Chapter 591 Her Light Has Arrived
After they left, Du Mingxian came out of the space. She originally wanted to leave the forest, but now she just wanted to quietly follow them and take a look. She followed a few people all the way.
As a result... they returned to the village where the tiger cub lived.
Du Mingxian really had no choice. She couldn't just go with them in broad daylight, so she went to the cliff at the cave entrance, where the view was good and she could see the general situation of the village.
She held binoculars and watched as the man carried Zhao Di into a courtyard. The courtyard was quite large. Zhao Di was carried directly back to a room, and the door of the room was facing her, so she could see her clearly.
Of the two boys who were with Zhao Di, only the taller one went in. After a while, the two of them came out, and no one else went into Zhao Di's room. The two boys were drying medicine in the yard.
It wasn't until just before sunset that Zhao Di came out of her room. After the group ate dinner in the courtyard, they lit lamps and studied in the main room. Once they had finished studying, they went to sleep separately.
While they were studying, Du Mingxian had already arrived outside the courtyard, but fearing the thatched roof might not be sturdy, she didn't dare go up, for fear of some accident.
However, she has a cheat device. The moment she gets onto the roof, she enters a spatial dimension where she can see several people studying.
After feeding the baby, wiping away the poop, and changing the diaper, she played with the baby who was still awake for a little while. After the baby fell asleep, she stared outside.
After the others returned to the house, she didn't dare to go immediately and waited quietly.
As a result... half an hour later, from the room of the two young men, the round-faced man was snoring, while the other one was not.
However, the lights were on in Zhao Di's room. Half an hour later, she came out of the space and leaped to the door. Through the crack in the door, she saw Zhao Di making medicine inside.
The lighting wasn't very bright, and a large table was covered with medicine. In this environment, with her injured half-face, Zhao Di looked somewhat frightening.
Du Mingxian saw that the door was locked from the inside, so she didn't dare to knock or call out to Zhao Di. After thinking it over, she went into her spatial dimension and wrote "Zhao Di, it's me"—four words—before slipping the paper through the crack in the door.
After she put it in, she observed it from inside the space.
When Zhao Di saw the paper coming in, she didn't panic. Instead, she slowly took the lamp and went forward. When she saw the two characters "Zhao Di" on the paper, she was quite shocked and immediately reached for the door bolt.
When Du Mingxian saw her pull the door latch, she quickly came out of the space. The door opened, and the two looked at each other.
In the dim light, Zhao Di could see Du Mingxian's face clearly. She was so excited that she didn't move. Du Mingxian hurriedly reached out and covered her mouth, making a shushing gesture.
Zhao Di pulled Du Mingxian into the house. Just as she closed the door, the front door was pushed open, and the person quickly walked to Zhao Di's room and knocked on the door.
"I sense someone's there. Do you need anything?"
"I didn't see anyone." Zhao Di's palms were sweating nervously. Her voice was calm as she spoke, but her eyes were searching for a place where someone could hide.
The person outside wasn't about to let it go. "Open the door, I'll search you. If there's really no one here, I'll leave."
"I said there was no one there, and that's it. You came into my room in the middle of the night. How can I explain myself tomorrow?"
“The master instructed that your safety is the top priority. If you don’t open the door, I will just push it open.”
Zhao Di was extremely anxious. Seeing this, Du Mingxian gently patted her hand, pointed to the door, and gave her a reassuring look, telling her to open the door.
Zhao Di shook her head, and Du Mingxian gently patted her hand, signaling her to go.
Zhao Di turned to open the door, while Du Mingxian hid behind the wardrobe and entered the space.
When the door opened, Zhao Di turned around but didn't see Du Mingxian, but she was still very worried.
Just as the door opened, the man rushed in, looking around and searching every nook and cranny. After searching and finding no one, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's good that no one's here. Your safety comes first. I'll go out now."
Zhao Di was very nervous inside, but she kept a dark expression on her face. "When Master comes back, I will tell him what happened tonight."
The man didn't say a word and just left.
Zhao Di closed the door and listened to the man leave before letting out a sigh of relief. When she turned around, she found Du Mingxian already standing by the cabinet. She ran forward nervously, tears welling up in her eyes, her voice choked with emotion, "Auntie."
Du Mingxian reached out and wiped away her tears, deliberately lowering her voice, "Don't cry, I'm here, don't attract any more people."
"well."
"Didn't you go to the capital with Doctor Lin's senior brother? What are you doing here?"
She always thought she had gone to a big city, but who would have thought she would end up in a village, a village where everyone was a bad person.
Zhao Di looked somewhat disappointed. "Doctor Lin is a good doctor, but his senior brother... they are all descendants of imperial physicians from the previous dynasty."
Seeing that Du Mingxian wasn't surprised at all after she revealed her past dynasty identity, Zhao Di felt slightly relieved. "Auntie, they weren't good people, so why are you here?"
"I'm here to investigate them."
Zhao Di was shocked, "You...you yourself?"
"Just me for now."
Zhao Di panicked and grabbed Du Mingxian's hand tightly. "Auntie, listen to me. You have to leave now. After you get out, go up the mountain on the left and go around through the mountains. There are people guarding the village entrance. You won't be able to get out."
"It's dangerous here, you can't come, you can't come."
Seeing her concern and anxiety, Du Mingxian gently shook her head, "Don't worry, since I'm here, I must have come prepared, and I won't let anyone bully me, so don't worry."
"But."
Du Mingxian gently patted her hand, "Don't worry, don't fret. But... since your master is a descendant of the previous dynasty, if the imperial court takes action against them, you..."
Zhao Di's eyes flashed with hatred. "I wish they were all dead. I want them all to suffer a terrible death."
Seeing this, Du Mingxian knew that something serious must have happened to this girl. She gently pulled her into her arms and said, "Don't be angry, don't be angry. Your aunt is here and will definitely protect you."
Zhao Di's tears streamed down her face. Back in the village, she almost couldn't survive. Her grandmother made her and her sister go up the mountain to dig for ginseng, and they couldn't go home until they found some. She knew that no one in that family cared about their lives.
Later, she was given to a widower. If it weren't for her aunt, she... she would have really died long ago.
When she first met her master, she genuinely believed that she had met a kind person, and that all she had to do in this life was to learn medicine well and heal the sick and save lives.
A disease is easy to cure, but a person's heart is hard to heal.
The ugliest thing in this world is the human heart. The evil in human nature is innate and inherent; it will erupt at some point.
Just when she thought she could kill everyone and take them all down with her, her aunt came, and her aunt actually came.
Her light has arrived.
