Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xu Qing’s nerves tightened. She was worried that there was someone here. In the next second, she heard a wolf howl. She warily took out the knockout powder in her hand.
A snow-white wolf cub jumped out. Its green eyes were fixed on Xu Qing as it let out a warning howl.
Xu Qing took two steps back, and the little wolf’s gaze was no longer so fierce. As for the little wolf, it had a bright flower hanging in front of the tomb.
Xu Qing’s eyes flickered as she pointed at the pile of wolf bones. “Is this your mother?”
The little wolf whimpered, and the look in its eyes became gentle.
“No wonder! You and Mother are really intelligent and value relationships so much!” Xu Qing was touched. She stood up after a while and said, “Goodbye, I have to go back. My children are still waiting for me!”
The little wolf howled, as if it was reluctant to leave, because it had not seen anyone in a long time and was really a little lonely.
Xu Qing thought about coming again when she was free. Of course, she was not afraid that anyone would discover this place. After all, the people in the village were saying that there was something creepy about this mountain. They only dared to pick wild vegetables around the peripheries because of that array formation.
Xu Qing didn’t dare to delay. The sky was almost dark and she was worried about her children. She walked faster and faster and her breathing became louder. Her body was too weak. It seemed like she could really give Ying Zhiyao’s lightweight technique a try. However, why was her breathing so heavy? It didn’t sound like her!
Xu Qing’s body instantly trembled. She suddenly turned around and saw an incomparably handsome face. The man’s eyes were closed, and his tall nose was covered in sweat. His lips had already turned pale from excessive blood loss. He leaned against a tree and frowned. He held his bleeding wounds with both hands and panted heavily.
This person’s identity was clearly distinguished. Xu Qing was a little conflicted. Should she save him?
“Sigh!” Xu Qing took down the medicine basket and went forward to stop the bleeding. After all, she was a physician, so she could not leave him in the lurch. However, just as Xu Qing was about to take the medicine, a sticky and cold palm suddenly grabbed Xu Qing’s ankle. His strength was extraordinary. Xu Qing was in so much pain that tears came out. She felt like her bones were about to shatter.
At this moment, she was extremely regretful. From this person’s strength, why would he need her to save him? With this in mind, she struggled to break free from that hand. However, that person suddenly let go, and in the blink of an eye, that handsome man was kicked down the hill by Xu Qing…
Bang! The man landed.
“Ouch!” The man groaned in pain.
The moment before Qiao Yanhui fainted, he gritted his teeth and cursed this damn woman. “If you don’t want to save me, then don’t save me. Why did you kick me?” Furthermore, this woman must have a grudge with him. He had suffered three times in this village, but in the end, it was always related to this woman!
Xu Qing was speechless.
She really didn’t do it on purpose just now. He suddenly reached out and let go. This was her instinctive reaction! She looked at the motionless man and was puzzled. Could he really be dead?
Xu Qing thought about it and hurriedly ran over to take a look. Uh… the handsome man’s face was covered in scratches, and his forehead had slammed into a rock, causing blood to flow!
At that moment, Xu Qing only had one thought. This person was probably crippled! She had to save him. She didn’t want to be accused of manslaughter. Xu Qing went forward and took his pulse. She instantly widened her eyes. His pulse was gradually disappearing?
In the end, Xu Qing couldn’t care less and hurriedly gave him CPR. He probably stopped breathing! When the man finally had a heartbeat again, Xu Qing started to treat him. Fortunately, she always had silver needles with her. Otherwise, he would be dead.
After busying herself for a while, Xu Qing was so tired that she sat on the ground. She looked at the wound on his forehead and finally dragged the disfigured man home. When she left, Xu Qing was a little glad that he had rolled so far away. Otherwise, she really wouldn’t have been able to move him…
If Qiao Yanhui was still conscious and heard this, he definitely would have been angered to death!
When Xu Qing dragged a man covered in blood home, the Wu family’s mother and daughter were shocked and asked nervously, “Who is this? Why is he covered in blood? Will we get into trouble…”
Xu Qing didn’t answer, because she was really tired. She threw the man to the ground and didn’t care if he would continue to bleed or not. She had really done her best. She explained calmly, “I picked him up on the mountain.”
“What?” Wu Xiao’an was shocked.
Auntie Wu also had a worried expression. “You’re a woman with three children. If you pick up a man, this will be…”
