At this time, the guards were a little further away, and even Captain Hu, who was closer, could not come to the rescue in such a short time.
Just when Captain Hu and others' expressions changed drastically, Zhou Yang, who was closest to the girl, pushed her away violently, but before he could pull away, a falling rock hit him on the back, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. Zhou Yang lost his mind in an instant. perception.
The incident happened so suddenly that people had no time to react, and the mountain earthquakes continued, but their intensity became weaker and weaker.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Yang opened his eyes and suddenly felt severe pain all over his body, especially his back, as if a sharp blade was piercing him. The pain made him break into a cold sweat.
Gritting his teeth, he looked up and found that this was not a mine, but the house where he had first lived. There was no one else in the room at this time, only him lying alone on the ground.
"What's going on? I obviously saved that girl, but in the end, she was treated like this. There wasn't even a person to wait on me. I was so troubled that I was useless because I was injured. I couldn't be a guard, so I kicked her away. ! Damn reality, I’m blind!” Zhou Yang became angrier as he thought about it, and kept cursing.
However, his expression changed again the next moment, and he hurriedly reached out to touch his chest. Fortunately, the storage bag is still in my arms.
There was no one in the room, so Zhou Yang quietly took out the storage bag, endured the great pain and injected his energy into it, found the elixir bottle, took out an elixir and swallowed it, reluctantly sat up straight, and began to meditate to heal his injuries.
At the same time, in a palace, the girl in purple also opened her eyes. A white-haired old man guarding the side suddenly stood up and hurriedly called Miss.
"Uncle Gu, why are you here?" The girl rubbed her eyes with her little hands and asked in a daze.
"Miss, you scared this old slave. At last, nothing happened. Now that you're awake, I'm relieved." The white-haired old man said with concern.
"I remember, someone saved me?"
"Miss Ji has her own destiny. She was just too frightened and fainted. When she woke up, she was fine. I'll have someone bring food to the lady." The old man said.
"Uncle Gu, how is that boy?" the girl asked, shaking her head.
"It has been sent back to rest. It is not a serious problem. It will be fine after a few days." Uncle Gu frowned slightly. He didn't expect that the young lady would care about a lowly mining slave.
"But I promised him to be my guard." The girl muttered.
"We will discuss this matter later. I have to understand his identity in detail before I can make a decision." Uncle Gu's words were a bit perfunctory.
In fact, the girl asked Zhou Yang to be her guard at first because they were both of the same age and had similar cultivation levels. Being able to talk together was much more fun than those rigid guards.
She is an only daughter and has had no playmates since she was a child. She has always felt lonely in her heart. It is better to find someone of her own age to protect her than those stupid idiots.
When danger occurred, the young man risked his life to save her, which moved her a little. The girl was pampered at home and pampered by her elders. She could reach out for clothes and open her mouth for food. She had never suffered at all and had not experienced anything dangerous. So when the danger came, she was a little frightened and saw Zhou Yang vomiting blood. Immediately he fainted from fright.
Now that she was awake, she was very worried about the boy's safety, so she brought up the matter of letting him serve as a guard. She also wanted Uncle Gu to take him seriously and try his best to treat the boy's injuries. But Uncle Gu, who had watched him grow up, was very disapproving of this matter and seemed to reject the young man very much.
In fact, this is exactly what Uncle Gu meant. As an old man matures, he doesn't want an unknown person to be his escort, so he finds excuses to shirk it.
"No, I have to go see him. After all, he saved me. Don't let people say we are ungrateful!" The girl insisted on going to see Zhou Yang.
"You don't look well. You need to take care of yourself for a few days. I will let you see him after I investigate clearly. Be obedient, miss."
"Is he seriously injured?" Seeing Uncle Gu like this, the girl had to give up temporarily, but she was still concerned about the man's injury.
"It's not too heavy, don't worry, Miss."
"Well, when his injury is healed, you can bring him to see me."
"Okay ma'am."
Zhou Yang spent the entire day adjusting his breath and meditating. When I woke up the next day, I felt that the pain had lessened, but the injury was still serious.
He felt that some of his meridians were seriously damaged and it would take at least ten days and a half to recover. Fortunately, the black armored guard didn't find his storage bag, which contained some healing pills, otherwise the injury would have been more serious.
Three more days passed, and still no one paid attention to him, but someone brought him meals every day. Zhou Yang was free. He meditated to heal his injuries after eating, which was much easier than mining.
"That kid was seriously injured. Whether he can survive it depends on his luck." Outside the mine, two black-armored guards were talking.
"Miss just said it casually and forgot about it in a few days. It's a joke that a Kaiyuan Mirror Mine slave wants to be my escort!"
"Yes! Senior Sima didn't give any orders, so that's probably what he meant."
"I said, Junior Brother He wants me to take good care of him, we can't make a mistake!"
"Hehe, yes. It's better to die now to save yourself the trouble."
"Don't act rashly. After all, he is also a resident of the city. Besides, Junior Brother He didn't say he wanted to kill him. Now that the young lady is speaking for him, we'd better wait and see what happens."
