Chapter 549 Two People Walking Alone
Shen Cuo's condition was not good, she had to rush over to save him.
Lu Shian drove the carriage back. The sound of horse hooves gradually approached in the darkness. Lu Shian stopped immediately and turned to get into the carriage.
She secretly lifted the curtain to look, and if the person coming was Liu Sheng's man, she would hide in the space.
Unexpectedly, there was only one horse coming. After thinking for a moment, Lu Shian bravely shouted to the person who came.
"Shen is wrong."
Hearing this, Shen Cuo immediately pulled the reins.
"Ten An."
Hearing that it was Shen Cuo, Lu Shian turned around, jumped off the carriage and ran in the direction of Shen Cuo.
Shen Cuo got off the horse and fell down.
Lu Shian couldn't see clearly in the darkness, but Shen Cuo felt sticky when he touched him, and there was a strong smell of blood on his body.
"Shen Cuo, Shen Cuo."
Lu Shian shouted and slapped, but Shen Cuo didn't react at all.
Lu Shian looked around, stood up and groped for the horse, then slapped it hard on the back. The horse neighed and ran forward desperately.
After the horse ran away, she carried Shen Cuo into the carriage.
She drove the carriage for a while, worrying whether Liu Sheng and the others would catch up with her, and whether Shen Cuo would die.
Finally, she decided to stop the carriage and see how Shen Cuo was doing.
Lu Shian groped her way into the carriage in the dark, then took out a flashlight. Only then could she see clearly that Shen Cuo had wounds of varying sizes all over his body, and his clothes were soaked in blood.
She hurriedly took out the medicine box from the space, quickly helped Shen Cuo treat the wound, and took out anti-inflammatory and painkiller drugs for Shen Cuo to take.
Then she turned around and got out of the carriage. She looked around with the flashlight in her hand. There was a fork in the road ahead, which was a small road.
Lu Shian decided to take the small road.
After entering the woods, Lu Shian parked the carriage in a place she thought was safe and turned to get into the carriage.
After tossing and turning all night, she was very tired and decided to rest first.
When she woke up again, she was leaning on Shen Cuo.
She was stunned for a moment, then sat up awkwardly. Perhaps she had touched Shen Cuo's wound, and Shen Cuo groaned in pain.
Lu Shian hurried to see: "What's wrong? What's wrong? Does the wound hurt?"
There was no blood on Shen Cuo's lips, obviously he had lost too much blood yesterday.
"I am fine."
Seeing that he could still laugh, Lu Shian immediately withdrew his hand.
"You shouldn't have come to rescue me yesterday."
Shen Cuo looked at Lu Shian with his head down and said, "I know you have the ability, but I'm afraid your ability may not always work. If you need me at a critical moment, you will be sad if I'm not here."
Although the words were ambiguous, Lu Shian felt guilty and didn't dare to look at him.
She is already a virtuous concubine and must never have any involvement with any man again.
"I heard that you encountered Liu Sheng's ambushes on the road?"
"Ah."
Shen Cuo did not tell Lu Shian that he was the only one who encountered the ambush.
"I don't know when our reinforcements will arrive. I plan to go to the authorities first."
"No."
"Huh?" Lu Shian didn't understand what Shen Cuo meant by "no".
"Don't look for the government. They have their people in the government."
Lu Shian couldn't believe it: "How is this possible? This is the Great Abyss Kingdom."
"On the way to track him, I once went to the government to seek their help, but I don't know what went wrong. The officers and soldiers did not help to search, and even the letter I sent by carrier pigeon to Anjing did not receive a response. According to the time, the reinforcements should have arrived long ago."
"I really underestimated the Wu Kingdom. Has it penetrated to this extent?"
"We still don't know which link has gone wrong, so it's always better to be careful."
Lu Shian thought for a moment and said, "Since we can't ask the government for help, we can only think of other ways."
After getting out of the carriage, Lu Shian stood on tiptoe and looked into the distance. There was no town in sight, but there was a village.
Lu Shian frowned, this terrain seemed a little familiar.
"Acacia Village?"
Lu Shian was overjoyed: "It really is Huaishu Village."
She turned and got into the carriage: "I know where we should go."
Lu Shian excitedly drove his horse-drawn carriage to Huaishu Village. The village, which was not big to begin with, was now even smaller.
At the entrance of the village, an old woman was walking in carrying a bundle of firewood.
Lu Shian recognized her at a glance: "Grandma Sun."
Grandma Sun hunched over and looked up. Her eyes were not clear and she squinted for a long time but still couldn't see clearly who was calling her.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Grandma Sun, don't you recognize me?"
"You are……"
Grandma Sun thought about it but couldn't remember any rich girls she knew.
Lu Shian opened his mouth to explain, but didn't know how to explain.
Randomly laughed and said, "Grandma Sun, we are passing by here and would like to stay here for a few days. I wonder if there is any vacant house anywhere."
"Ah, can I borrow your place..."
Grandma Sun looked Lu Shian up and down again, then turned around and pointed in the direction of the county town and said tremblingly, "You, continue walking along this road and you will reach the county town. There is a restaurant where you can have a meal."
Lu Shian smiled: "Grandma Sun, I want to stay in this village."
Grandma Sun looked puzzled: "You want to stay in the village."
Lu Shian nodded.
Grandma Sun frowned and waved her hands: "No, no."
Lu Shian asked hurriedly: "Grandma Sun, what's wrong?"
Grandma Sun sighed and whispered, "Girl, you are so delicate and tender, you look like a lady from a wealthy family. You won't be able to adapt to living in this poor and remote place. You should listen to my advice and find a place to live in the county town."
Lu Shi covered his mouth and laughed secretly, took out a small piece of silver from his pocket and stuffed it into Grandma Sun's hand: "Grandma Sun, can you let me stay at your house for two days?"
Grandma Sun was so shocked that she was speechless when she saw the change in her hand.
Lu Shian got off the carriage and took the firewood from Grandma Sun: "Grandma Sun, get on the carriage."
Grandma Sun stood there in a daze. It was Lu Shian who put the firewood away and helped her get into the carriage.
But when the carriage passed by the former Ye family residence, Lu Shian could no longer laugh.
The mud house from that time has now collapsed into ruins.
Lu Shian jumped off the carriage and walked into the ruins.
It all started here. She remembers everything here clearly, but now everything has changed.
Who would have thought that the current Concubine Xian would come from here.
When Grandma Sun saw Lu Shian coming down the carriage, she also jumped off. Because of her old age, she almost sprained her ankle.
"There was a big flood here a few years ago, and many people died. Some chose to flee, and some stayed."
Seeing that Lu Shian didn't say anything, Grandma Sun continued, "The Ye family fled. As for where they fled to, no one knows."
Lu Shian came to the stone steps and sat down. He looked up and seemed to see the past again.
