Chapter 28 28 Night Thief

Chapter 28 28. Night thief

Li Yuan felt like he was dying, his consciousness was blurred, his forehead was burning, and he coughed violently.

Auntie Wang helped to boil hot water.

Mrs. Yan wiped him clean, changed him into clean clothes, and let him lie on the bed.

There was no doctor in Xiaomofang, so Mrs. Yan gave Auntie Wang a big coin and asked her to go to the county to invite one.

After a long time, the county doctor came.

But he didn't say anything or sit down when he came. He just stood there impatiently, as if he was about to leave.

Auntie Wang saw this and hurriedly dragged Mrs. Yan to the side to talk to her.

Mrs. Yan realized that the county doctor didn't want to go to a place like Xiaomofang. Auntie Wang said that the consultation fee was two big coins before they were willing to come.

Mrs. Yan hurriedly held another big coin to the doctor.

Auntie Wang looked at him distressedly

Two big coins, if you save them, they can be enough for half a month. Why is the consultation fee so expensive?

The doctor sat down after seeing the money, looked at him for a while and said, "It's not a disease, just excessive hunger and lack of blood. Moreover, it seems that he may have encountered something and was in a state of excessive fright.

Since he is a hunter, he must have encountered a tiger or a blind bear in the mountains, which is why he is like this?"

Madam Yan was stunned.

Tigers and blind bears?

My husband has tamed tigers, so why would he be afraid of tigers?

But what did he see that frightened him too much?

She remembered what Li Yuan said that night about going to explore the mountains farther away, and suddenly a sense of horror rose in her heart.

There is no shortage of supernatural and mysterious stories in the countryside.

Madam Yan suppressed this speculation and asked: "Then, doctor, what should we do now?"

"First use rice porridge to nourish the body, and then take supplements when the body recovers."

"Then what medicine should be prescribed?"

"His condition is quite serious, and ordinary medicine is ineffective. If you want to treat it, you have to use some good medicine."

"How much does it cost?"

"This medicine has the best quality.

But there are also special ones for warriors who have entered the level. It is a bit expensive, but the effect is also good."

"How much?" Madam Yan looked at the doctor eagerly.

The doctor glanced at her and said, "This is the best medicine, three coins for one set. If you want to be cured, you have to boil ten sets."

"What about the one with better effect?"

The doctor smiled, with some contempt in his expression, as if saying "Can you afford it?"

But he remembered that this family was a hunter and might have some extra money, so he said, "This is for the warriors of the first rank, one set costs 12 coins, but it works quickly, you can try a few sets first."

Aunt Wang muttered, "12 coins? This... This is more than one or two silver coins. Who can afford this disease? Are you bullying us because we don't understand the market and deliberately quoting a higher price?"

The doctor felt a little guilty, but then he quickly said in an impatient tone, "That is for the warriors of the first rank, and it works well. You guys should stop prescribing medicine."

He got up in a hurry and was about to leave.

He didn't want to stay in this broken place for a moment.

Mrs. Yan glanced at the doctor, and then at Li Yuan lying on the bed.

Before, Li Yuan had accompanied Uncle Wang to deliver goods to the county restaurant several times, and the family did have some money saved.

But both she and Li Yuan knew that this money could not be easily exposed.

But it has come to this point

What if Yuan Ge'er didn't make it because of her one thought?

She looked at Li Yuan again, forced a smile and said, "Doctor, let's buy it! Can we buy it cheaper?"

The doctor said, "Which one should we buy?"

Mrs. Yan gritted her teeth and said, "Let's buy the best one."

"The best one?" The doctor stared at her with suspicion, and then said, "If you really want it, come with five prescriptions first, and I will charge you 58 coins, which is two coins cheaper."

"How about 55 coins?"

The doctor said, "Do you want it?"

"It's cheaper."

"If you don't want it, I'll leave."

Mrs. Yan said helplessly, "Yes."

"Where's the money?"

"Yes."

Afterwards, Mrs. Yan still took the money to Aunt Wang, and then Aunt Wang left her two children at Li Yuan's house, called two men from the village, and then went to the county together.

In the evening, Aunt Wang came back with five prescriptions.

Mrs. Yan had cooked corn porridge early.

The two children had already eaten the porridge clean, and even licked the bowl.

Seeing Aunt Wang coming back, Lady Yan served her another bowl of porridge, and then went to boil medicine herself.

The two women were busy for a while, until the second watch, they helped Li Yuan drink the medicine, and then lied down peacefully.

Lady Yan opened the door, sent Aunt Wang and her two children to the fence, and said: "Aunt Wang, you have worked hard."

Aunt Wang saw that she looked sad, and comforted her: "Don't think too much, it's always a good thing for a man to come back. Unlike my wife. Hey."

