Traveling through the Lotus Tower: Li Lianhua, you must live well
Chapter 20: Diversion & Explanation
After the messenger left, Shi Shui concealed his worries and asked Su Ci, "Miss Su, given Master Lin's current physical condition, can we speed up? I'm worried that something might happen if we delay too long on the road."
Su Ci thought for a moment and replied, "Let me check on Master Lin's condition first. If he is doing well, we can speed up appropriately."
At this time, Lin Wenxiu's voice came from the carriage: "Master Shi, don't worry about me. I'm fine and can hold on. Let's speed up."
Shi Shui: "Mr. Lin, don't worry. Those who came with us this time are all experts from the Si Gu Men, and they are enough to deal with those villains. You should wait until Miss Su has seen your wound before making a decision."
Su Ci got on the carriage and checked Lin Wenxiu's injuries. After confirming that there was no problem, he said to Shi Shui, "Master Shi, Mr. Lin's wound is fine. You can speed up a bit, but not too fast, otherwise if the bumps are too strong, his wound will still split."
Upon hearing this, Shi Shui nodded.
Liu Ming calmly analyzed: "Since there is an unknown force, we can't move forward blindly. Dean Shi, what are your plans?"
Shi Shui thought for a moment and said, "There are three roads from here to Sigumen. I will send three brothers to investigate the situation first. When they confirm which road is safe, they will go back to Sigumen from that road."
Liu Ming pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Shi Shui selected three brothers who were good at tracking to explore the way, and the others rested on the spot.
After about a cup of tea, the three explorers came back one after another.
What made people feel relieved was that there were no problems on all three roads. It seemed that the unknown forces were afraid and did not attack them.
Immediately, Shi Shui and Liu Ming discussed and decided to abandon the official road and take the nearest road to get back to Sigumen as soon as possible.
After discussion, the team adjusted their direction and sped up their pace.
—— —— —— —— —— ——
As night fell, the team stopped in a hidden valley.
After Shi Shui and others explored the terrain and confirmed it was safe, they decided to camp here and set off early tomorrow.
Everyone sat around the campfire and shared their food.
Lin Wenxiu was feeling unwell and in low spirits, so he ate his meal and changed his medicine and went to bed early.
Su Ci and Liu Tianer sat on one side, talking in low voices. Liu Tianer suddenly said, "Ah Ci, you know what? I feel a little uneasy. I always feel that this incident will change a lot of things."
Su Ci sighed and replied, "Maybe. This matter is indeed a bit strange."
Liu Ming came over and sneered at Liu Tianer, "If you want to care about other things, why not take care of yourself? Have you thought of a reason to escape punishment?"
After hearing this, Liu Tianer immediately hugged Liu Ming's arm, clamped her throat, and spoke softly and coquettishly:
"Brother, I know I was wrong. I came out to look for you because I was worried about you. Please don't be angry, okay?
Whenever I arrived in a town, I would stay at Liuji's and send someone to send a letter home to let my parents know that I was safe.
And I didn't go out alone, I was accompanied by the escorts from Weiyuan Escort Agency.
I originally planned to ask them to take me to Si Gu Men, but I changed my route when I found out that the Sect Master was in An Ning Town. I will go back to Si Gu Men with the Sect Master, so you are still worried?
I also prepared a lot of self-defense supplies, and I brought all the anesthetics you gave me. So, brother, I went out with sufficient preparation, not impulsive. "
After saying that, Liu Tianer blinked and looked at her brother expectantly.
After listening to his sister's explanation, Liu Ming knew that she was not acting on impulse and had really arranged her trip. He nodded with satisfaction in his heart.
But he didn't show it. He pushed Liu Tian'er away with a cold face and said disdainfully: "Sit down. How can you be so fidgety? Also, straighten your tongue and speak properly."
When Liu Tianer saw her brother like this, she knew that the matter was over. She didn't mind his cold face and immediately stuck close to him again, saying happily: "I know that my brother treats me best!"
Liu Ming patted her head helplessly: "You! Don't do this again next time. Do you know how worried your parents were when they knew you ran away alone?
I was almost scared to death by you. If I hadn't received the letter from the Sect Master and knew you were here, I would have set out to look for you."
Liu Tianer felt warm in her heart after hearing this. She nodded seriously and promised, "I understand, brother. I will never do such a thing again."
Then he pulled Su Ci over and solemnly introduced her to Liu Ming: "Brother, this is the good sister I met this time, Su Ci. Her medical skills are amazing."
Liu Tianer turned to Su Ci and said, "Ah Ci, this is my brother. If you have any problems, ask him for help."
Liu Ming was a little surprised when he saw his sister's serious look. Family members know their own affairs. Liu Tianer has been spoiled since she was a child. She has been spoiled to the point of being naive and ignorant. She is a heartless and naive girl.
Although she looks easy to deceive, her intuition is actually very accurate, making it impossible for those with bad intentions to get close to her.
She knows so many people, but this is the first time she has introduced a friend to her family so seriously.
Then he remembered how she had protected Liu Tianer before, and Liu Ming's favorability towards Su Ci increased a lot.
Liu Ming smiled and said to Su Ci gently, "Miss Su, please take care of my trouble-making sister."
Su Ci waved his hand and said, "Mr. Liu, you are too polite. Tian'er is sincere, lively and cute. I am very happy to be her friend."
After hearing this, Liu Ming's smile deepened: "Miss Su, if you don't mind, just call me brother like Tian'er did."
Su Ci: "Brother Liu. You can call me Ah Ci like Tian Er does. Or Xiao Ci is also fine, that's what my master calls me."
Liu Ming paused and said, "You call me Big Brother, so I am your elder. I will call you Xiao Ci."
Su Ci nodded, not caring how he called him.
The three chatted for a while, and Liu Ming said softly: "I'm going on patrol. You two, go to bed early and don't chat too late. We have to get up early tomorrow to travel."
The visitor nodded obediently.
After a while, Liu Tianer yawned and felt sleepy. She said good night to Su Ci and went to rest.
Su Ci poked the bonfire and after making sure it would not go out, he began to meditate beside it and practiced the Art of Flower Wandering.
In this way, they spent a peaceful night in the valley.
