The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Becomes a Disciple of Yue Buqun

Seeing this scene, a smile appeared on the young man's face, but due to his pale face, he looked frail.

At this time, a woman came over from not far away. Judging from the mud on her body and the tools in her hands, she must have just returned from farm work.

The woman opened the gate and saw the young man. She was shocked. She quickly put down her things and ran over to take the basin from the young man. She asked, "My benefactor, why are you out? Didn't the doctor say that you should rest well?"

The young man smiled and said, "I've been lying in bed for too long, so I came out to move around. I thought I'd trouble you to take care of me during this period, so I'll do what I can."

The woman's eyes turned red when she heard that. She said, "What are you talking about, benefactor? If you hadn't rescued me from those bandits' stronghold, I might never have come back in my life."

The woman continued, "My benefactor, I saw you lying on the ground covered in blood. I don't know who hurt you like this, but you are a good man who fights for justice. Those who hurt you must be bad people. They will not die well!"

The woman looked indignant.

The young man was Jiang Ning.

He was seriously injured and left the bamboo forest. When he arrived near the village, he could no longer hold on and fell unconscious. He happened to meet this woman, who rescued him.

A drink and a peck have their own destiny.

If Jiang Ning had not met this woman after he fell into a coma but someone else, he would probably have died long ago.

When Jiang Ning was about to die, he met the person he had once saved. Perhaps it was God's arrangement that he should not die.

The woman brought him back when she saw him lying on the road covered in blood. In order to save him, the woman ran to the county town and knelt in every pharmacy before she invited a doctor to the village to treat him. Later, it was the woman's careful care that brought him back from the brink of death.

In order to save him, the woman sold everything she could in her house.

Fortunately, Jiang Ning survived in the end. Even the doctor who treated him called it a miracle. He said that if someone else had such an injury, they would have died long ago, but Jiang Ning was able to be saved.

Jiang Ning was also quite moved when he heard this.

He saved the woman in the mountain village, and she also saved Jiang Ning's life.

"Are you hungry, benefactor? I will light a fire and cook for you."

The woman entered the house with a basin, and soon smoke began to rise.

Jiang Ning sat down on a stone in the yard to bask in the sun.

He has been rescued and his life is not in danger, but his injuries are too severe for him to recover quickly. He must recuperate for a period of time. During this time, he will temporarily stay with the woman.

Changliu Village is located in Shandong, and is a village around Jinan Prefecture. Jiang Ning rescued the woman in one of the mountain strongholds when he was raiding the mountain strongholds.

This woman was a villager of this village. She was abducted when people from that mountain stronghold broke into the village to rob half a year ago.

She originally had a husband, but he was killed by the bandits. Her father-in-law could not accept the blow and fell ill. He passed away not long after, leaving behind her mother-in-law and her two-year-old son. When the woman came back, her mother-in-law had also died of illness due to overwork. Now she and her son are left to depend on each other.

The woman is very strong. Even though life has devastated her, she is still tenaciously alive and supporting the family on her own.

At this time, a small figure walked out of the house.

The threshold of the door was high. The little figure climbed over the threshold and staggered towards Jiang Ning, stretching out his hands as he walked.

"Brother...hug."

It is the woman's child that has come out.

Seeing the child walking towards him, Jiang Ning held him in his arms and looked at the sun.

The child felt uncomfortable in the position, so he adjusted his position in Jiang Ning's arms and fell asleep again.

Looking at the child in his arms, Jiang Ning had a calm expression.

This child is much thinner than a normal two-year-old. Two-year-olds can already walk, but he still walks unsteadily and speaks indistinctly.

I heard from the woman that the child was born like this. The couple went to see a doctor, who diagnosed him with congenital deficiencies and a tendency to die young. It's a miracle that the child has survived until now, but it's hard to say how long he can live.

The woman's husband and his family are all nice people. Even though they knew the child would not grow up, they still took good care of him and did not abandon him. It's just a pity that misfortune favors the poor, and now only mother and child are left to depend on each other.

Looking at the child who quickly fell asleep in his arms, Jiang Ning reached out and smoothed down his dry hair.

At this time, two farm men passed by here, and showed ridicule when they saw Jiang Ning in the yard.

"Pretty face."

The two of them spoke as if no one was around, not caring at all whether Jiang Ning heard them or not.

"I don't know where the Liu family's daughter-in-law brought this gigolo from, and he even moved into her husband's house. Her husband was hacked to death by those bandits because of her, and she has already found a gigolo not long ago. I wonder if her husband in the underworld will be so angry if he finds out about this."

One person said sarcastically, and as if afraid that Jiang Ning couldn't hear clearly, he raised his voice a little.

Another person echoed: "Yes, Liu Changgui died unjustly!"

