Seeing her looking so relaxed and content.
Boss Cheng's hand holding the knife trembled slightly; he was actually intimidated by the other party's aura.
"Hey, you're not really scared by him, are you?" the white-clad man nearby said, unable to bear it any longer.
But Cheng the eldest was enraged by his words: "Fifth brother, shut up!"
As he spoke, he turned to his other bandits and said, "Brothers, take the food, let's go!"
At this point, he was no longer fixated on killing Lin Qixia.
They even forgot to send someone to rob the Lin family of their money and grain, only wanting to escape as quickly as possible.
Many bandits were surprised by this, but dared not disobey his orders.
Seeing this, the man in white shrugged and simply turned away, ignoring him.
Everyone acted quickly, carrying the grain away.
Before leaving, Boss Cheng threatened Lin Qixia, "I'll let you go today, but you wait, I'll get you sooner or later!"
"Oh," Lin Qixia replied calmly.
She stood there and watched the group leave the village.
Once the bandits disappeared into the night, the villagers of Xiahe Village finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"They're finally gone!"
"I've long heard that these bandits are ruthless and merciless killers. We're lucky to be alive this time," Chen Weizhong sighed.
Li Pei frowned, his tone angry: "What's the use of surviving? They've stolen all our winter food."
Xue Yuchan echoed him, "Young Master Li is right. Without food, we will still starve to death in winter."
As she spoke, she looked at Lin Qixia with a reproachful expression.
Lin Qixia simply ignored her at that moment.
They were unaware of her plans. In order to conduct business peacefully in the future, she had to deal with those bandits and find a way to retrieve the grain.
We won't let those guys off easily.
Lin Qixia turned around and walked straight towards Gu Ciyu, asking her, "How is he?"
At the same time, she looked down at Xue Cheng, who was lying on the ground, pale-faced, covered in blood, and unconscious.
"What else can I do? I managed to stop the bleeding, but that's not enough at all!" Gu Ciyu replied irritably.
Their conversation drew the attention of everyone in the village.
People also started paying attention to Xue Cheng's situation.
Xue Cheng was the biggest victim in this bandit raid.
Not only was his family's food stolen, just like everyone else's, but he also suffered such serious injuries.
Many elderly people in the village sighed when they saw him like this, saying, "He's in such a state, he's definitely not going to make it."
"If even Miss Gu can't do anything about it, then it's completely hopeless, truly—"
As they spoke, everyone looked at Lin Qixia.
Xue Yuchan knelt beside Xue Cheng, wailing, "Waaah, Father! My father really can't be saved—"
She looked at Lin Qixia and said, "It's all Lin Qixia's fault! It's all your fault, Lin Qixia!"
Lin Qixia: "..."
Seeing that Xue Yuchan's sincerity was mixed with a lot of hypocrisy and exaggeration, as if she was deliberately leading everyone, Lin Qixia was speechless.
At a time like this, why waste time on this?
Did she really not realize how serious her own father's injury was?
Lin Qixia rolled her eyes at her, "If you want to cry, go back and cry. Don't delay my rescue."
As she spoke, she squatted down and reached out to remove the hemostatic cloth that Gu Ciyu had covered Xue Cheng with.
"What are you doing?" Xue Yuchan rushed forward to try and stop her. "You think you can save people?"
She didn't trust Lin Qixia at all.
But the next second, Gu Ciyu suddenly reached out and grabbed Xue Yuchan's arm.
"Sister Gu?" Xue Yuchan looked at her with a puzzled expression, not understanding why she was stopping her at this time.
Gu Ciyu: "Save people first."
She knew what Xue Yuchan was thinking, but now was not the time.
Gu Ciyu gestured for Xue Yuchan to step aside, then looked at Lin Qixia and asked, "What's your idea?"
She only held a sliver of hope for Lin Qixia because she had already exhausted all other options.
After all, Lin Qixia had healed her older brother's leg.
Without looking up, Lin Qixia said to her, "Judging from the condition of his abdominal wound, he needs stitches."
"Stitching?" Gu Ciyu suddenly became uncertain after hearing her say that.
I thought she had some better way to save people, but all she did was stitch up.
Isn't this ridiculous? I've never seen such an outrageous way of saving people.
Xue Yuchan also seized the opportunity to persuade Gu Ciyu, "Sister Gu, don't let her do anything reckless! How can she sew stitches on someone? She's trying to kill my father!"
"Please, Sister Gu, save my father!" she pleaded, grabbing Gu Ciyu's arm.
Ultimately, she didn't want her father to die.
"I—" Gu Ciyu opened her mouth, but could not respond at this moment.
I can't just tell her that I have no way to deal with it.
Xue Cheng's condition was so bad that she didn't even understand why Lin Qixia had asked her to come and save him in the first place.
Could Lin Qixia really use such an outrageous method to save someone's life?
No! That's impossible!
In the end, Gu Ciyu still didn't believe Lin Qixia's so-called "stitching" method.
"Big brother, go home and get my first-aid kit." Ignoring their objections, Lin Qixia quickly checked Xue Cheng's wound and stopped the bleeding before speaking to Lin Xiao.
She had already decided to do it.
Seeing this, Lin Xiao responded without hesitation, "Okay."
He then left quickly, showing his full support for Lin Qixia's actions.
He moved quickly and returned with his medicine kit in no time.
