Chapter 302: Overestimating One's Abilities



The leading man looked around vigilantly, as he didn't want to be beaten to death rashly.

"Boss, do you want to capture this woman and report back first?" The other killers saw that Gongsun Ningxue was exhausted from the journey and had just been hit by several of their attacks. They were afraid that she had no power to resist now.

"Don't alert the enemy, let's go first!" The man's eyes rolled cunningly. If there really were accomplices nearby, it would be better to catch them all in one fell swoop.

Everyone left without paying attention to Gongsun Ningxue, who was lying on the ground. Gongsun Ningxue seemed to have used up her last breath, looking at the sky with a sad face. Was this her fate? Rong Zhen wanted to take her back, but thinking about this, those people would definitely not let him go. He now had many eyes and ears behind him, and if he took her with him, it would probably arouse suspicion.

After thinking about it, he suddenly saw the woman with silver jewelry walking down the mountain. Thinking that he might have missed something, he thought for a moment and walked towards the woman.

"Why are you here again? Why haven't you left yet?" Miao Xiang looked at him vigilantly. She just found out when she went back that she had dropped a herb. This herb was extremely precious to her.

"I want you to help me save someone." Rong Zhen said, and threw a priceless jade pendant into her basket. Before the girl could react, he grabbed her sleeve and walked into the alley in front.

"Did you see the woman lying on the ground?" Rong Zhen asked. Miao Xiang nodded obediently. "Yes, I saw her. Who is that person to you?"

Miao Xiang looked at the handsome man curiously and asked why he didn't go and save her himself if she was really important to him.

"Is this enough?" Rong Zhen hated people asking questions that were too complicated and had to find out everything. He took out an ingot and put it in her hand. Miao Xiang had never seen what an ingot looked like before. She didn't expect that this man was so generous. No wonder she was cheated just now.

"You are really rich. You are from Central China. Are you here to do business?" Miao Xiang's eyes widened. She had never touched silver ingots before, but this time she finally got a bargain. The man looked handsome and was indeed generous.

"Take her back quickly. I don't know anyone here and don't know where to send her." Rong Zhen made up a lie and used Miao Xiang to cure Gongsun Ningxue. Perhaps those people would give up following them.

"Okay." Miao Xiang skipped to Gongsun Ningxue's side and put her hand on her neck. At this time, Gongsun Ningxue's energy and meridians were already very weak. If it was a moment later, she would probably die. She thought of something and suddenly forced the worm in her body onto her body. This green poisonous worm can be said to be a good medicine that specifically dispels the cold poison in the human body.

Er Rongzhen witnessed this strange scene with his own eyes, and was horrified. If he brought this green insect back, would it be able to cure Yunru's illness?

On the other side, Gu Yunru looked at the heavy snow falling outside. He had been away for more than half a month, and he received letter after letter from home.

When he was free, he would open the envelopes and read them. Qingfeng stood at the door, watching Gu Yunru breathe a sigh of relief, and said in a serious tone: "Princess, it's time to take the medicine."

After half a month of treatment, you can see that the pigmentation on her face has faded, but sometimes it would get more and more serious, and Gu Yunru would feel pain that was worse than death, but she gritted her teeth and persevered every time.

"I don't want to drink such bitter medicine anymore." Gu Yunru said lightly, and put the envelopes into the wooden box one by one.

"But..." Qingfeng was interrupted by her before he could finish his words.

"I know what you are going to say. This medicine has no effect. I was willing to drink it in the first place just to make you feel at ease."

Gu Yunru laughed bitterly, Qingfeng sighed helplessly, and said unhappily: "I don't know if the prince has found a solution."

When Gongsun Ningxue woke up, she was lying on a hard wooden couch. A strong smell of grass filled the air around her. There was also a charcoal fire next to her, which drove away the coldness from her body.

"You're finally awake." Miao Xiang walked towards her with a smile on her face.

"You are..." Gongsun Ningxue looked at the woman in front of her wearing silver jewelry and frowned in confusion. Miao Xiang was decocting medicine with a palm leaf fan in her hand. This was a board and wood house made of yellow mud. The surroundings had collapsed and people could barely get in.

"You don't need to care who I am, just remember that I am your savior."

Miao Xiang smiled and looked at the time. The young man said he would come back to pick her up, but he didn't expect that he would just leave her alone for the night. Miao Xiang thought it was a bit strange and approached her, frowning and saying, "Girl, what's wrong with you? Why are you being chased by so many men in black?"

At this point, Gongsun Ningxue was confused. She looked blankly at the woman in front of her who was raising her lips with difficulty. Looking at the heavy snow falling outside, she suddenly realized that winter had already arrived.

"Xiang'er." At this time, a middle-aged man's voice came from outside. His voice was weak and it sounded like he was not feeling well. Sure enough, the man coughed several times in succession.

"Dad, why are you out again? Didn't I tell you to go in and have a good rest?" Miao Xiang hurriedly trotted out, blaming the man with a resentful look on her face. Miao Xiang's father was a famous Gu Master in the Miao area, but he lost all his ability to cultivate Gu after being attacked by Gu one year. Fortunately, his active and studious daughter learned a lot of skills and has been looking for the Gu King to detoxify him.

"I came over to see if the guest has woken up." Miao Xiang's father said in a gentle voice, walking in with a cane to take a look. Gongsun Ningxue propped herself up and wanted to say hello to her father, but she found that her whole body was limp and her limbs were weak. She didn't even have the strength to get up.

"It's not suitable for you to get up now. You'd better lie down to avoid tearing the wound." Miao Xiang reminded him and helped her father sit aside. Miao Xiang's father had an ordinary appearance and was also wearing local clothes and a felt scarf on his head. He had a thin face, sunken cheeks, a straight nose, and cloudy eyes, but he still had some mental strength.

"Thank you, young lady, and the gentleman for your help." Gongsun Ningxue turned sideways to look at the father and daughter and couldn't help but think of her grandfather. Thinking of this, her eyes became moist again. Miao Xiang saw that she suddenly shed two tears for some reason, so she hurriedly stepped forward to check her pulse and found that there was nothing abnormal. She said to her softly, "You don't have to thank me. It was a young master who asked me to save you. He also gave me a large sum of money and said that he would come back to pick you up in three days."
