Looking at Liuli's ankle covered with her hands, she said, "You're injured, let me take a look at it! I happen to be a doctor."
"Thank you, sister." Liuli saw that the other party's attitude was kind, and the guard in her heart gradually faded away, and she naturally responded. At this time, she naturally wanted to get better as soon as possible.
Xiao Ming helped her sit down on the hay, then took out a box of snacks from the medicine box and handed her a water bag, "There is some water and snacks here, you can eat them first to cushion your stomach."
Liuli thanked her softly, took it, and watched as she took out a bottle of safflower oil from the medicine box, poured it into her palms, rubbed her hands continuously, and then pressed it on her ankles, feeling a slight warmth on her ankles. , the other party's movements were gentle and moderate, and he massaged her sore spots. After a while, a comfortable feeling spread from her feet to her whole body, and her foot injury was much better. Liuli took another look at the other party.
He is truly a doctor, and a very careful doctor.
Liuli carefully opened the snack box. There were six small snacks placed side by side in two rows. The pink crystal cake was in the shape of a peach blossom. It looked very beautiful, just like the blooming peach tree in front of the cave entrance. open.
When she thought about peach blossoms, she suddenly thought of the young man under the peach blossom tree.
She is his sister, is his surname also Xiao?
She suddenly raised her head and looked at Xiao Ming, who was concentrating on treating her injuries. Her red lips twitched slightly. She wanted to ask her benefactor's name, but she felt it was rude, so she had to keep her words of thanks in her heart.
If news of what happened yesterday were reported back to Beijing, even if she escaped safely, there would still be bad rumors spread with someone as noble as her! The delicate pastries were not eaten in the end. She carefully closed the box and held it in her arms.
Xiao Ming didn't say much when she saw this, thinking that maybe the Liuli girl was not hungry, or had eaten very little. The girls here were all slender and weak, and maybe they didn't eat breakfast in order to stay in shape.
However, it was more likely that he was on guard because he didn’t know him.
Thinking wildly, Xiao Ming felt that her thoughts were ridiculous. She used the opportunity to pack the medicine box to hide her smile, and then slowly stood up with support.
"Let's set off too! The carriage is just ahead. Where is the girl's home? I'll take you back."
Liuli thought for a while and said, "I'm going to the capital to join my relatives."
Xiao Ming laughed when she heard this: "That's a coincidence, I'm also going back to Beijing, let's go!"
"Woof..., woof..."
Maomao, who was guarding the entrance of the cave, screamed eagerly, continuously, giving people a sense of urgency.
Liuli's face turned pale instantly, and her heart started to beat wildly. She thought of the person who suddenly attacked the carriage yesterday. They didn't steal property. They pestered the guards, grabbed the carriage and ran away. They didn't look like a serious group of robbers at all.
Xiao Ming also frowned secretly, knowing that the person coming was definitely not someone they knew, otherwise Maomao would not have made such a cry.
"Don't worry, I'll go take a look first." Xiao Ming had no choice but to help Liuli sit down, comfort her, and take out a dagger from the medicine box.
"Keep this for yourself."
Liuli was startled, then reached out and took it, thanking her softly. However, she was still worried. At this time, they were two weak women, and how could they defend themselves with a dagger? They had no choice but to commit suicide.
How could Xiao Ming think so pessimistically as Miss Liuli, so she walked out of the cave alone.
"Is this..., is this a wolf or a dog? Boss, what should I do? Do you want to attack?" The voice outside the cave contained fear that I was not even aware of.
Maomao has stopped howling. His big head is slightly lowered, but his eyes are staring fiercely at the three people in front of him. He jumps forward, his mouth is open, showing his sharp teeth, and he roars in a deep throat, threatening the three people in front of him. .
Threatened by it, the three people in front were stunned and did not dare to move. They have knives, they have martial arts, and they know that if the two sides fight, the three of them will definitely kill this guy who is either a wolf or a dog.
