The Return of the Demon

Chapter 475 Finding Emperor Xuan

After a night of cleaning, the collapsed palace was almost completely cleaned up.

More than a dozen city defense troops worked together to move away a piece of wood that only two people could hold when surrounded... This should be the pillar supporting the dome.

When the pillar was removed, it was discovered that there was a hole underneath.

"Master Hou, we discovered it again!"

Ning Chen heard the sound and walked over quickly.

Ning Chen was filled with surprise when he saw the hole in the ground.

He guessed correctly, there was indeed a place to hide here.

But I was even more worried.

So long? Even if His Majesty hides down there, will he still be alive?

Ning Chen held a torch and approached the entrance of the cave. The entrance collapsed and was blocked by rubble, but the stone steps could still be seen.

"Clear the rocks quickly!"

Ning Chen ordered.

Soon, the rocks at the entrance of the cave were cleared.

Ning Chen threw the torch down, and the torch rolled down the stone steps.

Ning Chen squatted down and observed. It was not deep down there, about five or six meters. The torch was not extinguished, which meant that there was air down there and it would be fine if people went down.

"Brother Zhuzi, take some people to guard here. No one is allowed to come near."

"yes!"

"Lao Pan, Lao Feng, Lao Chen, follow me down."

Ning Chen held a torch in one hand and held a dagger in the other.

Several people came down the stone steps.

The space below is not large, there is a straight passage, and there are stone chambers next to it.

Ning Chen stepped forward and pushed open the stone door of the first stone room. A chill hit his face, and there were actually ice cubes stored inside.

This is an ice cellar.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... My father-in-law..."

Ning Chen shouted and went in to look around, but saw no one.

He immediately withdrew and searched the second stone chamber.

The second stone chamber is the same, dark and cold, with neatly arranged ice cubes...with fruits preserved on top of the ice cubes.

"Ning Chen, Your Majesty is here."

Hearing Pan Yucheng's voice, Ning Chen trembled, turned around and ran out of the stone room.

"Old Pan, where are you?"

"This way..."

Pan Yucheng's voice came from the innermost stone chamber.

Ning Chen ran wildly and rushed into the stone room.

This stone chamber is empty and has no ice.

Emperor Xuan was seen wrapped in a quilt and made into a rice dumpling. Only his head was exposed in front of him, his eyes were closed and his face was pale.

Eunuch Quan fell next to Emperor Xuan, also unconscious.

In this situation, Pan Yucheng and the others did not dare to move at all.

Ning Chen couldn't think too much and stepped forward quickly.

He reached out and pressed Xuan Emperor's neck. He couldn't feel his pulse and his face turned pale instantly.

He sniffed again, but couldn't feel it at all.

Ning Chen didn't give up, so he pulled out a piece of hair and placed it in the center of Emperor Xuan's body. The hair swayed slightly.

Ning Chen was overjoyed and still angry.

"Still alive, hurry up...go and call Lin Wen and Meng Jianbai, hurry up..."

Feng Qi turned around and ran away.

Ning Chen checked the condition of Quan's father-in-law again and looked ecstatic.

Father-in-law Quan is also alive and can clearly feel his pulse.

Perhaps due to his martial arts training, Eunuch Quan's situation was much better than that of Emperor Xuan.

Suddenly, Ning Chen's eyes shrank and he removed Eunuch Quan's hand covering his abdomen.

Father-in-law Quan was injured. The wound was on his abdomen. After a simple bandage... Ning Chen did not dare to take off the bandage to check the condition of the wound.

Soon, Lin Wen and Meng Jianbai arrived.

"His Majesty..."

The moment Lin Wen saw Emperor Xuan, he burst into tears.

"Stop crying, save people first."

Ning Chen said in a deep voice.

The person is not dead yet. Where is your sister crying?

If you cry again, you will really die.

The two immediately set about checking the situation of Emperor Xuan and Eunuch Quan.

"Get some water quickly."

Lin Wen said.

Ning Chen pulled off the water bag from Feng Qizheng's waist and handed it over.

Lin Wen fed Emperor Xuan a little water, and then handed the water bag to Meng Jianbai.

