Angel watched Su Ke fly out, smashing a spark on the ground, and then being washed away by the rain, extinguished, and the surroundings became dim, only thunder and lightning occasionally illuminated the motionless resolute body lying on the ground, and her heart was full of self-blame and guilt, if it weren't for herself, Su Ke would not have been hurt at all.

"How are you, are you okay, does it matter?" Angel ran to Su Ke's side in tears, helped Su Ke sit up, let him lean on his body, and slapped Su Ke's face vigorously. Let the cold rain wash over his body, and he can't tell whether it is rain or tears as he scratches his cheeks.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem...... Cough. "Suk choked on the rain while lying down, coughed vigorously, and then gasped for breath, because the previous battle had consumed too much physical strength, which made him a little dizzy and weak.

"Why are you crying again? Why don't you remember when you said you wanted to be strong?" Su Ke said softly, stroking An Jie'er's cheek.

Seeing that Su Ke was fine, Angel couldn't control her emotions anymore, and with a wow, she hugged Su Ke's neck and cried.

Su Ke patted An Jie'er on the back lightly, and said softly: "Okay, okay, it's all over, don't cry! Get out of here quickly! It's raining, and it's not good if you catch a cold." ”

The clothes of the two had already been soaked by the rain, and when An Jie'er hugged Su Ke, through the clothes mixed with moisture between the two, she could clearly feel the body heat from Su Ke's body, which made An Jie'er blush a little, let go of the arm holding Su Ke, and stood up shyly with her hot little face.

An Jie'er said softly: "Let's go, you have injuries on your body, I'll take you home and help you bandage it." After saying that, he put his hand on his forehead to prevent the rain from getting into his eyes, and walked forward step by step.

Su Ke looked at An Jie'er a little stunned, he was still crying just now, how could he change so quickly all of a sudden? But he didn't think much about it, the previous battle had consumed almost all of his physical strength, and now he just wanted to take a hot bath, fill his stomach, and sleep beautifully.

Suke took off his gray fur coat, walked over to the corpse of the giant lizard, drew his two-handed heavy sword stuck in his skull, wiped the filth stuck to it with his hands, and turned his back behind him, quickly following Angel who was walking in front.

Because the road surface was soaked by rainwater, the road was slippery and muddy, and the two could only stretch out one hand to support their fur coats to cover the rain, and support each other to walk.

After a distance of about four kilometers, the two walked for two hours before entering the town. The town's pavement is made of marble blocks, and although it is not very smooth, it is much better than the slippery dirt road. The buildings on either side are almost all two-storey wooden buildings, and in front of the doors there is a pergola propped up by a few pillars, and some of the pergolas have a wooden desk underneath, which is evident from the stalls set up by small traders selling all kinds of goods.

Angel led Suke through a laneway to the back street, where she stopped in front of a small fenced courtyard.

Suke noticed that the lights were off in almost all the houses, except for one house in the small courtyard in front of him. Obviously, this is Angel's home, and there are still people waiting for her to come back at this moment.

An Jie'er pushed open the door of the small courtyard and said, "I still have my dad at home, and he must still be waiting for me now." My dad is very good, wait a minute, don't be too reserved. Angel didn't know why she would say such a thing.

Suke nodded, indicating that he understood, and smiled with affinity.

The door to the small courtyard was wooden, not too big, and it creaked when pushed open. The two of them took two steps forward, and saw the door of the house being opened, and standing inside the door was the figure of a middle-aged man who was not very tall.

"Anjie'er, you're finally back, hurry, come in, it's raining so hard and you're dying when you come back. The middle-aged man was relieved to see An Jie'er come back safely, and his hanging heart was also relaxed.

"Dad, woo...... Woo...... Woo......" An Jie'er thought that she had walked around the line of life and death not long ago, and when she saw her father's concerned eyes, tears flowed out again, and a thousand words were gathered into one word.

An Jie'er's father noticed that the two of them were dirty, and there was a smell of blood, and the red blood stains could be seen from An Jie'er's white dress, and the heart that had just been put down became nervous again, and he held An Jie'er's shoulders with both hands, and asked eagerly: "What happened? Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine, it was Suke who saved me. An Jie'er cried like a big cat, paused and continued: "I lost all the herbs and tools that I finally picked. ”

"It's okay if you lose something, it's good to come back safely. An Jie'er's father breathed a sigh of relief, comforted An Jie'er, and then looked at Su Ke again, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are Su Ke, right? I am An Jie'er's father, thank you for saving An Jie'er." You're all hungry, aren't you? There's still some food in the kitchen, I'll heat it up for you, there's hot water boiling on the stove over there, you go take a hot shower first, be careful of getting cold. ”

"Uncle, I'm fine, let An Jie'er wash it first, she is more likely to catch a cold as a girl. Su Ke smiled with a very friendly smile as he finished speaking.

