235 Chapter 234
Facing Zhang Yao's optimistic attitude, Xia asked puzzledly: "Why? Why are you so optimistic? You obviously have such a serious illness."

Seeing Xia's serious face, Zhang Yao asked thoughtfully, "Huh? Miss Xia, if I guess wrong, I'm sorry first. Are you suffering from some serious illness like me?"

"..." Xia nodded.

"Sure enough, I just heard you ask me that, so I vaguely learned it." Zhang Yao said, looked at Shen Mu and said, "Ah Mu, if you think about it, you already know?"

Shen Mu waved his hand and said, "No... I just found out too."

Xia nodded and said, "...well, only he knows, others don't."

Zhang Yao said with a smile: "Isn't that ruthless? It will always make me feel better when someone is around to share the burden for me."

Xia covered her face and said sadly: "But? But I'm afraid, what if I fail? Dad has been looking for a cure for me all his life, but he didn't find it until he passed away. Over the years, I have seen ruthless There are too many doctors, and no one can cure me. So I can't give birth to any hope in my heart now. I have actually accepted my fate now. But I dare not tell other people this, I don't want to pour cold water on them, ah Mu, since you know now, you won't tell them, will you?"

"Well, don't worry, unless you say it yourself, I won't say it casually." Shen Mu nodded.

"..." Xia, who was originally sad, suddenly smiled dumbly, and the atmosphere eased.

Zhang Yao also pursed her lips and smiled, and said slowly to Xia Yu: "You said just now that I am very optimistic, but in fact, I am not optimistic, but I dare not be pessimistic. As you said, you dare not speak the truth, it hurts The hearts of my friends; I am the same. I dare not show a little unhappiness to make my mother worry. Every time I get sick, no matter how sad I am, I will hold on, because I dare not leave my mother. If I am gone, What should I do, mother? Think about it, when you are sick, is your partner also very sad? Would you like to see them feel sad for you? "

It has to be said that Zhang Yao's words touched Xia's heart, Xia nodded and said, "Of course I don't want to. That's why I didn't talk about myself, and I didn't even tell them about it."

Zhang Yao smiled and said, "Isn't that right? If you don't want them to be sad, then don't be unhappy. I know it's hard to persevere, but losing hope is the most terrible thing. You must not do this Kind of stupid. If I can do it, you can do it too."

Xia nodded and said: "You're right, even if it's for them, I have to persevere, one day, we—"

Zhang Yao said: "——I can survive."

Xia smiled and said, "Thank you. Don't worry, if I can find someone with good medical skills, I must ask him to see you."

Zhang Yao nodded and said, "Okay, we have an appointment."

"Miss Xiaoyao, your medicine is ready." Dr. Li handed the medicine to Zhang Yao, and they left the clinic.

Go back to the village and come to the gate of Zhang Yao's house.

Xia comforted: "Don't worry, ma'am, Ms. Zhang is a lucky person with her own destiny, so she will be fine. In the future, when we meet a good doctor, we will also invite you to see Ms. Zhang."

Zhang said: "Then thank you for your trouble."

Shen Mu said: "Don't worry, although Miss Zhang's birth defects cannot be cured, it is not impossible to keep her life safe in the future."

"Ah, really?!" Now, everyone's eyes fell on Shen Mu.

"En." Shen Mu took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom as he spoke, and said, "This medicine bottle is what I got in the past, and taking one pill every month can keep Miss Zhang Yao's heart as normal."

Said, Shen Mu took out a pill from his bosom, this pill was of no use to him, it was just used to increase alchemy proficiency in alchemy in the past, but now it can be used to save someone's life. It's also better than throwing it away as trash.

Xia didn't expect Shen Mu to be so open-minded, but felt that Shen Mu's identity was even more mysterious, which made her a little unpredictable.

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly waved her hand and said, "This...how did this happen? With such a precious medicine, what can our mother and daughter give to our benefactor?!"

In Shen Mu's eyes, the refining residue that could be thrown away as garbage, was like a holy medicine in front of the mother and daughter.

"Yeah, this medicine is extremely precious, I can't bear it..." Zhang Yao's face was pale, although she said so, her eyes were fixed on the pill bottle in Shen Mu's hand.

Shen Mu smiled faintly, and said: "It's okay, we are chivalrous and righteous, this is nothing more than a trivial matter."

With trembling hands, Zhang Yao took the pill bottle from Shen Mu's hand, carefully stuffed it into her bosom, gave a deep salute, and thanked gratefully: "Thank you benefactor, great kindness, Xiao Yao will remember it deeply."

Zhang Yao's mother also shed tears of gratitude and said: "Grandfather, I hope that you two will have a meal at our house tonight to express our mother and daughter's gratitude."

"Ding dong, the host helped Zhang Yao heal her illness and gained 3000 happiness points."

