Chapter 70: First Acquaintance

The dim blood-colored moonlit night, the broken earth full of cracks, the fire all over the mountains, the stars in the sky are falling into the world, the struggling world is seeking shelter, the apocalyptic disaster will bring death to everyone, on the edge of the red-dyed river, two small figures snuggled up to each other and walked into the distance, that is the only place with light.

Lin Chen woke up from the nightmare, cold sweat spread all over his body, and he subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to protect himself, but he suddenly felt dizzy in his head, and his chest was even more dull, and he coughed instinctively, coughing out the water in his chest.

Then he opened his eyes with difficulty, and saw that the fluorite directly above him was emitting a faint light, and he just wanted to get up, but found that his body was completely difficult to move, especially the sudden feeling of weakness kept coming, and he woke up from the nightmare, and began to check his body after a while.

Looking inwardly at his body, Lin Chen found that there was no trace of true qi in his body, perhaps because of the excessive use of true qi in the torrent, not only the meridians were damaged, but also atrophied to varying degrees, except for the injury he suffered before meeting Ye Ruoxi in Qingyun Mountain, this time the injury could be said to be the most serious.

Just when Lin Chen was still distressed about his injury, he suddenly felt that his right hand was tightly grasping a hand with a little warmth, and after he moved it lightly, he still didn't react, thinking that he was still in a coma, which also made him begin to recall.

What he remembered was that he grabbed Shen Bing's hand before he jumped off the flood, and the two of them took off to the center of the flood under that huge force, and under the impact of the turbulent flood, they could only use their true qi to defend themselves, and finally they were both swept into a whirlpool, and after that, there was no memory at all.

Lin Chen didn't know how long it had been, he only felt that the time was extremely long, but after discovering that the aura here was very strong, he began to endure the severe pain in the meridians, slowly absorbing the aura around him, in order to restore the true qi in his body as soon as possible, and at the worst of all, let his body be able to move as soon as possible.

After all, I don't know where I am now, let alone whether there will be danger around me, and I can only deal with it if I recover quickly, and the two of them will be much safer.

In the process of recovery, Lin Chen found that his absorption speed of the surrounding aura was extremely low, and it took dozens of breaths to absorb a trace of aura from the air, and he was secretly anxious and sighed helplessly at the same time.

But soon Lin Chen was pleasantly surprised, because the trace of aura that he absorbed into his body was first completely absorbed by the meridians when it passed through the meridians, and then he saw an incredible scene in Lin Chen's inner vision.

I saw that a little cyan light began to appear from the meridians that absorbed the aura, and then gradually spread to other meridians, and under the cover of the cyan light, the meridians that had shrunk a lot began to gradually return to their previous appearance, and the blue light also had a healing effect on the injuries on his body, and the wounds gradually began to heal, and what surprised him even more was that after the blue light appeared, his absorption of the surrounding aura was also a lot stronger, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart and continue to cultivate.

After spending a long time, Lin Chen also condensed nearly twenty drops of true qi, and found that his body could barely move, so he endured the discomfort and pain from his body, and stood up with difficulty to observe the environment he was in now.

Beneath him was the ground paved with small gravel blocks, and the surrounding rock walls were also cold and damp, and there were many potholes of different sizes on the ground, and the glowing fluorite was embedded in the rock wall above him.

And with the light of fluorite, Lin Chen found that there was a thin stream not far in front of him, and combined with the surrounding environment, Lin Chen also had a rough outline and guess.

Perhaps after he passed out, he probably took the two of them to a dry underground river, the Dark River, under the ravages of the flood, which would explain why the surroundings were so environmental.

But soon Lin Chen frowned, because it was in the underground dark river, although it was very likely to walk in the direction of the water and find the exit, it was very likely that he would also get lost in it.

Because this kind of underground river is generally extended in all directions, with many different exits, once you go wrong, it is difficult to find the original location, but you don't know how far they are from the original entrance, if it is not far, it may be possible to go out from the entrance.

