Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.

Chapter 247: Life hangs in the balance

Within a few words, he ran back frantically, shouting, "Where is Doctor Zhang? Hurry, Mr. Marquis is waiting for help!"

 All the working villagers stood up in unison, surprised and frightened.

Miracle doctor Zhang was lying on the peanut seedlings and taking a nap, but he was also startled. Before he could recover, Mr. Li stepped forward, picked him up and ran away!

 Shenji Zhang was so angry that he slapped Mr. Li hard and shouted, "Get my medicine box!"

Jiayi and Liu Yang ran towards the village, shouting as they ran, "Nai, let's follow Fourth Uncle to rescue Mr. Hou!"

Of course Mrs. Li couldn't stop her, "Okay, take the medicine box and then go home to get the money."

Everyone doesn’t know what the situation is like on the Marquis’ side, but at any time, money can make the world go round, so it’s always a good idea to bring more money.

In the blink of an eye, most of the Li family ran away. Jiayin was so anxious that she jumped up and raised her calves to run, but she couldn't run fast. She could only hug Sister-in-law Qiong's neck and urged: "Go home, go home!"

Sister-in-law Qiong looked at Mrs. Cui, Mrs. Cui nodded, then she hugged Jiayin and hurriedly followed.

After all, Mrs. Li was old and her legs were slow. Fortunately, Sister-in-law Qiong was young and good at martial arts. She hugged Jiayin, supported the old lady, and quickly returned to the Li family yard.

Old Mrs. Li went straight to the main house and rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to get some money.

 Fortunately, I received another salary payment earlier, otherwise the family would be in trouble.

Sister-in-law Qiong retreated out of the door with a wink, and the good news quickly started to spread.

The only common medicines in her space were a bottle of anti-inflammatory medicine, but there were also two bottles of Yunnan Baiyao powder and a large bottle of salt water. She had changed the packaging before when she was idle, and it came in handy now.

There are also silver knives, so I need to prepare some...

The old lady took out the money box, and as soon as she turned around, she was so frightened that she almost let go.

The granddaughter was sitting on the kang, with dozens of silver taels placed in front of her, totaling two or three hundred taels. Comparatively, these in her hand were nothing.

She was not allowed to ask any more questions, Dongmei had already barged in, "Old madam, I heard that the Marquis was injured?"

"Yes," Mrs. Li didn't have time to be surprised anymore. She poured out all the silver and copper coins in the money box, pulled a package and wrapped it in together with the silver coins her granddaughter took out.

Jiayin grabbed Dongmei's hand, pointed to several bottles and said, "Uncle Ye knows how to take these white pills. It's best to take one as soon as you go. In addition, this powder can stop bleeding and relieve pain. Sprinkle it on the wound and leave it within one day after the bleeding stops." Just use this bottle of medicine to clean it and then bandage it.”

Dongmei nodded heavily despite being frightened, quickly stuffed the medicine bottles into her arms, then took the silver bag given by Mrs. Li on her back, turned around and left.

Just as Jiayi and Liu Yang came back carrying Miracle Doctor Zhang’s medicine box, the three of them rushed out.

The soldiers who ran to report back the message immediately let their horses out, and soon they disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, the villagers rushed back from the fields and surrounded the soldiers asking questions.

"what happened?"

“Yes, why is Mr. Hou injured?

 “Where is Mr. Hou injured?”

The soldiers also came to the village with the Marquis, and they didn't hide it now.

 “The Marquis was not injured by barbarians, but was assassinated!”

A soldier was so angry that his eyes were red, "Originally, we were patrolling Jiangbei. Last time, we killed thousands of barbarians, and the barbarian defense line retreated thirty miles. We should be safe. But suddenly a family of four came out of the forest. The man and woman brought two and a half-year-old children, and they said they were being chased by wolves. The man and woman looked dying, and the two children were crying hard.

"The Marquis wanted to take them to Jiangnan for treatment, but the half-grown boy grabbed the Marquis's sleeve and refused to let go. The Marquis felt soft-hearted, so he put him on the horse and rode back to the dock with him. As a result, the half-grown boy On the way, he took out a dagger and tried to stab him. He was alert and avoided the fatal blow, but his back was cut with a long **** and he was bleeding profusely! "

"Damn it, there are still such wolf-hearted people!" "Yes, the Marquis saved their lives, and they actually repaid him with kindness!"

"No, these people are not just rushing to assassinate the marquis, deliberately hiding in Jiangbei, pretending to be victims of the disaster, right?"

 “It’s possible, it’s possible!”

“In order to keep everyone safe, the Marquis guarded the dock day and night. There is no credit but hard work. Who is this, actually trying to harm the Marquis? It’s so chilling!”

Everyone started to curse and stamp their feet anxiously.

I thought the Marquis was injured in a fight with the barbarians, but it turned out to be an assassination!

This is not possible. What if the people around the Marquis are not reliable and they try to kill him again while the Marquis is injured?

 It's impossible to save only Lao Si, Jiayi Liu Yang, and Dongmei!

"No, once the autumn harvest is over, we have to go and pick up the Marquis. Our village is not safe anywhere. If someone dares to hurt the Marquis, we can't agree even at the risk of our lives!" The village chief rarely lost his composure and calmness, and became anxious. Round and round.

Just as Li Lao'er came back, he grabbed Li Lao'er and said, "Lao Er, you guard the village while I take people to the pier."

"Uncle, I was just about to say this. We are ordinary people and do not understand the thoughts of those nobles. However, the Marquis is favored by the emperor and has a large number of soldiers. Anyone who wants to take this opportunity to harm the Marquis may not be able to do it. "Master. We must help, and we can't be so foolish as to wait for Mr. Hou to come back."

Li Laoer also had a sullen face and replied: "Uncle is old, you are at home, I will take the young people in the village and rush over."

 The people in the village responded immediately.

 “I’ll go, take me one!

 “There’s me, I’ll go too!”

In an instant, all the young men and women in the village stood up, including a few young men.

Li Laoer ordered seven or eight people and some young men, "You stay here, in case someone takes advantage of this opportunity to come and cause trouble. The rest go home, grab knives and dry food, and dress neatly. We will gather at the entrance of the village in half an hour." !”

The villagers dispersed with a roar, and Mrs. Cui who stayed behind stepped forward and said to Li Laoer: "Drive our carriage together with your mule carriage, and everyone will take turns to get on the carriage to rest, and we will continue on our way." Can be faster."

 “Okay, thank you Mrs. Cui.” Li Laoer saluted.

Mrs. Cui quickly waved her hand, "It's just a family that is not polite. Besides, Mr. Marquis also saved my life and my senior brother's life at the dock. Now is the time to repay the favor."

Jiayin was worried that her second uncle was not good at martial arts and that this trip would be dangerous... But in her previous life, she was just an ordinary home girl, and there was really no weapon reserve at home...

 At this time, it would be great to have a pistol, or even a high-voltage electric baton.

 It's a pity that if there is no, there is no, she can only worry!

Soon, everyone gathered at the entrance of the village. A carriage and a mule carriage, and twenty-five young and strong men set off.

Facing the noon sun, we rushed to Jiangbei Pier.

Jiayin’s eyes were red and she hugged her grandma’s neck tightly.

She came to this strange world when she was born. Her family was her warm harbor, her grandmother was her supporter, and Mr. Ye was her protector.

Mr. Ye knows the most about her secrets, but he has never asked a word about her.

This kind of complete trust and protection freed her from fear and anxiety, allowing her to sleep peacefully and make money "unscrupulously".

 But now, her protector’s life is at stake...
