Song Xiangsi looked around the little village. Although she saw all sorts of broken houses, this place was just like a place to earn money. She did not believe that she would not be able to find anything to exchange for medicine today.
Song Xiangsi walked to the riverside and found a wooden stick that she could use. She placed the tip of the wooden stick on the rock and sharpened it. Just as she was about to go down to the river to fish, she noticed something.
Out of the corner of his eyes he saw a few black shadows jump past them. Song Xiangsi reflexively hid behind a rock at the side. She narrowed her eyes to observe them and discovered a few brawny men. All of them were vicious and carried sabers in their hands. One look was enough to tell that they did not come with good intentions.
Song Xiangsi held her breath and thought that she had offended someone. However, when she thought about it, she realized that she had already transmigrated, so she was not afraid of anyone. She only wished for these people to leave quickly, so that she wouldn't waste her time to catch some fish and exchange them for silver.
"We've lost him, hurry up and chase him!" The man in black at the front bellowed, and the surrounding people immediately began to search.
That group of people spread out and began searching in all directions. Song Xiangsi hid there and turned around, only to see that there seemed to be traces of blood on the ground. The blood had not dried yet. She moved her body to see where the blood was coming from, but her wrist was held back by a slender hand.
She subconsciously flipped her hand and pressed it to the ground. In an instant, a man with messy hair and a face covered in blood appeared from the weeds beside the stone.
Based on the situation in front of him, Song Xiangsi was certain that the man in black was the one they were looking for.
"Who are you?" The man's voice was weak, but his tone was sharp.
"Your savior." Song Xiangsi glanced at the man and instantly felt that he was someone who could be saved.
Throwing away the tree branch in his hand, Song Xiangsi lightly clapped her hands and touched the man's body with a lot of blood. Under the man's astonished eyes, she jogged out.
As she ran, Song Xiangsi shouted, "Help! Help! "
The shout naturally attracted the black-clothed man's attention. The black-clothed man glanced at the blood on her hand and hastily asked: "Miss, did you meet anyone?"
"Just now, I saw a man covered in blood. I just asked him what's wrong, but he wanted to kill me. Luckily, I struggled for a while and he was also injured. That's why …" Song Xiangsi pretended to be frightened. She pointed in a direction even though she could not speak swiftly.
When the black-clothed man saw that she was acting like a village girl, he didn't expect her to lie. He gathered everyone and ran in the direction she pointed.
Withdrawing his gaze, Song Xiangsi laughed coldly. This group of ancient people were really easy to fool. He then walked to the back of the rock, bent down, and pulled the man up, "How do you plan to repay me?"
Weren't the ancient people the most loyal? The kind that repays kindness with a drop of water?
"What does the girl want?" He had originally thought that she would expose him, but he didn't expect that this little girl would actually save his life.
Song Xiangsi's gaze was locked onto the jade pendant at his waist, "I don't need anything else, I only want the jade pendant at your waist."
Upon hearing the name of the jade pendant, Meng Ling Xuan's eyes narrowed. He cautiously asked, "What do you want this jade pendant for?"
"Didn't you ask me what I wanted? I want your jade pendant. " If he could obtain that jade pendant, it would definitely be worth a lot of money. He could definitely save the Lin Clan.
"Absolutely not." The man immediately refused.
"When Song Xiangsi heard that, she got a little angry. This man is really cocky." I saved your life and you want to repay me? "If you exchange my jade pendant for money and save my mother, then we will repay each other with our lives. You will not owe me anything in the future."
"This is a hundred silver taels, is it enough for the lady to save someone?" Meng Ling Xuan propped himself up, fished out a silver note from his chest, and passed it to Song Xiangsi.
Song Xiangsi was stunned. She did not expect this man to be so rich. He received the banknotes unceremoniously and stuffed them into his pocket.
"Thank you!"
After Song Xiangsi finished speaking, she helped Meng Ling Xuanxuan up and found a valley to settle down in. The valley was so secretive that those in black who had no survival experience would not be able to find it. Since he had taken the man's money, he had to ensure his safety.
Seeing that Meng Ling Xuan was lying on the ground, Song Xiangsi found some dry grass to spread under his body, and then drew some water from the river and placed it beside him. Thinking that he should have fulfilled his promise, he rose to his feet, wanting to leave. However, Meng Liangxuan suddenly said, "Get some water and wash up."
Song Xiangsi was speechless. It was already good to be alive, what else was there to be concerned about? However, on account of the one hundred silver taels, Song Xiangsi ignored Meng Ling Xuan's angry gaze and pulled out two pieces of cloth from his tattered clothes. She got wet and wiped the blood off his face.
Just now, Meng Ling Xuan's face had been covered in blood, and his hair had been in a mess. It was impossible to see his appearance. Now that the blood on his face had been wiped clean, he was actually this handsome. His skin white and beautiful appearance was not exaggerated at all. He had a high nose bridge, red lips, white teeth, and was not any worse than the little meat on TV. He was even more manly than those little pieces of meat.
"Have you seen enough girls?" Many women praised Meng Huaxuan for his good looks, but this was the first time he was being stared at like this.
Song Xiangsi retracted her gaze, returning to her cold and detached face. "Stay here. I'll go get the medicine from the doctor. He saved my mother, so I'll come back to find you when I have time."
Finished speaking, he hurriedly left, not waiting for Meng Ling Xuan to speak.
Meng Ling Xuan looked at Song Xiangsi's back as she left in a hurry. He narrowed his eyes slightly, but the frown on his face slowly disappeared. A faint smile appeared on his lips.
Song Xiangsi took a hundred taels of silver and walked out of the valley. After finding the villagers on the ground and asking them where the pharmacy was, she rushed off without stopping.
Arriving at the medicine store, she slapped the silver notes on the table and anxiously said, "Doctor, my mother's head is injured, and her injuries are severe. Could I trouble you to bring some medicine to treat her wounds?"
At first the doctor saw that she was covered in blood, but then he became anxious and hurried to her side.
"Miss, no need to worry. This old man will …"
Halfway through his sentence, the doctor paused and stared at the silver notes on the table. After a while, he raised his head and looked at Song Xiangsi.
