"Ahem, it's Ergou, you're back." The coughing in the room was incessant, and he was still gasping for breath after saying this.

The furnishings in the house are very simple, there is an elm table at the door, black and shiny, and a few small stools, there is a coughing sound from the small room on the left, it should be the room where Wang Ergou's mother lives, and there is a window on the right, which brings a faint light to this somewhat dim room,

"And the guests, I'll go boil the water, ahem," the old woman propped herself up, trying to get up.

"Old man, don't bother, you have a good rest, we are not thirsty, we don't bother you." Li Chao didn't want to trouble the old man who was sick in bed, and besides, he didn't care about this etiquette because of the urgency of time, and the second daughter was useless here, so he sent Yang Buregret and Zhou Zhiruo to go outside to let off steam, so as to know in advance whether Yuan Bing would chase after him.

"Old man, I am the doctor invited by your son, come, let me show you."

After a while, Li Chao let go of his hand, and Wang Ergou on the side hurriedly asked, "Engong, how is my mother's condition?" ”

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I'm overworked, my body is too weak, and I need to rest more and not be too tired." Li Chao motioned for Wang Ergou to go outside the house, and only spoke when he got outside.

"That's it, it's a pity that the ginseng I bought with all my savings was taken by that hateful soldier, otherwise I could have made up for my mother." Wang Ergou's face was full of hatred, and the Yuan people were really not things.

"It's okay, I've already helped you get your ginseng back, just boil some ginseng soup for your mother to take later, and then rest more." Li Chao smiled and took out the ginseng in his arms and stuffed it into Wang Ergou's hand.

Wang Ergou cried with joy when he saw the lost ginseng: "Thank you Engong, I thought I would never be able to get this ginseng again." Wiped away his tears, held the ginseng in his hand tightly, and went outside the house to decoct the medicine.

"Old man, I'll treat you first, and then drink the ginseng soup, and there will be nothing wrong." Li Chao retracted his gaze, talked with the old man with a pleasant face, and after the source force ran around in his body, Li Chao opened his palm, and a cloud of black impurities was washed out of the body, and with a slight tremble, he floated out of the house and disappeared.

"Alright, old man, are you much better now?" Because the old lady was too weak, Li Chao slowed down the treatment and spent nearly two cups of tea to eradicate her disease.

"Hey, it's really much better, I don't cough anymore, the whole person is much better" The old lady was pleasantly surprised, just now she was a little out of breath, and her lungs almost had to cough out, but now she breathes smoothly, her hands are propped up on the bed, and she sits up with a little force.

"Mother, why do you sit up, lie down and rest." Wang Ergou, who had gone to boil ginseng soup before, walked in with a porcelain bowl, saw his mother sitting up, and hurriedly put the porcelain bowl in his hand aside and went to help.

"It's okay, son, thanks to this doctor, he treated me just now, and now I feel much better."

Wang Ergou looked at his mother's expression carefully, it was not as pale as before, and his voice was loud, and he didn't cough anymore, he looked at Li Chao very happily and said:

"Thank you so much, if it weren't for you, my mother and I would probably be dead, and I will definitely repay you for your great kindness."

When Wang Ergou was young, his father had to work day and night because of heavy taxes, and often went to the mountains to hunt to subsidize the family.

Since the death of his father, Ergou has been dependent on his mother, and his mother has to work several short-term jobs for this family, so Ergou has been very mature since he was a child, very filial and obedient and does not cause trouble, and often will support himself to play some small animals or fish, etc., to save some food for his family.

This time, his mother fell seriously ill, and at the age of sixteen, he sold everything he could sell at home, and finally exchanged for a ginseng to save his mother's life, which will happen when Li Chao met him later.

But Wang Ergou remembered that Engong was strong in martial arts, and it was estimated that he didn't need to repay his kindness, thinking of this, his heart was gloomy, and he hated himself for being useless.

Looking at Wang Ergou, who suddenly fell silent, Li Chao also guessed a few points, patted Wang Ergou on the shoulder and told him to come out after serving his mother and drinking medicine, and he had something to tell him.

As soon as they came out of the room, Yang Buregret and Zhou Zhiruo outside the house rushed in with a look of urgency, and when they saw Li Chao who happened to come out, they hurriedly said:

"Oh no, the village chief has come to a team of Yuan soldiers, let's hurry up and find a way."

"Coming so soon?" Although Li Chao was a little surprised, he was not flustered, and he pondered for a moment before he slowly spoke:

"Don't panic, I'll go and see the situation before making a decision, you two wait here for me first."

"But" Yang Buregret just wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhou Zhiruo: "Sister, with the two of us going to martial arts, we won't be able to help much, and it will affect the son." ”

"Well, you have to be careful." Yang Buregret hated him very much at this time for why he didn't study martial arts well, but now that something happened, he couldn't help anything.

"Don't worry, these people can't stop me." Li Chao took them into his arms and kissed the two, gentle and relieved.

Time was urgent, and after hugging, Li Chao quickly turned around, and the whole person disappeared in the blink of an eye like a breeze.

"Two masters, do you think there will be any trace of them in this village?" The person who came was a team of people led by Zhao Min, there were more than a hundred people, and the momentum was huge, and the people of this small village were all rushed together by the Yuan soldiers, waiting for the questioning of the visitor.

"Who is the village chief here?" Zhao Min rode a high-headed horse and looked at the group of villagers in front of him condescendingly, his voice was not loud, but it reached the ears of these people.

"The villain is the head of this village, I don't know what Shangguan commands." There was a commotion in the crowd, and after a while, a reluctant person walked out, only to see that his clothes were patched, brown cloth and linen, his face was old, there was a wisp of beard on his chin, and his hair was all gray.

"Have any strangers from your village been here today?" asked Hebi Weng.

"Shangguan, I am harvesting grain in the field today, and the people in the village are here, and no outsiders have come." The village chief bowed his head and bent over, his voice trembling.

"No outsiders? Whose carriage belonged to outside the village? You old thing, you dare to lie, I think you're impatient. A hint of anger flashed on the face of the deer sticker, the carriage was outside the village, could it be that the gang could still fly away? This group of Diao people just didn't obey, thinking of this, the killing intent in their hearts flooded, and the right hand that grabbed the reins and slapped it towards the village chief.

"Spare life" The village chief knelt on the ground, not daring to make any other movements, so he could only close his eyes and wait for death. sighed in his heart, hoping that his death would make these people angry, otherwise the whole village would probably die because of it. This kind of thing has happened in many villages, and those soldiers will slaughter the villages, burn, kill and rob if they don't like it, and do all kinds of evil.

"Huh"

"Huh? Who is it? The deer sticker's heart beat wildly, and he quickly withdrew his palms halfway, put his hands on his chest, and used his internal force to block in front of him.

Boom!

As if struck by an elephant, the deer fell from the horse and fell to the ground, his face was bruised, and at the same time, a small pebble bounced in front of him a few times and landed in front of him. The Yuan soldiers all pulled out their weapons one after another, vigilant around.

"Sect Leader Li, don't hide, I know it's you, if you don't come out, these villagers won't be able to talk about it." Zhao Min raised his hand to stop the movement of the Yuan soldiers, and calmly rode on the horse, waiting for someone to appear.

"I said, don't you want to be so vicious, you're still a girl." A helpless sound came, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of everyone, who was not Li Chao.

"These villagers are innocent, what are you doing with them, it's not easy for them to live, don't embarrass them." Li Chao is also angry with the means of the two elders of Xuan Ming, the two of them are also innate martial artists, and they want to kill a woman and a child and an old man without a bottom line, if Li Chao didn't stand up just now, I'm afraid they will kill one after another.
