Chapter 466 Parents' Side Story 1: Not Recognizing a Kind Heart
Reading Settings
Xinglan.
A secluded, unknown deep forest, where birds sing, flowers bloom, and streams murmur.
A young woman carrying a basket on her back walked briskly along the lush path, humming a nonsensical tune with a smile on her face.
"My senior sisters don't dare to come down the mountain here, but there are clearly many rare medicinal herbs here. If they don't come, I really can't pick them all by myself!"
As the woman bent down to pick a strangely shaped plant, she couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement.
Xinglan is a very mysterious place. Even the disciples of their sect have not been able to fully explore it. For example, they dare not come to the valley that is far away from the sect.
Only when one is determined to explore more will one dare to come here.
"Hmm~"
What was that sound?
As she walked, the woman suddenly heard a low groan. Startled, she turned her head and looked around.
After going around once and finding nothing, she shook her head.
Perhaps I misheard!
So she continued walking forward, but the next second she heard another muffled groan, this time louder, and she felt something splash onto her trouser leg like water.
Only then did the woman slowly lower her head to look.
"ah!"
The woman screamed and quickly lifted her leg, taking a few steps back.
There... there's actually a person here!
The man's clothes were similar in color to the grass on the ground, and his face was also covered by the grass, which is why I didn't see him and just stepped on his stomach.
"Who are you?"
The woman asked instinctively.
"puff!"
The man stared at the woman with bloodshot eyes, his lips twitching as if he wanted to say something, but before he could speak, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
"You...you're injured? Did I step on you and cause this?"
The woman looked flustered and quickly squatted down to help the man up and check his injuries.
Unexpectedly, when the man heard the woman say that she thought his injuries were caused by his foot being stepped on, he frowned deeply and then abruptly shook off her hand.
He shouted with all his might, "Get out! Stay away from me!"
She must be a spy; they sent her to harm me!
Why pretend to be so naive? Do you think you're stupid enough to fall for it?
"You're injured, you're even coughing up blood. I'm a doctor, I know how to treat illnesses, let me take a look at you!"
When the woman saw that the man was not only vomiting blood, but also clearly injured from his voice and condition, she initially thought that she had stepped on him and caused the bleeding, and felt very guilty.
However, from the moment the man started cursing at her, she sensed that he had other injuries.
Even though he didn't cause it, she still stepped on him and made him bleed, so he has to take responsibility.
"Get lost! I don't need your attention. Get away from me, or I'll kill you!"
The man deliberately made a fierce expression and refused again.
"Kill me?"
How can you kill me like this?
The woman couldn't help but laugh when she saw the man trying to act fierce.
But she held back and looked the man up and down. She then discovered that in addition to his internal injuries, he also had some external injuries. His neck was covered with cuts, and some parts were even inflamed.
If this isn't treated soon, it's likely that the wound will become infected and the person will die.
"Hmph, do you think you can kill me with your current weak appearance? I think you'd better behave yourself and listen to me, or I might resort to violence."
Since the woman saw that he didn't believe her, she could only intimidate him in this way before treating his injuries.
"Don't come any closer!"
The man's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked as if he would kill her if she dared to take another step closer.
The woman narrowed her eyes and sighed inwardly: What should I do? This man is far too wary!
She stood there, thought for a moment, and then quickly pulled a bottle from her sleeve, covered her mouth and nose, and then sprinkled a cloud of powder at the man.
"you---"
The man stared in astonishment, his eyes widening, and before he could finish speaking, he rolled his eyes and fainted.
"Who told you to disobey me? I'm sorry, I can only knock you unconscious first, and then treat your injuries."
The woman murmured something.
Then she went over to take the man's pulse and examine his wounds.
"You're really lucky to have met me. If it weren't for me, you probably would have already passed away."
After taking the man's pulse, the woman discovered that he had been poisoned with a deadly toxin that no doctor outside knew how to cure. She had heard her master say that this poison had once killed an entire village.
They were curious, so they sought out this poison to study and challenge themselves, and it took them seven days to develop an antidote.
The woman first helped the man to a clean cave, then prepared an antidote for him to take, and later used herbs to treat the cuts and bruises on his body.
By the time she finished everything, it was almost dark. Looking at the increasingly dark sky, the woman could only sigh, "It seems I can't go back today, otherwise I really would have gotten lost in these mountains!"
Let my master scold me tomorrow!
It can only be said that he got lost in the mountains.
The next day.
As dawn broke, a ray of sunlight shone in from outside the cave, falling directly on the man's face.
The man felt the light and slowly opened his eyes.
When he saw that he was in an unfamiliar cave, his eyes widened suddenly, and he sat up abruptly.
Huh?
Why does he seem to have more energy than yesterday?
