At the critical moment, Xie Zhan hugged Mingxiu and shouted to Ming's father, "Jump!"

If you don't abandon the car and run away now, there is only one way to die!

Although Ming's father had never experienced this, he understood the basic principles and without any hesitation, he took Ming's mother and followed Xie Zhan's command to jump out of the car and roll to the side.

He hugged Ming's mother and rolled around on the ground several times to relieve her strength, but even so, Ming's mother still let out a cry of pain.

Ming's father felt uncomfortable with the weight of a person on his body, but he still went to check on Ming's mother as soon as possible.

"How are you? Are you hurt?"

After being married for a lifetime, even if it was a blind marriage, for so many years, Ming's father had already regarded Ming's mother as the woman he would spend his whole life with, so naturally he showed all kinds of concern and pity.

But Ming's mother didn't care about the rare tenderness with her husband: "I'm fine, where is Xiu'er?"

She only has this daughter in her life, so she must not let anything happen to her!

Ming's father didn't know the situation between Mingxiu and Xie Zhan, but it was useless to worry now, "Xie Zhan is a capable man, and Xiu'er will definitely be safer with him than you and me. Don't worry, don't say anything, just in case

It would be troublesome if someone found out."

There was still endless worry in her heart, but Ming's mother knew that Ming's father's words did make sense, so she obeyed without making a sound and huddled in Ming's father's arms. The couple remained motionless, pretending to be plants.

As for Mingxiu and Xie Zhan, their situation is similar to them.

It's the same as pretending to be dead in the thick grass, but...

Mingxiu thought she touched her arm calmly, but she didn't look right when she came down, it seemed she was injured.

But saving his life was the most important thing now, so although the pain was excruciating, Mingxiu remained silent.

Seeing her small movements in his eyes, Xie Zhan's eyes flashed with appreciation.

Daughters of ordinary people are always timid and delicate. If they are injured, even if they don't complain, they can't help but cry out in pain. Mingxiu's tenacity proves that she is different from other women.

Stopping her rubbing her hands, Xie Zhan said: "Be patient for now, I will go to town early tomorrow morning. Ye Ziming has a good prescription for bruises. I will go back and prepare it and the pain will disappear in two days."

Unexpectedly, she was discovered by Xie Zhan despite being so careful. A slight blush flashed across Mingxiu's face, "I'm fine." Although she was embarrassed, she was also shaken by Xie Zhan's carefulness.

It was a bit awkward for the two of them to be so close. Mingxiu had nothing to say, "Have those people left?"

At this time, the eyes have become accustomed to the night and can capture the faint light in the darkness.

Xie Zhan shook his head slightly, and Mingxiu thought it was no.

"There's no movement, but we still have to be careful. If the other party fires a carbine, we won't be able to fight now."

I don’t know how damaged those guards are. If the damage is not much, you can try to fight hard, but...

Xie Zhan glanced at the woman in his arms. With such a burden, it was better not to confront her head-on.

Otherwise, if the sword has no eyes, how will he explain to Ming's father and Ming's mother?

Now Xie Zhan only thinks that his regard for Mingxiu stems from his kindness and the concern of Ming's father and mother for so many days.

If something happened to Mingxiu under his care, wouldn't it be repaying kindness with hatred?

Mingxiu said no more and shrank down to the grass, not wanting to lean on Xie Zhan's arms.

Although she was different from the women here who valued chastity, the smell of men in her breath made her very uncomfortable.

Speaking of which, this was the first time in her past life that she had such an intimate relationship with the opposite sex.

The two lay motionless for about half an hour without hearing any movement. Xie Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not forget to be cautious.

"Let's walk to that end slowly, don't get up in a hurry."

Mingxiu nodded clearly, wasn't she just crawling forward? She had also experienced military training, so this kind of thing was not difficult for her at all.

But she still overestimated her physical strength, and due to the injury on her arm, she soon became unable to move.

"Climb on me and I'll take you away."

As an expedient, Mingxiu knew that now was not the time to be shy, so she didn't hesitate.

Xie Zhan, on the other hand, felt the two soft masses on his back, and the roots of his ears were faintly red. Fortunately, it was late at night, and his back was turned to Mingxiu, so he would not be discovered. Otherwise, if he was teased now, Xie Zhan would not be sure.

