Chapter 69 The Benefactor Who Saved Her

Jiang Jiu was shocked and was about to take off the man's mask when he was stopped by Nanny Qian.

"Girl, don't move. We can't take advantage of others' misfortune."

Jiang Jiu also pulled Aunt Qian to confirm again and again: "Aunt, do you still remember when I was fourteen years old and secretly went to the capital? I encountered robbers on the road, and it was he who saved me?"

Because the journey was long, Nanny Qian did not go with them. Jiang Jiu, Xiao Yimo and Chu Yu went alone.

Although Xiao Yimo hired Cang Jiu's killer to protect her along the way, it was this man who saved her when she encountered robbers.

Aunt Qian looked at him carefully and said, "Girl, there are many men wearing masks in the world. How can you be sure it's him?"

Jiang Jiu pointed at the man's eyebrows under the mask: "Look, he has a mole between his eyebrows..."

Aunt Qian took a closer look and found that there was indeed a black mole in front of the eyebrow. Dark eyebrows are usually not easy to be found.

Jiang Jiu took a look at the man's body and found that he had two knife wounds. Although neither was fatal, he had lost too much blood and fell into a coma.

Jiang Jiu and Nanny Qian helped the man up and sent him directly to the Guanyin Temple.

The abbot of the Guanyin Temple saw Jiang Jiu carrying an injured patient, and asked the young monk to go down the mountain to invite a doctor.

After much trouble until noon, they finally rescued the person.

The little monk took a set of monk's clothes for the man to change into. Jiang Jiu also plucked up his courage and took off the man's mask with trepidation.

The man was very handsome. After seeing Lu Yunyang's handsomeness, other men could not be considered handsome, but this man's bone structure was still very beautiful.

Especially his broad pectoral muscles and strong abdominal muscles. If it weren't for the knife wound on his abdominal muscles, his complete muscles would be even more perfect. And his waist is thin and long, and his well-proportioned muscles feel particularly good to the touch.

Just as Jiang Jiu's slender fingers slid towards the mysterious triangle area, her hand was suddenly held by someone.

"Have you seen enough..."

Jiang Jiu touched all the way down and felt like he was drooling.

I looked up suddenly, met a pair of eyes as cold as ice, and smiled awkwardly.

"I saved you. You were injured. I was applying medicine and bandaging you. I didn't mean to take advantage of you."

Jiang Jiu quickly applied ointment on the wound and bandaged it carefully before reluctantly putting on the man's clothes and covering him with a quilt.

Bringing medicine over, "You were injured and lost too much blood. You fainted beside the bamboo forest in front of the temple. Now that you're awake, you should be fine. How do you feel?"

The man wanted to sit up, but he felt dizzy. He struggled for a while but failed, and was held down by Jiang Jiu.

"Don't worry, I'll feed you."

The man was about to say no, but he saw Jiang Jiu took out a reed. The center of the reed was hollow, which was just convenient for him to drink the medicine.

But the man still looked at Jiang Jiu warily, and Jiang Jiu took a sip himself: "It's not poisonous, don't worry."

The man waited for a while and made sure it was not poisonous before drinking it in one gulp.

Jiang Jiu smiled slightly: "I don't know you, and I have no grudge against you, so how could I harm you?"

"What's your name and where do you live? I see you're wearing a mask that shows you're from a background..."

Unexpectedly, the man closed his eyes tightly, without even looking at Jiang Jiu, and said quietly: "Everyone who knows my name is dead."

Jiang Jiu's hand holding the tea trembled slightly: "Okay, then you don't need to say anything."

The man was very surprised and opened his eyes suddenly. He saw that Jiang Jiu had indeed put the tea back and was about to leave.

Then he spoke again: "My name is Zhao Li."

Jiang Jiu paused for a moment and asked, "Are you going to kill me?"

Zhao Li stared at her for a while with his narrow eyes: "You saved me, I won't kill you."

Jiang Jiu was relieved: "Then you have a good rest, I won't disturb you."

Her intuition told Jiang Jiu that this man was dangerous and she had to stay away from him.

However, before I took two steps, he called me.

"Wait a moment……"

"Is there something?" Jiang Jiu blinked her bright eyes.

"Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry." Zhao Li felt a little embarrassed, with a blush on her pale face.

Jiang Jiu was also hungry, so he smiled and said, "Yes, I'll get it for you."

But Jiang Jiu did not step into Zhao Li's room again, but asked the little monk to bring him

After having his meal, Jiang Jiu started his annual chanting.

Don’t know who to save?

Jiang Jiu is actually not familiar with these ancient people.

As a baby she had remembered three faces, but now only Nanny Qian was left.

Then let’s save the present self and family.

After reciting the Heart Sutra three times, Jiang Jiu felt much calmer.

She looked up suddenly, only to find Zhao Li leaning against the door railing with his arms folded, looking at her leisurely with his lips curled. His eyes were focused and absent-minded, as if he wanted to see through her.

The monk's clothes were a little too big for him, as if they were hanging on his body. He looked neither a monk nor a layman, with a unique vibe.

Noticing Jiang Jiu's gaze, he suddenly woke up, the smile on his lips disappeared, and his eyes instantly became cold and indifferent.

"You're up, are you feeling better?"

Zhao Li did not answer her, but glanced at her tied-up black hair, with an expression that contained an indescribable loneliness and sadness.

"Are you married?"

Jiang Jiu blinked, blinked again, and nodded slightly, not understanding what was going on.

"Since you are married, why doesn't your husband accompany you..."

Zhao Li's tone was cold and contained a hint of resentment.

Jiang Jiu didn't know how to explain his situation. After thinking for a while, he replied, "I am just one of his many concubines. I am not worthy of his company."

"Then leave him..." Suddenly, Jiang Jiu's wrist was tightly grasped by Zhao Li.

There was an indescribable emotion in his eyes, but the hot light was quickly suppressed by him, and after a while, it was as calm as water.

"I mean, if you're unhappy, I can take you away from here because you saved my life."

Hmm? Jiang Jiu stared at his features for a long time, then suddenly asked, "Have we met before?"

"No." The answer was too quick and Zhao Li couldn't help but turn away.

Jiang Jiu held his face with her hands: "No, look carefully again, why do you feel so familiar, we obviously don't know each other..."

"Yes, we didn't know each other before." Zhao Li pulled her hand away and turned away.

Jiang Jiu didn't know what Zhao Li meant. He always felt that he was hesitant to speak. However, since he didn't want to say it, Jiang Jiu didn't intend to force him to speak.

"Oh, but I really..."

Jiang Jiu raised her foot to chase after him, but she underestimated the threshold of the temple, her foot tripped, and she fell forward.

Zhao Li reacted quickly, and with his long arms, he pulled Jiang Jiu into his arms.

A familiar figure suddenly flashed through Jiang Jiu's mind: "You are the one who followed me secretly..."

Zhao Li was guessed by Jiang Jiu, and just when he was about to let her go, he was grabbed tightly by Jiang Jiu.

"I don't know you at all. Why are you following me? Who are you? Who sent you? What do you want by following me?"

A series of questions came out of his mouth, catching Zhao Li off guard.

Just when he didn't know how to answer, a loud laugh came from not far away.

"What are you doing?"
