As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1182
Chapter 1182 Awaken
“No, I won’t …”
The green-clothed woman hurriedly shook her hand and explained, “This person’s face is clear, but his internal organs are slightly damaged. It’s not like his body is suffering from a serious illness, and …”
Before she could finish her sentence, another person among the twenty-odd villagers said, “Even if he is not sick, he is still a good person or a bad person. Miss Liu’er, do you know that bringing him back to the village so hastily is probably not a good thing …”
There was a lot of discussion in the crowd. In short, there was a unanimous opposition to bringing an unknown stranger into the village.
The middle-aged Qingyi frowned. It was obvious that he couldn’t make up his mind for a moment. The woman in green frowned and said, “Daddy, don’t you often tell me that a doctor is kind-hearted? Our doctor is a man who can help the world. He still has a breath left. Should we not save him if he dies?”
At this time, another elder walked out and stroked his beard. “Miss Liu’er, everyone knows that you are kind-hearted, but this person … Look at him. He is young, but his hair is already full of brilliance. He must not be an ordinary person. If he were to rashly bring him into the village, then how … would this be possible?”
The red-dressed girl stood beside the crowd, scratching her head. She didn’t know if Sister Liu’er was right or if everyone was right.
“Daddy …”
The green-clothed woman frowned slightly. She looked at her father motionlessly and finally said, “Otherwise, bring him to the house rock behind the village. The house rock is still some distance away from the village. It’s fine if you don’t enter the village …”
“This …”
The green-robed middle-aged man still frowned. Finally, he slowly turned around and cupped his hands to the twenty-odd villagers. “Little girl has caused trouble for everyone” He then looked at the old man who was leaning on a walking stick and said, “Village Chief, what do you think?”
“Mm …”
The old man with the walking stick nodded slightly and said, “This young man is still alive, so we can’t expose him to the wilderness. In this way, his corpse will rot, and it might even cause a plague. Let’s do as Miss Liu’er said!”
“What’s wrong?”
Right at this moment, a dark-skinned youth crawled in from behind the crowd. The youth looked like he was fifteen or sixteen years old. The woman in green looked at him and said, “Sun Hou’er, you came at the right time. Quickly do your sister a favor and carry this person to the roof of the mountain behind the village.”
The youth walked over and looked at Xiao Chen on the ground. He waved his hand and smiled, “Hey! Isn’t this just a living person that frightened all of you?” At this point, he leaned closer to the old man with the cane and smiled playfully, “Old man, if you walk forward, this man will jump up!”
“You little monkey …”
The elder took out his cane and knocked on his butt. The youth chuckled and purposely dodged his butt. The woman in green glared at him gently, “Little monkey, don’t be poor anymore. Quickly carry someone on your back.”
“Good!”
The youth grinned. He squatted down and easily carried Xiao Chen’s eight-foot body. Then, he flew towards the back of the village.
“This grandmonkey runs faster than anyone else …”
“That’s not true. I went to the mountains to hunt wild boars a while ago. The wild boars didn’t hit me, but I fell into the mud instead.”
“Sigh, I wonder where this young man came from …”
The crowd slowly dispersed. On a mountain behind Gu He Village, there was a cave. Because it looked like a pavilion house, it was called a house rock by the local villagers. Sometimes, people who went up the mountain to cut firewood were tired, so they would come here to rest.
…
“Daddy, did you see anything?”
Inside the cave, there were only Xiao Chen and Liu Jingjing, who were unconscious. The green-clothed woman’s name was Liu Jingjing, nicknamed “Liu’er”. Her father was a famous doctor in the village, named Liu Yong. He had practiced medicine for more than 30 years and had a lot of experience.
At this moment, he also saw his brows furrowed. After a while, he sighed softly and slowly raised his head. He looked at his daughter beside him and said, “Jingjing, I’m afraid this person … is not an ordinary person.”
“Then” Liu Jingjing frowned and looked at Xiao Chen again. She whispered, “Then … is he still alive?”
Liu Yong stroked his beard and said, “His internal organs have been damaged so badly, but there are no wounds on his body. It seems that he is a martial artist, and the person who injured him is also one of the best experts in the world.”
“A martial artist …”
Liu Jingjing was stunned for a moment. She stared blankly at Xiao Chen who was unconscious. No wonder she saw him at first glance. He really wasn’t an ordinary person …
“Sigh …”
Liu Yong sighed softly and said, “Jianghu matters are not something people in Jianghu can’t control. I wonder if it’s a blessing or a curse to save him today.”
Liu Jingjing also understood her father’s worries. The Ancient River Village was far away from the disputes in Jianghu. If it broke the original calm because of saving a person from Jianghu, it would be … just like the Village Chief had said. There were some things that could not be said.
“Forget it.”
Liu Yong waved his hand and said, “He seems to be fine outside, but he has five internal injuries. Let’s see if he can recover in two days. If he can’t recover, then it’s also his good fortune. He has to blame no one else.”
“Mm …”
Liu Jingjing frowned slightly and nodded lightly. That afternoon, she took a blanket from her home and put Xiao Chen on it to avoid catching a cold again.
Two days passed like this, and during these two days, Liu Jingjing would bring her medicine chest several times a day, but she still couldn’t see Xiao Chen wake up.
On the third day, like the previous two days, she came to the rock and observed Xiao Chen’s pulse. It was at this moment that Xiao Chen finally woke up and said, “You, you …”
“You’re finally awake!”
When Liu Jingjing saw him wake up, she was overjoyed. When she saw his pair of clear eyes that looked like moonlight, she was stunned. There was actually such a beautiful person in this world …
“Auntie, girl … this … this …”
Xiao Chen wanted to sit up, but he discovered that his entire body was stiff and he was unable to move. Only then did Liu Jingjing regain her senses and hurriedly supported him, “Your injuries are very serious, don’t move …” As she spoke, she slowly helped him back to his bed.
At this moment, the way Xiao Chen looked at her slowly became somewhat confused. He asked, “Why am I here … You are …”
Liu Jingjing saw that his consciousness was still a little unclear and said, “This is outside the Ancient River Village. You were seriously injured and floated down the river. Do you still remember what happened before you fainted?”
“Seriously injured, unconscious …”
Xiao Chen was still a little confused. Liu Jingjing waited for a while. Seeing that he couldn’t remember anything, she asked, “Then do you still remember who you are?”
“I am …”
Xiao Chen’s eyes were similarly confused. In the end, he shook his head and looked at the person in front of him in confusion, “I don’t know …”
