Chapter 57 Familiarity



The masked man in black was knocked unconscious by Song Wan's force and fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Song Wan controlled the golden whip and walked over carelessly, trying to lift the man's black veil.

"Don't hurt my master!" A black shadow attacked from another direction.

Gu Yan heard the sound, his eyes flashed, and he quickly drew his sword.

A gust of wind brushed past Song Wan's ears, and with a flash of silver light, the sword stabbed towards her.

There are accomplices here, Song Wan's eyes rolled, then don't blame her for being rude, she turned sideways, and the thief's accomplices also rushed over at the same time.

Song Wan wrapped the golden whip around the opponent's calf and directly pulled back the thief's accomplice who had just stabbed in the air with his sword.

Obviously, the opponent did not expect that the person fighting with him was so strong. Song Wan took advantage of the moment when he was stunned and punched him directly.

When Gu Yan hurried over, the man had already been hung upside down on the tree by Song Wan.

Song Wan blew on his fist, walked over, and said arrogantly, "Do you dare to sneak attack me again?"

"Let my master go! I'll agree to anything you ask!"

Song Wan: "Master? Aren't you a gang of thieves?"

The accomplice roared with a swollen eye, "We are not thieves!"

He and his master had no choice but to do so. When they have enough money, they will make up the money for the medicine!

Song Wan slapped him on the head, "Talk properly! Why are you yelling?"

Ever since she came here, she could no longer use her deadly neck-cutting skill. After all, the people here were not zombies, and it would be a bit insane to chop people at will.

The person hanging upside down was already feeling dizzy, and after being slapped like that, he couldn't even see clearly. He only felt two dark shadows swaying in front of him.

After Song Wan finished taking the photo, she realized that this person looked very familiar.

She then pulled off the veil on the face of the thief's accomplice. It was an ordinary face, but Song Wan felt like she had seen it somewhere.

So she asked Gu Yanji beside her, "Look at him, does he feel familiar?"

Gu Yan quickly put away his sword and followed her instructions, carefully observing the thief's face. When he glanced at his swollen left eye, a trace of helplessness flashed across his eyes.

"Are you familiar with it?" Song Wan asked again with her head tilted.

Gu Yan quickly averted her gaze and shook her head affirmatively, "I don't know him."

"Really?" Song Wan scratched his forehead, "But I feel like I've seen him somewhere."

She tried hard to search for the memory in her head, but she just couldn't remember it.

Gu Yan hurriedly grabbed her hand that was grabbing her forehead and said, "Why don't we go check on the person who fainted first?"

The man hiding in the tree had been unconscious for a long time. After fighting on the battlefield for a long time, Gu Yanji was very sensitive to the smell of blood, and the man on the ground had a strong smell of blood.

Preliminary judgment was that the person on the ground should be the patient they had previously guessed was seriously injured and needed medication.

Song Wan agreed. She had just used only 20% to 30% of her mental strength and fainted. How fragile she must be.

"Let me see what you look like!" Song Wan walked over, squatted down, and pulled off the other person's veil.

The unconscious man had a pale face, extremely thin cheeks, blood at the corners of his mouth, and his breath was very shallow, as if he would die at any time.

Song Wan's eyes widened, and she immediately grabbed Gu Yan anxiously, "Why do I feel that he looks more familiar than the one on the tree?"

When Gu Yanji saw this long-lost face, she felt a mixture of fear, relief, and other emotions.

He took a deep breath, held Song Wan's hand, and reminded her, "Ah Wan, he is your second brother."

Song Wan: “!!!”

Her eyes widened even more!

"Then didn't I almost kick my second brother to death just now?!" Song Wan finally remembered why the two of them seemed to be more familiar with each other than each other.

Not only was he seriously ill, but his face was also so thin that Song Wan really didn't think about it for a while.

The person she hung on the tree was Song Twelve, the twelfth-ranked secret guard of the Song family. He was the leader of ten people who followed Song Qin to transport grain and grass to the southwest.

Song Wan, who had finally come to his senses, quickly put the men down. Fortunately, he didn't chop them like zombies, otherwise it would have been really bad.

Song Twelve was suddenly put down. He was still dizzy and couldn't even stand steadily. He rushed towards Song Wan, trying to snatch her away, "Ahhh! You thief! Let my master go!"

Song Wan was preparing to transfer some mental power to Song Qin to treat his internal injuries, and really had no time to take care of him.

Gu Yan saw her cutting open Song Qin's robe and knew that she was going to start treating Song Qin's injuries, so she stood up to help her stop Song Twelve who rushed over recklessly.

"You accomplice of the thief, let me go!" Song Twelve's eyes were red.

Hearing the words "accomplices of the thief", Gu Yanji had a subtle feeling in his heart. He and Song Wan came to catch thieves, but inexplicably became thieves in the mouth of the "thief".

The injured Song Twelve was no match for Gu Yanji and was directly hit in the xue, unable to move.

Gu Yan was worried that any interruption would ruin Song Wan's treatment, so she pointed at the acupoints first and then explained slowly.

Song Twelve, who was unable to move, did not intend to give up. He shouted, "Help! There are two flower thieves here! They don't even let men go! Quick, help!"

Gu Yan anxiously "..."

Song Wan, who was channeling his mental energy to treat Song Qin, was speechless. This Song Twelve might be born to the same mother as Song Qi.

"Stop shouting, that's your eldest daughter." Gu Yan hurriedly tapped his mute point again, "If you keep shouting like that, the soldiers will really come."

