The conversation of the little old men

The little old men were all emotional people. One moment they were joking, the next moment they became serious. Jiang Liu'er quickly listened carefully. Who knew, these words might be of great help to him.

"Of course, these youngsters are interested in young ladies who wander the streets by themselves in the middle of the night." Of course, of course, these youngsters are interested in young ladies who walk the streets by themselves in the middle of the night.

"Those young lads were so happy, it was as if they had been cut off by this girl. I didn't expect this little girl to have such a fiery temper and immediately give a slap to the face. These lads are definitely unhappy and were about to attack at any moment, but this little girl has already spoken."

"Mhmm, the little girl's aura is quite good. We little old geezers wanted to help her, but we little geezers actually lost our teeth in the blink of an eye. We little geezers are just running like piss."

"When the young man was running away, it was still a young lady who was caught. She asked if she had seen anyone called River Child before."

When Jiang Liu'er heard this, the corner of her mouth twitched uncontrollably. A bad premonition surfaced in his mind.

"That young man was so scared that he pissed his pants. Hahaha, he gave us little old men a good laugh. Oh yeah, young man, I've been chatting with you for so long, what's your name?"

Jiang Liu'er gave an awkward laugh and revealed her name.

"Jiang Liu'er?"

The few old men looked at each other and spoke in unison.

"So it's you, Jiang Liu'er."

Jiang Liu'er smiled and nodded. She quickly found an excuse to slip away and ran all the way home. It wasn't until she sat on the sofa that she finally let out a sigh of relief.

Who would have thought that after eating breakfast, he would reap so much rewards? "Sob, sob, sob."

Jiang Liu'er was startled by the sound that suddenly came from her body. She calmed her heart to sense the black gas in her Dantian and quickly adjusted her position to be comfortable.

After one night and one morning, a lot of the black gas had gathered in his dantian. He had to hurry and absorb it, or else he would not be able to absorb it when it reached saturation.

Only after an hour had passed did Jiang Liu'er completely absorb the black gas. She took a deep breath to calm herself down.

Sitting on the sofa, Jiang Liu'er recalled every word that the old men had said to her this morning. If she wasn't mistaken, Xuanyuan Mingxue was either an idiot or there was something that prevented her from returning.

Jiang Liu'er didn't need to worry about this, because those old men had already given him a clear message that they would be able to find Xuanyuan Mingxue.

The dark path the old man used to walk, and at night, what River Child now had to do, was wait.

"Let's try our luck. Maybe we will meet again?"

Jiang Liu'er thought for a while, then hurriedly packed up and left the house. It was possible that if he delayed for a while, Xuanyuan Mingxue would encounter some trouble.

Jiang Liu'er wasn't exactly familiar with the streets near the residential complex, but he still knew a bit about them. He followed the directions the old men had given and found Jiang Liu'er easily, but …

Jiang Liu'er had long known that there was a dumpster behind the district, but he didn't expect that the place the old man told him about was this dumpster.

"Xuanyuan Mingxue couldn't really be here, right?"

Jiang Liu'er was a little skeptical. In a place like this, Xuanyuan Mingxue shouldn't be reduced to such a state, right?

However, it wasn't impossible. Jiang Liu'er could only brace herself and try.

The first reason was that there weren't any decent garbage collection stations around the district. Many homeless people had gathered here to pick up scraps, but it had been a long time since someone managed it, so the environment was getting worse.

Secondly, like the old man said, there would always be some gangsters appearing here. These people were like trash in society. The two names coincided, so everyone was used to calling this place a trash spot.

The air in this area wasn't very good. Jiang Liu'er pinched her nose as she passed by the vagabonds lying on the ground. Because she couldn't take a bath for a long time, a sour smell wafted from their bodies.

Although Jiang Liu'er felt that the smell was bad, she still pitied these people because it was very possible that they were actually unpolished jade, just that they lacked an opportunity to become proficient in it.

Forget it, now was not the time for him to fight for these people. His current mission was to find Xuanyuan Mingxue as soon as possible …

Perhaps it was destined in the underworld, or perhaps Jiang Liu'er and Xuanyuan Mingxue had the ability to sense each other, but just as he was about to leave the area, he bumped into Xuanyuan Mingxue.

"How did you become like this?" Jiang Liu'er looked at Xuanyuan Mingxue's tattered clothes and the wounds on her body. Her heart felt as if it had been cut by a knife as blood dripped from the pain.

Although Jiang Liu'er knew how powerful Xuanyuan Mingxue was, but … After all, he was a girl, not to mention that she had always been by Jiang Liu'er's side. As a man, Jiang Liu'er had the responsibility to protect Xuanyuan Mingxue.

However, he did not care about Xuanyuan Mingxue's life and was sleeping soundly at home every night. Wasn't he too inhumane?

"Hurry up and take me home. I'll tell you when I get home."

