Chapter 233: You go quickly, don't worry about us.
But before they could catch their breath, another group of assassins appeared on the shore...
Faced with yet another group of assassins appearing on the shore, Fang Xiaoxiao and the others were already exhausted.
However, at this critical moment, Pei Yan and Li Renyi, along with the others, were poisoned and injured due to the previous dangers, and collapsed to the ground due to exhaustion.
"Fang Xiaoxiao, go quickly, don't worry about us!" Pei Yan said, his face as pale as paper.
Fang Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth, a determined light flashing in her eyes: "No, I won't abandon you!"
At this moment, the assassins approached step by step, their faces revealing sinister smiles.
Fang Xiaoxiao forced herself to calm down, her brain racing.
She suddenly noticed some herbs on the ground, herbs with special toxicity that she had seen in medical books before.
She had a plan in mind, quickly gathered the herbs, and then pretended to be afraid and begged the assassins for mercy.
"Please, let us go!"
The assassins laughed heartily, remaining completely vigilant.
Taking advantage of their moment of relaxation, Fang Xiaoxiao crushed the herbs in her hand and threw them at the assassins.
The herbal powder, upon contact with the assassins' skin and eyes, instantly produced a strong toxic reaction.
The assassins covered their faces in agony, and cries of pain filled the air.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Fang Xiaoxiao picked up the weapons on the ground and launched an attack on the assassins.
She was agile and each move struck a vital point.
Under Fang Xiaoxiao's fierce counterattack, the assassins fell one after another.
Finally, all the assassins were dealt with, and Fang Xiaoxiao collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
"We...we're safe."
Fang Xiaoxiao said, panting heavily.
The others struggled to climb toward her, their eyes filled with admiration and gratitude.
"Thanks to you, Xiao Xiao," Li Renyi said weakly.
Fang Xiaoxiao forced a smile.
"Don't speak yet. Let me check your injuries and find a way to detoxify you."
In this desolate wilderness, Fang Xiaoxiao used her medical knowledge to search for usable herbs to treat Pei Yan and the others' injuries, striving to lead them onward to find a safe place to stay.
Fang Xiaoxiao led the injured Pei Yan and the others on a difficult journey, finally arriving at a remote village.
The village looked very dilapidated, with houses scattered about, and the villagers dressed simply, their faces etched with the hardships of life.
Fang Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, stepped forward, and tried to communicate with the villagers.
At first, the villagers looked at these strangers with wariness and suspicion, and kept their distance.
Fang Xiaoxiao was not discouraged. She smiled kindly and raised her voice.
"Fellow villagers, we are not bad people. We encountered danger outside and fled here for our lives."
Some villagers stopped and looked at her, but still kept their distance.
Fang Xiaoxiao continued.
"We won't cause any trouble for you. On the contrary, we have some skills that can help you improve your lives."
Upon hearing this, a villager couldn't help but ask.
"What can you do to help us? We live in a poor, remote area, we have nothing."
Fang Xiaoxiao said with a firm gaze.
"I know medicine and can treat people's illnesses; my friends are strong and can help people with their work."
Furthermore, we know a lot about what's happening outside, which we can share with everyone so that the children can learn more.
At this moment, an old man came out and looked them up and down.
"Young lady, you make it sound so nice, but how can we believe you?"
Fang Xiaoxiao quickly replied.
“Sir, look at us, we’re injured and exhausted. If we had bad intentions, would we have escaped here? We really just want a place to rest and wait for our injuries to heal before leaving.”
The villagers began to whisper and talk among themselves.
Fang Xiaoxiao struck while the iron was hot.
"We will also give everyone some compensation; we won't let them eat and stay for free."
Finally, thanks to Fang Xiaoxiao's sincerity and hard work, the villagers gradually lowered their guard and agreed to let them stay.
"Then you can stay here for now, but don't cause any trouble," the old man said.
Fang Xiaoxiao was moved to tears.
"Thank you everyone, thank you! We will definitely follow the rules."
And so, Fang Xiaoxiao and the others settled down temporarily in this remote village and began an extraordinary life.
With the help of the villagers, Fang Xiaoxiao and the others finally found a temporary place to stay.
Fang Xiaoxiao immediately began treating Pei Yan and the others' injuries. She borrowed some simple medicinal herbs and tools from the villagers and busied herself inside the house.
Just as she was focused on bandaging Pei Yan's wound, the village chief's daughter, Li Yuting, walked in.
The moment Li Yuting saw Pei Yan's handsome face, her heart stirred.
Seeing Fang Xiaoxiao and Pei Yan so close, she was instantly consumed by jealousy.
"Hmph, you wild girl who came from who-knows-where, what right do you have to take care of him here?"
Li Yuting put her hands on her hips and said with a domineering expression.
Fang Xiaoxiao looked up at her with a surprised expression and said.
“Young lady, I am treating his wounds; it is a matter of life and death.”
Ignoring everything else, Li Yuting rushed forward to push Fang Xiaoxiao away.
"I don't care, I want you to take care of him."
Fang Xiaoxiao quickly stopped her and patiently explained.
“Young lady, now is not the time to be willful. Their injuries are serious, and their lives will be in danger if they do not receive timely treatment.”
Li Yuting ignored her completely and shouted loudly.
"My father let you stay here, not so you could seduce men!"
Her commotion attracted other villagers, who gathered at the doorway, pointing and whispering.
Fang Xiaoxiao felt very helpless, but she knew that she couldn't have a conflict with Li Yuting at this moment, otherwise they might be driven out of the village.
“Miss Yuting, I have no ulterior motives towards Young Master Pei Yan; I am only trying to save his life. Once he recovers, you can do whatever you want with him.”
Fang Xiaoxiao tried her best to keep her tone calm.
Li Yuting, however, refused to back down.
"Who would believe you? I think you're up to no good."
At this moment, the village chief rushed over and shouted:
"Yuting, stop fooling around! They're saving someone."
Seeing her father get angry, Li Yuting calmed down a bit, but still glared fiercely at Fang Xiaoxiao.
Fang Xiaoxiao sighed helplessly and continued to treat Pei Yan.
The storm has subsided for the time being, but Fang Xiaoxiao knows that the days to come will probably not be peaceful.
After this ordeal, Fang Xiaoxiao was finally able to continue treating Pei Yan and the others without any distractions.
After several days of careful care, Pei Yan and the others' injuries gradually improved.
However, Li Yuting did not give up.
She always found a pretext to get close to Pei Yan, either by offering him water or food, showering him with attention.
