Chapter 295 Escape
Xie Wanning stood there, stunned, a strong sense of loss welling up in her heart, and everything around her seemed to become quiet.
"Mo Xuan..." Xie Wan Ning saw the bloodstains extending along a path, and hope instantly ignited in her heart.
She ran after the trail of blood and finally found Mo Xuan cowering in the depths of a small alley.
She walked step by step to his side to check his injuries.
His entire body was covered in bruises, and the sword wounds from before had reopened, with blood gushing out from the wounds, filling the entire alley with a strong smell of blood.
Mo Xuan's face was deathly pale, his lips were bloodless, and even his breathing was very slow and disordered.
"Mo Xuan, hang in there. I'll take you to a doctor right now." Xie Wan Ning anxiously helped Mo Xuan up and started walking towards the alley entrance.
Mo Xuan shook his head and said, "No need, my injury is too serious, it will cost a lot of money."
"Foolish! Money can be earned back, but life is gone forever. I will heal your injuries, you must hold on. Also, who was the blind fool who attacked you?" Xie Wan Ning paused, suddenly remembering that Mo Xuan was also blind, and wondered if her words would upset him.
Mo Xuan didn't seem to care much. He hesitated and said, "I don't know. I only heard... someone say that I was blocking their way, and they... punched and kicked me. The leader seemed to be called... Gouzi."
"It's him again." Xie Wanning clenched her fists, anger flashing in her eyes.
However, she heard Mo Xuan's breathing on her shoulder grow weaker and weaker, and his body felt cold.
"Don't fall asleep, Mo Xuan!" Xie Wan Ning shouted anxiously, her voice filled with worry.
Mo Xuan didn't speak, and slowly closed his eyes.
"Don't sleep, let me tell you a story." Xie Wanning reached out and patted Mo Xuan, her tone becoming somewhat subdued.
Mo Xuan vaguely heard Xie Wan Ning's voice. He forced himself to stay awake.
"I'm going to tell you a story about a child."
"The child has been an orphan since she was young. She wanders in different places and meets different people. There are good people and bad people. The child is a bit unlucky. Those who are good to her will leave, while those who hurt her will always be there."
"The bully was called Big Dog, and he had many friends. But the child was all alone. They would beat the child and steal his money, and this went on for a very long time."
"Until one day, the child was cornered by a big dog in a bamboo forest, where there was a large pit. The dog walked step by step toward the child, who had nowhere to retreat and was pushed hard into the pit."
"When she fell to the bottom of the pit, the child cried in pain, but her legs hurt terribly and no one helped her. The child cried for a long time until she fainted from exhaustion. When she woke up again, her legs were miraculously healed."
“She was very happy, and then it took her three days to climb out of the bottom of the pit. From then on, she refused to trust anyone or get close to anyone.”
"Until one day, she encountered another child in the bamboo forest who was about to fall into a large pit. She knew that it would hurt a lot, so she stopped the child."
“The child helped another child, and she was happy because the pain she had experienced had not happened to the other child. Also, she felt she could trust that child because they were so alike.”
"Alright, we've arrived at the clinic. Mo Xuan, you'll recover soon." Xie Wan Ning carried Mo Xuan into the clinic, panting. Hearing his breathing, her heart finally settled down.
Mo Xuan listened to the whole story in a daze, but his heart was trembling.
Is there anything he can do for her?
Day two.
Mo Xuan got up and was about to get out of bed when he bumped into Xie Wan Ning, who was fast asleep beside him.
"You're awake?" Xie Wanning rubbed her eyes, yawned, and looked at Mo Xuan with concern: "How are you feeling?"
"I'm fine," Mo Xuan said with a smile, enduring the pain as he got up.
Xie Wanning immediately noticed, and supporting Mo Xuan, she said with displeasure, "Don't push yourself. You're so badly injured, you need to rest properly."
"But I can't..."
