It was already approaching the New Year's Eve when the group left Qing'an County, and it looked like they were going to celebrate the New Year on the road, so Xiao Xixi had someone buy a lot of things to take with them on the road.
Gu Xian was not idle during this period. He took advantage of Leng Moran to solve the case and opened a teahouse in Qing'an County as quickly as possible, of course with Xiao Xixi's financial support.
After all, he doesn't have any money, right?
Therefore, Gu Xian did not leave with them for the time being, but stayed in Qing'an County and waited for the teahouse to operate smoothly before going to the next place.
Xiao Xixi very generously said that she would drive wherever it was suitable and money was not an issue.
Gu Xian happily agreed, thinking that his cousin was his boss and would provide him with money to do business, so he was very attentive in doing things.
At noon, we walked to the wilderness and stopped to make lunch.
Xiao Xixi prepared a sumptuous meal, giving each guard a bowl of chicken soup to warm themselves up, a few pieces of freshly roasted chicken, and the vegetable pancakes and boiled eggs that had been prepared before departure. Everyone was very satisfied with the meal.
Xiao Xixi did not cook for Leng Moran alone. Everyone ate the same food, just to finish eating early and continue on the road. It was not safe to stay in the countryside for too long.
However, even for such a short stay, there is still danger approaching.
Leng Moran was the first to notice something was wrong around him and signaled the guards to be alert. Everyone seemed to be still eating, but in fact they were already paying attention to their surroundings.
Xiao Xixi thought of the remnants of the former dynasty who were sent to the capital, and couldn't help but wonder if these people had any accomplices?
Sure enough, suddenly there was a hail of arrows coming from the calm surroundings. Fortunately, everyone was on guard, so they were not hurt.
Soon, a group of men in black rushed over and fought with the guards.
Leng Moran pulled Xiao Xixi behind him and looked warily at the man in black who was rushing towards him, while Feng Yan protected the two of them from the front.
Xiao Xixi couldn't help but take a breath as she watched the men in black attacking people's vital points.
At her level, even with a systematic increase in force value, she is no match for these people.
What's more, after they left Qing'an County, the system had turned off automatic renewal.
She is now completely bare-handed.
Xiao Xixi poked at the system at the critical moment, "Tongzi, give me a promotion."
[It’s useless, these people’s martial arts level is very high, and the host plus improvement is no match for them]
As expected, Xiao Xixi's heart dropped, but she still refused to give up, "Is it better to improve it than nothing? If I die, I won't be able to complete the mission."
The system didn't respond for a long time, as if it was stuck. Just when Xiao Xixi thought that a certain system had crashed, it suddenly made a loud mechanical beep.
[Warning, warning! Please pay attention to the position behind Leng Moran on the right side. There are archers. Please protect Leng Moran’s safety]
Xiao Xixi was speechless about the system, "Can I protect Leng Moran? You really think highly of me!"
At this moment, she was still being protected by Leng Moran. After hearing this, she could only pull Leng Moran to avoid the arrows shot from behind.
Leng Moran's eyes darkened when he saw the arrow passing by.
The two of them were protected by Feng Yan, and Leng Moran pulled Xiao Xixi from time to time to ensure that she was within a safe range.
Xiao Xixi was a little dizzy as she was being pulled back and forth, so she had to stay awake as much as possible to communicate with the system, "Hurry up, something will really go wrong if you keep grinding."
[Congratulations to the host reinforcements who have arrived nearby. Please hold on to this round of offensive and you will be safe!]
Before Xiao Xixi could answer, the system sounded a mechanical sound again.
[Oops, they are going to shoot poisonous arrows, please host to block the arrows for Leng Moran!!!]
It can be seen that the system is really anxious and even forgot to release the task.
Xiao Xixi did not go to block the arrow, but looked seriously in the direction the system said, "Where is the arrow?"
The system seemed to have calmed down and released the task quickly, but the speaking speed was much faster than usual.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for dropping a random mission. The mission goal is to block Leng Moran’s arrow. Please work hard to complete the mission. Upon completion of the mission, you will be rewarded with 1,000 points]
Xiao Xixi's eyes lit up, but she still had concerns, "I won't die, right?"
[No, no, the system will ensure that the host's life is safe, please protect the host quickly in front of Leng Moran!!!]
Xiao Xixi felt the system's anxiety. It seemed that Leng Moran was really important to the system. Thinking of the system mall, Xiao Xixi gritted her teeth and stomped her feet to protect Leng Moran, and an arrow pierced straight into the back of her heart.
The tearing sound of piercing the flesh was transmitted to the brain along with the pain. All Xiao Xixi could think about at that time was that she was so anxious to block the arrow that she forgot to ask the system for a pain reliever.
Even if she won't die, she will still be in pain.
Fortunately, she will soon pass out from the pain, let's wait until she wakes up...
Before she fainted, she vaguely saw Leng Moran holding her in his arms and effortlessly killing two men in black who were rushing towards him.
A master of martial arts? No wonder the martial arts value is 99. It turns out that the system is not mocking her, but Leng Moran is really good.
Inexplicably, I felt like I had blocked the arrow too early.
Xiao Xixi felt very tired and had no energy to continue thinking, so she quickly closed her eyes.
The whole body fell into silence.
The consciousness seems to be withdrawn to another time and space, or perhaps - dreaming.
The scene in front of her was the orphanage where she grew up, and she seemed to be a child again.
She walked in the orphanage with short legs. She called the director, grandma, but no one responded. The surroundings were so empty that it was scary.
And she was like a child, crying because she couldn't see anyone.
At this moment, a little brother appeared.
The little brother's smile was very warm. Although she couldn't see his face clearly, she could feel his tenderness.
The little brother stretched out his hand and placed two candies firmly in his palm, "Cherish it and don't be afraid, and you won't feel sad about eating candies."
She hesitantly took the candy from her little brother, removed the sugar coating and put it in her mouth. The sweet taste filled her teeth, instantly soothing her sadness.
At the same time, she seemed to feel her body growing rapidly. She looked down at herself in shock, getting higher and higher...
When he looked up again, the little brother in front of him was gone.
What she eats is not candy, it’s like the mushrooms in Super Mario.
"Xixi——"
A gentle voice came into her ears, and she listened and saw Leng Moran looking at her with a smile.
The smile is as comfortable as the spring breeze, but Leng Moran is wearing modern clothes.
Moreover, he called her Xixi.
No, how could Leng Moran know that her name was Xixi?
Before she could think about it, she lost consciousness again.
I don't know how long it took, but Xiao Xixi heard someone sobbing beside her.
She slowly opened her eyes and saw Ji Yue crying in front of her bed.
Xiao Xixi raised her hand and gently stroked Jiyue's head. The voice she made was hoarse and unpleasant that she had not expected, "Stop crying."
With tears on Jiyue's face, she felt Xiao Xixi touching her head. Jiyue quickly raised her head and looked at her, shouting in surprise: "Miss, you're awake! Get someone to call Dr. He!"
There was a little girl in the house who immediately took the order and left.
Before Xiao Xixi could completely clear her thoughts, Jiyue threw herself on her in surprise and cried, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu My lady finally woke up."
With such a pounce, Xiao Xixi suddenly felt a pain in her back and couldn't help but take a breath.
