Chapter 120 Pregnancy 3 A dark shadow suddenly flew up from behind the fire...
Su He felt Bai Chen's strong hug.
I also felt the trembling of his body and the burning of the blood he spat out.
The blood spurted out over her shoulder, wetting the mud in front of her and the hem of her skirt.
Her mind went blank for a moment, then she turned around and supported Bai Chen who was about to fall to the ground.
Bai Chen's face was covered in blood. He weakly called out "Sister" and closed his eyes forever.
——Those clear and melancholy eyes are gone forever.
Su He shed tears and called out with a choked voice: "Bai Chen, Bai Chen..."
The air was silent for a moment.
Fang Yichen gasped, secretly glad that the person who died was not Su He.
Bai Jinan stood there in a daze, his arms still in the posture used when casting a spell, but the force of his palm wind was almost zero.
He couldn't believe his eyes, couldn't believe that his grandson would die for someone else without hesitation.
He spent so much time and effort to protect his grandson's life, but to his surprise, everything was in vain.
Bai Jinan cried out in pain, "Chen'er!" and quickly stopped his moves. He stepped forward, pushed Su He away, bent down, and hugged Bai Chen in his arms.
He called out "Chen'er" again and again, his tone sad and shrill, tears streaming down his face.
But Bai Chen had already fallen silent and could no longer answer him.
The atmosphere in the cave suddenly dropped to freezing point.
Su He was also filled with grief and anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "If you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?"
Bai Jinan stopped crying when he heard this, but did not respond to Su He.
He took out a clean towel from his sleeve, carefully wiped the blood off Bai Chen's face, then meticulously straightened his collar and clothes, and finally gently laid his body flat on the mud floor in the cave.
He looked at his grandson with loving eyes, just as he had looked at himself sleeping on the stone bed.
He murmured, "Don't worry, Chen'er. Grandfather will never let your death be in vain."
He choked up and said, "Even if it means we all die, I will definitely avenge you."
Bai Jinan stood up after he finished speaking and looked at Su He, his eyes filled with cruelty. "I have made countless plans for this grandson, but I never thought he would die because of you. Therefore, I have no choice but to take your life today as a sacrifice to Chen'er's spirit in heaven."
Su He retorted coldly, "Your various schemes were not for Bai Chen's sake, but only for your own ambition. Besides, if you hadn't wanted to kill me, Bai Chen wouldn't have died protecting me. Ultimately, you are the one who killed Bai Chen. Ultimately, you are the one who should sacrifice your life for Bai Chen."
Bai Jinan was so angry that his face turned red, and even the white beard under his chin trembled slightly. "Since you are so unreasonable and unrepentant, I will kill you today." After he said that, he waved his palm and pushed towards Su He.
Fang Yicheng hurriedly jumped forward, stood in front of Su He and took Bai Jinan's move.
Bai Jinan warned sternly, "If Yicheng insists on meddling in other people's business, don't blame me for being merciless."
Fang Yicheng retorted, "As I said before, I will take care of this trivial matter today."
Bai Jinan snorted coldly, "Okay, then I will let the two of you go to be buried with Chen'er." After that, he swung his fist at lightning speed and attacked Fang Yicheng.
Fang Yicheng was good at light work and extremely fast, so he successfully dodged Bai Jinan's moves, then drew his sword and stabbed at Bai Jinan.
Although Bai Jinan is old and not as agile as before, his boxing skills are varied and deadly, and he was able to block Fang Yicheng's sword with his bare hands.
The two men fought from the single-hole melting cave to the outer melting cave, and from the ground to the cave ceiling. After a fight, the original wound on Fang Yicheng's body was stretched open, bleeding profusely, and gradually he became exhausted.
Bai Jinan's face lit up with pride. While attacking, he tried to persuade him: "If you are willing to stop now, I will consider sparing your life for the sake of our past friendship."
Fang Yicheng endured the pain from his wound while accepting the attack and replied, "Senior, there's no need to waste any more time. Just come at me."
Seeing that he refused to listen, Bai Jinan became even more determined. Taking advantage of his carelessness, he used his internal energy and pushed with his palm, hitting him in the ribs.
Fang Yicheng was hit so hard that he quickly retreated and hit the wall of the cave hard. He fell to the ground along the wall, spitting blood and adding to his injuries.
Su He hurried over and helped him up: "Mr. Fang, are you okay?"
Fang Yicheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head: "Don't worry, young lady, I'm fine."
Then he glanced at the stone door inside the cave and whispered, "You and your aunt should leave the cave quickly."
Su He nodded and said "OK".
Bai Jinan was already blood-thirsty: "As I said, none of you will leave alive today." After saying that, he swung his fist at the two of them.
Fang Yicheng pushed Su He away and stepped forward to take the attack.
Su He didn't hesitate and hurried to call Zhang Xiuhua, who had already fainted on the ground, "Auntie, wake up, Auntie, we have to escape quickly."
But no matter how she called, Zhang Xiuhua remained silent, as if she would not wake up for a while.
Su He had no choice but to place her in a corner first, and then open the stone door in the cave.
Normally, the stone door could be pushed open with a little force, but today, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't push it open.
Bai Jinan shouted loudly: "The stone door has been locked by me long ago. No one can open it except me." After saying that, he laughed twice and continued to attack Fang Yicheng.
Su He felt hopeless upon hearing this.
Failure to open the stone door means failure to escape!
Fang Yicheng saw that he was no match for his opponent!
Are they really going to die together in this remote melt cave?
Outside the cave at this time.
Xie Wuhen was leading a group of people in a carpet search of the mountain.
Due to lack of manpower, he even spent a lot of money to hire local mountain people to help with the search.
