Lin Yunchu had no experience with traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions.
I don’t know every medicinal ingredient prescribed there.
Even though she had met a lot of people, she couldn't understand any of the old doctor's emotions.
I don't even know where he stands.
He was not very enthusiastic towards them either. After pointing them to a room, he disappeared.
"Old man, why is there smoke coming from the chimney when you are here? Did you forget to pull out the firewood again? Did you forget that you almost burned down the kitchen last time? How many times have I told you that as soon as I leave, We must destroy the Martian child!"
In the dark night outside, an old woman in her fifties or sixties walked in carrying a backpack.
When Lin Yunchu heard the sound, he quickly walked out of the kitchen and explained to the old woman that he was a family member of the patient who brought his man to see the doctor.
When the old woman saw Lin Yunchu's charming appearance, she was stunned for a moment, then said "Oh", a smile she hadn't seen for a long time appeared on her face, and said, "You come from such a far away place, you must stay at our house."
"You haven't eaten yet. I'll cook for you. The old lady doesn't have anything delicious, so don't be picky."
"Auntie, how could this happen? We are really sorry for bothering you. Don't dislike us. We are really grateful."
"What's your name, auntie? Call me grandma! I'm over sixty this year, but you girl looks like you're only twenty, right?"
the old woman asked with a smile.
"Yes. I just turned eighteen."
"You're only eighteen! That's great! What if..." The old woman's expression suddenly drifted away, and water droplets appeared in her cloudy eyes.
Lin Yunchu felt that he had seen something desolate. The old woman's words sounded like a story.
But she didn't ask. After the medicine was boiled and kept warm, she brought the medicine into the room and handed it to Pei Huaiyuan.
After Pei Huaiyuan drank the medicine, he closed his eyes and lay on the bed to rest.
Lin Yunchu walked into the kitchen again and poured hot water into the bucket.
"Grandma, I'm going to wash my man's feet. He was beaten by my brother, and he still has such a problem that he feels embarrassed to see people. He will not survive." Lin Yunchu said to the old woman.
The old lady nodded and said, "It's normal for young people to be thin-skinned. But it's not a big deal. When you are like us, you will find that as long as you are healthy and safe, sometimes being born is not a good thing for a child. …”
"..."
"Also, you are staying at our house at night, don't go out, you know? If you can, you can stay a few more days."
"Go on, get some water and go find your man."
The old lady looked anxious and kept waving her hands, urging her to enter the house quickly.
*
Lin Yunchu returned to the house again.
Pei Huaiyuan opened his eyes suddenly. After a quick glance, he found that the person who came in was Lin Yunchu, and his tense expression relaxed again.
"Man, wash your feet."
Lin Yunchu placed the barrel in front of Pei Huaiyuan.
Pei Huaiyuan looked at the hot water and said, "No, I won't wash."
It had been a long time since he had had a good night's sleep and been properly cleaned.
He knew that he was dirty, but he didn't dare to wash it, fearing that if he washed it, he would feel too comfortable and fall asleep without alertness.
Lin Yunchu's delicate brows furrowed, and he said loudly and displeasedly, "I've poured the water, but you don't wash it? That's my brother, and that's your brother. As a kid, isn't it normal for you to be beaten? Why do you return the favor? Are you angry?"
"Although it's your fault, I really don't dislike you! You don't take a shower or wash your feet. Are you going to smoke me to death later?"
"..." Pei Huaiyuan remained unmoved.
Lin Yunchu came over and lowered his voice and said softly, "It's all a show. Don't show off! I just talked with the old lady, but I think her tone and expression are weird. I can't be sure whether she and the old doctor are good or bad people." We are not sure whether we are safe at the moment, but you have to hold on for me, if anyone knows you are injured, we will all be in trouble."
If the two men didn't show up when she met him, she would definitely try her best to take him back. However, those two men showed up. If she didn't pretend to be husband and wife with him, it would be impossible for her to leave that place even half a step.
She finally settled into the old doctor's house. She thought she could spend the night safely, but she found that the old doctor and the old woman were very strange.
She had the feeling that she had not yet emerged from the wolf's den, but had fallen into a hole of fire.
Pei Huaiyuan's eyes fell deeply on Lin Yunchu, and after a few seconds, he put his feet into the barrel.
The water in the barrel is neither cold nor hot and very comfortable.
This was a comfort he hadn't felt in a long time.
"That's right! Otherwise, if you live with grandma, it would be embarrassing to stain the sheets at grandma's house."
Lin Yunchu said loudly.
Seeing that Pei Huaiyuan was having a hard time bending down and washing his feet very slowly, Lin Yunchu frowned and said, forget it, help others to the end and send the Buddha to the west.
She might as well help.
She squatted in front of him, squeezed and rubbed his feet.
Then he wrung out the handkerchief and wiped his face.
"Well, take off your clothes and I'll wipe you down."
"..." Pei Huaiyuan subconsciously tightened his clothes.
Lin Yunchu couldn't laugh or cry.
"Take off your clothes, who is going to suffer?"
"You have a bruised nose and a swollen face. What's so good about you? You can't see your abdominal muscles, and you can't see your chest muscles."
For some reason, the more serious he was, the more she wanted to tease him.
Pei Huaiyuan frowned and relaxed, simply picked up his clothes and took them off.
"..." Lin Yunchu was stunned.
For the first time, I discovered that I had made a mistake in my understanding.
There were many bruises and scratches on the man's neck and cheeks. He was so thin that his eyes were sunken. She thought he had been starving to survive in the wild, but she didn't expect this man to have abdominal muscles. You need chest muscles, chest muscles, and even arm muscles to be very powerful.
In addition to discovering her misunderstanding, what shocked her even more was the injuries on his body.
There was a thick bandage wrapped around his belly button, and the bandage was full of blood.
His ribs were covered in bruises and purple bruises. He didn't know how serious his injuries were, but they were certainly not minor.
No wonder he didn't take off his clothes just now.
This wound made Lin Yunchu a little worried.
Thinking of how he fainted when he met her again, Lin Yunchu had a bad feeling.
If it hadn't been as she expected, he would have been teetering on the edge of collapse of willpower.
She didn't know what mission he was performing, but the person Mr. Si was looking for must be a hero.
"Maybe you can try to trust me a little more." Lin Yunchu looked at him with clear eyes and said, "Yesterday Mr. Yueshi Si came to see me. He said that you are very important. He mobilized everyone in the city to look for you. , saving you."
"I won't ask anything about you, but I will do my best to protect you. To protect you from here safely back to where you want to go back."
The girl's voice was gentle and powerful, sincere and firm; her eyes were clear and bright, as if printed with thousands of stars. The moment Pei Huaiyuan met her eyes, he lost consciousness for an instant, and a powerful force seemed to be injected into his heart. This power made him The heart that was about to collapse became strong.
He is not alone.
His comrades have been looking for him.
Even the girl in front of him said that she would protect him.
It would be a lie to say that I am not impressed.
Pei Huaiyuan's eyes moved slightly, but the expression on his face remained unchanged.
Lin Yunchu slowly wiped his wound, fearing that he would be hurt, so she moved as gently as possible.
After cleaning him, she took the water out and poured it into the small ditch in front of the old doctor's house.
The water in the bucket was very bloody. Only by pouring it into a small ditch could his injuries be avoided.
After taking care of it, Lin Yunchu returned to the room. Pei Huaiyuan's posture was similar to before.
Although she made her attitude clear, he still remained alert to fight at any time.
"How about? You sleep inside?"
Lin Yunchu spoke to him.
"..." Pei Huaiyuan's eyes were slightly surprised. She had already done enough in the previous scene, so she also had to do this?
