After about 10 minutes, Wang Zhong woke up with a cough.
The moment Wang Zhong opened his eyes, he saw a young man inserting needles into his body. He froze for a moment, then discovered Qin Hao and cried, "Qin Hao, you …!"
"Don't move. It will be done soon." Qin Hao bellowed as he used the needles seriously.
After a few more minutes, Qin Hao finished the treatment and put away the needles.
"Where's Miss An?" Wang Zhong sat up and buttoned his clothes. The first person he asked about was An Ru.
"Uncle Zhong, I'm here." With Liu Yan's support, An Ru walked over with much difficulty. She had waited for him for a long time and was too worried to wait any longer, so she begged Liu Yan to help her walk over. If Liu Yan was not injured, she could have carried her, and An Ru wouldn't have to go by herself.
"Miss, I'm glad you're okay." Seeing that An Ru was all right, Wang Zhong breathed a sigh of relief as his body went limp and he sat down on the ground.
"Uncle Zhong, what's wrong?" An Ru shouted and wanted to see what had happened to him. Liu Yan had no choice but to use all of her strength to carry her, and when they rushed over to Wang Zhong's side, Liu Yan was wet with sweat and gasping for breath.
"Liu Yan, sit down and regulate your breath." Qin Hao hastily ordered.
"Yes." Liu Yan immediately followed his orders and sat down to meditate.
"Uncle Zhong, what happened to you? How are you feeling? I can't lose you!" An Ru grabbed Wang Zhong's arm and was about to cry.
Wang Zhong comforted her and smiled: "Miss, don't worry. I'm fine."
"Don't worry. He'll be alright. Just now, his meridians were blocked, and his veins were clogged, so he fainted. I have already helped him recuperate. He'll be fine." Qin Hao comforted An Ru and felt admiration for Wang Zhong. He was not only strong but also lucky. Although he was at the early period of the Inner Stage, he was not killed or seriously injured by an expert of the middle period of the Perfection Stage.
If the dwarf hadn't chased after An Ru and let him go, Wang Zhong would have died. The most fortunate thing was that he had met Qin Hao. If not for Qin Hao's timely assistance in clearing his meridians, he would have died from a blockage. Wang Zhong understood this in his heart, so he was very grateful to Qin Hao.
"Brother Qin, thank you for saving my life." Wang Zhong lowered his seniority and called Qin Hao his brother to express his gratitude. After all, An Ru called him "Uncle".
Qin Hao laughed, "no problem. By the way, we'd better get out of here as soon as possible. Can you walk? "
Wang Zhong panted a few times, then nodded heavily and replied: "Yes, I can." He stood up. Although his face was pale, it should not be a problem for him to walk.
Qin Hao nodded in satisfaction and looked towards Liu Yan. She had recovered a little after adjusting her breathing, and she could walk now.
The critical problem now was An Ru whose leg was twisted. It wouldn't be a big problem for a Martial Cultivator, but for her, an ordinary person, it was a severe injury. Qin Hao knew it. If she forced herself to walk, she would make it worse and even be crippled. Furthermore, the pain of walking was more than an ordinary person could bear.
"Chief An, your foot …?" Qin Hao looked at An Ru who was barely able to stand up and frowned. She needed someone to carry her to leave here. The most suitable person to carry her was Liu Yan, but Liu Yan could not do that now. Wang Zhong was also injured, and it seemed that the only one who could do that was Qin Hao. Must he carry An Ru on his back…?
Qin Hao himself was okay with that, but would she?
"I… I can walk." An Ru, who had a strong personality, did not want to be a burden to everyone. However, no sooner had she taken her step than she fell forward. When she cried out in pain, Qin Hao grabbed her quickly and didn't let her fall to the ground.
"Miss, be careful!" Wang Zhong let out a scream from behind. When he saw Qin Hao catch her, he heaved a sigh of relief. Then he looked at Qin Hao with a pleading look in his eyes, "Brother Qin, it looks like you're the only one who can help her here."
"Uh …?" Qin Hao looked at An Ru, "Chief An, what do you think?"
An Ru's beautiful face turned red. No man had carried her since she was a big girl. She felt a little embarrassed, but the current situation did not allow her to stay here any longer. Otherwise, she might get everyone killed.
They had been here for a long time, and the Dragon Group hadn't shown up, but it did not mean that they would not come no matter how long they waited.
An Ru lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Then if you don't mind, I'll say yes."
Hearing An Ru's words, Qin Hao jumped into action. They had to leave this place as soon as possible. Although Qin Hao was not afraid of the Dragon Group, the other three people were injured. If they were surrounded, he could not take care of everyone.
"Chief An, Come." With that, he walked in front of An Ru and squatted down with his back facing her.
An Ru's face was flushed red. After hesitating for a while, she climbed onto Qin Hao's back.
"Let's go." Qin Hao carried An Ru and led the way out of the pavilion. Wang Zhong and Liu Yan followed closely behind.
Liu Yan looked at An Ru. She didn't know why, but she felt a little bitter in her heart. Why the person he carried on his back was not her?
An Ru, who did not care what Liu Yan was thinking, felt a bit embarrassed. But then, she began to relax and pressed closer to Qin Hao's back with her arms tightly wrapped around Qin Hao's neck. She was exhausted, so when she had such support, she wanted to enjoy the feeling.
An Ru's posture made Qin Hao feel the softness of the woman and get excited from time to time.
Under Wang Zhong's guidance, they walked into a dilapidated residential area in the western part of the city when it was dark. This was the old city district of Changhai, where most of the owners of the houses had moved to the new district, and their houses were usually rented out to the foreigners who came to work or do business.
Wang Zhong had been living here with An Ru's mother since An Ru's villa was sealed. It was not that he did not have money, but he chose to live here to avoid some people.
After going up to the fourth floor of an old building, Wang Zhong shouted: "We're home."
They stopped, and Wang Zhong opened the door.
The moment the door was opened, a pungent smell of medicine rushed out. They could not help but wrinkle their noses.
"What's that smell?" An Ru who was still on Qin Hao's back asked curiously.
"Pesticides." Qin Hao knew what it was.
"Pesticides? "No, ma'am!" Wang Zhong let out a strange cry and rushed in as if he was crazy.
An Ru quickly came to an understanding as well. Her face instantly became pale white, and she screamed out from Qin Hao's back, "Mum!"
Qin Hao felt as if he were about to be deafened by her. He quickly rushed into the house with An Ru on his back without hesitation.
