C9 Chapter Ix Saving

The man's body stiffened, and all the muscles in his body tensed up. It was obvious that making him into a cripple was even more difficult for him to accept than taking his life. Rong Xiu's words just so happened to hit his seven inches.

Rong Xiu folded a few pieces of 3 to 7 pieces from the side, then used the stone to break them and put them on the man's wounds.

This time, her actions were a bit too harsh. Although she had said that it was the heart of a doctor, this man's actions just now had caused Rong Xiu to be in a bad mood. Naturally, she didn't want to act so frivolously towards a man.

"A mile and a half to the east here, there is a cave. Take me there." The man frowned. He seemed to be deep in thought.

Rong Xiu rolled her eyes in her heart, this man really knew how to order people around. She quickly cleaned up the man's wounds, stood up and clapped, "Then please let the chivalrous hero go by himself. I still have other important matters to attend to."

The man's pupils contracted rapidly as a cruel smile appeared on his face. He gripped his sword and asked, "Is there a village at the foot of the mountain?"

"What are you going to do?" A premonition rose up in Rong Xiu's heart.

"If I continue to stay in this place, tomorrow, not a single person from your village will remain. Not even chickens and dogs will remain." The man's expression was extremely serious. It didn't seem like he was lying.

This man wore a mask, and he was extremely skilled. The muscles on his body were uniform, and they revealed an extremely beautiful streamlined appearance. In this era, a man with such a figure was most likely not a simple person.

His wound was so deep that his bones could be seen. In other words, the person who injured him was determined to take his life. If he was truly left here, it would bring a huge disaster to the village.

After weighing the pros and cons again, Rong Xiu reached out her hand, "Forget it, I'll send you over now."

She lowered her head slightly, pretending that she didn't see the killing intent in the man's eyes.

If it was in the past, with Rong's way of embroidering on the battlefield, she would definitely grab hold of this man and thoroughly investigate the things behind him. However, in this era, whether it was the body or the resources behind her, it was not enough for her to do so.

Even now, with this man heavily injured, it would be impossible for her to subdue him.

Fortunately, a mile and a half was not too far, and Rong Xiu quickly found the cave mentioned by the man. This place was located in the valley, hidden in the dark green shade of the trees. It was indeed a place to hide.

Step by step, she helped the man into the cave. Inside the cave, there was a stone table and a few stone stools. Moreover, there was some clear water to eat.

How could this man know so much about the topography of this place? Rong Xiu furrowed her brows, she placed the man onto the animal skin and said, "Alright, I've done what I needed to do for you, I have to go now."

She sniffed the fragrant grass in the basket behind her back and couldn't help but let out a smile. In the future, she would have plenty of time to chew at home.

"Wait." The man stopped Rong Xiu from drinking. "You should know what will happen if you reveal my whereabouts."

Rong Xiu's eyes were filled with affection, "I know, I won't say it anymore. Although this place is hidden, if we search everywhere, I'm afraid that you won't be able to escape.

She placed a handful of herbs beside the man, "For someone like you, you should recognize these herbs and protect yourself well."

With that, Rong Xiu walked out of the cave, when she heard the man behind her say, "What do you mean by search by carpet style?"

Rong Xiu stared blankly for a moment, but didn't pay much attention to it. After she said the modern vocabulary, she suddenly felt a bit embarrassed, but she still forced herself to say: "I just won't let a single blade of grass go to find you."

Before the man could react, Rong Xiu had already rushed home. At this moment, Su Cheng Xi should have returned from the market. If he couldn't find her, how anxious would he be?

When she thought of this, Rong Xiu's heart warmed. She and Su Cheng Xi could be considered to be relying on each other for life, right?

The original owner's physique was really not good enough, but running down the mountain road was not considered bumpy yet, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on Rong Xiu's temples. Looking at the small "tent" in the distance falling by the river, she secretly thought in her heart, once I save up some money, I will build a better grass hut.

He had not expected that Su Chengxi would not be around when he returned home. However, the grass ring on the door had clearly been moved by someone.

Everyone in the village knew that they wouldn't come to steal anything, not to mention that even if they did steal something, who would tie a grass ring around their neck and go back to their village?

Just as she was thinking, Seventh Aunt's voice came over from the village entrance, "Rong Xiu'er, where did you go? Your husband is going crazy trying to find you. "

In the original owner's memory, Seventh Aunt was a very good person, but her life was a bit bitter, and her husband died early on. She painstakingly brought up her son, so her days were better.

"Seventh Aunt, I'm going up the mountain to gather herbs …" Rong Xiu scratched her head, she was a little embarrassed and asked: "Where did my husband go to find me?"

"I don't know, maybe …" "Where's Grandma Wang …" Seventh Aunt soothingly said, "It's fine. He won't be able to find you by the side, so he'll naturally come back to check on you."

