Chapter 127: Fairy-like? Dream-like? Tender feet like snow
"stop!"
"Catch her! She is Ding Li's fiancée! We will be rich if we catch her!"
"Bitch, I told you to stop."
"Damn it, you're running so fast. I'll beat you to death if I catch you."
Following closely behind the girl in white were a dozen gang members wearing grey cloth robes and also riding horses. They had revolvers in their hands and fired into the air from time to time to intimidate the fleeing girl in front.
The girl became more and more panicked when she heard the gunshots, looking back from time to time, which resulted in her not noticing Song Tianen in front of her as she rode her horse along the lakeshore.
When she found a man in strange clothes standing in front of her.
It was obviously too late to turn the horse around, and she could only shout wildly, "Get out of the way!"
At the same time, he held the reins tightly in his hands.
The frightened horse suddenly stood up with its front hooves raised. The girl in white was caught off guard and screamed, falling off the horse.
Although there are wetlands all around, the inertia of the horse's speed still exists. If he falls down like this, broken tendons and bones would be the least that could happen.
At this extremely urgent moment.
Song Tianen, who was standing in front of the horse, moved. He stretched out his left hand and seemingly gently pressed down the horse's body, which actually made the frightened horse fall to the ground with all four hooves unable to move.
Then he took a step forward and in the blink of an eye he was behind the girl in white. With a reach of his hands, he caught the girl who was about to fall steadily, then turned around and protected her behind him.
"Save me, these people are bandits!" The woman behind him shouted loudly as if she was grabbing a life-saving straw.
At this time, the gray-clad bandits behind him also caught up.
The leader of the group fired a shot at Song Tianen with his revolver.
"boom!"
With a gunshot, a bullet flew past Song Tianen's ear with a sharp sound of breaking through the air, blowing the hair beside Song Tianen's ear up.
"You bastard over there, hand over that girl in your arms!"
The gang members reined in their horses, then raised their pistols and pointed them at Song Tianen.
Song Tianen seemed not to see it. He lowered his head to look at the girl in white in his arms. He saw that the girl had an oval face and long eyebrows. Although her skin was pale, it could not hide her elegant and extraordinary temperament. Her pair of beautiful eyes were as clear as autumn water.
This woman is 80% similar to Gong Li, but she is less worldly and more fairy-like. She can be considered a rare beauty.
No wonder, the gambler Stephen Chow fell in love with this girl at first sight, but he didn't know whether she was like a fairy or a dream!
"Are you okay?" Song Tianen asked softly.
The girl in white came back to her senses after hearing this. She looked up at Song Tianen with a hint of gratitude in her eyes, "I... I'm fine, thank you."
She had seen him subdue the aggressive horse in an instant just now. Now, the people chasing after her were the famous hemp-clad bandits from the nearby suburbs. These people were erratic and ruthless, and there would be no good outcome if she fell into their hands. The only one who could save her was the man who suddenly appeared on the river bank.
Regardless of her embarrassed appearance at the moment, the girl hugged Song Tianen's arms and begged.
"Sir, please don't hand me over! These people are kidnappers!"
(Beep: Found a high-level wish commission; Client: Ruxian; Commissioned task: Please save me!)
"Don't worry, I'm here." Song Tianen smiled slightly: "I won't watch you get kidnapped."
"You damn brat, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business and go find out who our Shanghai Red Gang is! I'll only give you three seconds. When the time is up, I can't guarantee that nothing will happen to you!"
Song Tianen raised his head and looked at the members of the Red Gang, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, "Until now, no one has dared to say that I will get into trouble, but you guys are in trouble."
"Boy, you're looking for death!" Seeing Song Tianen being so arrogant, the members of the Red Gang became furious and started shooting with their guns.
However, they were not ready to shoot.
"Hmph, a bunch of rabble." Song Tianen sneered, and the next moment, he appeared beside these people.
Both claws become tiger claws!
He moved as fast as the wind, and was extremely swift. He was close to the side of the gangsters in an instant. His claws were as fierce as a tiger descending from the mountain. He broke through the defense of one of them in an instant, snatched his revolver directly, and broke his arm with a twist of his backhand.
"Ah——" A man screamed and rolled on the ground, covering his broken arm.
"Bang bang bang!"
With a series of punches and kicks, Song Tianen shuttled between the bandits like a ghost. With every punch, one bandit would fly backwards. Those who fell to the ground all had collapsed chests and died on the spot!
In just a few breaths, most of the red gang members had fallen.
The remaining bandits were so frightened upon seeing this that they turned their horses around and tried to escape.
However, how could Song Tianen let them go?