No one in the village knew who Jiang Ning was. After the woman rescued him, she was afraid that Jiang Ning's enemies would hunt her down, so she didn't reveal a word. When the villagers saw that the woman actually ran back from the mountain village with a pretty boy, they started gossiping about her. The woman got used to it during this time.

However, the two of them were talking more and more excessively.

"In my opinion, this woman has probably been hooking up with this pretty boy for a long time. She must be very happy that her husband's family has died!"

"Doesn't she have a sick son? Anyway, her son won't live long. When her son dies, she will run away with this pretty boy!"

The two discussed loudly, and Jiang Ning stood in front of them without them knowing.

The two men saw Jiang Ning, who was in the yard just now, suddenly appear in front of them, with expressions as if they had seen a ghost.

"You, you, you...are you a human or a ghost?"

One person stammered.

Jiang Ning's face was very pale, not even a bit of blood under the scorching sun at noon. In addition, Jiang Ning looked at them expressionlessly and appeared in front of them like a ghost. The two of them were frightened as if they had seen a ghost.

Is the daughter-in-law of the Liu family raising a ghost?

The two of them thought in horror.

Jiang Ning's voice rang out.

"If I hear you say something like that again, I'll..."

Before Jiang Ning finished speaking, the two men immediately knelt down.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, I won't dare to say it again."

The two were so frightened that they burst into tears and kowtowed continuously.

"Grandpa Ghost, please let us go. We won't dare to say it again."

Ghost grandpa?

Jiang Ning didn't expect that these two people actually treated him as a ghost, so he couldn't say anything else.

Chapter 7: Destiny (Added Chapter 26, /)

Chapter 443: Destiny (Added Chapter 7, 26/)

These ordinary people who have never been to school and have lived in the village all their lives are the most likely to believe in ghosts and gods. Jiang Ning did nothing, but just showed off his skills and made them think they saw a ghost.

Jiang Ning, who wanted to sternly warn the two, frowned slightly and changed his words.

"If I hear such words again in the village, I will make sure that neither of you will have any peace."

Jiang Ning had a blank expression on his face, his tone was vague, and his pale face made it even more creepy.

The two were so frightened that they almost fainted and didn't even dare to say anything.

"roll."

Jiang Ning shouted softly, and the two of them ran away tumbling. Before running away, they subconsciously looked back, only to see that Jiang Ning, who had just been blocking them on the road, had returned to the yard holding the woman's child.

This scene made the two men feel like they had seen a ghost. They dared not stay any longer and only regretted that their parents had not given them two more legs.

Jiang Ning glanced at the backs of the two people running away, and then stopped looking at them. His eyes turned to the sleeping child in his arms.

After a while, the woman came out of the house.

"My benefactor, the food is ready, come in and eat."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning stood up and carried the child into the house.

The food was very light, but it tasted very good to Jiang Ning.

"It's just a simple meal, please don't mind it, benefactor."

The woman said.

Jiang Ning smiled and said: "This is the best thing I have eaten in a while."

After Jiang Ning woke up, he found that it was the woman who saved him. Seeing that her family was already in poverty, Jiang Ning wanted to give her some silver, but the silver he had was lost in the war, and the place where he buried the gold and silver he got from the mountain stronghold was too remote and there were wild beasts everywhere. It was too dangerous for the woman to go there alone, so the matter was put on hold.

Later, Jiang Ning proposed to get some gold and silver to thank the woman after his injury healed, but the woman firmly refused, saying that she wanted a reward for saving Jiang Ning, so how much should she give Jiang Ning for saving her.

Jiang Ning remained silent and never mentioned it again.

After dinner, Jiang Ning returned to the room where he was resting, took something and sat outside.

Jiang Ning stared at the broken sword in his hand in a daze.

This Gentleman's Sword was the sword that had accompanied Yue Buqun for many years. When he left Dengfeng, Yue Buqun gave him the sword, but now it was broken.

This sword means a lot to him.

Jiang Ning was in a daze for a long time. When he came to his senses, he looked towards the room where he lived.

The Zhenwu Sword is placed there.

Speaking of the Zhenwu Sword, Jiang Ning had to admit that the Zhenwu Sword gave him great help after that battle, greatly reducing his internal energy consumption. If it weren't for the Zhenwu Sword, he would have been exhausted to death by masters like Xiang Wentian, Lan Fenghuang, and Shangguan Yun, let alone retreating.

"Zhenwu Sword..."

Jiang Ning whispered softly.

He didn't expect that the sword would end up in his hands.

Maybe this is fate.

……

October.

After another month of rest, Jiang Ning's injuries were finally almost healed.

And he was ready to go.

"My benefactor, you were injured so badly before, and it's only been a few months. It won't be too late to rest for a while longer."

The woman said very sincerely.
