With a "puff", the simple tool was inserted into the man's chest. Xu Qingqing stared at the man's face without blinking, not missing a single change.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Wang Dahu and He Anran, who were watching, couldn't help but hold their breath due to the atmosphere at the moment.

As time passed second by second, cold sweat kept appearing on Xu Qingqing's forehead and palms.

“Huh!~”

As the man took a deep breath, Xu Qingqing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Seeing that the man's expression had obviously slowed down, she kept pressing the simple airbag with her hands until the man resumed his spontaneous breathing.

"Huh..." Xu Qingqing sighed deeply, and knelt on the ground with a weak body: "You are also blessed with a good life, you should not die!"

She placed her hand on the man's arm and squeezed it, smiling and wishing him "Long life!"

Seeing Xu Qingqing's exhaustion, Xiao Yuheng took two steps at a time to hug Xu Qingqing in his arms and took out the handkerchief he had prepared, while He Anran looked shocked and said, "You stole my job?"

When someone hugged her from behind, Xu Qingqing naturally leaned into that person's arms, but she froze instantly.

!!!

Feeling the hardness behind her, which was different from her usual soft body, Xu Qingqing turned around suddenly.

"boom"

"Ouch, I'll go!"

The forehead and chin collided, and Xu Qingqing screamed in shock from the combined effects of pain and fear.

Xiao Yuheng's expression froze for a moment, then he took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the cold sweat from Xu Qingqing's forehead as if nothing had happened.

Looking at the eye-catching red on Xiao Yuheng's chin, Xu Qingqing hurriedly got up from Xiao Yuheng's arms and scratched her head a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry."

"Yeah. It's okay. I won't die from the impact." Xiao Yuheng's expression was extremely calm. If Wang Dahu hadn't had good eyesight and seen a flash of crystal in his eyes, he would have probably thought that he wasn't in pain.

"Ah?" Xu Qingqing felt that there was something wrong with her ears.

Xiao Yuheng slowly put away his handkerchief and looked at Xu Qingqing: "It's okay."

"Oh oh." Xu Qingqing scratched her ears, realizing that she must have heard it wrong.

He Anran stood aside, looking at Xu Qingqing, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Seeing that Li Bowen was still guarding the man, Xu Qingqing looked at him and said, "Let's carry him into the house first. We can't just let him lie here. It would be scary to see him in the middle of the night."

"Although he is out of danger for now, we still need to find a doctor to see him as soon as possible."

"Yes"

Li Bowen and Wang Dahu carefully carried the man into a room, put him down carefully, and covered him with a quilt.

hall

Xu Qingqing looked at Li Bowen: "Who was that man? Seeing how anxious you looked at that time, you must know him, right?"

Li Bowen didn't beat around the bush and quickly told everyone what he knew.

Listening to Li Bowen talking about the man's glorious deeds, Xu Qingqing's expression kept changing, with shock, sigh, regret, anger and other emotions flashing across her face one by one.

It turns out that the man's name is Lu Zhenting, and he is a well-known general of the Great Zhou Kingdom. He has fought for his country all his life, and has defended the northern border of the Great Zhou for decades.

Now he has become a wanted criminal for treason, and fainted on a mountain road with wounds all over his body. He was fortunately met by Li Bowen who was going up the mountain, and thus he was saved.

"Based on your understanding, do you think Lu Zhenting would collaborate with the enemy and commit treason?" Xu Qingqing frowned and asked Li Bowen.

Li Bowen's eyes were firm: "Definitely not! General Lu has devoted his whole life to the country and is upright and honest. He would never do such a thing as treason!"

"Yeah, that's right." Xu Qingqing nodded, her expression pointed: "Since you know all this, why doesn't the person on the dragon throne know it?"

"Is he really blind or is he just pretending to be deaf and dumb and going with the flow?" Xu Qingqing looked at the sky outside and couldn't help but sigh: "This day doesn't seem to be very clear."

Li Bowen seemed to have figured something out after hearing this. His face turned pale, his chest rose and fell violently, and he gritted his teeth and said, "These treacherous villains! This tyrant! They should all die miserably!"

Seeing Li Bowen so angry, Xu Qingqing was a little shocked: "You..."

Wang Dahu explained to Xu Qingqing, "Li Bowen was once accused of theft when he went out of the mountains. He was arrested and almost tortured into confessing. It was General Lu who happened to pass by and saved him. Since then, he has respected and loved General Lu, so he was a little emotional at this time."

Xu Qingqing nodded in understanding. Life-saving grace + young boy’s admiration = star halo.

"understand."

At this time, the person who was sent to find a doctor also came back with the doctor. Upon seeing the person, it turned out to be Li Xian, a villager from Anping Village.

[Wow, this Anping Village is really full of hidden talents...]

Xu Qingqing suppressed her thoughts and hurriedly took him to the room. "Please take a look at him."

"Yes, Sect Master." Li Xian took off the wooden box he was carrying and placed it on the bedside. He first observed Lu Zhenting's injuries, and then carefully checked the wound that Xu Qingqing had just received first aid.

Looking at the wound on Lu Zhenting's chest, shock flashed in his eyes. He restrained the urge to ask Xu Qingqing immediately and put his hand on Lu Zhenting's wrist.

"What happened?" Li Bowen couldn't help but asked anxiously when he saw Li Xian's expression becoming more serious.

Li Xian withdrew his hand with a serious expression: "Although this man has many external injuries, they are not fatal. At most, he will bleed a little more. But the internal injuries have affected his lungs and organs, and he has countless hidden injuries and a lot of old diseases. It is difficult to recover 100%!"

Xu Qingqing: "How much do you think you can recover?"

"Well... there's an 80% chance that I can help." Li Xian stroked his beard, looking like an expert.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you." Xu Qingqing stood up, stretched lazily and walked out: "It's getting late, everyone should go to bed early. We still have to discuss the development plan of Xiaoyao Sect tomorrow."

Li Xian paused while stroking his beard. [Eh, no, is it possible that the Sect Master is not curious about me at all? He just left like that?]

He hurriedly caught up with Xu Qingqing, smiling flatteringly: "Master, can you tell me how you saved that man?" Xu Qingqing stopped, looked at the young-looking and white-haired Li Xian in front of him, and said two words lightly: "Lucky."

After that, without waiting for Li Xian's reaction, she continued to walk out with He Anran. Of course, she was in a hurry to go back to sleep. It was getting late. If she didn't get enough rest, she wouldn't grow taller!

In this life, her goal is to break 170, instead of staying at 168 like in her previous life.

Xiao Yuheng was watching Xu Qingqing silently. He knew what she was thinking from her expression and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly.

The smile was fleeting and was not seen by others.

Li Xian, who was left there, was still a little confused: "Good luck?"

Early the next morning, Xu Qingqing called Liu Hanwen and others to a meeting in the hall to discuss the development plan of Xiaoyao Sect.

Looking at the plans that Xu Qingqing took out, Liu Hanwen and others didn't know how to describe the feelings in their hearts. They were probably shocked.
