Noble Lady

Chapter 301 Mu Qiang

"The bandits who broke into the county government office have been apprehended. Everything is fine now!"

Xue Chenyu knocked on the door and shouted this.

Then, the warehouse door opened wide.

Xue Luoyan was walking in front with a gun in his hand. He looked out and saw that there were only Xue Chenyu, Du Jingyuan, and Fang Rui.

No bandits!

"Sister! We succeeded!"

"Yeah, it worked."

Xue Luoyan turned around and shouted to everyone in the warehouse: "Hurry, everything is fine, you can come out now!"

What followed was a burst of cheers.

At this time, it will be dawn.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and went out in groups of three or four to take a look.

But in the dim morning light, he saw several corpses lying unevenly on the street in front of the county government office.

Some were bandits, and some were civilians.

Bloodstained.

The smell of blood is naturally not so pleasant.

Most people have never seen such a scene. At most, they have seen chickens and pigs being slaughtered. They couldn't stand it and vomited.

"vomit……"

But they only ate some clear porridge in the past two days, and there was nothing in their stomachs, so they could only vomit out jaundice water.

Xue Chenyu's stomach was also churning, but she had experienced life and death after all, and had seen such bloody scenes on the way here, so she became much more indifferent.

He subconsciously covered Xue Luoyan's eyes.

"Sister, I'm fine. You forgot, I'm not an ordinary girl."

Xue Chenyu sighed, "Then you are also a little girl."

Du Jingyuan almost vomited, but when she saw the most important people around her were there, she relaxed.

"Xue Xiaoyu, it's a good thing you're here because this group of vicious criminals were defeated here so easily. Otherwise, we don't know what to do." Du Jingyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's not that it's easy, but they underestimated the enemy." Xue Chenyu said solemnly.

"That's also your credit. I will never forget your kindness." Du Jingyuan said excitedly.

After she reminded them, everyone reacted.

If it weren't for Miss Xue's quick response in the middle of the night, protecting them all and directing the soldiers to fight the bandits, they would probably be dead like the people on the street.

"Thank you Miss Xue!"

"Miss Xue, you saved us again!"

"Miss Xue is truly a living Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering!"

Once someone starts kneeling and kowtowing, there is no way to stop them.

Xue Chenyu's voice was slightly chilled, like the fresh autumn breeze. "If you all appreciate my kindness, please keep this matter in your heart and keep it a secret. That would be the greatest favor you can do me."

"Why?" someone asked.

But someone else immediately said, "Miss Xue isn't married yet, are you afraid of people talking about you? Let's just not talk about it. Let's keep it a secret."

"Yes, yes, it's good for us to know. When we return home, we will definitely offer you a longevity tablet."

The style of painting gradually became distorted.

But Xue Chenyu could only ask them to keep their mouths shut, but she couldn't stop them from talking about the immortality tablet.

Also very distressed.

"Da da da……"

In the morning light, the sound of horse hooves is crisp.

Yumei suddenly pointed to the distance and shouted, "It's Sister Qiuhua!"

Qiuhua?

Xue Chenyu took a few steps forward.

Sure enough, I saw that the horse, which was moving slower and slower, was carrying... no, two people.

The one sitting there was Qiuhua, but she seemed to be in a bad mood and could hardly open her eyes.

There was a person tied to the horse's back, and judging from her figure, she should be a woman.

Yumei and Fang Rui hurried forward to hold the horses.

"Girl, it's Sister Qiuhua and Sister Dongyue!" Yumei shouted.

Xue Chenyu's heart skipped a beat.

Du Jingyuan also stepped forward and hurriedly tried to help.

"Miss, I brought Dongyue back to you." Qiuhua's clothes were torn, and there were wounds and bloodstains on her body.

But he only had time to say this before he fell on Du Jingyuan's shoulder.

Dongyue on the horse seemed to be unconscious and was carried away by Fang Rui.

Yumei and Du Jingyuan hurriedly helped Qiuhua in.

Xue Chenyu ordered Yuzhu, "Go and invite Doctor Zhou and Doctor Li."

The others no longer cared about their discomfort and ran into the county government office to help boil water and chop firewood.

After half a day of fighting, the firewood was almost used up.

……

"Ma'am, how are they?"

