they knew safety was out of reach. In the wooded darkness, they could only hope that the night would bring a ray of light.

He Yuzhu asked, "Li Xuan, can we find anything to protect ourselves?" Li Xuan replied, "It seems there is nothing nearby that can be used for protection."

Li Xuan frowned and said in a firm tone: "Now we can only wait patiently until we are sure they have left, then we can start our action." There was a hint of helplessness and impatience in his words.

A tiny sound deep in the woods interrupted the quiet moment, and it sounded as if something was quietly approaching their direction.

Immediately, He Yuzhu and Li Xuan became very alert, their bodies tensed, and they carefully observed their surroundings. The dark forest in front of them became more and more obscure, which made people feel a little scared.

He Yuzhu tried to control the anxiety in his heart and asked in a low voice: "Did you hear any sound just now?"

Li Xuan's answer was also full of nervousness: "I did hear some unusual noises. We need to remain vigilant and be prepared to respond to emergencies at any time."

In the tense and anxious atmosphere, they huddled together, supporting each other, their eyes vigilantly scanning every corner of the woods where danger might be hidden.

The two of them stood firm in the darkness, each feeling the other's presence through his or her own heartbeat and breathing, and using this silent communication to remind and encourage each other.

In such darkness and silence, He Yuzhu couldn't help but express his uneasiness: "Li Xuan, do you think we can really escape?" There was an imperceptible instability in his tone.

Li Xuan responded firmly, with a hint of affection in his eyes: "Don't worry, we can definitely find a way to escape, we will definitely escape successfully!" His eyes were firmly and affectionately locked on He Yuzhu.

Under the cover of night, the two of them continued their wait, looking forward to the life that appeared before their eyes. The passage of time seemed to be slow and heavy in the darkness, making their mood and hope fragile.

Suddenly, a slight sound of footsteps broke the tranquility of the night. He Yuzhu and Li Xuan raised their heads nervously and locked the direction from which the sound came.

They only saw a blurry figure slowly walking out of the woods, and their hearts tightened. He Yuzhu asked in shock and nervousness: "Who are you?!" and unconsciously grabbed Li Xuan's hand.

Li Xuan forced out a trace of calmness and replied: "My origins are unknown, and we need to be prepared for any possible situation." They watched the shadow become clearer and clearer, and found that the person who came was a man in black, whose appearance and aura made people feel extraordinary.

When the man stopped, he asked in a calm voice: "Are you He Yuzhu and Li Xuan?" This question startled He Yuzhu and Li Xuan. They didn't understand how the other party knew their names.

The man simply said, "I'm here to help you. Follow me, we still have a chance." His words were full of mystery, which made the two men involuntarily let down their guard.