"You said that if you don't stay well in the city, why are you going to this place where rabbits don't poop? Isn't this looking for trouble!"
"You don't know something. Our sect master went to Tu Yancheng and no one restrained her. She is like a caged bird. Why don't you take this opportunity to fly out!"
"That's right. The sect leader is out, and no one in this sect can restrain her."
"Our eldest lady is quirky and eccentric. She dares to do anything, but she can't help it. She fainted immediately after being frightened. If something happens to us, we will be in trouble."
"Thanks to that kid for being smart, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
"That kid just wants to be like a dragon and a phoenix. It's really fantastic."
"It's crazy to gamble with your life. If that stone hits his head, he will be dead."
"Wealth can be found in danger. If he succeeds in winning the girl's heart, he will make a lot of money. Not only will he not be a slave in the mines, but he may also become famous."
"We brothers must be careful in the future. It's best for the lady not to come to the mine. This is not life-saving!"
"hope so!"
In another palace made of large stones, Uncle Gu and Elder Li were sitting opposite each other, sipping tea.
"Brother Sima, in your opinion, how long will it take for the sect master to come back after being out?" Elder Li put down his tea cup and asked.
"That depends on the size of the beast tide in Tu Yan City. The level six monster is not that easy to deal with." Sima Gu took a sip of spiritual tea and said calmly.
"Oh. By the way, when I first set out, the deputy sect leader told me that if the young lady also arrived here, I would take care of her. But this happened when she first came here. I failed to fulfill my responsibility and asked Brother Sima to Forgive me!" Elder Li changed his tone and blamed himself.
"Elder Li is serious. You are in charge of such a large mine. How can you spend time with the young lady? She is too willful. But it's fine now, so don't worry. By the way, are there frequent mountain earthquakes here?" Sima Gu asked road.
"Not really, it's just a few times a year. Some are strong and some are weak."
"Oh. Do the mineral veins of the other two factions also often experience mountain earthquakes?"
"It will naturally happen if the spiritual veins are connected." Elder Li said.
Sima Gu was thoughtful, caressing the tea cup for a moment, and then said: "Elder Li is in charge of Wenfeng Hall, so he is naturally well-informed. I heard that the Three Saints Sect has made friends with another golden elixir master. Do you know about this?"
"Haha, I heard something, but the Three Saints Sect is very tight-lipped, and Wenfeng Hall hasn't found out the exact information yet."
"This matter is of great importance, and the sect leader also attaches great importance to it. I also ask Elder Li to find out as soon as possible."
"Absolutely." Elder Li's attitude became more and more humble.
"By the way, I heard that the deputy sect leader has gone into seclusion. I think there is a chance of breaking through the golden elixir!" Sima Gu glanced at Elder Li, his sharp eyes flashing away.
"When I set out, I heard that I had just retreated and there should be a high chance of success." The elder seemed not to notice at all and nodded lightly.
"Haha! Then I wish the deputy sect master all the best and achieve great success!" Sima Gu said with a smile.
Five more days later, Zhou Yang slowly opened his eyes.
He tried to use his energy, and when it flowed through the damaged meridians, he felt bursts of pain, but it was much better than before.
"This ungrateful girl has caused this young master to suffer so much!" Zhou Yang couldn't help cursing again.
At this time, footsteps were heard outside, and then the door was pushed open, revealing a graceful figure, followed by two black-armored guards.
The girl turned back and said coldly: "Have you given him the healing elixir?"
"This..." The black-armored guard squeaked.
"Get out!" the girl yelled angrily.
The two black-armored guards hesitated for a moment, bowed their heads and exited the room.
"They didn't tell me where you were, but I found you myself!" The girl turned her head and said crisply.
"Just scold someone and someone!" Zhou Yang raised his eyes and cursed in his heart.
"How are you? Are you healed? Didn't they give you Biling Pill?"
"No." Zhou Yang said coldly.
"These disobedient bastards! Here, this is the elixir." The girl cursed, then stretched out her slender white arms, spread her onion-like jade fingers, and a green elixir appeared in her palm.
"I don't dare." Zhou Yang didn't give her a good look and didn't take the pill.
"Afraid of being poisonous? You saved my life, why did I harm you!" The girl said coquettishly, and then said: "Oh, I understand. Are you angry that I haven't seen you for so long?"
"Don't dare, you are a young lady, I am just a humble mine slave." Zhou Yang said firmly.
"I told you, you are a guard, not a mine slave anymore!" The girl was also angry. She had never been so humble to anyone.
"What you say doesn't count!" Zhou Yang's heart moved, but he still said forcefully.
"You!" The girl was so angry that she raised her arms instantly.
Zhou Yang was indifferent to this.
"Oh, who made you my savior!" Seeing him like this, the girl's annoyance disappeared a lot. She put down her arms, sighed softly, and said: "I was so scared that I fell asleep for a whole day. , maybe longer than your coma. I can't even see blood, and I faint when I see blood. Zhou Yang, thank you for saving me!" After that, she handed over the elixir again.
