Exile? A mad, wicked woman empties the national treasury to escape famine.

Chapter 975 Did they dig up someone's ancestral grave?

Ji Yunshu's heart skipped a beat. No way, no way, is this guy really that impulsive?

As long as the green hills remain, there's no fear of running out of firewood. What could be more important than life itself?!

With that thought in mind, Ji Yunshu didn't hesitate. With a thought, she teleported to the man's side, raised her hand, and delivered a chop to his neck.

The man was already injured and his mind was on edge. Suddenly, he saw Ji Yunshu teleport.

Stunned for a moment, before he could react, he felt a sharp pain in his neck, lost consciousness, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground.

Worried that the knife in the man's hand would fall to the ground and attract the attention of people outside, Ji Yunshu quickly reached out and caught the knife.

With that one blow, there was no time to help the man up; he collapsed limply to the ground.

Beneath the man, a large pool of blood spread out, a shocking sight.

Ji Yunshu couldn't help but think to herself, "This guy has quite a backbone. He's been injured so badly, yet he's held on for so long."

Even if he doesn't commit suicide, he will probably bleed to death soon.

"Is the cave properly secured? Is there a way out?"

"No, there are no other exits in the cave, only this one!"

The footprints on the ground only show where he went in, not where he came out. He must still be inside!

"Okay, as long as he's still inside, catching him is just a matter of time!"

"Someone come here! Find a way to get into the cave and get him out!"

Outside the cave, the voices of Xiao San and the guards continued to echo. Inside, Ji Yunshu looked at the unconscious man lying on the ground and finally sighed.

She didn't know what grudge this man had against the First Prince and the Second Prince that would lead to him being chased by two groups of people, but her intuition told her that this man should be a good person.

After all, neither the eldest prince nor the second prince are good people. It's probably right for me to save the people they want to get rid of.

Thinking this, she didn't hesitate. With a thought, she carried the unconscious person on the ground directly into the room.

Given that the man had a lot of blood on him, Ji Yunshu was too lazy to clean him up, so she simply put him on the open ground outside the villa.

Fortunately, there was tall grass in the open space, a large lawn, and the grass was soft, so putting a person on it wouldn't cause more serious injury.

After sending the person into the space, she also threw the man's sword in.

She ignored the bloodstains on the ground; since the person had entered the cave, the presence of bloodstains was normal.

Ji Yunshu pressed herself against the cave wall to the cave entrance, trying to hide herself in the darkness.

She couldn't see clearly outside. From her angle, she could only vaguely see a tall, large tree with dense foliage, perfect for hiding her figure.

Ji Yunshu roughly estimated the distance.

From her current location, she doesn't know if she can reach that tree through space.

If she can't get there, she can only hide in the space for the time being and come out after these people leave.

As she was thinking this, she saw a figure flash by on the cave wall to the side, and Ji Yunshu's heart skipped a beat.

It seems those people must have sneaked into the cave without anyone noticing.

Not daring to waste any more time, Ji Yunshu closed her eyes, silently pondered for a moment, and tried to enter the space to teleport herself to the big tree on the other side.

In a moment, she felt a chill all over her body. Overjoyed, she opened her eyes and found herself back on the big tree she had seen before.

The treetops were covered in snow, and the huge leaves completely obscured their shapes.

Ji Yunshu could see the situation in front of the cave entrance through the gap.

At this moment, the once deserted cave entrance was now completely surrounded by two groups of people, and the entire cave was densely packed with people.

Besides the entrance to the cave, there were also people guarding the back of the cave.

Ji Yunshu's expression darkened. If she hadn't misheard in the cave, someone should have told Xiao San that there was no path behind the cave.

Why is this man so heavily guarded even though there's no road ahead?!

Why did they go to such great lengths to find us?

Seeing that the mistress's people had already entered the cave, Ji Yunshu didn't plan to stay any longer.

Once they find no one in the cave, they'll probably search everywhere. It's best to leave this place as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Ji Yunshu did not hesitate, turned back, and threw the telescope back into the space.

Turning around to look at the area behind me, I saw large trees all around and snow on the ground. If I walked on it, it would be easy to leave footprints and traces.

She decided not to go down, but to use the space to move through the trees and leave the place.

Her gaze locked onto a large tree not far away, and she used her mind to teleport there.

Then go to another big tree.

After repeating this several times, she returned to the pool by the waterfall.

Near the pool, the search by Xiao San and his group had left some leaves and weeds scattered everywhere, and the ground was covered with footprints.

Hearing no movement around her, Ji Yunshu swiftly climbed down from the tree and searched the vicinity, trying to see if the person in the space had left anything important nearby.

After searching for a while, they found no clues, but they did see some bloodstains on the rock face above the cliff.

It must be something left behind by the person in the space when they fell off the cliff.

Since she hadn't found anything and the person in the space hadn't woken up, Ji Yunshu decided to head back.

As she turned to leave, a small pebble rolled down the cliff and splashed into the pool below.

Ji Yunshu paused, turned her head, and stared at the cliff halfway down.

There were many weeds on the cliff, which covered the rock face. In addition, the fog was very thick, so she could only barely see a little bit of the cliff from the bottom.

As for what's happening halfway down the cliff, it's impossible to see anything clearly.

Just as I was thinking this, suddenly, another small stone rolled down the cliff.

Now, Ji Yunshu became even more vigilant.

He quickly hid himself inside a large tree.

She was slightly surprised. Could it be that the people chasing her had also come down from the cliff?

Pursuing them from above, while flanking them from below?

What exactly did this person in the space do?!

If the eldest and second princes went to such lengths, wouldn't they have dug up the imperial tombs?

Only if ancestral graves were desecrated would it be worth the First and Second Princes sending so many people to hunt them down!

Ji Yunshu thought to herself, "This is what I'm complaining about."

He climbed up the big tree, took out the telescope from his spatial storage, and looked up along the path where the pebbles had rolled down.

For a while, no movement was observed.

Occasionally, a gust of wind blows by, and you can see the vines and weeds on the cliff face swaying slightly.

The fog is getting thicker and thicker.