He just pointed his toes and picked up a pistol.
Looking closely, isn't this the box gun that is an indispensable protagonist in the anti-Japanese dramas of later generations?
It has a short range and strong recoil, but it is powerful enough.
However, this recoil is like a piece of cake for Song Tianen.
Without even a ripple in his palm, he raised his hand and started to hit! "Bang, bang, bang!"
The box gun fired all the bullets in just a few seconds.
The bullets seemed to have eyes and penetrated deeply into the backs of the remaining bandits, causing them to fall off their horses one by one.
Only the frightened horse was left, abandoning its owner and running away.
Song Tianen's agile skills and ruthless methods did not scare Ruxian behind him. Instead, they made her eyes sparkle. After all, in this chaotic world, only such strong men can survive, especially in Shanghai, a place where all kinds of people mix.
At this moment, Ruxian's mind was racing: "Big Brother Xu Wenqiang just died not long ago, and Ali just took over and has no one else around him. If we can win him over."
(Beep: Congratulations to the host for completing the advanced wish commission: Help me escape from danger; reward fusion value of 1,000 points.)
Song Tianen didn't know that after seeing his skills, this fairy-like girl had countless thoughts flashing through her mind in just a few seconds.
Turning around, he thought the other person was frightened, so he gently comforted her, "The girl is safe now!" He even took two steps forward and helped Ruxian up who had fallen.
"My name is Ruxian, thank you for saving my life, sir."
Ruxian was just about to bow and thank Song Tianen.
Maybe it was because I sprained my ankle before, and now that I was safe, I suddenly felt a pain in my left foot!
Her body suddenly went limp and she lost her balance. She screamed and fell into Song Tianen's arms.
"Girl, be careful!" Song Tianen took the opportunity to hug the other person, but one of his hands happened to be placed on the huge snow ball.
Even through a layer of gauze, Song Tianen could still feel the amazing elasticity.
"so big!"
Song Tianen was secretly shocked. This was at least the size of a European or American. "Ah!" Ruxian on the other side also obviously noticed something strange and cried out in embarrassment.
-
After Song Tianen straightened Ruxian, he quickly withdrew his hand.
"I'm sorry, Miss Ruxian, I didn't mean it."
At this moment, Ruxian's face was flushed with shame. You know, the pig she had raised for seventeen years was never touched by her fiancé Ding Li, and was then taken away by another man she met by chance.
But she also knew that the other party did not do it on purpose, and she was the one who bumped into him, so she really couldn't blame anyone else.
"Mr. Song, this is not your fault. Ah, it hurts!"
The sudden piercing pain in her left foot made Ruxian's forehead immediately covered with sweat. She bit her lower lip tightly with her upper lip and her whole body was shaking with pain.
"Miss Ruxian, don't move. I'll help you take a look!"
Ruxian hesitated for a moment. After all, this era was still relatively conservative, and a girl's feet should not be easily seen by other men.
But the pain in his ankle was indeed unbearable at this moment, and the other person's eyes were clear and he didn't seem to have any other thoughts.
Ruxian bit her teeth lightly and nodded shyly.
With instructions, Song Tianen very gently lifted the other person's willow-like calf and took off his deerskin boots.
Ruxian's brows were furrowed, and even the slightest touch was very painful.
"Mr. Song, my leg is not broken!"
Song Tianen comforted him: "It's a good thing that you can feel the pain. If you are numb and have no sense of touch, things will be worse."
Ruxian heaved a sigh of relief after hearing what Song Tianen said. If she was going to be lame for the rest of her life, she might as well just die.
Gently take off the white gauze socks.
This is a jade foot as white and tender as a lotus root. If the sole of the foot is one inch thicker, it will appear fatter, and if it is one inch thinner, it will appear thinner. It is a natural beauty.
Moreover, even though he rides horses frequently, there is not a trace of dead skin or sour smell on the soles of his feet. Instead, there is a faint fragrance of osmanthus. If nothing unexpected happens, this person should be soaking his feet in various fragrant flowers and grass for a long time.
However, Song Tianen was knowledgeable and after a moment of hesitation, he shifted his attention to the other person's ankle wound.
The ankle was red and swollen like a small steamed bun, obviously sprained! And the situation was more serious than expected, with obvious accumulation of fluid and blood.
-
With a crackling sound, Song Tianen used the gunpowder in the bullets to light a bonfire by the river.
Then he picked up some foxtail grass, which had mild anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, from the riverside. He crushed the herbs piece by piece with the handle of the box gun seized from the Red Gang, and then heated and disinfected them with a dagger.