After carefully looking at the surrounding environment, Lin Chen looked at the people who were with him on the side, but just a glance made Lin Chen lose his mind.

What appeared in Lin Chen's eyes was a beautiful girl, the same age as Lin Chen, under the cover of black hair was a beautiful, pure, quiet and elegant stunning beauty, delicate nose, red lips like dripping cherries, and beautiful and smooth cheek lines.

As the saying goes: there are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent, who take care of the city and then the country.

In addition to such a description, it was difficult for Lin Chen to find other words to express the peerless beauty he had seen.

It's just that Lin Chen soon came back to his senses and looked at the stunning girl in front of him with a frown, he could be very sure that he didn't know her, but judging from what she was wearing, she was similar to Shen Bing who met in Pingshui, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

But now is not the time to think about this, although I can't figure out the key to the problem, but it is still important to save people, the two have been in a coma for an unknown amount of time, and only a quick recovery is the most important thing.

After moving for a while, Lin Chen wanted to move the stunning girl to a safer place, but soon Lin Chen reacted and found out about his negligence, took out a set of clothes from the storage ring and covered the girl's body, and then slowly picked up the girl's light body to prevent the wounds on her body from cracking.

After walking a short distance on the riverbed of the dark river, Lin Chen found a relatively flat stone, so he put the girl on the stone, transported the true qi in her body, and dried the clothes on the girl's body while transporting it to the girl.

In this process, Lin Chen found that whenever his true qi touched the girl's eyebrows, a small black phoenix pattern would appear on her eyebrows, vivid, as if it were real, and he couldn't help but take a few more looks, but once his true qi left her eyebrows, the pattern would gradually disappear and hide in the skin.

When Lin Chen was still thinking about what was going on, he found that the girl's eyes were looking at him, like twinkling stars and bright moons, but it was more of a gloom, Lin Chen saw this and hurriedly put away his true qi, and walked aside in embarrassment.

"Don't get me wrong, this girl, the kid doesn't mean anything offensive"

Looking at the girl who had woken up, Lin Chen was also incoherent for a while, and at this time, the girl also found the clothes covered by her body and the clothes that had been dried, and her eyes towards Lin Chen were also a lot kinder.

The girl found herself lying on the flat stone, although she had doubts, but she immediately found out what Lin Chen called her, her face couldn't help but change, she touched her face with her hand with difficulty, and looked at Lin Chen very ugly.

"Lin Chen, have you seen my true appearance?"

"This.... Uh, I did see it, if I'm right, this is the true face of Shen Bing, girl."

Looking at that face that was very beautiful even if it was angry, Lin Chen, who was helpless, had no choice but to nod and admit it, and looked at Shen Bing very frankly, without the slightest hint of offense in his eyes.

For Lin Chen's re-conversion of titles, Shen Bing could confirm that she had been recognized, but looking at Lin Chen's innocent and honest eyes, coupled with the days she had spent with her before, she was still quite sure of Lin Chen's character, and her heart gradually calmed down, but there was a trace of strangeness in her eyes when she looked at Lin Chen, and she smiled slightly and was no longer entangled, and she also observed the surrounding situation.

"Lin Chen, what kind of place is this, why is the light so dim, and the surroundings are so humid"

After observing for a while, Shen Bingxiu frowned, as if it was the first time he saw this environment, and began to ask Lin Chenlai on the side.

At the moment, the two of them are in the same environment, and if they want to find a way out, they need to work together, Lin Chen did not hide anything, and told Shen Bing all his guesses.

"Underground Dark River, I didn't expect to come to this kind of place for no reason, and it's going to be troublesome."

"Miss Shen Bing, I advise you not to think about how to leave yet, you were hit by a giant bird when you fled, and you don't know how to get injured in your body, so it is most important to recover your body first."

Hearing Lin Chen's reminder, Shen Bing also reacted and smiled at Lin Chen.

"Lin Chen, since you see my true appearance, don't call me girl, call me Miss Shen."
