Xie Xingzhi opened his mouth, his throat trembled, and wanted to speak, only to find that his throat was burning and painful, and he couldn't make any sound.

"Shui Shuishui! Hurry up and get some water!" The young girl in front of him hastily turned around and patted the boy behind her.

She supported Xie Xingzhi to lean against the head of the bed, soaked his lips with a small porcelain spoon, took a long time to feed him half a bowl of water, and carefully wiped off the water that flowed down his jaw.

Seeing him slowing down a little, the young girl looked at him expectantly: "Are you feeling better?"

Xie Xingzhi was still in pain all over his body, especially his right leg, but he couldn't move, and he couldn't see what was going on on his body, so he could only ask, "Excuse me... where is this?"

After speaking, he heard that his voice was no different from that of a broken gong, and it was terribly hoarse.

But the girl next to him didn't feel disgusted at all, she still smiled and said to him: "This is our Qiushui Village."

The young man behind her added: "When our eldest brother was fishing, he saw you lying in the mud by the river, covered in blood, and he was frightened to death! I brought you back quickly. Fortunately, my sister is a medical student. It counts your fate, I have taken care of you for three days, and I have saved your life from the hand of Hades."

Qiushui Village?

Xie Xingzhi's mind was still dazed, and the two spoke with a strong local accent. He guessed it should be a small fishing village near Manbei City.

"Thank you..." Xie Xingzhi looked gratefully at the young girl, bending his eyes at her.

Most of the girls that girl met in the village were stubble-faced, shirtless and unrefined rough men, and his face turned red when he smiled.

She hurriedly lowered her head, drooping her eyelashes, and laughed: "No thanks, no thanks, it's okay, the old saying goes that saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, it's easy to do, hehe, no thanks."

Although the local accent is heavy, it sounds simple and cute. Xie Xingzhi felt warm in his heart, and suddenly remembered something, and asked again: "You just said... I slept for three days?"

He continued to speak a few words, his throat became more uncomfortable, his voice fell, and he couldn't help coughing.

The young girl said "Alas", and quickly supported him and patted his back to let him breathe: "Isn't that right, for three days and three nights, if I was not still alive, I almost thought you were gone."

She fed another throat lozenge, and Xie Xingzhi finally came to his senses. After thanking him again, he quickly asked, "Am I the only one brought back by your elder brother? Is there anyone else on the shore?"

The girl blinked and looked at her brother.

The young boy shook his head lightly: "No, the only one I will go with my eldest brother is you."

Xie Xingzhi's heart sank, and he wanted to say something more, when the door was suddenly pushed open.

"Juan'er!"

The eldest brother among the two came in with a big smile: "Brother was successfully promoted today!"

"Ah! That's great!" The two people around his bed got up and embraced the young man.

"Does a promotion make you the boss?"

"I can make a lot of money in the future! Big brother is awesome!"

"Hey, I can't be considered a boss, I just got shit luck." The young man scratched his head and smiled innocently, "It is said that our company was bought by the big boss above, and we changed to a new boss. In Beishi."

"In the city?" the boy asked, "It's the one you mentioned last time..."

"That's right, that's Tianxing."

Xie Xingyi who was lying on the bed behind was stunned.

Isn't that the name of his company?

Xie Anheng insisted on taking this name at the beginning, he thought it was a bit vulgar, but he still followed him.

The three brothers and sisters all surrounded him with their backs to him, but they didn't notice his stunned expression.

The young man's face was flushed, and he was obviously very happy. He couldn't wait to share what he saw today with his younger siblings: "If you talk about young talents, I only admire the boss of this company. It is said that he is less than 20 years old this year. age."

The little boy's eyes widened: "Wow, so powerful? Isn't that younger than you?"

The young man rubbed his hair: "That's right, this boss has an older brother who is stronger than him. I heard from my colleagues that he bought up the small company below this time just to hand over his brother to his big company." Carry it forward, so as to repay my brother's kindness in raising him. In just these three days, not only our town, but many companies have been bought by him, this time it is considered lucky to have a golden thigh."

The girl standing next to her looked longingly: "Then it seems that the rich people on TV are all cold-blooded and heartless, so it may not be right."

It was inconvenient for the family to interrupt their speech, Xie Xingzhi listened quietly, but felt a little anxious.

He had such an accident right in front of Xie Anheng, he didn't know what the other party would be worried about, let alone Cen Xiangyang's whereabouts, and hoped that he would be safe and well.

He had just been in a daze for a few seconds, but he didn't expect the topic of these people to change suddenly.

"What was said on TV is not necessarily wrong. In my opinion, people like this boss are still in the minority. Just the rich gossip I told you the day before yesterday, doesn't it just show that these people are cold-blooded and ruthless?"

