No one thought that the reason why Young Master Xiao would abandon his sister and rush back to Hansai City was just because of an error.
Xiao Zhaoxue bit her lower lip and looked at him aggrievedly. Tears rolled down her eyes like beads. Xiao Er also blamed himself and felt so guilty that he didn't know what to do. His eyes flickered left and right to Sikong Ji and Ming Ruoxie. On the body, "What about them?"
"At that time, I almost got killed in Lucheng. They saved me. They also wanted to come to Hansai City, so they sent me back by the way. Second brother, they are my benefactors." Xiao Zhao Xue emphasized this point. At this time, she still didn't know whether she could directly tell the identities of Sikong Ji and Ming Ruoxie at this door in front of the mute doctor.
But he was afraid that Xiao Er would be disrespectful to them, so he quickly told them about his life-saving grace.
Xiao Er knelt down with a thud, then kowtowed three times to Sikong Ji and Ming Ruoxie.
Ming Ruoxie hid aside, a little speechless.
It seems that Xiao Er, who is quite handsome, is indeed a bit stunned, otherwise he would not have made such a mistake and just lost his sister.
"Thank you both for saving my sister's life. It's a great kindness. Our Xiao family will repay you well in the future. Now please come into the house quickly. I have to see if the water bandits have been stopped. If there are water bandits, Rush into the city and plunder everyone later. The lady is so beautiful, they will definitely want to take you back. I heard that their water bandits can only marry few women, so every woman they steal has to serve multiple husbands. Yes, it¡¯s scary, hide quickly.¡±
That¡¯s right to say¡ª¡ª
Sikong Ji¡¯s fists were hardened.
How can you talk so much?
Xiao Zhaoxue also pinched the second brother's arm hard, her face turned red. She was so angry just now and wanted to beat this crazy second brother to death, but now she heard him talking nonsense here. Yes, she was afraid that he would cause trouble and be beaten to death by King Jin later.
It¡¯s really hard to be Xiao Er¡¯s sister.
"Get up."
Ming Ruoxie held back her laughter, Xiao Er turned out to be a fool. However, thinking of what the abbot of Feiruo Temple said, saying that the daughter of a wealthy family named Ji in this city was kidnapped by water bandits, and that Miss Ji seemed to be Xiao Er's sweetheart, Ming Ruoxie felt that she could still survive at this time. By saying these words to her, maybe Xiao Er really cared about her and wanted to persuade her to pay attention to the water bandits.
Sure enough, Xiao Er didn't know what he thought of after he got up, his eyes were a little red, and he said to Sikong Ji: "You two, don't blame me for speaking too bluntly. In fact, there were many noble people from other places who heard the water here. After the bandits attacked, none of them took it seriously, thinking that the city gate could not be breached and the soldiers guarding the city would stop the water bandits from outside. They wandered around the streets as if nothing had happened, and then they met the water bandits."
Sikong Ji had been listening carefully to the goings-on around him since just now. He also heard people banging gongs from all directions to tell people outside to go home and close their doors to prepare against the water bandits. People on the streets and bridges were rushing to Running around the house, there were some younger people who helped guide the way and prevent people from causing chaos.
It was clear that the water bandits had already attacked, but Xiao Er could still kowtow to them here to thank them, probably because they themselves had experience fighting the water bandits and knew how long they had to prepare.
The other servants in the Xiao Mansion have already taken action.
Ming Ruoxie also saw some servants climbing up the wall and placing their bows on the courtyard wall. At the three protective fences in front of the door, people had already come out with swords and stood apart, staring ahead warily. road.
Even a teenage girl like Xiao Zhaoxue was not too nervous.
It seems that the attack of water bandits is really a common thing for the people in Hansai City. But even if it is normal, there is still fear and panic.
Ming Ruoxie heard a servant girl in the corner behind the door grabbing hold of a servant who rushed out with a sword. It must be a mother and son. The servant girl told him to be careful, her voice was choked with sobs.
The servant looked like he was only thirteen or fourteen years old. When he rushed out, Ming Ruoxie saw that his hand holding the sword was a little nervous and too hard, and his knuckles were turning blue.
She glanced at them and saw that their expressions were all tense and frightened. When they arrived in Hansai City, the weather was getting colder and colder. Now the wind cut their faces with some biting pain. If they wore more clothes, they might be fighting. It would not be so flexible, so the people who came out were not wearing thick cotton-padded jackets. Their faces were cold and scared, and they were all a little cold.
Ming Ruoxie also paid some attention to the mute doctor.
Since I was a little shocked when I first saw her,??He calmed down quickly and never looked towards her. Moreover, he looked very dull and silent. He stood there waiting with his head lowered and the medicine box on his back. He seemed to have no sense of existence. look.
But on such a cold day, those teenagers were still shaking a little, but Ming Ruoxie noticed that the mute doctor was standing there as steady as anything, not shaking at all.
Even though he was dressed so shabbily, he didn¡¯t look very warm, wasn¡¯t he cold?
"Zhaoxue, hurry up and take the mute doctor in to see dad and brother. You greet the guests first. I'm going to the city gate to have a look." At this time, Xiao Er didn't care what to say to Ming Ruoxie, Sikongji and the others. , he quickly rushed to get on his horse, ignored Xiao Zhaoxue's cry, scolded, and galloped away.
"Second brother! Be careful!"
Xiao Zhaoxue's voice was trembling and choked with sobs. She looked at Xiao Er's back. Although he didn't see it, she still waved her hand vigorously.
Young Master Xiao was originally injured while fighting the bandits at the city gate. Now that Xiao Er has gone there again, Xiao Zhaoxue is very worried that she will also be injured there.
But after shouting like this, she sniffed hard, then ran over to support the mute doctor, "Mute doctor, please show my father and brother quickly, they are injured too seriously."
The mute doctor nodded silently and was supported by her to walk to Xiao's house.
When passing Ming Ruoxie and Sikongji, Xiao Zhaoxue said to them again, "You two should come in quickly. You can't stay outside. No one can say when those water bandits will come in."
"Ruoruo, let's go in." Sikong Ji pulled Ming Ruoxie and followed them into the gate.
Both of their eyes fell on the mute doctor¡¯s back.
"You two, I will ask someone to arrange for you to go to the guest room. Once you enter, close the door tightly and don't come out." Xiao Zhaoxue turned around and said a little apologetically, "I have to take the mute doctor to see my father first."
"I'll go with you." Ming Ruoxie said suddenly.
Xiao Zhaoxue was stunned for a moment.
"Ms. Xiao may not know yet, but I also know some medical skills, so I can go and see if I can be of any help." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
