Small Farmer Medical God

Chapter 1867 - 1862: Accident

Hearing her speak so openly, Xiaobei gave her a deep look and said playfully in a low voice, "Don’t just take responsibility for me today! Why not take responsibility for me in the future too?"

"The future? Sure, but it depends on how you behave!"

"I’ll definitely behave well!"

As he spoke, Xiaobei quickly strode to catch up.

Seeing Xiaobei catching up, Cao Lingbing giggled and quickened her pace.

The whole day, Xiaobei and she wandered through all the places.

Xiaobei revisited the spots he previously found interesting, but didn’t discover anything particularly fascinating.

This left Xiaobei a bit disappointed.

However, having already set his expectations, Xiaobei wasn’t too upset.

...

"Alright, today’s tour ends here? Are you satisfied with the service of your guide?"

In the forest bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, Cao Lingbing looked at Xiaobei, curious as a butterfly among flowers.

Noticing her anticipation, Xiaobei smiled slightly and chuckled, "More than satisfied, I’m absolutely satisfied."

Even though Xiaobei was flattering her, Cao Lingbing was still very happy. A smile spread across her face, forming two cute dimples as she lazily glanced at Xiaobei and responded with a languid voice, "Xiaobei, you’re really good with words. Well, it’s getting late and I’m a bit hungry, let’s go back!"

"Yeah! I’m a bit hungry too! Let’s go back and eat!"

Talking, they walked back with a composed air, as the sunset stretched their shadows longer and closer together...

...

At night, as Xiaobei prepared to rest, he suddenly remembered his agreement with that old man...

Knowing he couldn’t break his promise, Xiaobei stood up!

After quietly opening the room door, Xiaobei glanced at their rooms, ensured they were all resting, and then slipped out of the house like a shadow.

Before leaving, Xiaobei had a word with Treasure-hunting Rabbit, Hei, and Xiaobai...

He asked them to ensure her safety...

Five minutes later, Xiaobei appeared at the agreed meeting spot.

He glanced at the deep pool brushed by the cold wind and spoke lightly, "Come out!"

After speaking, Xiaobei waited silently.

A minute later, Xiaobei furrowed his brow.

Because there was absolutely no activity.

"Weren’t we supposed to meet? Did he have something come up?"

Thinking this, Xiaobei called again, but still got no response.

Frowning, Xiaobei walked over to the gazebo next to the deep pool.

Here, Xiaobei saw a pool of blood.

"Looks like something happened after I left...!"

Thinking this, Xiaobei quickly channeled the Nine Wood True Qi to his ears.

This boosted Xiaobei’s hearing by more than ten times...

With the amplification, Xiaobei listened intently.

A few seconds later, Xiaobei looked towards the eight o’clock direction.

Over there, Xiaobei sensed some activity.

Without hesitation, Xiaobei sprinted crazily in that direction...

...

"At first, I thought you were already dead, didn’t expect you to still be alive! But your condition isn’t that great! Yet, even so, you’re not dead; indeed, the saying ’a bad life is better than a good death’ holds true."

In a clearing in the forest, a middle-aged man smiled slyly at the former family head of the Cao Family.

He felt truly emotional at this moment...

Because he was completely different from before.

If it weren’t for knowing him so well, he wouldn’t have been able to recognize him at a glance...

The Cao Family Head looked at him with a calm expression, coughed lightly, and spoke indifferently, "Just barely hanging on! You might as well consider me dead. I’m not here to contest anything with you anymore, so I hope you won’t push me too far."

The Cao Family Head knew who he was...

And also knew why he was here.

He knew he wasn’t his match now, so he showed weakness directly.

Hearing such a weak statement, the man sneered, "Consider you dead? No way! How can we consider you dead if you’re not? Besides, I’m here to catch up with you, and it’s not good to run away like that, right? After all, we’ve known each other for many years!"

Hearing such mockery, the Cao Family Head realized he was not planning to let him go.

He silently sighed and looked grimly at this middle-aged man, "How did you know I was still alive?"

The Cao Family Head found it quite strange...

Because he had vanished for so many years, reasonably, he shouldn’t have known he was still alive, so reasonably, he shouldn’t have appeared before him.

Previously, because he had an agreement with Xiaobei, he had been waiting beside the deep pool.

At night, he heard footsteps and thought it was Xiaobei, but it wasn’t.

Upon seeing this person, he knew things were bad, so he ran directly.

But was still caught here...

"It was actually a fluke; we were here to dig for treasure! I was bored and wandering around, and that’s when I bumped into you!"

Hearing his explanation, the Cao Family Head’s face changed dramatically, "You all? You mean others are here besides you?"

"Of course, after all, the Yao Ling occupying your Cao Family is quite powerful now! Naturally, we have to treat it seriously."

Hearing him mention Yao Ling, the Cao Family Head’s face became even more grim!

Quickly, he spoke hoarsely, "So it seems you’ve investigated beforehand?"

"Yes, we investigated beforehand! So this time, we’ve brought many people; even if that Yao Ling is somewhat skillful, it won’t matter."

The Cao Family was once a powerful family!

So everyone knew the former dominator must have some astonishing treasures...

This was also why many families around wanted to come treasure hunting.

However, they were all a bit apprehensive...

So previously, they were just investigating, but now that they’ve clarified, they’re ready to act prudently.

"I can give you all the treasures, but you must not harm anyone, okay?"

He looked playfully at the pleading Cao Family Head and coldly sneered, "Oh, are you so afraid of death?"

"I’m not afraid of death! As long as you promise me this, I’ll even commit suicide in front of you."

"I’d really like to see you commit suicide, but I’m not interested in agreeing to your terms because I’m not the one calling the shots this time. Now, come with me! I believe you won’t make me use force."

"I’ll offer up everything, and you still won’t let us go? Do you really have to exterminate us?"
