Chapter 57 You are planning for me

"Where is Lin Zhuyu?" Su Ying swept her eyes across everyone's faces again to make sure that Lin Zhuyu was not there.

Bai Shuang heard this and said, "She said she felt sick and went behind the rock in front. It seems like she has been gone for some time. Why hasn't she come back yet?"

Su Ying glanced at the big rock not far away and said, "I'll go take a look."

Su Ying quickly walked behind the boulder and called out, "Lin Zhuyu, are you there?"

There was no response from behind the big rock. Su Ying walked around the rock and came to the other side, but there was no sign of Lin Zhuyu here.

She took out a thumb-sized flashlight from her body and shone it on the ground. There was a row of shallow footprints on the ground.

Su Ying followed the footprints towards a mound in front. As soon as she reached the mound, she heard a mumbling sound.

She turned off the flashlight, drew out the dagger from her body, and approached quietly.

When she got around to the front of the mound, she found Lin Zhuyu still lying on the ground with his hands and feet tied.

Su Ying looked around and made sure there was no danger around before she stepped forward, cut the ropes on Lin Zhuyu's hands and feet, and took out the rag that was blocking her mouth.

"Madam, Madam..." Lin Zhuyu cried out and threw herself on Su Ying and started crying after she was free.

Su Ying looked at Lin Zhuyu, who wanted to hang on her waist, with disdain, and said, "Shut up, stand up straight and talk."

When Lin Zhuyu saw her, it was like seeing her backbone, and the fear she had just felt dissipated a little.

"Yes, just now, just now I was about to go... and suddenly someone rushed out and tied me up here... If the lady hadn't found me, I would have died."

"The other party just captured you?"

Lin Zhuyu choked up and nodded, "Yes, yes."

"Did you see what the other person looks like?"

Lin Zhuyu shook her head. It was dark and she was so scared that she didn't even bother to look at the other person's appearance. "But he, he doesn't stink."

Su Ying raised her eyes. If there was no odor, it meant that the other person was not a prisoner. These prisoners had been walking under the scorching sun for so many days, it was impossible for them not to have some odor on them.

"Go back first."

“Yeah.”

When Su Ying brought Lin Zhuyu back to their place, she saw a man wearing chains not far away standing up and looking towards her. The moment he met her eyes, he slashed his neck with a knife from behind.

Su Yingfeng's eyes darkened. She glanced at Lin Zhuyu, who was still in shock, and realized that the other party had taken Lin Zhuyu away to warn her! Moreover, they might have other people around. The enemy was more than she had imagined.

Su Ying narrowed her eyes coldly. She didn't kill the beast last night because she wanted to let these people know that she was not someone to be trifled with. Who knew that these beasts would become even more aggressive.

On the other hand, because of Wang Lang’s matter, Jiang Yang was unable to bring the man with the scar on the corner of his eye to Xiao Jin.

"Your Majesty, I noticed that those people were keeping a close eye on that man, and he seemed to be injured."

Xiao Jin knew without hesitation who had caused the man's injury, "I'll find another opportunity to strike on the way."

"yes."

"Leave a letter for Lin Kun, asking him to keep an eye on his surroundings to see if anyone is following him."

"I understand."

At daybreak, the prisoners woke up one after another, and after having breakfast, the team prepared to set off.

Su Ying hadn't slept all night. When she set out, she was still thinking about herding cattle and sheep, but she was driven into a small carriage by He Shouyi and his men. Wang Lang and Li Wanniang were now lying in the big carriage, and Tian Mu was holding the child and Sun Daniang were also in the carriage to take care of them.

Su Ying leaned against the carriage, feeling drowsy. She heard Xiao Jin's voice in a daze, "Su Ying, take off your clothes."

"Hmm?" Su Ying raised her eyelids lazily, "What did you say?"

Xiao Jin said with a serious face: "I just saw a centipede crawling into your clothes."

"What?" Su Ying sat up suddenly, stretched out her hands and took off her clothes, leaving only a single layer of clothing.

"I didn't see it anywhere."

Xiao Jin reached out and pulled down her clothes, revealing her thin shoulders.

Su Ying simply took off all her clothes, leaving only her inner garment. She looked around her body but didn't find any centipedes. She raised her head and glared at Xiao Jin, "You lied to me."

Xiao Jin nodded calmly, but his dark pupils fell on her shoulders.

Su Ying glared at him and was about to pick up her clothes and put them on when he stopped her.

"Xiao Jin, what are you going to do?" Su Ying seriously suspected that the yellow waste in his brain was spewing out again.

Xiao Jin took out a bottle of blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine from the bag beside him and opened it. "Your body is covered with bruises. Doesn't it hurt?"

Su Ying glanced at the bruise on her shoulder and said nonchalantly, "It's just a minor injury. It will heal naturally in a few days."

Xiao Jin poured the medicine into his palm to warm it up before rubbing it on the bruise.

Under his warm palm was a slightly cool potion, which stimulated Su Ying so much that goose bumps appeared all over her body.

Xiao Jin's palm was gently pushing and rubbing her wound. Somehow, the area he was rubbing gradually became warmer. The heat slowly spread throughout her body, rushed to her forehead, and even accelerated her heartbeat.

Su Ying frowned. Damn it, could it be that blood-activating medicine can speed up blood circulation throughout the body?

Su Ying felt a little overwhelmed by this feeling. She snatched the medicine bottle from Xiao Jin's hand, poured it into her hand, and then rubbed it on her body casually, "Stop dawdling. It will be dark by the time you finish."

She wiped it roughly, grabbed her clothes and put them on, then found a seat in the carriage farthest away from Xiao Jin and leaned against them.

Xiao Jin clenched his fingertips slightly, and there seemed to be some residual warmth from her in his palms.

"You take off your clothes like this in front of other men?"

Xiao Jin spoke again, breaking the silence in the car.

Taking off clothes in front of other men? Su Ying frowned and thought about it. It seemed that she had never done so. Even if she was injured in the past, she would just go to the space operating room for treatment by herself. There were robots to assist her and she didn't need anyone else. So even if she took off her clothes, only the robots would see her.

So she said decisively: "No."

For some reason, Xiao Jin felt like laughing.

"You didn't have to say that yesterday. This matter was also due to my negligence."

Su Ying knew that she was talking about Aunt Sun, and she said indifferently: "This Lieutenant General Wang was a capable general you trusted before, so he is a useful person and can be kept." From the attitudes of Jiang Yang and Xiao Jin, it can be seen that they have a friendship with this Lieutenant General Wang.

Xiao Jin frowned slightly and nodded, "Yes."

"The Northern Wasteland is full of changes. One more helper means one less enemy."

Xiao Jin's dark eyes were slightly startled, "Are you planning for me?"

Su Ying raised her eyebrows, her cold eyes showing a hint of fatigue, "No?"

Xiao Jin felt that the happiness in his heart had expanded a lot.

Seeing his puzzled look, Su Ying simply closed her eyes. The moment she came into this world and figured out the situation, she already felt responsible for Xiao Jin and the two children. She would find a safe place for them, so she would try her best to plan for their future. After all, she couldn't always be with them, so it wasn't a bad thing to have one more trustworthy person by his side.

So she let Aunt Sun vent her anger today. Her purpose was not to win Aunt Sun's forgiveness, but to keep Wang Lang alive to help Xiao Jin in the future, so that the two children would have more protection in the future.

At both ends of the carriage, one person on each side, the swaying of the carriage was caused by two people with different thoughts.
