Chapter 2: Forced to Save People
"Do you want to live?" The man was tall, and his face was blurred by blood stains but his angular features were vaguely visible, especially those eyes, which were cold and deep, staring at Zhong Lingyu and asking questions at the moment.
Zhong Lingyu, who was pointed, couldn't speak, so he could only blink desperately.
Seeing this, the man nodded with satisfaction, and then pinched Zhong Lingyu's mouth and fed a black-brown unknown pill.
"It's a chronic poison that attacks periodically, and each attack makes people feel so painful that it gets worse and worse, and it hurts to death.
But as long as you are obedient, I will not embarrass you. ”
With that, he raised his hand to untie Zhong Lingyu's acupoint, and then sat down against the root of the tree by the side of the road as if he had exhausted his strength.
"So, what do you want me to do? Help you find a doctor and a place to hide? Suddenly encountered, although Zhong Lingyu was panicked in his heart, he still tried his best to make a calm appearance on his face, and guessed clearly in his mind.
"What a smart girl." After hearing this, the man glanced at Zhong Lingyu with a little appreciation.
"Or else? If you really want to kill me, I'm afraid that the first stone to smash me will kill me. ”
"But the stone can't be returned to you, don't forget, you smashed me first." But thanks to this stone, it gave him a chance to live.
"So, would you like to help me?" The man looked at Zhong Lingyu again and asked, his voice already carrying imperceptible weakness.
"Do I have any other choice but to help you?" Zhong Lingyu resigned himself to helping the man up, planning to send him to a cave on the mountain to hide, but he still asked a few more words uneasily, "Eh, is your injury caused by the enemy's pursuit and killing?" Is there still an enemy? Will they come to you? When the time comes, won't I, the one who saved you, also suffer? ”
"Hey, hey, hey...... Are you talking? Seeing that the person didn't respond for a long time, and his shoulders sank a little inexplicably, Zhong Lingyu seemed to realize something, and hurriedly turned sideways to check, only to find that the person had fainted.
No wonder she felt the big head on her shoulders heavier, it turned out that all the weight was on her after fainting.
Eh, fainted......
Zhong Lingyu's heart moved, and he threw the person down suddenly.
Seeing that the man seemed to be unconscious at all, the back of his head hit the ground, and Zhong Lingyu believed that the man had really fainted.
"I didn't expect you to be really dizzy."
"Let you threaten this girl, and now you will be punished, and when this girl finds the antidote in you, she will send you to the official." Zhong Lingyu slapped one hand on the man's face, and the other hand rummaged through the man's clothes, trying to find the so-called antidote.
But she was about to strip people away, and she didn't find anything like medicine, let alone an antidote that could save her.
Zhong Lingyu collapsed and was helpless, almost crying, but for the sake of his own life, he honestly wiped away his tears, helped people up, and walked towards the mountain step by step.
At this time, a familiar man came to the path, and when he looked closely, it was her second brother Zhong Erhe.
"Second brother...... The second brother ......, "Zhong Lingyu hurriedly asked for help."
"Lingyu, why are you here?" Zhong Erhe said as he picked up the hoe and slammed it in front of the man leaning on Zhong Lingyu's body, "Also, who is he?" ”
"I don't know, but he said that as long as I save him, he will give me a hundred taels of silver after the deed, but he fainted not long after he finished speaking." Zhong Lingyu hesitated, but he didn't say the fact that his life was controlled by others.
"One hundred taels?!" Zhong Erhe's face changed, he threw the hoe on the spot, and carried the man on his back, "Lingyu, let's let the second brother come, you have little strength and walk slowly, and when you get home, he is stiff." ”
