Chapter 170 - The Frivolous Merchant

"Dig behind!" Nan Luo yelled.

Hou Liang nodded and then began to dig upon the carriage behind the man. Even though he was skeptical, he believed that these brats gave this instruction with reason.

As for why he didn't ask Old Master Nan...

That was because Old Master Nan was already busy to dig out the others and treated the wounded ones at the side. He was also busy commanding the soldiers to bring the survivors to the plains nearby where they would be able to rest.

Tak! Tak!

The shovel hit on the wooden panel and Hou Liang pushed it open. Inside the partially broken carriage was a man that was also partially crushed under the roof and the dirt. Hou Liang worked even faster to dig the earth out and then pull the man out.

"Master!" the man who was still partially buried called out.

"He's unconscious." Hou Liang checked the pulse. He could sense that the man was barely breathing. "I'll bring him down first before helping you out."

"Please."

Swish!

This time, Hou Liang used his martial arts to jump down. He kicked several rocks and caused some of them to fall but he didn't care about it right now. He headed straight to the children. "Call doctors."

"I'll go!" Nan Luo released his grip over the rope and dashed over. There were several doctors who came with them because of Old Master Nan's pretense of being sick. Most of them were the trustworthy people around Old Master Nan, so Nan Luo quickly pulled one of them over.

The poor doctor who was about to treat someone else could only stay silent as he was dragged over.

"What is it?"

"Examine him, please."

There was even high possibility of him killing himself to follow his master in the afterlife.

'I forget about this basic relationship.'

Hou Liang rubbed his nose. If he was in the same position with Old Master Nan inside the carriage, he would ask the same thing. If Old Master Nan died, he would not kill himself but he would surely blame himself for life.

Even though the second man lost one of his legs, he would be able to live on.

"Father!"

Nan Hua turned her head to the side and saw a young man rushed over. The man was around 17 to 18 years old and looked handsome. Wearing lavish white robe, he looked rather frivolous. If not because of his current panicked expression, he would surely be an eye candy for many people.

There was a small white fox rested on his shoulder. He was rushing over in their direction and the first man looked considerably startled.

He called out, "Young Master."

"Lin Sun, how's my father?" the young master asked.

"He..." the man, Lin Sun, looked aggrieved as he looked at the second man, who was lying on the ground. "He'll live but he lost a leg."

The young master stiffened as he slumped near the ground. He looked at his father, who was lying on the ground and smiled bitterly, "At least, you're both alive."

Nan Hua was watching from the side as her eyes landed on the white fox. White fox would become the nobles' pet, but they all actually came from merchant who came from the north. In the past, she did meet with a white fox but it was different from the white fox on the man's shoulder.

If she calculated the time correctly.

The man in front of her should be Lin Yuan, the frivolous merchant who worked together with Long Qian Xing.

And she... had changed the future.