Even so, who wants to be the first to eat crabs?
This guy means business.
Is it a wolf or a dog?
Call it a wolf! It was clearly a dog barking just now. It's a dog! His body shape is almost as big as that of a calf.
The mouth was so big and the teeth were so sharp that it could bite off a person's neck in one bite. It also left claw marks on the ground as deep as ravines. When the claws came down, even the bones had to be clawed out.
The two sides were at loggerheads and they were very nervous. Motionless, an aggrieved atmosphere spread among the three of them.
"Can a living person be suffocated to death by an animal? Pei Ye, you have quick legs and feet, go and lure it away." Finally, the leader spoke.
The one named Pei Ye:...
My legs and feet are fast? I'm not right, I'm wrong...
For the first time in my life, I doubted my own abilities.
When Xiao Ming came out, she saw the two armies confronting each other and saw the people on the opposite side clearly. She was silent in her heart and only sighed at what a coincidence.
What was inside the cave and what was outside the cave were really coincidental. In an instant, she seemed to understand something.
"Maomao is back." Xiao Ming called, walked over and touched Maomao's head, and then said to the obviously stunned person opposite: "Brother Chen, why are you here?"
The three of them were shocked.
"Dr. Xiao, is this your dog?"
Seeing that it was Xiao Ming, Chen Fang breathed a sigh of relief, put away his weapon, and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"Haha! It's so hot this early in the morning. It's definitely going to be another sunny day today."
"I raised him. This dog is very timid and timid. He likes to bark when he sees people." Xiao Ming half-crouched and lovingly stroked the shiny black hair on Maomao's body.
The three people opposite:...
I'm afraid you have a special interpretation of the word timid.
"Brother Chen, what are you doing here?" Xiao Ming did not get up, nor did she mean to make way for the three of them. Instead, she took the initiative to ask Chen Fang the reason for their visit.
Seeing this, Chen Fang looked behind her briefly, winked at the two companions beside him, and said, "Pei Ye, Wei Gang, you go over there."
"Yes." Both of them were disciplined people. After receiving the order, they took the order and dispersed.
Xiao Ming didn't speak, but quietly comforted Maomao.
"Doctor Xiao, to be honest, Chen was ordered to leave the palace to search for someone. Princess Jinghe disappeared on her way back to Beijing yesterday. The emperor ordered us to come to the rescue." Chen Fang clasped his fists and whispered his purpose. When he saw it, Although Lai Ying's matter is confidential, who is Xiao Ming? She is a fellow disciple of Master Mingzhen, and she is also related to Linlang Countyism. Her appearance here is definitely not accidental. Sooner or later, she will know about Princess Jinghe's death.
At the same time, he also wanted Xiao Ming's help.
Chen Fang's motive was like a mirror in Xiao Ming's mind. This Chen Fang would have made up his mind and wanted to sell her out. Even if he disappeared, he rescued her. Presumably he wanted to tell her that Princess Jinghe was in danger. Until now Haven't found it yet.
As for Liuli's identity, if there were only five points just now, then there are seven or eight points now.
"Oh, it's really a big deal that the princess can disappear. No wonder Chen Weiwei is working so hard. Yesterday I went out of the city to play in a farm, and I happened to meet a girl on the way. The two of us hit it off and went to play in the farm together. Half a day, I’m going back to Beijing today.”
Chen Fang's heart trembled when he heard this. Could this girl be a princess...
Thinking of this, Chen Fang couldn't help but take a deep look at Xiao Ming.
Xiao Ming tilted her head slightly, and Chen Fang followed his gaze and happened to see the girl standing by the rock. She was not the person they had worked so hard to find.
"It's getting late, how about we follow Guard Chen's motorcade back to Beijing?" Xiao Ming suggested.
No need to say more, everything is in silence.
Chen Fang resisted the urge to bow down and bowed deeply to Xiao Ming.
