Chapter 266 Late Night Training
Upon hearing this, Chen Baoyue gave a bitter laugh: "Miss, I went to my aunt's house, and just as I expected, they didn't recognize me. My cousin, who was engaged to me, has already married someone else. The day I went there was also his wedding day!"
Xia Xing'er didn't comment on what she heard, but the glint in her eyes couldn't be deceiving. She asked with great interest, "Oh, how did you do it?"
"Actually, before my family got into trouble, my parents had already left a way out for me. They sent the dowry they had prepared for me to my aunt's house long ago, and we agreed that the day I went there would be the day my cousin and I would get married."
"But, during the time I was missing, not only did they not send anyone to look for me, they even used my dowry as a betrothal gift to another girl!"
"If they didn't want me to marry them, they could have said so directly and rejected my father's proposal right then and there. But they absolutely shouldn't have said one thing in public and another behind my back. So I ended up using the birthmark on my shoulder to justify my identity and caused a scene at the wedding banquet."
Xia Xing'er said in disbelief: "Are you alone?"
It's not that she underestimated Chen Baoyue, it's really that a woman like her who was so weak that if she showed any sign of trouble, she would definitely be controlled by them.
Having said that, Chen Baoyue smiled and looked at Xia Xing'er with eyes full of gratitude.
"When I heard that my cousin was going to marry someone else, I had already thought of this. How could I dare to go alone? I used all the money you gave me to hire a man."
"I even went to the local county magistrate to make the decision for me. I also promised him that if he helped me get my dowry back, I would split it 50-50!"
No one would be unwilling to take advantage of a piece of cake, let alone such a huge fortune. Who can refuse it?
Upon hearing this, Xia Xing'er smiled appreciatively: "So, not only did you cause a scene at the wedding, you also wanted to return the dowry?"
Chen Baoyue looked at Xia Xing'er and laughed, and she also laughed: "This is the confidence you gave me, girl. If you hadn't left me a way out here, I wouldn't dare to do this!"
Her gratitude towards Xia Xing'er reached its peak.
It can be said that if it weren't for Xia Xing'er, she might have died, and she would not have known the character of her aunt's family, and it would have been impossible for her to get justice for herself.
When she thought of this, she put down the bag on her back.
He opened the bundle, took out a wooden box, and placed it directly in front of Xia Xing'er.
"Miss, this is the dowry I brought back from my aunt's house. Baoyue doesn't plan to marry again in the future. She just wants to live out her life in this Stone Village. Baoyue can't give you anything else except this money. I hope you won't despise it and accept it!"
Xia Xing'er opened the box, and inside was a thick stack of silver bills. She scanned it with her spiritual sense and found that there were nearly ten thousand taels of silver.
She only took out a silver note with a face value of one hundred taels and pushed the others back to Chen Baoyue.
"I'll take this, and you can keep the rest for yourself. If a girl wants to live independently, she can't do that without money."
"If you really want to thank me, then live every day well from now on."
Chen Baoyue was able to maintain a tough attitude in the face of her treacherous aunt's family, but she almost shed tears because of Xia Xinger's warm words.
Ever since her family fell into poverty, all the warmth she received came from the girl in front of her.
She hastily assured him, "Don't worry, young lady. I was able to survive in a tribe like the Tanala Tribe that eats people. The current environment is much better than there. I'm sure I'll live even better."
Xia Xing'er looked at Chen Baoyue, who was full of energy, and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, then you will live in this Stone Village from now on. I will have someone arrange accommodation for you later."
Chen Baoyue once again solemnly thanked Xia Xinger.
After arranging the accommodation, Chen Baoyue thought about it and took out half of the silver notes, intending to give them directly to Liu Youran, the old lady of the Xia family.
This is Miss Xia’s home. She also saw the construction project over there. It seems that the girl’s family is building a house. She wants to settle down here, so it is natural for her to contribute to this family.
At night, the lights in Stone Village light up one after another, like stars in the sky.
There are rows of small wooden houses at the foot of the mountain. Originally, there was only Xia Xing'er's family here, but now there are nearly a hundred small wooden houses here.
Even on the mountain you can see tiny dots of light.
It looks spectacular.
Xia Xing'er sat on the roof of her wooden house, with a panoramic view of the Stone Village under the starry night. However, in just a few days, wooden sentry posts had been built on the mountains that originally surrounded the Stone Village.
If you look closely, you can also see the patrol team on the mountain.
She thought to herself that in a few months, this place would look completely different.
Xuanyuan Yi has gone out again. Ever since his former subordinates came here, they rarely have time to come back, whether it is day or night, and they come back every day in the middle of the night.
I only sleep for two hours a day.
If it weren't for his strong body and the food Xia Xing'er had been feeding him for a while, even if his body was young, he wouldn't be able to withstand such torture.
When Xia Xing'er thought of this, she went straight into the space and started to tinker with her things.
She used a lot of the medicine in the space. Later, she refined some herself and also got some from Jiujiu.
She put some commonly used medicines and food into a ring.
Xuanyuan Yi now has to support so many people, so the supplies must keep up.
She also trusted his character. Since everyone in her family had a space ring, she would prepare one for him so that it would be more convenient for him to store things there.
He chose a dragon-shaped ring from a crowd of space rings. For some reason, ever since she saw this ring, she felt that it was very suitable for Xuanyuan Yi.
He put all the prepared supplies into the dragon-shaped ring.
After doing all this, Xia Xing'er began to meditate and practice.
In the deep mountains at night.
A team of 100,000 people is undergoing intensive training. They are divided into groups of 500 and start the devilish training.
Some crawled forward, some climbed rocks with their bare hands, and some sank to the bottom of the lake and held their breath.
Xuanyuan Yi found the strongest thousand people from inside, specially cordoned off an area, and asked them to surround the city in a circle and attack him in the form of a round-robin battle.
Unlike the time when he was dancing with the sword in front of Xia Xing'er, he looked extremely embarrassed now, with sweat even dripping from his hair.
Because Xuanyuan Yi had given a death order, these selected people did not dare to slack off, and each of them put in all their strength to greet him.
