It is precisely because of this that he lowered himself and spoke to Lin Jinghan in a negotiating tone. If this had happened at any other time or place, no matter who the person was, he would never have been so amicable in negotiating with others and would not have taken the initiative to make promises to them.
Upon hearing the bad news, Lin Jinghan's first reaction was to rush over to check the situation immediately. However, the lesson just now taught her that no matter how much she wanted to help, she couldn't act too eager.
So, she yawned again, sat up slowly, rubbed her knees, and said:
"Where did you dig?"
Things were urgent, but Lin Jinghan was still so slow. Sikong Zhan really wanted to pick her up, but when he heard her strong nasal tone, which made her look like she hadn't woken up yet, he clenched and unclenched his fists, and actually felt helpless about what he could do to her.
"Princess, we've dug close to the scene of the accident." People with high martial arts skills have excellent hearing. Although Tang Xun didn't come in from the door, he heard the conversation of the people inside clearly and took over the conversation very considerately.
"Okay, since the prince is so sincere and has promised me something, I will force myself to go for a walk. You go out, I want to get up." Lin Jinghan half-closed her eyes, yawned continuously, and rudely issued an "eviction order".
After Sikong Zhan left, Lin Jinghan did not waste any time. She quickly packed up and asked Shiqin to push her out.
Seeing Lin Jinghan act so quickly, Sikong Zhan was very satisfied, and the dissatisfaction that had arisen from Lin Jinghan's attitude immediately dissipated.
Sikong Zhan walked very quickly, and Shiqin pushed the wheelchair at a speed that could be described as lightning, but Lin Jinghan was covered with a blanket and sleeping with her eyes closed in the wheelchair, not affected by the outside world at all.
The rescue passage was dug out temporarily and currently only allows two people to pass through. The wheelchair cannot be pushed in. Sikong Zhan was anxious to save people, so he picked up Lin Jinghan and the blanket horizontally and strode into the passage.
Shiqin was ready to pick up the princess, but Sikong Zhan didn't let her. She and Tang Xun exchanged glances, each seeing shock in the other's eyes: the prince, who had always been aloof from women, actually hugged the princess! No wonder the princess had dared to challenge the prince and even "drive" him out of the tent. Could it be that the prince had finally come to his senses?
Because they could no longer work, everyone inside retreated, and now only Sikong Zhan and Lin Jinghan were left in the passage.
Because the passage was too narrow, in order to avoid the embarrassment of being hit by the mountain wall, Lin Jinghan had to curl up her whole body and stick tightly to Sikong Zhan, looking like she was nestled in Sikong Zhan's arms.
The first time Sikong Zhan hugged someone, it was a woman, a woman so beautiful that any man's heart would be moved. As a normal man, it would be impossible for him to remain calm in the presence of such a beautiful woman.
In Sikong Zhan's arms, Lin Jinghan felt the temperature around her drop a few degrees, causing her to shiver inexplicably. If possible, she really didn't want to enjoy this princess hug. "Well, Your Highness, let's discuss it. Can Shiqin hold me?"
"No." Sikong Zhan didn't know why, but he could hardly control the anger in his body, which made the temperature around him drop a few degrees.
Lin Jinghan was very cold, so she gently pulled the blanket over her body and covered herself more tightly.
As she did this, she inevitably touched Sikong Zhan's body. Because of the blanket between them, she didn't feel anything. However, Sikong Zhan couldn't help but stiffen and his body reacted involuntarily. In this cold passage, he felt inexplicably hot.
One of them felt cold and the other felt hot, both of them felt very uncomfortable. Fortunately, the passage had an end after all. Sikong Zhan's progress was not slow, and they soon arrived at the stone.
As soon as they arrived at the place, Lin Jinghan asked Sikong Zhan to put her down. They both breathed a sigh of relief. He supported her while she began to inspect the place carefully.
Trying hard to ignore Sikong Zhan's inquiring gaze, Lin Jinghan took out her instrument and examined it for a while. Finally, she gestured to Sikong Zhan about the shape and size of the stone. "Your Highness, our luck isn't too bad. Although this stone is large, it can be partially broken. As long as we dig a hole in the place I just planned, it won't cause the mine to collapse. Moreover, if my guess is correct, as long as we drill a hole in the stone, we should be able to reach the site of the mining disaster."
"How do we drill a hole?" Sikong Zhan asked, staring at the instrument in Lin Jinghan's hand.
"Chisel it open, explode it, or even break it open violently, as long as the destructive power is not too great and does not exceed the scope of my plan, it's all fine. This is something you need to consider. My mission is completed, and now I'm going back to catch up on my sleep." Lin Jinghan put the instrument away casually without any intention of explaining. She opened her arms, as if asking for a hug: Since Sikong Zhan carried her in, he must be responsible for carrying her out.
"Is it okay to break it open violently?" Sikong Zhan thought for a moment, then held Lin Jinghan in his arms with his left hand and placed his right hand on the stone.
The stone was motionless at first. Two seconds later, cracks appeared on the stone, and then the stone shattered. Sikong Zhan and Lin Jinghan retreated a few steps and stopped not far away to observe the movement of the stone.
The entire passage was filled with smoke and dust, and the unsuspecting Lin Jinghan was choked badly. Although Sikong Zhan was better, both of them were inevitably covered in dust.
"Ahem, puff..." Lin Jinghan brushed the dust off her body and looked at Sikong Zhan with disgust, "Can't you just send me out first and then take action? Do you really want to see me covered in dust?" I always feel that this guy did it on purpose!
However, Sikong Zhan seemed unaffected by the dust, nor disturbed by Lin Jinghan, and stared at the passage carefully.
Seeing this, Lin Jinghan felt that Sikong Zhan was probably just anxious and broke the stone impatiently, so she generously did not bother with him and carefully observed the situation ahead.
"Are you here to save us?" Before the smoke and dust had completely settled, a man's weak voice appeared from the other end of the passage.
Sikong Zhan's face suddenly turned pale, but because there was so much dust on his face, it was completely invisible.
He summoned his inner strength to suppress the discomfort, let go of Lin Jinghan, and walked quickly forward. Through the hole in the stone that was about the size of a human head, he saw a face inside with the light of the night pearl in his hand. "Tang Wen, it's you! That's great! Is everyone inside okay? Are they injured?"
"Your Highness?" Tang Wen was extremely excited. "Your Highness, don't worry. We are all fine. The huge rock above us blocked the collapsed rocks and saved our lives. Those who hid under the rock only suffered minor injuries and are not seriously injured. However, those who are further away are in a bad condition and need urgent medical treatment."
