Chapter 187 Strange Man
Chapter 187 Strange Man
Seeing the sweat on her forehead, Xuan Li couldn't help but ask, "Does it hurt a lot? Why don't you rest for a while?"
Feng Siyue shook her head.
"Let's go in first and talk about it later. I can still tolerate it."
Despite feeling weak all over and having taken a lot of painkillers, the lingering pain still made her break out in a cold sweat!
The battle at Shaquan nearly drained her life.
Painkillers can relieve pain, but not completely.
"Okay, then let's take our time."
"A trial? Do you think I'm afraid of it?!"
Passing through the entrance of Shiqiang Town, one is greeted by a rugged and winding stone path. The houses on all sides are made of wood and seem to have been in disrepair for many years, giving them a desolate appearance.
The path was littered with dilapidated and abandoned wooden planks.
After walking for a while, the two remarked, "This town is so quiet!"
"What about people?"
"Why can't I see any of them?"
Xuan Li looked around, but he didn't see anyone else, not even the two old men who had just come in.
"It's weird."
Feeling the evening breeze blowing from the north, Feng Siyue said, "Ah Ling, let's go to the beach."
“The fishing village is located by the sea and people make a living by fishing, so they are probably all working by the sea.”
"Not necessarily. With diseases and monsters rampant, there won't be anyone at the beach for safety reasons."
Despite saying that, Xuan Li still pushed Feng Siyue toward the beach not far away.
A moment later, Xuan Li covered his nose and looked at the dark blue-green sea with disgust.
"No, it's smelly and black. Isn't it because they ate the food in here that they got sick?"
Feng Siyue's spiritual power can only sense living things and their aura, but cannot see what they look like.
"Is it the same as the lake outside the town?"
"Yeah! It's so green it's almost black!"
"Hey! Who's from here?! Didn't we say no one is allowed to go out in the evening?"
"Don't die!"
Behind him, a slightly impatient young man's voice came from behind.
With hurried footsteps, Feng Siyue felt dizzy and quickly retreated along with Suyu!
Her face immediately turned pale!
As the world spun around him, Feng Siyue felt a wave of dizziness wash over him!
The stone path was not smooth, and Su Yu was easily shaken and tilted when walking on the bumpy ground. The collision between her body and the wood made her feel pain!
The wound seems to have split open...
A groan of pain escaped her lips and reached Xuan Li's ears clearly.
Xuan Li turned around and saw this scene. He didn't even care that he was being dragged by him. He immediately got angry!
She pushed the man's hand away.
"Are you crazy?! Why are you dragging us around?"
Xuan Li quickly snatched Su Yu back from the man's hands and asked anxiously, "How are you? Does it hurt a lot?"
The man didn't use any spiritual power to pull them away, nor did he expect the other party to suddenly attack, which is why he was actually pushed away by Xuan Li in an instant.
After his initial surprise, his face turned extremely pale.
"What time is it and you're still out here? Didn't we tell you not to come out at night? You didn't listen, and now that I'm trying to save you, you're pushing me?"
"What a wolf-hearted thing!"
Feng Siyue covered her shoulder and shook her head, as if to say that she was fine, but Xuan Li noticed that the color of her clothes on her shoulder had become much darker.
She wiped her hand, and her hand was covered in red.
She then checked Feng Siyue's back and legs and found that they were bleeding to varying degrees!
Xuan Li was furious. "Save us? Is this what you call saving us?"
She looked directly at the man before her. He wore a dark blue robe, his long hair was tied up high, and beneath his thick eyebrows were a pair of slightly tired eyes. His features were high and handsome.
The man clearly noticed the blood on her hands, and coupled with the faint scent of medicine and blood in the air, he realized that the girl was injured.
But now is not the time to dwell on this. The man said in a restrained tone, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Come with me now! If we're any later, we'll all die here!"
Xuan Li glared at him, then helped Feng Siyue walk forward. "We're just ordinary people, how fast can we run? My sister's injuries are so serious, if you keep urging us, you'll have to carry her on your back!"
man:"......"
He took a deep breath and then squatted down in front of them.
"Come up!"
Is he really that unlucky?
Xuan Li raised an eyebrow. "I think it's better for you to leave on your own. What if I can't catch up with you after you take her away?"
With that, he started to walk forward.
They don't have the habit of going with strangers.
The man, unable to bear it any longer, simply stood up, took out the carriage he had kept in his storage bag, and said through gritted teeth,
"Get up!"
Women in small towns are such a hassle!
Xuan Li's eyes lit up when he saw the carriage.
"If only you had told me you had a carriage, we wouldn't have had to walk."
Xuan Li pushed Feng Siyue onto the carriage, while the man, with a dark face, drove the carriage, wildly waving the reins, heading towards the heart of the quiet town.
The journey was a bit bumpy.
A moment later, the carriage stopped.
"We're here, get off!"
Only then did the man's voice become less aggressive.
Xuan Li lifted the carriage curtain, revealing a place resembling a temple, surrounded by overgrown weeds, with insects chirping and rustling among them.
It's very quiet, but also very noisy.
It was pitch black without any lights on.
She pushed Feng Siyue down, the wooden wheels rolling on the ground with a 'rolling' sound.
