Fuzi was extremely wary of Feng Baichuan, who was brought back by Tang Zhongbai and the other two. In this place full of traps, no one could trust a person who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Jiang Muxia told everyone his life story in a few words, and everyone softened their hearts and agreed to take him off the island.

Faced with the current deadlock, even Tang Zhongbai was helpless.

They were at the top of the mountain. Standing on the edge and looking down, the grass as tall as a person was like a thin path winding towards the foot of the mountain. Along the path grew locust trees of varying thicknesses, and she saw traces of knife cuts on the thicker trees.

Jiang Muxia was delighted and picked up a handful of round stones from the ground, throwing them one by one onto the weed path. Even after she had thrown all the stones in her hand, she did not find any mechanism on the path that had triggered any reaction.

She leaped onto a sturdy pear tree at the side of the mountain, landed her feet on a slightly thicker branch, held the trunk with one hand, and leaned down the mountain to check the situation.

The mountain was not very high, only about ten feet high. The grass at the foot of the mountain was lush and green, and the ground was covered with large and small rubble. She looked into the distance, and not far from the foot of the mountain, the view was wide and the trees were getting fewer and fewer.

Under the few trees there are rows of large mud-sealed jars, and on the far left of the jars there are two bulges.

She looked further ahead and saw a corner of the house.

That's Wuquan Villa, right? Jiang Muxia's face was filled with joy. When she saw the house, she had a plan in mind.

She jumped down from the tree, walked in front of the crowd, held the whip in her hand, and said, "Wait for me here, I'll be back soon."

She turned around and walked towards the narrow path covered with weeds. Tang Zhongbai was afraid that she might get into an accident, so he followed her closely.

She came to the edge of the mountain and swung the whip in her hand at the small tree below. When the whip was wrapped around the small tree, she walked quickly down along the path.

The road under the weeds was extremely uneven, she took one deep step and one shallow step, trying to balance her body, and soon she came to the small tree. She let go of the whip and then swung it downwards.

Tang Zhongbai, who was following behind her, finally understood that she was going to go down the mountain from this path and enter the villa. He naturally believed that with her ability, it would be easy for her to go down to the bottom of the mountain smoothly.

The only thing that worried him was that if there were traps along the way, it would be very difficult to avoid hidden weapons on such a steep cliff.

He called out to Jiang Muxia, "Wait. I'll go ahead, you follow me."

He didn't allow her to refute, and quickly walked past her, took the whip from her hand, and walked down the safety rope made of the whip. Jiang Muxia didn't argue with her, and followed him down.

The slope became steeper as they went down, and finally they could only sit on the weeds and slide down.

Apart from the uneven road and the pain in their flesh, nothing unexpected happened along the way, and no mechanism was triggered.

Soon, the two arrived at the bottom of the mountain.

Jiang Muxia retracted the whip and the two of them walked inside.

The scene at the foot of the mountain was similar to what she had seen. There were still a large number of pear trees planted here. Green pears as big as a baby's fist were densely hanging on the trees, looking at the two uninvited guests.

Jiang Muxia looked at these fruits which were much larger than the pears on the trees outside. She reached out to pick one, put it under her nose and sniffed it. It had the smell of unripe pears.

She didn't eat it and put it in her pocket.

"Come on, let's go inside."

To prevent any accidents, the two men put their weapons back in their hands.

When I approached the big jar, I discovered that there was a wooden shed next to the earthen wall on the right. Jars of different sizes were neatly stacked in the shed, and those near the outside were covered with three layers of straw mats.

The two of them knew without even looking that the jars were filled with wine.

Further ahead were rows of grain fields and vegetable plots in a chessboard pattern. The fields were planted with rice, which had already sprouted due to the sufficient water supply and was looking at them with its head tilted. The vegetable plots were planted with Chinese cabbage, eggplant, cucumber, and green onion, which were lush and green and very pleasing to the eye.

The reason why Chu Ruo didn't leave the island for many years was that he relied on self-sufficiency. If it weren't for people like them coming to disturb him, his life would have been ordinary.

Jiang Muxia sighed, if his daughter were still alive and always by his side, what a wonderful life this kind of pastoral life would be.

Maybe, he already has children and grandchildren around him, enjoying the happiness of family.

After passing the grain field and turning left, you will see the two bulges she saw on the mountain.

When the two men got closer, they could see clearly that they were two tombs built with stone slabs.

There are names written on the stone tablets in front of the graves. One reads, "Grave of beloved wife Tang Li", and the other reads, "Grave of beloved daughter Chu Xin".

They were the wife and daughter of the great doctor Chu Ruo. The grave was spotless, with a large number of flowers and plants planted around it, and the fragrance was fragrant. Fresh fruits and snacks were placed in front of the grave, and the incense burner was burning brightly.

It seems that Chu Ruo takes good care of them.

Tang Zhongbai's face became heavy. He pulled Jiang Muxia to Tang Li's grave and knelt down.

There was relief in his voice. After he kowtowed three times to the grave, he spoke, "Aunt, I finally found you. My family has been looking for you for so many years, but I didn't expect that you had already passed away. I heard from my family that they went to great lengths to bring you back because they felt sorry for you, a spoiled girl, suffering outside. Grandpa wanted to bring my uncle back home with him, but he didn't want to. The conflict between the two sides unfortunately injured you."

Tang Zhongbai took three sticks of incense, lit them and put them in the incense burner, and then said: "After grandpa and grandma knew that you were seriously injured, they severely punished the guards who went to lead the people. They wanted to find you again, but they couldn't find you. Knowing your whereabouts during their lifetime can be a comfort to them."

Jiang Muxia finally knew that when Xu Da first saw her, he said that she looked like Xin'er. Later, when Nanny Jiang and Madam saw her, they were surprised by her appearance.

She understood. Xu Da said she looked like Chu Xin, while the nanny and the lady said she looked like Tang Li.

It turns out that fate had already paved the way for them, waiting for them to come over and return to their original positions.

A gust of wind blew, and the trees, flowers and plants made a rustling sound. A wisp of cigarette smoke blew into Jiang Muxia's eyes, making her scream and close her eyes and rub them.

Tang Zhongbai helped her up, and when he turned around, a man in black with a straight back and disheveled hair was standing behind him.

The two were startled and took two steps back. Tang Zhongbai stood in front of her and asked the man in black, "Who are you?"

The man in black said in a leisurely voice: "Where did this ignorant little thief come from to bump into my Wuquan Villa? He must have some skills."

The two were startled. Jiang Muxia stepped forward and asked respectfully, "You are the miraculous doctor Chu Ruochu."

When the man in black saw her, he rushed to her like a madman, yelling "Xin'er, Xin'er" and holding her in his arms, "My dear daughter, where have you been all these years? You made me wait so long. It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. Xu Da, that brat, took you away for so many years, wait and see how I'll deal with him."
