"Yes, yes..."
"Heh, you really don't know what's good for you." Nan Lingqin suddenly sneered, "Acting in front of me, do you think you're an Oscar winner?"
As soon as Nan Lingqin finished speaking, she flicked her sleeve and kicked the city guard away again, sending him crashing to the ground.
"Ah, you...you killed him, and now I can't find out where my brother is."
"If your brother ran away, wouldn't he be afraid that his deeds would be exposed? Wouldn't he send people to look for him? Would he still dare to hold another grand festival? Now, if your brother really ran away, wouldn't he come looking for you? Even if he is seriously injured, he would fight to the death to spread the word about the city magistrate's evil deeds."
"You, you mean..."
"Sis, we found it."
Minglan, who had just left, returned, carrying someone in her hand.
It was clearly a man, covered in blood, but still breathing.
"Brother...brother..."
The shopkeeper rushed over and hugged her tightly.
Seeing this, Nan Lingqin looked at Yuwen Yao and said, "We've successfully completed our mission and are now making our retirement."
"Alright, Minglan, once you've packed up here, go back to the Xue family and take care of your own important life matters."
Nan Lingqin flicked her sleeve and pulled Yuwen Yao away.
"By the way, write a letter to Danling and tell him everything that's happened here. He'll know how to handle it."
"Yes, sister."
Yuwen Yao remained silent throughout, until this moment when he gently and helplessly embraced Nan Lingqin's waist, saying, "Qin'er, prenatal education."
"Yes, I promise I won't be harsh in front of the child next time."
"You must be very gentle in front of me."
"good"
"Don't hide it from me, and don't use cloud magic on me while I'm asleep."
"Okay, sure."
Of course, there are exceptions.
Nan Lingqin and Yuwen Yao walked away, unaware of what happened after they left.
The blood-covered man slightly opened his eyes, a chilling glint flashing within them, clear and sharp, causing the shopkeeper's heart to race with fear. The fear quickly turned to overwhelming emotion, and she grabbed the man tightly, crying, "Ah, brother, brother... you're alive! It's so good! I've finally found you..."
Tears and snot covered his entire chest.
The man's gaze shifted downwards, looking at the young woman who was throwing herself at him. His eyes flickered for a moment, then he sighed, and then... he was utterly devastated.
"Why is your leg lame...?"
"Ah, brother, your legs, your legs..."
"Your leg is injured, and it looks like it got worse because it wasn't bandaged for a long time. I treated it when I found you. If you take good care of it afterward, it should recover to normal within a year or two. But if you want to practice martial arts afterward, it will be quite tough."
Minglan spoke each word carefully, simply stating the facts without a trace of sympathy.
After all, this man had nothing to do with him; he was merely following his sister's orders.
"Thank you, thank you."
The shopkeeper hurriedly thanked Ming Lan, who nodded slightly without saying much, and then pulled the city guard away.
Shopkeeper Er stared at Ming Lan's retreating figure for quite a while before snapping out of his daze.
When she came to her senses, she saw her older brother staring at her legs with a bitter look on his face.
"Brother, it'll only be a year and a half at most. You'll definitely get better. It's good enough that you're alive."
Shopkeeper Er then threw herself into the man's arms.
Holy crap!
The man was completely bewildered.
Weren't people in ancient times supposed to be very reserved? This girl has hugged him twice already, okay?
They're not biologically related, okay?
However, it seems this younger sister doesn't know this.
Oh dear, he's already in this state after just transmigrating. How is he going to get out of here? Without her, who will take care of him?
"Oh, by the way, who were those woman and man just now?"
Shopkeeper Er suddenly lifted his head from the man's arms, looking puzzled.
The man looked at her and rolled his eyes. "How should I know?"
"They saved you."
Haha!
It would have been better not to save me at all. Maybe I'd be perfectly fine in modern times, and the car accident wouldn't have hit me.
"elder brother."
The second shopkeeper called out again, "I feel like there's something strange about you."
"Oh, I've been locked up for too long. You, call my name and let me wake up."
"Your name?"
"Um."
"Feng Yu."
Feng Yu!
Such an old-fashioned name, well, this time travel isn't worth it.
Feng Yu patted the back of his head, then looked at his sister and said, "Let's go home."
"Home?"
Fengling was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head in dejection. "Brother, we have no home anymore. I sold the house a long time ago so we could come find you."
Wind Jade...
Damn it, do you have to joke around with him?
“…Okay, then help me up, let’s hurry and catch up with that guy Fang just met, what’s his name, Minglan?”
"That man from earlier?" Fengling thought for a moment. "The black guy from earlier, you know?"
"Yes, the one with the dark complexion. We're penniless and powerless right now, so we can only find someone to back us up, you know?"
"oh."
Fengling was overjoyed to find her brother, so of course she listened to him in everything. Thus, she helped her brother catch up with Minglan.
Ming Lan was completely bewildered. She had just secretly sent a message to Nan Lingqin when she saw the brother and sister behind her. Her brows furrowed slightly. "What are you doing following me?"
"Sir, look at you, you are handsome and dashing, and I am quite charming, why don't we go together?"
What is the logical relationship between these two?
“Yes, yes, let’s go together. By the way, let’s ask who the woman and man who helped us just now were,” Feng Yu added.
“They…” Ming Lan’s expression turned extremely solemn at the thought of Nan Lingqin and Yuwen Yao. After a pause, she spoke slowly, “They are people you shouldn’t ask about, nor do you need to ask about.”
"Is it that profound...?"
Feng Yu gave a soft snort. What's so great about me? I'm a modern-day internet celebrity, okay? I've acted in several TV series and movies, okay?
However, this guy named Ming Zi really does have a classical and elegant appearance, and even a heroic air about him...
"Brother, you're drooling."
"Quick, take me to change my clothes, I want to welcome the new students."
Feng Yu looked at her brother and felt that he seemed different, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
"Sir, please wait for us. We'll settle accounts with the city garrison after we come out."
Minglan watched the brother and sister rush into a shop ahead, her brows furrowing slightly. She then looked at the city lord, who was on the verge of death, in her hand. "You're lucky. If I had to take action, you would have met a gruesome end."
Hehehe, you dare to hurt the original owner like this? Watch me show you eight, eight, eight eight ways to die so you can understand true cruelty.