"Miss Ruxian, please hold back!"
Song Tianen waited for the dagger to cool down naturally, then gently lifted the girl's ankle and prepared to pierce her ankle a little to drain the blood as much as possible.
"Wait!" At this moment Ruxian suddenly called a halt.
"What's wrong? Are you afraid of pain, Miss Ruxian? Don't worry, I will be gentle."
"No, I'm afraid of leaving scars." Ruxian, who loves beauty so much, doesn't want to leave scars even on her ankles.
Song Tianen smiled. It seemed that loving beauty was every girl's nature, whether in the Republic of China or in modern society.
"I'm not sure if you will be left with scars, but one thing I know for sure is that if you leave the bruises alone, there is a high chance that you will have a broken leg in the future!"
"Ah!! Then Mr. Song, please help me clear the blood clot as soon as possible." Ruxian's delicate face turned pale with fright.
"Well, then you bear the pain."
Song Tianen gently cut a little skin at her ankle.
Blood flowed out, but the speed was too slow, so Song Tianen squeezed it slowly with both arms.
"Ugh, Mr. Song, stop it, it hurts!" Then Ruxian groaned, and her hands involuntarily grabbed the arm of the man in front of her. Song Tianen raised his head and saw that she was covered in cold sweat and her whole face was twisted.
"Miss Ruxian, the blood on your foot is less than one-third clear. Please bear with it."
"Wow, Mr. Song, I'm not being pretentious, it really hurts to push with your hands!"
Song Tianen shook his head. Saving lives is like putting out a fire. It seems that this is the only method that can be used.
"Miss Ruxian is offended!"
Ruxian looked at Song Tianen in disbelief as he lowered his head and slowly sucked on the cut on her jade foot.
Although Ruxian felt very ashamed at the moment, it was indeed not as painful as when she pushed it with her hands just now. She even felt a little sore and itchy. The strong contrast between the before and after made Ruxian almost moan.
"Puff!" Song Tianen spat out a mouthful of dirty blood; when he touched the jade feet from a distance, they were icy cold and extremely smooth; but he did not have too many other dirty thoughts at the moment, he just wanted to heal and save people.
Inhale~exhale~inhale~exhale after a few cycles, and the purple-black blood turned into bright red, which proved that all the dead blood had been eliminated.
The redness and swelling on the soles of my feet also subsided visibly.
Only then did Song Tianen press the herbal handkerchief on her feet!
"Hiss~" The cool feeling almost made Ruxian scream out, and of course it also made her feel much more refreshed. At this moment, she realized that almost half of her body was leaning on Mr. Song. She looked at her collar, and because of her awkward posture, almost half of the snow was squeezed out.
In fact, Ruxian has always felt inferior because of her body which is different from other women.
Normally, I am wrapped tightly, but now my clothes are loose because I have been running on horseback for too long. I am afraid that I have been seen by the other party!
A strong sense of shame came over me.
"Ah!" Ruxian hurriedly distanced herself from him, and then pulled up her collar with both hands, feeling even more embarrassed. "What should I do? Ali and I were engaged, but today I was so close to another man. It's so embarrassing."
But the movement was too big, causing her injured foot to move involuntarily, and she couldn't help but cry out in pain.
Song Tianen used the clean water in the kettle to clean the blood in his mouth.
Then he handed the kettle to Ruxian. After she took a big sip and calmed down, Ruxian finally calmed down and said, "Mr. Song, my foot injury should be fine now. I got separated from Sister Chuntian during the spring outing. I'm afraid she and my family must be worried sick now."
Song Tianen shook his head: "Miss Ruxian, your ankle bruise is far more serious than you thought. The herbs just now can only temporarily relieve your inflammation. You can't ride a horse by yourself now, so you must change the anti-inflammatory medicine immediately. And I am too sure that you will not encounter Lei Lao Hu's Red Gang again."
Ruxian bit her lip. Song Tianen was right. Her foot was injured at the moment! Even if she rode a horse, she might not be able to escape if she met the Red Gang again.
I might have to trouble Mr. Song again!
Ruxian weighed the pros and cons and said, "There is a small town called Wuming Town nearby. The town government should have a telephone line. I can ask my father or Brother Ding Li to pick me up. But I still have to trouble you again, Mr. Song, on the way."
(Beep: Found an intermediate wish commission, client: Ruxian; commissioned task: please escort me!)
"Nameless Town? What a strange name!"
"Well, I heard it's an extremely closed town."
At this moment, the two of them didn’t know that Wuming Town was being brutally slaughtered by the Japanese beasts…
If we go there at this time, we will definitely run into the Japanese.
