Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 981: Secretly Leaving
Xuan Bei did not disclose what was written in the letter. When the letter was received, Zhang Han happened to be causing trouble. No one seemed to pay attention to the problem with the letter. They probably thought it was a provocation written by Zhang Han.

But if a letter of provocation had already been written, there would be no need for Zhang Hanlai to rush up the mountain in person.

Li Chengxi felt that the letter and Zhang Hanlai should have no connection, at least not directly. Especially if the death of the host was also related to the letter, the possibility would be even lower.

After all, Zhang Hanlai's behavior when he learned that the host had died did not seem like an act. He should not have known about this before.

Moreover, Xuan Bei's nervous attitude is also very suspicious, and it is very curious what is written in this letter.

Yang Yiyi shone the flashlight around and didn't see anything else. Just as she was about to leave, she heard Li Chengxi say:

"Go deeper into the cave. Yes, in this direction. Do you see that wall? Push it hard."

Yang Yiyi did as Li Chengxi said, bit the flashlight in her mouth, and reached out to push hard.

Almost at the same time, a crack appeared in the wall, like a revolving door, which was pushed open by Yang Yiyi's brute force.

"There's actually a secret door here!"

"Go in and take a look, maybe there's some treasure there."

Things like secret doors and traps could not be hidden from Li Chengxi at all; he only had to press the ALT key and they would be exposed.

This door is very heavy and not everyone can open it. Either you have to be as invincible as Yang Yiyi, or you have to have deep inner strength.

So it feels like having a treasure.

There was still a cave behind the door. After Yang Yiyi went in, she reset the secret door and then explored forward with a flashlight.

This time we are going to walk a very deep distance, and it should be a naturally formed cave, with no signs of artificial repair.

Yang Yiyi walked inside for nearly a quarter of an hour, and was almost reminded of the psychological trauma of her trip to Leishan Zang. Then she felt a breeze blowing from the other end of the cave.

The cave should be connected to the outside world.

Yang Yiyi quickened her pace a little, and soon she saw light appearing on the other side.

Turning off the flashlight and walking over, Yang Yiyi lifted the vegetation that was blocking the way and found herself out.

This might be the back mountain of Jingci Temple. One can faintly hear the sound of the temple bells. The distance is not too far, but at first glance there is nothing but grass except for the trees. There are no treasures here.

It seemed to be just an emergency escape route, not a secret passage where treasures were hidden, which made Li Chengxi a little disappointed.

Li Chengxi was about to speak when he saw Yang Yiyi suddenly squatting and using vegetation as cover. He immediately realized that there might be someone nearby.

"Don't cry, the host master must have gone to the Western Paradise."

"I know, but I..."

The voice sounded familiar. Yang Yiyi thought about it and remembered the group of kids who had been leaning on the wall to watch her practice martial arts these past few days.

"The host master was fine yesterday, how come he suddenly..."

"The host master is old, who can say for sure?"

Were you fine yesterday?

These words made Yang Yiyi stunned. Didn’t they say that the host was in seclusion and was not seeing guests?

She quietly leaned out and saw several boys leaning against a tree in the woods below. Some of them were wiping their tears, while others were simply lying on the trees and crying.

"Who! Who's there!"

"Is the host master back?"

Because of the backlight, they couldn't see Yang Yiyi above them clearly, but there was her shadow, and Yang Yiyi was discovered as soon as she poked her head out.

Since she was seen, Yang Yiyi simply flew down.

When the children saw that it was Yang Yiyi, they immediately showed undisguised disappointment on their faces.

"What are you doing here?"

"I also want to ask you what you are doing in the back mountain?" The young monk Jingkong wiped the tears from his face:

"This is our secret base, known only to us and the host master."

"I'm just walking around the back hill."

After making an excuse, Yang Yiyi asked again:
"You just said that the host was fine yesterday. What happened? Wasn't the host master in seclusion?"

Upon hearing this, Jingkong glared at his companion who was wiping tears beside him, and the latter seemed a little aggrieved.

"Don't worry, tell your sister. I won't tell anyone else."

The children hesitated for a moment and seemed to be looking towards the sky.

"In fact, the host master often comes here to teach us martial arts when he is in seclusion."

"why?"

"We don't know either. Once, when we came here to roast a hare in the middle of the night, we were discovered by the abbot. After that, he came here to teach us martial arts whenever he had time, and told us not to tell other people in the temple. He came here yesterday as well, and he was fine then."

The reason why Jingkong said it so readily was probably because Yang Yiyi was not from the temple.

"When you saw the host master yesterday, did you see anything unusual?"

"Did not notice."

A child nearby said:
"I noticed that the host master always seemed to be secretly looking at Jingkong."

"Don't talk nonsense, look at me."

"But I saw it."

It was the middle of the night, and the host actually ran to the back mountain to look for these kids. He must have nothing better to do.

"The host master also said that when we grow up a little more, he will teach us the most invincible martial arts in the world."

As the children talked, their eyes became red again.

Seeing this, Yang Yiyi took out a handful of candy from her arms:
"Don't cry, don't cry. The host definitely doesn't want you to be sad. Sister has some candy here."

A handful of toffee was shared among the children. After all, they were still children at heart, and their moods were obviously much better after having candy to calm their mouths.

But then again, the situation at the temple seems a bit complicated.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Yang Yiyi gave the children candies and told them not to tell anyone about her affairs. Then she walked around and returned to the temple from the back mountain.

The situation in the temple seemed to be the same as usual, but the atmosphere among the monks was very heavy.

I walked all the way back to the wing room and opened the door to see Wu Shaoyi telling Princess Mingzhu about his recent trip to southern Xinjiang.

Princess Mingzhu was overjoyed when she heard this, especially when she heard Jiufeng appeared and invited Yang Yiyi to visit the big tree. She wished she could be there in person so that she could touch this mythical beast like Jiufeng.

Oh no, I forgot to tell Wu Shaoyi to stop talking nonsense.

If Princess Mingzhu gets the mood and insists on going to Southern Xinjiang, that would be troublesome.

I guess the palace guards would have to scratch their scalps.

Li Yingluo and Zheng Yinping were also listening nearby. Yang Yiyi had mentioned this process in her letter, but naturally she did not mention a word about the dangers involved. They only heard the details from Wu Shaoyi.

When Li Yingluo saw Yang Yiyi pushing the door in, she looked up and winked at her. The latter shook her head, indicating that she had not found any useful clues.

Zheng Yinping also noticed the eye contact between the two. She shrugged, and the meaning was very clear. Since there were no clues, let's just watch the show with peace of mind. We won't be here for a few days anyway.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Princess Mingzhu suddenly turned around and asked:
"Has Miss Yang already known that there was something fishy about the host's death?"

This question made Yang Yiyi stunned. Isn't this princess just someone who comes to watch the show for fun?