After Aunt Wang left, Lady Yan closed the door tightly, put the kitchen knife and clothes beater by the bed, and took out a bag of lime powder from under the bed and put it away. This lime powder was secretly obtained in the workshop after Zhang Shisi's night attack.

Then, Lady Yan took off her clothes and trousers, untied the seal on her chest, and climbed onto the bed.

The doctor diagnosed that Yuan Ge'er was just deficient in qi and blood, so it was still okay to sleep together.

In the darkness, seeing her man sleeping facing inward, Madam Yan raised her hand, gently wrapped her slender fingers around his waist, hugged him from behind, and then they clung to each other like two shrimps.

Li Yuan did not sleep well this time. The medicinal properties of the entry-level warrior spread rapidly in his body, driving away the coldness in his body.

In the middle of the night, his whole body was cold.

Even wrapped in a quilt, he was still cold.

The cold breath from the ancient village in the deep mountains was emitting and spreading.

Lady Yan was awakened by the cold, and she looked like her own man, and she couldn't help but turn pale.

She gritted her teeth, hurriedly relieved herself again, turned herself into a big heater, and stuck to the man's arms to warm him.

Li Yuan was dreaming that he was in the ice hell, and suddenly. There was a sun in this hell.

He desperately hugged the sun and squeezed the sun to absorb the temperature from this only heat source.

The next day, he woke up.

Li Yuan was sweating all over, and felt like he was alive.

Lady Yan was busy cooking meat porridge for him.

Smoke curled up, footsteps came and went, and the figure of the pretty village girl Yan came here and there from time to time. The earthen house was full of the breath of life.

This breath brought Li Yuan back to reality.

But his heart was heavy.

The mountain villa in the deep mountains that looked like a corpse, and the strange sound of the door opening, all gave him a strong sense of suffocation of terror.

This world is very, very scary, and it is completely different from what he thought at first.

If he hadn't forced a new consciousness into his mind through the unorthodox way of "adding points to gain memory", he would have died on the road.

"Sister Yan."

"Brother Yuan, are you feeling better?"

"Much better."

Li Yuan paused and said in a deep voice: "You can't go to the mountains."

Madam Yan fell silent and said: "Then don't go, you should take good care of yourself."

Li Yuan responded and glanced at the data beside him.

Without a bow, his stats actually changed from "9~10" to "4(9)~5(10)".

It seems that being injured will reduce his strength.

He looked into the distance again. On the way back, he lost his bow, arrows, and hatchet.

No matter what, he should take care of his body first.

This time, at least he did not gain nothing. He saw a horrible corner of this world.

Li Yuan clenched his fists.

Since these horrible things are hidden in the deep mountains and old forests, there is only one way left: make money and move to a safer residential area with better security.

Night fell.

The moon was dark and the wind was high.

Li Yuan lay in bed for a day, and his stats changed from "4(9)~5(10)" to "5(9)~6(10)".

Obviously, his body was not seriously injured. This recovery was very fast.

At midnight, he and Lady Yan had a gentle and routine lovemaking and rested.

But while sleeping, Li Yuan's eyes suddenly opened.

He was a warrior of the first rank, even if he was injured, he was still strong, so his five senses were better than those of ordinary people.

At this time, he clearly heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the door.

The footsteps stopped in front of the window for a while.

Li Yuan could even see the shadow of the face lying in front of the window through the oil-paper window.

The face seemed to be looking in through the window gap.

After looking for a while, the face retreated, and a finger gently pressed on the oil paper.

With a soft "pop" sound, a hole was poked in the oil paper of the window.

Then, a hollow thin tube stretched in.

From the thin tube, a stream of dazzling smoke blew out

Li Yuan's face turned cold, holding his breath, and at the same time pulled the quilt and gently covered Yan Yu.

Yan Yu woke up immediately, but the man covered his mouth.

A moment later, a soft "do" sound came from the front of the door, the wooden door bolt was picked open, and a black shadow rushed in.

Li Yuan then looked at the dim moonlight, but the shadow was holding a kitchen knife with a cold glow in his hand, and a "1~2" was floating above his head.

As soon as the shadow entered the house, he went straight to the closed box in the corner of Li Yuan's house.

He opened the box, reached into it, and was about to grope, but suddenly felt something was wrong.

But before he turned his head, he felt his head was grabbed by something.

In the darkness, Li Yuan grabbed the shadow's head with five fingers and threw it down suddenly.

Boom! !

The shadow fell down and his head hit the muddy ground with a "bang", which made him dizzy and frightened.

The shadow was so angry that he grabbed the kitchen knife in his hand and chopped back in a hurry.

But before he could make a move.

Ka! !

A huge force was transmitted to the bend of his arm.

There was a crisp "ka" sound from the arm, which was not broken, but dislocated.

And the kitchen knife also flew out.

The shadow screamed.
