C3 I Met a Beautiful Lady's Secretary on the Way

The outer mountain of Jiuloong Village was called Nine Dragon Mountain. The so-called Nine Dragon Mountain was nothing more than nine mountains!

The terrain of these nine mountains was complicated, and it was very inconvenient to travel.

On a mountain path that led to Jiuloong Village, a beautiful woman sat on a rock beside the mountain path. Her forehead was covered in cold sweat. Her jade-like hands were rubbing her swollen ankle like a carrot.

The woman's name was Lee Xiaozi, and she was sent by the upper government to Jiuloong Village as a village secretary. She had just arrived here and was in high spirits. She wanted to help the village chief of Jiuloong Village lead the villagers to make a fortune.

She did not expect the village chief of Jiuloong Village to lose contact with her. During the year she was transferred, she was the one responsible for all the big and small matters in Jiuloong Village!

Originally, she had been handling matters in the town when she received a message from the villagers, saying that Lee Ergou the Tyrant had found trouble with the Chen family again. In order to rush back to the village as soon as possible, she chose to walk this rugged mountain road. In the end, she sprained her ankle.

"Damn it! There is no signal at all in the mountain!"

Lee Xiaozi hit her phone and felt very disappointed. She tried to stand up, but the pain forced her to sit back on the rock.

It was almost dark. If she did not return to Jiuloong Village, she would be in danger!

Lee Xiaozi thought of the villagers who said they found the footprints of wild wolves on the mountain a while ago. Goosebumps instantly appeared on her skin.

"May I ask if anyone is here? I have sprained my ankle. Can you help me?"

Lee Xiaozi tried to get up several times but failed. She placed all her hopes on calling for help. But who would appear on the mountain road in the middle of the night?

She now regretted walking on this mountain road. Now she was trapped in the mountain with difficulty. When the villagers discovered that she was missing and found her, she would probably have long become a pile of bones.

Lee Xiaozi's eyes were filled with tears and the wind blew past her ears, scaring her so much that she trembled.

At this time, she heard a strange sound. It was in the darkness not far away.

She swallowed her saliva and stared nervously at the darkness in the distance.

A black shadow suddenly jumped out, scaring Lee Xiaozi so much that she shivered. She hurriedly turned on her phone's flashlight and found that the figure that suddenly jumped out was a man. Only then did her worried heart calm down.

With the help of the flashlight, Lee Xiaozi looked at the man who suddenly jumped out. His ordinary clothes were stained with mud and there was a big gunny sack on his back.

Behind his fluffy long hair was also his face stained with dirt and dust. He looked quite handsome at first glance.

The person who suddenly jumped out was Chen Tao, who was picking herbs in the mountain. He looked at Lee Xiaozi, who was sitting on a rock, and asked curiously, "It's late at night. Why are you sitting here alone?"

"I have sprained my ankle. Can you help me?" Lee Xiaozi said with a sobbing voice.

"How many needles will I give you?"

Chen Tao took out the sky-less needles from his hands behind his back and stabbed them into Lee Xiaozi's ankle.

"Wait," Lee Xiaozi said. Who would use acupuncture to wound her ankle?"

Lee Xiaozi quickly stopped Chen Tao. She knew a little about medicine. If the sprained ankle should be treated with medicine, how could there be acupuncture?

"Are you sure you don't need it?" Chen Tao asked.

"Yes."

Lee Xiaozi used a pleading tone and asked, "Can you send me back?"

Chen Tao did not even think about it. He picked Lee Xiaozi up and went down the mountain along the mountain path.

"Which village are you from?" Chen Tao asked.

"I'm from Jiuloong Village."

"Jiuloong Village?"

Chen Tao was stunned. Although he had not returned to the Jiuloong Village for a long time, he still had some memories of the villagers.

Since when did Jiuloong Village have such a beautiful woman?

Forget it. Even if she wasn't from Jiuloong Village, she should still be brought down the mountain. If a girl was left on the mountain path in the middle of the night, it would be very easy for something bad to happen.

After walking for about half an hour, the two of them finally returned to Jiuloong Village. Lee Xiaozi was surprised to find that Chen Tao carried her on the rugged mountain road for half an hour without even breathing.

Lee Xiaozi pointed at the brightly lit Village Committee building and asked, "I live in the Village Committee. Can you send me there?"

Chen Tao did not say anything. He carried Lee Xiaozi towards the Village Committee building.

"What are you doing in the mountains at night?" Lee Xiaozi asked carefully.

"Picking herbs!" Chen Tao said.

"It's too dangerous to go into the mountains to pick herbs in the middle of the night. Could something have happened at home?"

Lee Xiaozi asked again, "I am the secretary of Jiuloong Village. If there is anything I can help you with..."

"Xiaozi, you are finally back. You scared me to death!"

Before Chen Tao could reply, a middle-aged woman shouted and rushed out of the Village Committee building.

She was Aunt Ji, the wife of the old village chief. Because she pitied Lee Xiaozi for carrying the heavy responsibility of Jiuloong Village at such a young age, she would come to the Village Committee to help Lee Xiaozi organize the documents when she had free time.

"I'm fine. I sprained my ankle on the mountain road and was sent back by a kind person!"

Lee Xiaozi's heart was warm. Although she was not from Jiuloong Village, Aunt Ji treated her like her own daughter.

"Good person? Isn't this Chen Tao from an honest family?"

Aunt Ji looked at Chen Tao who had placed Lee Xiaozi on the ground and sighed. "You hit Lee Ergou as soon as you came back. How are you going to live in the future?"

"What? He hit Lee Ergou?"

Lee Xiaozi was very surprised. Lee Ergou had relied on his brother to open a casino to get to know many influential people. He had done all kinds of things in Jiuloong Village every day. The villagers of Jiuloong Village were angry at him but did not dare to say anything. No one dared to attack Lee Ergou.

This Chen Tao dared to hit Lee Ergou. He was quite bold!

Lee Xiaozi admired Chen Tao very much. She raised her tone and said, "Don't worry. Although Lee Ergou is arrogant and despotic, I am the secretary of Jiuloong Village. If Lee Ergou causes trouble for your Chen Family in the future, you can tell me. I, Lee Xiaozi, will definitely do my best to help you."

"No need!"

Chen Tao had a cold expression on his face and kept people away from him.

"You..."

"I have something to do. Let's go."

Chen Tao patted the gunny sack in his hand, turned around, and disappeared into the night.

Chen Laoshi, who was waiting anxiously at the door of his house, saw that his son had returned. He felt relieved. When Chen Tao returned home, he immediately washed the precious herbs he picked and divided them into several portions according to the formula of the Xuantian Medical Codex.

In order to check the medicinal efficacy of the herbs on Earth, Chen Tao personally boiled water to make up for the soup.

These precious herbs from Nine Dragon Mountain were far too different compared to the precious herbs from cultivation realm. In addition, the evaporation of the water on Earth had taken away a large amount of the medicinal strength. There was not much left in the tonic soup.

"Looks like I have to find a piece of land to plant medicinal herbs in cultivation realm!" Chen Tao touched the medicinal Storage Ring on his right middle finger and muttered to himself.

Although his heaven defying cultivation was scattered by the Nine Lightning, the medicinal Storage Ring stored a large number of precious items in cultivation realm, including many rare medicinal herbs that were not found on Earth.

As long as one could find a precious land, one could plant these medicinal herbs from the cultivation realm. At that time, his mother's stomach cancer would completely recover!
