Chapter 5: Saving People
Grandpa Ling didn't ask anything. He picked up a dead branch on the ground and threw it, then pulled Jin Sui and walked towards the direction the dead branch pointed:
"Hurry up, go this way."
Jin Sui was amused and speechless: "Is this how Grandpa tells fortunes?"
At this time, the sound of fighting was heard from the ruined temple, and the officials and bandits rushed out of the temple covering their mouths and noses.
Faintly, I could hear the bandit shouting, "Where's that stinky Taoist priest? He must be the one behind this!"
The grandparents and grandchildren didn't dare to stay for even a moment and fled away from this dangerous place.
After they passed through the woods and the wilderness, they heard the sound of flowing water and were very far away from the land temple. The grandfather and grandson then collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath.
Grandpa Ling used his sleeve to wipe the blood, tears and snot, coughed for a while, and said angrily and fearfully:
"Didn't I tell you to stay hidden and not come out?"
Jin Sui retorted without hesitation: "If I have to watch my grandfather being killed by them, I would rather risk my life."
"If I can't save Grandpa, then we can walk across the Naihe Bridge together, so we won't be lonely on the road."
Grandpa Ling stared at her in a daze, his expression gradually changed from angry to kind, and he laughed and said, "Sui Sui has become braver! Okay, if there is any problem in the future, we two, the grandparents and grandchildren, will shoulder it together."
He hurriedly asked, "Why did you come to this remote place alone? Did something happen to the Jiang family?"
Jin Sui did not hide it. After all, the original owner died so tragically. She was also worried that if she didn't tell the truth, Grandpa Ling would send her back again.
After hearing what she said, Grandpa Ling was furious. His anger towards Jiang Youzhi was different from his anger towards the bandits. Jiang Youzhi was Jin Sui's closest relative! How could he do such a cruel thing?
I was so blind that I believed Jiang Youzhi's words and almost harmed Suisui.
Grandpa Ling was angry and regretful. He held Jin Sui's hand and said, "Let's go back and find him. If I don't break Jiang Youzhi's legs, I won't be named Ling!"
He fell to the ground and coughed violently just after he finished speaking. Jin Sui hurriedly comforted him: "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. You can find him later. Now it is more important to escape."
She didn't tell him about the poisonous and mute Zheng, for fear that Grandpa Ling would notice that her personality was too different from the original owner and become suspicious.
Grandpa Ling also understood that revenge on the Jiang family was not the most important thing at the moment. He took out a compass from his sleeve to identify the direction, and then took out three copper coins to tell fortunes.
Jin Sui suppressed his laughter and said, "Why didn't Grandpa tell my fortune when he left me at the Jiang family? Did you also forget to tell my fortune before you were caught by the bandits tonight? Oh, by the way, how did Grandpa become a Taoist priest?"
Grandpa Ling glared at her and said, "How do you know Grandpa didn't tell fortunes? We're all alive, that's a good omen!"
Jin Sui sighed in his heart, it is a pity that your granddaughter is already dead, and the one who is still alive is just a soul from another world who has been replaced by someone else.
"Your grandfather was originally a Taoist priest. I returned to secular life a few years ago, married and had children. I still have this Taoist robe and conversion certificate."
"I don't know what's going on now. Even entering a town requires a pass. It's easier to travel around pretending to be a Taoist priest."
"Let's go to the water. This divination is very auspicious because of the water. Let's go to the south of the Yangtze River by water first, and then follow the caravan to Yandi."
When Jinsui heard the word "Jiangnan", he laughed at himself and said, "If I had known this earlier, I would not have escaped first. I would have let my grandmother take me to Jiangnan before escaping. It would have saved a lot of trouble."
Grandpa Ling led the way in front, and under the moonlight, following the guidance of the compass, they headed all the way to the south of the Yangtze River.
Jinsui followed closely and tested how to enter the laboratory.
We have to get some medicine for Grandpa quickly, he is seriously injured.
She pressed her left palm, which instantly felt burning hot. A colorful light flashed in her palm, and then her eyes blurred. She really entered the laboratory.
It was so easy to get in!
Jin Sui felt relieved, but she was still worried about what special conditions were needed to unlock it!
