"Little...Sister Yanfei, the herbs we picked today are enough to exchange for a lot of silver!
It’s getting late, let’s go back quickly!”
Luzhu followed closely behind "Yanfei" with a small basket on his back, urging her in a low voice.
She didn't understand why her young lady suddenly knew how to recognize herbs!
The day before yesterday, she carried the herbs she had collected to a pharmacy in a nearby town and sold them for ten taels of silver!
This is a considerable amount of money for them!
When they were driven to the villa two years ago, the incident happened suddenly. The three of them, master and servant, only had a few small coins with them, which had been spent long ago.
The general's mansion only took care of their food and clothing, and did not care about anything else, and did not even provide them with any monthly allowance.
The food is simple, but I won’t starve to death.
He had four sets of clothes a year. Although the fabric was poor, he wouldn't freeze to death.
If you still want to have other wishes, it is absolutely impossible.
After all, the three of them, master and servant, came here to be punished!
Therefore, the herbs collected by Si Jinxing can be exchanged for ten taels of silver!
This instantly made her image in Luzhu's heart taller!
My young lady is getting more and more powerful!
At this time, the "Yan Fei" walking in front with a veiled hat was none other than Si Jinxing in disguise.
The two servants at the gate of the villa were only responsible for keeping an eye on Si Jinxing.
Si Jinxing was very surprised that he did not interfere with the two girls going out to do things.
That’s right, the Si family announced to the public that the second young lady was recuperating in a separate courtyard.
If even the maids are not allowed to go out, it is naked imprisonment.
That Zhou was the mistress who was promoted from a concubine!
The most taboo thing is that others say that she treats the legitimate daughter left by the previous mistress harshly. She always wants to save face and naturally cannot give others any chance to talk about her.
"Okay, I'll be right back." Si Jinxing responded casually without even turning his head.
She looked carefully at the buds in front of her, and it was clearly saffron!
Doesn't it bloom in October? Why is it only mid-June now?
She was still frowning and thinking when the little girl behind her pulled her arm and she almost fell down.
Lu Zhu quickly supported her, pointed ahead, and said in a trembling voice:
"Miss, little...Miss, look at that...what is that?"
Although Si Jinxing had been to this forest twice, he was not familiar with it.
Seeing Luzhu so scared at this time, I subconsciously thought that he had encountered some ferocious beast or poisonous snake!
Just as he was about to take out a tranquilizer gun from the pharmacy, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
I saw a sparkling river not far away, separated by the shadowy branches of the jungle.
And there seems to be a person lying by the river?
From here, the person seemed motionless, was he actually a corpse?
Seeing her young lady trying to move over there, Luzhu was frightened and turned pale. She quickly grabbed her and shouted:
"Miss, Miss, we can't go through!"
"There's not even a single person here. If he's not dead, wouldn't it be like walking into a tiger's mouth for the two of us to go there?
It's too dangerous to do this, let's go back quickly!"
Luzhu took two quick steps and grabbed her arm, then picked up the herb basket that had fallen on the ground and prepared to go back.
Si Jinxing squinted at the man, then pulled Luzhu and walked forward.
As she walked, she spoke quickly, "I think he's not dead yet. Maybe he's from a nearby village."
"There's no one else here. If we don't save him, he'll surely die. Come with me and take a look."
Luzhu wanted to slap herself. It was all her fault for being too talkative. Why did she ask the young lady to look here for no reason?
If the lady can't see, how can she save people?
She said with tears in her eyes:
"Miss, please, we are in this desolate mountain area. What if... what if that person pretends to be dead and then suddenly becomes malicious? What should we do?
Miss, please listen to Luzhu just once. Let’s go back, shall we?
If Sister Yanfei knew that I didn't stop you, she would definitely beat me to death!"
Si Jinxing knew that the little girl was right to worry, as human hearts were unpredictable.
But as a doctor, I still want to check it out, in case he really needs help?
In her previous life, she was a military doctor and had to go on missions frequently, so she had developed a lot of hard skills.
Although it is not certain whether the man is dead or alive, we dare not be careless.
As she walked, she placed her right hand on the orchid birthmark, used her mind to take out a tranquilizer gun, held it in her hand, and felt more confident.
This tranquilizer gun has extremely strong medicinal properties. A wild boar will fall down in just three breaths!
Si Jinxing kept walking, muttering:
"You are only afraid of your sister Yan Fei, but not me, your young lady?
Don't waste any more time, come with me and take a look. If there's anything wrong, we'll turn around and run."
Seeing this, Luzhu had no choice but to follow reluctantly.
After taking two steps, he took out the small sickle from the basket and held it tightly in his hand.
The white sand by the river is soft and comfortable underfoot. Si Jinxing likes this place very much.
But the person who fell into the water in front of her attracted her attention even more.
He was wearing a black robe with blood stains on his chest!
His wet hair mixed with damp mud and sand covered most of his face, leaving only his dry lips, which were now dark purple.
He was poisoned!
Seeing this, Si Jinxing hurried over, quickly took out a fish reed detoxification pill from the pharmacy, and stuffed it into the man's mouth.
Her eyes fell on the arrow on the man's chest, and she instructed Lu Zhu behind her:
"Quick, give him some water. The pill will dissolve when it comes into contact with water, and he will be able to absorb the medicinal effects!"
Luzhu looked at the half-dead man lying on the ground and thought of Mrs. Zhang who had died on a rainy night a few days ago.
