Chapter 56

Ji Jiu stood aside and thought for a long time. She thought that if they were hunted this way by enemies, Those people would definitely search the village below if they couldn't find anyone here. She made a sudden decision.

"Uh, do you guys need any help or not? I'm afraid these bad people will come again. If you haven't left here yet."

"My dear, how did you get here?" The old man who led the group whose subordinates were healing his wound looked at the thin girl in front of him in disbelief. He had passed through the Blood Sea and Sword Valley for decades. His words and aura were not like ordinary people.

"I came to pick mushrooms with several of my brothers. But I came to pick mushrooms in this area separately and then I heard the sound of fighting. I was curious so I just walked over to have a look. If you don't want help I'll beg you to leave first." Ji Jiu didn't care that the old man looked even slightly fierce or had a strong aura. She just wanted to do good deeds to make up for the past karma she had done to her family. Whatever she could do to help, she wanted to help others.

"How are you going to help us, Miss? Aren't you afraid that the bad guy will come and attack you and the people in your house?" Duan Yang was surprised that this girl wasn't afraid of him at all, when normal people, even military men, were afraid of him by up to four parts when talking.

"I'm not afraid of you. There are some martial artists in my house. They can protect me." Ji Jiu replied confidently. Even though she had never seen them before, she had never heard their walking sounds alone. It shows that they must be quite talented.

"Um, then can we bother you for a few days to rest and heal your wounds? We will leave quickly. I won't cause you any trouble." Duan Yang immediately decided. He was afraid that the forces chasing them would soon arrive. He still had to rush to send news to his two grandsons. Vice General Hai Wen was now determined to rebel. After his second grandson attacked the Hui Province in the past two weeks, he had now almost reached the Hui Province capital. It is expected that it will be seized within two weeks.

"Yes, you all hurry and follow me first. I will call the brothers home together." Ji Jiu hurriedly told them to follow her if she didn't tell the brothers first. They must have searched all over the mountain for her.

 The four guards took turns supporting the old general and followed the little girl. Ji Jiu half walked, half ran, afraid that the villain would catch up with him. Until reaching the shiitake mushroom forest She saw the four brothers who didn't know where to put them. Why were there so many mushrooms overflowing with them that her heart ached?

"Brother, let's hurry back. I found some injured people in the forest over there. I can take them back to the house to rest first." Ji Jiu hurriedly called the four men who were looking for a way to bring the overflowing mushrooms home. But I still can't figure it out.

"Miss, then we will take the mushrooms and collect them first. I'll come up and pick up the overflow again." Ji Fanrong, who felt sorry for the mushrooms, hurriedly informed his young lady. He was afraid that she would not allow him to come. So I have to tell you first.

"Okay, Brother Fan Rong. Finish sending me and the injured person. You and Brother Zhao Gu would come and collect a few of these mushrooms later. You don't have to come all together. There aren't many mushrooms left."

"Yes, young lady." Ji Fanrong and Ji Zhao Gu hurriedly accepted their young lady's words. As long as she brought them up again, that would be fine. They really liked to eat this mushroom. In the past, I used to do secret work for my boss. I just ate food and fish according to what I was born with. Now that I've come to live with you, They had gotten used to eating only the delicious food made by Aunt Qiao every day.

 Ji Wenting knew their young lady's personality. So he quietly ordered the three brothers not to talk much about the five people following them. They nodded knowingly to each other. along with being careful of the youngster who was half walking, half running back down the mountain. They were really afraid that the young lady's short legs would get tangled and cause her to fall. Sigh.

 In a hurry Ji Jiu didn't care what other people thought. She walked quickly down the mountain and reached her house in less than an hour. From the beginning it took more than an hour and a half.

 Ji Jiu had the sick person stay in the guest room of her house first. She also needed to discuss the matter with Butler Kang and Aunt Qiao. This matter was something to be careful about when she brought a stranger who was wanted to kill her to stay.

 Ji Jiu said that the five new guests would be accommodated. Then she took the four brothers and sat them in front of the house under a tree.

"Brother Fan Rong and Brother Zhao Gu. Pick up the mushrooms for Auntie Qiao and then continue up the mountain. So you won't come down too late."

"Yes, Miss, we will hurry and return."

 As the two men walked away behind their backs, Ji Jiu turned and told Ji Baohu to go find Uncle Kang and Aunt Qiao to meet her. Ji Wenting saw the younger siblings leaving, so he immediately asked Miss.

"Miss, are you sure you want to help those people?"

"Um, I saw them now. If you don't help, you'll seem a bit callous. Brother Wenting, do you have any advice for me?"

"Uh, if you don't mind me asking. Can I please tell you about the time you met them?"

 Ji Jiu nodded to Ji Wenting and told him everything that had caused her to meet those people. Ji Wenting assessed the situation and saw that this matter was no small matter.

"Miss, I think it would be a good idea to let them hide in the basement while they recover. I'm afraid that someone will come and search our house. From the looks of it, Those people definitely shouldn't be ordinary people."

"Alright, I'll hand this matter over to Brother Wenting. I didn't expect that someone would come and search my house. Don't tell anyone else right now. and let no one besides you four Uncle Kang and Aunt Qiao knew more about the matter. They waited for nightfall before taking the lantern and taking them down to the basement to rest. A bed shouldn't be easy for them to find. Just take old mattresses that you don't use and pile them up for them to rest on."

"I accept you, young lady."

 Uncle Kang and Aunt Qiao arrived just after Ji Jiu had briefed Ji Wenting. She had Brother Wenting explain the whole matter on her behalf, because Uncle Kang had to provide them with new clothes and other necessary items. As for Aunt Qiao, You have to take care of food for them.

Legs with medicine to treat wounds. Ji Jiu will have Brother Bao Hu and Brother Fan Rong go to the district to inform Boss Yuan of their condition tomorrow.

 They talked for almost two hours. Uncle Kang and Aunt Qiao did not object to Miss's decision. They hurried to follow orders as it was already getting late. Uncle Kang took the money Ji Jiu gave him to buy 10 things. Immediately, she had him buy them fine clothes and other necessities that she couldn't think of.

 Aunt Qiao asks Ji Jiu to go buy some more fresh food. Ji Jiu then gave Aunt Qiao an additional ten taels of money. If there was anything left, the two of them would help pay it off first. After receiving the money and preparing the donkey car Uncle Kang and Aunt Qiao also left the house. The workers had not finished work yet, so they looked suspiciously at the people in the house who had left before dinner. But I didn't dare to ask.
