Chapter 467 Discovered①
There was a long distance between the house where the Jiang siblings lived and the slightly dilapidated woodshed.
The woodshed was built by the previous owner of the house. Because it was a bit far away from the house that Jiang Yuli and his family had just built, he abandoned it.
Furthermore, Jiang Yuli would go to the street market to set up a stall every day, and often had to go out early and not return home until late at night.
Because of this, he only went to the woodshed a few times. After all, he hardly used it on weekdays.
And his second sister, who was pretentious and scheming, would naturally never take the initiative to walk into the woodshed unless there was something going on.
However, what was strange was that in the past two days, his second sister had been going in and out of the woodshed frequently, which was unusual for her.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong. There must be some unspeakable secret hidden in it.
So, Jiang Yuli decided that while his second sister was out, he would go to the woodshed and take a good look to find out what was the reason that made his second sister go in and out of the dirty woodshed so frequently.
Jiang Yuli carefully held an oil lamp and walked slowly and quietly into the woodshed.
The faint light flickered in the darkness, as if it would be swallowed up by the endless darkness at any time.
At this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a strange man lying in the corner!
In an instant, a strong sense of crisis came over me.
As expected, the man lying in the bed seemed to notice a stranger breaking in and suddenly jumped up from the quilt.
Holding a sharp dagger tightly in his hand, he stabbed straight at Jiang Yuli like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, with unstoppable momentum.
Fortunately, however, King Kang was already seriously injured, so the strength he exerted at this moment was naturally greatly reduced.
In addition, Jiang Yuli has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, so he is quite agile.
He swiftly bent sideways and cleverly avoided the fatal blow, then struck back with his backhand, his movements smooth and seamless.
King Kang's attack not only failed, but also caused him to suffer a great loss. He fell heavily to the ground, groaned in pain, and coughed twice.
"Who are you? What are you doing hiding in my woodshed?" Jiang Yuli asked sternly with his eyes wide open.
King Kang was afraid that his identity would be exposed, and his originally cold eyes immediately softened.
"Hey, young man! Listen to me, I was seriously injured and it was a young girl who saved my life."
"My wounds have not yet healed, so I beg you to allow me to stay here for a few more days. In return, I will give you a generous reward later." King Kang said earnestly.
However, King Kang did not know Jiang Yuli, and Jiang Yuli knew nothing about King Kang.
At first, King Kang mistakenly thought that Jiang Yuli would be as greedy for money as his sister Jiang Yaqi, but the facts disappointed him.
"No need for that. Money means nothing to me. I can give you two days to recuperate, but after two days, you must leave here immediately." Jiang Yuli responded firmly.
As a warrior himself, he could tell at a glance that King Kang was seriously injured, and deduced that this man must be in great trouble.
Otherwise, why would King Kang hide in his own remote and simple woodshed and send his second sister to the clinic to seek medical treatment and get medicine?
Jiang Yuli understood that his own strength was limited and he really did not want to get involved in meaningless disputes.
Moreover, the situation in the imperial city is turbulent now. If you are not careful, you may lose your life by provoking someone you should not provoke.
After getting his second sister back, he must remind her not to put herself in danger for the sake of small gains.
Don't regret it until it's too late.
After hearing what he said, King Kang nodded in agreement.
"Don't worry, I won't stay here for long. I will leave once my injuries get better." The young man said with a firm look.
After hearing this, Jiang Yuli felt relieved and turned away without hesitation.
However, King Kang did not take his eyes off the young man's receding figure.
Instead, he stared at her thoughtfully, as if trying to see through her thin figure to see the secrets deep in her heart.
The little boy looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, but his temperament was unusually calm and sophisticated, totally different from the ordinary fifteen or sixteen year old boy.
His deep eyes revealed a wisdom and determination beyond his age, which made people look at him with admiration.
At this moment, King Kang thought to himself: What kind of hardships did this boy go through to have such an extraordinary mind?
Perhaps, there is an unknown story hidden in him...
However, he had no time to take care of other things, because the most urgent task before him was to find a way to escape from this imperial city.
After all, staying here any longer means more danger and uncertainty.
So he racked his brains to think of various possible ways to escape, and immersed himself in them completely, as if everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
Time passed quietly, and night fell unknowingly, but he still frowned, searching desperately for a glimmer of hope.
Finally, after some careful consideration, he seemed to have some clues and felt a little more relaxed.
Just as he was about to lie down and rest for a while, a sound of light footsteps came from afar - it turned out that Jiang Yaqi was back!
Although she failed to get a doctor, she did not return empty-handed.
She was seen holding two bottles of precious wound medicine and a dose of fever-reducing medicine in her hands, with a trace of fatigue and impatience on her face.
"I have bought the medicine for you. Should I apply the medicine to you or should you do it yourself?" Jiang Yaqi asked softly, with a hint of concern and hesitation in her tone.
The man frowned, as if enduring the pain, and said slowly: "No need to trouble you, please go and make me some antipyretic medicine." His voice was low and hoarse.
Jiang Yaqi nodded slightly and replied, "Okay." After that, she handed the golden wound medicine in her hand to the man without hesitation, then turned and left.
When Jiang Yaqi returned to their room, she found her brother sitting quietly beside the table. His expression was extremely serious, and his eyes were staring straight at the door, as if he was waiting for someone or something to arrive.
Jiang Yaqi could not help but be stunned, with a strange feeling in her heart. The familiar yet strange brother in front of her made her feel inexplicably nervous.
"Yu Li...you, you're back? Have you eaten?" Jiang Yaqi stuttered, trying to break the awkward silence.
However, as soon as she said this, she realized that her behavior was a little unnatural, and even a little guilty.
This is the first time she cares about her younger brother.
