The three siblings took herbs from Dr. Wang in the village and received a wave of sympathetic looks.
On the way back, Jiang Heyun suddenly remembered that it was the season for eating wild chestnuts, and said coquettishly: "Sister, how about we go pick wild chestnuts? My sister likes to eat wild chestnuts the most. They can also replenish my body and relieve the pain."
Fly away now."
"Yes, sister, you can rest at home. My brother and I will pick wild chestnuts for you to eat." Jiang Hexuan, who grabbed Jiang Hexi's slender fingers, responded hurriedly.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Hexi immediately thought of the tragic future of the two of them, how could he dare to let them run around.
But then I thought about how Jiang's father would take his three siblings to pick wild chestnuts every year. He was afraid that they would cause grief for both his parents, so he had no choice but to agree.
"It's not impossible, but I want to go too. You are too young to go to the mountains alone, nor to dangerous places, especially the river!"
After saying that, Jiang Hexi squatted down, looked at the two of them seriously, and said, "Do you remember?"
The two boys were calmed down by their sister's stern eyes and hurriedly responded.
Jiang Heyun even patted his small chest and promised: "Sister, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my brother. We won't go to the river."
"Okay, Ah Yun is so good, and Ah Xuan is also a good boy." Jiang Hexi was so cute by these two soft and sensible brothers that she couldn't help but ravage their cheeks that had lost weight due to the death of their parents.
After the three people put away the herbs, they picked up their tools and walked towards Daqingshan.
But before I entered the mountain, I saw bustling crowds crowded halfway up the mountain. The cheers for a good harvest mixed with the sounds of frustration because I was late and not enough chestnuts were picked, forming a lively scenery.
"There are so many people! Why don't we forget it." Seeing so many people rushing to pick chestnuts, Jiang Hexi was immediately persuaded to leave.
"It's okay, sister, I know a Feng Shui treasure place. My father took me there before. There are many chestnuts there, which are big, round and delicious." Jiang Heyun couldn't bear to let his sister down, so he hurriedly told his father that he couldn't say what he had promised before his death.
The secret was revealed.
Looking at his stupid brother, Jiang Hexuan shook his head helplessly, and sighed like an old man, looking like he was helpless.
"Really, that's great! Let's go secretly and don't disturb other people." Jiang Hexi understood immediately, gave a sly smile and lowered his voice.
The three siblings sneaked to the stream in the forest and planned to enter the mountain from this side, which was the upper reaches of Qinghe River.
Towering mountains tower on the horizon, tall green trees cover the valleys in layers, reflecting a deep and quiet atmosphere, while the clear river water hits the pebbles along the riverside, making a crisp tinkling sound.
Jiang Hexi was squinting and enjoying the rare fresh air, quietness and tranquility in modern society, but was awakened by Jiang Heyun's sharp cry.
"Sister, come quickly! There is a dead person here!"
"What?" Jiang Hexi exclaimed subconsciously and hurried to the side of her two younger brothers.
As I got closer, I found an unconscious man in black lying by the river.
Jiang Hexi took her two frightened younger brothers and pulled them to the foot of a big tree not far away.
"Sister, don't go, Ayun is afraid."
"Sister, no."
The two boys clung to Jiang Hexi's skirt, fearing that she would pass by.
Jiang Hexi knew that the sudden death of Jiang's father and Jiang's mother had cast a huge shadow on them, and she was afraid that something might happen to her, so she comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, sister just went over to take a look, nothing will happen."
"Sister, just take a look." Jiang Heyun was still worried and added.
"Okay." Seeing the uneasiness of the two of them, Jiang Hexi simply hugged them, trying to calm their panic.
Jiang Hexi cautiously approached the man in black and was surprised when she saw that almost half of his body was submerged in the water. Although his face was pale, he had sharp eyebrows, a high nose, straight eyelashes, and a beautiful face.
Jiang Hexi hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand to feel his pulse.
"There is a heartbeat, but fortunately he is not dead."
Feeling the weak but clear pulse beating, Jiang Hexi breathed a sigh of relief. After all, she was most afraid of ghosts.
"Ayun, Axuan, come here quickly, he's not dead."
"You guys take this backpack, and I'll carry him home."
The two of them were too busy to respond and worked together to help Jiang Hexi pull the unconscious man onto their sister's thin but strong shoulders.
The three of them walked around and finally returned to the hut next to the bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain before the sun set.
"Ah Yun Ah Xuan, please go and invite Doctor Wang over. Just tell me that the bump on my forehead is swollen for some reason."
The two brothers knew that Jiang Hexi was lying, but they ran out very cooperatively.
"Girl Xi, what's wrong with you?"
Before he even entered the door, Dr. Wang's unique male duck voice sounded loudly and passed into the wooden hut.
Jiang Hexi hurriedly opened the door, and as expected, she saw Doctor Wang looking at her with an unhappy expression.
"You're not seriously swollen! Ayun, this kid, knows how to tell lies."
"It's not me, Uncle Wang, it's him! Look at him quickly."
Suddenly she found a strange man lying on the bed. Doctor Wang was so angry that his beard curled up and he stared at her with a red face.
Jiang Hexi touched her nose guiltily and said harshly: "Uncle Wang, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. I picked him up by the river. I can't just die without saving him!"
"You, just like your father, you just pick him up and take him home without fear of anything happening." Thinking of his gentle and kind friend who died young, Dr. Wang felt both emotional and sad.
"Forget it, it's a doctor's duty to save lives and heal the wounded. You go out first! I'll show him."
Hearing this, Jiang Hexi knew that Doctor Wang had agreed. Although he was tough, it was undeniable that Doctor Wang's medical skills were excellent. Even the county magistrate's wife asked him to take a pulse, so she hurriedly pulled her two curious brothers out.
More than half an hour later, Doctor Wang slowly came out of the bamboo house.
"I showed him that although there were many wounds on his body, they were not fatal. The sword wound on his arm was a bit serious, but luckily it was discovered in time and he could recover after a period of time."
"Also, were you seen by anyone when you brought him back?" When he thought of something, Doctor Wang's face changed and he looked at Jiang Hexi nervously.
"No, Uncle Wang, our home is relatively remote, and the people in the village are busy picking chestnuts, so they can't take care of us." Jiang Heyun was the first to answer.
"That's good. Remember to come to me if you have anything. As a girl, you should be more careful." Doctor Wang was still a little worried about Jiang Hexi. After all, she dared to bring a strange man home casually. Although she had good intentions, she had to
Defend.
"Okay, Uncle Wang, don't worry!"
While several people were talking in low voices, the man who was lying unconscious on the bed suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of dark and deep eyes. The man moved his body and felt the pain in his right hand, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes.
