"You, your wrist is injured, I'll help you bandage it!"

Xia Li was shocked, she did not expect him to discover the effects of the painkilling medicine so quickly.

"Don't worry, I'm actually more interested in the medicine in your hands."

As Sun Chun spoke, his eyes revealed a strong sense of curiosity, and he was in the mood to chat with Xia Li.

"If you care about your wounds, I can help you bandage them for free. This is to repay you for helping out with my mother's matter today. If it were anything else, I'm sorry, but I'm not accompanying you." "I told you earlier, this painkiller belongs to me. If it isn't passed on to outsiders, it would be better for you to just die."

"Help me bandage it."

Sun Chun didn't continue to question him, but stretched out his wrist towards Xia Li.

"I'm warning you, don't follow me around and don't pry into anything related to painkillers. Don't even think about using this medicine. If I find out that you have intentions in this regard, I'll chase you out."

Xia Li said as he selected a few herbs used to treat injuries from the kitchen basket. He mixed them into a grass juice and smeared it on Sun Chun's wrist, then returned to his room and found a few bandages left over from the previous time to bandage Sun Chun's wound, and also bandaged his wrist.

Honestly speaking, I am indeed very interested in this medicine. After all, as a businessman, this is a rare business opportunity, so you should grasp it well. It's not impossible for you to be as rich as an entire country, but I'm not bad enough to seize other people's precious resources.

"You talk too much. You don't even put fifty silver in your eyes. It seems that your family has always wanted to become famous. Is it convenient to tell me what your family does?" You can have a wife at home. Where do you live? If by any chance, you are an unforgivable person, I won't dare to take you in! "

Xia Li's face was solemn, she grabbed onto his wrist tightly, not relaxing for a moment.

"You can ignore the things that second aunt and Little Shuang asked you earlier, but I am the one asking you these things now. Who exactly are you? "Where do you live?"

Seeing Xia Li's serious expression, hesitation quickly flashed past his eyes as he thought deeply. After a long while, he sighed and said.

After father passed away, they brought me here to this desolate village to kill myself. I thought that they would be willing to let me go, but who would have thought that the people who would kill me on the way would be people sent by my mother. Now that I've been hiding in your house to recuperate, and I've fallen down from the cliff, they might not be able to find my corpse, so they might think that I've died.

"I don't want to blow my own identity, so I'm afraid of bringing trouble upon you. I hope you'll forgive me, because if I say this out loud, it will scare you. I also don't want to bring up anything related to the capital myself."

As Sun Chun spoke, the depths of his eyes gradually became tainted with a layer of ice.

Xia Li's heart was also a little heavy. Seeing Sun Chun's ice-cold expression, the depression that appeared in her eyes didn't seem to be lying. Since the other party had already said that she wasn't willing to mention it, she couldn't tear apart Sun Chun's scar either.

Xia Li loosened his grip on Sun Chun's wrist, and just as he turned to leave, he heard his voice once again.

"This medicine is very precious. If it is used in the military, it would be considered a rare high grade medicine. Think about how to place the painkiller in your hands. I believe you understand that the large circulation of this medicine is not necessarily a good thing for you."

After Sun Chun finished speaking, without waiting for Xia Li to react, he looked at the bandage on his wrist and used his sleeves to cover it. He went back to his room and slammed the door shut.

Xia Li looked at the tightly closed door in front of him, as though he was thinking about something.

How could she not understand Sun Chun's words?

Pain medicine is a fatal temptation for anyone.

But if she wanted to pay her debts now, she could only rely on painkillers... No matter how dangerous it was, she could only brace herself.

Rarely, when she paid off her debts, she would slowly narrow the sales of painkillers.

Xia Li went to the kitchen and tied up the roots of the Polygonum multiflorum Bunge that he had harvested in the grass basket into a bundle. He also bundled up a few other medicinal herbs that had healing knife wounds and typhoid fever into a small bundle and hugged them.

Xia Li knocked on the door to Lee's's house. was already asleep, and Lee's was about to fall asleep when he saw Xia Li coming in, and immediately woke up.

"Girl, you just came back from gathering herbs, why don't you go back and rest for a while?"

Lee's smiled and looked at Xia Li.

If we don't sell it in time, it will wither and rot away, and we won't be able to exchange it for money. So, I need to get the herbs to the medicine store in the town in time to sell them.

"Alright, mother's place is pretty good. You don't have to worry, daughter. Go and come back quickly. Be careful on the road."

When the Lee's heard that Xia Li wanted to take the herbs to pay for it, thinking of his family's debts, he immediately became serious.

"Then I'll go first, Mother."

Xia Li carried the herbs and left the Lee's. He walked out of the house, into the courtyard, and then looked towards Sun Chun's room, only to see that Sun Chun, who was originally standing by the window, had slammed the window open, causing Xia Li to be unable to see anything.

Xia Li did not mind, he turned and walked out of the courtyard, passing through the Li Village and heading straight for the town.

As Sun Chun's footsteps went further away, Sun Chun once again raised the window, and looked in the direction that Xia Li had disappeared to.