They have been searching non-stop for a whole day and night, almost searching the entire Fuzi Mountain, but have not found any useful clues.
Early that morning, a hired hunter accidentally discovered a large clump of orchids growing on the mountainside.
Orchids love moisture and usually only grow beside streams or at the entrances of melting caves.
Based on his experience, he deduced that there must be a melt hole nearby, so he hurried to report it.
After hearing the news, Xie Wuhen immediately brought people to the scene, and then arranged for people to search up and down. Finally, they found a melting cave on the mountainside not far from Lancao. The melting cave was connected to an underground river in the mountain.
He walked around the cave and found no trace of human beings, but the cave was fully equipped with daily necessities, which clearly indicated that someone was living there.
Wu Sheng even picked up a man's outer robe and shook it, then asked in confusion, "Boss, if a princess lives here, where did she get... men's clothes?"
Xie Wuhen had a cold face, clenched his fists secretly, and remained silent for a long time.
He thought, the owner of this clothing must be the person who kidnapped Chunlan that day with a black scarf on his face?
He wondered, what kind of man was that that made her give up everything and hide in this remote cave?
He asked hoarsely, "Have you found any women's clothing?"
Wu Sheng looked around and shook his head: "No, there isn't one. Could it be that the princess doesn't live here?"
He still had a cold expression on his face, and his emotions were unreadable.
After a while, he ordered: "Leave a few people to guard the cave, and the rest of the people continue to search outside the cave."
Wu Sheng replied "yes" and arranged for a few people to stay, while the rest followed him out of the cave.
But a moment later, Wu Sheng hurried over to report: "Boss, we found another orchid a few hundred meters away."
Xie Wuhen hurried to the place where orchids grew. According to his previous experience, he found the entrance to the melting cave behind a bush in just half a minute.
Walking along the entrance is a long and narrow stone path, at the end of which is a stone door.
The stone door looked solid and heavy, and could not be opened or pushed back.
Wu Sheng called a few people to work together to knock on the stone door, but the stone door remained motionless.
Xie Wuhen simply asked everyone to move aside and tried to use his internal energy to drive the stone gate, but it was almost ineffective.
Wu Sheng even leaned over the stone door to eavesdrop: "It seems like there's some movement inside."
Xie Wuhen frowned slightly: "What's going on?"
Wu Sheng replied, "It's faint... it sounds like fighting."
Xie Wuhen pursed his lips and ordered in a deep voice: "Go and bring over the gunpowder barrels we prepared."
Since we can't push the door open, let's blow it open with gunpowder.
Wu Sheng answered loudly "Yes" and immediately called a few people to move the gunpowder barrel.
At this time, inside the melt cave.
Fang Yicheng had been defeated repeatedly until he was finally hit in the chest by Bai Jinan. He instantly lost his soul and bled from all seven orifices.
When he came to his senses, Bai Jinan had already pushed him against the wall of the cave, tightly strangling his neck.
After a fight, Bai Jinan was almost exhausted and gasping for breath: "Although you are young, you are no match for me. I thought you still had some loyalty in you, but I didn't expect that you would ignore me for a woman. Then I have no choice but to take your life today." After saying that, he increased the strength in his hands, wanting to strangle him to death.
Fang Yicheng was still struggling, but he was exhausted in the end.
He gritted his teeth and murmured with difficulty: "You... won't... have a good ending."
Bai Jinan also gritted his teeth and replied: "No matter what the outcome of this old man is, at least, I will live longer than you."
While the two were at a stalemate, Su He picked up a stone from the ground and quietly approached behind Bai Jinan.
At this moment, she was like a gambler who had lost all his money and was full of murderous intent.
She has always planned carefully and taken every step cautiously, but she never expected to end up in such a passive situation today.
Even if she didn't know martial arts at this moment, even if it meant a fight to the death, she would definitely try her best to fight - she couldn't watch Fang Yichen die, and she couldn't watch herself die.
She wanted to hit Bai Jinan on the back of the head with a stone, wanting to smash his brains into pieces.
But Bai Jinan, with her pale face, was still very tall, so she would have to stand on tiptoe to smash it, and her arms would certainly not be able to exert any strength.
After thinking for a moment, Su He smashed the stone in his hand hard on Bai Jinan's cervical vertebrae, catching Bai Jinan off guard. He swayed and let go of Fang Yichen.
Fang Yicheng finally took a breath, then pushed Bai Jinan away with a backhand palm.
But the palm strike was not very powerful, and Bai Jinan could only take a few steps back.
Su He's attack didn't do any harm to Bai Jinan.
He touched his cervical vertebrae, which were hurt by the blow, and looked back at Su He, then at Fang Yicheng, who was no longer able to fight back. His eyes were filled with cruelty and gloom. "Alright, you are on the verge of death and still want to break free. I will let you two die now."
As he spoke, he suddenly stretched out his palm and exerted force. Wherever the palm wind passed, sand flew and the wind roared. Fang Yicheng and Su He instantly became unconscious. Their bodies hung in the air, circled around the top of the cave, and then fell heavily beside the unconscious Zhang Xiuhua.
Bai Jinan sneered: "Letting the three of you die together will also prevent you from being lonely after death." He gathered his energy again, swung his arm and used the Withered Bone Palm, pushing the three people on the ground hard.
Just as the palm wind was about to reach the three people's bodies, several loud "bang" sounds suddenly came from behind them, deafening and earth-shattering. At the same time, the stone door suddenly opened, and flames and heat waves rushed in.
Bai Jinan's power was greatly reduced due to shock.
He quickly withdrew his moves and tried to see what was going on, but he saw a dark shadow suddenly rise from behind the firelight, holding a long sword and stabbing straight at his face...
