When Xiao Yan learned that Yao Yanxin had sent people to rescue her, she immediately relaxed. She had been thinking about how to repay the person who saved her life.
Now everything's great, I can just let my best friend handle Ruan Shengpeng! That's wonderful!
They didn't dare to delay at all and made it to the county in one go. Fortunately, there were no obstacles along the way.
This is also the result of Hawkeye's scheme. The village chief and his son are having a conflict. As a father, he feels that his son is beating him without any mercy and wants him dead!
This is a challenge to his authority; how can he let it go so easily? Won't everyone in the village follow suit?
Once the village chief recovered, he was determined to severely punish his son!
The son was also aggrieved, thinking that his father was old and didn't know how to make progress or plan for the welfare of the young people in the village. He had three women right in front of him, yet he still let them go!
This is tantamount to causing the villagers to be childless and without descendants; it is a great act of filial impiety against our ancestors!
The older generation naturally supports the village chief; they don't want their authority challenged by the younger generation.
The younger generation supports the younger generation and believes that the older generation should step down from the stage of power.
With two forces locked in a struggle, there was naturally no spare energy to pursue them.
To be on the safe side, they didn't dare stay at a guesthouse. This village was so arrogant; it was hard to say they didn't have influence in the county. Their group of children, with their injuries and bandit-like behavior, could easily be reported.
The second brother had a better idea. He quickly found a courtyard where there was only an old man. The old man wasn't afraid when he saw them and quickly opened the door to let them in.
Seeing that they included both wounded and women, he knew the situation was dire and quickly went over to help: "I just boiled some hot water, you should go and wash up!"
The eagle-eyed man said to Xiao Yan, "Go wash up first!"
Fortunately, Xiao Yan still had her package, which was a thoughtful gift from Yao Tongjia! Because Xiao Yan was going out, she specially prepared this package that she could carry on her back.
When they were running away, Xiao Yan had been carrying it tightly on her back.
She just didn't know if the package was waterproof. If it wasn't, that would be a big problem, since she didn't have any spare clothes!
With a nervous heart, Xiao Yan carefully opened the bag and gently touched the clothes inside. Thank goodness, the clothes were still dry!
It seems this bag is quite waterproof! Xiao Yan was secretly delighted and immediately picked up the package and headed towards the place the old man had indicated.
Upon arriving at her destination, she first put down the package, then took out a bucket and carefully washed it two or three times to ensure it was clean and hygienic.
Next, she filled the bucket halfway with hot water. Considering that other people might need to wash up later, Xiao Yan scooped in some cold water to heat it up as well.
When she finished washing up and went outside, just as she was about to wash her clothes, she was shocked to find a shocking scene in front of her—a muscular man covered in sweat!
The muscular man clearly hadn't expected Xiao Yan to appear so quickly. He seemed a little embarrassed and at a loss. He hurriedly dried himself and quickly put on his clothes!
Although Xiao Yan quickly turned away from looking at the muscular man's wet body, the scene she had just witnessed was still firmly etched in her mind. He truly looked slim in clothes but was muscular when undressed.
This eagle-eyed man was all muscle, with eight-pack abs on his chest. Thinking of this, Xiao Yan quickly shook her head, shaking out the yellow waste in her mind.
She couldn't disrespect her savior! She turned around to say something, but noticed that her savior was walking with his arms and legs slightly out of sync!
What's going on? Is my savior a shy person? This is hilarious!
Xiao Yan was trying not to laugh, but as she looked at the eagle-eyed man's back, she knew that he was a very perceptive person, so her movements became even more stiff.
Xiao Yan couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter. The eagle-eyed man stumbled and almost fell. A look of annoyance flashed in his eyes. Had he been... teased?
He stood up, turned around, and glared at Xiao Yan. Normally a very dignified person, he looked completely lacking in presence because his hair was wet and drooping.
Instead, it acted like a big, pouty dog begging for petting, which Xiao Yan couldn't tolerate. Of course, she couldn't stand it, and then Xiao Yan burst into loud laughter, laughing so hard she couldn't straighten her back!
Fearing that others would hear the laughter and come out to see what was going on, the eagle-eyed man had no choice but to grit his teeth and leave!
After laughing, Xiao Yan finished washing her clothes and went to the room of the doctors who were unconscious. This time, she carefully took their pulses and finally understood their condition.
It wasn't convenient to go out to buy medicine right now, so she took out her silver needles and gave them several acupuncture treatments. The first one to wake up was Dean Zhou Kunran.
As soon as Zhou Kunran opened his eyes, he sat up abruptly. He had really underestimated the child. It was just a toddler who had just learned to walk. He suddenly thought of his two unborn children.
I was distracted for a moment, and someone took the opportunity to attack me. How embarrassing!
Upon seeing Xiao Yan: "Where are we now? Are you all alright?"
Xiao Yan put away the silver needles: "We're all fine. Yao Yanxin has sent people to rescue us!"
"I'm sorry, I didn't investigate properly and brought you all here. Luckily you're all alright, otherwise I would be very responsible!"
"Who devised the plan to come here? Who investigated the situation here? You should look around at the people around you; who wants your life?"
Zhou Kunran's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that someone was starting to act up. They really were taking him for a kitten just because he wasn't showing his teeth!
Just then, someone outside called out, "Everyone, come out and eat!"
Zhou Kunran stood up, swaying slightly. Xiao Yan, worried, said, "Why don't you stay here, and I'll go get you something to eat?"
"No need, I'm going out to thank them too!"
Upon seeing the eagle-eyed man, Zhou Kunran extended his hand: "Thank you for your rescue!"
The eagle-eyed man shook hands: "No need to thank me, I'm just following orders from my superior. You should thank my boss!"
"You should thank your boss, and you should thank your boss too. I'm guessing your boss just asked you to save Dr. Xiao, right? If you're just following orders, then you've already completed your mission as long as you get Dr. Xiao away!"
"That's right. This is the first time I've ever been soft-hearted. What's wrong with you? You're a veteran, how could you get knocked unconscious!"
"My weaknesses have been thoroughly investigated. They used children to lower my guard. It seems I'll have to harden my heart in the future!" Zhou Kunran said with a wry smile.
The eagle-eyed man understood. Thinking back to his momentary moment of weakness, he seemed to have said to Zhou Kunran, "Your weakness must not be discovered, or you won't even know how you died!"
Actually, he was saying this to himself. People like them who live on the edge of a knife really can't have the slightest weakness, or they won't even know how they died!
