Escape after crossing

Chapter 44 White 1

"Village chief, this is it. I want to find out something. Consider this as my hard-earned money." Bai Yi said as he took out a five-liang silver ingot and handed it to Village Chief Zheng.

Village chief Zheng and Zheng Daqiang looked at each other. This ingot of silver was what their family had spent for more than a year.

How could he not be tempted? But Village Chief Zheng knew that such a large amount of money might not be easy to take.

Village Chief Zheng refused the money and said, "What do you want to ask? I will tell you what I know."

Bai Yi was smart enough not to push the silver over. Instead, he followed what Village Chief Zheng said and asked.

"Village chief, is there a little girl in your village who knows medical skills?"

"No, there are doctors in our village who know how to treat illnesses, but they are middle-aged men. There are no young girls who know how to treat illnesses."

Village Chief Zheng shook his head as he spoke, but Zheng Daqiang suddenly remembered something, pulled Village Chief Zheng, and whispered.

"Dad, could it be the second girl from the Jiang family? Hasn't she been following Doctor Hu recently?"

Village Chief Zheng still shook his head, but he did not lower his voice. "No, the girl from the Jiang family has only been with Doctor Hu for a few days. How can she be considered to know medical skills? I'm afraid she can't even recognize all the words."

"The village chief was talking about a little girl? I wonder if there is a "Luo" in her name?" Bai Yi remembered that his master had given another clue.

Village Chief Zheng looked at Zheng Daqiang and asked, "What's the name of the second girl from the Jiang family?"

"Dad, I don't know either. How about I call the Jiang family over to ask?"

Bai Yi said, "How about this, you take me there and ask together to save trouble."

So the three of them walked towards Jiang's house again. Bai Yi saw that it was the eldest brother who had just led him to find the village chief, but he did not speak.

He just nodded to Jiang Runzhi and said to him, "Runzhi, what's your second daughter's name?"

Jiang Runzhi didn't know what the village chief was going to do, but he still told the truth. He couldn't lie. There were so many people in the village, and he would know the answer by just asking.

Jiang Runzhi also felt that there was no need to lie. "Village chief, the second girl's name is Jiang Ziluo. Why did you think of asking her name?"

Village Chief Zheng had a good impression of Jiang Runzhi and his wife who moved in later, so he did not hide the questions that Bai Yi asked him.

After listening to what Village Chief Zheng said, Jiang Runzhi became a little wary, and his attitude towards Bai Yi was no longer as enthusiastic as it was at the beginning.

Instead, he looked at Bai Yi with a hint of alienation, and asked, "What does this young man do? What does it mean to ask about a girl with the word Luo in her name?"

Bai Yi saw the change in Jiang Runzhi's attitude and realized that he had been a little rash just now. So he smiled and said.

"Brother, don't get me wrong. My last name is Bai. I was ordered to find a little girl who can heal wood and whose name contains the character Luo. A few days ago, this little girl saved a person in the mountains. I am here to express my gratitude."

Village Chief Zheng had not hidden his intention to visit Jiang Runzhi from anyone. Doctor Hu and the Jiang family were all there, and Jiang Runzhi was alert just now.

Others also became curious, and after hearing Bai Yi's explanation, they became even more defensive. Village Chief Zheng and Zheng Daqiang thought they were just asking around, but they didn't expect...

Zheng Daqiang said, "Mr. Bai, I think you have found the wrong person. There were a few adults who were participating in the martial arts competition at noon. We asked them and they said we didn't save anyone, let alone hide anyone."

"Yes, at noon, your people had already searched all our things. Why are you still looking for us?" Village Chief Zheng also hurriedly said.

Bai Yi cursed those people in his heart. He had to tell his master quickly. If the people behind the scenes knew that it was a little girl who saved the person,

I'm afraid that the whole family will die, but the problem at hand has to be solved. Bai Yi is a secret guard, and his job is to protect the master's safety.

This time the master came out in a hurry and didn't bring anyone with him, so he had to send himself out. But he rarely deals with people, and now he doesn't know how to deal with the situation?

"Village Chief, you misunderstood. I am not in the same group with them. I really came here to express my gratitude..."

Bai Yi kept explaining, and Jiang Ziluo showed a smile. Jiang Ziluo believed that this man named Bai was looking for him, and he was not in the same group with those people at noon.

Doctor Hu also heard something. He secretly glanced at Jiang Ziluo and saw the smile on Jiang Ziluo's lips.

Seeing this, Doctor Hu understood what was going on with the slight smell of blood he smelled on Jiang Ziluo a few days ago.

But he was even more confused. As far as he knew, none of the Jiang family's children could read, let alone know medical skills.

So what was the rescue all about? The Jiang family suddenly became rich, and I had been following the Jiang family because I wanted to know something about them.

Unexpectedly, I forgot about it. Bai Yi explained two or three times that he was not in the same group with those people. But Jiang Runzhi and the village chief no longer believed it.

They didn't want to go through the thrill of noon again, so they hurried Bai Yi away.

Bai Yi saw that there was no other choice but to move away from them, prepare to rest for a night and discuss it tomorrow.

Not long after Bai Yi walked away, he heard a voice, "Mr. Bai, there are many refugees ahead of us. Maybe the person you are looking for is among them."

"There are still many refugees ahead of you? Thank you for telling me." Bai Yi felt around his body and found nothing else, so he took out the silver ingot again.

Just now he wanted to give it to the village chief and others, but they said they didn’t want anything. Now he had to give it to this little girl!

"Little sister, take this. When you get to a place where you can buy things, buy yourself something delicious!"

Jiang Ziluo took it without hesitation and said with a smile, "Can you buy a lot? Is it enough for our family?"

Bai Yi also came from a poor family, and he felt uncomfortable seeing these refugees. Hearing Jiang Ziluo ask this question, he felt even more uncomfortable.

"Sure, it's getting dark, let's go back!"

Jiang Ziluo nodded, turned around and left. But after turning around, Jiang Ziluo's smile did not fall.
