Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?

Ji's mother packed all the things that Ji Chuan wanted to take away into the backpack and gave him some instructions. Ji Nuan took the initiative to help him carry the bag and asked to take him to the ox cart.

As they stepped out of the door, Ji Chuan smiled and jokingly said, "It's just a few steps away, and you still have to come all the way to send me off?"

Ji Nuan playfully responded, "Why? Can't it be that I just want to chat with Third Brother for a few more minutes?"

Ji Chuan chuckled, his eyes full of doting: "Of course, I'm just worried that you'll be busy."

"Hey, I've been really busy lately. I've been trying to make a few ready-made medicines according to the methods in the medical books, and I'm currently trying to sell them to Shopkeeper Song."

"I never thought that you could only collect herbs before, but now you can make medicine by yourself!" My sister is getting more and more powerful.

"Third brother, have you ever thought about starting your own business?"

"Why do you ask that?"

"Haha, I asked as soon as I thought of it." Ji Nuan said lightly.

"Of course I've thought about it, but I haven't saved enough money yet." Ji Chuan said frankly.

Ji Nuan walked in front, turned around and smiled brightly, "Then wait until my sister's patent medicine sells well, and help you save money."

"Okay, I'll be waiting then."

Ji Nuan hummed confidently: "Hmph, I won't let you wait too long!"

"Okay, the ox cart from the next village is in front, you can go back." Sure enough, an ox cart was slowly approaching on the road at the entrance of the village.

Ji Chuan sat firmly on the ox cart. Ji Nuan waved goodbye to him and turned back home after watching the ox cart go away.

Peach Blossom Creek.

Song Jinbai, who should have been recuperating in bed, was looking for an exit in the peach forest along the direction Ji Nuan came yesterday.

Three days had passed since he fell off the cliff, and there was no sign of rescue. This place was indeed an extremely secretive place, and he had no choice but to take the initiative to find a way out.

Finally, he reached the cliff where Ji Nuan had come down. Looking at the knife-like stone wall in front of him, with only a few short stone piles scattered around, it was almost impossible for him to climb up in his current condition.

Just as he was about to look away, a flash of white suddenly caught his attention.

It was the little white mink. It nimbly climbed the vines between the stone piles and swooped down at an astonishing speed.

He looked up, but the girl who had saved him was nowhere to be seen. He lowered his eyes and looked at the little white mink that was slowly walking towards him.

The little white mink stopped in front of him, tilted its furry little head, and looked at him curiously with its shiny black eyes, without any fear.

He stretched out his hand, picked up the little white mink with his broad palm and held it in his arms. The little white mink seemed to sense his kindness, not only did it not struggle, but instead made a series of "woooo" sounds towards him.

"Woo woo..." I could only see clearly when I got closer. How handsome this guy is!

Song Jinbai's pupils dilated for a moment, and he looked at the little white mink in disbelief. Did he understand what the little white mink said just now?

Song Jinbai asked tentatively, "Are you Jixiang?"

The little white mink nodded and secretly touched his face with the tip of its nose.

Song Jinbai tried again, "Jixiang, where is your master? Why did you come here by yourself?"

"Woo woo..." The little fairy is back home, I'm here to play with you.

Song Jinbai has confirmed that this white sable has become a spirit.

"Who is the little fairy?" Song Jinbai asked with raised eyebrows.

"Woo woo..." The little fairy is the warm little fairy!

The last time it secretly appeared beside the little fairy, a man named Third Brother called her that.

"Do you know where the little fairy's home is?" Song Jinbai wanted to confirm his location through the little white mink.

The little white mink climbed onto his shoulder and rubbed his face. "Woo woo... The fairy said she lived in Peach Blossom Village at the foot of the mountain.

Taohua Village... He had seen it in Kaiyun Prefecture and on maps. It was a small village near the south of Kaiyun Prefecture.

Song Jinbai relaxed. At least he knew where he was now.

When night fell and Ji Nuan came to the wooden house with dinner, Song Jinbai took the opportunity to ask her how to get out of the bottom of the cliff.

He stared at Ji Nuan, his tone filled with anxiety: "Besides the exit on the cliff, do you know of any other way to leave here?"

Hearing this, Ji Nuan shook her head slightly and replied, "As far as I know, there is indeed only one exit here. The cliff is steep and it is difficult for ordinary people to climb up." She looked at Song Jinbai's injured arm and said, "Your injury hasn't healed yet. It's probably not appropriate for you to go out now."

However, Song Jinbai seemed a little stubborn. He continued, "I know my injuries haven't healed yet, but I have something important to deal with. I have to leave here as soon as possible." After that, he looked at Ji Nuan again, his eyes flashing with anticipation, "Miss, is there any way you can help me?"

Ji Nuan looked at Song Jinbai's determined eyes, she raised her eyebrows slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, "I'll take you out!" She said it lightly, as if taking someone upstairs was an easy thing.

