After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

Lin Beizhen said, "The white jade Bodhisattva statue can sink to the bottom of the water, so it is indeed not easy for people to find it when it is hidden in the underground river."

Lu Ruo said, "So what if the white jade Bodhisattva statue is in the underground river? You won't find it anyway."

Lin Beizhen's tone was full of helplessness, "I've already said, I didn't come here for the White Jade Bodhisattva."

Lu Ruocai didn't believe it.

During this period, there have been quite a few people who have come to the village hoping to steal the white jade Bodhisattva statue.

"Then why did you come? It can't be... because of me, can it?" A faint smile appeared on Lu Ruo's lips. "Could it be that you've fallen in love with me?"

Lin Beizhen: "...No, don't overthink it."

"Okay," Lu Ruo said, "If you don't like me, why do you keep holding my waist?"

Lin Beizhen quickly let go, and even took two steps back as if trying to cover up the situation.

At this moment, the chaotic crowd dispersed, having broken through the bandits' defenses, and went to the village to find the white jade Bodhisattva statue.

Lin Siheng and Jiang Xiao had originally planned to go look for him, but at the moment they were secretly watching their cousin gossip.

Jiang Xiao muttered to herself, "If Xiao Bei wants to marry this guy, won't Fourth Uncle be angry?"

Lin Siheng asked, puzzled, "Why are you angry?"

After thinking about it carefully, Jiang Xiao realized that he himself used to be a local thug and a petty swindler, so he had no right to criticize others.

Jiang Xiao looked up and asked, "Siheng, aren't we going to go look for the treasure?"

Lin Siheng said, "No rush, the chief is still here, the treasure definitely won't get away."

Jiang Xiao nodded and obediently responded.

On the other side, Lu Ruo was quite speechless.

He had never met such an awkward man in his entire life.

She said she didn't like him, but then she eagerly ran over to him.

I don't know what he was thinking.

Lu Ru crossed her arms. "So what are you planning to do now? Aren't you going to find the Qian family's treasure?"

Lin Beizhen twisted and turned for a while before asking, "How's your injury?"

Lu Ruo said, "What's that hanging under your eyebrows? Can't you see whether my injury has healed or not?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he remembered that he had taken so much money from the other party and felt that his attitude was a bit bad, so his tone softened a bit.

He continued, "You can touch it if you want, I don't mind."

Lin Beizhen: "...You're a young man, be more reserved."

"What's the use of being reserved?" Lu Ruo pouted. "They've already broken into my village to look for that Guanyin statue, aren't you going to go with them?"

Lin Beizhen shook his head.

Lu Ruo simply didn't know what to say to him. "You've already come all this way, you can't go back empty-handed, can you?"

Just as Lin Beizhen was about to speak, someone nearby exclaimed, "There's a secret passage here!"

Upon hearing this, many people headed in that direction.

Lu Ruo curled his lips. He had finally discovered it. It was worth it for him to put on a disguise that could be seen through at a glance.

Lin Beizhen could tell from Lu Ruo's expression that there was definitely something wrong with that secret passage.

He asked, "Will they die?"

Instead of asking, Lu Ruo replied, "What do you care about their lives?"

Lin Beizhen said, "When I arrived just now, I spotted two wanted criminals in the crowd."

Upon hearing that it was a wanted criminal, Lu Ruo immediately perked up, "How much is the bounty?"

"It seems to be three hundred taels."

After a brief moment of surprise, Lu Ruo asked, "Then why didn't you capture him yourself and claim the reward from the imperial court?"

Lin Beizhen said, "It's troublesome."

This guy is such a spoiled brat, he doesn't even bother to make money.

After the group rushed into the secret passage, a bandit activated a mechanism, locking all the martial arts practitioners inside.

Lu Ruo suddenly asked, "Are you hungry? Do you want to come in and get something to eat?"

Lin Siheng, arm in arm with Jiang Xiao, swaggered forward and said, "I answered for him. Since the host has invited us, we must go."

Lu Ruo asked, "And who are you?"

Jiang Xiao spoke first: "We are his friends."

He pointed at Lin Beizhen.

Lu Ruo said, "In that case, please."

-----------------

The Blackwater Stronghold only had a few dozen people in total. They had already followed Lu Ruo's orders to lure this group of martial arts practitioners into the stronghold and wipe them out in one fell swoop.

Right now, some are hiding, some are hiding, and no one is seriously going to fight these martial arts figures.

Lu Ruo led Lin Beizhen and the other two through a maze of turns until they arrived at a secluded and quiet courtyard.

dusk.

While the group was eating, they suddenly heard an explosion.

How could there be an explosion?

Lu Ruo immediately stood up and headed towards the location of the explosion.

Lin Beizhen quickly followed.

Jiang Xiao was about to move when Lin Siheng stopped her.

He placed a piece of meat in his husband's bowl and said, "Xiaoxiao, you're too thin, eat more."

Jiang Xiao pinched the soft flesh on her waist. "Don't lie through your teeth. Where have I lost weight?"

Lin Siheng said, "She's so thin, you can feel all bones when you hug her."

Although Jiang Xiao was very puzzled, she still obediently finished eating the meat in her bowl.

Lin Siheng was satisfied. "That's a good boy."

Lu Ruo headed straight for a small waterfall to the west.

He never expected that someone in this group would know how to use explosives.

The reason why Heishuiyao is called a kiln is because it has many underground rivers and caves inside.

The entrance to the secret passage collapsed, causing the surrounding water to become restless.

"These people are probably going to die underground," Lu Ruo sighed.

Just as he was about to leave, there was another explosion.

During the explosion and rockfall, Lu Ruo was trying to avoid the rocks falling from the cliff edge but didn't notice where she was standing.

He lost his balance and fell into the deep crater created by the explosion in an instant.

He could have easily used his lightness skill to fly up, but Lin Beizhen also jumped down, and with the weight of the two of them, he couldn't.

Lu Ruo was speechless. "Why did you jump down after me?"

Lin Beizhen said, "I'm afraid you'll be in danger."

You are the greatest danger!

However, Lu Ruo didn't say this, after all, the other person meant well.

It was just a case of good intentions gone wrong...

He looked up at the cave ceiling; it wasn't too high, enough to fly up to.

Why don't he fly up first, and then find a rope to bring Lin Beizhen up with him?

Just as I was thinking of a solution, there was another loud bang.

The sound came from afar, and it looked like an explosion occurring beneath his feet.

This time, the two of them fell directly into the deepest part of the cave.

The cave is filled with jagged rocks, and the sounds of dripping water and the gurgling of an underground river can be heard everywhere.

Lin Beizhen shielded Lu Ruo.

Lu Ruo was unharmed, but Lin Beizhen had a cut on his arm.

Only a few fluorite stones in the cave were emitting light, and in the dim environment, Lu Ruo was unaware that he was injured.

Lin Beizhen didn't say anything either.

He simply asked, "How do we get out?"

Lu Ruo said, "The best and fastest way now is to fly directly up through the crater that was blown open above our heads."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the third explosion rang out, and countless rocks tumbled down, completely blocking the exit at the top.

Lu Ruo: "..."

Lu Ruo said irritably, "So all the bad luck has piled up on one day?"

Lin Beizhen remained calm. "So, how do we get out now?"

Lu Ruo succinctly said, "Find the exit."

After a while, Lin Beizhen asked him, "Are you cold?"

Lu Ruo shook her head, "It's alright, you get used to it and it's not cold anymore."
