Looking for you in reincarnation

Si He looked at the corpses and frowned slightly. The fishy smell in the air made her feel a little nauseous.

The world is really in chaos. Even this remote mountain village can be massacred by bandits.

At this time, voices were heard at the entrance of the village. Is there anyone there?

Ning Ji pulled the reins and the horse stopped moving forward. He turned his head to look towards the village entrance, and Si He also pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

Judging from the voices, there were both men and women, but not many. Judging from the movements, they were probably not bandits.

After all, everyone in this village has been dead for a day or two, so there is no need for those bandits to come back.

At this time, those people suddenly walked towards the village. Ning Ji turned his horse around and walked from the side.

However, this small mountain village was too small, and the tall horses carrying people, who had sharp eyes and ears, soon discovered Ning Ji and Si He.

Si He knew her situation and quickly pulled down the cloth on her head, covering most of her face.

Those people turned out to be disciples of the Hongyun Sect.

Now that the Hongyun Sect has been closed down and destroyed by the government, these people actually escaped and hid here.

"Ning Ji, Si He!"

Those people recognized the two men at a glance. After all, wanted posters were posted everywhere and the portraits looked quite similar.

Ning Ji felt relieved when he saw that they were from the Hongyun Sect, because anyone could go and inform on them to get the reward, but they wouldn't.

The ones who hate the government the most now are these disciples of the immortal sects who were sealed off and their families exterminated.

Moreover, they are now like dogs that have lost their homes, and they don’t even have time to hide from the government.

Ning Ji ignored them, turned his horse around and walked slowly. It was getting late and there were not many people in the village, so it was a good opportunity to find a place to rest.

The people from the Hongyun Sect felt a bit complicated when they saw Ning Ji and the other two walking past them. Before the incident happened in the sect, they had followed them out to find out about the two people and also wanted to collect the high bounty.

Now that they have really seen these two people, they don’t want to collect the reward. They are both wanted by the government.

After Ning Ji walked around the small village, he found a yard where no one was dead, brought Si He in, and tied the horse in the yard.

Coincidentally, the people from the Hongyun Sect settled in the courtyard next door.

Both yards are quite large and the houses are new. There are several corpses not far in front of the yard. It is estimated that the owners of the houses wanted to escape but died outside.

Ning Ji was about to take Si He into the house when people from the Hongyun Sect came over.

"Brother, please stay."

Ning Ji turned around and looked at the man in the lead.

"There are wanted posters for both of you out there right now. I'm sure you're all troubled. Meanwhile, our Red Cloud Sect has been slandered by the government, brutally exterminated, and had its property confiscated. We're all in similar situations. Are you interested in working together to clear our names?"

In fact, they would not have wanted to look for him if they had not had to, but now there are not many people left in the Hongyun Sect, and they need more help.

"Not interested." Ning Ji said, then carried Si He into the main house.

Several people from the Hongyun Sect stood in the courtyard, looking at Ning Ji's back, with anger and helplessness on their faces. In the end, they left.

After Ning Ji carried Si He into the room, he put her on a chair and made the bed first.

Si He then took off the cloth on her head and looked around the room. Mo Mo also came out from her sleeve and looked around.

The owner of this house seems to be from a decent family, and the furnishings in the house are quite exquisite. He must be a wealthy family in this mountain village.

But the things were in a mess, having been turned upside down by the bandits. All the valuables were taken away, leaving only some large items that were difficult to move.

Ning Ji took a long time to tidy up everything.

Seeing that Momo was still clinging to her, he said to it, "Momo, go out and guard it."

It stuck out its tongue at him, and after a while, it slid down to the ground and crawled out the door.

Si He smiled faintly. During this period of time, it had gradually become familiar with Ning Ji.

Ning Ji carried her to the bed and said to her, "I'll go boil some water and get some food. You rest for a while."

"Okay." Si He was also very tired at this moment.

After he laid her on the bed, she closed her eyes, her face pale and exhausted.

He gently stroked her head and left the room after she fell asleep.

At this time, the sky was getting darker and darker, with dark clouds covering the horizon. The wind was also quite strong, making the trees in the mountains rustle.

Ning Ji glanced around the yard, but didn't see Mo Mo. He also knew whether he was hiding in some corner or in the grass outside the yard.

He ignored it, turned around and walked to the well in the yard, picked up a bucket of water, and then went into the kitchen.

After a long time, Ning Ji heard a slight movement in the yard. He came out to take a look. When he saw the scene in the yard, he couldn't help but be surprised.

Dozens of small snakes were lingering in front of the door and in the yard, some colorful, some green, and some black, and Momo was in the middle of the door, like the little leader of the snake group.

It's now more powerful than ever, and can even summon nearby snakes to guard the gate?!

If an uninformed person saw this, they would think they had disturbed a snake's nest!

There were also some small snakes scurrying around in front of the kitchen door.

Mo Mo hissed a few times, and the little snakes quickly made way for Ning Ji!

This little thing... is really surprising.

"Well done." He praised it generously, and it immediately stuck out its tongue, as if responding to him happily.

"Take good care of it."

After saying that, he turned and went back to the kitchen.

By the time he had finished boiling the medicine, it was already late and a heavy rain was about to come.

He took the medicine pot and walked quickly towards the main house.

At this time, the room was dim. He put down his things, lit the oil lamp, and then walked to the bed to check on her condition.

Now, she is becoming more and more alert, even in her sleep.

As soon as he walked to the bed, she opened her eyes and relaxed when she saw it was him. "Cousin~"

He sat down on the bed and looked at her red eyes. He felt a little complicated. While helping her up, he asked her, "Do you want to eat?"

She said, “I want some water.”

After helping her sit down, he went to pour her a glass of water. At this time, it started to rain heavily outside.

Si He turned her head to look at the window. It was already so dark?

Ning Ji brought some water and fed her a few sips.

At this time, she was becoming more and more tired, but her mind was still clear. After drinking some water, she leaned weakly on him. Thinking back to the reason why she recovered yesterday, she felt quite complicated.

She was not a fool. She hadn't figured it out before, and Ning Ji hadn't said anything, but after she thought about it carefully, she understood the reason.

Since the medicine hasn't been changed, the reason she was able to recover is most likely due to what happened that night...

This is ridiculous.

"Cousin~"

"Yeah." He responded, put the cup of water on the coffee table next to him, then looked down at her and pushed her fallen hair behind her ears.
