The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

The next day, the rain stopped, the sky was clear and blue, and the sun shone softly on the earth. Xiyu and others packed up their luggage and continued on their journey.

Wenxuan stayed in the wild all night, lying on the ground, and no one noticed him at all.

The horse stood guard loyally by the side, occasionally lowering its head to sniff Wenxuan, as if trying to wake up its master.

Xiyu and others rode their horses slowly forward and passed by the place where Wenxuan fell.

Xiyu glanced inadvertently and saw Wenxuan lying there motionless.

He was shocked and his face changed suddenly. He quickly pulled the reins, dismounted quickly, and ran to Wenxuan in two steps.

Ouyang Linlin was also startled, her brows furrowed, and she quickly dismounted.

Xi Yu came to Wenxuan anxiously, hugged her and shook her hard, calling out anxiously: "Wenxuan, Wenxuan, wake up!"

As he shouted, he gently touched her forehead, only to find it was burning hot. This touch made his heart ache even more. "Oh no, she has a fever!"

Song Shuwen looked calm and said with a firm gaze: "Don't panic, Prime Minister. With me, Song Shuwen, here, you don't have to be afraid! Prime Minister, please quickly prepare a proper place to accommodate the injured."

Xiyu put Wenxuan down anxiously. At this moment, the anger in his heart was like a raging flame.

He suddenly turned around and kicked Wenxuan's horse hard. His eyes widened, his face flushed, and he shouted at the top of his lungs, "You damned beast! Why didn't you come back to report? Your master is in this state now, you are to blame!"

The horse seemed to realize that it had failed in its duty. It lowered its head, its eyes full of guilt, neighed softly, and pawed the ground anxiously with its hooves.
Ouyang Linlin frowned slightly and asked Xi Yu in confusion, "Husband, why do you blame Ma? Ma is not sensible."

Xi Yu frowned and shook his head with a worried look on his face, but said no more. He knew very well that this was not the time to talk nonsense.

Afterwards, Xi Yu gritted his teeth and used all his strength to carry the unconscious Wenxuan onto the horse.

He looked around anxiously and called on everyone to quickly find a place to accommodate Wenxuan.

No one dared to delay and quickened their pace. The sound of horse hooves and footsteps seemed particularly hurried in the open wilderness.

Finally we arrived at a village. At the entrance of the village, a few old willow trees were swaying gently in the breeze.

Xiyu walked hurriedly holding Wenxuan, his forehead covered with sweat, his eyes anxiously searching for somewhere to seek help.

At this time, they came across a family with a small courtyard surrounded by adobe walls and smoke coming out of the chimney. Xi Yu took two steps at a time and walked forward and knocked on the slightly shabby wooden door.

The door opened, and a kind-looking old man appeared in front of him. Xi Yu hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, and explained the situation to the host in an earnest tone: "Old man, my companion was injured in the wild and had a high fever. I beg you to be kind and let us find a place to put her and find some way to save her."

The old man looked at Xiyu's anxious expression, then looked at Wenxuan who was unconscious in his arms, and quickly moved aside to let them enter the house.

Just like that, Xiyu carefully carried Wenxuan to a relatively tidy room and gently placed her on the bed.

His eyes were full of concern and anxiety, and sweat on his forehead kept sliding down his cheeks.

Then, Xi Yu turned to look at Song Shuwen, and said in an anxious but hopeful tone: "Divine Doctor Song, please, you must heal her."

Song Shuwen nodded solemnly, walked quickly to the bedside, and began to treat Wenxuan.

Next, Song Shuwen frowned and said seriously, "Everyone, please go out first. Let me treat this."

Xi Yu walked out of the room and saw a cool breeze in the yard, which was quite refreshing, so he walked into the yard.

The old man had a kind face and quickly offered seats to the three people. Xi Yu smiled, thanked him, and sat down.

The old man's eyes were filled with concern, and he was the first to speak: "Young man, you look so tired, you must have been through a lot."