Angel wiped away her tears, and her eyes were still a little red. He did catch a cold, and he shivered a little, sneezed, rubbed his nose, and whispered, "Okay then! Dad, Su Ke has a wound on his back, you can help him deal with it first. After saying that, he went up to the second floor, and after a while, he came down with clean clothes, looked at Su Ke, who was sitting by the fire to keep warm, picked up a pot of hot water and went into the bathroom.

Angel's father found Su Ke a fur blanket and asked him to put it on first.

Suke took off his soaked clothes, put on a pair of shorts, wrapped his blanket around his body, and sat by the fire to keep warm.

An Jie'er's father looked at the wound on Su Ke's back, walked to the medicine cabinet, took out some alcohol, medicine, cotton wool, gauze and needle and thread, put it on the stool next to Su Ke, and found another chair for himself, sat on Su Ke's back, and treated the wound.

"The wound is a little big, it's no longer bleeding, let's disinfect it for you first, and then help you stitch it up after you take a shower, so as not to get wet when you take a bath." Angel's father dipped cotton wool in alcohol and carefully smeared Suke's wounds.

Suke nodded and struck up a conversation with Angel's father.

......

Ten minutes later, Suk learns that Angel's father's name is "Jomud Azhead". He made a living by treating injuries and diseases, and his medical skills were taught to him by his father, who was Angel's grandfather.

An Jie'er's mother died when An Jie'er was very young, because An Jie'er's mother treated a patient in a neighboring village, and on the way home, she encountered two robbers, the robbers robbed the property, An Jie'er's mother was unfortunately killed because of resistance, and the nearby villagers heard the news and rushed to catch the robbers, and finally after the interrogation of the town mayor, the two robbers were burned at the stake.

It was not easy for Uncle Qiao Mude to bring up An Jie'er alone, but to his relief, An Jie'er was well-behaved, talented, and as gentle and kind as her mother.

......

Uncle Jomud narrates his own past, and his tone is very flat, as if he is talking about what should be eaten for dinner. But Su Ke knew that Uncle Qiao Mude had never forgotten An Jie'er's mother, which could be seen from his concern for An Jie'er. Uncle Qiaomude's family conditions are good, and it is not a problem at all to marry another wife to take care of him, but he does not. After losing An Jie'er's mother, Uncle Qiao Mude's only wish is to hope that An Jie'er can grow up happily and peacefully. Every time An Jie'er mentioned his mother, his tone was always so flat, because he didn't want to affect An Jie'er's growth because of his sadness. And he can only recall the face that has passed away in the sleepless night.

Angel walked out of the bathroom, she was wearing a bathrobe, as holy and beautiful as a blooming white lotus. She walked over to the fire and sat down, smiling, looking at Suke and her father.

"Young man, you go take a bath first, and I'll make you some ginger soup to ward off the cold. Uncle Jomud finished speaking and walked to the kitchen.

Suke got up, nodded, picked up a pot of hot water, and walked towards the bathroom.

There was still some residual temperature and faint fragrance in the bathroom, but Su Ke didn't care, he couldn't remember the last time he took a hot bath, all he could remember was the blood he had not long ago because he killed the monster, he found a small river, took a cold shower, washed his clothes briefly, dried them with fire magic, put on his clothes and continued on his way.

Su Ke rinsed his body with hot water, dispelling away the exhaustion, as if all the cells were active, which couldn't help but make Su Ke breathe a long sigh of relief.

"It's so comfortable, it's the warmth of home. Suke sighed.

Ten minutes later, Suke walked out of the bathroom, still wearing a fur blanket.

"Come on, drink a bowl of ginger soup first. Uncle Qiao Mude was very enthusiastic, and when he saw Su Ke coming out, he picked up a bowl of ginger soup and handed it over.

Su Ke said thank you, took the ginger soup, and sat down next to the fire.

An Jie'er has improved much after drinking the ginger soup, and her body, which was a little cold before, has also warmed up. She walked behind Sook and sat down, stitching up Sooke's wound.

Angel cleaned Su Ke's wound with alcohol again, then picked up the needle and thread, and gently stitched it together, the technique was very skillful, and every stitch was just right.

Su Ke couldn't feel the pain of the iron needle prick at all, and every time he could only feel the tightness of the flesh being pulled together and the silk threads being locked.

An Jie'er is very serious and confident, looking at the expression as if a girl is embroidering.

When everything was done, Uncle Jomud brought out the hot meal. He smiled and said, "Come on, eat it while it's hot!"

Su Ke was not polite, picked up the bowl and began to eat it.

Although it was just some leftovers, I don't know why, at this moment, it was particularly delicious for Su Ke and Angel.