He turned back and said: "Master Marquis, this place is too humid and not suitable for treatment. I'm afraid we have to change the place."

"Then what nonsense are you talking about?" Ning Chen hugged Emperor Xuan, "Old Pan, take Eunuch Quan with you...Old Feng, take Imperial Physician Lin with you."

Dr. Lin was injured in a fall. His legs and feet were inconvenient and he walked too slowly.

"I, I can walk by myself..."

Before Lin Wen finished speaking, Feng Qizheng carried him up.

Ning Chen carried Emperor Xuan to the ground.

"The city guards obey the order and seal off the royal garden for me. No one is allowed to enter or leave... Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"

"As you command!"

The city defense army took the order and left.

"Ning'an Army, follow me!"

There are many rooms in the royal garden.

Emperor Xuan and Eunuch Quan were arranged in a spacious room, and the outside was guarded by Ning'an troops.

Ning Chen issued a death order. Without his order, no one was allowed to come within ten feet.

Ning Chen couldn't help either.

He and Pan Yucheng were waiting anxiously outside.

Lin Wen and Meng Jianbai are doing their best to treat him inside.

Half an hour later, Lin Wen walked out with a tired look on his face.

"How about it?"

Ning Chen asked anxiously.

Lin Wen smiled and nodded, "God bless, your majesty and father-in-law are in stable condition."

Ning Chen was overjoyed, "I'm going to see Your Majesty!"

"Master Marquis, Your Majesty is not awake yet!"

Ning Chen hesitated, "What's going on?"

"Your Majesty has inhaled a lot of thick smoke, and being in the cellar all the time, the cold air entered his body... But don't worry, Marquis, your Majesty should be able to wake up tomorrow morning."

Lin Wen took out a prescription and said, "I have trouble with my legs and feet. I'd like to trouble Lord Marquis to have someone catch the medicine."

Ning Chen's face changed, "The capital is too far away, is it too late?"

Lin Wen was stunned for a moment, "My Lord, this is the royal garden."

"I know, what's wrong?"

"I'll go." Pan Yucheng took the prescription and glanced at Ning Chen, "Will the royal garden be short of medicinal materials?"

Ning Chen's expression froze...Yes, this is the royal garden, what can't be found?

Pan Yucheng brought the medicine back and Lin Wen personally boiled it.

Ning Chen held the knife and guarded on the stone steps at the door for a night.

At dawn, Meng Jianbai came out and told Ning Chen, "Eunuch Quan has woken up and wants to see him."

Ning Chen looked happy and went into the room.

Eunuch Quan was arranged in the outer room.

Ning Chen came to the bed and looked at Eunuch Quan's still pale face, and smiled: "Old Quan, you are very tough?"

Quan Sheng showed a smile on his face, "Thank you! Your Majesty and I believe that you will come to save us."

Meng Jianbai told him roughly what happened!

Ning Chen is the most important reason why they can persist until now.

He and His Majesty both firmly believed that Ning Chen would definitely come to rescue them.

Ning Chen sat down on the stool beside the bed and asked, "Old Quan, what happened? With your skills, how could you make it so miserable?"

Eunuch Quan sighed slightly and said, "After His Majesty went to bed that night, I stayed outside... As a result, I fell asleep unknowingly, and when I woke up, I was already in the sea of ​​fire."

"Now that I think about it, I must have been tricked by someone else."

Ning Chen nodded slightly. With Eunuch Quan's skills, it is impossible for him to fall asleep.

"What happened to those two charred bodies?"

Eunuch Quan said, "I woke up and found that there was a fire. I rushed in to save His Majesty... and I just ran into those two people who were about to assassinate him."

"Those two people were quite skilled, so I woke up and felt dizzy... Although I finally solved those two people, I was also stabbed."

Ning Chen frowned, "When you woke up, was the fire already very big?"

Eunuch Quan said, "Not only was it big, the roof was burned down."

Ning Chen's eyes flashed slightly. This was not in line with common sense... With such a big fire, why would the other party risk assassinating in the fire? Aren't they afraid of getting themselves involved?

"Old Quan, go on."
