"Are we safe?"

Entering the small space, Mrs. Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief. With her mind relaxed, she could no longer suppress the injuries in her body, and a mouthful of blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

The gurgling sound kept coming out, soaking the clothes in a blink of an eye, dyeing the light yellow dress blood red.

"Mom, are you okay!"

Zhao Lingyun wiped her mother's blood with trembling hands. Today's incident had made her panic and she didn't know what to do.

"I'm afraid your mother is dying. Her spiritual energy is scattered and her energy and blood are gushing out. Even if there is a panacea, there is no way to save her. But don't worry, Lingyun. I will follow your mother's last wish, take good care of you, and treat you like a Taoist companion. No.

It will make you feel a little wronged."

Lin Qi took the opportunity to grab Zhao Lingyun's hand. A small amount of comfort when he was most helpless could make the girl wholeheartedly commit herself to him.

"Ahem, Mom can still hold on, but when she fell, she accidentally got a shock, and she spit out blood and she'll be fine."

Mrs. Zhao coughed a few times in a low voice, took out a small jade bottle from the storage bag, poured out a few pills, and stuffed them directly into her mouth.

After swallowing hard, my complexion actually relaxed a lot.

"Lin Chongfeng, thank you for your life-saving grace. Once I escape, I will definitely make the decision to betroth Lingyun to you."

Mrs. Zhao gave Lin Qi a thoughtful look. What she said just now was undoubtedly a deliberate reminder from Lin Qi.

"Even if Madam doesn't talk about this matter, Lin will not abandon you. It has been three years since Lin sold herself to the Zhao family, and only two and a half years have passed. There is still half a year left. No matter what happens, at least within this six months, I will

I’ll keep you safe.”

Lin Qi didn't mention a word about his previous escape, and Mrs. Zhao probably wouldn't expose it.

Lingyun looked grateful, and at the same time, there was a hint of shyness on her pale face.

After a short rest, Lin Qi led the two of them toward the passage in the dry well.

He discovered this dry well accidentally. There is abundant water in Qingshi City, and water is flowing from wells of the same depth. However, this well has been dry for decades, so Lin Qi concluded that there must be something fishy.

After consuming several earth-based talismans, I found the passage hidden under the ancient well.

A huge crack connects to the underground river. Following the underground river water, you can directly lead to the Canglan River outside Qingshi City.

There was a light stone lighting up the road ahead, and the three of them supported each other and walked forward. When they got deep, they heard a wave of water flowing, and they were close to an underground river.

"I discovered this place a year ago, so I made arrangements here. If one day I encounter an unavoidable crisis, I can escape from the city here."

Deep underground, even the ancestor of the Golden Pill cannot detect it clearly. It can be said to be the safest escape channel.

"Lin Chongfeng is really prepared for a rainy day."

Mrs. Zhao had to look at Lin Qi in a different light. A casual cultivator could consider his retreat so carefully, which showed that he had an extraordinary character. If his cultivation had not been stagnant, I am afraid that this person would have achieved something in the future.

"It makes Madam laugh, Lin is just greedy for life and afraid of death."

While talking, Lin Qi dragged the already arranged boat out of the cave next to the underground river bank and pushed it to the river.

The boat is small, just right for one person, but it will be a bit crowded for three people.

"I haven't explored this underground river carefully, and I don't know if there are any monsters. We should be careful and don't fly with weapons, otherwise we won't even have a chance to react."

When low-level monks fly their instruments, they need to control them with all their heart. Once something goes wrong, they will not be able to react at all.

Moreover, Mrs. Zhao is seriously injured at the moment, and it is even more burdensome to carry her.

Therefore, neither of them had any objections and had no choice but to bend down in the boat.

Lin Qi sat on the bow of the boat, controlling the direction of the ship's sailing, while Zhao Lingyun sat on the stern and was on guard, sandwiching Mrs. Zhao in the middle.

Although Mrs. Zhao tried her best to resist, due to the bumps of the boat and the weakness of her delicate body, she lay on Lin Qi's back unconsciously.

