Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

Chapter 584 You can’t survive either

A large amount of black powder exploded one after another, enough to shake the mountain.

It is difficult for people outside the cave to stand firm, let alone those inside the cave.

Nan Zhen was alone in the cave entangled with the soldiers. Although she couldn't escape, thanks to the intricate cave, she was able to use the terrain to eliminate many people.

She held the sword in her right hand and covered her injured arm with her left hand, but she couldn't stop the gurgling blood from the depths of her fingertips, dyeing her water-colored clothes red.

His body was also covered with wounds from being cut by swords and guns.

Nan Zhen leaned against the wall, panting, looking at her ankles, and smiled to herself.

Except for the incident at Mingyue Pavilion a few years ago, she had never suffered such a serious injury.

When the explosive was set off, she was still injured even though she had evaded it as quickly as possible.

At this moment, he is holding a sword, but he may not be able to kill the enemy.

The Huozhezi was thrown out by her, and the only thing she could illuminate now was the small night-glow pearl.

There was not enough light, but she could still detect gravel and gravel falling from the wall above her head——

This cave is probably going to collapse.

"Quick, there are footprints here!" The soldier came after him.

Then, there was the sound of Zhen Ruyan gritting her teeth, "Catch her, I will chop her alive!"

"This way, this way!"

……

The footsteps of dozens of people got louder and closer. Nan Zhen gritted her teeth and chose a fork in the road to continue walking forward.

He couldn't walk fast after being seriously injured, so he kept holding on for dear life. At this moment, the pursuers were coming behind him, and there was a dead end in front of him.

The cave is about to collapse, and there are ruins everywhere. The underground river is swollen and will soon reach the shore.

Nan Zhen stopped and turned to look at the pursuer.

Zhen Ru's face was ashen, her mouth twitched slightly, and she stared at Nan Zhen with eyes that seemed to scare her away.

He didn't expect that Nan Zhen had already touched the place where the black powder was stored, and before they caught up, he used a fire stick to ignite the gunpowder.

When the soldiers chased after him, the gunpowder exploded and most of his hands were broken off.

He secretly opened a cave here and stored black gunpowder, hoping to sneak under the nose of the Zhou army and catch them off guard. He would cooperate with Wang Chengmian inside and outside, seize the camp in one fell swoop, and take advantage of the situation to capture Baixiong Pass.

This is what General Ma is waiting for.

Now everything is ruined.

How could the Zhou military camp not hear such a loud noise?

Perhaps troops will be sent soon.

And the person outside the cave who has never been caught...

"You don't have to run away," Zhen Ruyan stared at him with a strange smile on her lips, glowing with cold light, "If you let me go without any help, I will leave your body intact."

Nan Zhen moved her wrist, "Master Zhen hasn't caught me yet. Isn't it too early to say this now?"

The sound of the water became louder, and the current was so fast that it seemed to have the potential to overwhelm mountains and seas.

The ground under Nan Zhen's feet became a little looser.

"Do you think you can still run away? I admit that you are very powerful and have killed many of my guards, but now you can't even lift the sword." Zhen Ruyan narrowed her eyes and stared at her slightly trembling right hand.

Seeing that she couldn't hide it from him, Nan Zhen stopped pretending. However, she did not follow Zhen Ruyan's words. Instead, she looked up at the top of the cave where sand and stones were falling continuously, "Master Zhen, this place is going to collapse."

"I know."

Nan Zhen: "Master Zhen, don't you want to live?"

"Hmph," he twitched the corner of his mouth with a hint of ridicule, "Do you think there is a chance of surviving even if I run out?"

The explosion of black powder was a major dereliction of duty on his part, ruining the hard work of such a man.

Even if he could escape before the cave collapsed and return to the military camp, he would be executed, otherwise he would just spend time here.

Besides, if Nan Zhen could be killed before death, it would be considered as a measure of guilt.

"That's true," Nan Zhen chuckled, adding a hint of desolate beauty to her bloodless face, "Your Excellency, you won't survive."

Zhen Ruyan stepped forward with a knife in her hand, "You won't survive either. The empress should be enjoying happiness in the palace, why should she suffer this fate."

He added, "But it's already up to this point, and I don't care what you want to do with the Emperor of Zhou. I'm just curious about who you are. You must not be a daughter of the Qin family."

He has never seen any official lady who has such ability and is well versed in the tricks of the rivers and lakes.

Only relying on martial arts, even a peerless master would not be able to surround and suppress so many people. Nan Zhen's body was filled with all kinds of hidden darts, poisons, and even poisonous insects, which really made him unbelievable.

Nan Zhen's expression remained unchanged, her eyes were quite soft, and she closed her eyes to suppress the trace of sourness in her eyes, "I am just a citizen of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

Zhen Ruyan sneered, "Stubborn."

Seeing the person approaching step by step, Nan Zhen suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

"Since Master Zhen will not survive after returning to Liang, why don't you follow me and surrender to Zhou Dynasty? You are guilty of Yu Liang, but you have made great contributions to Zhou."

Zhen Ruyan's previous words of admonishment to Nan Zhen now reached his own ears.

Great work...heh, that sounds really ironic.

Zhen Ruyan didn't want to say any more, so she just stepped closer and stabbed her chest with the knife. Suddenly she saw Nan Zhen's mouth slightly curled up, and she leaned back and fell directly into the rushing water.

"Your knife is too dirty. I would rather die in this water."

The water was turbulent, and Nan Zhen fell into it. Even her voice was submerged in the sound of water lapping at the shore, and could no longer be heard.

Zhen Ruyan took two quick steps and looked down. Where could she see Nan Zhen's shadow?
What did she just say——

Pavilion master? What pavilion master? !

"Hey! Hey!"

"This hole is really going to collapse!"

"Run!"

……

The sudden earthquake and swaying of the mountains caused the soldiers to become confused and scramble to get out.

The consciousness of survival that bursts out when a person is about to die can sometimes defeat reason. Zhen Ruyan said she didn't care about her life, but she couldn't help but rush out at this time.

During the pushing, only a loud noise was heard.

In an instant, sand and stones flew into the sky, and no trace of people was seen.
