Bai Ye opened her eyes.

It was pitch black as far as the eye could see.

The next thing I felt was the cold and rocky breath hitting my face.

"who I am?"

At that moment, this question arose in Bai Ye's mind, but fortunately, his memory gave the answer.

"I am Bai Ye, a..."

"A seeker on a cliff?"

Repeating the information given to him by his brain with a hint of doubt, Bai Ye slowly stood up from the cold rocky ground.

"Where am I?"

With the clarification of "self", what comes next is doubt about the existence of self.

What a coincidence, the brain faithfully gave the answer at this time.

"I'm in a cave in the middle of the 'Pilgrimage Wall. Cliff'."

Thinking of this, Bai Ye couldn't help but have deep doubts again.

"Why did I come here?"

This question is obviously more complicated. The brain does not give a clear answer at this time, but subconsciously drives Bai Ye forward.

"perhaps……"

"I should move around."

The strange yet familiar environment surrounded Bai Ye. Logically speaking, this unknown should make him panic, but for some reason, Bai Ye only felt a sense of peace of mind.

As if he was safe as long as he came into contact with the exposed rock.

After groping around for a while, Bai Ye came across a rock wall with sharp edges in the dark environment.

The ten fingertips of both hands touched the uneven wall, and Bai Ye's body suddenly felt a desire...

A desire to climb.

Frowning his brows, Bai Ye tried hard to put this desire behind his mind. Now he just wanted to know what he was doing.

"call……"

Placing half of his body against the rock wall, feeling the friction between his skin and the rough rock, Bai Ye felt a little calmer.

After a few minutes, perhaps my eyes have completely adapted to the darkness, and I can roughly observe the surrounding environment in the white night.

This is somewhere inside a cave.

Although I don’t know how I came to the conclusion, it may be memory, or it may be based on certain knowledge.

But Bai Ye is not ready to stay here anymore, because in a closed environment, if oxygen is consumed all the time, the air quality will drop and he will suffocate.

Not caring about why he understood these things, Bai Ye left the rock wall and walked towards the place where he lay flat when he first woke up.

There, something with an unclear shape was placed on the ground.

"Creak..."

His bare feet stepped on the rugged ground, and his weight squeezed the small pebbles between his feet and the ground, making a crisp or dull sound of popping and rubbing.

After reaching the spot, Bai Ye bent down and picked up the thing that he couldn't see clearly.

The first feeling is that it is heavy.

The touch from his hand told Bai Ye that this thing was made of cloth, just like the clothes on his body.

"clothing?"

Thinking of this, Bai Ye lowered his head and looked at his body. He didn't notice it before, maybe because he had already adapted to the clothes, so he didn't realize what he was wearing.

Stretching out his other hand without lifting the cloth thing, he felt the clothes on his body, and Bai Ye quickly came to a conclusion.

"the same."

The two are made of the same material, which means that the cloth thing in your hand is likely to belong to you.

"Then, the next step is to get out of here."

Breathing the increasingly turbid air, Bai Ye raised his cheek and sniffed the air carefully. He could feel a hint of fresh air.

Although he didn't know why, Bai Ye still dipped a finger into a little saliva from the tip of his tongue, and stood in front of him, even though he could only see a vague outline.

His saliva-stained fingers were more sensitive to flowing gas than his skin. Bai Ye soon noticed that a tiny bit of undetectable gas flow was coming from behind him.

"That's the exit."

At this time, the brain that had been silent for a long time once again gave the answer.

"Walk."

Wiping the fingers with saliva on his forehead, and transferring the direction-identifying skin from his hands to his face, Bai Ye held the cloth object tightly with both hands and began to follow the vague rock wall towards the exit he judged.

direction of travel.

"Pap..."

"Pap..."

In the quiet rock passage, there seemed to be only the sound of Bai Ye walking alone. Although the sound was not loud, it struck Bai Ye's heart, making him panic for no reason.

"If I make a wrong judgment, I will waste a lot of energy."

Thinking of this, Bai Ye slowed down the pace that was getting faster and faster due to panic in his subconscious, and thought about this problem carefully while walking.

"Physical strength is important."

There is no basis for this. This is the first thing that comes to Bai Ye's mind. Just thinking of the word "physical strength" makes him have the urge to take good care of him, just like the desire to climb when he touched the rock wall before...

…

It's so precious.

"No, I can feel the wind blowing from this direction, and..."

"If I don't try, I'll just be stuck in this passage."

Having made up his mind, Bai Ye firmly stepped out his legs again, but this time his gait was full of charm and there was no longer the panic as before.

Step by step, Bai Ye faced a dark rock passage and walked towards the exit he determined.

A minute passed...

Five minutes have passed...

Ten minutes have passed...

Although the road ahead was still dark, Bai Ye, who kept moving at a constant speed, could feel that more and more fresh air was blowing on his skin, and the heaviness in his breathing had also lightened a lot.

Evidence that he was close to the exit appeared one after another. Bai Ye tried his best to open his eyes wide, as if he could see the exit directly through the thick rock wall.

Finally, when Bai Ye turned a corner in the passage that was close to a straight angle, a semicircular exit with a dark blue glow appeared in front of him.

"It's the exit!"

There was a burst of joy in his heart, but Bai Ye did not run directly to the exit, because in his heart, since he remembered the creed that "physical strength is very precious", he has never relaxed his practice of it.

This persistence and perseverance are embedded in every move he makes.

With brisk footsteps, Bai Ye quickly reached the exit.

Stepping on a small platform extending outward from the exit, Bai Ye looked up at the sky.

At this time, it was the early morning, and the starry night sky was not covered by the dim light from the horizon. Seeing this scene, Bai Ye leaned on the rock wall at the exit and sat on the small platform.

After that, he spread the cloth thing he had been carrying in front of him, and Bai Ye began to observe it with a gleam of light on the horizon.

"It's a shoulder bag."

Lifting up the iconic shoulder strap of the cloth bag, Bai Ye judged the specific shape of this cloth thing.
