Chapter 992 Internal and external troubles

"Come up." Ruan Yu quickly found the entrance to the cellar. She did not break free from the shackles and go down, but spoke loudly.

"Have they discovered us?" The people of Yujiang underground were all panicked.

"Are there any women among the Iron Cavalry?"

"What if it's not the Iron Cavalry? Don't forget, there were two waves of people just now."

"You can't go out. If you stay underground, you still have a chance to survive. If you go out, you will die!"

After everyone discussed it, no one chose to go up.

Huang Lao sighed. Why did he feel that this female voice sounded familiar? Now if he thought about it carefully, he couldn't remember it.

"I'm Ruan Yu." Ruan Yu introduced himself.

Mr. Huang is like seeing the sun through the clouds!

Yes! Ruan Yu! He had almost thought of this person in his mind.

After Huang Lao recognized Ruan Yu, he immediately thought of going up to him, but someone stopped him: "Don't do that, Huang Lao, what if this is a conspiracy of the enemy?"

"What kind of conspiracy could it be?" Old Huang resolutely opened the exit and poked his head upwards.

Ruan Yu was already waiting at the exit. When their eyes met, Mr. Huang was so excited that he almost burst into tears. "It's really you!"

"The spiritual girl is back, everyone come up!" Old Huang climbed out of the cave first, and then called on his tribesmen to come out.

"She is not a spiritual girl." Some of the Yujiang people were very concerned about Ruan Yu's identity.

"She doesn't have our Yujiang blood flowing in her body, so how can she be a spiritual girl?"

"How much trouble has there been since she showed up?"

"Say less! What do all these things have to do with the spirit girl?" Most people were smart people, and they immediately retorted.

"Ruan Yu is the spirit girl chosen by the Gu King himself. She is the spirit girl!"

"The High Priest has already found out about the worm cave. It was Elder Gu who did it. Everyone should be more polite to the Spirit Girl!"

The tribesmen climbed out one after another.

Ruan Yu looked at their skinny bodies and frowned slightly. Is Yu Jiang too poor to afford food? Why does everyone look malnourished?

"Mr. Huang, was the extinction of the worm cave caused by Mr. Gu?" Ruan Yu looked at Mr. Huang in confusion.

When the worm cave happened, wasn’t Gu Lao imprisoned?

There is no way it could have been done by Gu Lao!

Gu Lao, you are confessing for someone else! This person, besides Yun Ya, is no other than him!

"Well, let's talk about this later." Huang Lao winked at Ruan Yu, "By the way, did you fight with the Iron Cavalry just now? Where are the Iron Cavalry?"

After Mr. Huang came out, he looked around and found the ground was clean and tidy, without any signs of fighting.

But he heard those voices so clearly that there was no way he could be wrong.

"There was a cavalry, but I have dealt with them. Was it those cavalry that forced Yu Jiang to this point?" Ruan Yu glanced at the entrance to the cellar as he spoke.

Mr. Huang felt awkward for some reason, "Yes."

"After the Gu worms in the worm cave became extinct, we have been trying to create new worm caves, but without the Gu King, we have failed every time."

"I don't know who spread the news, but when people from the outside world heard that the insect cave was gone, several forces sent people to encircle and suppress it."

At this point, Huang Lao paused. Thinking that Ruan Yu was one of his own, he did not deliberately conceal it: "Without the help of the Gu worm, Yu Jiang's combat power has been greatly reduced. At the beginning, we could still resist. In the recent battles, we can only take shelter underground to reduce casualties."

"Hiding on the ground is not a long-term solution." Ruan Yu said.

How could Huang Lao not know this?

But, what can be done?

If they hadn't hidden, they would have been wiped out long ago. Maybe a few of them old guys could have survived, but without their descendants, what was the point of them living?

"Spirit girl, what should we do?" Several women and children hugged each other and looked at Ruan Yu helplessly.

"Although the worm cave is gone, the spirit girl is back. With the spirit girl here, she will definitely save us!"

Someone shouted, and the depressed atmosphere of the crowd suddenly became lively again.

"Yes, with the Spirit Girl here, we have nothing to fear!"

"Spirit girl, save us!"

"Crash!" Most of the people in Yujiang knelt down, and those who did not kneel were pulled by the people next to them to kneel on the ground.

However, they still looked dissatisfied.

Ruan Yu didn't care. She scanned everyone's faces one by one and said, "Since you call me a spirit girl, I have some responsibilities that I must fulfill."

When the sound fell, everyone's heart seemed to be touched by something.

It's a thing called faith.

"Let's move back to the ground and live."

As soon as this was said, everyone immediately opposed it: "No, if we move in, the enemy will attack and we won't have time to hide!"

"It's safer to live underground."

Ruan Yu also knew that these people had been living in fear for too long, and the fear was already engraved in their bones and could not be changed in a short period of time, so he didn't say anything.

After everyone dispersed, Huang Lao took Ruan Yu to find the snake lady and the insect master. On the way, Huang Lao hesitated several times to speak, but finally said: "Actually, you don't have to stay."

"Yu Jiang is already on the chopping board, and he won't last long, but you still have a chance."

"Don't worry, if the cavalry dares to come, I will make sure they never return." Ruan Yu smiled indifferently.

Mr. Huang just thought that Ruan Yu was just trying to make him happy.

This child is really kind-hearted. Even though Yu Jiang had never treated her well, she stayed with them without hesitation to face the powerful enemy together.

If Yu Jiang can really survive this catastrophe, he will devote everything to assist her for the rest of his life!

Mr. Huang made a decision secretly in his heart.

"Mr. Huang, can you please show the high priest...the spirit girl?" Mr. Chong, who was walking towards them, happened to meet Ruan Yu and Mr. Huang.

He looked at Ruan Yu in surprise. He never expected that Ruan Yu would come back.

"Didn't you tell her about Yujiang's current situation?" Old Chong asked Old Huang.

"I told her, but she still insisted on staying."

"Nonsense! The high priest won't agree to this." Chong Lao scolded, "Send him out now and don't come back!"

"Mr. Chong, you just said, what happened to grandma?" Ruan Yu heard what Mr. Chong said when he came out. Looking at his face, something must have happened to grandma.

Without waiting for Old Chong to answer, Ruan Yu ran into the room quickly, so fast that no afterimage was left.

The two men only knew that the living person standing in front of them suddenly disappeared.

After reacting, the two of them chased into the room one after the other.

"The high priest is fine. It just happened suddenly and there is nothing wrong with his body." Old Chong explained.

After Ruan Yu examined the snake woman's body, he did not find anything abnormal.

"She is missing one of her three souls and seven spirits." An unfamiliar male voice sounded in the room.

"who!"

"Who?!" Mr. Huang and Mr. Chong were sweating profusely due to nervousness.

A red figure gradually emerged in the shadow under Ruan Yu's feet.