The young man pulled a chair and sat down, feeling thirsty, and poured another sip of water into his mouth.

"What gossip, what gossip? Why didn't you tell me?" The little boy looked up eagerly.

"What kind of gossip can be? Four days ago, the serial car accident that happened on the bridge across the river in the city was caused by conflicts among the biggest wealthy families in Manbei City."

"Is that the Xia family?" The young girl was obviously more interested in and understood this topic.

"Yes." The young man patted his thigh, "You said that brothers and sisters are so affectionate, why is this family named Xia so vicious? For the sake of the family property, the father would actually want the life of his son..."

"Cough..." Xie Xingzhi was ignored for too long, seeing that they were fascinated by the story, he had to pretend to cough to interrupt.

"Oh!" The girl was the first to react, and smiled at him embarrassedly, "Look at me, I almost forgot about it."

She hurriedly pulled the young man over to the bedside: "This is our elder brother Zhou Jintao, and he also picked you up from the river that day."

Xie Xingzhi: "Thank you, I will definitely repay you for saving my life."

"When did you wake up?" Zhou Jintao's eyes lit up, "There's nothing to be thankful for, let's talk about the repayment later, and wait for you to heal your injuries first."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Xie Xingzhi's leg: "Juan'er, since he is awake, you should quickly find a time to take him to the town, to your master. It's going to break."

Xie Xingzhi was stunned: "What's wrong with my leg?"

"It should be broken, I don't know exactly what happened." The girl named Juan'er showed a worried expression, "Can you still feel the pain now?"

Xie Xingzhi nodded: "Yes."

Not only does it work, it hurts too.

"That's good, I'm afraid it's a bad thing if you don't feel it." Juan'er breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't worry, my master is a well-known old Chinese medicine doctor in the town, and he graduated from Manbei University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The first batch of college students, he has great medical skills, and he is appointed to cure you."

The three brothers and sisters are so enthusiastic, Xie Xingzhi really feels very lucky: "I really don't know how to thank you..."

"No, no, no, no need." Zhou Jintao waved his hands again and again, "Your accent should be from the city, you city people just like to pay attention to etiquette, you can stay here with peace of mind, and other things will be healed after the injury Say it again."

"That's right, it really can't be done. When the injury is healed, you help us collect the millet in the field, and it will be repaid." Juan'er said with a smile.

They said so, Xie Xingzhi didn't continue to thank him anymore, the family was informal so as not to be annoying.

Xie Xingzhi was going to ask them to borrow a mobile phone to contact Xie Anheng, but just as he was about to speak, there was a violent slamming sound from the door of the front room.

"Anyone--"

"Anyone open the door!"

The four people in the room were startled. The three brothers and sisters looked at each other. Juan'er asked Zhou Jintao in a low voice, "Who is it? Is it your colleague?"

"No, I don't have such rude colleagues." Zhou Jintao frowned, "You two stay in the room, I'll go take a look."

"No, I'll be with you." Juan'er couldn't help but follow up, and in the end only the boy and Xie Xingzhi were left in the house.

Xie Xingzhi instinctively sensed that something was wrong.

front house.

Zhou Jintao pulled the bolt on the wooden door, and with a bang, the person at the door kicked hard, and the door almost fell on him.

"What are you doing? Who are you guys?!" Juan'er held Zhou Jintao back.

Several tall and rough men rushed in, looked around the yard, and turned a deaf ear to her words.

The leading hand pointed: "Search!"

Immediately afterwards, the other three or four people dispersed and rummaged around in the house back and forth, their actions were extremely rude, and things kept falling to the ground and breaking into pieces.

Juan'er wanted to speak, but Zhou Jintao blocked her.

Seeing that he hadn't found out why, the leading man grabbed Zhou Jintao's collar and said viciously, "If I ask you, tell me honestly, or you'll have something to eat, do you understand?"

Zhou Jintao gestured to Juan'er to be calm.

"You've been fishing in the river these days. Have you ever met a man? His name is Xie Xingzhi." He clicked on a photo from his phone. The person in the photo was handsome and handsome, and he was clearly the person in the small house.

Zhou Jintao tensed up, lowered his eyelids and shook his head expressionlessly: "I haven't seen it before."

The man's eyes were ruthless: "Don't be fucking stupid, tell me the truth!"

"I just got promoted these days, and I'm still in the company in the town. I haven't been out of the river this week. How can I meet anyone on the river?" Zhou Jintao felt uncomfortable when he was pulling his collar, and seemed a little annoyed.

The man stared at him closely, and after a few seconds, he looked back at the others.

The room was clean, nothing was found, and those people shook their heads one after another.

At this time, the walkie-talkie carried by the leader rang.