Xia also admired Shen Mu's chivalrous heart. Seeing that Zhang's mother and daughter wanted to keep the two of them for a meal as a token of gratitude, she couldn't refuse, and said with a light smile, "Okay, ma'am, we'll try it later." Your craftsmanship is just..."

Seeing that everyone's eyes fell on him, Shen Mu just nodded slightly, "Well, that's fine."

Seeing that Shen Mu nodded in agreement, Zhang Yao's mother said happily, "Okay, please come in quickly, I'll go and cook for you."

Entering the wooden house, this is a wooden house with three connected ones, the kitchen is on the left and the wing room is on the right.

Shen Mu, Xia and Zhang Yao sat around on the small bamboo stools beside the red wooden table in the main hall.

With a hint of mystery in Xia's eyes, he said to Zhang Yao, "Hey, do you like that teacher?" Xia had seen before that Zhang Yao seemed to like that teacher named Yue Mingchen, so she said bluntly.

"..." Zhang Yao's cheeks were flushed, and she just nodded slightly.

Xia pouted and said, "Oh, that guy is cold, I don't know why you like him so much."

"I...hehe, I don't know." Zhang Yao was a little embarrassed, but she still said slowly: "A year ago, Mr. came to live in Bixi Village and opened a school. I heard his reading voice was nice, I listened to it every day, and then slowly fell in love with him. But my husband was always indifferent to me, but I didn’t care about these. I listened to his lectures with Xiaochu and the others every day, just to see him, so that I So happy."

Xia smiled and said, "You are really devoted to him."

"That's not the case." Zhang Yao picked up the steaming teacup, took a sip, and said thoughtfully: "It may be because in the past, I felt that I might die at any time, so I didn't think too much about it. .But now that I think about it? Uh, which girl would keep chasing people like me."

"Pfft—" Xia was drinking water, and almost couldn't hold back the water.

Shen Mu also shook his head and said with a smile: "Miss Zhang is timid, it's understandable."

Shaoqing, Zhang Yao's mother made a few side dishes, although they are very ordinary, but they are also a wish of others.

After everyone had dinner, Zhang Yao looked thoughtful and nodded, "By the way, it's already dark now. Have you found a place to live? Do you want to stay at my house?"

In this wooden house, there were only mother and daughter. It was a little embarrassing to invite Shen Mu to stay in. Shen Mu even wondered if this plane world was different from the ancient times, and the atmosphere was still very open.

Facing the girl's invitation, Shen Mu waved his hand and declined: "We will stay at the hotel tonight, thank you for your kindness."

"Is that so?" Zhang Yao showed disappointment, nodded slightly and said, "Okay..."

Back at the inn, each returned to the guest room to rest for the night. The next day, early in the morning, I got up early, so I washed up first and went downstairs to drink morning tea.

"what!"

"Ouch! How did you walk?"

Xia accidentally stepped on the foot of a man with scars all over his face, and quickly apologized: "Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't see it."

Standing behind the big man with the scar were two young men, a thick man and a thin man. The thin man scratched his nose and said, "Oh, brother, she said she didn't see it."

"Didn't see it? You said you didn't see such a freshman standing here?" The big man with the scar was angry, and then he looked up and down maliciously, and said with a wretched smile: "Besides, you stepped on my foot just now, you know Is it? My new boots, you stepped on them with one foot, they are all covered with mud, did you see that?"

Xia pinched her waist and said angrily: "...you guys, are you deliberately finding fault?"

The scarred man showed his arms and rolled up his sleeves, and smiled maliciously: "Hey, you, you want to beg, beg for beating?"

At this time, a woman in green clothes came down from the upstairs, it was Yu Jie Fan's Mu Changlan, Mu Changlan glanced at the three hooligans, and sneered: "It's thick-skinned for a few big men to pester a girl." Yes. After all, don’t you just want to extort two money?”

The man with a face looked at Mu Changlan, and the hala was about to flow out. He paused, and said with a smile: "Hey... there is a beautiful woman here! You don't have to pay if you want, as long as you come and have a drink with us, hey-hey."

The dog leg behind him echoed: "That's right! That's right! Brother is right."

"You guys!" Xia's face was full of anger.

Mu Changlan raised her eyebrows and smiled, and said, "Okay."

"...!" Xia looked at Mu Changlan who was slowly coming down from upstairs with an incredulous look on her face.

Mu Changlan came downstairs, pulled out the sword at her waist, pointed at the three ruffians and said: "I, Mu Changlan, hate people like you the most, how about having this sword in my hand to accompany you for a few drinks?! "

"Big brother, she wants to move, do it!" The dog leg behind the man with the scar stammered in surprise.

The man with the scar also pulled out the long knife at his waist, and shouted: "Think we are scared?! Brothers, let's teach her a lesson together!"

Hearing the noise downstairs, Shen Mu and the others also came out of the guest room.

Seeing that a fight was about to start, Xiahou Jinxuan staggered down the stairs and persuaded him, "Let me tell you, if you have something to say..."

