Chapter 976 The Lord is Not Skilled at Spelling People's Hearts 40
Song Jinhuan's heart pounded, but she remained unusually calm and said, "Let's leave this place first."
The people inside are coming out.
The four ran deeper into the woods.
The bright moonlight illuminated their path forward.
Taking advantage of the blood-red color, Elder Xichen winked and made faces at Saintess Lingwei for a while.
The Holy Maiden Lingwei asked in confusion, "Elder, have you perhaps injured your eyes?"
Elder Xichen glanced at her disdainfully, and in a corner where Song Jinhuan couldn't see, gestured towards Yu Sheng with his lip.
The Holy Maiden Lingwei seemed to understand something in a daze, and then she began to exchange glances with him.
Saintess Lingwei: Leave?
Elder Xichen: Hmm.
Holy Maiden Lingwei: Is Your Majesty alright?
Elder Xichen: He won't die.
Saintess Lingwei: Slow down a bit.
Elder Xichen: Give the Emei Sect and the Kunlun Sect a chance.
Saintess Lingwei: Then we used the excuse of drawing away the danger to separate ourselves from the young couple.
Elder Xichen: Very good.
The two have had a tacit understanding for many years, and they can indeed communicate with just their eyes.
Elder Xichen took out a bottle of wound medicine and handed it to Song Jinhuan, saying, "Madam, remember to apply the medicine to the Lord later."
"Huh? Can't the elders go up?"
Elder Xichen said somewhat shyly, "According to the rules of the territory, one cannot look at other people's bodies at will."
"Now that the Lord is yours, it is natural for you to apply the medicine."
I never imagined that the Lord and his wife would be so witty, able to come up with such shameless rules.
He's so old, he'd be embarrassed to even hear that.
Song Jinhuan remembered that if Elder Xichen applied the medicine, he might die.
Just then, Lingwei said urgently, "Oh no, they've followed us. Xichen and I will lure them here."
"Madam, you must protect the Lord well."
"Keep walking straight ahead, there should be houses down the mountain."
After she finished speaking, she didn't give Song Jinhuan a chance to answer at all, and dragged Elder Xichen away in the opposite direction from them.
Song Jinhuan gathered her strength and, half-embracing the person, descended the mountain as quickly as possible.
Sure enough, after a stick of incense had burned, she came across a farmhouse with its lights on.
Song Jinhuan went up and knocked on the door. After a short while, a couple in their fifties or sixties opened the door and introduced themselves as Uncle Duan and Aunt Duan.
As luck would have it, the male homeowner happened to know medicine.
Under his guidance, Song Jinhuan removed the dagger from Yu Sheng and applied medicine.
Aunt Duan brought in some food. "Young lady, are you hungry? Come and have something to eat."
Song Jinhuan was indeed hungry, but when she saw the unusually plentiful food on the table and the patches on the couple's clothes, she suddenly felt that she could endure it.
"I'm not hungry."
"I will take him away tomorrow. Thank you both for your help tonight."
Aunt Duan seemed to see her concerns and said with a smile, "Please eat, young lady. We have plenty of food at home, so don't worry about us."
Song Jinhuan hesitated.
Then she saw Aunt Duan reveal a large gold bracelet.
Song Jinhuan: "..."
That's direct enough.
She wiped everything out while Aunt Duan smiled.
"Being able to eat is a blessing, being able to eat is a blessing, hahaha."
Aunt Duan seemed particularly happy.
A strange feeling crossed Song Jinhuan's mind. She touched her face and thought, "Hiss~ No wonder she's like that."
To please elders.
Song Jinhuan was originally lying on the edge of the bed, but then she felt uncomfortable.
So he stepped over Yu Sheng and lay down beside him.
I touched his forehead one moment, and his hand the next.
Or lie down, prop yourself up, and stare at his face.
Pale, fragile, broken...
"Hehehe~ Ah Sheng is so handsome~" Song Jinhuan murmured softly, leaned over and kissed his forehead.
She touched his eyelids with her fingers, then leaned in and kissed him.
She touched his cheek again and kissed him.
She didn't notice the man's trembling eyelashes or his hand gradually clenching at his side.