Dongyue and Qiuhua were both placed in Xue Chenyu's room, which was the largest of her rooms.

Of course, this was also Situ Zhen's preferential treatment for her, but it was more convenient to take care of them by putting them together at this time.

"Don't worry, Miss Xue. These two people seem to be in danger, but their conditions are actually not bad." Doctor Li said.

"This girl who suffered injuries actually had relatively minor ones, and many of the injuries on her wrists and arms looked like they were self-inflicted. Most of the time, she fainted due to exhaustion."

"She hasn't sustained any damage to her internal organs. I'll prescribe some blood-regulating medicine for her. She'll wake up after she's had enough rest."

"The other is that he inhaled an overdose of drugs. He needs to be given a supplemental medicine to drink. He can only wake up after the drugs in his system are completely eliminated."

Xue Chenyu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Doctor Li paused, then continued, "But the girl who was drugged might be in danger."

"What do you mean?" Xue Chenyu's heart was in his throat.

Doctor Li and Doctor Zhou looked at each other.

Doctor Zhou said, "This girl inhaled too much of the drug, and she inhaled it for a long time. This will likely result in her being... unclear even if she wakes up."

"How could this happen?" Yuzhu looked at Dongyue in surprise. She was fine and didn't seem to be injured.

She used to be such a proud person. If she lost her mind, how sad would she be if she knew it?

"Is there no other way?" Xue Chenyu asked tentatively with hope.

The two doctors looked at each other again and said uncertainly, "... Let's try the medicine first. If we can get rid of the drug's effects as soon as possible, there might be a chance to regain consciousness."

Just have the chance.

Xue Chenyu and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuzhu and Yumei urged the two doctors to prescribe medicine quickly, very anxiously.

Qiuhua is back, but Xue Chenyu's confusion is even deeper.

Yesterday she asked Qiuhua to go to Su's Grain Store, but she brought Dongyue back.

Dongyue and her group should have disappeared together. Now only Dongyue was brought back by her. Where are the others?

We can only ask Qiuhua these questions after she wakes up.

However, Situ Zhen left suddenly yesterday, and her father arrived today when the bandits entered the city. Combined with the various behaviors of those bandits, she seemed to understand what Situ Zhen and her father were doing.

However, the details can only be confirmed after interrogating the bandits.

Xue Chenyu naturally did not have the right to interrogate the bandits, but she believed that when Situ Zhen and her father came back, they would naturally give her an explanation.

……

While the doctor was treating Qiuhua and Dongyue, Fang Rui also took his men to check the bodies on the street.

There were more than a dozen people, five or six of whom were civilians, all men, who were probably captured by bandits to lead the way.

Those who disobeyed were killed, and those who obeyed were also killed in the end.

There were seven or eight more, all bandits.

Bandits live in the mountains all year round, and they practice martial arts. The calluses on their hands from holding knives all year round are completely different from the calluses on the hands of ordinary people who work, and these are easy to identify.

"Eight bandit bodies were found on the street, plus forty-eight who broke into the county government office and were either killed or captured alive, a total of fifty-six."

After Fang Rui finished counting, he closed the roster and handed it to Xue Chenyu, "Miss Xue, this is the roster."

"You're quite quick." Xue Chenyu just smiled and didn't take it.

Seeing that she had no intention of taking over, Fang Rui took the roster back.

"It wasn't me who was quick, it was your subordinates, Miss Xue. In just a few moments, all the bandits in the prison confessed."

Xue Chenyu: “Hmm?”

Fang Rui said helplessly, "...It was Miss Xue Er. She said that if they told her everything, she would help them find a doctor if she was happy. If they didn't, she would not be polite."

Luoluo?

Xue Chenyu subconsciously looked around.

Only to find that the little girl had disappeared again without me noticing.

"She ran into the prison and no one stopped her?"

Fang Rui touched his nose and said guiltily: "...Everyone has heard about the story of Miss Xue Er who shot a bandit with one shot. Naturally..." He would not stop her.

The implication is that people admire the strong and worship heroes.

But what surprised Fang Rui the most was Xue Chenyu. How could she remain so calm?

In a situation like that in the middle of the night, she just frowned and let someone fight back.

Xue Chenyu: “…”
