Mu Qingcheng squatted on the ground and covered her ears. After the second firecracker sounded, the ground shook again.

"Nuannuan, come here quickly." Yun Qing waved to her.

"I know where the entrance is." He heard a lot of noise, which must have alarmed the people in the mine. "The entrance is over there."

Yun Qing pointed in a direction behind them. Without saying a word, Mu Qingcheng pulled Yun Qing in the direction he pointed.

They found the entrance quickly. Mu Qingcheng first saw many guards in black clothes and carrying swords standing outside the cave. Soon, another team of guards came out of the cave, escorting two people.

The first to emerge was a man in his forties, with a sinister look in his eyes. He was dressed in a rich, black and purple brocade robe, a golden crown on his head, and a jade belt around his waist. Another man, also about forty, wore a moon-white brocade robe. He had a scholarly air and a refined appearance, but his eyes were filled with calculation.

These two people were Kang Shao and Yuan Shi'an. As soon as Kang Shao came out, he asked the guards to seal the entrance of the cave with iron bars.

"Inform everyone, seal all the entrances to the caves. Do not allow the miners or people in the streets to come out."

"Yes!" Several guards went in different directions.

Yun Qing and Mu Qingcheng hid behind a rock. Mu Qingcheng was whispering to Yun Qing about the scene she had seen.

Mu Qingcheng: "...It seems there's more than one exit! What should we do? Should we hijack that Songhua ham? Or that boiled chicken?"

Yun Qing: "..." He actually understood who she was talking about.

Yun Qing shook his head. "Saving people is the most important thing. Let's not get into any unnecessary trouble. Let's go check out the other two cave entrances."

Mu Qingcheng felt that Yun Qing was right. Mo Yu was still in the other party's hands. Don't try to threaten the other party but be threatened instead.

Kang Shao and Yuan Shi'an did not stay at the mine. After making their arrangements, they headed towards Lao Chen Village surrounded by a group of guards.

After Yun Qing, Mu Qingcheng, and the others had left, they quietly made their way around to another exit. The exit was easy to find, as there were four or five huge iron racks propped up on the ground. On top of the racks, an iron pot was burning with firewood, and the blazing fire illuminated the entire area like daylight.

At this time and place, Yun Qing didn't need Mu Qingcheng to point out the direction, he could see that the place with light was the entrance to the mine.

This exit was locked with an iron gate, and countless hands stretched out from inside.

"Let us out, let us out."

"Open the door quickly...let us out!"

The people imprisoned inside were dressed in rags, with disheveled hair and skinny bodies. Their miserable cries were deafening.

Mu Qingcheng: "There are many miners here, they are all locked inside by an iron gate, what should we do?"

Yun Qing: "Let them out so we can rescue people during the chaos."

Mu Qingcheng also thought so. The more chaotic it was, the better it was for them.

"Then let's use firecrackers!"

Yun Qing tightened her backpack. "No, these people don't need to waste our treasures. Nuannuan, wait here for me. I'll take care of them later, and then you go open the door and let the miners out."

Mu Qingcheng hid behind a big tree obediently: "Okay, I will hide well, you be careful!"

Yun Qing's hand fell precisely on her cheek, caressing her smooth skin, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"Don't worry! They can't hurt me. You have to behave yourself here. No matter what you see, don't say a word. If you are scared, close your eyes. Remember?"

Mu Qingcheng nodded vigorously. She knew that if she was exposed, Yun Qing would be in danger.

Yun Qing rubbed her face hard again before he was reluctant to let go.

As he turned around, the murderous aura around him instantly surged, sending a chill down the spines of people dozens of feet away. However, he stumbled a bit as he walked, dampening his momentum.

"Who is it?" The guards drew their swords.

Yun Qing was not afraid at all and walked towards the light step by step.

"Stop! Don't go any further, or you'll be killed by the sword."

Yun Qing did not stop walking. The guard was the first to rush forward and raised his knife to chop at Yun Qing's head.

Mu Qingcheng was so scared that she almost screamed, but fortunately she always remembered Yun Qing's instructions and covered her mouth with both hands.

The moment the guard's knife came swinging down, Yun Qing dodged and disappeared. The guard only felt the wind brushing his face, then touched his neck and saw blood gushing out. By the time he realized what was happening, he was already dead.

Yun Qing had transformed into a shadow, shuttling among the guards. Every time he slashed with the military knife in his hand, blood splattered.

In the space of a cup of tea, a large area of ​​people had fallen to the ground, and no one could stand before Yun Qing. The sobbing and wailing were incessant.

Yun Qing was very satisfied with the results of the battle.

He put away his military knife, tiptoed down, and a knife flew up and landed in his hand. He pointed the knife at the neck of a man lying on the ground. Yun Qing reached out and pulled the man up from the ground. The blade cut his neck, and blood immediately flowed along the blade, soaking the guard's pants.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me, please don't kill me, sir."

Yun Qing asked calmly, "Tell me, where is the person you captured in the mountains a few days ago?"

The guard blurted out without thinking: "They are all locked up in the dungeon."

They? Yun Qing frowned. It seemed that Mo Yu wasn't alone. Could there be others?

"Where is the dungeon?"

The guard pointed underground: "It's at the bottom of the mine."

Yun Qing thought that he could keep this person as a guide and it would not be too late to deal with him after finding Mo Yu.

"Nuannuan!" he called out behind him.

"Here I am, here I am..."

Mu Qingcheng came over without waiting for Yun Qing to call her.

"Yun Qing, you were so handsome just now!" Mu Qingcheng praised generously.

Yun Qing felt relieved, fearing she would faint again from fright. That was why he didn't kill these people, otherwise, his blade would have already taken their lives.

He said to her softly, "Go open the door!"

"okay!"

Mu Qingcheng jumped and ran to the iron fence at the entrance of the cave. When she got closer and took a look, she was frightened by the scene in front of her.

The miners at the front of the cave were squeezed against the railings by the people behind them. Some of them were already deformed. The people at the back didn't know what was happening in front of them and were still trying desperately to squeeze forward.

Mu Qingcheng felt that these people had lost control, and the moment they were released, she would definitely devour them.

"Yun Qing!"

"what happened?"

Yun Qing carried the guard to Mu Qingcheng's side, and he also felt the breath of danger.

Mu Qingcheng told Yun Qing what she had seen. Yun Qing was also shocked. He pulled Mu Qingcheng to his side, pushed the guard in his hand forward, and pointed the tip of the knife at his chest.

"You go and open the door."

The guard didn't dare to resist and tremblingly went to open the door. There was an iron chain hanging from the iron gate, and there was a rotating wheel on the wall next to it. Turning the wheel clockwise would tighten the iron chain and lift the iron gate.

The moment the door was opened, a huge crowd rushed out. The person in the front was pushed down and was trampled under the feet of the people behind before he could stand up.

The situation was truly out of control, with people scrambling to get out. The guards Yun Qing had knocked to the ground were only seriously injured. They were instantly drowned by the crowd, and this time, Yun Qing didn't need to do anything; they were all wiped out instantly.
