My treasure bowl connects the past and present; I've won everything on my journey into exile.

Seeing her terrified expression, Lin Mo was speechless.

She was so brave just now, I thought she wasn't afraid!

Lin Mo reached out to check Qian Zhengchang's pulse and shook her head:

"He's still breathing, he's not dead."

She wanted to say, "He deserved to die."

But Xu Mengxian might be terrified, after all, she is still young and has little experience.

Not dead!

Xu Mengxian breathed a sigh of relief, then suddenly hugged Lin Mo tightly and burst into tears:

"Waaah, sister-in-law, that's scary."

"That was terrifying! I thought I was going to die, boohoo."

"Thank goodness, sister-in-law, you're here. I was so scared."

……

Lin Mo's body stiffened, "..."

She really wanted to slap him so hard he flew away.

Damn it, why are you hugging me? Do we even know each other?

Don't forget, you even teamed up with outsiders to smash my head. I still remember that grudge.

I can't bear it!

Lin Mo, disgusted, grabbed her hand and pulled her away.

"Sister-in-law!" Xu Mengxian looked at her pitifully, tears still clinging to her eyelashes.

Waaah.

She wanted a hug, but she was scared.

Lin Mo turned her head away:

"If you want your brother dead, then don't waste your time with me."

"Ahhh...Brother!"

Xu Mengxian snapped out of her daze, screamed, scrambled to her feet, and rushed toward the crevice in the rock.

She had completely forgotten about her seriously injured older brother.

Lin Mo glanced at Qian Zhengchang, whose face was covered in blood, before turning and walking towards Xu Wuyan and his sister.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that Xu Wuyan was seriously injured.

He had many wounds, and the blood flowing from the wounds soaked through the clothes around the wounds, making him look like a dead person.

Xu Mengxian used all her strength to help Xu Wuyan out of the crevice.

Her eyes were red as she looked at Lin Mo:

"Sister-in-law, my brother..."

"Don't talk," Lin Mo interrupted her, then squatted down to check.

She doesn't want to hear Xu Mengxian's voice at all right now.

Her voice gave me a headache.

It reminded me of my head, which had been cracked open.

Seeing that Xu Wuyan's wounds were still bleeding, Lin Mo frowned.

Xu Wuyan was seriously injured and could not wait until he returned to the post station to treat his wounds.

We need to stop the bleeding first.

Otherwise, if he continues to bleed, he might die.

He looked at Xu Mengxian and said, "Go get some firewood over there and start a fire, quick."

After giving the instructions, he didn't care whether Xu Mengxian did it or not, and then started taking things out continuously.

Wound medicine, gauze, and bandages.

After Lin Mo finished speaking, Xu Mengxian immediately rushed to the front to gather firewood.

After preparing everything, Lin Mo began to unbutton Xu Wuyan's clothes, preparing to apply medicine to his wounds.

When his clothes were undone, revealing his muscular upper body, Lin Mo blushed.

He awkwardly moved his head away.

"Xu Wuyan, I didn't mean to take advantage of you. I just wanted to bandage your wound. You, you mustn't overthink it."

After saying that, he looked away.

Seeing the curves and muscles of his strong upper body, one can't help but sigh that men and women are just different.

Look at those well-defined muscles and those attractive lines on his body, they're actually quite good-looking.

Are all men's bodies like this?

Lin Mo was a little curious.

But thinking of Shen Qingyun and the others' protruding bellies, Lin Mo pursed her lips.

She was wrong; it's not the same.

Xu Wuyan didn't have such an unsightly big belly; his abdominal muscles were muscular and defined.

Just now.

Xu Mengxian rushed back carrying firewood:

"Sister-in-law, I'm back."

Lin Mo blushed.

What was she doing just now?

She was actually staring at Xu Wuyan's body and letting her mind wander!

intolerable!

Lin Mo shook her head, took a deep breath to calm herself down, and then tossed Xu Mengxian a tinderbox so she could start a fire nearby.

She then began to bandage Xu Wuyan's wounds.

Time passes by unnoticed.

By the time she finished bandaging Xu Wuyan's wounds and dressed him again, it was already broad daylight.

"Sister-in-law," Xu Mengxian said somewhat shyly, her head lowered.

"I'm sorry for how I treated you before."

I even helped outsiders hurt you. I... I'm so sorry.

Lin Mo glanced at her:

"You think you can get my forgiveness with just an 'I'm sorry'? Aren't you overthinking it?"

After saying that, he looked up at the sky.

My heart sank. It was over; the time had passed.

Xu Mengxian, with her head down and eyes reddened, nodded. "I know."

"No time, let's go!"

Lin Mo wasn't in the mood to comfort her. She asked Lin Mo to help Xu Wuyan up, then carried Xu Wuyan on her back and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, Qian Zhengchang, whose head was covered in blood, stood up unsteadily.

His bloodshot eyes were staring at them menacingly, like a demon crawling out of hell.

"None of you are allowed to leave without my permission!"

