"Dad, are you feeling better?"

Seeing Guo Mo slowly finishing his work, his forehead was already covered with sweat. Huang Rong wiped it off one by one with distress.

But "Dongxie" Huang Yaoshi still closed his eyes tightly and showed no sign of waking up.

"Rong'er, don't worry. My father-in-law must have taken the opportunity to enter cultivation. Let's go out first. Maybe when he wakes up, we will have unexpected gains."

Guo Mo slowly got down from the bed and performed the exercises for a full twelve hours before the poison of "Shixiang Ruanjin Powder" was completely eliminated from Huang Yaoshi's body.

This was the first time Guo Mo encountered a poison of this nature. It was very strange, and at least it was more difficult to deal with than he imagined. Fortunately, his current "innate true energy" was enough.

"Boy, how is Uncle Huang Shi?"

Guo Mo and Huang Rong had just come out of Huang Yaoshi's room when they met Boss Jin from the "Dragon Gate Inn" and asked with concern on their faces.

When Huang Yaoshi was young, he traveled to famous mountains and rivers, especially after studying in the Deaf and Mute Valley of "Leigu Mountain", his footprints were all over the ancient villages in southern Xinjiang and the desert in the north of the Great Wall.

More than twenty years ago, I also spent more than half a year in Xixia.

When traveling in Xixia, of course you cannot miss Xingqing Mansion, the capital of Xixia. Huang Yaoshi also followed the caravan into the desert and settled in the "Longmen Inn".

At that time, the "Longmen Inn" was run by the current female boss's father, whose name was Jinchang.

Although Jinchang was born as a merchant, he loved martial arts since he was a child. Through the "Longmen Inn", he made friends with many people in the world, but unfortunately most of them were ordinary people.

Over time, he learned a punch from the East and a kick from the West. Jinchang gradually became a famous figure in the northwest area, known as "Wuyingke".

Because Jinchang was born thin, and his other kung fu skills were almost useless, but he had a unique talent for Qing Kung Fu.

I remember that it was much colder than previous years in the northwest. On a snowy day, a camel caravan came from it and was going to Xingqing Mansion.

This camel team was somewhat miserable. Due to the heavy wind and snow, they lost their way in the desert. They took a detour and walked five days longer than normal.

The food and water in the camel caravan have long been exhausted. When life is threatened, naturally any ugly thing may happen.

In the large camel team of more than fifty people, killing broke out inside, just for a bite to eat.

It is said that "people die for money and birds die for food", but I didn't expect that "people die for food" is also happening here.

In the end, only eighteen people were able to reach the "Longmen Inn".

Among them was a middle-aged woman in her thirties, carrying a little girl less than one year old.

Even though this is a woman, she is also a ruthless murderer. She has a lancet in her hand and keeps strangers away.

Originally, I joined this camel caravan to avoid my enemies. I wanted to hide in Xingqing Mansion for three to five years, but unexpectedly I encountered this unexpected disaster.

In the conflicts that broke out before, nothing happened to this woman. Unfortunately, being beautiful may be a kind of original sin.

The killings caused by hunger also aroused people's deepest desires.

For example, this woman's beauty and even the baby in her arms have become delicacies in the eyes of others.

This woman faced seven or eight "hungry disciples" by herself, and had to protect the child in her arms. In the end, she tried her best to kill those "hungry disciples" one by one.

Unfortunately, she had been without food and water for two days, and had to feed her child. Even a skilled martial artist was stabbed three times in the process of killing the "hungry disciples".

I held on until I arrived at the "Dragon Gate Inn" and fell to the ground.

Others can ignore her, after all, we are not relatives, especially since we have witnessed her "violence" with our own eyes before.

However, Jinchang cannot.

Everyone who came was a guest, and they fell into his own "Dragon Gate Inn". If he didn't save him, maybe this business would be over.

Besides, the other party is an orphan and a widower. How can the hot-blooded Jinchang just stand by and watch.

He asked the waiter to take the woman into the guest room, and there was no need to find a doctor here. Jinchang had no choice but to rely on his "knowledge" to treat the woman's injuries himself.

Those "hungry gangsters" were quite ruthless. They were stabbed twice in the back and once in the left leg. The most serious injury was in the left leg.

The artery was severed, the blood flow continued, and there was no time or conditions to deal with it in time. If it hadn't been for the cold weather, the entire leg would have been destroyed.

Even so, due to excessive blood loss, the woman remained in a coma and her fever persisted.

Naturally, the camel team came out to do business. Even though so many people died before, this was not a bad thing for those who survived.

At least, the goods left behind by those people must be divided among those who are still alive. This is considered an unwritten rule in the industry.

