Chapter 212 The Hand That Saves the Dead and the Wounded
"I heard that no one knows exactly where the Ghost Gate is. Over the past five hundred years, thousands of people have searched for its location, but no one has ever been able to find it. Some say it's in the Wuji Sea, while others say it's in the Rebirth Heaven. Regardless, no one who has searched for it has ever returned alive!"
"When the Ghost Gate appears, troubled times are coming. No one can tell whether this statement is true or not. Throughout the dynasties, whenever the Ghost Gate appears, it is a sign of troubled times!"
Xia Chengsheng didn't know much about the Ghost Gate. All he knew was what he heard from the older generation.
If Xia Xing'er and the others hadn't come back and talked about it today, I would have doubted whether the Ghost Gate really existed.
Liu Youran frowned. "Husband, is this ghost gate really as strange as you say?"
This was the first time she heard of Ghost Gate!
"Let's not talk about whether it's weird or not. Anyway, I'm too old and have never come into contact with it. If Xing'er hadn't mentioned it today, I wouldn't have remembered it!"
Guimian looked at the Xia family and felt a little guilty.
He knew that if he hadn't insisted on coming back with Xia Xing'er, the Xia family would not have confronted the people from Guimen.
Thinking of this, he knelt down and kowtowed to Xia Xing'er and everyone in the Xia family.
"Master, sir, and old lady, I'm sorry. It's my fault. If it weren't for me, the master wouldn't have confronted the Ghost Gate. I will leave now and will never let you down again."
He had already made up his mind that he would commit suicide after he left. It was better to die alone than to sacrifice the lives of the entire Xia family!
Everyone in the Xia family was also muttering in their hearts!
Is Ghost Gate really that powerful?
Can’t the entire Xia family resist?
Can’t my aunt beat those people?
Will those people hurt my aunt?
In the hearts of the three little ones, their little aunt is the most powerful. If someone can't even deal with their little aunt, then that person must be even more powerful. At this moment, they seem to be growing up quickly!
Xia Xing'er looked at the kneeling Ghost Face with displeasure and said coldly, "What nonsense are you talking about? Since you acknowledge me as the boss, you are also a member of my Xia family. Xia family members share hardships and happiness together. How can you push someone out of danger when they are in danger? Isn't this making us Xia family members unkind and unjust?"
After Xia Xing'er finished speaking, everyone came to their senses and felt a little ashamed.
They were really thinking just now that if this ghost mask really left on its own, it would be a good thing for them.
This way Xing'er will be safe!
"Am I, Xia Xing'er, such a person? But if your existence truly threatens my family, then I will definitely kick you out without you having to tell me!"
The Xia family members who were just in self-doubt...
Ghost Face was just feeling moved when he heard such heartbreaking words...
Well, in the end, my sincerity was betrayed...
"Ghost Face, it's safest for you to stay in Stone Village right now. That ghost guy suffered a loss at my hands today, and he escaped with the injured Chen Zhi. He should be in a hurry to heal his wounds now, and he shouldn't make any moves in the short term, so don't worry too much!"
After hearing what Xia Xing'er said, Xia Chengsheng also nodded.
"Xing'er is right. Up to now, in over five hundred years, we haven't heard of any single instance of the Ghost Gate mobilizing as a whole. Individual members of the Ghost Gate cannot represent the entire Ghost Gate. We don't know what will happen in the future, let alone predict it. Even if we are worried now, there's nothing we can do!"
"Mom and Dad, it's getting late now. We're all going back. You should go to bed early too!"
Seeing that everyone looked tired, Xia Xing'er suggested going to rest first.
Seeing that everything was indeed fine, Xia Chengsheng bowed.
"Okay, let's go back and rest!"
Everyone obediently left Xia Chengsheng's tent and went back to rest.
After Xia Xing'er returned to the tent, she did not rest.
She went straight into the space, found some advanced formation plates inside, and also found a protective jade pendant for Ghost Face.
She found some books about formations and planned to study them later.
She quickly placed a concealment array in every tent of the Xia family.
She hoped that these formation plates could be used, so it seemed that she had to hurry up and study the formations.
We have to set up a large formation for the entire Xia family. Hiding is the first priority, and the most important thing is to be able to attack the enemy when necessary to protect the Xia family.
She didn't know if doing this could protect her family, but at least it could provide some protection.
When they really get into trouble, I can come to rescue them in time.
She was very busy in the next few days. She followed Xuanyuan Yi to see the Black Potassium Army and got their recognition!
After studying in the space whenever she had time these past few days, she finally set up a large formation in the Xia family!
During this period, she did not wait for the ghost or anyone from Guimen, but instead waited for Duan Yu and his two followers.
That day, at dawn, Duan Yu brought Xiaojiu and the other person from Yong County to Shitou Village.
During this period, they also took the wrong route several times.
Now the Xia family no longer lives in tents, but in cabins.
The fields around the courtyard have also been cultivated.
Chen Dabai and his men have already laid the foundation of the entire house.
When Duan Yu and the other two arrived at the Xia family's residence, they saw about a hundred people working in the fields, with the Xia family members directing them.
There were about a hundred people nearby busy building houses.
Everyone in Shitou Village had a smile on their face. Since the Xia family came, their lives had visibly improved.
Now, just working for the Xia family for a day can earn you dozens of copper coins.
Some families only left the elderly and children, and everyone else was helping the Xia family with work.
They never dared to imagine such days before, and they cherish the present days very much.
We are also grateful to the Xia family for giving them the opportunity.
Xia Xing'er was originally teaching the three little ones martial arts. When she saw Duan Yu and the other two, she threw a hoe at each of them.
"Brother Duan, now that you're here, I'll hand over that piece of land to you three. I'm sure you all have no objections, right? You'll definitely be done in a short while. I'm a little busy right now, so you guys go ahead and work on it first. We'll talk after you've rested!"
Now that they are here, let them get to work first!
The young master of the Divine Doctor Valley hoes the fields for their family, and just thinking about it gives them a sense of accomplishment!
Xia Xing'er didn't admit that she did it on purpose!
After leaving the master and servant behind, she went back to supervise the three little ones.
Xiaojiu held a hoe in his hand and looked blankly at the wasteland in front of him.
"Young Master, do we really want to help Miss Xia hoe the fields?"
"Why don't we go back? Your hands are for healing the sick, not for tilling the ground. If the old valley master knew that you were using those hands to hoe the ground, he would break our legs!"
Duan Yu looked at Xia Xing'er's departing figure and said with a firm face: "I want you all to see that this young master's hands can not only save the dying and the wounded, but can also pick up a hoe and till the ground!"