Xi Yu raised his head slightly, looking at the sky, thinking: This old man looks quite kind, maybe I can talk to him a little. With a wry smile on his face, he responded: "Old man, the difficulties in this world cannot be explained in a few words."

The old man patted Xi Yu's shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, don't worry, just talk slowly."

Xi Yu lowered his head, his eyes dimmed, and he said slowly: "I have been traveling all the way, and I have time to see the sufferings of the world, but I am powerless to change it, and I feel very depressed."

The old man looked deep in his eyes and said thoughtfully: "Life is full of suffering, but as long as you have hope, there will always be a turning point."

But the old man doubted Xi Yu's identity, and couldn't help wondering in his heart: "Who is this person? Why does he talk like this?" However, the old man just speculated secretly and did not express his doubts out loud.

At this moment, a neighbor came running over in a hurry, shouting, "Old man, something terrible has happened! Your son Jin Xi has been beaten up!"

When the old man heard this, it was as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue. The fan in his hand fell to the ground with a "snap". His face turned pale instantly, and he asked with trembling lips: "What on earth is going on?"

The neighbor was breathing heavily, beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead. He said anxiously, "Jin Xi went out to transport the goods and had agreed on the price. Who would have thought that when all the goods were loaded onto the truck, the other party would suddenly raise the price without any integrity. Jin Xi was an upright person and naturally did not want to suffer this loss, so he argued with them. Who knew that the other party was so arrogant and unreasonable that they started fighting without saying a word. Jin Xi was outnumbered and was beaten by them."

After hearing this, the old man was so angry that he trembled all over, his eyes were as big as copper bells, his chest was heaving violently, and he roared: "What a bunch of conscienceless people! They are simply lawless!"

Xi Yu stood aside, clenching his fists tightly, his brows twisted into a knot, his teeth chattering, and thinking indignantly: "How can such a wicked person be allowed to go unpunished? I must seek justice for him!"

The old man's face was filled with anxiety and worry. He turned around and said to Xi Yu in a stern voice: "Young man, this is our family business. Don't meddle in other people's business!"

Xi Yu's eyes were firm, and he did not back down. He said firmly: "Old man, I can't stand the inequality in this world. I will take care of this matter!"

At this time, the neighbor hurriedly told the old man: "Grandpa, Jin Xi is coming here."

Outside, Jin Xi appeared in a miserable state.

He was dressed in rags, his hair was messy, his face was covered in bruises, and his eyes were full of anger and grievance.

There were many villagers gathered around, all whispering to each other with angry looks on their faces.

As for Jin Xi's car, it had been smashed into pieces with all parts scattered around.

Many villagers were so angry that their faces turned red. Some waved their fists and shouted angrily: "This is too much bullying!"

Some frowned and shouted indignantly: "It's totally unfair!"

As soon as Jin Xi saw the old man, tears immediately welled up in her eyes, and she cried out in pain, "Dad, I didn't finish this task. I am so ashamed!"

He hung his head, his face full of guilt and self-blame. He felt extremely remorseful and felt that he had disappointed his father.

The old man hugged Jin Xi distressedly, patted his back gently and consoled him: "Son, I already know what happened. It's not your fault. It's because those people were too unreasonable!"

Jin Xi raised his head and looked at the old man with red and swollen eyes.

At this time, Jin Xi noticed that there were three strangers in the house. He frowned and asked in confusion, "Dad, who are these people?"

The old man sighed and said, "They are on their way, but their friend is in trouble and is here to get treatment."

Jin Xi thought to himself: These people don’t look like bad people.

The old man looked at the villagers with gratitude, clasped his hands together, and said with emotion: "Thank you all for accompanying my son back. I will remember this kindness."

Several villagers waved their hands and said cheerfully: "Old man, you are too polite. We are neighbors, and this is what we should do." After that, everyone gradually dispersed.

