~7 min read 1,216 words

This young man, after seeing Er Zhuzi's performance, immediately felt a bit puzzled.

However, he didn't want to agree just like that.

"That guy ordered this pack of medicinal powder to be thrown into this well."

"But if Er Zhuzi is beside me, I really can't operate."

"If I leak a flaw and get discovered, then wouldn't my mother and I not be able to stay here anymore."

Thinking of this, he immediately shook his head, turned to look at Er Zhuzi with worry, and spoke.

"You go ahead, my family doesn't need much water right now, you are not feeling well, so fetch the water back early."

"Otherwise, it will delay your recovery."

As he spoke, he looked at Er Zhuzi in front of him with a smile.

And at this moment, just when Er Zhuzi wanted to say something, suddenly, he found that other people had gathered here again.

They also brought quite a few water buckets, looking like they were coming to fetch water.

And there were quite a few of them.

Finally, he gritted his teeth, swallowed the words he still intended to continue to decline, and spoke reluctantly.

"Alright, since that is the case, then I will go first."

Er Zhuzi, while speaking, picked up the water bucket beside him and walked forward steadily.

At the same time, he tied the top of his water bucket to the rope on the well and slowly lowered the water bucket.

"Hoo~"

"Fortunately, Er Zhuzi didn't continue to argue with me about this."

"Otherwise, there would definitely be no chance today."

This young man, after seeing Er Zhuzi's actions, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But soon he noticed the people around him, and at the same time, he thought secretly in his heart.

"But I still have to hurry; otherwise, if I wait for those people to come over, there definitely won't be an opportunity today."

When he thought of this, the psychological pressure on this young man increased quite a bit again.

But just as he was distracted, he suddenly heard Er Zhuzi beside him let out a loud cry.

"Ah!"

Then the wooden bucket dropped rapidly and fell back into the well.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?"

After hearing Er Zhuzi's cry, the young man reacted immediately.

He turned around and took a look at Er Zhuzi.

At the same time, those ordinary commoners who were originally approaching slowly also noticed the scene here.

They also accelerated their speed, wanting to come over and see the specific situation.

At this moment, the young man was surprised to find that the other party's arm was trembling slightly.

It seemed as if he was enduring some kind of pain.

"Hiss~"

After Er Zhuzi took a cold breath, he endured the pain, frowned, and explained.

"It should be that the previous injury hurt my hand, and as a result, when I was fetching water, this problem occurred."

When he said this, Er Zhuzi couldn't help but stare, then spoke again.

"But it shouldn't be a big problem; it will be fine after resting for a while."

While speaking, he looked at the young man before him with a bitter smile.

It was just that the hand that was trembling was slowly putting away a small piece of oil paper.

For a moment, even the young man beside him didn't notice this detailed action.

Instead, he said with some worry.

"How about this, I'll help you deliver this bucket of water."

"You should find an opportunity to go back and rest for a while, or find a physician to take a look."

"Otherwise, if a truly significant injury occurs,"

"it might not be so easy to cure later."

After Er Zhuzi heard the young man say this, he nodded immediately and didn't continue to decline.

Instead, he looked at the young man before him with a face full of gratitude.

"Fine, Ergouzi, then I'll trouble you to make this trip; when I have a chance later, I'll treat you to a drink."

After finishing, he nodded at him and turned to retreat very decisively.

498. Long Nights Bring Many Dreams, Suddenly Collapsed! (Please subscribe!)

After seeing Er Zhuzi's performance, the young man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

"He finally left; now I must seize the opportunity well, otherwise, long nights bring many dreams."

The young man thought while raising one of his hands, in which was exactly that oil-paper packet.

"But then again,"

"Er Zhuzi's injury seems to be somewhat serious; I must help him find a better physician later."

"I can't let him ruin himself just because of some small matters."

Seeing this oil-paper packet at the same time reminded him of that other piece of gold, and he thought secretly.

But soon he collected his thoughts and hurriedly started to fetch water.

Because he discovered that the people nearby were approaching this side and were about to reach his vicinity.

If he didn't act now, there would be no opportunity.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly opened the oil-paper packet in his hand.

Then he prepared to take advantage of the action of fetching water to pour the powder inside the oil-paper packet into it.

But just as he was preparing to act, suddenly, the hand holding the oil-paper packet was pinched by someone.

In an instant, a feeling of extreme fear surged from the bottom of his heart.

"Caught... caught?"

His body trembled somewhat.

But in the end, he still widened his eyes and looked toward the owner of the hand beside him.

"What are you preparing to do?"

Wumian, while grabbing one of the hands of the person before him, revealed a faint smile and asked.

After he received Ying Mo's instructions, he was responsible for dealing with the places where the unrest was more serious, and this small town was one of them.

Very coincidentally, just as he was observing the crowd in this small town, preparing to search for some clues in the dark,

he discovered that the young man at the well was acting with extreme unnaturalness, as if he were moving stiffly.

Was he preparing to do something?

Subconsciously, Wumian felt that this might be a relatively important matter.

This also aroused curiosity in his heart, so he directly seized the other party at the very moment they were preparing to act.

And after he controlled the other party,

seeing the terrified expression of the person before him, he became even more certain of his guess.

Then, he took the initiative to ask.

And at this very moment, after noticing the appearance of Wumian, the young man's originally tense and fragile heart collapsed instantly.

Because he discovered with great fear that the feeling Wumian brought him was even stronger than that of the strangely dressed guy from before.

Instantly, he felt that he was dead for sure this time.

In an instant, his heart collapsed.

"My lord, spare my life."

The next moment, he cried out.

Looking at the strangely behaving young man before him,

Wumian couldn't help but furrow his brows.

Seeing the strange gazes cast by the ordinary commoners around, he quickly re-wrapped the oil-paper packet in the young man's hand.

And, taking him, he left the area of the well.
