"How do you know?" She looked at Su Lijin seriously.
The voice was hoarse and full of menace.
"People who have been ill for a long time have a certain smell on their bodies. I smelled it when you came out. And the herbs on your table, although they are withered, are obviously used for treatment. It must be the wrong herbs, so you didn't use them. Am I right?"
Su Lijin spoke very confidently.
This time, it was old lady Saren's turn to feel uneasy.
"What exactly do you want to do?" She asked Su Lijin.
"It's simple. I want to find my brother. If you can help me find the person I'm looking for, I can help you treat your patient. This can be considered a deal between the two of us. How do you do it?"
Her originally calm face now showed a look of surprise, and even anticipation.
But it was only for a moment, and her expression dimmed.
"Is there anything trustworthy about your medical skills? This is just our first meeting, why should I trust you?"
Su Lijin was not angry when she was questioned.
"If you don't believe it, we can treat it first."
Sarin frowned and thought seriously for a moment, then stood up and sighed: "You guys followed me."
The two men followed Saren into the inner room of the house.
When she opened the door, Su Lijin saw a little girl lying on the bed with a pale face. She looked no more than eleven or twelve years old.
"This is my little granddaughter. She suddenly fell ill some time ago. The herbs didn't work. You can try it."
Su Lijin listened to Saren's words, then went over to take the girl's pulse.
"It's not a big deal. I'll use acupuncture to stabilize the heart meridian first. Then take the medicine on time and you'll be fine within a month."
As she spoke, Su Lijin took out the silver needles she carried with her, then asked Xiao Shengxing to go out, took off the girl's clothes, and began to give her acupuncture.
The little girl, who originally had a pale face, actually looked a little rosy after the acupuncture.
After seeing this reaction, Saren looked at Su Lijin with surprise, as if he had seen a benefactor.
After the acupuncture, Su Lijin wrote a prescription and placed it in Saren's hand.
"Follow this prescription for a month and it will definitely cure your illness, but you need to get plenty of rest."
As Su Lijin spoke, her eyes fell thoughtfully on the little girl. For some reason, she always felt that there was something wrong with this little girl.
But I couldn’t put it into words at the moment.
She pursed her lips and sighed. Her brother's interests were more important now.
Saren also saw what Su Lijin was thinking, so he took her out of the room and spoke in front of Xiao Shengxing.
"I did see a man who looked very similar to the one you mentioned a while ago. He did come here, but he left very quickly and didn't stay for long."
Xiao Shengxing frowned and spoke thoughtfully, "If they've already left, they should be almost at the border by now. We should catch up as soon as possible."
Su Lijin agreed, and the two of them said goodbye to Saren.
The sky gradually darkened, and the two people had already received news about Su Moyuan.
What we need to do now is to travel overnight, catch up with the main force, and then return to the team quietly.
In the dense forest late at night, a sharp cry suddenly came from somewhere.
Afterwards, dozens of men in black holding long swords suddenly appeared around Su Lijin and Xiao Shengxing.
They all wore masks and had ferocious looks on their faces. Even without asking, one knew they were going to kill.
Xiao Shengxing subconsciously protected Su Lijin behind him.
"When you find an opportunity, leave quickly." He lowered his voice and instructed Su Lijin, then rushed forward.
Su Lijin also helped. Although both of them were good at martial arts, they were still no match for four hands.
There were too many people sent by the other party, and Su Lijin gradually became exhausted.
She kicked the man in black in front of her away, and while gasping for breath, she didn't notice the long sword stabbing at her from behind.
The moment Xiao Shengxing turned around, he was frightened by the scene. He flew to Su Lijin's side and stabbed the black-clothed man's heart with his sword, but his own arm was severely pierced.
The moment the blood gushed out, Su Lijin turned around and killed the man in black who had injured Xiao Shengxing.
She frowned and supported Xiao Shengxing: "Are you okay?"
Xiao Shengxing gritted his teeth and pressed the wound that was still bleeding: "Let's go!"
Su Lijin supported Xiao Shengxing and fled deep into the woods, while the man in black behind them was still closing in on them.
However, Xiao Shengxing was gradually losing strength due to excessive blood loss.
His legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
Su Lijin helped him sit aside, and then saw the medicinal herbs not far away, and her eyes lit up instantly.
"We're saved, wait for me!"
Su Lijin gave some instructions, then stood up and picked the herbs.
Xiao Shengxing wanted to say something, but the hand he raised just caught the edge of Su Lijin's clothes which disappeared in an instant.
The men in black who were about to catch up became a little wary after seeing Su Lijin suddenly come back.
"What? You don't dare to catch up?" Su Lijin sneered and secretly crushed the herbs behind her back.
Her provocative words made the men in black chase after her angrily. However, they had only taken two steps when they saw the woman in front of them suddenly throw something at them.
Su Lijin saw the right opportunity, turned around and ran, and couldn't help but sneer before leaving.
"Please accept the gift I prepared for you."