Xi Yu walked forward, looked at Jin Xi sincerely, and asked, "Brother Jin Xi, are you willing to let me handle this matter?"

Jin Xi looked puzzled, looking up and down at Xi Yu, wondering: Why does this man want to meddle in this business? He said, "My dear brother, I have never met you before, why do you want to meddle in this matter?" Xi Yu straightened his back, his expression firm, and said in a resolute voice, "I just see injustice and can't stand those villains who bully others by taking advantage of their power!"

Jin Xi's eyes flashed with hesitation, bit his lip, and said, "This matter is quite troublesome. I appreciate your kindness, but I don't want to implicate you."

Xi Yu smiled slightly, his eyes revealing determination and confidence, and said: "Brother Jin Xi, please don't be so polite. Since I have decided to help, I am not afraid of any trouble."

Jin Xi frowned and pondered for a moment, then he raised his head with a look of trust in his eyes and said, "Since you are so righteous, I, Jin Xi, will not refuse."

The old man watched from the side, his face full of worry, and said worriedly: "Child, this is not easy to handle, don't get yourself into big trouble."

Xi Yu comforted the old man and said, "Don't worry, old man. I know what to do and will give Brother Jin Xi justice."

Jin Xi was deeply moved, his eyes were red, and he choked up and said, "Thank you very much. If this matter can be resolved, Jin Xi will definitely repay you."

Xi Yu said, "Brother Jin Xi, don't be so polite. Tell me where the place that is raising the price is." Jin Xi quickly replied, "It's in the big stone shop in the east of the city. I'm in the stone business. I thought I could deliver the goods smoothly this time, but I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing."

Xi Yu nodded slightly and turned to look at Ouyang Linlin. Ouyang Linlin frowned and said with a worried look on her face: "Let the secret guards go, don't go there yourself."

Xi Yu looked determined, shook his head and said, "If I don't handle it myself, I won't be at peace."

Ouyang Linlin bit her lip, her eyes full of concern, and said, "Then you must be careful and never act rashly."

So, Xi Yu looked at Jin Xi firmly and said, "Brother Jin Xi, you come with me." After that, he jumped on the horse and pulled Jin Xi behind him. The horse neighed and galloped away, raising a cloud of dust.

After the two men left, the old man paced back and forth in the yard, his face full of worry, muttering: "What should I do? It's all my son's fault. He has caused trouble for others."

Ouyang Linlin stepped forward and said in a soothing voice, "Old man, you don't have to worry so much. He will be able to handle this matter."

The old man sighed and said worriedly, "I hope so. I hope nothing else will happen."

Xiyu and Jinxi rode at full speed and soon arrived at the Dashifang in the east of the city.

Before entering the door, I heard bursts of noisy noise coming from inside.

Xi Yu dismounted, handed the reins to Jin Xi, and took the lead to stride into the stone archway.

I saw a group of burly men sitting together drinking and playing finger-guessing games, it was quite lively.

Xi Yu glanced around and his eyes fixed on a man with a fat face and a burly figure. He thought that this man must be the one who took the lead in raising the price.

The man noticed someone was watching him, so he looked up, squinted at Xi Yu and Jin Xi, and said in a sarcastic tone, "Hey, this guy who got beaten up dares to come to our door?"

Xi Yu showed no fear, took a step forward, and said loudly: "In broad daylight, you are so dishonest and oppress the good, don't you fear the law?"

The man laughed loudly, slapped the table, stood up, and said viciously: "The law? In this world, I am the law!"

Xi Yu snorted coldly and said, "If you don't give me a reasonable explanation for what happened today, don't even think about letting it go!"

The man rolled up his sleeves, revealing his sturdy arms, and yelled, "Boy, you want to cause trouble, right?"

As he said that, he called a few thugs around him to come over.

Seeing this, Jin Xi couldn't help feeling a little timid and pulled at the corner of Xi Yu's clothes.

Xi Yu gave him a firm look, telling him not to be afraid.