On the opposite side was a woman's voice: "How is it? Did you find anything?"

He respectfully replied: "Nothing has been found yet, old lady. Now that we have found Qiushui Village, Xiping Town, should we continue our search?"

"Continue." The other party's voice was indifferent, "It just so happens that such a small corner of the corner is found, no matter whether it is dead or alive, it will be cleaned up on the spot."

"Yes, I understand." The man let go of his hand, pushed him back vigorously, and waved his arms to the others, "Let's go!"

After speaking, he turned his head and pointed at Zhou Jintao: "What happened today, you are not allowed to go out and tell others a word, do you hear that? Otherwise, your family will have good fruit to eat, and your small job in the company will not be necessary."

A group of people came in a mighty way, and left very quickly, as if they were going to the next house.

Juan'er hurriedly rushed over to lock the door, then clamped two wooden sticks on the door bolt, and dragged an old wooden table to the door.

After doing all this, she and Zhou Jintao glanced at each other, and they both saw the fear and doubt in each other's eyes.

Xie Xingzhi also heard some movement outside in the back room, and when the two brothers and sisters came in with sullen faces, they had some guesses in their hearts.

"Brother." Zhou Jintao entered the house as expected and closed the doors and windows, his eyes full of worry, "Are you called Xie Xingzhi?"

Xie Xingzhi's heart tightened, and he nodded slowly: "Yes."

Zhou Jintao: "Have you offended someone?"

"It's so scary..." Juan'er patted her chest, "Fortunately, you weren't allowed to go out with her. Just now, the group of people looked like mountain bandits and smashed the two pots in the house, saying they wanted to find you."

After hearing this, Xie Xingzhi frowned.

He thought it was Xie Anheng's person, but judging by his posture, he probably wasn't.

"We didn't tell you, don't worry." Zhou Jintao looked at his expression and comforted him, "That group of people is typically not a good thing."

Of course Xie Xingzhi knew that they hadn't confessed. If they had, the group of people would have rushed in and taken him away.

"What does the person who comes to see me look like?" he asked.

Zhou Jintao: "All of them are wearing black clothes and black suits, similar to those in TV dramas."

"Yes, there was another person with a walkie-talkie, and I heard what he said... old lady? Anyway, the person talking to him seemed to be an old woman." Juan'er added.

It's from the Shi family.

It turned out to be here so quickly.

This family saved his life, and it was impossible for him to hurt them in reverse. Xie Xingzhi had spent so many years in shopping malls in his previous life, and Xie Xingzhi knew the methods of finding people, so he instantly dispelled the idea of ​​asking them to borrow his mobile phone.

Anyway, I'm going to the town tomorrow, so don't worry about it for a while, it's safer to find a public phone and call Xie Anheng when the time comes.

"To be honest, I did business some time ago and offended some local snakes. That family is not easy to mess with, and that's how I got hurt." Xie Xingzhi quickly thought about how to deal with it in his mind, "It's possible for me to stay here. It will affect you, just send me to the town tomorrow and find a hospital to let me stay there."

Juan'er raised her eyebrows immediately: "I knew that group of people were villains at a glance. No, if they can find this place, they will definitely be able to find the town! Something will happen if you stay in the hospital."

"Yes." Zhou Jintao actually agreed, "I definitely can't keep you in the hospital. I just heard that they found you and put you directly..."

He couldn't speak, so he could only make a movement on his neck with his hands: "They're going to kill you, it's too dangerous!"

Xie Xingzhi: "I am already very grateful that you can save my life, but it is absolutely impossible for me to stay and hurt you."

Xie Xingzhi said sincerely: "Just do as I say, I can handle the rest by myself."

"How can you deal with it? You are hurt so badly..." Juan'er was still unwilling to agree, "Besides, there are so many villages in Xiping Town. They will definitely not come to our house after they have found us. It is best for you to stay here. safe."

The little boy was half-knowledgeable, but he also agreed: "Yes, yes, my sister took care of you for three days and finally rescued you. If something happens to you again, she will definitely cry!"

"..." The three brothers and sisters in Xie Xingzhi's team looked firmly and expectantly.

"Okay..." He changed his mind, Juan'er's words just now were indeed reasonable. No matter how powerful the Shi family was, they didn't have the time to look for every village several times. The places that had been excluded were indeed the last. safe.

Anyway, he wouldn't stay in the village for long, so Xie Xingzhi didn't continue to struggle.

Juan'er discussed with him the time to go to the town tomorrow, and finally left a newspaper by his bedside, so that he would not be too bored in the room alone, so she left with Zhou Jintao and the young boy .

Xie Xingzhi remembered what Zhou Jintao said when he first entered the room, his heart moved, and he picked up the stack of newspapers.

