The rumored ghost mountain is already nightfall. The dark starry sky, dense woods, and howling wind make it look even more eerie and strange in this empty mountain.
Ji Ruyan and his party drove a carriage into Fengming Mountain and had just entered the pass of Fengming Mountain.
Doctor Li then ordered the coachman to stop the carriage, got out of the carriage with Feng Ruxue in his arms, and asked the coachman to go back home first.
Ji Ruyan knew that what Dr. Li did was just because he didn't want to violate the taboo of that weird old man, so as not to anger the weird old man. The consequences of anger would be more than worth the gain if the weird old man refused to treat his sister.
Here we go.
"Ruyan, be careful where you step, don't fall."
Doctor Li looked forward and ordered Ji Ruyan behind him.
Ji Ruyan's childish voice sounded at the right time, "Doctor Li, you don't have to worry about me, you should find the old gentleman first."
There was a faint light on in the simple thatched house not far away.
Just this faint light made Dr. Li feel determined.
"Don't worry, there's still light in that room, uncle, he will definitely still be there."
"That's great, Doctor Li, let's go faster."
"Okay, follow me."
"Don't worry, I will keep up."
One big and one small quickly approached the thatched cottage.
When we were about to walk into the thatched cottage three meters away, a stern voice came from inside the house: "Who is here! How dare you trespass on my territory?"
"Uncle, it's me!"
Doctor Li hurriedly explained that others did not know the master's abilities, but he did.
In particular, this uncle is even more unpredictable. He always likes to play with the world, coming and going without a trace.
"Little plum?"
The strange old man was puzzled and walked out of the house, "Why did you come to my thatched cottage in the mountains when you didn't stay at home at night?"
"Uncle, the baby in my arms has fetal poison, please save her!"
Doctor Li quickly handed the baby in his arms to him.
The strange old man frowned and reprimanded seriously: "Little Plum, you should know my taboos. Why are you so reckless tonight?"
"Uncle...I..."
Doctor Li saw his unhappy expression and wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to speak.
Feng Tianyou was kind to him, and he wanted to repay the kindness, but he asked his uncle to help him. This was unreasonable.
Just when he was in trouble, Ji Ruyan spoke at this moment, his voice very cold and stern, "Do you mean you won't save my sister?"
Only then did the strange old man discover Ji Ruyan's existence. When he heard her words, he was shocked, "This baby is your sister?"
"Guaranteed replacement if fake!"
The strange old man frowned with joy and responded cheerfully: "Okay! For your sake, I'll save you! However, you owe me a favor."
"Okay!"
Ji Ruyan knew that in this world, it was easy to repay debts, but it was difficult to repay favors, but for the sake of her sister, she still agreed.
"Okay!"
The strange old man took the baby from Doctor Li's arms, and then said to Doctor Li: "Little Liz, you go back first! Come pick me up tomorrow morning!"
"This..."
Doctor Li doesn't know whether he should leave. If he goes back now and Feng Tianyou asks him for help, how should he respond?
The strange old man glanced at him, "What? Do you still want to protest what I said?"
"Uncle! Your words are serious, Xiao Li will never dare to disobey!"
"Then why are you still standing here? Why don't you go back to your nest!"
Doctor Li had no choice but to compromise, "Then, Miss Ruyan and Second Miss will be handed over to the uncle. Xiao Li will come to pick them up tomorrow morning."
"Get out of here!"
The strange old man dropped two words without politeness, turned around and led Ji Ruyan into his thatched cottage.