At this tense moment, the secret guard suddenly flashed and attacked with lightning speed, instantly subduing the two thugs who were rushing in front.

When the others saw this, they were all shocked and did not dare to step forward rashly.

Xi Yu's eyes were sharp, and he said again: "I don't want to cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of it. Today, as long as you apologize to Brother Jin Xi and compensate for the losses, this matter can be dropped."

The leading man saw that the people around Xi Yu were very skilled, so he became a little timid and his attitude was no longer so tough. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Okay, I'm unlucky. I'll do as you say this time."

In the end, Jin Xi's problem was properly resolved and the two returned on horseback.

Before Xi Yu left, his eyes were as sharp as torches as he warned those people coldly: "Behave yourself in the future and don't do bad things again, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" After that, he turned around and left with Jin Xi.

On the way back, Jin Xi was still frightened and curious. He looked at Xi Yu in amazement and asked impatiently, "Brother, who were those ghost-like people who suddenly appeared beside you just now?"

Xi Yu tilted his head slightly, glanced at Jin Xi, and said calmly: "Brother Jin Xi, there are some things you don't need to know, and it's no good for you to ask."

Jin Xi nodded as if he understood, but although he was still full of doubts, he did not ask any more questions.

The two of them remained silent, the sound of horse hooves echoing on the empty road.

After a while, Jin Xi couldn't hold back his curiosity and said carefully, "Brother, I know you have your difficulties, but I'm really curious. Those people showed up too suddenly and were too powerful."

Xi Yu sighed softly, looked ahead, and slowly said: "Brother Jin Xi, I didn't let you ask because it's for your own good. There are some things in this world that knowing too much may not be a blessing."

Jin Xi bit her lip and said thoughtfully, "Brother, I understand what you mean, but I just think you must be a very capable person."

Xi Yu smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't matter if I have any great or small abilities. I just help others when I see injustice."

"Anyway, I'm grateful to you today, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

The two continued riding forward, the wind blowing on their faces, bringing a hint of coolness.

At the old man's house, Song Shuwen walked out with a solemn expression and sighed heavily. Seeing this, Ouyang Linlin's heart suddenly rose to her throat, her face turned pale in an instant, and she asked in panic: "Doctor Song, is Wenxuan in danger?"

Song Shuwen did not answer immediately, but frowned, looked around, and asked, "Where is the Prime Minister?"

Ouyang Linlin was extremely anxious, her voice trembling a little: "It's already this late, don't worry about the Prime Minister, just tell me what happened to Wenxuan!"

Song Shuwen looked at Ouyang Linlin, who was almost on the verge of collapse, lowered his head slightly, and said after a moment of silence: "The situation is not optimistic. I...I need the Prime Minister to make a decision."

Ouyang Linlin was even more frightened now. Her face turned pale as paper, her eyes were filled with fear, her body began to tremble uncontrollably, and she cried, "Divine Doctor Song, please don't scare me. What on earth is going on?"

Ouyang Linlin's hands were ice cold and her heart was in her throat. She stared at Song Shuwen nervously.

Song Shuwen continued, "Wenxuan is not in danger of death for the time being, but his condition is somewhat complicated and requires further treatment."

Hearing this, Ouyang Linlin felt like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw. Her tense nerves instantly relaxed, and she took a long breath and murmured to herself, "Thank God, as long as there is no danger to life, it's fine."

Song Shuwen looked at her and asked, "Where is the Prime Minister?"

Ouyang Linlin calmed herself down and said, "My husband has gone to fight for justice." She was still worried about Wenxuan's condition, and was also concerned about her husband who was away.

The old man looked guilty, bowed deeply, and said apologetically: "This is all my fault. I'm really sorry for making you worry about my family's affairs."

But the old man suddenly stiffened, as if he realized something, and turned around abruptly, his face full of astonishment, and said in a trembling voice: "Just now...just now you called me Prime Minister?"

His eyes were wide open, filled with disbelief and fear. (End of this chapter)
