Seeing Jing Xi come back, Shen Ling breathed a sigh of relief, "What did you just go back for?"

Jing Xi smiled at Shen Ling after hearing this, "It's nothing, it's just a small trouble."

Shen Linghu glanced at Jing Ci suspiciously, but in the end she didn't ask anything, anyway, she had already told the village chief, and the village chief was still staring at the secret passage, so there must be no chaos.

Now it is more important for her to hurry up and leave, otherwise when the people who captured her catch up, it will be troublesome to leave at that time.

"Let's go."

Shen Ling lowered the curtain as he spoke, the carriage moved, and the carriage that followed behind Shen Ling saw this, and also began to drive the horse, and the group left the village and drove towards Yancheng on the border.

In the village, the insect tide gradually receded, and the village chief looked at the people lying on the ground and sighed.

He is now sending Shen Ling and the others away, but the mess here is still waiting for him to deal with.

Seeing that the village chief was coming, the female corpse moved to the village chief's side in a few steps, tilted her head to look at the village chief, and made a gurgling sound in her mouth.

The village chief was still inspecting the people on the ground, but when he heard this, he turned his head and looked at the female corpse, his expression was much gentler, and his eyebrows, which were originally a little wrinkled, were loose.

He reached out and touched the head of the female corpse, "Daughter, you go back first, I'll go to you after I'm done dealing with this matter."

The female corpse listened to the village chief's words very much, nodded obediently, and then left by herself.

Seeing that the female corpse had left, the village chief continued what he had to do before, he found an old wooden cart from the dilapidated corner of the village, rolled up his sleeves and bent down to carry the unconscious man in dark blue clothes and Song Linyuan on the ground.

The people in dark blue clothes were Song Linyuan's cronies, and Shen Ling specially left their lives at that time, as to repay the white dragon and white phoenix for helping her in the temple.

Then the village chief walked to the front of the wooden cart and pulled the cart out of the village.

Just went back and forth a few times before the village chief moved all Song Linyuan's cronies away.

I think he is also a disciple of Qimen, and he is also a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes, but now he is doing this kind of hard work here.

The village chief thought, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, if it wasn't for his daughter's accident, he wouldn't have stayed in this small village.

After moving everyone out of the village, the village chief did not leave, he found a big rock by the side of the road, and sat on it.

Time passed minute by minute, the sun gradually set, the last light on the horizon was swallowed up, and night fell, without moon or stars.

When Song Linyuan woke up, he was screaming for pain all over his body, and he didn't get up and just lay on the ground, and his eyes were dark in the sky.

He gulped in the air, heavy breathing that was especially evident in the quiet night.

Song Linyuan said to himself in disbelief, "I'm still alive."

The village chief sat on a stone not far from Song Linyuan, and when he heard Song Linyuan's muttering, he sneered.

Song Linyuan had just woken up, and the sky was dark, and the village chief was silent, so he couldn't find the village chief for a while.

Now that he suddenly heard a voice, Song Linyuan became vigilant, he got up instantly, and his eyes shot towards the place where the village chief was sitting like an eagle.

Although the sky was dim, Song Linyuan still saw the appearance of the village chief clearly, his brows furrowed slightly, and the vigilance in his heart increased again.

This person had obviously put insects in the village to deal with his subordinates before, and even helped Jing Xi stop him, how could he be here now.

Song Linyuan didn't believe that this old man would be kind enough to save him, the reason why he was here now must be something that he didn't know was happening.

"Why are you here?"

When Song Linyuan spoke, his eyes stayed on the village chief's body, and he never moved away, he carefully observed the village chief's expression, wanting to find some clues from the village chief's face.

But the village chief just sat on the stone and didn't move, and didn't even look at Song Linyuan.

Seeing that the village chief didn't move, and didn't speak, Song Lin

The corners of Yuan's mouth hooked a mocking arc, and he lay down on the ground again.

At this time, if the village chief attacked him, it would be difficult for him to avoid the village chief's attack, but Song Linyuan didn't care.

Thinking of what happened in the village, all the emotions in Song Linyuan's eyes were fading, leaving only an empty nothingness, and the whole person had no vitality when he first woke up.

His voice was low and tinged with endless weariness.

"It would be nice if I just died like that, so that I wouldn't feel heartache because of Ling'er."

Hearing this, the village chief finally made a move, he glanced at Song Linyuan without being salty, and his tone was very indifferent.

"The county lord let you go and let me pull you out, but it's not for you to beg for death."

"Ling'er?"

Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Song Linyuan's eyes, which were originally as dark as night, like stars falling into darkness, giving people the last light.

Song Linyuan rekindled a glimmer of hope in his heart, and he hurriedly asked.

"Ling'er, why did she save me?"

The village chief was taken aback by Song Linyuan's sudden burst of hope, and remembering Shen Ling's previous instructions to him, the village chief straightened his face.

He said solemnly: "The county lord said that you once sent the two brothers and sisters of Bailong and Baifeng to help her in the temple, she inherited your kindness, and later captured the county lord's subordinates, and also led troops to arrest the county lord, the county lord does not blame you, so he should repay the protection of Bailong and Baifeng for her along the way."

"The county lord also told me that Xiao Qianqian is your betrothed, she once saved Xiao Qianqian on the boat, and now she lets you go, you husband and wife, now you owe the county lord two lives, so you must help the county lord drag down the chasing soldiers sent by the emperor."

"From now on, you and the county lord have settled their grievances, and there is no relationship between you."

After the village chief said these words, he closed his mouth, and only two pairs of old eyes looked at Song Linyuan seriously, waiting for Song Linyuan's reply.

After listening to the village chief's words, the starlight under Song Linyuan's eyes dimmed, and the taste of blood in his mouth gradually diffused with a bitter taste.

"Even if Ling'er doesn't say it, I'll help her hold off the pursuers."

"For her sake, I'm willing."

The village chief's expression was neither sad nor happy, but he emphasized again: "No matter what purpose you are helping the county lord, you must remember that from now on there is no relationship between you and the county lord, and you should not pester the county lord again."

As he spoke, the village chief took out a few small porcelain bottles from his arms and handed them to Song Linyuan.

"This is the medicine to treat your injuries, and the group leader said that only when you heal your injuries can you better help hold back the pursuers."

As the village chief's voice fell, there was a sound of rustling around.
