Kuaiwen: I earn a pension by breaking through the game

Chapter 267 The Bride Dedicated to the Mountain God (57)

At this point, Jiang Qiuchen's heart was completely filled with shock. She had never thought that the other party had such a past.

"Does it hurt?"

Wen Rushi was immersed in his own memories and didn't react for a while.

"what?"

"I mean, it must have been painful during that time as a medicine man."

I thought my heart had long been dead and would no longer be easily disturbed by those distorted years.

But now, after Jiang Qiuchen's concerned words, the sealed area showed signs of loosening, and emotional fluctuations became greater.

Wen Rushi sobbed twice, trying her best to suppress herself, but her bloodshot eyes revealed her fragility.

"It hurts, but it's over now."

"After I faked my death and escaped from Medicine King Valley, I wandered forward all the way."

"People from Medicine King Valley would go out from time to time to look for suitable medicine men. On the one hand, I was afraid that they would find me again. On the other hand, I felt that being a woman would have many restrictions and inconveniences, so I simply disguised myself as a man and used my brother's name."

"I stumbled out of the area where Medicine King Valley was located all by myself. It was not until I entered Lingzhou that I dared to relax a little."

"I never thought that I would get into trouble with people from Lingxiang Palace just two days after arriving in Lingzhou. I also met you and Gu Xiao by accident. It was also fate."

Jiang Qiuchen freed his hands and picked up some more wood chips to add to the fire. The fire burned even more vigorously, making people want to get closer.

"I didn't expect you to have such a tortuous experience. Fortunately, you have escaped and are far away from that harmful place."

"Not only that, you also have good medical skills. You can help others get rid of their illnesses, and you can also fill your stomach with your own abilities."

A look of relief appeared on Wen Rushi's face. When she was suffering, she had thought about giving up her life countless times.

But she crawled out of a pile of dead bodies, and if God doesn't want to take her away, that means there is still a place in this world that needs her.

So she tried her best to learn medical skills secretly, like a rat that fears the light, shuttling back and forth in the corners of the library.

Fortunately, she was not only interested in these things, but also possessed extraordinary talents. With the help of the medical skills collected in Yaowang Valley, she was able to learn a lot without a teacher.

"Ayan, are you... still planning to continue pretending to be a man?"

When Wen Yan suddenly heard this name, he felt as if he was in another world.

When she was forced to take poison in Yaowang Valley and thrown into the wilderness, she died as the Wen Yan she once was.

The one who survived was Wen Rushi.

But no one knows better than Wen Yan who she is.

When Jiang Qiuchen saw Wen Yan remained silent, he knew that she must be confused and didn't know how to make a decision.

"Ah Yan, look, you have already reached the territory of Lingzhou. You don't have to be afraid here. We have people protecting us!"

"Let's not talk about anything else about Gu Xiao. He is a very loyal friend. If the people from Medicine King Valley dare to mess around, we will drive them out in a minute."

"Besides, you still have me by your side. You saw me teach those scoundrels a lesson a few days ago. I can kill them with one punch. You don't have to worry about the minions. I can protect you!"

As Jiang Qiucheng spoke, he stood up and wrote with exaggerated movements and funny expressions. His vivid appearance made Wen Yan laugh so hard that she couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Hey! You laughed! That's great!"

"Ayan, you look very pretty when you smile. Although I haven't seen you in women's clothes, I think you must look even better!"

Jiang Qiuchen has a sweet mouth and never hesitates when praising others.

Looking at Jiang Qiuchen's sparkling eyes, Wen Yan touched behind his ears a little embarrassedly.

If she was not forced by the current situation, she would not want to dress up as a man. In her heart, she is a woman.

Now I am trapped in a shell and it is really depressing.

"Of course I trust you and Gu Xiao. If I get into trouble, you will definitely not turn a blind eye."

"Besides, I have escaped for quite some time. The people in Medicine King Valley are obsessed with medicine and poison making. They don't really care about the life or death of a little guinea pig like me."

"If the Valley Master hadn't been displeased by my secret study of medical skills, I'm afraid he wouldn't bother to spend any more energy on a medicine man like me."

"They are very arrogant and proud. I don't think they will believe that I have mastered so many pharmacological and medical skills. Even if they hear me again, they will probably just think I am someone with the same name."

"The world is so big, how can they cover the sky with one hand?"

After settling down completely in Lingzhou, Wen Yan was no longer as frightened as he was when he was wandering before, and he had fewer worries in his heart.

With the help and support from Jiang Qiuchen and Gu Xiao, she was no longer afraid of the people from Yaowang Valley.

Jiang Qiuchen was very happy to see that Wen Yan had completely walked out of the haze of the past.

"That's great! In that case, why don't you restore your identity?"

"No need to borrow the names of others, just be yourself and be Wen Yan again."

Although he was not afraid of Medicine King Valley at the moment, Wen Yan was worried about another thing.

"Acheng, it's not that I don't want to, but it's hard for women to survive in this world."

"You've seen that the doctors in those clinics are all elderly, so the young ones have to wait. Not to mention that even the apprentices who help out are all men, so women don't even have the opportunity to learn from them."

"A few days ago, we set up a stall on the street to provide free medical treatment. Passers-by saw that I was young and were reluctant to come up to me for consultation. But have you ever thought that if I presented myself as a woman, not only would no one come to see me for treatment, but it would also cause a lot of rumors."

It seems that this matter has troubled Wen Yan for a long time. The sad expression that had finally dissipated reappeared on his face after this matter was mentioned.

"It may not be a big deal if one person says one thing, but if everyone says one thing, or ten or a hundred people say one thing, then we cannot bear it."

"When the mouth opens and closes, there is no sword, but it hurts people very much."

"We have finally gained some reputation by providing free medical treatment in the countryside. If I return to being a woman, won't all this be wasted?"

"You have worked so hard to climb mountains and cross rivers with me. I can't have what I have today without your help. I don't want to bring you trouble because of myself."

Looking at Wen Yan's helpless eyes, Jiang Qiuchen responded with a firm look.

"I walk with you in the countryside, assist you, help those poor families, and restore the health of those suffering from diseases. This is a good thing in itself, so how can it be hard work?"

"From the beginning to the end, I followed you voluntarily. How can I be implicated?"
