Chapter 12: The Pursuers

I don't know how long time has passed, the two teenagers who survived in the dark underground cave, after encountering the curtain battle, finally saved their lives, and the curtain battle was also rescued by the two, and the injuries in the body were gradually repaired...

Time passed minute by minute, the light of the bonfire was no longer there, and the three figures who fell beside the ashes of the bonfire showed no sign of waking up.

The sun and the moon in the sky, after alternating twice, one of the figures took the lead in moving.

The first to wake up was Makuzha, and after five days and five nights in a coma, his fingers finally moved, and the flying beast that had been guarding him flapped its wings twice with joy when he saw this.

And this huge creature, unaware of its own pleasure, seems to have taken the life of its little master.

The stones in the cave were scraped by the wings of the flying beasts, and then fell with a flutter, and many of them smashed not far from Makuzhan and the others.

It was as if he was alarmed by this voice, and after a while, the eyelids of the curtain battle also opened hard, but because he was in a coma for too long, he tried several times and still failed. So, at the insistence of the curtain battle, after half an hour, the eyes of the curtain war finally opened.

The first thing that caught his eyes was the starry sky, and then he turned his head with a little difficulty, and found that there seemed to be two figures around him, although he couldn't tell the difference between friend and foe, judging from his current situation, he should not be an enemy.

Thinking back to everything before he fell into a coma, Makuzhan felt that he must have been saved by the owner of those two figures after he fell here.

After that, Makuzhan tried to move his arm again, and there didn't seem to be any other bad feeling except for some stiffness. At this time, what worried him the most was his dried qi sea, and after feeling that his whole body was not uncomfortable, he cautiously tried to probe his qi sea.

"Ha great! ”

The curtain battle roared secretly, but he didn't notice that the little starlight hiding in the deepest part of the sea of qi was exuding a soft cold power all the time, moistening his entire sea of qi.

Then, the curtain battle was about to try to sit up, and Lin Tong on the side also woke up at this time!

In the previous three days, he and the stone were almost not in a drop of water, and in the three days, he never dared to close his eyes for a moment, because he knew that in that environment, if he closed his eyes, he might never be able to open them again.

So he and Stone encouraged each other and survived for three days.

Three days later, after encountering the curtain war, drinking water and eating, Lin Tong put down all the support by the warm bonfire, and almost instantly, he fell asleep.

These two days were also the two days he slept the most soundly in so many years, no cold, no hunger, no wild dogs, and no rich children who hit them with stones while he was asleep, he even felt in his dreams that he was not the Lin Tong whose parents died early, but an ordinary child with a complete family!

The moment he opened his eyes, he knew that they were just dreams.

"Are you awake?"

Lin Tong's cold voice sounded, because the moment he opened his eyes, he happened to see the curtain battle struggling to sit up.

"Who are you and why are you here?"

Seeing that Lin Tong had woken up, the curtain battle asked with some curiosity.

"I should have asked you why the flying beast with you fell from the sky, smashed the underground space, and then fainted. ”

Lin Tong's words seemed brief, but they also made the situation of three people and one beast very clear.

"Underground space, I didn't faint when I fell, I fainted before I fell!"

The curtain battle smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and then, leaning against the wall, he stood up cautiously, although it was a little difficult, but finally succeeded.

Makuzhan suddenly found that after this time, his bones seemed to be stronger than before, because he waved his arm and felt a power that he had never felt before.

"Why is this happening? Is it because I work too hard and get paid for it?"

Makuzhan muttered in a low voice, but suddenly, Makuzhan fell to the ground again, because he still felt weak and dizzy.

"Drink some water, eat something, you shouldn't have eaten in days, no wonder you don't even have the strength to walk!"

At this moment, there was suddenly an extra bag of water in front of him, as well as some dry food.

"Oh, no wonder!"

Mu Zhan suddenly understood why he was like this, shook his head, thanked him, and took the thing in Lin Tong's hand and ate it.

Lin Tong also felt funny, he took his things and gave them to him to eat, and he actually thanked himself in turn.

Neither of them was a man of many words, so the night was spent in the midst of the eating of the curtain battle and the crackling of the campfire.

"I don't know where the two of you are going next, if it's convenient, I might as well give the two of you a ride!"

Early in the morning of the second day, the curtain battle hugged his fists at Lin Tong and Shishi, and said in a deep voice.

Makuzhan thought that since the two of them had saved their lives, no matter what the two of them let themselves do, it would not be too much.

But in Lin Tong's opinion, it was the curtain war who came down from the sky to save himself and the stone, and of course it was not good to ask him for anything.

So, the words of the curtain battle fell, and there was such an eerie silence between the three of them.

"Oh, we're going to the imperial capital to participate in the imperial exam, if you have time, just send the two of us!"

Shi looked at Lin Tong, and then looked at the curtain battle, and didn't understand what the two of them were staring at each other with big eyes, so he spoke for Lin Tong.

"Oh, that's a coincidence, we're on the same road, so let's go!"

When the curtain war heard the stone's words, he hurriedly spoke, because he didn't know how long he had been dizzy, in case the mother of the imperial capital came back, wouldn't the entire Cangyun Empire have to send people to find him, thinking of this, the curtain battle broke out in a cold sweat.

Lin Tong turned his head and glanced at the stone, as if that meant to blame the stone for being too talkative, and the stone also shrank his neck helplessly, who made the two of you stare at each other, and no one spoke.

The three of them turned over and got into the flying beast, and then flew in the direction of the imperial capital, but what they didn't expect was that as soon as they left, two strange figures suddenly appeared in the underground cave...

"Smell the smell, it seems like you've just left!"

A slightly feminine voice rang out.

"Are you sure it's the kid's scent?"

The other voice was rough and powerful, like thunder.

"Can't be wrong, don't you still believe my nose?"

The owner of the feminine voice was somewhat unhappy, but there was a hint of gloom in the voice.

"Since you're so sure, let's sniff it quickly, which direction are we going to chase!"

The sound of thunder sounded again, and the owner of the feminine voice stretched out his finger in a direction, and then the two of them turned into an afterimage and flew away into the distance.