Song Jinbai was stunned for a moment. Even for him, before he got injured, going up there alone would have required extreme Qinggong skills. Moreover, Ji Nuan wanted to bring someone like him who was injured, which was undoubtedly even more difficult.

He looked up at Ji Nuan and asked, "Girl, this is too dangerous. Your strength is not enough to support both of us. I am anxious to get out, but I cannot ignore your safety."

Ji Nuan smiled slightly, her eyes gleaming with confidence. She said softly, "Don't worry, I have my own way."

Song Jinbai stared at Ji Nuan's determined smile, put aside his previous concerns, and did not refuse again.

The next day, after Ji Nuan changed Song Jinbai's dressing, she took him to the cliff and whispered, "Are you ready? If you are, please close your eyes until I tell you to open them. Don't peek."

"Don't worry, since you are helping me like this, I will never peek." After Song Jinbai said this, he closed his eyes tightly.

Ji Nuan wrapped one arm around his waist, tapped her toes, and leaped lightly into the air. With her other hand, she quickly swung out a vine, which precisely wrapped around the stone pillar above. Using her supernatural power to control the vines, she leaped several times before nimbly reaching the cliff entrance.

It was the first time Song Jinbai had been so close to a woman. His muscles tensed, and sweat formed on his palms. With his eyes closed, the only sounds he could hear were the wind in his ears and the touch of Ji Nuan's hair brushing against his cheek.

It wasn't until his feet touched the ground again and he heard the clear voice of "Open your eyes" that he suddenly realized he was far away from the bottom of the cliff and in a deep cave. Looking down at the cliff bottom, he saw only a hazy pink mist, blurring everything. At this moment, Song Jinbai had a new understanding of Ji Nuan's strength.

"Please follow me." Ji Nuan led the way, passing through several winding bends until they arrived at the stone door at the entrance of the cave. She gently touched the mechanism, and the stone door burst open.

The moment he stepped out of the stone gate, Song Jinbai felt as if he was in another world and felt the breath of the world again.

"There are wild beasts in the forest, and you're still injured. I'll get you out of here." Ji Nuan walked ahead, her tone firm. She had finally saved the person, and she couldn't let the wild beasts in the mountains kill him.

"Thank you!" Song Jinbai's heart was full of gratitude. He felt that no matter how many "thank yous" he said, it would not be enough to express his gratitude to Ji Nuan for her many helps.

"Young master, you're welcome."

"Thank you for taking care of me for many days, but I still haven't asked for your name." Song Jinbai asked sincerely, hoping to know the name of his savior and find a chance to repay him.

"My last name is Ji," Ji Nuan replied. After we leave, we'll be strangers, and we might never meet again.

Song Jinbai, combined with Little White Marten's words, already knew her name. Seeing that she had no intention of talking further, he stopped asking questions and said sincerely, "Miss Ji, you saved my life, and I owe you something in return. What do you want?"

Ji Nuan smiled slightly, her tone relaxed: "No need. If you really want to repay me, when you have money, just give me two taels for medical treatment." Her words revealed a kind of free and easy and indifferent attitude, and it was obvious that she did not take the life-saving grace too seriously.

Facing Ji Nuan's calmness and carefree attitude, Song Jinbai felt even more upset. Such kindness could not be measured by money, nor could it be repaid with a simple consultation fee.

When the two of them walked out of the forest, Ji Nuan pointed to the road below and said, "Follow this road for an hour and you will reach Kaiyun Prefecture City."

After hearing this, Song Jinbai was about to leave. Apart from saying "thank you" to her, he had not given anything in return. He became even more determined to repay Ji Nuan.

He pulled a jade pendant from his lapel. It was as smooth as jade, exquisitely carved. It was a personal item he had worn since childhood. He solemnly handed it to Ji Nuan and said sincerely, "Miss Ji, this is a jade pendant I always carry with me. It's not priceless, but it represents my status. Please accept it!"

"This thing is too valuable, I can't accept it." Ji Nuan waved her hand and refused. It's not that the item is valuable and can't be accepted, but that you can't accept something close to your body.

Seeing that she was determined not to accept it, Song Jinbai felt a little annoyed: "Could it be more valuable than my life?" He could only say, "How can saving my life be worth two taels of silver? If you encounter any difficult problems in the future, you can come to the Kaiyun Mansion to find me."

Ji Nuan said to herself: I hope that day will never come.

"I've remembered it. When you go back, cherish your life. It will be your repayment to me." Ji Nuan said with a smile.

"I'll be leaving now. Take care, young lady!" Song Jinbai bowed to her.

Ji Nuan's smile was as bright as the sun: "You too!"

Song Jinbai turned to leave, but a wave of emotion he didn't understand welled up in his heart, causing him to pause involuntarily. Finally, he turned and left.
