Lu Xiyue was startled, quite surprised.

In the original text, after he was dispatched to Lingnan with the original owner, he never mentioned that he knew how to make farm tools.

Could it be that my actions these days have worked.

Thinking about it this way, he doesn't seem to hate himself as much as before, and sometimes he can chat a few words.

That's a really good start.

Seeing the rapid change in her expression, Xiao Yunheng thought she didn't believe it, straightened his back slightly, and explained for the first time: "I found it interesting when I was young, and I read some books about it."

Lu Xiyue had no doubts about having him, so it would be great to be able to save this trip, but, with his body, he might not be able to use it well as a farm tool.

Xiao Yunheng saw concern in those dark eyes, and felt a little helpless in his heart.

"I can count my body..."

"Farewell." Lu Xiyue interrupted him, and after careful consideration, she still said: "The farm tools don't cost much, just a trip, and it just so happens that Village Chief Zhao is also going to the market to buy saltpeter."

Xiao Yunheng didn't expect to be rejected, he opened and closed his thin lips, and finally swallowed the words under the calm gaze of the other party.

It had been five days since the debris in the field had been completely cleaned up. During this period, Village Chief Zhao and the villagers cleaned out a room, gathered reliable people, and learned how to make ice with Lu Xiyue.

Previously, the first batch of harvest was sold at a low price. Now that they can make ice to keep it fresh, why not sell lychees at a good price.

Having benefited from Lu Xiyue, all the villagers in Dashan Village were very polite when they met Lu Xiyue and others.

There were even young unmarried young men in the family who secretly inquired with the village chief about the relationship between Lu Xiyue and Xiao Yunheng.

The two came here together with Lu's mother, and I haven't heard of any relationship, anyway, they don't look like a couple.

As a result, Village Chief Zhao smiled and broke the minds of those people.

Whoever said that they are not a couple, he has already asked Aunt Lu, and he has worshiped heaven and earth seriously in the capital.

A group of people secretly said that it was a pity that Mrs. Lu was born beautiful and virtuous, and she had a good temper, so she got married at a young age.

Thinking of the handsome and unparalleled appearance of the young man, it seems that it is not incomprehensible. It is really rare for such a pair of talented and beautiful people to be assigned here, and they will never leave.

Lu Xiyue and Xiao Yunheng didn't know that these folks already regarded them as affectionate and fateful mandarin ducks, and they were busy working as usual.

The firewood he picked up a few days ago was about the same. Xiao Yunheng wanted to take care of himself, and Lu's mother and Lu Xiyue wouldn't let him do heavy work, so easy things like picking up firewood naturally wouldn't stop him.

In summer, it also gets dark slowly. Lu Xiyue got a handful of green shallots, kneaded them for half an hour, kneaded them into scallion oil, rolled them into cakes, and stuck them in the pot. Soon after, the smell wafted out of the room.

After Mother Lu cooked the porridge, she smelled the aroma but was not very interested, she frequently looked up and looked out the window.

It's getting late, why hasn't this kid Yun Heng come back?

Lu Xiyue also felt strange, usually at this time, he would have already packed the firewood to help watch the fire.

She tried her best to recall the plot of the original book. After Xiao Yunheng arrived in Dashan Village, nothing happened. At most, he had frequent troubles with the original owner.

But she felt faintly uneasy.

After hesitating for a moment, she decided to go to the mountains to find someone. If this continues, it will be dark.

Mother Lu stopped her, she was worried that Xiao Yunheng was true, but her daughter's safety was equally important.

"I think it's better to ask the villagers to help us go together. It's getting dark soon. It's too dangerous for you to be a girl."

Looking at Mother Lu, she shook her head: "They are all busy with farm work, so I'm afraid they won't be free, mother, don't worry, if I can't find anyone after dark, I'll come back and ask them for help."

Mother Lu sighed, and agreed: "Alright, you must be careful."

"Okay, mother, you eat first."

Putting on a coat casually, Lu Xiyue walked into the mountain without stopping.

The evening sky was dyed red by the clouds, and it was still hot on the face. She came to the place where Xiao Yunheng usually collected firewood. There were man's footprints on the dewy muddy mountain, but she didn't see anyone.

Seeing the red color of the sky gradually fade away, Lu Xiyue followed her footprints to the depths of the forest, avoiding the branches passing by her eyebrows, her heart gradually sank.

She came to this area once, and when she heard wolves howling while picking wild vegetables, she never came again, but the footprints came this way.

Also, when passing by just now, the surrounding treetops were hanging down, and the wounds were neat, and it was obvious at a glance that they were chopped off with a sharp weapon.

Thinking of a certain possibility, her face became more serious.

Finally, before the sky completely darkened, she found Xiao Yunheng unconscious in a hunting trap, and beside him lay a dead body.

Surprised on her face, she jumped into the trap without hesitation, helped him up halfway, and shook his head: "Xiao Yunheng, Xiao Yunheng, wake up."

No one responded.

Lu Xiyue clearly saw the wound on his shoulder, his clothes were cut a lot, half of his chest was stained red with blood, it was shocking.

The corpse next to him was wearing black armor, with a sweat towel covering his face, a dagger stuck in his heart, and his eyes were wide open, as if he was dying.

Obviously the assassination of Xiao Yunheng was unsuccessful and he was counter-killed. As for who sent this assassin, it goes without saying.

Saving people was the most important thing, Lu Xiyue couldn't think so much, so she went to find the nearest herbal medicine that could stop the bleeding.

Fortunately, few people come here in the deep mountains, and there are many herbs hidden under the leaves of dead trees. She quickly found what she needed, picked more than a dozen plants, crushed one of them, and tore off his skirt, revealing the strong chest. A chilling wound.

Covered with herbs, she tore off the hem of her clothes and wound up the wound.

There were still a few small wounds on his body, but they were not serious. She applied herbal medicine, and finally carried him on her back, and went down the mountain with difficulty step by step.

"Xiao Yunheng, I really owe you." She gritted her teeth, breathing unsteadily: "If you turn around in the future and trouble me again, it would be unkind."

The young man wasn't overly strong, but just like that, the figure that was a head taller than her made her panting, and almost fell down several times.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Mother Lu was pacing back and forth at home, struggling to find someone for help, when the door outside suddenly rang.

Lu Xiyue rushed in with someone behind her back: "Mom, go get some hot water, he's injured."

"Injured!" Lu's mother raised her voice, she caught a glimpse of the young man's bloody clothes, and her face suddenly turned pale. She was afraid that she would not delay, so she hurried to the kitchen to fetch hot water and came back.

"Why are you injured, Yue'er, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." After receiving the hot water, she took off all the clothes on Xiao Yunheng's upper body, "I don't know what happened, but he passed out when I arrived."

About the assassin, we can't tell Mother Lu for the time being, lest she find out that she will be frightened all day long.
