THE FIERCE FARM GIRL HAS A SECRET SPACE

1182: Chapter 1182: With You (7) 1182: Chapter 1182: With You (7) "Where is the underground chamber?" Yang Ruxin furrowed her brows. "Over here." Fang Dehua personally led them to the center of the courtyard and stopped beside a rockery stone, which had been crushed by the Giant Python. Because the force was substantial, it shattered the ground. A careful inspection would easily reveal a hollow space beneath the area. At that time, the entrance had been cleared, indicating it was one of the exits as there were steps leading downward.

"I'll go down and have a look..." "Xinxin..." Gu Qingheng pulled Yang Ruxin back, "I'm coming with you." "But..." "If you don't agree, I'll follow right after you go down," Gu Qingheng was adamant this time. "Don't forget, I have bathed in medicinal liquids even longer than you. While I may not be immune to all poisons like you, I certainly won't be easily poisoned..." He had let her face danger alone last time, but there would not be a second time. As long as he was there, they would advance and retreat together.

"Okay." Yang Ruxin nodded and then took out a Medicine Pill and passed it over, "You should hold this in your mouth anyway." It was fortunate that the old man had prepared a good supply of pills, otherwise she would be equally helpless. After returning, she would have to ask him to make more Medicine Pills. Usually unnoticed, but in a crisis, these pills could save lives. Fang Dehua admonished the two to be careful, then handed over a lantern. "Big brother..." Gu Yao called out uneasily.

"It's okay, wait for our message." Gu Qingheng turned back and nodded at Gu Yao, then took the lead into the tunnel. It wasn't long before Yang Ruxin noticed something was amiss with the smell. Clearly, the poisonous gas in this underground chamber was much more severe than at Huichun Hall. If there were people inside, she was certain, they must have already perished. However, after a short while, they heard thumping sounds from inside, as if someone was hammering at the wall, and occasionally, the clinking of iron chains could be heard.

Gu Qingheng looked back and exchanged a glance with Yang Ruxin. In such a toxic environment, could someone actually be alive? The two hastened their steps, but upon reaching the Stone Chamber below, they were shocked, one could even say terrified, by the scene before them. The Stone Chamber below was large, blocked off with a barred gate, and inside stood a person, pitch-black and disheveled, with iron chains wrapped around their wrists and ankles, one end of the chains embedded into the stone wall. At that moment, the person was continuously hammering away at the stone wall.

From behind, it was impossible to tell if it was a man or a woman. Yang Ruxin swallowed hard; this person must be the herbalist that had been concocted, otherwise, they could not possibly be alive in such a toxic environment. "Don't be afraid." Gu Qingheng squeezed Yang Ruxin's hand. "I'm not afraid." Yang Ruxin shook her head. "I... just feel uncomfortable looking at it..." A person, confined in such a pitch-dark place, it was unbearable to even think about, and it made her hate that so-called Master even more.

Just as Gu Qingheng wanted to say something, the pitch-black person inside suddenly stopped hammering the wall, turned around, flung themselves at the iron gate, and stared intently at the two people. Both were startled, instinctively stepping back, and Gu Qingheng even wrapped his arms around Yang Ruxin to draw her into his embrace.