Xu Mengxian picked up a stone from the ground and walked in front of Lin Mo:

“Sister-in-law, you’re carrying my brother away, I’ll stop him.”

Having learned from her previous experience, Xu Mengxian is no longer as afraid as before.

Lin Mo looked up and glanced at Xu Mengxian.

Dislike it.

Despite her trembling body from fear, she stood before herself, pretending to be strong.

Lin Mo shook her head:

"Qian Zhengchang, your enemies are not us."

"If you want to die, come at me, I'll grant your wish. You're nothing but a spent arrow; are you sure you're a match for me?"

After saying that, he reached out a hand, took the stone from Xu Mengxian's hand, and pulled hard.

The stone shattered into several pieces instantly!

Xu Mengxian stared wide-eyed, her face filled with disbelief.

Her sister-in-law, how could she have such strength?

Qian Zhengchang's face darkened. He had forgotten that this woman was incredibly strong.

Lin Mo's face was cold:

"see it?

"Qian Zhengchang, if I really wanted to kill you, it would be a piece of cake. If you want to die, then come and try."

Qian Zhengchang raised his knife again, saying, "So, you deserve to die even more."

After saying that, he raised the knife in his hand and walked towards Lin Mo and the others.

Xu Mengxian was nervous and picked up another stone to use as a weapon, preparing to make a move.

Lin Mo shook her head, looking at Qian Zhengchang with sympathy in her eyes:

"Qian Zhengchang, your wife and children are dead."

Don't you want to know who killed them?

Qian Zhengchang froze in mid-air, staring at Lin Mo with suspicion in his eyes:

"What did you say?"

How could his family members be dead?

My own family will take good care of them.

Thinking about this, Qian Zhengchang felt a headache coming on, and subconsciously told himself that the woman in front of him was lying to him.

Lin Mo shook her head. "You should send a letter home."

"Qian Zhengchang, you risked your life for her, but she had your entire family killed while you were leaving the capital."

"You're lying!" Qian Zhengchang stared at Lin Mo with a mixture of anger and uncertainty.

She was lying to herself.

Yes, she deliberately lied to herself.

He had worked for her faithfully, so how could she have killed his family?

"Do you think I'm lying to you?" Lin Mo shook her head, looking at him with sympathy.

"Qian Zhengchang, you're working for the Empress. She sent you to kill the people from the Anping Prince's mansion, isn't that right?"

The color drained from Qian Zhengchang's face instantly.

This is a very secret matter, only three people know about it, how did she know?

"How did you know?" Qian Zhengchang raised his knife and pointed it at Lin Mo:

"who are you?"

Lin Mo shook her head, "What do you care who I am?"

Qian Zhengchang, just know this: it's very easy for me to kill you.

I'm telling you who killed your wife and children for a simple reason: I want to see you fight amongst yourselves so I can reap the benefits. If you doubt me, you can confront Rong Momo, the Empress's maid. It was she who hired people to kill your wife and children.”

After saying that, he carried Xu Wuyan and left.

Xu Mengxian was nervous, holding the stone, and kept staring at Qian Zhengchang as she backed away.

Only after walking a distance and seeing that he hadn't moved did Xu Mengxian feel relieved.

She turned around and caught up with Lin Mo. Looking at Lin Mo, who was carrying her older brother on her back and walking briskly, she showed envy on her face.

This sister-in-law is very different.

"Instead of wasting time looking at me, you should hurry up and leave." Lin Mo gave her a disdainful look.

Not only did they walk very slowly, but they also kept looking around.

They are not afraid of falling.

Xu Mengxian's face showed an unnatural expression, "Okay!"

next second!

boom!

The sound of something heavy falling to the ground.

Hearing the sound, Lin Mo quickly turned around and saw Xu Mengxian lying on the ground. She couldn't help but twitch her lips.

She almost doubted whether she was a jinx.

Fortunately, she didn't say it.

Looking at Xu Mengxian who had fallen to the ground, Lin Mo took a deep breath:

"Xu Mengxian, get up."

We're out of time. If we waste any more time here, we'll be treated as fugitives.

"Xu Mengxian?"

Lin Mo then realized something was wrong.

He quickly put Xu Wuyan off his back and then went back to check on Xu Mengxian.

That's when they realized she had fainted.

He touched his forehead.

The scalding heat made Lin Mo want to curse.

damn it!

We are truly incompatible according to the Chinese zodiac; nothing good ever comes of us being together.

They were in a hurry, and she fainted, causing herself trouble.

Take a deep breath and calm your agitated heart.

He deftly took out pills and a water bag for treating colds from his spatial storage, and then roughly fed them to her.

"I owe you and your siblings."

Lin Mo cursed under her breath, packed her things away, picked her up with one hand, and walked towards Xu Wuyan who was standing to the side.

Looking at the two unconscious siblings, Lin Mo gritted her teeth.

"Never mind, I don't have time."

Lin Mo bent down, picked one up on each shoulder, and strode forward.
