After driving for more than ten minutes.
With a soft moan, Yang Zihan woke up and suddenly sat up, looking around in a panic.
"You, you were the one who knocked them down just now, right?" Yang Zihan asked, scratching her head.
“Yes,” Gu Yan said.
"Thank you so much. By the way, I still don't know your name," Yang Zihan asked again.
“Ancient words, the word for language.”
"Hmm, where are we headed now?" she asked, looking around.
"I don't know either. I'm just driving straight ahead along the road. I'll ask whoever I see. By the way, what are you doing in the Golden Triangle, a girl like you? You should know how dangerous this place is. You're lucky you ran into me. If you had met someone else, you'd be living a life worse than death by now," Gu Yan said.
Yang Zihan blushed upon hearing this.
"By the way, take a look at the one lying down, what should we do? He probably doesn't have much time left." Gu Yan pointed to Chu Xuan, who was still lying in the car.
Yang Zihan looked at Chu Xuan, who was barely breathing on the ground, frowned slightly, and looked at Gu Yan, saying, "Is there any hope for him? Our two families have a good relationship. If he dies, I won't be able to explain it to my family."
Gu Yan immediately stopped the car, placed his hand on Chu Xuan's arm, and channeled a wisp of spiritual energy to temporarily stop the bleeding.
"I've stopped his bleeding. If medical facilities become available in the future, he should be able to recover," Gu Yan said, looking at Chu Xuan, who was lying there like a dead dog.
"Thank you so much! You're amazing, even more so than my family. By the way, where are you from? I'm from D Province." Yang Zihan looked at Gu Yan and said, surprised that he had stopped the bleeding with just one touch.
“Oh? I’m from J province,” Gu Yan said.
"Oh? Then we're very close." Yang Zihan said with a hint of joy.
“It is quite close, but I have never been to D Province,” Gu Yan replied after thinking for a moment.
"Okay, then call me when you arrive in D Province. I'll do my best to be a good host and thank you properly." Yang Zihan blushed and handed Gu Yan a note.
"I will leave after I arrive in the Golden Triangle. Where are you going?" Gu Yan asked after accepting the note.
"Then I'll call my family later. An elder in my family is here right now, but we need to find a village or hamlet," Yang Zihan said, annoyed.
The surrounding area was desolate, with nothing at all.
After another 20 minutes or so, the area ahead finally became less desolate and appeared to be a small village.
Because this place is quite close to the Dragon Kingdom, they also know some of the Dragon Kingdom's language. After asking the name of the village,
Yang Zihan then made a phone call to his family. They then dragged Chu Xuan out of the car.
Gu Yan waited with her here for more than an hour.
"Why don't you go and take care of your business first? My family might have some issues and can't come right now," Yang Zihan said with a hint of weariness.
Ten minutes later, Gu Yan saw several cars drive up.
"That must be one of your men. I'm leaving now. See you again someday." With that, he got into his old van and drove off.
Yang Zihan stomped her foot, quite annoyed.
Gu Yan had already started driving in the original direction. After driving for more than two hours, the bread had run out of oil, and Gu Yan felt that they should be close to arriving at their destination.
So he got out of the car and asked a local villager. The villager communicated with him with difficulty and then pointed in a direction.
So Gu Yan had no choice but to run forward. Of course, even running on the ground required a speed no slower than that of a car, and in less than half an hour, he saw a small town.
Gu Yan also saw many people wearing tattered military uniforms.
This must be the territory of a warlord, Gu Yan thought to himself.
Just as Gu Yan was about to go in, he was suddenly stopped by the soldiers.
The man spoke to him in the language of the Dragon Kingdom, saying that he could go in, but he would have to pay five hundred Dragon coins.
Gu Yan frowned as he listened, but he didn't intend to refuse; after all, even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. It was best to keep a low profile until the investigation was complete, so he gave him five red bills.
The soldiers were immediately overjoyed, leaving Gu Yan speechless.
After entering, they headed straight into the depths and found some entertainment venues that resembled hotels. Although they were somewhat dilapidated, they were infinitely better than the surrounding villages.
Gu Yan thought to himself that Yang Zihan's family probably lived in a place like this. He would never believe that the family members lived in such a dilapidated place.
He then found a small hotel to stay in, and then opened his third eye to see what he could hear from the people around him.
I heard others speaking the language of China.
"That place is too eerie, especially for those who wore the black jade inside. They either died or were on the verge of death. I also heard that none of the people who went in survived."
"Hmm, how about we ask the warlord to help us scout it out?" another person suggested.
"I think we should forget about it. Those good-for-nothings are fine for ripping people off, but sending them to their deaths is unlikely. Even if they agree, they'll be asking for an exorbitant amount, and we might still suffer significant losses," the man sighed.
"Sigh, I thought there was some treasure here, but after arriving here, I found out that it's really a disaster."
Listening to their conversation, Gu Yan thought to himself, "It seems there's something going on here."
Wearing anything could be deadly, so he extended his third eye to other directions.
He took it back after more than ten minutes, rubbing his tired brows.
Finally, we learned about the situation here. It turns out that there is a warlord nearby with more than 10,000 people entrenched here. They usually plunder the land and then sell the mines to various countries. Almost every warlord does this.
Some time ago, a black mine was suddenly discovered in this large mine. The jade inside was something that no one had ever seen before. It was thought to be a treasure and was even auctioned off for an astronomical price. However, those who bought it and wore it either died or were injured. Even those who mined the jade at the time all died.
So Gu Yan decided to explore the black mine. After all, he was no ordinary person now, and if there was any danger, he could leave instantly. After making up his mind, Gu Yan went to sleep to recover his tired Heavenly Eye.
