Chapter 277: Living to Death
“Don’t worry, hero.”
The tea shop owner who had just woken up from a coma said in a trembling voice: “I, I will report it to the official. "
As he said that, he looked at the row of bandit men who were like big balls arranged in a row beside the tea shop. After just one glance, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to look anymore and withdrew his gaze.
"Well, just let the government handle it. Just tell them the truth. Most of these people are really bandits." Hua Wuying supported his still dizzy head and let out a breath. , putting a piece of silver into the hands of the tea shop owner: "They broke a lot of tables and chairs, are these enough?"
The boss was shocked and quickly shied away: "How, how dare you let the hero spend money?"
"You are innocent. You are doing a small business and you don't deserve this disaster." Hua Wuying's voice was very loud. It was very gentle, but firm and unquestionable: "Take it."
After that, he left without looking back, leaving only the tea shop owner holding the silver ingot, a little at a loss and confused. Somewhat touching.
Hua Wuying slowly came to the horse and looked at the unconscious Hua Xiaolan who was leaning against the wall, feeling quite helpless.
He had briefly checked her injuries just now.
Here's the weird thing... there are no wounds on her body!
Although he did not check the situation under Hua Xiaolan's clothes, judging from what was visible to the naked eye, the blood seemed to seep directly from the pores of the skin!
The neck, waist, arms, legs and feet... every exposed skin was bleeding.
After she became unconscious, the bleeding stopped little by little. Except for some blood stains on her skin, no injuries were visible at all.
But the blood loss was so much that even the gods could not withstand it.
At this time, Hua Xiaolan's breathing was extremely weak, almost as if she was dead. Her skin was so pale that no trace of blood could be seen, and even her pulse was so weak that it was almost impossible to detect.
Hua Wuying sighed helplessly: "We can only find a town first and let the doctor take a look."
He squatted down and said softly: "I'm offended."
< br>After saying that, he carefully stretched out his hands, reached to Hua Xiaolan's back and knees, gently lifted her up, then tiptoed, and lightly jumped onto the horse beside him.
Hua Xiaolan's petite body was placed sideways in front of him, so that when he held the reins with both hands, she could lean tightly on his arms and chest to avoid falling off due to the bumps on the horse's back. .
This was probably the first time he had such close contact with a woman, and Hua Wuying's face turned red quickly.
But after all, he was an extremely upright gentleman. He quickly suppressed all distracting thoughts in his mind, looked at his nose and his heart with his eyes, pinched the horse's belly with his legs, and rode away.
Hua Wuying left the Wulin Alliance this time to wander the world alone, with no purpose.
He simply wanted to understand something, and wanted to temporarily break away from the name of "Young Alliance Leader" that had accompanied him all his life, and just walk around as an ordinary practitioner.
So he didn’t know where he was going or what he was going to do. He just saw someone in need and tried his best to help.
Taking Hua Xiaolan with him at this time, the place he wanted to go was naturally the nearest town to find a doctor for him.
According to his memory, it would take more than half a day to get to the nearest small town... But there may not be anyone in the small town who can cure Hua Xiaolan, so I might have to go to the big city to see.
After thinking about it, Hua Wuying finally decided to go to a nearby town to at least get some qi and blood medicinal soup to help Hua Xiaolan recover a little first.
But as they walked, Hua Xiaolan slowly opened her eyes in her arms.
At this time, Hua Wuying was still looking straight ahead, not noticing that she had woken up.
Hua Xiaolan was startled at first, but then quickly understood the current situation, and couldn't help but let out a very light sneer: "Young leader, are you trying to rob a civilian girl?"
Hua Wuying was lying in his arms. The woman, who was already very nervous throughout the whole process, frightened him with her voice. She subconsciously pulled the reins to stop the horse, and shouted "Huu!"
His pull also frightened the horse. Jump, humming, then straighten your body, raise your front feet high, and stand up!
Hua Wuying’s martial arts cultivation means he can sit firmly on the back of a horse, but Hua Xiaolan cannot.
She was already weak, so how could she have imagined that her casual teasing would frighten both the man and the horse. As soon as the horse stood up, she heard an exclamation and lost her balance immediately. Even if he fell off the horse.
Only then did Hua Wuying react. He was shocked and stretched out his hand to stop the hug.
But... there is no bloody and vulgar plot like in idol dramas where the male and female protagonists hug each other and roll ten meters away.
Hua Wuying used extremely fast body movements to easily catch Hua Xiaolan before she fell to the ground. He put her down against the big tree by the roadside with great dignity and speed, and then swished to the ground. Three steps away, go and calm the frightened horse.
