Chapter 72: The Stone Chamber



Two big men emerged from the darkness.

Jane Ning used the same trick again, knocking down one of them as they reached into the basket to grab an apple. Turning right, she entered a stone chamber with a candlestick on the wall, a thick candle burning. Further in, two more men emerged and were knocked down in the same way.
