Chapter 320 You Don’t Observe Martial Ethics
"Who, who is this?" Xiao Jiuyue followed Jin Wen out and saw a bloody man. The man was covered in blood, and his clothes had many marks of whipping and torture. The bloody smell that hit his nose was not pleasant.
"I picked him up from a bandit's lair." Jin Wen whispered, "When I went to inquire, I happened to see the bandits taking him on a mountain road. There was a fight between them and his men. He ran away desperately, and all his men died. The bandits were looking for him, as if they wanted to get something from him."
"I brought him back." Jin Wen said, "Miss, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, right?"
"Yes." Xiao Jiuyue nodded slightly and said, "Then can he be saved?"
"He can be saved." Jin Wen nodded confidently. "None of his wounds are fatal. He just passed out from the pain. I applied some simple medicine to him earlier, and I'll go to the mountains and boil some medicine for him to eat. He'll definitely survive."
"Then go find him. Put him in the woodshed first." Xiao Jiuyue walked up to the bloody man and saw that he had completely fallen asleep. In the moonlight, he could clearly see the marks on his body. He said, "He's a man. Does he have anything on him?"
"No." Jin Wen shook his head and said, "Miss, I can't leave now. Jin Wu has gone to the county, and you are by my side..."
"No one knows I live here. Besides, Shang Yifan and the others are safe." Xiao Jiuyue raised her eyes and reminded, "Rescue them first. Be careful when you go to the mountains to collect herbs."
Jin Wen responded, "Yes, Miss, I'll be back soon." He glanced at the bloody man lying on the ground, turned around and walked into the mountains.
"Lianxin, warm up some porridge in the pot and prepare some steamed buns. It's just right. Do we still have the braised beef in soy sauce that we brought?" Xiao Jiuyue asked.
"Yes." Lian Xin responded and immediately went to prepare it. She asked, "Miss, is this for Jin Wen?"
"Yeah." Xiao Jiuyue nodded slightly and entered the room. She was not sleepy at all. She took a pen and wrote and drew on the paper. She was thinking: Will Hou Jian go to find Hua Qing?
In Donglin County, in an inn near the government office, Hua Qing was holding a plate of peanuts, a plate of braised pork and shredded cucumber, and a few steamed buns piled next to them. She grabbed the steamed bun, broke it open, stuffed the braised pork and shredded cucumber into it, took a bite, and felt extremely satisfied.
"Those bandits really look down on me. They only sent two people to arrest me. Do you think I, Master Hua Qing, am so easy to catch?" Hua Qing said with a look of disgust. He looked at Jin Wu and said, "You are also in the county. Does the young lady have enough manpower?"
"Donggui and Jinwen are here, that's enough!" Jinwu looked at Huaqing eating steamed buns with big mouthfuls and asked, "Huaqing, when you were fortune-telling today, were you talking nonsense?"
The steamed buns are filled with braised meat and shredded cucumber, and they taste really good.
Hua Qing stuffed the whole steamed bun into her mouth. Listening to Jin Wu's questioning words, Hua Qing was choked and rolled her eyes. She glared at Jin Wu fiercely and slammed the table: "Go ahead and tell me what you mean. If you can get one right, it's nothing. If you can get three right, I'll call you dad!"
Hua Qing raised her middle finger at him. Her Hua clan was well versed in numerology, so calculating some ordinary things should be as easy as eating and drinking, right?
"I'm not your father." As soon as Jin Wu finished speaking, Hua Qing had already taken out a knife and put it on his neck. Jin Wu dodged, and the two men started fighting in the house.
Lan Ying stood in the dark and watched the two of them fighting. His eyes were full of disbelief. Aren't they one of them?
"The bandits have all been captured. Forget it, let them fight." Lan Ying hid in the shadows, his eyes sparkling. Seeing Jin Wu losing the upper hand, he sneered, "You can't even beat a woman. With so little skill, you still want to protect Miss Xiao. Will you be able to do it when the time comes?"
"It's a pity that my master doesn't let me get close, otherwise, I would ask her to calculate for me when I can get married." There was regret in Lan Ying's eyes.
Lan Ying muttered to himself. Inside the room, Jin Wu's face flushed red as he looked at Hua Qing and said, "You have no martial ethics."
"We're about to fight, why don't you just act like kids?" Hua Qing's dagger landed on his vital spot, and he looked at him with a fake smile: "Who do you want to be the father of?"
"I don't dare to be anyone's father." Jin Wu cleared his throat and said, "Put down the dagger first, and let's talk it out."
"Am I just telling people's fortunes when I tell them nonsense?" Hua Qing asked.
Jin Wu swallowed hard, looking at the dagger in Hua Qing's hand, afraid that her hand would tremble. He said, "No, you are really capable. Otherwise, can you calculate for my brother when he can get married?"
"Your brother?" Hua Qing put away the dagger and sat back to eat her steamed bun. She ate it in big mouthfuls and said, "Why don't you count yours? I see that your forehead is full and your family will be happy in the future. Let me see..."
Hua Qing counted on his fingers and said, "Oh, you have three children, not bad."
After a while, Hua Qing frowned: "Hey, why doesn't the latter one count?"
Hua Qing didn't even eat the steamed bun this time, and started to calculate directly. When the calculation failed, he said to him: "Give me your hand."
With previous experience, Jin Wu took his hand out obediently and said, "I'm not in a hurry to get married."
"Shut up." Hua Qing glanced at him, carefully examining his palm, and then asked, "What year were you born? What time were you born?"
Jin Wu told Hua Qing his birth date and eight characters. Hua Qing calculated them carefully, his brows almost knitted together. "No, something's wrong. How come I can't calculate anything except that you have three children? There must be something wrong."
After she finished speaking, Hua Qing took out her茭貝 to measure again!
"Miss Hua Qing, actually, it doesn't have to be counted..." Jin Wu looked at Hua Qing's appearance and couldn't help but remind her.
Hua Qing pretended not to hear and continued to calculate.
…
In the village, Xiao Jiuyue waited for Jin Wen to come back before she prepared to rest. Just as she was about to go back to the house, she suddenly looked back outside. Apart from the vague mountains and rice fields, the only sound was the croaking of frogs in the fields.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Lian Xin had just given the food to Jin Wen and saw Xiao Jiuyue looking outside.
"Donggui." Xiao Jiuyue called Donggui over. Donggui understood immediately with a glance and looked in Xiao Jiuyue's direction. She found the lush camphor tree at the edge of the field and looked around it. She replied, "Miss, there's no one here."
"Maybe I'm too sensitive." After Xiao Jiuyue confirmed this, she went back to her room and went to sleep with peace of mind.
"Lianxin, I'll guard outside." Donggui said, and then she stood guard near the house until the lights in Xiao Jiuyue's room went out. Then Donggui walked to the big camphor tree like a thief, knelt down and saluted him: "Your Highness."
"Yeah." Jun Lie responded, looking at the house where Xiao Jiuyue lived: "Jiuyue lives here?"
"The eldest lady said that living in the village is safe," Dong Gui replied. The moment she looked at Jun Lie, she immediately realized what was happening and said, "Luo Kui said that an important person lives in the county government office. So it's His Highness?"
