Tomb Raider System of Myriad Realms

Chapter 50 Linger
"Mother-in-law..." The young girl saw the old man coming in, looked at the broken medicine bowl, and hurriedly said, "I accidentally broke the medicine bowl just now, which woke up this young master."

"Oh...that's it!" The white-haired old woman looked at Zhang Qiling who was half lying on the bed, "Since he is awake, let him go earlier! We do not keep outsiders here, so we must not break the rules."

"Yes, mother-in-law, Ling'er knows." The girl nodded obediently.

The old woman coughed a few times, bent her back, and left the room on crutches.

How is this going?Are they acting for themselves?But does killing a monster need to be so troublesome?

Zhang Qiling hesitated for a moment, but saw the girl bent over to pick up the porcelain pieces on the ground. Although her face was as beautiful as the faceless girl's, the clothes on her body were coarse clothes, she looked like a simple peasant girl.

"Ouch..." The sharp tile cut the girl's finger, and the blood immediately flowed out, dripping on the mottled and worn-out wooden floor.

Zhang Qiling felt soft in her heart. She looked like a simple and lovely farm girl no matter what. What was going on?

The hand that had already grasped the handle of the Luoyang shovel was let go again, and the gold-touching talisman on his chest was not unusual at all. Could it be that he had misunderstood the girl.

"Are you okay?" Zhang Qiling asked boldly, no wonder there was a knife on Shuo Zizi's head!As soon as I saw the beautiful woman hurt, I couldn't help being moved with pity and pity.

The girl shook her head, pursed her lips and smiled: "I'm fine. It'll be fine as soon as the young master wakes up. You slept for three days and three nights, but you scared my mother-in-law and me."

"Three days and three nights?" Zhang Qiling was a little confused.

"Well! Three days ago, I went to collect medicine under the cliff and found you unconscious by the water, so I found someone to carry you back." The girl put the porcelain pieces in a bamboo dustpan nearby and stood up.

"You mean, you found me under the cliff?"

"That's right! At that time, you were covered in wounds. Fortunately, you were still alive. Grandma used more than half of a thousand-year-old ginseng and several doses of decoction to save you!"

Millennium ginseng?seriously!But seeing the girl's clear eyes, it didn't look like she was lying.

Zhang Qiling remembered that when he fell off the cliff, the Crow Queen also jumped down with him. I don't know how she is now?
"Did you see another girl under the cliff?" Zhang Qiling asked nervously.

"Another girl?" The girl shook her head, "No! I only saw you. Besides, our place is isolated from the world, and almost no one has ever come in. Just a few days ago, a lost fisherman broke in for no reason. , stayed here for a few days, and has already left."

After hearing the girl say that she hadn't seen the Crow Queen, Zhang Qiling didn't know if she should let go.The Crow Queen has an indissoluble bond with crows, and maybe the large group of crows rescued her.

When he fell, at the very moment of landing, Zhang Qiling woke up, quickly took out the Luoyang shovel from the system, and inserted it into the cliff, but because the rock was loose, he still fell down.But this urgent shovel buffered the speed of the descent, otherwise it would be a disaster if he fell directly from such a steep cliff!
According to what the girl said, she should be just an ordinary mountain village girl, and she doesn't seem to have anything to do with the faceless girl who turned into a human.But why is the faceless girl so similar to the girl in front of her?Zhang Qiling was puzzled again.

"What's your name?"

"Ling'er." The girl's face flushed slightly.

Zhang Qiling remembered that the old woman who came in just now seemed to call her Ling'er.

"Ling'er..." Zhang Qiling pondered, "It actually has the same word as my name."

The girl was stunned: "What's the young master's name?"

"My name is Zhang Qiling." Since this girl is not a monster, there is nothing to hide.

"Zhang Qiling." Ling'er said word by word, with a look of joy on her pretty face, "Sure enough, the name is the same as mine, with the word 'Ling' in it."

"My surname is Zhang, and my bow is Zhang. What about you?"

Ling'er shook her head: "I don't know, my mother-in-law said, she picked me up in the peach blossom forest, so she doesn't know my last name."

It turned out to be an orphan, what a poor girl!Fortunately, she stopped her hand in time just now, otherwise she would have killed her with a shovel?

According to what Ling'er said, her life was saved by her and the old woman, so they were his saviors.Heroes have been saving beauties since ancient times. Unexpectedly, Zhang Qiling was saved by a beauty today!
"Peach Blossom Forest?" Zhang Qiling thought of the nine skeletons he saw in the Peach Blossom Forest, and his back felt a little chilly.

"There is a large peach blossom forest outside our village. The peach blossoms are in full bloom all the year round like spring, but they never produce peaches. Is it strange?" The girl smiled mischievously.

"Really? Only flowers but no fruit?"

"However, few people in our village go deep into the peach forest. It is said that there is a mist-like poisonous miasma in the forest. Once you are infected by the poisonous miasma, you will not be able to get out." Ling'er said with a serious expression.

"Oh..." Zhang Qiling remembered that when he met the nine skulls, the peach blossom forest suddenly became white mist, and then the pink peach blossoms gradually turned blood red!

"I heard that once people are poisoned by the poisonous miasma, they will lose their minds and have hallucinations. Therefore, if you don't know the way, you must never break in."

Can poisonous miasma make people hallucinate?Could it be that climbing up the cliff by oneself and seeing the faceless woman were hallucinations?
Didn't he encounter the Peach Blossom Demon, but jumped off by himself? !So, are the nine skeletons also hallucinations?
Now Zhang Qiling wondered if he was hallucinating when he saw a beautiful woman taking a bath by the deep pool under the waterfall.

"Little brother, where did you come from? Why did you fall off the cliff?" Linger asked curiously.

"I took my younger sister out to play, but I got lost and strayed into the peach blossom forest. I somehow climbed up the cliff and fell from it." Zhang Qiling replied half-truthfully.

"Oh, it turned out to be like this. You must have been poisoned by the poisonous miasma, which is why you did abnormal things. But the cliff is so high...you are really lucky!" Ling'er stuck out her tongue in fear, truly Playful and cute.

Zhang Qiling found that Ling'er's coarse clothes were stained with the concoction. Thinking of his previous rude behavior, he felt embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry! I woke up from a nightmare just now. I must have scared you!"

"It's okay! But, your eyes were so scary just now! I thought you were a bad person!" Ling'er stroked her chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Zhang Qiling raised the corners of his mouth and joked: "How can a bad guy be as handsome as me!"

"Handsome? What is handsome?" Linger looked at him curiously.

This girl doesn't even know what "handsome" means. It can be seen that this is an isolated and impoverished mountain village with underdeveloped information, so she doesn't know the meaning of "handsome".

"'Handsome' means handsome and unrestrained." Zhang Qiling took the opportunity to praise himself again.

Ling'er tilted her head and looked at Zhang Qiling carefully, and murmured: "The young master has a majestic appearance and extraordinary bearing. He is indeed much more handsome than the elder brothers and uncles in our village."

Zhang Qiling couldn't help but smile, this girl is really innocent, simple and cute!
