Chapter 10 What’s wrong, sir?
"Now I have to inconvenience you by having you lie in the carriage. Your injuries are too severe to be moved easily. You can do it tomorrow..."
"Thank you... girl,"
"You'd better save your energy and thank me when you get better."
Mu Jingxing looked at Song Yu's exposed eyes and subconsciously replied "OK".
Song Yu had already ripped open Mu Jingxing's clothes on his chest. The sword wound on his heart had already scabbed over. This man's physique was much better than she had imagined.
However, there were several sword scars of varying sizes on his chest, which suggested that he was often hunted.
Tsk, that’s so miserable.
Thinking of the scene in the poisonous forest in his previous life, Song Yu subconsciously became more careful and attentive when inserting the needle.
Afraid that he would prick the wrong acupuncture point, he would die with one shot.
Mu Jingxing looked at the emotions in her eyes, and his sparse brows couldn't help but bulge slightly.
How come she seemed to recognize herself?
But it was the first time he saw her, and these beautiful eyes exposed to the outside also looked unfamiliar to him.
Mu Jingxing quickly noticed the red mole at the corner of Song Yu's left eye, and a face instantly appeared in his mind.
"Puff!" A dark red liquid overflowed from his mouth.
"Miss, is he okay?" Bai Lan quickly wiped the blood off Mu Jingxing.
"Nothing."
Song Yu looked at Mu Jingxing and said, "My dear, your life is saved. You will be able to recover as before if you rest well for half a month. However, don't use your internal energy lightly during this period."
"Okay." Mu Jingxing was surprised to find that his throat was a little sore and hoarse as soon as he spoke.
Song Yu hurriedly asked Bai Lan to give him some water.
"Sir, your sore throat is caused by the internal injuries I just treated for you. Try to speak less for the next three days. I have something to ask you. If you agree, nod. If you don't, shake your head."
"Okay." Mu Jingxing said the word "Okay" and nodded.
Seeing this, Song Yu pursed his lips and said, "This is the Yunyin Inn halfway up the mountain, quite a distance from the Xuancheng Post Station. There are two people staying in the inn now. Are they the ones chasing you?"
The person before him was his savior, and rushing over to give him acupuncture at this hour was enough to show her courage. He had nothing to hide, so he nodded truthfully.
"Since I saved you, I'll be a good person to the end. Tomorrow after breakfast we'll head south and return home. You can leave when we're somewhere safe, okay?"
Mu Jingxing was afraid of implicating his savior, so he planned to leave before dawn and then find her to repay her. He should have shaken his head but nodded his chin.
"Okay, then. It's settled."
By the time Mu Jingxing reacted, Song Yu had already turned around and removed the needle for him.
Due to the fatigue from the recent journeys and the fact that today was another day of anxiety, Song Yu was tired and sleepy. He left in a hurry after removing the needle and did not even look at Mu Jingxing again.
Mu Jingxing couldn't shake his head anymore.
"Sir, my lady asked me to stay and take care of you. Are you hungry?" Asi came in with a bowl of porridge on his expressionless face.
"Thank...thank you."
The two masters returned to their rooms. Bai Lan couldn't wait to say, "I just saw him up close. He has some color on his face. He looks better than our eldest young master Rui."
Song Yu frowned. If it weren't for what happened in the previous life, Song Rui would definitely be a good brother as gentle as jade, and a young man admired by all the village girls.
After seeing Song Rui's true face, I found him disgusting.
"This guy is much more handsome than Song Rui."
"Yes, Miss, you are right. He is a hundred times more handsome than Master Rui! He also looks more knowledgeable than Master Rui and should also be able to practice martial arts."
Song Yu looked at Bai Lan, who looked completely infatuated. "Don't judge a person by his appearance. He might be a playboy, a dandy, or even a fugitive."
"Ah?" Bai Lan was startled, then a look of worry appeared on her face. "Then what should I do?"
