C1237 A New Discovery

Medicine King quickly knelt down and explained when he heard Chu Yun's words. "Of course not. Young master, you misunderstood."

"Hmph!" Chu Yun snorted and rolled his eyes at Medicine King," To think that you still remember who your master is. Otherwise, I would have thought that you were living such a good life and had forgotten about me, the true master."

Cold sweat had already seeped out of Medicine King's head. He looked at the man in front of him and knew how ruthless he was. He was afraid that his words would not convince him. He was afraid that he would take the opportunity to confront him.

Therefore, Medicine King quickly lowered his head. "Young Master, don't worry. No matter where I am, I will never forget your saving grace."

That's right. This Chu Yun had saved his life before. If it wasn't for this Chu Yun saving him back then, Medicine King would never exist in this world.

"It's best if you can remember. Let's go down."

Medicine King slowly retreated, leaving Chu Yun alone. He leaned back in his chair and looked at the empty study. He was thinking about where the treasures he was looking for were.

Morin had been in the basement alone for a few days. Although he did not know how many days had passed, the long wait had made him lose track of time.

If he was awake, he would light the candle, but if he wanted to rest, he would extinguish the candle. According to his normal schedule, it should have been three or four days. After all, his candle was reminding him.

Fortunately, he put the candle in the small porcelain plate so that the wax would not flow out. It was not wasted. He could only use the things here.

After all, he hadn't gotten any cotton threads from Long Wu yet. He could only think of a way to make some, just like how he tore off an old cotton t-shirt and rubbed it into cotton threads as the wick of a candle.

After all, in this place, Morin wouldn't have too many requirements, as long as there was a weak light. In order to reduce his energy consumption, Morin basically closed his eyes to rest. At the same time, he also wanted to reduce the consumption of the candle, so he didn't light the candle as much as possible.

Under such circumstances, he might not be able to see the situation ahead clearly. However, there was only one entrance in this basement. If someone wanted to come in, they could only come in from above.

However, when Morin thought of this, he suddenly thought of something. If Medicine King and the others had found their hiding place, it would be too easy to catch them all in one fell swoop.

As long as they entered through the intersection, they wouldn't be able to escape at all. Thinking of this, Morin felt that it was impossible. He could not sit here and do nothing. In any case, Chu Yun had not woken up yet. It was just nice that he could dig a tunnel and leave this place.

Morin thought of this matter and fumbled to light the candle again. After lighting the candle, there was a weak light. He used the light to check the surrounding walls.

Morin hoped to find a place from here that could lead to the outside, so he carefully leaned against the wall and listened. Unfortunately, he could not hear anything.

Morin crawled on the ground and listened again, hoping to hear something he wanted to hear. Because Morin believed that when his grandfather built this basement, it could not just be used to store things. There must be other uses.

When he came down, there were also tables and chairs, other than some herbs and dry rations. It could be said that this was a place of refuge.

Why would his grandfather build a place of refuge? Could it be that someone once wanted to kill him? Morin shook his head. He did not know, and he had never heard his father mention it.

He didn't know if his father knew about this place. Under the dim light, Morin searched everywhere.

When he came down earlier, it was only for temporary shelter. He did not think about looking around. But this time, he decided to look everywhere.

So Morin moved away the things that were blocked in some places. There was a lot of dust on the things that had not been used for a long time. The dust slowly filled the entire basement.

Because the space in the basement was too small, there was no ventilation at all. Morin choked on the dust and coughed.

Morin had just finished coughing. He seemed to have heard Chu Yun coughing, but when he stopped to listen carefully, he did not hear anything. Morin's mind was completely focused on finding the way, so he turned his attention back to this place.

Morin used the weak light to see the basement. There were some herbs left in the basement a long time ago, so he arranged them one by one.

Turning his head, he found a few books about the herbal village. He did not have the mood to read them now, so he could only put the herbs on the other side.

Then Morin continued searching. Suddenly, he seemed to hear a sound coming from the wall. Morin quickly leaned against the wall and listened carefully, but the sound was too weak. Morin did not know what he was hearing.

He picked up a wooden chair from the side and tried to knock it to see if it could break this place, but the more he knocked, the more strange it was. It felt like this place was hollow.

Morin put down the chair and touched the wall. Suddenly, he felt a small bump on the wall.

He tried to push it down gently. A small hole suddenly appeared in front of him. This hole only allowed one person to crawl forward with his back bent.1

Morin tried to crawl forward, and as soon as he entered the cave, he felt a gust of wind blowing from all directions. He did not know where he was in front of him, so he could only go and take a look first.

However, the further he went, the more nervous he became. It was very cold here, as if something was emitting a cold air. This cave was not big, and it had always made Morin unable to straighten his back.

Morin gritted his teeth and continued walking forward. Suddenly, he walked to the end, but there was no exit here. What should he do? Morin stopped and touched his surroundings. However, he did not find any switch that could open the door.

However, Morin noticed that when he touched the stone opposite him, the stone in front of him suddenly emitted a light. It vaguely looked like a dragon totem.

Unfortunately, Morin could not go any further, so he could only retreat. He walked to a place where he could turn his body around. He turned around and continued to crawl into the cave.

Although Morin didn't find the way out, this place could be their temporary refuge. If someone came, they could still hide inside.

However, this was not a long-term solution. They still needed to find a new exit as soon as possible and leave this place.