Naturally, the camel team will not stay at the "Longmen Inn" for a long time.

Early the next morning, after eating and drinking, and replenishing the necessary food and water for the road, everyone left for Xingqing Mansion happily with more goods than before departure.

The woman and the child naturally stayed, and no one would take a second look at them. Or in their minds, the mother and daughter were no different from those who died a few days ago.

When you come out to make a living, opportunities and dangers coexist, and surviving is the most important thing.

As for kindness, love, etc., after drinking two more bowls of wine, maybe you can pay attention to it occasionally.

Seven days passed before the woman regained consciousness.

Jinchang didn't treat her injuries either, not because he was cruel, but because he didn't know how to do it and didn't have the conditions.

She just cleaned the wound carefully and wrapped a piece of cloth around her left leg, which was still bleeding. The fact that she was able to wake up was all due to the woman's good fortune.

As for the "embarrassment" when cleaning wounds and changing clothes, who cares?

After all, in this huge "Longmen Inn", apart from this unconscious woman and the little girl she brought, there are all the big men.

Instead of asking a clumsy waiter or chef to come, Jinchang would do it himself.

The little girl recovered a few days ago. Although there was no way to feed her breast milk, fortunately, Jinchang also raised more than a dozen sheep in the backyard of the "Longmen Inn".

The little girl was lucky because a ewe had just given birth to a lamb and could provide the little girl with several bowls of fresh goat's milk every day.

However, I don't know if the little girl is born like this or she was frozen in the snow a few days ago. She is always chilly and coughs a few times from time to time, but she can't cough up anything.

"you're awake?"

Jinchang came in with a bowl of hot goat's milk. This simply heated "original flavor" was a bit irritating no matter how far away it was.

"Where is this? Who are you? Where is my child?"

The woman who had just woken up had no strength at all, and her whole body still ached.

"Girl, you don't need to be afraid. This is the 'Longmen Inn'. I'm the manager of the 'Longmen Inn'. My name is Jinchang. The child is fine. He just drank the goat's milk and has fallen asleep."

Jinchang saw the panic in the woman's eyes and tried to keep his voice calm.

"Girl, you've been in a coma for seven days and nights, and you've lost too much blood. Drink some hot goat's milk first to replenish your strength."

Knowing that the woman was weak, Jinchang had no choice but to step forward and help her sit up, adding a quilt to her back to lean on.

"Thank you——"

The woman was also overly hungry and thirsty. As Jinchang slowly tilted the bowl in his hand, she drank a bowl of goat's milk, and a slight blush appeared on her face.

Only then did the woman realize that her clothes had been changed inside and out, and she was still wearing a man's clothes.

Jinchang also noticed something strange about the woman.

"Girl, you were stabbed three times that day. You were covered in blood, and your clothes were torn and soaked."

"In order to save you, I had to clean your wounds and change your clothes. I hope you will forgive me for being rude."

When the person woke up, he was so beautiful that Jinchang couldn't help but feel moved when he saw her.

The two of them were very embarrassed when they mentioned this matter, but Jinchang himself was a little confused as to why he couldn't remember the scene now.

"Brother Jin, there is no need to blame yourself. You just wanted to save me. Can you bring the child over?"

Things had already happened, and the other party was really trying to save his own life. No matter what the woman did, it would not help, so she simply changed the subject.

Jinchang felt relieved when he saw that the woman was no longer entangled in the matter.

He went to the next room in person, picked up the sleeping little girl, and gently placed her on the woman's bed.

The little girl was still asleep, but she seemed to smell her mother's scent. In her sleep, she stretched out her two little hands and felt for her mother's body.

Just holding her like that made me sleep even more soundly.

"Thank you, Brother Jin, for saving me and the child. I want to sleep a little longer——"

Jinchang understood the meaning. The woman wanted him to go out first.

"Well, you have a rest first, and if you need anything, call someone loudly. Even if I am busy, there will be a man waiting outside the door."

Jinchang took the empty bowl away and gently closed the door.

"Poor child, I'm afraid my mother won't be able to accompany you -"

The woman looked at her sleeping daughter next to her and shed tears.

She woke up from her coma, but she knew better that her injuries were completely hopeless.

She had suffered serious internal injuries to begin with, which had not yet healed, and now the injuries were getting worse.

Even the woman can clearly feel that the vitality in her body is slowly draining away.

Unable to move, I leaned against the quilt and looked at the room carefully.

It was just an ordinary guest room with simple furnishings, but to my surprise, I saw that my package was placed on the bedside, with her lancet next to it.

"Hey, Brother Jin is really an honest man. He hasn't even looked through my package. At least there are a few sets of changes of clothes in it."
