"Hey, Xiao Xiao, these are some wild vegetables we just dug up at home. They are very fresh. I'll give you some to try."

Aunt Liu stuffed a handful of green wild vegetables into Lu Shi's arms without saying anything, and without waiting for her to refuse, she hurried back and disappeared in a moment.

Aunt Liu was so afraid that she would refuse. Lu Shi felt helpless, but there was nothing he could do.

The original owner was an orphan who grew up eating food from hundreds of families. The people in the village were honest and simple. Even though most people were poor in that era, the villagers would still give him something to eat.

Look, I sent her some wild vegetables again.

As winter approached, the temperature dropped and a cold wind blew. Lu Shi shivered, pulled his thin gown closer, and quickly went into the house.

Her body temperature gradually returned to normal, and Lu Shi let out a long sigh. She looked at the simple furnishings in the room and began to feel worried again.

Such a simple house, with no protection from wind or rain, I hope she won’t freeze to death this winter.

She thought about it and put on two more pieces of clothes. There was no other way because the original owner's clothes were too thin.

I start with a small shabby house. Do I have to pick up equipment from behind?

It's a pity that her divine power is of no use here, otherwise this world would not be able to bear it, and she would be in trouble if she was discovered.

The spiritual energy in this world is also thin, and it takes a long time to store up some spiritual power for use.

Alas, she sighed deeply.

The original owner was an orphan since childhood. When a disaster struck her hometown, she and her family fled to this village, settled down, built a house, and have lived here ever since.

But my parents suffered a lot when they were in trouble and their health was depleted. They passed away within half a year.

It is not easy for a woman to make a living in this world, so after some discussion, the villagers arranged for her to be married to a man, and she has been working as a boy ever since then.

Although the village was kind, it was also poor. The original owner had barely grown up and was still not strong enough to do heavy work, so he had to find another way.

In the early years, the imperial examinations were not very strict. The original owner had a talent for reading, so the village moved all the "stock" of deceased scholars to her.

As a result, the original owner successfully became the only juren in the village and won the top prize in the provincial examination. Not only was he exempted from corvee labor, he also received a fixed monthly salary and even had travel expenses to take the metropolitan examination.

With the original owner's talent and perseverance, it was certain that he would eventually be promoted to the seventh rank, and even the sixth rank was not impossible. (The starting point for a Jinshi official is the seventh rank county magistrate, and the top scholar is directly promoted to the sixth rank)

However, cheating in the imperial examinations became increasingly serious in those years, and the imperial court was furious and revised the examination system: before the examination, all candidates took off their clothes for a "naked inspection" to resolutely eliminate cheating.

When the news reached the original owner, she was packing her bags at home to prepare for the imperial examination. She was deeply shocked after hearing the news, fell seriously ill, and almost died.

A woman disguised as a man to take the imperial examination is guilty of deceiving the emperor and should be executed according to the law!

Although his life was saved, his already frail body was made even worse.

The original owner could earn some money by working as a teacher a few years ago, but now he can only sell calligraphy and paintings.

Some merchants would patronize her business because of her status as a juren, but the money she earned was not enough to cover the cost of her illness, not to mention that studying is a money-burning job.

Over time, the original owner began to have thoughts of committing suicide.

While she was still alive, she could not give back to her hometown, could not even support herself, and became a burden to the village.

However, the original owner did not have the chance to commit suicide and caught a cold due to the change of seasons, and passed away.

When Lu Shi first came, she had a splitting headache, a low fever, and her throat felt like it had swallowed a knife. The pain in her whole body would start to warn her if she moved even a little.

This feeling was a bit strange, she had never experienced it before, so she did not take any measures to save herself and lay in bed for most of the day.

During this period, the monkey system couldn't stand her half-dead appearance, so it reluctantly used its private money to buy her a box of cold medicine. However, Lu Shi showed no gratitude and said that the cold medicine made her throat sore and she couldn't eat it.

In order to prevent the newly signed host from going to hell, the Monkey System swallowed its anger.

Can you imagine a red-faced monkey frantically scratching its face and gnashing its teeth while boiling water?

Lu Shi: I dare not think about it, it’s so ugly.

Monkey System:......

System: Oh, which old fool said she never knew what it was like to be sick? Yo yo yo~

Old Immortal: ...

The conversation ends with the Monkey System being locked in a small dark room, and Lu Shi successfully drinks cold medicine to win.

"Qi Qi, take the master and retreat first!"

Qi Yi said, and quickly rushed into the enemy circle again.

There were only a few guards left on their side, and with the dozen or so secret guards, it wouldn't be difficult for them to deal with the hundred people on the opposite side.

However, seeing that the number of people on the opposite side is still increasing, and the reinforcements on our side have not arrived yet, I am afraid that they are also encountering difficulties. This is a bit tricky.

Thinking about his master's current physical condition, Qi Yi gritted his teeth secretly. Damn it, the man on the other side was going to kill him this time.

Qi Yi signaled Qi Qi to take his master away first, and they would hold back the enemy and then come back to meet up with them.

The metallic clashing sounds of weapons clashing in his ears gradually faded away, and Qi Jin could no longer hear any other sounds except the whistling wind. However, the alternating hot and cold pains in his body told him that this time the poison was more severe than before.

After a surge of blood and energy, Qi Jin finally couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and his vision gradually blurred...

"Squeak, squeak!" Kill the monkey, kill the monkey.

"You're quite comfortable with your current status."

The boy leaned lazily on the recliner, and the red-faced little monkey was held in his hands like a doll and kneaded hard.

"Oh, it's still a male monkey."

"squeak!"

Wuwu was still not clean after all, and two wide noodles flowed down the red-faced little monkey's face.

In this environment, Qi Jin, who was in a coma, felt like his head was about to explode.

presumptuous!

He wanted to scold the unreasonable servant as he did before, but when he opened his mouth, he felt his throat was hoarse. Qi Jin, who had lost his voice for a short time, could only cough lightly to clear his throat. After the ordeal, his confused mind became much clearer.

The noise Qi Jin made was not loud, but it was still clearly heard by several people in the yard.

A black shadow flashed into the house at a speed that was astonishing. The little monkey took the opportunity to bite Lu Shi's tiger mouth, successfully escaped from the clutches of the devil, and quickly slipped into the back mountain and disappeared.

"Master, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, but you," it seems that the situation is not good.

Putting aside Qi Qi's tattered black clothes, just looking at his bruised face you can tell that he is in a difficult situation now.

Qi Jin was stunned as he looked at his subordinates who were completely disfigured. Could it be that Qi Qi had fought with that group of people after he fell unconscious?

Of course, Qi Qi saw the confusion in his master's eyes. The situation was urgent at the time. In order to avoid being discovered by the enemy, he took his master to a more remote mountain road.

After finally walking out of the mountains and seeing a house, his first reaction was to control the owner of the house so that he could treat his injuries.

But as soon as he climbed over the wall and entered the yard, he was taught a lesson and was captured without any ability to resist.

When the man saw that he was wearing a nightgown and had his face covered, he punched him in the face, and even the monkey kicked him in the face a few times.

Qi Qi felt extremely sad when thinking about what had happened in the past few days. For the sake of his master, he gave all the private money he had hidden on him to that devil.

Not only that, the man gave him all the work in the house and yard, and he had been chopping wood and carrying water for two days.

Don't you see,

If his master doesn't wake up, he will die. He has worked for two days without any food. Even a guard dog wouldn't dare to do this.
