Chapter 562 Zhao Xi's Request
The man in black didn't know why his master wanted to meet this lady alone. He didn't answer Shen Rong. After conveying his master's words, he left the room silently.
Shen Rong didn't care, but she felt a little relieved.
It’s not that she has no sympathy. Zhao Xi has been saved by her twice, and each time his body was covered with knife and sword wounds. She doesn’t know who he has offended. She has old and young people in her family. To be honest, she is somewhat worried that she will be implicated by him.
Now that the person has been rescued, the sooner the other party can leave, the better. Everyone will be happy.
Although Zhao Xi's injuries are still quite serious now, he can be moved if he is taken care of properly.
At this time, Shen Rong still thought that the other person wanted to thank her and say goodbye.
She packed up briefly and headed towards the guest room.
She came to the door of the guest room and knocked on it.
"Come in." A deep voice came from inside.
Shen Rong opened the door after hearing that.
Zhao Xi was the only one in the room.
He looked pale and sat on the bed leaning against the pillow, looking like he was waiting for someone.
The companion who was more seriously injured than him was no longer in the room.
Shen Rong didn't think much about it, but when she saw Zhao Xi sitting up so quickly, she couldn't help but frown.
She remembered that the other person had a knife wound in his abdomen, and the wound was quite serious.
But it's only been one night, and this man just sat there. Isn't he afraid that the wound will open again?
Seeing that the other person was sitting there with a pale face but no change in expression, Shen Rong couldn't help but admire him.
If she hadn't helped Sixth Grandpa treat his wound, she would never have been able to tell that he had a cut on his stomach.
This guy is a ruthless person.
Shen Rong thought a lot in the few breaths after entering the room.
When Zhao Xi saw Shen Rong, his eyes suddenly lit up, and there was a hint of strange emotion in his eyes when he looked at Shen Rong that no one else could see.
"Sit down." Zhao Xi raised his hand and pointed to the chair beside the bed.
Shen Rong was stunned, but when she saw Zhao Xi's pale face, she didn't say anything.
Never mind, maybe she let him sit on the bedside just to make it easier for them to talk. The situation was special, so it couldn't be said to be against the rules. Besides, the other party was also her patient.
Thinking of this, Shen Rong sat down.
"Mr. Zhao's abdominal injury is quite serious. You'd better pay more attention to it." Shen Rong saw that the other party's brows were tightly frowned, and thought that he was in pain, so she couldn't help but remind him.
Zhao Xi's brows relaxed, "Thank you ma'am for your concern." He subconsciously neglected to add Changsheng's last name in front of the name.
Shen Rong felt something was a little strange, but seeing the other person's stern face, she didn't think much about it, "What do you want to see me for, sir?"
Zhao Xi pondered it over in his mind, and finally spoke directly.
"Since we last met, I often think of the first time my wife saved me."
Shen Rong's eyebrows jumped. "I remember that the young master was seriously injured at the time. My medical skills were mediocre and I didn't have the ability to save the young master. As for saving the young master, didn't Mr. Zhou tell him?"
Zhao Xi was silent for a while, then said, "My cousin told me that it was because you prayed to the mountain god in your area to heal me that I was able to save my life."
At the end he added, "There is nothing strange in this world, I believe it."
Shen Rong looked at the other person, waiting for Zhao Xi's next words.
Having said this, Shen Rong could already tell that Zhao Xi was not saying goodbye to her.
As for his purpose, she couldn't figure it out yet.
Zhao Xi looked at Shen Rong and said, "I remember that time I was seriously injured, but I recovered very quickly. Although my injury is not life-threatening, I have other things to do and cannot be delayed. So I shamelessly ask Madam to pray for me in front of the mountain god once more."
Shen Rong opened her mouth slightly, and she stammered, "Then... the mountain god is sometimes effective and sometimes not. I'm not sure I can ask the mountain god to help. I'm afraid I'll disappoint Mr. Zhao."
Zhao Xi smiled and said, "Madam, why not give it a try?"
He said with a bitter look on his face, "If it wasn't urgent and I couldn't use someone else's hands, I would definitely not embarrass Madam." He paused and continued, "If Madam still has no effect after trying it, Zhao will accept it."
Zhao Xi had never thought of using his status as emperor to order Shen Rong from the beginning, so now he could only ask Shen Rong for help as an ordinary person.
Shen Rong felt strange when she heard the other party always calling her "Madam".
But the other party had already said that, and it would be inhumane for her to refuse again.
But she couldn't just agree to it.
Shen Rong thought about it and said, "I'm afraid this won't work. The mountain god is not in the county and I'm afraid he won't be able to hear my prayers."
Zhao Xi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he glanced at Shen Rong's face casually, "Madam, do you mean that if I go to Taohua Village, I can ask the mountain god to heal my wounds?"
Shen Rong shook her head. "I'm not sure if the old mountain god will agree, but it's definitely not possible here."
She had heard from the elders in the village since she was a child that the mountain gods in each place were different. Now that they were in the county town, according to legend, the mountain god of Taohua Village naturally had no control over this place.
Since Shen Rong wants to use the name of the mountain god, she can't let anything slip in these details.
Zhao Xi seemed to believe Shen Rong's words very much. He nodded and said, "Then let's go to Taohua Village. I'm afraid we will have to trouble Madam later."
Seeing that the other party was so impatient, a trace of confusion flashed across Shen Rong's face.
This Zhao Xi is not as seriously injured and unconscious as before. Although he was seriously injured this time, he is conscious now. How can she prevent the other party from discovering the fairy cave and heal him?
Shen Rong had never thought of letting outsiders into her fairy cave, let alone letting anyone in to heal someone.
If any news about such a treasure that can bring people back to life were to leak out, people outside would be so shocked and crazy that she would be so scared that she would die a hundred times.
Shen Rong didn't want to sacrifice her own life to save others.
Shen Rong shook her head again. "Mr. Zhao, you know that I have been in the capital for more than three years. I am no longer the devout believer I used to be. If I go to pray, I am afraid the effect will not be satisfactory. What's more, I haven't burned incense to the mountain god for a long time..."
Shen Rong didn't want to give the other person the impression that everything was simple and easy.
At this moment, she felt a little regretful. She shouldn't have been soft-hearted and exposed her secret in order to save others.
Zhao Xi's face turned paler, and he said with a bit of dejection on his face: "Zhao shouldn't have made unreasonable demands, but... there is an emergency at home, and I really can't delay. In order to travel normally, please help me try, Madam!"
He looked at Shen Rong, and his usually cold eyes now contained a hint of affection that was difficult for others to detect.
Seeing that the other party had not given up, Shen Rong moved her lips and said, "Okay, I can only try my best. If it fails, please don't blame me, Mr. Zhao..."
Although she said this, she decided in her heart to take action again, but she still looked unsure.
Zhao Xi was immediately overjoyed, her eyes falling on the other's rose-like lips intentionally or unintentionally, "Thank you, madam. Please rest assured, whether it succeeds or fails, I will not blame you."
Zhao Xi had a hunch that the mountain god might be Shen Rong's excuse or shield. In fact, she had the ability to bring the dead back to life, but she was unwilling to expose it.
Thinking about it this way, Zhao Xi could understand Shen Rong's approach. He was not dissatisfied with Shen Rong's previous procrastination. Instead, he cooperated with Shen Rong very well.
