"Ouch~"
"Boss, there's a person lying in the middle of the road ahead."
"Alive or dead?" Pei Jiao was still chatting with Xu Ning when the subordinate who was walking in front of the team came back on horseback to report.
"He's an old man, still alive, and he doesn't look well."
"A scammer?" This was something he had encountered on the road before. Xu Ning's first reaction was that someone was scamming him again.
"Miss E'ning, it doesn't look like he's committing fraud. He must have really fainted." Because the man didn't look like he had eaten something, but rather seemed to be unconscious.
As for the "scam", Xu Ning had specifically explained it on the way up, and they knew what it meant.
"Come on, Sister Pei, let's go and take a look!" Xu Ning became curious when he heard this. He took Xu Feng and Pei Jiao to the old man they met and found out why the person who came to report just now said that this was not a scam.
This is a rich old man. Look at the brocade he is wearing and the warm jade on his waist. In comparison, this group of people looks more like scammers.
"Pei Jiao, this is our wallet, should we save it?" If we save it, maybe the losses caused by the rats can be made up.
"Help!" There was room in the carriage anyway, and he, an old man, couldn't cause any trouble.
"Xiaochen and Liu Li, lift the old man onto the carriage, give him some water, and see if you can wake him up." Pei Jiao called Pei Chen and Liu Li over, and at the same time saw Xiao Tianquan watching not far away.
When Pei Jiao and Xu Ning were about to return to the carriage, they passed by him. Xiao Tianquan suddenly said, "Taoism and medicine are one and the same. I have some knowledge of medicine. If you need my help, please let me know."
"Oh, then you can go and take a look. It's a good opportunity to see how the Taoist priest's medical research is going." Pei Jiao did not stop at all because of Xiao Tianquan's words, and she was not polite at all when giving orders to Xiao Tianquan.
She was a very kind person, okay? He was the one who wanted to see a doctor, wasn't he? So she let him go.
Xu Ning and Xu Feng held back their laughter, knowing that Pei Jiao was unhappy with Xiao Tianquan, so they walked quickly without saying a word.
Xiao Tianquan's mouth twitched a few times. He knew that he was in the wrong. After all, it was he who deliberately set up the maze in the town to stop them.
Moreover, he even brazenly claimed that there was something evil among Pei Jiao and the others...
Okay, just bear with it. After all, it won’t hurt you if you get scolded a few times.
Xiao Tianquan quickly boarded the carriage. After carefully examining the unconscious old man, he told Pei Chen, "This old man is frightened and overworked. He will wake up in about two hours."
After Pei Chen lifted the old man onto the carriage and gave him two sips of water, he looked at Xiao Tianquan moving around on the old man's face and body with an indifferent expression.
"Oh, I see." Pei Jiao was unhappy with Xiao Tianquan, so Pei Chen naturally was unhappy with him too.
Xiao Tianquan was choked again and was speechless, but he didn't say anything. He told Pei Chen about the old man's condition, and then he continued to lean against the wall of the carriage to rest.
"Frightened and tired?" After hearing Pei Chen's words, Xu Ning and Pei Jiao fell into deep thought. "Sister Pei, this old man looks so rich, so he should have a lot of servants around him. Now he's all alone and fainted on the side of the road. Could he have been robbed by bandits? No, that's not right. Look, his belongings are still intact."
"It's hard to say the specific situation. Didn't the Taoist priest say he would wake up in two hours? We can ask him when he wakes up."
"That's all we can do."
