"You...you're already dizzy? Are you too fragile, or did I go too far?"
Lan Xing looked at the man she had knocked unconscious with a single slap with annoyance, and a sense of panic began to rise within her.
He had just recovered from the poison and was still injured. Was his palm strike too forceful?
Won't they kill him?
The man lay unconscious on the ground, motionless. Lan Xing felt extremely guilty and trembled as she reached out to check his breath.
"Waaah... I didn't mean to! I really didn't mean to, please, please wake up!"
Lan Xing didn't sense any breath under the man's nose, and assumed that she had killed him. Feeling guilty, she burst into tears.
"I'm really not a bad person. It's just that you never believe me. Even though I saved you, you still hit me. I couldn't beat you, so I had to give you muscle relaxant!"
"Waaah... You can't die! I've always saved people, never killed anyone. Don't die! I don't want to be burdened with the guilt of murder, otherwise I won't be able to sleep at night!"
Lan Xing kept shaking the man on the ground, crying bitterly, tears falling one by one onto the man's face and into his mouth.
The man tasted the salty tears of the woman and couldn't help but frown.
The woman is crying like this, and she doesn't seem to be one of their people. Could it be that she just happened to save me by chance?
His resolve had wavered, but because of his deep suspicion, he was still unwilling to wake up and wanted to continue testing him.
Lanxing cried for a long time, until her throat was dry, before she finally stopped crying.
After choking back a few sobs, she finally accepted the fact that the man might have really been killed by her.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hit you, and I certainly didn't expect to kill you. Since you're dead, I can only bury you. Come back and seek revenge in your next life!"
She knelt down and kowtowed to the man several times, feeling guilty.
The man was greatly shocked when he heard her kowtowing. This woman was actually kowtowing to him?
She's too...
At this moment, he could believe that the woman in front of him was not sent by those people to kill him.
After kowtowing, Lan Xing wiped away her tears, got up, and went forward to push the man's body outside and dig a hole to bury him.
"Cough cough..."
Just as Lan Xing encountered him, the man coughed a few times and slowly woke up.
"You...you're not dead?"
Lan Xing stood there stunned, then burst into tears of joy.
"That's great! You're not dead! I didn't kill anyone!"
The man lowered his eyes awkwardly. "I want some water."
"Okay, I'll go find it for you right away, just wait a moment."
Blue Star immediately stood up with joy.
The man watched his cheerful figure disappear into the distance, and a rare look of guilt appeared on his face.
This woman seems very naive. She saved him, yet he didn't trust her. It seems a bit excessive of him.
*
Over the next few days, Lan Xing learned that the man's name was Gao Changhong, and that he had been tricked by bad people and fell off a cliff, only managing to survive by clinging to tree branches.
Gao Changhong gradually lowered his guard and recuperated in the cave, while Lan Xing would visit him every day under the pretext of going down the mountain to collect herbs.
About half a month later, Gao Changhong's injuries had gradually healed, and even the scabs on his face had fallen off.
Without the wounds, his face was an incomparably handsome one.
"Hey, I didn't know you were this good-looking!"
Beside the stream.
Lan Xing looked at Gao Changhong, whose wounds had completely healed and whose face had been washed, and couldn't help but sigh.
When she first saw him, his face was not only dirty, but also had several cuts. She could only vaguely make out that the man's features were very three-dimensional. She never expected that he would be so stunning after he recovered.
"Not as good-looking as you."
Gao Changhong smiled, glanced at Lan Xing, who had a face as beautiful as a lotus and was delicate and innocent, and blushed slightly as he praised her.
Unlike Lan Xing, he had seen many women, but none were as pure and innocent as Lan Xing. Her eyes were like those of a fawn in the forest, and her skin was as smooth as fine white porcelain. Although she didn't wear heavy makeup like other women,
She was still breathtakingly beautiful.
"Stop talking nonsense. I said you're good-looking, and that's it."
After being praised by Gao Changhong, Lan Xing lowered her head shyly, but felt a sweet warmth in her heart.
Gao Changhong just stared at him, his eyes full of starlight.
He didn't know when it had started, but this woman had quietly entered his heart.
"After you finish gathering the herbs today, wait in the cave. I'll hunt some rabbits and pheasants for you!"
Gao Changhong smiled and gave Lan Xing a few more instructions before disappearing from her sight in a flash.
*
In the mountains and forests.
Gao Changhong held a homemade bow and arrow, searching for a target.
The rabbits in these deep mountains are much smarter than those in ordinary mountains, so he went out for a long time but didn't catch a single one.
Now, finally, he spotted a plump gray rabbit. He crouched cautiously in the lush grass, holding a bow and arrow, aiming at his target.
With a whoosh, the arrow flew out.
"Hey! I finally hit the target!"
Gao Changhong got up happily, about to go forward and pick up the rabbit to take back and make roasted rabbit meat with Lan Xing.
Before he could even pick up the rabbit, a purple figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere and picked it up from the ground before he could.
Wow! I actually caught a rabbit!
It was a cheerful female voice.
"I shot that rabbit, you didn't catch it."
Gao Changhong frowned unhappily and said in a deep voice.
Hearing the voice, the woman turned around, her expression arrogant, about to tell him unreasonably that the rabbit she found first was hers.
But when she saw the man's face clearly, she was slightly stunned for a moment, and a look of amazement flashed in her eyes.
Then, a satisfied smile appeared on her lips, and she said gently, "Can't you just give me this rabbit? I really like it."
"Do you like not knowing how to hunt? What does that have to do with me!"
Gao Changhong said with a cold face.
The moment the woman opened her mouth, she adopted the same affected and pretentious manner as other noble ladies, which inexplicably disgusted him.
You! You're asking for it!
This was a rare instance of Zi Xing being so kind and gentle to a stranger. She hadn't expected him to reject her so decisively, which truly angered her.
You should know that although her appearance might not be considered stunningly beautiful, she was still one of the best in the sect.
"Give me back my rabbit!"
Gao Changhong didn't care about the woman's anger at all. He stretched out his hand and looked at her with a stern face.
"Want it? Well, we'll see if you have the ability!"
Zi Xing chuckled coldly, then picked up the rabbit and ran away.
Upon seeing this, Gao Changhong naturally followed quickly.
Before long, the two were engaged in a lively fight in the mountains and forests.
