Female lead: No, it's me again??

Chapter 277 Pilgrimage Sect

Chen Chi was finally satisfied. "That's more like it."

"Grandmaster! Come quick! Someone has collapsed here!"

Not far away, Xiaohua waved to them.

Beside the path overgrown with aquatic plants, a thin figure lay there.

When Chen Chi and his group rushed over, Xiao Hua gently helped the person up, looked at them, and her eyes immediately showed heartache.

"How painful must that be?"

Were you burned in a fire before?

So many scars.

Chen Chi squatted down to take her pulse, and after a few breaths, he said, "It's nothing serious, she just fainted from hunger."

Ugh.

Poor child.

I don't know who they offended, but their spiritual veins have been destroyed.

He took off his own raincoat and gave it to Xiaohua, saying, "Put this on her; an ordinary person would die in this weather."

"Oh, okay."

Ge De wanted to take off his raincoat.

"Sect Master, please wear mine!"

Chen Chi glanced at him and said irritably, "Would I, the sect master of the dignified Spirit Sect, fall ill because of a little rain?"

"Forehead...."

After thinking for a moment, Ge De said awkwardly, "Yes."

"Then I'll carry her on my back, I'm strong!"

Xiao Hua, however, kept him at bay, saying seriously, "Men and women shouldn't touch each other! If you carry her on your back and outsiders see it in Qianshui City, her reputation will suffer!"

"understand?"

As she spoke, Xiaohua picked the person up on her back.

Once she was on his back, she felt that this older sister was so light!

Goethe feigned surprise.

"Little Flower, you're so strong!"

The girl glared at him, then turned to Chen Chi and said, "Grandpa Sect Master, let's hurry into the city!"

"Ah."

Chen Chi then said, "Ge De, you and your fellow disciples should go to the city and see which inn is cheap. If possible, stay there until the academy competition ends."

Ge Gen nodded, "Okay."

Two hours later, Xiaohua looked at the two-story building in front of her with a suspicious expression. "This is the luxury inn you were talking about?"

With a righteous expression, Ge De declared, "Why should cultivators be so particular? As long as they have a place to live, that's enough!"

In reality, they searched all over Qianshui City before finding a place where their wallets allowed them to go.

The inn was somewhat dilapidated, with the words "Good Fortune" hanging at the entrance.

The innkeepers were an elderly couple who smiled kindly at them. "They're all children. They must have suffered on their way to Qianshui City."

"Come in quickly, I've boiled some hot water for you to warm you up!"

Xiao Hua was the first girl to go in. She smiled and said, "Grandma, I'm sorry to have bothered you all these days."

"No trouble at all, old man. Go check if the food is ready in the kitchen. Bring it up when it's done!"

"Row."

The old man, leaning on his cane, swayed as he left.

The old woman said, "We have rooms on both the first and second floors. You can choose whichever you like."

"Qianshui City is rainy, so you should dress warmly."

Little Flower: "Okay, Grandma."

She carried the person up to the second floor.

The group climbed the creaking stairs, which looked as if they might break at any moment, to the second floor.

Xiao Hua randomly found a room, went in, and put the person on the bed.

Wipe and change clothes.

When they saw that almost no part of her skin was intact, their eyes filled with even more pity.

"Suffering."

Xiao Hua took out some homemade pills from her purse and fed them to her before she had time to look around the room.

The room was small; besides the bed, there was only a set of chairs and benches, barely enough space for washing up and walking around.

Although simple, it suits them best.

Xiaohua laughed, "Ge De, that guy, he's got a good eye for picks!"

"Not bad!"

"It provides shelter from the wind and rain, and it's not expensive."

When the wild geese flew south and awoke, it was already evening.

Her gaze was blank.

where is this?

She got up, startling the little flower guarding her beside her.

Xiao Hua instinctively tilted her head back, opening her eyes from her drowsiness. Seeing that she was awake, she rubbed her eyes and said happily, "You're awake! Are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat."

"You are......"

Yan Nanfei did not know her.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Xiaohua. My senior sisters and I rescued you by the roadside."

"With such heavy rain and your frail health, how could you have fainted there?"

Yan Nanfei did not answer.

Xiao Hua didn't mind, and chattered as she turned around to take the food out of the food box on the table. "Grandpa Sect Master said you'll wake up soon, so this food has been kept warm. Eat it while it's hot!"

The girl's gaze was sincere, and her concern seemed genuine.

Yan Nanfei couldn't explain why, perhaps he was no longer afraid of death, or perhaps he didn't care about anything, but he drank the porridge in Xiao Hua's hand.

Outside, the sounds of many teenagers complaining could be heard.

"Oh dear, Sect Master, is it really necessary to work this hard on the first day?"

"Exactly, after traveling all day, aren't we allowed to rest?"

The old man's voice was irritable: "Rest, rest, all you ever think about is resting! You know, diligence can make up for lack of talent, right?"

"The reputation of the Pilgrimage Sect cannot be compromised!"

Yan Nanfei looked in the direction of the sound, "This is..."

Xiao Hua explained, "Oh, it's nothing, it's just that Grandpa Sect Master is urging them to cultivate."

"Are you disciples of a sect?"

"Yeah, yeah~"

"We're here to participate in the college competition, and we haven't asked your name yet."

Yan Nanfei paused, then said, "Yan Nanfei."
