The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 810

"Songren, go take a look."

Song Ren then went inside, and Xu Tian followed him off the carriage and walked over.

Right across from them, a woman was hanging from a treetop, and below her lay a huge trap.

It looks like they're hunting wolves.

Xu Tian walked over, and Song Ren was somewhat at a loss, not knowing where to start.

If we really put that girl down, she might fall into a trap filled with sharpened bamboo shavings.

If a person falls down, they will definitely die.

Upon seeing Xu Tian arrive, Song Ren quickly went upstairs.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid I can't save this young lady by myself."

Xu Tian had already realized that Song Ren alone was not enough to save the person.

So he had someone find a long rope, which he then swung over and tied around the woman's body.

"Just cut the rope at the top of the tree."

Pine nuts soared into the air and landed instantly beside the tree trunk, then brought down a knife.

The woman's scream pierced my ears, but she had already fallen to the ground.

"You're alright now. May I ask what brings you to a place like this?"

Xu Tian released the woman from the cage, but found that she was covered in injuries.

He frowned and asked, "Where did all these injuries come from?"

He thought that the woman was still tied to the tree, so she shouldn't be injured so badly!

The woman, her eyes brimming with tears, said, "I went to the town to find my relatives. When I got here, I was chased by a wolf. I thought I couldn't keep running, but I never expected that I would be hung up like that."

"That wolf guarded the young woman here for a day and a night, and finally left, probably because it realized it couldn't catch me."

The girl spoke while crying, looking completely shaken.

Xu Tian's men brought herbs and applied them to the girl's face.

"If your injuries get infected, it will be bad. We need to go to town first and find a clinic to treat your injuries."

The girl's expression changed slightly when she heard Xu Tian's words.

She lowered her head slightly.

The first thing they did upon entering the town was to find a clinic and treat the girl's injuries.

"Fortunately, they are just superficial injuries, nothing serious," the doctor said to Xu Tian after examining him and applying medicine.

Xu Tian was relieved and prepared to leave.

As they were parting, he asked the young woman, "Young lady, didn't you say you came to town to find your relatives? I wonder where your relatives are?"

The girl paused for a moment.

"My name is Bai Qingcheng, but I don't remember the names of my relatives."

Finally, the girl told Xu Tian and the others that she hadn't been in contact with this relative for many years, and she could only remember the relative's name. Xu Tian also helped her search for him.

The woman stayed close to Xu Tian and the others.

Three days later.

"Qingcheng, that relative you mentioned, there used to be one in the county, but he died three years ago. So what about you now?"

When Bai Qingcheng heard the news, her brows furrowed slightly, and she looked very sad.

"I came here to find my relatives, but now that I know they are gone, I really don't know what to do with them."

A hint of sadness appeared on her face.

Then, he knelt down in front of Xu Tian's body.

"I hope you will take me in, sir. You saved my life. If you are willing, I would like to take you in and serve you like a slave. I am willing to stay by your side to repay your kindness."

Xu Tian initially wanted to refuse, but then he thought about how Bai Qingcheng had taken such good care of him these past few days, and he was deeply moved, so he agreed.
