Chapter 29 Dalang, have some resurrection pills (2/2)

"Two yuan will suffice in total."

Lin Han paid the money and thought to herself, "Wow, that's really cheap!"

She put all the things she bought into her spatial storage. Having finished shopping, she prepared to return to the military region before it got completely dark.

"Ouch, that hurts so much!"

Hearing the noise, Lin Han turned around and saw a woman in her forties or fifties whose foot was stuck in the gap of the sewer.

Qingzhou is located by the sea, and during typhoon season, seawater can flood the streets. Therefore, drainage channels are left on both sides of the streets. To prevent things from falling in and clogging the drainage channels, wooden planks or iron fences spaced half a hand's width apart are specially laid on them.

At that time, the urban planning of Qingzhou was far less standardized than in the 21st century, and it was not uncommon for people to accidentally get their feet stuck in it while walking.

Ordinary people, including children, would be careful near the drainage ditch, but Qin Shuman was preoccupied and tripped and fell, getting her foot stuck.

Seeing this, Lin Han quickly went over to help.

"Auntie, don't move, let me help you pry the iron bar open."

Qin Shuman was surprised to hear a little girl's voice, and she pried...pried the iron rod open?

She looked up at Lin Han and felt a strange sense of familiarity, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.

"Girl, don't hurt your hand. If you can't manage, you should ask someone else for help."

Lin Han shook her head; this was a piece of cake for her.

"It's okay. If you're scared, just close your eyes. I'll be fine in a bit."

At this moment, thunder and lightning began to flash, and a torrential downpour started.

The two were instantly soaked.

"Oh dear, why is it suddenly raining?"

Qin Shuman was depressed. Today was the birthday of her son who had been missing for many years. She felt sad and wanted to cry when she woke up in the morning. She was restless and couldn't sit still in the yard, so she went out for a walk on the beach.

A day passed in the blink of an eye. Just as I was about to head back, I was preoccupied with something and didn't pay attention to my footing. I twisted my ankle and got stuck in the iron fence above the drainage ditch.

Now a sudden downpour has soaked her and the little girl who helped her. Is it that even the heavens are weeping for her lost child?

"Girl, if you really can't figure it out, just forget about it. You should find somewhere to take shelter from the rain. Don't worry about me."

Lin Han, her face covered in water, bent the iron pillar with a forceful pull and gently lifted the woman's foot out of the iron fence.

"Okay, Auntie, try moving your foot. I see your ankle is a little swollen."

Qin Shuman moved her ankle, feeling a piercing pain; she must have injured a bone.

"He can't move; he probably sprained his ankle."

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Lin Han squatted down in front of Qin Shuman and said, "Auntie, come on up. I'll carry you to the side to avoid the rain. This rain is really too heavy."

Qin Shuman reached out her hand to Lin Han, who carried her on her back and ran to the eaves of a nearby resident's house.

"Where do you live? I'll take you home once the rain stops."

Qin Shuman hugged Lin Han's neck, feeling a sense of security she had never felt before.

Strangely, even though she had never met this girl before, she felt as if she were bound by something and longed to get close to her.

"My home is in the family compound of the Qingzhou Military Region. There probably aren't any cars left this late. You can just take me to the guesthouse in the city."