As the two of them were talking, they saw that Su Cheng Xi had returned. As soon as he came back, his face was filled with joy. Seeing that there was no anger on his face, Rong Xiu calmed down.

Unexpectedly, Su Cheng Xi's face sank again. He slowly walked over and directly hugged Rong Xiu in his arms, as if he was protecting his most precious treasure.

When Rong Xiu smelled the aroma of the pine and cypress on his body, she felt that there was indeed a bandit on her. It was as if they were sparring, as if they were grinding each other …

While she was flying out of the sky, Su Cheng Xi's voice had a strange low tone: "You're not allowed to say anything in the future, so just run away."

"After that … Husband, can you teach me how to write? I want to leave you a note... "But …" Rong Xiu raised her clear eyes.

That gaze that was like a little deer in the forest suddenly hit Su Cheng Xi's heart. He couldn't say anything out of anger, so he could only hold Rong Rong and weave even tighter.

Seventh Aunt giggled. "You two are too ashamed to stay here any longer. Forget it, I'll go back first."

Her eyes then looked into the room and said: "Cheng Xi, you said you were in the chicken coop … We found a few silver ingots, is that true? "

Su Cheng Xi gently let go of Rong Xiu with a warm smile on his face: "Of course it's true. I'll renovate this house in a few days."

What silver ingot? Why didn't he know? Rong Xiu thought for a moment and came to a realization. This was a fake news that Su Chengxi had intentionally leaked out in order to catch the thief. She immediately pursed her lips and smiled without saying a word.

After Seventh Aunt left, Rong Xiu reached out her hand and lightly rubbed it against Su Cheng Xi's cheek: "Husband, don't reveal your wealth. Seventh Aunt may be a good person, but if we spread the false news that we have silver ingots, I'm afraid it will bring disaster upon us."

"Xiu'er is thinking very deeply." Su Cheng Xi sat down on the side. He sized up Rong Xiu with a burning gaze. Finally, his gaze fell on Rong Xiu's basket: "What's over there?"

Only then did Rong Xiu regain her wits, she put down the basket and said, "Master, I've thought about it, in the mountain forest over there, there are many herbs, I've only harvested some of them. When the time comes, I'll make a few and sell them to the medicine stores in the city, and I'll be able to earn a lot of money."

"You went to pick herbs?" Looking at Rong Xiu who was in high spirits, he actually couldn't tell what he was feeling at the moment. After a long time, he suddenly stood up and pulled Rong Xiu into his arms. This time around, Rong Xiu was confused for a moment.

Speaking of which, she had only known this Su Cheng Xi for a few days. It was as if she had some sort of reason, as if she was destined to be like him in the past.

"Hubby!" I also picked some shepherd's purse. Shall we have some shepherd's purse soup tonight? " Rong Jiushi stuck her head out of Su Chengxi's chest with great difficulty. After a while, her hair, which had been tied up so easily, began to loosen a bit.

Su Cheng Xi looked at the little person in his arms, who was holding onto her natural spirit. He smiled and said: "Of course it's good. Wild Capsella is the most natural flavor."

However, in Su Cheng Xi's eyes, he didn't look like he wanted to eat the shepherd's purse, but rather, he looked like he wanted to eat himself …

Rong Xiu quickly extended her soft hands and pushed Su Cheng Xi's chest: "Alright, alright, I'm going to take care of something. If my husband is free, then please help me gather some firewood."

She quickly turned her head to leave so that no one would see her pretty face.

On the other side, Su Chengxi was sniffing the fragrance coming from his fingertips. There seemed to be a faint trace of sweetness coming from his head, as if … The smell of blood.

As expected, the newly harvested shepherds' food was very fresh. The couple drank quite a bit, and even their stomachs slightly bulged. It was already deep in the night outside, so the two of them laid down in the tent, clothes tied together.

Rong Xiu couldn't help but feel a bit nervous. She was about to speak when she heard Su Cheng Xi say, "Xiu'er, be quiet. Someone's coming."

Sure enough, there were rustling sounds coming from outside. Rong Xiu thought that Su Cheng Xi's hearing was actually so extraordinary … The person outside said in a low voice, "Mother, since Big Brother took the money, he won't keep it in the chicken coop anymore, right?"

"What do you know!" This rough and spicy voice sounded like it belonged to Grandma Wang. She realized that her voice had become louder, so she quickly lowered her voice and said, "That shitty house of theirs is only the size of a palm. What can they hide? Most likely, they would bury the silver ingots in the chicken coop. The scholars would spend a lot of effort to obtain them, but this was the exact opposite … Reverse what... "Did you do it?"

"To the contrary …" The sister-in-law, Guifen, whispered.
