C2142 Where Is This Place?

Article 2142. Where is this place?

"Young lady, this time, the Hidden Cloud Sect's Young Lord asked the old master to send you to the Hidden Cloud Sect to be his concubine. Why should we go back? We might as well leave this place and hide our identities. Although the Hidden Cloud Sect was powerful, they had already left the Sishui County. There's nothing else we can do."

In a luxurious carriage, there was a young maidservant who was about 14 or 15 years old. She was trying to persuade a 18-19 year old girl. This girl had an excellent appearance. She had a weak aura and seemed to be depressed.

"Xiaoli, if I leave now, what will dad do? Our Zhao family's business is here. If that Young Lord from the Hidden Cloud Sect becomes angry, I'm afraid that no one from the Zhao family will be a match for him."

The girl said in a low voice.

Xiaoli immediately said, "Miss, how could the Hidden Cloud Sect dare to attack our Zhao family openly? As long as he can't find Miss, I'm afraid they won't be able to do anything about it."

"It's easy to dodge an open spear, but difficult to defend against an arrow in the dark..."

The girl shook her head and revealed a resolute expression, "When we return this time, I will arrange for you to stay at home."

"Miss, if you go to the Hidden Cloud Sect, Xiaoli will naturally follow you. There is no reason for her to stay alone in the Zhao family!"

Xiaoli hurriedly said.

The woman seemed to be about to say something when the carriage suddenly braked. She and maidservant Xiaoli exclaimed and almost fell down.

"Old horse, how did you drive the carriage!? If you break Miss, can you afford it?"

Xiaoli angrily pulled open the curtain of the carriage and scolded the old horse who was driving the car.

The old horse looked to be in his forties and looked honest and honest. But at this moment, his head was covered in cold sweat. He pointed to the trembling front and said, "Miss Xiaoli, you... you, you see..."

Xiaoli was slightly shocked and thought that someone had robbed the road. Recently, Sishui County was not peaceful. Perhaps it was because of the battle between the two innate experts of Heavenly Dragon Country, which resulted in both sides suffering heavy losses, which caused those righteous sects to be flustered over this matter. In a short period of time, many bandits appeared. On this road, there were already several teams of carriages that had been robbed. Not a single one of them survived!

"Who dares to stop me..."

Xiaoli's inner qi was lifted and she jumped to the front of the carriage. Just as she was about to introduce herself, she realized that there was nothing in front of her. Where did the robber come from? There was only a man in ragged clothes lying on the ground. His body was covered with wounds that were deep enough to see bones. He did not know what death was!

"Old Ma, you are just a beggar. Why don't you just go around him? Why are you so scared?"

Xiaoli looked at Old Ma with dissatisfaction.

Old Ma looked anxious. He pointed to the sky and then to the body. Finally, he squeezed out a few words, "It fell from the sky!"

"It fell from the sky?"

Xiaoli's eyes revealed a trace of ridicule. She said to the old horse, "Old horse, I usually tell you not to practice. Now you are so old that your eyes are blurry. Did it fall from the sky? Do you think that this person is a grandmaster who can walk in the air?"

"Xiaoli, what happened outside?"

The feminine voice of the woman came from inside the carriage.

Xiaoli heard it and quickly returned to the carriage and said, "Miss, it's nothing. It's just a child beggar." After saying that, she shouted at the old horse, "Hurry up and hurry!"

"Yes!"

The old horse wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead. In his heart, he also suspected that he was seeing things.

When the carriage took a detour, the woman suddenly opened the curtain and looked at the carriage. She could not bear to see it.

"Old horse, stop the carriage. Let's see if he's alive or dead."

The woman said in a low voice.

"Miss, why should we care about a child beggar like him? If he is a spy sent by the robbers, what should we do? Xiaoli's martial arts has already reached the Bone Forging First Rank, but..."

Xiaoli hurriedly tried to dissuade him.

" Saving a life is better than building a seven-storied pagoda. Old horse, go and take a look. "

The woman insisted.

"Alright."

Old Ma answered and went forward to check. After a while, he said in a loud voice, "Miss, she is still alive."

"Carry him into the car and bring him back to the doctor to take a look."

The woman instructed.

Very quickly, Old Ma carried the severely injured person onto the carriage. Xiaoli had a look of disgust and did not allow him to enter the carriage. She just laid behind Old Ma like this before the carriage continued forward.

When the sun was about to set, the carriage finally entered Hundred Mountain City and stopped at the entrance of the Zhao family, the most famous business family in Hundred Mountain City.

A few women and a few elders stood at the entrance of the Zhao family. Their expressions were somewhat anxious. When they saw the carriage, it was as if they heaved a long sigh of relief in their hearts.

"Zhao Ruo has finally returned. A few days ago, someone sent by the Hidden Cloud Sect's Minor Sect Leader said that she has returned. If they couldn't see Zhao Ruo within a month... In the future, the Zhao family's business in Hundred Mountain City will be handed over to the Huang family. May the heavens bless us! May the heavens bless us!"

" Eh? Who's that man behind Old Ma? A child beggar?"

The women exchanged looks and looked at an old man. The old man nodded respectfully and strode to the front of the carriage. He said coldly, "Old Ma, who is this person?"

"Head Chief, I..."

The old horse was speechless. He did not know who this guy was. Along the way, he had been thinking about whether this guy had fallen from the sky.

"Head Chief, he is a child beggar. He was seriously injured. Miss was kind enough to see that he did not die, so she brought him back."

Xiaoli quickly jumped off the carriage and carefully helped Zhao Ruo out of the carriage. Her eyes swept over the few wives and the few elders and a trace of ridicule appeared in her eyes as she coldly said.

The few women in front of her were Zhao Ruo's aunt and the few old men were their lackeys, the Deacon of the Zhao family.

In Xiaoli's view, these fellows wished that Eldest Lady would marry into the Hidden Cloud Sect and stabilize the position of the Zhao family in Hundred Mountain City. Only then would they be able to steadily make a fortune!

"Miss is really kind. Someone, take this person away and find Physician Ding to take a look at him."

Head Chief said with a fake smile. After that, a few guards walked out of the courtyard and roughly grabbed the severely injured person on the carriage and walked into the Zhao family.

"Miss, you have worked hard all the way. Please come in."

Head Chief then looked at Zhao Ruo with a smile.

The few women also surrounded Zhao Ruo and asked her for warmth. However, they did not know how much true feelings they had.

...

"Physician Ding, this is him. If you can save him, then save him. If you can't save him, then don't waste our Zhao family's medicine. Just throw him outside and feed him to wild dogs."

In the most remote woodshed of the Zhao Mansion, a guard pointed at the person on the ground and said to a young man who seemed to be in his mid-twenties, who looked mature and steady.

After saying that, he seemed to be unwilling to stay here any longer, so he turned around and left.

"He's still alive even after suffering such injuries?"

Ding Feng went forward to examine the wound, and a look of shock appeared on his face. Then, he took out a silver needle and inserted it into the wound.2

The silver needle was broken.

Ding Feng was shocked. What surprised him even more was that the man had opened his eyes. He was looking at him with an indifferent expression. Ding Feng had never seen such a terrifying expression before. He had never felt so afraid even when facing the patriarch of Zhao Mansion.

"Where is this place?"

Ning Qi said in a plain tone, his voice was a little hoarse.