Jiang Liu'er quickly brought Xuanyuan Mingxue home. When they returned home, Xuanyuan Mingxue immediately rushed to the bathroom. She sat on the sofa, feeling uneasy that something bad was about to happen.

Half an hour later, Xuanyuan Mingxue finally walked out of the bathroom. Xuanyuan Mingxue, who wore flowing river clothes, had not dried the water droplets on her hair. The droplets flowed down her shirt and made her clothes somewhat transparent.

Jiang Liu'er blinked her eyes, the clothes stuck to Xuanyuan Mingxue's body, revealing her picked out figure. The two lumps of waves on her chest seemed to surge, and adding that the buttons on her collar were not completely fastened, her career lines were faintly revealed. This sort of naked temptation made Jiang Liu'er unable to hold back a little.

Xuanyuan Mingxue looked towards Jiang Liu'er, puzzled. It wasn't until she noticed the translucent clothes on her chest that she finally reacted.

"Rogue!" After swearing, he found a towel to wrap himself in and sat on the sofa, "Have you seen enough, I have something important to tell you."

Jiang Liu'er swallowed her saliva, tidied up her emotions and nodded, "What's the matter, speak."

"I've been out for a few days …" "Cough, cough." Just as Jiang Liu'er opened her mouth, she suddenly coughed and coughed twice. Blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, causing the flow of the river to jump in fright.

"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Liu'er hurried forward, wanting to extend her hand, but Xuanyuan Mingxue pushed him away.

"What are you doing, scoundrel?" Xuanyuan Mingxue still cared about the lustful look in Jiang Liu'er's eyes, so she didn't want him to get too close to her.

The pitiful Jiang Liu'er could only watch helplessly as Xuanyuan Mingxue coughed up blood, not being able to help in any way.

Only now did Xuanyuan Mingxue realize that she was coughing up blood. She hurriedly wiped it off with a tissue before Jiang Liu'er rushed forward to help.

Xuanyuan Mingxue frowned but did not refuse. But who knew that blood would flow out from her nose right after she wiped it clean? This scene caused even a man like Jiang Liu'er to be a little afraid.

Jiang Liu`er was aware of Xuanyuan Mingxue's abilities, even without her saying anything, she knew that something must have happened to Xuanyuan Mingxue in the past few days.

"I'll send you to the hospital. How can you be like this? Hurry and get up." Jiang Liu'er carried Xuanyuan Mingxue up, wanting to send her to the hospital for inspection. However, Xuanyuan Mingxue was struggling desperately.

"No way, no way. Put me down and listen to me." Xuanyuan Mingxue was keenly aware of her body's condition. Although this wasn't the first time blood had flowed out, she was still afraid.

The reason why she didn't go to the hospital was because she couldn't go at all, "Even the hospital can't find out why I'm like this. If you take me to the hospital, the doctors will definitely find all sorts of reasons to not be able to find out the cause of the disease. "Let me stay in the hospital. If anything happens, neither you nor I will be able to bear the burden."

Xuanyuan Mingxue's nervous expression made Jiang Liu'er realize the seriousness of the situation. He could only listen to Xuanyuan Mingxue and ask her to stay at home, but there was nothing he could do.

Jiang Liu'er carefully carried Xuanyuan Mingxue onto the bed and placed her pillow behind her so that Xuanyuan Mingxue could lean against it more comfortably.

"But …"

"No buts, I know my own body well, don't worry." Xuanyuan Mingxue looked at River Stream's nervous face and suddenly felt truly nervous.

She had never felt this way in her entire life. It was the feeling a man gave her, different from her father's, perhaps …

Xuanyuan Mingxue hurriedly shook her head. Now was not the time to think about such a messy time.

"Actually, after separating from you that day, I did encounter a few things. However, things weren't as difficult as I thought they would be. I could have come back, but …"

Just as Xuanyuan Mingxue's words reached the crucial point, a rapid knock on the door interrupted Xuanyuan Mingxue. Jiang Liu'er glanced towards the door and told Xuanyuan Mingxue to rest before running to open it herself.

"Who is it?"

From the peephole, Jiang Liu'er looked out and saw an unfamiliar woman. The effect of the peep-eye magnifying glass made it difficult for Jiang Liu'er to distinguish the woman's appearance.

After asking, the woman outside the door seemed to be a little impatient. She replied with a "me" and knocked on the door.

"I'm just a girl, are you afraid I'll eat you? Hurry up and open the door." The woman outside the door was quite domineering. Jiang Liu'er furrowed her brows, but in the end, she still opened the door.

It was as a woman said. As a man, how could Jiang Liu'er be afraid of a woman?

Jiang Liu'er opened the door and saw the woman's face clearly. Her eyes were big and her nose was high, and her lips were small. If the score for her looks was 10 points, then this exquisite little woman's appearance would be at least 80%.

In addition to her shirt and tight jeans and sneakers, her freshness added a lot of luster to this beautiful woman.

"Beautiful lady, may I ask who you're looking for?"