The blood that had not yet dried up printed two maps like mountains on Lin Qi's back.

The underground waterway is sometimes gentle and sometimes rapid. Although it is not too far outside the city, the waterway is winding and uneven, and even reaches a small place. The three of them have to get off the boat and walk, which unknowingly wastes a lot of time.

When I finally saw the light in front of me, it was already early the next morning.

"We are quite lucky. There are no monsters entrenched in the underground sewers."

Lin Qi breathed a sigh of relief. If he really encountered a monster, he would be carrying two burdens and might lose one of them here.

"Where are we going now?"

Lin Qi opened the Taoist companion panel and took a look. Still nothing had changed, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"Lin Zongfeng, can you escort our mother and daughter to the Hundred Flowers Sect? My second daughter has been a member of the Hundred Flowers Sect since she was a child and was accepted as a direct disciple by Water Fairy. Only she can protect us now."

Although the inheritance of a monk's family is simple, once a genius appears, he will be sent to a suitable sect for training. When he grows up and becomes a talent, he can bring unprecedented resources to the family.

If the Wang family can destroy the Zhao family in one day, it means that one of the elites in the family has returned from the monk sect, which has greatly increased the family's strength.

"The Baihua Sect is nearly ten thousand miles away from Bluestone City, and if you want to cross the great swamp in the Southern Territory, you have to take the Chamber of Commerce's spaceship. Once we show up, our traces will be exposed. I'm afraid the Wang family has already set up spies at the dock, not to mention Madam

The injury has not recovered yet."

Lin Qi didn't want to take the two of them running around. His attention was all on Zhao Lingyun now, and he eagerly wanted to see what benefits the Taoist Companion Panel would bring to him.

"What do you think Lin Chongfang should do?"

Although Mrs. Zhao has the seventh level of Qi training, because she manages a family of monks, she rarely has time to practice, and there are very few opportunities to fight with others. Her understanding of the casual cultivation world is not even as good as that of Lin Qi.<

/p>

"I think the top priority is to find a way for Mrs. Zhao to recover from her injuries quickly. We can find a place for casual cultivators to live and hide them. After the storm is over, we can change our appearance and go to Baihua Sect."

When Lin Qi studies and understands the skills of using the Taoist Companion Panel, he will naturally no longer have to carry two burdens with him. Once Mrs. Zhao recovers her cultivation level, his situation will change greatly. A person with a seventh-level Qi cultivation level will

The family monks have a foundation that is not comparable to that of casual cultivators.

"Mom, Lin Zongfeng has been in the casual cultivator world before, so there must be some basis for what he said."

Zhao Lingyun is full of fear for the future. She has poor qualifications. She can reach the third level of Qi training at this age only because of family resources, and her character is far inferior to that of ordinary monks.

"Is there a place to go for the offerings in that forest?"

Mrs. Zhao pondered for a moment. She really needed to recover from her injuries. Otherwise, if she only relied on Lin Qi when in danger, she would become even more passive.

"Before I came to Qingshi City, there was a cave in the Qingshi Mountains outside the city. It was a place where scattered cultivators lived in groups, and there was a mixture of fish and dragons. Let's stay there for the time being, and wait for my wife's cultivation to recover before leaving."

Lin Qi has already thought of an escape route for himself. He is very familiar with the Bluestone Mountains, and there is a market for casual cultivators nearby. With his ability, it is easy to support the two of them.

"Is it too close to Bluestone City? What if the Wang family notices it?"

Mrs. Zhao was worried. The end of the Bluestone Mountains was connected to the Bluestone City, and even the materials used to build the entire city were taken from the Bluestone Mountains. In her opinion, she was undoubtedly falling into a trap.

"Madam, I don't understand. This is called darkness under the lamp. The higher-ups of the Wang family may strictly order a search, but those at the bottom will only deal with it. No one will believe that the wife and young lady of the Zhao family will hide in a casual cultivator."
