After cutting open the wound, Feng Qing used a special technique to squeeze out the poisonous blood from the old man's wound. She didn't stop until the blood turned from black to red. She went to the side to pick a few herbs, chewed them up and applied them to the old man's wound.
"Thank you, little girl..." The old man looked at Feng Qing with gratitude. If it weren't for her, he would have died here today.
Feng Qing shook her head and smiled, putting the dagger back into the bamboo basket, "Where do you live? I'll take you back." She found that there was a faint aura on the old man's body. This aura was not emitted by the old man himself, but the aura of an object he often touched.
"Okay..." The old man nodded gratefully. The snake venom was gone, but he was still very weak. It was raining and the mountain road was slippery. It would be very difficult for him to walk back alone.
Feng Qing helped the old man up, picked up the bamboo basket on the ground, and bent down, "Old man, come up, I'll carry you down."
"You can't do this, you can't do this..." The old man waved his hands quickly. How could he let a girl carry him on her back?
"It's okay, come on up, I can carry you. The mountain road is slippery, it would be bad if you fall." Feng Qing smiled sincerely, and her eyes, which were squeezed to a small size due to her fatness, now shone like stars.
The old man hesitated for a moment, then lay on Feng Qing's back and said, "Then I'll trouble you."
Feng Qing shook her head and smiled, then stood up and carried the old man down the mountain. Her steps were steady and were not affected at all by the slippery mountain road. The last bit of spiritual energy from the old man had been absorbed by her. Although it was a drop in the bucket, it was better than nothing.
"Little girl, are you from Liujiadun?"
"Um."
"How old are you?"
"eighteen."
"Is there Xu's family?" The old man's eyes, which were full of traces of time, looked at Feng Qing with a hint of appreciation in his eyes. The girl is a little fat, but she has a good heart, and her boy has just reached the age of marriage. In another month, the brat should come to see them.
"Old man, where do you live?" Feng Qing changed the subject. The original owner knew everyone in Liujiadun. Since he had no impression of this old man, the other party should be from the next village.
"I'm from Wanghua Village, and I live at the east end of the village. Little girl, please put me down, I can walk by myself." After all, the other party was a little girl, and if people saw her carrying him on her back, they would gossip.
Feng Qing didn't object. He squatted down, put the old man down, and helped him walk towards his home. Now that they were at the foot of the mountain, she just had to support him.
Along the way, the two of them didn't meet anyone.
Feng Qing had just helped the old man into the yard when an old woman came out of the house. Seeing the old man being helped back, she rushed over and asked, "Old Lu, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, I was just bitten by a snake. The little girl has already treated the wound for me." The old man waved his hand and looked at Feng Qing with a smile, "Feng girl, go sit in the house for a while."
"Thank you so much, little girl. Please come in and sit down." The old woman also hurriedly invited her.
Feng Qing followed the two men into the house. The furnishings in the room were simple, with an octagonal table, four benches, a cabinet against the wall, and several pictures of leaders on the wall.
"Feng girl, drink some sugar water." The old woman came out of the kitchen with a cup of sugar water and handed it to Feng Qing with a smile. In that era of material scarcity, treating guests with sweet soup was considered a sign of respect for the guests.
"Thank you!" Feng Qing took the sugar water and drank a few sips. She was indeed very thirsty now, and she had not drunk a sip of water since she woke up.
The old man winked at the old woman, who nodded in understanding and walked into the room.
Soon, she came out with a small wooden box.
Feng Qing sensed some spiritual energy and glanced at the small wooden box in the old woman's hand.
"Feng girl, this is for you. Thank you for saving my old man." The old woman handed the small wooden box to Feng Qing.
Feng Qing reached out to take the small wooden box and opened it, only to see a jade bracelet inside, with spiritual energy overflowing from the jade bracelet.
Her fingers lightly touched the jade bracelet, absorbing all the spiritual energy on it. A crystal clear little bead in Feng Qing's dantian immediately emitted a dazzling light.
Feng Qing was overjoyed, her space opened up.
She handed the small wooden box back to the old woman and said, "I can't accept this. I'm going back." After saying that, she got up and walked out before the old couple could react. Now she wants to find a place to enter the space and take a look.
"Feng girl!"
"Feng girl!" The two old men hurriedly ran out of the door, but Feng Qing was nowhere to be found.
"What a good girl!"
"When Aye comes back, I want to introduce Feng girl to him." The old man expressed his plan. Such a good girl can't be missed.
"Feng Qing is a good girl, but her figure..." The old woman also thought that Feng Qing was a good girl, but her grandson was grown up and they could no longer make decisions for him.
"Okay, let's wait until Aye comes back and let them meet him first."
"Um."
Feng Qing had no idea what the two old men were thinking, so he found a deserted place and slipped into the space.
The space was still the same as before, without any changes. There were bamboo houses and spiritual springs nearby, mountains and rivers in the distance, and large spiritual fields planted with various herbs and fruit trees that she had collected.
"With these herbs, I won't have any worries about not being able to practice." Feng Qing picked an apple and walked into the spiritual spring while eating it.
The temperature of the spiritual spring water was just right. Feng Qing lay in the spring and felt that all the pores in her body opened up at that moment. She closed her eyes comfortably.
Before I knew it, I fell asleep.
After finishing her work in the fields, Aunt Zhou recorded her work points and walked towards home. When she passed by the river, she wanted to wash her hands, but Feng Qing's words suddenly flashed through her mind and she hesitated.
At this moment, a loud "bang" came from the river bank ahead.
Aunt Zhou was startled and ran over to take a look. She saw that a large section of the riverbank had collapsed. She was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat. She would wash her hands here after work every day. If Feng Yatou hadn't reminded her today, she would have fallen into the river. There is no one by the river now, and if she falls in, the consequences will be disastrous. She must go and thank Feng Yatou later, as she saved her life.
Passing Feng Qing's house, Aunt Zhou was about to go in when she heard Wang Guixiang's scolding, "I'm telling you, when that damn girl comes back, you are not allowed to protect her, or I will take my son back to my parents' home."
"I understand." Feng Yusheng sat at the table smoking a pipe with an indifferent expression.
"Tomorrow I will find someone to act as a matchmaker and marry that dead girl off so that she doesn't have to be an eyesore at home." Thinking of what happened in the morning, Wang Guixiang was so angry that her teeth were itching. When that damn girl comes back, she will definitely teach her a lesson.