Sure enough, the headline on the entertainment section read——

[The person in charge of the largest wealthy family in Manbei City is imprisoned!Is father and son killing each other? !Money really makes people cold-blooded and ruthless! 】

This title was indeed eye-catching enough, Xie Xingzhi couldn't help but smile, and almost pulled the wound on his body again.

He flipped through it and glanced at it. This kind of entertainment section doesn't have much real information, most of it is just some media's own speculation and association, mixed with true and false news, putting some gimmicks out to attract attention and earn sales.

The only valid information in the newspaper was that Xia Jinghui had been convicted and sentenced in the first instance, but he still refused to give up and requested an appeal.

Xie Xingzhi drooped his eyelids and continued to browse.

In addition, there is a small piece of exclusive gossip at the back. Although Xie Anheng's name was not mentioned, he still analyzed this "Xia Family's new Patriarch" as an ambitious and ambitious man.

He said that he was not satisfied with the biggest wealthy family in Manbei City like the Xia family, and he was eager to expand his power to annex other families as soon as he came to power.Immediately, other wealthy families in Manbei City were in danger.

There is also a small candid photo in the lower right corner, which was captured when Xie Anheng came out of the court.

It was very blurry, with only one silhouette, but Xie Anheng could still be seen walking in a hurry, with his head slightly lowered. I wonder if he was thinking too much, but Xie Anheng felt lifeless all over his body.

Xie Xingzhi stared at the photo for a long while, feeling sleepy, and then put down the newspaper.

The next day.

Xiping Town Traditional Chinese Medicine Museum.

The town's medical resources were already tight, so they arrived early in order to avoid affecting Juan'er's master's treatment of other patients.

The doctor is an old man over half a century old, surnamed Li, with a long beard and a bit of fairy air.

He checked the injuries on Xie Xingzhi's body up and down, and pinched his leg bones.

"Master, this gentleman... can his legs still be healed?" Juan'er saw his movements, and heard Xie Xingzhi's gasp, she couldn't help but clenched her collar tightly, her face very nervous.

Dr. Li: "Why can't it be cured? Of course it can be cured. It's just a [-]-day injury. The recovery period must be a bit long, but the injury is not serious."

"Will it affect my follow-up life?" Xie Xingzhi asked.

Dr. Li shook his head with a smile: "No, not to that extent, if it is that serious, you will definitely not be able to feel your legs at that time."

Xie Xingzhi and Juan'er both breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, I see that you're in good shape...have you just had some major surgery recently?" Dr. Li asked him after taking his pulse again.

Xie Xingzhi replied truthfully: "Yes, I hurt my stomach before, and it has been about half a month since the operation was completed."

"Well, it's not a big problem. I'll take a picture later to make sure." Dr. Li scribbled on the paper, "It's just that you fell into the water and suffered from the cold after the operation. , I’ll put a splint on your leg today, and do another injection to ventilate Qi and blood up and down, so that your joints won’t get cold and the rainy days will be difficult in the future.”

"Juan'er, go downstairs and bring up two long needles."

"Okay."

Juan'er agreed and ran downstairs in a hurry. When she got the needle, Dr. Li left Xie Xingzhi alone in the consulting room, and went into another room to prepare for the treatment.

Xie Xingzhi leaned on the pillow behind his back, he got up too early and was a little sleepy, he randomly took a small cotton swab from the treatment table next to him, twirled it between his fingers to get rid of the drowsiness.

But he had sharp eyes and ears, and suddenly heard a whispered conversation coming from the lounge next door.

Someone should be changing clothes inside, rustling, and the sound sounds like two girls.

"Today's new newspaper? Show me show me!"

"Oh, you know the little gossip below. These must be fake. I want to read the analysis of the battle between the rich and powerful. That's exciting, and this new patriarch named An Heng is so handsome..."

Xie Xingzhi raised his eyebrows and turned his head slightly.

There seemed to be a little gossip at the bottom of yesterday's newspaper, in a very inconspicuous position, and the headline was about the scandalous news of wealthy families. He thought it had nothing to do with himself and Xie Anheng, so he wasn't interested in reading more.

"It's because he's handsome that I'm interested in it. You don't know if you haven't read it. The following pornographic news is much more interesting than those serious analyzes of the battles between rich and powerful families, okay?"

"What's so interesting? Isn't it just some random imagination?"

"That's not it, I think his analysis is very reasonable, and what he's talking about is... Hehe, the little secret between this new Patriarch and his nominal brother..."

Xie Xing was taken aback.

"What little secret?"

"He has that, that, that, that kind of love for his brother, that kind of unspeakable love, you understand?"

"??" The movements of Xie Xingzhi's hands froze, the cotton swab stick wobbled twice, and fell to the ground with a "click".
