Chapter 122 Recognition
"So, you were reborn too, but why is it that sometimes it's you who appears, and sometimes it's the original Ye Jiuchen?" Dongfang Wan'er really didn't understand the reason, after all, such a thing had never happened to her.
"I don't understand either, Wan'er. Your personality has changed drastically, otherwise I would have recognized you at a glance..."
Dongfang Wan'er's expression was somewhat complicated, and she didn't know how to explain it for a moment: "I've figured it out. In this life, I've returned to seek revenge... hence my slightly different temperament..."
Dongfang Wan'er believed that it was best not to tell Ye Jiuchen about her experiences in the modern world at this time.
"Wan'er, what kind of extraordinary encounter have you had? What is this?"
"Ahem, it was quite an adventure. I possess a treasure chest containing many wondrous items..." Dongfang Wan'er briefly explained...
"Wan'er's encounter was indeed extraordinary..." Ye Jiuchen had just finished speaking when he felt a sharp pain in his head... Ye Jiuchen felt like he was about to disappear again...
"Wan'er, I'm leaving..." Ye Jiuchen said, then collapsed to the ground...
"Thump..." Ye Jiuchen fell to the ground...
"Ye Jiuchen, Ye Jiuchen..." Dongfang Wan'er couldn't see clearly again, so she called out to Ye Jiuchen, but there was no response no matter how many times she called...
Dongfang Wan'er panicked, wondering if he had really fainted. She quickly groped for Ye Jiuchen's body, reaching out to check his breath. Finding he was still breathing, she breathed a sigh of relief. But she was still worried, after all, Ye Jiuchen had suddenly collapsed, and she didn't know if he was injured.
Dongfang Wan'er remembered that she still had a tinderbox on her, so she carefully took it out, blew on it gently, and the tinderbox immediately lit a faint flame. By the light of the flame, she finally saw Ye Jiuchen's condition. She saw Ye Jiuchen lying on the ground, his eyes closed, his face as pale as paper.
"Ye Jiuchen! Ye Jiuchen! Wake up!" Dongfang Wan'er called out anxiously, but Ye Jiuchen did not respond. She was extremely worried and knew she had to find a way to save him.
Dongfang Wan'er carefully observed Ye Jiuchen. Ye Jiuchen was surrounded by snow and ice. His head was directly on the ground, and if he wasn't dealt with in time, he might suffocate.
Thinking of this, Dongfang Wan'er reached out without hesitation and gently lifted Ye Jiuchen's head to make his breathing easier. As she did this, she whispered, "Ye Jiuchen, you must hold on!"
Just then, Dongfang Wan'er heard a commotion outside, and she guessed that the avalanche had stopped. She was secretly relieved, but also knew that she couldn't waste any more time.
"Ye Jiuchen has fainted. I estimate that the original Ye Jiuchen will wake up soon. I need to hurry..." Dongfang Wan'er murmured to herself.
So she decisively took out a snow-digging machine from her spatial ring and prepared to start digging a tunnel.
Dongfang Wan'er started the snowplow and quickly dug into the ground. The machine hummed as it continuously scooped out the snow and ice, creating a narrow passage. She worked hard to operate the machine, trying to dig out the snow as quickly as possible.
Fortunately, the snow wasn't buried very deep, and after some time of effort, Dongfang Wan'er finally managed to dig an exit. She was panting heavily, exhausted, but a relieved smile appeared on her face.
"Great, we can finally leave this place," Dongfang Wan'er muttered to herself. However, she didn't forget Ye Jiuchen. She decided to carry Ye Jiuchen to a safe place first, and then look for a way out.
Dongfang Wan'er bent down, hoisted Ye Jiuchen's body onto her back, and struggled toward the exit. Despite feeling incredibly heavy, she gritted her teeth and persevered.
As she stepped out of the cave, a breath of fresh air rushed towards her. Dongfang Wan'er took a deep breath, savoring the feeling of freedom. She looked around and found that they were in a vast snowfield, with a high mountain in the distance, its summit covered with thick snow.
"Which way should I go now?" Dongfang Wan'er fell into deep thought. She knew that in this unfamiliar land, she needed to rely on her own wisdom and courage to survive.
Dongfang Wan'er carried Ye Jiuchen on her back and continued walking forward. She hoped to find a safe place to rest and wait for Ye Jiuchen to wake up.
As time passed, the sun gradually rose, illuminating the entire snow-covered field. Dongfang Wan'er felt a touch of warmth, and her mood gradually became more optimistic. She believed that as long as she persevered, she would eventually find a way out.
"Finally out..." Dongfang Wan'er looked at the data displayed on the instrument in her hand, nodded in satisfaction, and then put it into her spatial ring.
Then, she turned to look at Ye Jiuchen, who was still unconscious lying beside her, and said softly, "Ye Jiuchen, hey, wake up, wake up..." As she spoke, she reached out and gently patted his cheek.
Ye Jiuchen felt a sharp pain on his face and slowly opened his eyes. He felt a chill in the air, surrounded by pure white snow, and couldn't help but wonder: Where am I? Why is it so cold?
"Wan'er..." Ye Jiuchen opened his eyes groggily and saw Dongfang Wan'er patting his face.
"Oh, Ye Jiuchen, you're awake! I only patted your face gently because I saw you had fainted..." Dongfang Wan'er quickly explained.
Ye Jiuchen: "Gently? My face is burning with pain..."
"Wan'er, how did I end up here..." Ye Jiuchen tried hard to recall what had happened before, but only vague fragments remained in his mind. He only remembered that he had imprisoned the Chu princess, then his head began to ache, and after that, he couldn't remember anything at all.
"Ah, Ye Jiuchen, don't you remember? You insisted on killing the Chu princess, but ended up accidentally injuring her. Afterwards, you collapsed from the poison. The next day, you dragged me to the snow mountain to search for the Heavenly Snow Lotus..."
While fabricating lies, Dongfang Wan'er observed Ye Jiuchen's reaction. Since Ye Jiuchen had already lost that memory, she decided to distort the facts to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"Really?" Ye Jiuchen expressed doubt. Why would he be in such a hurry to find the Heavenly Snow Lotus? He felt that the reason was a bit far-fetched, but he still looked at Dongfang Wan'er, hoping to get more explanation.
"Absolutely true!" Dongfang Wan'er said with utmost seriousness, her expression so sincere that one couldn't help but believe her words.
"Hmm, I've been poisoned? What about An Ye..." Ye Jiuchen frowned and asked in confusion. He sensed his surroundings and found that apart from himself and Dongfang Wan'er, he couldn't detect anyone else's presence.
He thought to himself, "With my strength, I shouldn't have been so easily distracted. Could something have happened to Dark Night?" Thinking this, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
