"Ding! Congratulations, host! The male supporting character's health has been restored to 100%. The host has completed the rescue mission and has earned 1000 points. The current total points are 3000!"
Just then, An Jiu sensed something and looked towards the woodshed, where a crisp cracking sound came from.
"Damn it!" An Jiu rushed over with his knife in hand.
Shen Shaoyang ran away after waking up!
Xia Yixin knew it was time to leave, so she grabbed An Jiu and said, "I'll go after them. You stay here and protect Madam Lin."
"Okay, be careful. I'll notify the other brothers to come and support you later." An Jiu was also worried about Lin Shi.
The rain outside was getting heavier, and Xia Yixin didn't want her transformation to fail, so she had to finish quickly.
She rushed into the rain and, guided by the system, quickly found the fleeing Shen Shaoyang. Without saying a word, she knocked him unconscious, picked him up, and carried him, running swiftly towards the place where she sensed the Black Yama Spear.
The Black Yama Spear was indeed at the bottom of the pit. With a thought, the Black Yama Spear at the bottom of the pit automatically came into her hand.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the crackling ice shards mixed with the rain fell on her body, soaking her clothes completely. There were less than two hours left before her transformation, and she had to find a sheltered and secluded place to make further plans.
To be honest, she really didn't want to take this unlucky guy, Shen Shaoyang, with her, and besides, how could she possibly increase her happiness points with her status?
She wondered if she could find a safe place to put him down and then keep a close watch on him.
Then, through the rain, she spotted a crooked, dilapidated temple.
Without thinking, I switched from carrying it on my back to carrying it on my shoulder and slowed down as I walked over.
However, the moment Xia Yixin stepped into the dilapidated temple, she cursed inwardly, "Damn it! I really did catch it from that unlucky bastard Shen Shaoyang!"
The dilapidated temple was none other than Qi Yu and his companions, who were resting.
It's truly a case of escaping one tiger's den only to fall into another.
Because there was already a scout ahead, apart from Qi Yu who was still resting with his eyes closed, the other dozen or so guards dressed as bodyguards all stared intently at the two people who entered the dilapidated temple.
Xia Yixin knew that backing out at this point would be a problem. Damn it, she couldn't worry about anything else. She shouldn't back down!
She steeled herself and carried Shen Shaoyang into the dilapidated temple, finding the furthest corner from them to sit down. She figured if things really didn't work out, she'd just confront them head-on, throwing up some medicine powder and that would be the end of it; she couldn't wait two hours to recover anyway.
That put her in a passive position.
Moreover, there's Shen Shaoyang, an inexplicable figure, whom she doesn't know how to explain. Fortunately, with the rain, Shen Shaoyang's unshaven beard, and the darkness, his appearance is obscured.
Xia Yixin was panicking inside, but she remained calm on the surface.
Anwu and the others watched warily as the man carrying a man in the heavy rain entered and sat down opposite them at a distance. They couldn't see the face of the unshaven man on his back, but they could tell that the man in black was quite skilled in martial arts.
Laymen watch the spectacle, experts watch the details.
The man who entered walked with steady and powerful steps. He carried a man weighing over 100 pounds on his back without panting at all. His aura was restrained, and An Wu felt that this man's skills were unfathomable. If they attacked together, they might not be able to defeat "him".
But he showed no intention to kill them, and didn't seem to be there to ambush them. Perhaps he was just taking shelter from the rain by chance.
However, none of them knew that such a person existed in the martial arts world.
Outside, lightning flashed and thunder roared. Inside the dilapidated temple, cobwebs were everywhere, the Buddha statues were covered in dust, and piles of straw lay on the ground, indicating that people often stopped here to rest.
Just when the tension between the two sides reached its peak.
Shen Shaoyang's loud "Awooo" broke the deathly silence.
Xia Yixin's heart skipped a beat. She turned around, intending to knock him unconscious again, but unexpectedly, Shen Shaoyang was so frightened by her appearance that he shrank back under the dusty table.
"Father! Father! I was wrong, please don't hit me, I really know I was wrong."
"..." Xia Yixin.
"..." Anwu and the others.
Xia Yixin was a little confused, and questioned the system in her mind, "What's wrong with this garbage system???"
"Um... I guess the host knocked him out too hard... and he's gone mad? Haha, it's good that he's mad, it's easy to farm the happiness value of a fool."
Shen Shaoyang's mental age is only that of a five or six-year-old. He remembers being caught playing with crickets by Grand Commandant Shen and getting a severe beating.
Whether it was due to a hazy memory or something else, Shen Shaoyang saw that the person in front of him looked exactly like his father, and he didn't have time to notice that his body was no longer "five or six years old", or where he was.
Xia Yixin didn't dare let Shen Shaoyang say anything more. Ignoring his struggles, she pulled Shen Shaoyang out from under the table and gave him a sedative, so that he wouldn't wake up until at least tomorrow morning.
The dilapidated temple was finally quiet again.
Anwu and the others were both surprised and suspicious. The man in black looked to be only in his twenties, with a scruffy beard. How could the former be the latter's father?
After Xia Yixin had dealt with Shen Shaoyang again, she had an inspiration and stood up on her own initiative.
Sure enough, the moment she made a move, the dozen or so people opposite her immediately became tense and ready to fight.
She walked to the center of the dilapidated temple, clasped her hands in greeting to the group, and said, “I’m sorry to have bothered you all. My younger brother has been mentally challenged since childhood. After he ran away, I finally found him. It’s fate that we are all in this dilapidated temple together.”
She thought An Wu would respond to her, but it turned out to be Qi Yu.
Qi Yu's cold eyes met hers. "May I ask how you are addressed? My name is Huang Qi, and these are my servants and guards."
Xia Yixin naturally switched into her "actress mode" and said frankly, "My name is Yan Jiu."
"I wonder which renowned teacher Brother Yan studied under, judging from your extraordinary demeanor." Qi Yu prepared to probe further.
In fact, Qi Yu knew that "he" was a master as soon as he entered, and strangely enough, "he" made him feel vaguely familiar.
The two started making awkward small talk.
Xia Yixin tried to persuade Qi Yu, and the more she saw his brows furrowed, the more inspired she became.
"...So I've always lived on Peach Blossom Island. If it weren't for my mentally challenged junior brother running away, I wouldn't have left the sect. Now that I've found him, I should go back."
Qi Yu raised an eyebrow slightly. "Brother Yan's master is known as Huang Yaoshi?"
“That’s right, that’s right.” Xia Yixin smiled. “I also have a junior sister named Huang Rong.”
He spoke in a very serious tone, but Qi Yu had never heard of any of the names and found it inexplicably strange.
At this moment, the sound of rain outside gradually subsided, and the rain stopped.
The clouds dispersed, the rain stopped, and the moonlight shone down once more.
After saying goodbye to Xia Yixin, Qi Yu led An Wu and the others away first.
Xia Yixin lied and said she would rest for one night before leaving, but in reality, after they left, Xia Yixin quickly carried the unconscious Shen Shaoyang away.
On the other side.
Not long after Qi Yu and his group left, they happened to run into the Lin family's people who had come out looking for someone. After hearing their explanation of the whole story, Qi Yu's face turned ashen. He realized he had been tricked and immediately returned to the dilapidated temple.
The place has long been deserted.
He led Anwu to follow the footprints.
Unfortunately, the other party was very careful and disappeared after entering the dense forest.