Song Twelve opened his mouth and kept making sounds for a long time, but no sound came out. What young lady? Whose young lady would strip men's clothes?

He's finished! When the master wakes up and realizes his innocence is at risk, he'll surely be furious and his condition will worsen!

"You should also be a secret guard of the Marquis' Mansion." Gu Yan was anxious and didn't know how he could survive with Song Qin until now even though his brain didn't seem to be working very well.

When Song Shier heard the words "Marquis Mansion Secret Guard", he finally stopped struggling. He stared at Gu Yanji, as if asking, "Who are you? How do you know my identity?"

Gu Yanji smeared charcoal ash on her face, and her vision was poor at night, so there was no way Song Shier could recognize her.

"My last name is Gu." Gu Yanji introduced herself briefly, "I'm Gu Yanji, who is engaged to your eldest daughter."

Song Shiyi opened his mouth wide and almost dropped his jaw in shock.

So the young lady he just mentioned is the young lady of the Marquis' Mansion?!

Gu Yan was anxious to see that he understood what she said, so she raised her hand to untie the two bloodstains on his body.

"Awan is treating her second brother, your master. You will disturb her if you go over there." Gu Yan said anxiously.

After hearing this, Song Twelve immediately stopped his steps to apologize to the young lady. He looked at Gu Yanji and said with a single dark eye, "General Gu, it was Twelve who was rude just now!"

He had no choice but to mistake the two of them for crazy thieves who wanted to take advantage of his master.

"Nothing's wrong. It's just that Awan and I didn't recognize you two right away." Gu Yan continued anxiously, "I think it was you who stole the precious medicinal herbs in Yizhou City a few days ago, right?"

When Song Qin was discovered by Awan tonight, he didn't use any moves. Now thinking about it, he was too badly injured to fight back.

Speaking of this, Song Twelve felt guilty and uncomfortable, "It was me. The Second Young Master was seriously injured earlier, and I just reunited with him not long ago. I stole the herbs because I had no choice but to do it in a hurry."

I heard from the second young master that he escaped all the way from Yuzhou, and when he arrived in Yizhou, he could no longer suppress his illness. New and old injuries flared up at the same time, and he had a high fever that wouldn't go away. He couldn't even walk.

When passing through Suizhou, he and the second young master almost ran into King Yu's men head-on. In order to prevent their people from being in Yizhou City, Song Twelve did not dare to take Song Qinming to the clinic for treatment.

After traveling all the way here, Song Shier had used up all the silver he had. Apart from stealing, he could not think of any other way, and the second young master's injury could not be delayed any longer.

But after he stole the medicinal herbs for a few days, he was discovered by Song Qin who had woken up.

After taking the medicine for a few days, Song Qin was barely able to walk. After knowing that the herbs used to treat his injuries were stolen by Song Shier, he did not blame him, but just said that he could not take them for free.

That's why the two of them came here together tonight. They planned to leave an IOU and then leave Yizhou City before dark.

But no one expected that many soldiers were stationed near the clinic at some point. Song Shier didn't know whether the other party was really here to catch a thief, or whether King Yu had discovered the whereabouts of the second young master and wanted to take him back under the pretext of catching a thief.

In a hurry, he had to hide the second young master in a tree and planned to investigate on his own. If they were King Yu's men, he would lead them away.

After confirming that the other party was just ordinary soldiers and was really here to catch the thief who stole medicinal herbs, Song Shier did not dare to delay for a moment and hurried back, wanting to take Song Qin away.

Then came the scene at the beginning, where Song Qin was blown away, hit a thick tree trunk, and rolled to the ground.

Song Twelve, who witnessed this scene, thought that they were the people sent by King Yu, and felt so regretful in his heart!

How could he leave the second young master alone in the tree?

Just when Song Twelve was in despair, the other party suddenly told him that it was the eldest lady who caused the second young master to be seriously injured and vomit blood again.

Song Shier was completely stunned. When did the eldest lady become a soldier of the government, and why didn't he recognize her?

The mental force had a strong impact, causing the already seriously injured person to almost lose his life.

Song Wan used his mental power to protect Song Qin's meridians and heart meridians, allowing his body functions to continue working temporarily.

Her mental power was only the external cause of the injury; the internal injuries were what really caused Song Qin to be seriously injured.

Song Wanguang casually scanned with his mental power and sensed that several ribs were broken, healed, and then broken again.

There were traces of several silver needles penetrating his body, countless whip marks and branding on his back, half-grown nails, and wounds from blades embedded in his flesh.

Except for his face, there was no intact piece of skin or flesh left on his body.

"How is it?" Time was running out, so after Gu Yanji and Song Shier gave a brief explanation, he came over to inquire about the situation.

He was afraid that if Song Qin's injury became serious and irreparable, Song Wan would feel guilty and blame herself for the rest of her life.

"I helped my second brother protect his heart and meridians. I will slowly treat him after we return to the palace." Song Wan did not dare to input a large amount of mental power, fearing that Song Qin could not withstand it.

His body was too weak and needed to be replenished before it could withstand the large amount of mental energy on his physical strength.

When Song Shier heard her tell him the cause of Song Qin's illness, most of the worries in his heart were instantly relieved.

With the eldest lady and General Gu here, the second young master's injury will definitely heal.

Song Wan helped Song Qin up, raised his eyes to meet Gu Yan's anxious gaze, and suddenly said, "I want King Yu to die."
