Chapter 35
The sound of galloping horses came from far away, and the rapid sound of horse hooves passed through the crowd and reached the scene.

Seeing the people around him being coaxed away by the galloping horses, Jiang Nan bit her bun and subconsciously moved aside.

Probably due to traveling all night and flying for too long in the cold environment at high altitude, the injured leg suddenly suffered from an old disease. A heart-pounding pain came from the calf, and I couldn't move even if I wanted to.

Jiang Nan hissed and felt bad as he saw the horse charging towards him.

Damn leg disease, it doesn’t hurt in the morning, it doesn’t hurt in the evening, but it just hurts at this time.

It couldn't be so unlucky that the horse just ran over her, right?

Should she bend down and hold her head?

That would probably lead to a more miserable death...

She had only been alive for a few days, and she didn't want to die so soon.

Besides, Ah Jiu hasn’t avenged her yet.

At the critical moment, someone suddenly grabbed her waist, and his strong palms pressed tightly against her abdomen from back to front.He held her and turned behind him, and then the two of them jumped back half a foot.

Just as he settled down, the man on horseback passed quickly in front of him, and a gust of earthy wind blew towards him.

After coming back to his senses, Jiang Nan raised his head, and his heart skipped a beat when he saw the clearly frightened eyes of the man in front of him.

It wasn't an illusion, she could feel that Xuan Yu was worried about her.

So, she was saved by a hero?

Before he could speak, Xuan Yu suddenly let go of his arms, and then took a long, reproachful breath: "Are the buns so delicious? You were so stupid that you didn't run away when the horse came?"

At that moment, Jiang Nan was really frightened. Before she could recover, she was inexplicably scolded by him again, and she felt even more aggrieved: "I didn't mean not to run, my legs hurt."

The voice was full of resentment, completely lacking the scornful tone of before.

Xuan Yu lowered his eyes and moved his gaze to her injured foot.

Then I remembered that when I landed, I felt that her walking posture was more crooked than before. But I was used to her bumpy walk, so I didn't care whether her leg injury was getting worse.

Thinking of this, Xuan Yu squatted down and reached out to check her leg injury.

Seeing his actions, Jiang Nan couldn't help but take a step back: "What are you doing?"

"What else can you do? Look at your legs."

Xuan Yu's arms paused for a moment, but he continued to move to her feet, holding her ankle with one hand, and casting a spell with his spiritual power to detect with the other hand.

It was obviously the first time he had done this kind of thing, but his movements were both skillful and gentle, which was very different from his previous attitude of being indifferent to men and women, and keeping others at a distance.

In two lifetimes, this is the first time Jiang Nan has been grabbed by the foot and unable to resist.

It's not that I can't resist, it's that my brain can't react at all whether to resist or not. It's like being eaten to death all of a sudden and I don't know how to resist.

Moreover, I feel that the two of them are a little close now, and I feel slowly and uneasy, and even my breathing is a little sluggish.

"Does it hurt here?" Xuan Yu probed with spiritual energy all the way.

It originally hurt, but now that he was grabbing her foot with his hand, Jiang Nan could only feel itching: "No, it doesn't hurt anymore."

I stuttered when I spoke.

Suddenly he felt guilty: "Senior Brother, I'm actually used to it, you don't have to worry about me."

After saying that, he tried to pull his feet back, but he didn't expect that Xuan Yu noticed her restless movements and tightened his grip: "Don't move. Where is this place? Does it hurt?"

Not only was his movements gentle, but his voice was also softer than ever before. Jiang Nan looked down at his slightly tightened eyebrows, and felt a little dazed for a moment: "Yes, a little." She was not slow, she could feel that Xuan Yu was treating her like this at the moment. Genuine concern.

Obviously he should hate her and avoid her.

It was also clear that there was a blood feud between them, and she hated him so much that she gritted her teeth and resented his ambiguous behavior.

But... I just couldn't push him away.

Even... a little obsessed.

It shouldn't be addicted.

Jiang Nan told herself in her heart: This person has a grudge against her for hurting her family and destroying herself. She should not be swayed by him, be soft-hearted towards him, or even... be moved by him.

Realizing that she was actually attracted to her enemy, even for just a short moment, Jiang Nan wanted to slap herself.

What a worthless thing!

After his thoughts wandered back, Jiang Nan regained his senses and calmly lifted his pants and pulled his legs out: "Elder brother, don't look at it, it's much better." The voice was obviously cold.

Worried that he didn't have enough concentration, he quickly changed the subject after speaking: "What happened to that person just now? Why is the horse running so fast in the busy market?"

Xuan Yu raised his head and saw that the figure running the horse had long since disappeared.

However, Guigu is a mixed bag, and there are all kinds of people. Just by looking at the indifferent reactions of the people on the street just now, you can guess that such a situation is very common, so there is no further pursuit.

It was her feet, he always felt like she was forcing them.

"Can I still leave?" Xuan Yu asked.

"It should work, it's not that painful anymore." Jiang Nan stuffed the uneaten half of the bun into her mouth, chewed it and said, "Where are you going? Looking for an inn? Then let's go."

Unexpectedly, Xuan Yu hesitated: "I won't look for you for now. If you can still walk, hold on. I'll take you to see your leg injury first."

As early as when she was in Changle Village, Jiang Nan had some doubts in her heart. In the past, Ah Jiu was not favored by her senior brother. Even if she changed her mind now, she would not be so shameless that she thought Xuan Yu would look down on her. .

Although she knew that he was going through a calamity now, that his nature was bound by fate, and that his character was this way, she still didn't believe that there would be someone in this world who would be nice to you for no reason.

I always felt that he must be thinking about something secretly.

"Elder brother, what is the name of the famous doctor we are looking for? Why is this man so strange that he actually stays in a place like Guigu?"

Xuan Yu didn't know why the famous doctor wanted to live here, but he had some guesses: "Maybe it's easier to make money here."

"He is a famous doctor, will he still be short of money?"

Xuan Yu couldn't keep up with her thinking: "You eat a lot, and I don't see you gaining weight."

Jiang Nan: "..."

I was ridiculed inexplicably.

"But Senior Brother, don't you think something is really wrong here?"

Gui Valley was once the battlefield for the war between demons. Even though there are now traces of human activities again, Jiang Nan always feels that everything here is full of weirdness.

It was clear that the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly, but the dark clouds above our heads were so dark and heavy that they seemed to be filled with a thick layer of ghosts that would never go away, making people breathless.

Observe carefully, although many houses have been built in the canyon and there are people living there, except for the rubble of the houses, there is almost no living plant, not even a green grass in the corner on the ground. nothing.

As rumored, after the war, all life was devastated and not even a blade of grass could grow.