"What I mean is that we're out here, in an unfamiliar place. No matter who you meet, don't assume they're good just because they look kind. We can't tell if they're human or ghost, so you have to be wary of them. Do you understand?"
"Oh, I see. Huh? Miss, these are the great principles that Madam often instructs us on. You just listened to them before."
That was in her previous life. She was silly and simple, and she grew up under the love of her parents and masters.
The only imperfection is that Chen Chunhua doesn't like her, but likes her brother Song Rui, and treats Song Rui like the apple of her eye.
At that time, Song Yu thought that Chen Chunhua, like most families in the village, was interested in a son.
At that time, she was just feeling resentful.
Now the resentment has turned into hatred.
"...most of what the elders say is true, and we should keep it in mind."
"Oh, I understand. I'll go get some water right away."
"After you finish cleaning up, go rest next door."
"OK."
Bai Lan walked out of the room and when she turned around to close the door, she saw Song Yu sitting at the table with his head down.
It was a very common scene, but tonight, Bai Lan felt that her young lady was worried.
Did something happen in Wushuang Temple a few days ago?
The next morning, Ye Long woke up and saw that it was already bright outside. He was so scared that he quickly got out of bed.
"Zhang Hu!"
"I'm coming." Zhang Hu entered the room carrying the food. "Don't worry, Brother Long. It's only noon now. Everything is normal. No one has checked in yet. However, two guests have checked out and are now having dinner in the dining hall."
"Which two families?" Ye Long took the porridge and drank it in big gulps.
"That's the master and his servant, and the guest named Zhang in the room opposite them."
At this time, the voice of Shopkeeper Li was heard from downstairs, "Miss, come back next time and I'll give you a 20% discount."
"I don't know when the next time will be. I wish the shopkeeper a prosperous business."
"May you have a safe journey, young lady."
After Song Yu finished speaking, he quickly pulled Bai Lan into the carriage.
"A Si, let's go."
When Ye Long saw the Song family's carriage heading south, the uneasy feeling in his heart was completely dispelled.
"Zhang Hu, Ye Long!"
Bai Lan looked over and saw that it was the leader of the two gangsters. She was so scared that she quickly whispered to Ah Si, "Ah Si, hurry up."
Song Yu hurriedly said, "Go at a normal speed, more naturally. The more anxious you are, the more you'll reveal your true identity."
"OK."
Asi drove away in the carriage slowly.
Wei Peng looked at the carriage going away and quickly sent someone to investigate.
At this time, Ye Long and Zhang Hu rushed over and said, "Boss, we haven't found any suspicious people since yesterday, and there's nothing unusual about the carriage."
Upon hearing this, Wei Peng looked at the men who had stopped the Song family's carriage, and the men shook their heads at him.
"You can go now."
Ah Si smiled and said, "Thank you, sir."
Then he cracked the whip hard, and the carriage quickly disappeared from the sight of Wei Peng and others.
Wei Peng estimated that Mu Jingxing had most likely entered the poisonous forest, and even if he had antidote pills, he would not be able to survive for three days.
"Okay, you two continue to watch here, and we'll meet up at the entrance of the poisonous forest the day after tomorrow."
"yes!"
Wei Peng then took his men to the poisonous forest.
Seeing that these people had gone to the entrance of the poisonous forest, Song Yu knew it was impossible to enter the forest again to look for poisonous grass that could prevent the corpses from decaying, so he went straight south.
One day later, after noon, Song Yu and others arrived at Li County and released Mu Jingxing.
"Sir, it should be safe here. This is a warming tonic. Take it morning and night for three days. Just take good care of yourself from now on."
Song Yu hurriedly stuffed a few prescriptions with banknotes into Mu Jingxing's hands and said, "Okay, let's say goodbye now."
After saying this, Song Yu hurriedly got on the carriage.
"Wait a minute, young lady." Mu Jingxing hurried forward, grabbed Song Yu's wrist and then quickly let go.
"What's wrong, sir?"
