Chapter 92
When An Qingchen hurried to the mouth of the mine, Zhou Xiao was already there, his hands were stained with a black powder found at the mouth of the mine, and his face was solemn. Qingchen approached, Zhou Xiao blocked his arm and said, "Don't get close, this thing is dangerous." ”
Qingchen had to look at it from afar, and then stood in place, waiting for Zhou Xiao's orders. Although Qingchen has a lot of opinions about Zhou Xiao on weekdays, this matter is very important, and only he has the ability to deal with it.
I saw Zhou Xiao instructing Fu Tianling: "Investigate thoroughly!" Fu Tianling immediately took the order and left. Zhou Xiao walked up to An Qingchen and asked, "What do you think about this matter?" ”
It's rare that this megalomaniac actually came to ask her what she thinks. Qingchen thought for a moment and said: "The jade mine is a remote place, not to mention that the official mine is also guarded on weekdays, and ordinary people can't enter it. The collapse of the official mine occurred three days ago, and as long as you ask the people who have been in and out of the official mine before the collapse, you may be able to find some clues. ”
"That's exactly what I was thinking. According to my guess, if someone really intends to bomb the mine, this person is probably also a familiar person, so he will relax his vigilance. ”
"Someone familiar? Who could it be? ”
Zhou Xiao frowned and shook his head: "I don't know." ”
At this moment, there was a burst of cheers from the mine, and an officer and soldier came to report, as soon as a hole was dug at the mine, Qingchen and Zhou Xiao immediately stepped forward to check, and found that a hole had indeed been dug, and when they looked inside, it was dark. It's just that the hole is too much, and it can only allow a thin woman to get into. Qingchen raised his foot and was about to drill in, but Zhou Xiao grabbed her and said angrily: "What are you doing?" ”
Qingchen said: "Don't stop me, it's true that this is an official mine, but this mine is currently operated by the Mo family, and if something happens, the Mo family will naturally bear it, and I am the only person left in the Mo family......"
"I won't allow it!"
Qingchen broke free of his hand and quickly squeezed into the hole. Zhou Xiao looked at his empty hands, his expression was slightly furled, and then he ordered loudly, "Keep digging." ”
The officers and soldiers began to dig hard again with spades and shovels until the hole was large enough for Zhou Xiao to enter, and Zhou Xiao also took a sharp step into the cave. The accompanying soldiers immediately followed......
Qingchen gradually adjusted to the darkness in the cave, and she looked far away, and found that there was a collapse not far away, and there was a pile of rocks and mud. Qingchen struggled to jump over, but the mound was too high, the jump was too light, the jump was too heavy and he was afraid of hitting the mine, just when he hesitated, he saw the shadow in front of him, Qingchen looked at it, it seemed to be Zhou Xiao, and immediately shouted: "Zhou Xiao!?" Why did you come in too? ”
As soon as he heard Qingchen's voice, Zhou Xiao's hanging heart finally let go, but then he said angrily: "You woman, why do you always have to be strong at critical moments." ”
Qingchen shrank his head and said: "Among these people at the door, you and I are slightly higher in martial arts, and at this time, the entrance to the cave has just been dug up, and it is not easy for too many people to come in, and the emperor is the Ninety-Five, so he can't take this risk." And I'm just a woman, so it's okay to die. ”
"Shut up! Have you forgotten your identity, the emperor is the honor of the Ninety-Five, isn't the queen? ”
Qingchen felt that he was at a loss, so he had to lower his voice and said, "Okay, I've come here, let's hurry up and dig up this pile of soil." Your people should bring tools. ”
Zhou Xiao sighed and said, "Dig!" "What can be done when you meet such a brutal queen.
After digging for nearly an hour, everyone finally dug a gap in the mound, but the gap is not stable, if there are too many people who pass through guò, I am afraid that there is a danger of collapse, Zhou Xiao groaned slightly, and said: "Deputy general, come in with me, and the rest of the people stay here!" ”
When Qingchen heard this, he said, "Zhou Xiao, I'll go with you!" ”
"An Qingchen, you give me a good stay."
"Zhou Xiao, you are the emperor, I am the queen, husband and wife are one, how can I let you go alone, it's a big deal to die together!"
Zhou Xiao was stunned for a moment, his heart tightened, he hesitated for a while, and said: "The deputy general will stay and lead everyone to continue digging, and An Qingchen will go with me." ”
No one dared to disobey Zhou Xiao's order, and although everyone felt that it was very inappropriate to let the emperor and the queen go on an adventure together, they did not dare to raise objections.
Zhou Xiao cautiously and slowly stepped over the mound, and after that, he reached out and motioned for An Qingchen to put his hand on his. Qingchen is not restrained, it is at this time, she can't take care of it, as soon as she puts her hand on his hand, Zhou Xiao immediately pulls hard, and pulls An Qingchen to the deeper part of the jade mine.
The two of them slowly moved forward along the mine wall, due to the obstruction of the mound, there was hardly a trace of light inside, Qingchen could only see the situation in front of him with his keen senses, and Zhou Xiao was also relying on his strong martial arts.
Walking and walking, An Qingchen suddenly stumbled, as if she had tripped over something, she looked down and saw that it was dark, she immediately stopped Zhou Xiao in front of her and said, "Zhou Xiao, have you noticed that there seems to be something under your feet?" ”
Zhou Xiao turned his head, slowly approached An Qingchen, slowly squatted down again, stretched out his hand to touch the ground, and suddenly, he touched a soft thing, which seemed to have a dead temperature. Coming right away: "Probably miners." ”
Qingchen was happy in his heart, it seemed that he was not far from the place where everyone was trapped, but this person didn't know if he was still alive.
Zhou Xiao slowly touched his face, sniffed, and said to An Qingchen: "I'm still alive, but I'm angry." Do you have water with you, feed him to drink? ”
Qingchen hurriedly untied the kettle on his body, held up his head, and slowly poured it into him, the man gradually regained consciousness, and the first thing he said when he woke up was: "They ...... They're right in front ......."
"Okay, let's go right away, you rest here for a while, and soon there will be officers and soldiers to carry you out of the cave."
The man nodded slightly, Qingchen flattened him, and continued to move forward with Zhou Xiao.
After walking for nearly half an hour, just when Qingchen was desperate, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of him, all of them were sitting against the wall, not knowing whether they were dead or alive, Qingchen counted, a total of six people, plus one person outside, exactly seven people. Qingchen took out the water belt and fed them one by one to drink, although I don't know if there is still hope for these people, Qingchen still didn't pull any of them. While feeding the water, he said: "Don't be afraid, the emperor has come to save you, you must hold on, the officers and soldiers will arrive soon, and they will definitely save you out." ”
Zhou Xiao also squatted down together to convey true qi to the injured person. Qingchen picked up another person and was about to feed the water, and found that this person was Old Man Han, and immediately called: "Uncle Han, Uncle Han, we are here to save you, you drink water, drink water." ”
Old man Han seemed to hear Qingchen's words, opened his mouth slightly, Qingchen slowly poured the water into his mouth, three mouthfuls of water, he slowly opened his eyes, and he couldn't see the person who came clearly in the dark, but he still recognized Qingchen's voice, and knew that the person who came was the current emperor and An Qingchen, and suddenly burst into tears: "Benefactor...... You are really Han Laohan's benefactor......"
