Chapter 51 The mute girl Xiaoya, isn't she determined to go against the Xiangguo Mansion?
"Let her go." Jiang Lan glanced at the county lieutenant's guards and said casually.
The mute girl was thin and frail, wearing a coarse linen dress with patches on it.
Before this, he had obviously been bullied by a group of villagers who were worried about being implicated, and even his clothes were soaked.
His hair was a mess, with strands sticking to his face, and his hair was a little yellow due to malnutrition.
He was shivering with cold like a frightened quail.
Even if he was released at this moment, he would not dare to raise his head.
"Can you understand me?"
"Don't be afraid, I won't make things difficult for you."
Jiang Lan spoke, his voice calm and gentle.
Perhaps his voice was too gentle, the girl raised her head timidly, looked at him, then nodded, stretched out her slender fingers, and pointed at her mouth, as if to tell him that she could not speak.
Looking at her clear eyes with distinct black and white, Jiang Lan smiled and said, "It's good that you can understand what I say. I know you can't speak."
The mute girl Xiaoya stared at him in a daze, as if it was the first time she saw such a handsome man, with fair skin as white as jade, wearing spotless white clothes, like a god walking out of a painting.
"Do you know who I am?" Jiang Lan looked at her.
The mute girl Xiaoya shook her head, her clear eyes full of doubts.
In fact, she didn't even know why she was captured by the villagers, insulted and splashed with water...
Jiang Lan smiled and asked, "Do you know the Xiangguo Mansion?"
The girl still shook her head in confusion.
"Lin Fan has caught a cold and is seriously injured. A little girl like her cannot save him alone."
"It's a cold winter, if we keep freezing like this, someone will die first."
Jiang Lan took off his coat and gently put it on her body. He looked at the county lieutenant and asked, "The people in the village should know the origin of this girl?"
He was actually a little surprised.
In the original plot, Xiao Yingyue is followed by a mute little boy who is naturally close to nature, has a heart as pure as a child, and has an extremely terrifying talent for alchemy.
Even an experienced alchemist who has been immersed in alchemy for many years would be amazed by his alchemy skills.
If he guessed correctly, Xiao Yingyue's disciple should be the mute girl in front of him.
It seems that Lin Fan was rescued by her accidentally.
"My lord, this girl's name is Xiaoya. Her parents died when she was young and she couldn't speak since she was young. She was raised by her grandmother. However, after her grandmother passed away a few years ago, she has been living alone. Her brain seems to be a little abnormal. She always smiles foolishly at everyone..."
The county lieutenant at the side quickly replied, and it was obvious that he had already inquired about everything before coming.
"Oh? In that case, how can she be an accomplice of the assassin you mentioned?"
"Could it be that you think the reward from my Jiang Mansion is easy to claim and you are trying to trick me?"
Jiang Lan glanced at him calmly, and seeing his face change and cold sweat on his forehead, he smiled casually, "Forget it, I guess you don't have the courage. Find a woman and take this little girl to change her clothes and put on some warmer clothes."
"Yes, sir."
The county lieutenant said immediately, and then asked several village women not far away to come over quickly.
The mute girl Xiaoya stared at Jiang Lan in a daze. Her big, clear eyes were filled with gratitude, and her brows curved, as if she wanted to thank him. But after gesturing for a long time, she could only make babbling sounds.
Jiang Lan just smiled and ignored her.
Soon, several village women came over tremblingly and took her away.
The next moment, Jiang Lan was not surprised when he felt waves of luck and power surging in the Niwan Palace.
This mute girl Xiaoya is also a person with great luck. The small act of kindness just now made her feel closer to herself, and she gained good luck from it.
People like the protagonist can really meet people with great luck wherever they go.
Even after being seriously injured, one can still be saved by someone with great luck.
It is not so much that the protagonist has amazing luck, but rather that he is favored by luck. The people with great luck in this world, as well as opportunities and fortune, will gather around him according to a certain trend.
"Sir, the assassin Lin Fan is injured and has fled to the mountains. He will not be able to get far. We will search everywhere and block the mountains. The county governor has also received the news and is sending a large number of patrol guards to come."
"Under this tight net, the assassin will have no way to escape." The knight stepped forward and said.
"No hurry. Lin Fan is so seriously injured that he will not be able to move for a short period of time. I am a little surprised that he can recover so quickly."
Jiang Lan waved his hand and said calmly, "Go search the mute girl's house to see if there are any clues."
The mute girl Xiaoya is in Qingshui Village, and Xiao Yingyue, the supreme elder of Yaowang Valley, must also be nearby.
After receiving the order, several knights immediately grabbed a villager, rode on the ferocious beast, flew away on the clouds, and let the beast lead the way to the house of the mute girl Xiaoya.
Jiang Lan asked several villagers if there were any famous doctors nearby.
How could the villagers dare to hide anything? They told the doctor everything they knew. Not only that, they even told the villagers who knew a little about medicine.
"In Qingshan Village, fifty miles away, there is indeed a famous doctor who is called the Medical Miracle by the villagers." Jiang Lan was not surprised at all.
Soon, several knights came back with an opened potion and a stone pot for boiling the medicine.
The smell of traditional Chinese medicine was strong and it was black in color, which showed that the medicine had been boiled.
"Sir, we found these things in the mute girl's house..." Several people reported and handed over the potions and stone pots.
Jiang Lan just glanced at it, understood it in his heart, and said calmly, "Catch all the doctors in the nearby villages. Knowing that Lin Fan and I have a grudge, they still dare to leave medicine to treat him. I want to see who is so bold."
"Yes, sir."
Divine rainbows flew away quickly.
The rest of the knights were guarding around, and each of the ferocious beasts they rode raised their heads and roared, with scales and armor all over them, looking terrifying.
All the villagers in Qingshui Village were terrified and trembling with anxiety. The county lieutenant also had cold sweat on his forehead and his face turned pale.
If the mute girl Xiaoya saved Lin Fan because she didn't understand, then the person who left the medicine for Lin Fan to cure his illness was committing a crime knowingly.
After all, Xiaoya was just a mute. How did she tell the doctor about Lin Fan's symptoms? It was obvious that the doctor saw Lin Fan's injuries in person before treating him.
But since he saw Lin Fan's injuries, he must have guessed his identity.
Especially in the past few days, wanted notices for Lin Fan have been posted in every village and town under the jurisdiction of Jiangling County.
All villagers were strictly warned that if they encountered any suspicious injured persons, they should report to the authorities immediately.
The doctors in the clinic, the owners of the drug stores and others were personally warned by government officials.
Anyone with serious injuries, regardless of their identity, who comes for medical treatment must report it immediately.
But now someone has disobeyed orders and secretly left medicine to treat Lin Fan. Isn't this an attempt to go against the Prime Minister's Mansion? (End of this chapter)