"It's interesting to watch beauties and villains fight." Shen Mu stood on the railing, clapping his hands and laughing.

"You..." Mu Changlan turned her head and glared at Shen Mu.

The shopkeeper also staggered out of the house, his face almost wrinkled into a bun, and said bitterly: "Heroes, if you want to make gestures, please go outside, my small shop can't stand beatings."

"Bang bang bang!" While speaking, Mu Changlan had already turned over the three ruffians, pointed at the three ruffians with her sword and said angrily, "Get lost!"

"Hey..." The three hooligans hurriedly got up, swearing that they would not give up, and snorted coldly: "Hmph! It's not too late for a good man to take revenge for ten years, just wait and see!"

Mu Changlan put the sword back into its sheath, and said disdainfully: "A bunch of useless people."

Seeing that Mu Changlan beat the three hooligans away in the blink of an eye, everyone secretly admired it, only Shen Mu didn't take it seriously, and looked at the beauty in green clothes downstairs lightly, Xia quickly thanked: "Thank you, thank you help."

"It's a little effort, you're welcome. Mu Changlan waved her hand like a chivalrous woman.

Xiahou Jinxuan stepped forward and cupped his fists and said, "Thank you for your help, Miss, I am very grateful."

Mu Changlan smiled and said, "It's okay, I don't like those bullying scumbags the most. By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm Xia Mu Changlan."

"My name is Xia." Xia, Xiahou Jinxuan, and Jiang Cheng all introduced each other.

Shen Mu waved his hand and said, "Just call me A Mu."

"Ah Mu?" Mu Changlan's face turned strange, but she just nodded.

Xie Cangxing smiled and said, "My name is Xie Cangxing."

Mu Changlan wrote down all the names one by one, and read: "Miss Xia, Mr. Xiahou, Jiang Shaoxia, A Mu, Mr. Xie—"

"You're welcome, just treat me to a good meal~" Xie Cangxing laughed.

"?!..." Mu Changlan rolled her eyes angrily, "You—"

"It's really..." Xia said: "This sister, just call him a big rock breaker or a big one."

Xie Cangxing smiled and said, "Haha, that's fine."

Mu Changlan gave Xie Cangxing an angry look.

Shen Mu asked: "Which sect does the girl belong to? She just did a good job."

"It's just a small sect, so I'm afraid everyone won't know about it." Mu Changlan said vaguely, then turned to Xia and asked with a concerned look: "Xia, are you not injured?"

Xia quickly waved her hand and said, "No, no, sister, don't worry."

"Sister..." Mu Changlan smiled sweetly and said, "Well, I haven't heard this title for a long time."

"Huh? What?" Xia asked noncommittally.

Mu Changlan waved her hand and said, "It's nothing, just call me Sister Mu."

"Okay!" Xia nodded.

Mu Changlan asked: "Speaking of which, where did you come from and where are you going?"

"The ones from Mingzhou are going to Zhejian Villa to participate in the Sword Tasting Conference." Xia said.

"Mingzhou?" Mu Changlan asked thoughtfully, "Is it that big and lively town in the south?"

Xia smiled and nodded, "Yes, yes, it's very lively! A few days before we came, there was a temple fair, and there were huge crowds..."

"They hit it off right away..." Xia Hou Jinxuan couldn't help saying, seeing the two girls look familiar.

The two girls chatted happily, so they went to the wing room and chatted for half an hour.

After half an hour, everyone was ready to go.

Mu Changlan smiled at Xiahou Jinxuan and Jiang Cheng and said, "I didn't expect to meet the important figures of Xiahou and Ouyang here. It's a great honor. The Sword Tasting Conference at Folding Sword Villa was originally a grand event in martial arts. I heard that this year It will be even more grand than in previous years. As a person in the world, of course I also want to join in the fun. I heard Miss Xia said that she is serving as your bodyguard?"

As he spoke, he looked at Xiahou Jinxuan.

Xiahou Jinxuan nodded slightly and said, "Uh...well."

Mu Changlan chuckled and said: "Hehe, then you are the boss. How about it, how about adding me as an extra guard? For the sake of Miss Xia, I will give you a discount, and the wages will be paid for the board and lodging along the way." Arrive."

As soon as these words came out, Xiahou Jinxuan hadn't said anything yet, Jiang Cheng firmly refused: "No. Excuse me for being rude, but girl, you don't know your identity, how can you go with us?"

Xia said unhappily: "Hey, you saw it just now, Sister Mu helped us beat those hooligans away. She is good at martial arts, and she is a nice person, and she is willing to go with us. Where can you find such a good job?!"

Shen Mu was not afraid that Mu Changlan would cause any trouble, besides, there were many beauties on the road who could relieve the loneliness, so he said, "I agree with Miss Xia's words."

Jiang Chengqi's face turned green: "You——"
