Chapter 197 Visitors
Someone landed precisely at his doorstep with a parachute.
Xu Shu couldn't accept it for a moment.
But Wu Yong and Jiang Xiao couldn't help but stand up and look around. Even Mu Jinghua couldn't help but poke Xu Shu, who seemed to be dazed, and whispered, "Xu Shu, Xingxing."
"That's not a star." Xu Shu held his hand and said nervously, "I'm not here for good, you must hold on to me."
When Mu Jinghua heard Xu Shu's voice, he was startled, then he clenched Xu Shu's hand and looked at the lump that was about to fall to the ground.
Wu Yong and the others also heard what Xu Shu said and looked at him.
Xu Shu signaled them to stay calm, pulled Mu Jinghua back into the house to get a pistol, and then looked at the person who was about to land.
Based on the current wind speed and the speed of the parachute's descent, Xu Shu calculated that he would probably land where they were having dinner, so he said to Jiang Xiao, "Move the table and food away. He might crash into us in a while."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Yong exclaimed, pointing at the man who was landing quickly, and said, "Here he comes."
Jiang Xiao was a little slow to react. He stood there in a daze, watching the pile of sheets fall quickly to the ground. The person hanging underneath fell heavily onto their dining table, and was then rolled forward by the huge sheet.
It rolled several times and finally stopped at Xu Shu's feet.
Xu Shu looked at the person wrapped in the modified "parachute", kicked the huge parachute open with his toes, and then smelled a strong smell of blood.
The man wrapped in the sheets was covered in blood, his brows were furrowed, his thin lips were pale and weak, and he looked miserable, as if he would not live long.
Xu Shu was hesitating whether to save him or not, when this man came to his door wrapped in a parachute. Regardless of whether he had ulterior motives or not, he must know something.
But before he could look at Qi Huairen, a big bulge suddenly appeared on the other half of the sheet, and then a pale hand emerged from underneath.
Xu Shu heard a woman's voice shouting with full energy: "Brave man, spare his life!"
Xu Shu: ...
Mu Jinghua: ...
Everyone present:...
After a while, the woman finally revealed her face from the huge sheet. She was still disheveled and covered in mud, but she was still in good spirits.
Facing Xu Shu who was watching coldly, she immediately turned to Mu Jinghua and said with a smile: "This beautiful and kind-hearted young master, can you please be kind and find a doctor for my husband and save my life at the same time?"
"A dog's life?" Mu Jinghua was puzzled. "Where did the dog come from?"
Xu Shu wanted to say that this might be an internet slang, but before he could remind Mu Jinghua, he heard a slight dog barking from the man's arms.
Xu Shu: ...
This was the first time Xu Shu had seen a family parachuting together. He looked at Qi Huairen and said, "Dr. Qi, thank you for your help. Doctors are kind-hearted."
Qi Huairen was actually already prepared, and he immediately called Mu Jinghua: "Brother Mu, take his pulse."
"Qu Xiu, find a stretcher and carry this young man into the house. As for this young lady..."
Hearing her name being called, the woman quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Qiao Wan, I'm fine, don't worry about me."
"Qiao Wan?" Qiao Jianhong came running over after hearing the noise. "You... you're not in Shangjing, why are you here?"
Qiao Wan was stunned when she heard the voice, then turned back to stare at Qiao Jianhong. After a long while, she responded and asked uncertainly, "Brother?"
Qiao Jianhong glanced at the man being lifted onto the trestle by Qu Xiu and Jiang Xiao, and said coldly, "Where did you find this wild man? What is it about Mr. Wen Ye that you dislike? Why did you choose such a man and risk your life to save him?"
"What a wild man!" Qiao Wan was obviously in a bad mood, cursing, "Urging you to get married, urging you to get married all day long. I just like him, so what? I'll give him a legitimate status, then he won't be a wild man!"
Qiao Jianhong snorted coldly: "Let's see if he has the life to wait for you to give him a name."
Speaking of this, Qiao Wan's expression changed. She looked at Xu Shu and whispered with her mouth: "Brother, you are from the same hometown, right? Do you have medicine? Help me."
Xu Shu frowned and looked at her. She pointed at the gun that Xu Shu hid behind his back and said softly, "It's issued by the Chemical Research Institute. Model 997. If I remember correctly, you... are Xu Shu."
Before Xu Shu could reply, Qiao Jianhong said, "Don't try to be clever here. Brother Xu can't possibly..."
Before he could finish his words, Xu Shu had already arrived in front of him and knocked him unconscious with a knife. "Okay."
Qiao Wan looked at Qiao Jianhong who was slowly falling down, a trace of pity appeared on his face, but he soon recovered his composure and said to Xu Shu: "You really are exactly the same as the rumors say."
"Never talk when you can do it."
"Since you know me well." Xu Shu raised his eyebrows and looked at Mu Jinghua who was busy treating the man's injuries, then looked back at Qiao Wan, "You should know what to do."
Qiao Wan was very reluctant: "I have to wait for my husband and my dog to wake up. After that, I will tell you anything you want to know."
Xu Shu didn't force her, and asked again, "Is your husband also with you?"
"No." Speaking of this, Qiao Wan frowned and looked very distressed. "As you can see, after I came to this world, I got a cheap brother."
"They just keep urging me to get married and arrange marriages every day..." She squatted down and said weakly, "First, I'm not the real Qiao Wan, and second, I'm not really stupid, so of course I won't listen to them."
"I ran away from my marriage. Xuan Er..." She raised her chin and pointed at the man in the room. "Xuan Er was my shadow guard. Of course, I didn't know about this before I ran away from my marriage."
"I wanted to climb over the wall and leave, but I met him as soon as I reached the roof. I couldn't beat him, so I wanted to be a scoundrel, but he remained unmoved no matter how much I cried, made a scene, or even threatened to hang myself. If I said a few more words to him, he would kneel down and would only say, 'Miss, please go back home.'"
"I was very tired at the time. I really wanted to shoot him, or shoot everyone with a gun." Qiao Wan sighed heavily, as if he was still frightened by the scene at that time. "But at this time, Qiao Jianhong rushed over."
Qiao Wan rolled her eyes fiercely in the direction of Qiao Jianhong. "Qiao Jianhong, that bastard, threatened me that if I didn't want to go back and get married, he would demote me to a commoner and marry me to an idle homeless person."
"What a joke." Qiao Wan rolled her eyes. "Do you really think I don't have any tricks up my sleeve? I've been living in vain in the end times?"
"But I was obviously so angry that I lost my mind. So when I took out the smoke bomb from the ring, I completely forgot that there was a shadow guard behind me."
"He was very close to me, and as soon as I threw the smoke bomb, he grabbed my hand."
"I originally wanted to bite him, but I ended up biting that spot."
"You know what I mean." Qiao Wan coughed lightly, "He said he would be responsible for me, so I took advantage of the situation and asked him to bring me to Yuzhou."
"Who would have known that this idiot was so conscientious... Damn it, why would such a feudal society produce such a fool?"
