A Time-Traveling Mishap: I Became an Ancient Nobleman

Chapter 151 Unspeakable Envy

Zhou Hanzhang didn't care how he got down, but only how long he could manage. "You think you can do it?"

There was no direct response from He Shi. He tried to stand up and found that his numb body no longer had the tingling and pain he had felt before.

He stood up and moved around a bit, then exclaimed in surprise, "I never imagined that the Emerald Flame would actually have such a function. This is amazing!"

I felt like I was about to collapse here, but unexpectedly, in just a short while, all the pain in my body has completely disappeared. Although I'm still a little stiff, overall I'm definitely fine.

He looked at his injuries again. They were large and small, but not too serious. It was just that his clothes were badly tattered.

"Young master, let me change my clothes first."

He took out an outer garment from his bundle and changed right there on the spot.

Seeing him change his clothes, Zhou Hanzhang felt a little embarrassed. Before they noticed, he turned around and put the little Cuiyan he was holding into the bundle behind him.

At first, Xiao Cuiyan buried her head in the bundle, rummaging through it for something.

Zhou Hanzhang quickly pulled its head out. "Behave yourself, don't move around, we're going down."

Little Cuiyan seemed to glance towards the cliff, then let out two howls at Zhou Hanzhang, as if urging her to hurry up.

Looking at the bottomless, dark cliff, with the cold wind blowing up from below, Zhou Hanzhang couldn't understand how these ancient people had managed to do it.

Even with her modern, scientifically-minded mind, she couldn't understand it, and in the end, she had to admit that the end of science is still metaphysics.

Little Emerald Flame seemed very familiar with this place; even while she was on top of it, she was already itching to jump off the cliff.

She quickly changed her clothes and deftly carried all her belongings on her back. "Young master, I'm ready."

“Then I’ll go down first. Whenever you’re more seriously injured than Gu Qingfeng, you can follow my lead. If you accidentally lose your strength along the way, Gu Qingfeng can help you out, and I can catch up from below.”

Neither of them had any objection to this.

This time, Zhou Hanzhang didn't tie the rope to her body either. She estimated that it wasn't much of a distance from here to the bottom, and that she wouldn't get hurt if she jumped down directly. However, she was a little scared looking at the bottomless cliff.

She grabbed the rope first, used the rock face as a foothold, and slid down in an instant.

When they followed closely behind, they found that they could still see Zhou Hanzhang at first, but as she continued downwards, she suddenly disappeared from sight.

He had been resting against the stone wall and hadn't seen what had just happened. Now that Zhou Hanzhang had suddenly vanished, he was shocked. "Young Master!"

They sped up and almost disappeared from Gu Qingfeng's sight along with Zhou Hanzhang.

Gu Qingfeng stared at the two people who had suddenly disappeared before his eyes. He was numb, but he didn't care about anything else. He gritted his teeth, didn't carefully lean his feet against the wall, and directly got caught on the rope, instantly sliding down.

Zhou Hanzhang was still somewhat shocked when he fell from the cliff into the flowerbed once again, let alone the other two.

When Shi He and Gu Qingfeng were both dumbfounded, staring at the sea of ​​flowers around them, they couldn't even utter a word.

He Shixian reacted first, "Young Master, this...this..."

He simply couldn't find any other adjectives.

"Fuck you so much..."

"Please use polite language."

Zhou Hanzhang knew they were shocked, and to be honest, his own feelings were not much different from theirs.

Moreover, when a person suddenly steps from the edge of a dark cliff into a vast field of vibrant flowers, the feeling is as if they have experienced a miraculous transformation from despair to ultimate joy.

At first, they may have been immersed in the suffocating darkness and fear at the edge of the cliff, tightly enveloped by the boundless gloom, with every step seemingly treading on the edge of nothingness, their hearts filled with uncertainty and despair.

But in that instant, as you cross that invisible boundary, a breathtakingly beautiful sea of ​​flowers comes into view.

The sunlight, like gentle fingers, softly parted the gloom, its warm and bright rays bathing the whole body, bringing unprecedented peace.

The fragrance of flowers wafts gently in the breeze, like the most delicate caress of nature. Every breath becomes exceptionally fresh and sweet, as if it can wash away all worries and fatigue.

"This is too shocking." Gu Qingfeng rearranged his words.

He Shi agreed, saying, "Indeed, young master is absolutely right. This is a completely different world from the one above. The person who can unite these two extreme places is definitely not ordinary."

"But why would he do all this?" Gu Qingfeng continued.

"Perhaps there is something hidden here that he doesn't want others to discover. Now that we're all down here, let's take a good look and see when the person you saw earlier should also be here."

Little Cuiyan saw this at that moment, and climbed out of Zhou Hanzhang's bundle, about to fall off her.

Zhou Hanzhang was startled and quickly brought the bundle to the front, holding it tightly in his arms. "Don't jump around like that, what if you get hurt?"

After hearing Zhou Hanzhang's words, Little Cuiyan obediently stopped moving and nestled in her arms, though its little wolf head still poked out and peered around.

"Look, there's blood over there," He Shi suddenly shouted.

Zhou Hanzhang and Gu Qingfeng immediately looked in the direction of He Shi's gaze, and indeed there were traces of blood on a flower.

"It must have been left by the person I was chasing earlier. If we follow this trail of blood, we should be able to find that person."

Although there wasn't much blood on the flower, upon closer inspection, one or two drops could indeed be seen every few steps.

"How about I put it down and let it help us search? Otherwise, if we rely on our eyes to search, we don't know how long it will take. Although the bloodstains are not that hard to find, it still takes some effort. But this little guy is different. I just discovered that its sense of smell is very sensitive."

Zhou Hanzhang held up the small emerald flame and looked at the two of them.

Since Zhou Hanzhang had said so, the two naturally had no objections and agreed.

Zhou Hanzhang put Xiao Cuiyan down, and Xiao Cuiyan immediately started to frolic, running back and forth in the flower field several times. In the end, it even brought a very distinctive flower to Zhou Hanzhang.

Zhou Hanzhang looked at the flowers in his hand and was genuinely surprised. "It's true that you're a spirit; you even know to bring me flowers."

"This little guy probably judges people by their looks; I've never seen it give me a single flower."

Gu Qingfeng looked at Xiao Cuiyan in front of Zhou Hanzhang and felt an indescribable envy and jealousy.

Zhou Hanzhang couldn't help but smile and handed the flowers in his hand to Gu Qingfeng, "Here, here, these are for you."