I hurriedly got some anti-inflammatory drugs and external wound medicines, as well as a bottle of mineral water and a few energy bars.
Afraid that the things would suddenly come out and cause Grandpa Ling to panic, he put the things in a black bag and put it in his arms.
If she wasn't afraid of being caught up by the police or bandits, she really wanted to take Grandpa Ling to find a place to rest and study the laboratory properly.
Grandpa Ling was old after all, and had been beaten by the bandits. When he reached the river, the sky was turning pale, so he sat down and rested with peace of mind.
Jin Sui took the opportunity to take out the food and medicine, and lied,
"Fortunately, I kept the things I bought in the town with me. Grandpa, please eat something."
It was still dark, and Grandpa Ling had no doubt that his granddaughter was harming her, so he ate whatever was handed to him.
When eating the energy bar, I was surprised: "This snack is so sweet!"
Afraid that he would be surprised that the mineral water bottle was transparent, Jin Sui wrapped it in a black bag and handed it to him to drink.
The grandfather and grandson were taking the time to rest when suddenly a strange sound was heard from the reeds under the river bank.
Jinsui was suddenly startled, and Grandpa Ling hurriedly picked up a long stick to poke the reeds. A wild duck flew out, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
But soon, Jinsui discovered that there seemed to be a person lying where the wild duck flew out.
Grandpa Ling also noticed it and hurried down to the riverbank to rescue people.
Jin Sui calmly held him back and said, "Maybe they were bandits."
Grandpa Ling said: "It was the bandits who pushed him down again!"
Jinsui had no choice but to follow him down the river bank, and the grandfather and grandson worked together to drag the man from the shallow water to the river bank.
It was a man wearing brocade clothes, very tall, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. There were wounds on his shoulders and abdomen, and another wound on his cheek.
Grandpa Ling wiped his face with his sleeve. Under the morning sun, a handsome face like a jade sculpture appeared in Jinsui's eyes.
"He's still breathing." Grandpa Ling hurriedly took off his clothes and bandaged him.
At this moment, a flock of birds were startled in the woods in the distance, and the sound of horse hooves was getting closer. No matter whether the approaching people were bandits or officials, they had to flee quickly.
Jin Sui hurriedly pulled Grandpa Ling: "Based on my past experience, men like this who fall on the side of the road cannot be saved!"
Grandpa Ling: "...What experience do you have?"
Uh, saving a man in the wild will not end well! If you don't believe me, look at how He Yan saved Fu Shenxing, Xiao Feng saved Li Chengyin, and Kikyo saved Ghost Spider...
Judging from the man's clothes and belt, he is either rich or noble. He has knife and arrow wounds on his body, which shows that he is obviously a troublesome person.
We, a grandparent and grandchild, were being chased by the police and robbed by bandits. How could we have the chastity to save a strange man?
Grandpa Ling also heard the sound of horse hooves. Although he was a kind man, he still knew what to choose between saving a stranger and keeping his granddaughter safe.
Putting the man down, La Jinsui said, "Hurry up and walk quietly along the river. You will be safe when you meet a boat."
The grandfather and grandson walked a few steps, then turned back to look at the man lying on the ground and stared at each other.
They both saw the pity in each other's eyes, and if they really didn't care, they would probably both feel guilty.
Grandpa Ling gritted his teeth and said, "Bandage him up and push him into the reeds. It depends on his luck whether he can survive."
Ling Jinsui was a doctor after all, and he felt very uncomfortable watching someone die without saving him, so he agreed:
"Okay! Move fast."
She quickly tore off the hem of her inner garment, fed the anti-inflammatory medicine prepared for Grandpa Ling into the man's mouth, and forced him to swallow a few gulps of water.
I quickly sprinkled some topical medicine on his wound and wrapped it with a piece of cloth. The situation was urgent and I didn't care about anything else.
If it were in the future, he would have to stay in the intensive care unit, but in this situation, it all depends on his luck.
The two men carried him back to the reeds and erased all traces of him nearby.
Before leaving, Jin Sui whispered in the man's ear: "Believe in yourself, you will survive."
He unwrapped another energy bar and thrust it into his hands. That was all he could do.
It was impossible for her and Grandpa Ling to escape with this strange man.