Will I be as embarrassed and angry as those pretty girls?

One hour, two hours passed.

There was no movement in the night sky.

Mingxiu breathed a sigh of relief, "Is everything okay?"

She also wanted to find where her parents were hiding, so that those people would be quiet because they caught her parents.

It was so easy to show his kindness and sacrifice himself to save Xie Zhan. If he fell in love with his parents because of this, it would be a loss.

Xie Zhan listened attentively for a while and nodded in agreement with Mingxiu's words, "Go find your uncle and aunt. Don't make too much noise. The surrounding area is empty. If it gets louder, you can hear it from far away."

If someone had left and heard the sound and came back, wouldn't Mingxiu's injuries be in vain?

"Don't worry, I know."

Mingxiu nodded, starting from the place where the carriage was abandoned, and looking little by little in the direction where he remembered Ming's father and Ming's mother rolling away.

By this time the horses were dead, and they had to rely on only one pair of legs to get home.

It was not difficult to find Ming's father and Ming's mother. Just like Xie Zhan said, there was nothing around except vegetation. Mingxiu shouted softly, and basically everyone could hear movement.

Her call was not loud and could be heard nearby, but if it was far away, it would be lost in the wind.

"Is it Xiu'er?"

Just when Mingxiu was about to give up and look for another place, Ming's father's voice came out.

Looking at each other with Xie Zhan, the two of them headed towards the place where the sound came from.

"Dad, Mom, are you injured?"

Mingxiu's expression changed rapidly, she pushed aside the thick grass and stepped forward to check.

Xie Zhan had the same reaction. There was no bloody smell nearby, especially if he injured his bones when he fell.

After a while, I heard Ming's mother say a little embarrassedly: "I haven't been moving for too long, my body is numb..." So I couldn't move.

"..."

Mingxiu found it a little funny, but at the same time he was relieved.

He stepped forward to help Ming's father and mother up, and he was relieved when he saw that they were fine except for being a little awkward due to paralysis in their legs and feet.

When they were checking on Ming's father and mother, they were also checking on them.

Ming's mother raised and lowered her hands towards Mingxiu, and even though she endured it again and again, when Ming's mother touched the injured area, she couldn't help but change her breathing.

Mother and daughter had a heart-to-heart connection, Mingxiu reacted, and Ming's mother quickly realized that something was wrong with her daughter.

"Injured? Go to the doctor quickly!"

Ming's father heard the noise and said quickly: "I know where the doctor's house is. Let's go there right away. Xiu'er should be careful."

If Mingxiu hadn't refused to do so, he would have even wanted to carry his daughter on his back.

"I'm fine. I just stumbled a bit. I'll make some medicinal wine and rub it in tomorrow and it'll be fine."

"How can you tell whether it's serious or not? It's better to go to the hospital to see if it's serious." Ming's mother was still worried. Whose daughter felt sorry for her. Even if a horse passed by them just now, she wasn't afraid, she was just worried.

Mingxiu was discovered.

Now that the crisis has passed, her daughter is injured. If she doesn't hear the doctor's assurance, how can she rest assured?

"But now the town is closed. Even if we know where the doctor is, we can't get in."

Although it was said that they could enter the town overnight, all they needed was a little more money, but if someone saw the four of them looking so embarrassed, they would think something had happened.

Ming's father and Ming's mother didn't care, they were afraid of ruining Mingxiu's reputation!

"This is also..." Ming's mother was quite melancholy, what should we do?

"We're not far from Tubao Village. Why don't we go back first and use the light to see if it's serious? If it's too heavy, let's clean ourselves up and go to the village chief's house to borrow an ox cart before rushing to the town.

.”

After all, it's not a fatal emergency. It can only be delayed for three or four hours at most, and nothing serious will happen.

Although Ming's father is also worried about Mingxiu's situation, he is still reasonable.

He even made a plan. Although his family had no friendship with the village chief, after all, Mingxiu gave him a way to make money, and the village chief would still give it to him if he wanted to.

Now this was the best way, and Ming's mother stopped pestering her, nodded, and walked back with Ming's father on her side, helping Mingxiu.