“Tsk.”
Hua Xiaolan’s shock faded and she said with a smile: “Young leader, how did this little girl scare you to this point? Are you really trying to rob people? Are you feeling guilty after being cheated on by me?”
"That's not the case, Junior Sister Hua." Hua Wuying pulled the reins, comforted the horse, and said with his back to her: "I saw that you lost too much blood and were seriously injured and unconscious, so I wanted to take you to a nearby town to find a doctor for treatment. "
"Oh? Doctor?" Hua Xiaolan smiled disdainfully: "How can any doctor cure me?"
Hua Wuying turned around and frowned slightly.
"What?" Hua Xiaolan saw his eyes and smiled: "Want to help me?"
"Wandu Mountain is also an upright fellow." Hua Wuying said softly: "If I can help, I will help."
Hua Xiaolan sneered: "But I am a witch from southern Xinjiang. I've killed countless people along the way, and if you join forces with me, I'm afraid you will damage the reputation of the young leader!"
"...I don't have much reputation."
Hua Wuying smiled. : "You are suffering from injuries and illnesses. I also believe that if others were not trying to bully you, you would never risk your life and kill people for no reason."
"What's more, now that I am here, maybe you don't have to kill people. You can also find what you want.”
Hua Xiaolan listened with a slight expression on her face: "You know I'm looking for something?"
"I thought you were going to Luoyi to participate in the Qianlong Hundred Heroes Meeting."
< br>Hua Wuying said softly: "But judging from the path you took, that's not the case... In addition, when you were unconscious, I packed your luggage for you and found a lot of fresh herbs in it."
"I think you are looking for some rare herbs to treat your illness and injuries."
Hearing this, Hua Xiaolan curled her lips.
"Although my guess was not entirely correct, it was still quite smart."
As she said this, she suddenly coughed heavily. With this cough, blood oozed from her skin, which was very shocking.
Hua Wuying was shocked. He wanted to do something, but he was at a loss. He could only squat next to her nervously: "How can I help you?"
"Don't worry, you won't die. "
After coughing for a while, Hua Xiaolan wiped the blood from her face, took out an unknown pill from her arms and threw it into her mouth, and then said casually: "Young Master. Leader, do you really want to help me?”
Hua Wuying nodded slightly: "Now that I have met you and you need help, I will not sit idly by."
"Okay, if someone wants to help, I will not refuse."
Hua Xiaolan smiled: "But think about it, what I'm looking for is very difficult to find, and... I'm afraid I will offend many people."
Hua Wuying smiled: "It doesn't matter, I will Do your best to let you find what you want without offending others."
"Huh..."
Hua Xiaolan smiled disdainfully: "Don't talk nonsense, young leader."
"You can't figure out where I'm going next... I'm going east, to Jiangnan. Jinghu and Heishan Islands got their only thousand-year-old bellflower from the Lingjing Sect."
Hua Wuying was surprised when he heard this: "The Lingjing Sect? What is the mysterious sect that appears in the world and only practices magic? "
"That is the foundation of their sect."
Hua Xiaolan said with a smile. It is precisely because of this fairy grass that they have infinite spiritual power for their practice!”
Hua Wuying's eyebrows twitched, and he clearly had a headache.
Seeing his appearance, Hua Xiaolan smiled disdainfully again.
Only this time, she didn't say anything. She stood up silently and supported the tree. She staggered to the side of the horse and briefly checked the horse's luggage to make sure that all her belongings were there.
After doing all this, she struggled to get on the horse, took off Hua Wuying's baggage, threw it at his feet, kicked the horse's belly lightly, and got on the road.
Hua Wuying looked at Hua Xiaolan’s back, suddenly gritted his teeth, picked up the baggage, and jumped away!
As the breeze blew by, he quickly caught up with Hua Xiaolan using his Qinggong. He landed lightly, sat down behind the horse, passed around Hua Xiaolan with his hands, and grabbed the reins.
Hua Xiaolan was startled and looked sideways at him.
“It is such a difficult thing that I want to help you.”
Hua Wuying said sternly: “Otherwise, if the battle between Lingjing Sect and Wandu Mountain is caused, how can Jianghu Aren't we going to be in chaos again?"
Hua Xiaolan looked at the person behind her and smiled slightly: "That sounds nice, but you'd better buy another horse and don't always think about taking advantage of it. I’m cheap.”
Hua Wuying immediately made a big blush...
The horses moved forward slowly, the sunset gradually fell behind the two of them, and the road ahead was also very colorful, but it would not be long before night would fall.