"No. Mo Xuan, you're not feeling well right now, you need to rest. Besides, don't push yourself, I'm here for you!" Xie Wan Ning chuckled, helping Mo Xuan lie down.
After about five days, Mo Xuan had finally recovered enough to get out of bed.
Xie Wanning led him to the street, tugged at his sleeve, and gave him directions.
"Mo Xuan, this sweet cake is delicious, you should try it." Xie Wan Ning handed the sweet cake to Mo Xuan and continued walking forward.
Along the way, Xie Wanning bought a lot of food. However, most of it was sweets.
Mo Xuan had never eaten sweets before, so he really liked them.
"Wan Ning, won't it cost a lot of money?"
"It's alright, you've just recovered, so I'll buy you some to help you recover." Xie Wanning continued to buy a lot of food without any hesitation, and said cheerfully, "Besides, I sold the Spirit Gathering Grass to the cultivators before, and they gave me a lot of money."
Mo Xuan lowered his head, remembering the cultivator who had hurt him.
"Wan Ning, what is your view on cultivators?"
Xie Wanning was puzzled by this strange question, but she still answered truthfully: "Cultivators are very powerful. They all have very powerful techniques and they also protect the weak. When I grow up, I want to become a cultivator too, so that no one will dare to bully me."
Her voice carried a hint of anticipation.
Mo Xuan smiled unconsciously. If he became a cultivator, he would definitely protect Wan Ning.
As the two were chatting, a group of uninvited guests suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Hey, isn't this Xie Wanning and Little Blind Man? What are you doing on my turf?" Gouzi and his brothers blocked Xie Wanning and Mo Xuan's way, their eyes filled with hostility: "You actually have money to buy so many things, why don't you hand over the money obediently?"
Xie Wanning stood in front of Mo Xuan, secretly observing the people around them.
Those people all walked with their heads down, not daring to look at them at all.
Dogzi had been roaming around Qianyang City for many years, committing all sorts of evil deeds, so he naturally had a certain deterrent effect, and ordinary people dared not provoke him.
"Don't think about it!"
Xie Wanning's gaze darkened. She threw the pastries in her hand and quickly ran away with Mo Xuan.
"Chase me!"
The dog quickly led a group of people to give chase.
"Help! Help!" Xie Wanning cried out, but the people around her ignored her.
Xie Wanning had already anticipated this outcome. She quickened her pace, but heard the footsteps behind her getting closer and closer.
Forget it, I can't take another beating today. It's just a pity that my money was taken away again. And then there's Mo Xuan, his injuries haven't fully healed yet.
Xie Wanning stopped abruptly, turned around to face the enemy, her eyes filled with determination.
Let's fight them!
Just as the dogs' fists and feet were about to land, a white figure appeared in front of Xie Wanning. He held a celestial sword and shouted sharply, "What are you doing?"
Upon seeing that it was a cultivator, the dogs immediately turned and ran away.
Xie Wanning quickly pulled Mo Xuan away.
The white-robed cultivator sheathed his sword. He turned around but didn't see the girl from before. Instead, he heard his disciples shouting.
"Master, why did you suddenly run away? My junior brothers and sisters and I can't catch up with you." Meng Qingyue wiped his sweat and looked at Lin Xuanjin in confusion.
Lin Xuanjin simply chuckled and said, "I just saw injustice and decided to help. Let's go, everything's fine now."
Lin Xuanjin led his disciples away, but the girl's image and the way she had resolutely faced the thugs just now kept replaying in his mind. She seemed so familiar. If he had the chance, he really hoped to see that girl again.
not far away.
Xie Wanning asked breathlessly, "Mo Xuan, are you alright?"
"I am fine."
"That's good."
Xie Wanning began to organize the things she had just bought, checking to see if anything was missing.
"Found it." Xie Wanning looked at Mo Xuan and said excitedly, "Mo Xuan, hold out your hand, I have a gift for you."
Mo Xuan obediently reached out, and something cold landed in his palm.
