The Nameless Girl (1)
Slowly opening her eyes, what came into view was a slightly dilapidated wooden house.
There was a strong medicinal smell in the air, and Xu Mingyu vaguely smelled that the medicinal smell contained various healing herbs. It’s just that these herbs are not expensive, and most of them belong to the kind that can be seen everywhere.
At this moment, Xu Mingyu felt a little doubt in her heart.
Did someone save her?
At this time, the sound of soft footsteps came from afar, slowly getting closer.
Xu Mingyu turned her gaze to the direction of the sound of footsteps and saw a girl in a coarse sackcloth walking slowly with a pottery bowl in her hand.
Seeing that Xu Mingyu was looking at her with open eyes, the girl said lightly, “Are you awake? Since you are awake, then drink this bowl of medicine!”
Xu Mingyu sat up with difficulty, but severe pain came from all over her body at the same time. She couldn’t help but gasp in pain, but she still gritted her teeth and resisted crying out loud.
She carefully took the pottery bowl from the girl’s hand and drank the soup in the bowl. The bitter brew went down her throat and entered her stomach, making her feel overwhelmed.She took a deep breath and took a breather, then pressed the soup in her stomach and did not spit it out. She let out a long sigh of relief, looked at the girl gratefully, and said, “Thank you very much.”
But at the next moment, she couldn’t help but scream.
The girl was not surprised by Xu Mingyu’s reaction, and said lightly, “Scared?”
Xu Mingyu looked at the girl’s hideous scars that almost covered her entire face, swallowed, and said in a tone as calm as possible, “Um… sorry, I’m just… just a little…”
Xu Mingyu hesitated, not knowing what to say. The girl waved her hand indifferently and said, “The first time most people see me like this, they will react like you. I’m used to it.”
Xu Mingyu suddenly felt guilty. After all, she was saved by this girl, but she was terrified by the girl’s appearance, which was a bit hurtful. But Xu Mingyu didn’t know how to comfort her, so she had to change the subject and said, “Did you save me?”
The girl gave a soft “hmm” and said, “Seven days ago, when I went up the mountain to collect herbs, I happened to encounter a riot of demonic beasts. I saw you being besieged by demonic beasts, and I saved your life.”
Xu Mingyu said gratefully, “Thank you very much! If you didn’t take action, I’m afraid I would have died under the riot of demonic beasts.”
The girl glanced at Xu Mingyu and suddenly sneered. This sneer made Xu Mingyu feel baffled, and she couldn’t help but ask, “What are you laughing at?”
The girl said sarcastically, “A beauty as beautiful as you are, I’m afraid there are many suitors? How can you be alone? Where are your suitors?”
When the word “suitor” was mentioned, Xu Mingyu’s expression suddenly became ugly.
But the girl looked at Xu Mingyu’s face, nodded in satisfaction, picked up the pottery bowl, and walked out.
After the girl left, Xu Mingyu couldn’t help but fall into her memories.
When they fought against the Tiangang Sword Sect that day, Miao Fengyan died tragically at the hands of Yu Binglan because of her running away.
Xu Mingyu is very aware of how important Miao Fengyan is to Chu Qing.
After the fall of Ziqing Sacred Land, Xu Mingyu, the candidate for Holy Maiden, has almost no use value.
She is no longer of great significance to Chu Qing.
The tragic death of Miao Fengyan will definitely arouse Chu Qing’s anger. Based on what Xu Mingyu knew about Chu Qing, he would definitely vent his anger on her. Ꞧ₳ℕỔВË𝙎
So after getting out of danger, Xu Mingyu took a chance and left in a hurry.
Afterward, Xu Mingyu would often think, with Chu Qing’s temperament, how he would avenge Miao Fengyan.
She remembered that Yu Binglan was also a stunning beauty, and at the same time, a well-known heavenly genius of the Tiangang Sword Sect. She was someone who was once hailed as the number one female cultivator of the younger generation.
For Chu Qing, Yu Binglan undoubtedly has a huge temptation, both in terms of beauty and background.
Based on Xu Mingyu’s understanding of Chu Qing, as long as he has the opportunity, he will definitely try to get close to Yu Binglan and take such a wonderful woman into his pocket.
At that time, Chu Qing would definitely find ways to excuse Yu Binglan’s act of killing Miao Fengyan, and Xu Mingyu, who no longer has any use value, is undoubtedly the best scapegoat.
Thinking of this, Xu Mingyu couldn’t help but feel a little sad. Since she was the first one to get to know him from when he was nothing more than a handyman disciple, she clearly knew what kind of person Chu Qing was, but she still chose to help this evildoer. Now that she has fallen into such a situation, she truly received what she rightfully deserves.
Just like what the girl said just now, she was once a proud daughter of heaven and had many suitors. But among so many suitors, she chose Chu Qing, a hypocrite who spoke and flaunted love but only wanted to vent his lust.
Not only that, she also betrayed her own master who raised her for this hypocrite, and she became a despicable person who was cast aside by the world.
Now, when she was thinking about her future, she found sadly that she had nowhere to go.
Although the world is big, where is her destination?
Her life is simply a complete joke!
Thinking of this, Xu Mingyu couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.
Smiling and laughing, the wry smile turned into a big laugh, and the big laugh turned into a wild laugh.
She laughed at herself for not being able to understand people, for being naive and ignorant, for being partial to listening and believing, and even more for not being able to see others or her own self clearly!
She smiled and laughed, and the laughter turned into crying. She wept softly, and even that gradually turned into howling.
After crying for an unknown amount of time, a faint voice was suddenly heard near her, “Have you cried enough? Hurry up and eat when you have cried enough.”
Xu Mingyu opened her eyes, and she found that at some point, the girl had come to her with a pottery bowl once again.
Rice and wild vegetables are contained in the pottery bowl, which is an extremely simple meal.
But to Xu Mingyu, who had fled for many days and hadn’t eaten a grain of rice, it looked like a feast that seemed to extraordinarily whet her appetite.
Xu Mingyu took the pottery bowl from the girl’s hand, and was about to thank her, but saw that the girl had already turned and left without a word.
For some reason, the girl was obviously cold-spoken and ugly, but she felt the long-lost tenderness from her.
It’s not Chu Qing’s kind of tenderness that flirts with each other in bed, but the tenderness that really cares about the other person.
Thinking of this, Xu Mingyu felt sour again. She picked up the pottery bowl and ate it in big mouthfuls, while big drops of tears dripped into the food, making the dry food a little more salty even with the lack of salt.
The pottery bowl was not big, and Xu Mingyu quickly ate up the whole bowl of rice.
