Chapter 1057: Chapter 1057: Dangerous Industry
Jiangli took Bai Changfeng’s dical kit and was about to treat Xia Xin’s wounds.
The wounds were all on his back, and to treat them, he had to take off his shirt.
Xia Xin was still a bit embarrassed and hesitantly said, “Old, old ancestor, let do it myself.”
“Let do it.”
Bai Changfeng saw that Xia Xin was feeling awkward, retrieved the dical kit again, and said, “Abbot, we’re all n, it’s more convenient for us to handle this, can you wait outside?”
How could Jiangli not know why Xia Xin was acting shy?
She gave Xia Xin a sidelong glance, “Such fuss.”
After speaking, she stepped outside.
Xia Xin looked at Bai Changfeng apologetically.
“Your Abbot ans well for you.” Bai Changfeng opened the dical kit and took out the dicine, “Take off your clothes.”
Xia Xin took off his clothes, inevitably pulling at the wound. He gritted his teeth and kept drawing sharp breaths.
“I know, but… it’s still sowhat inconvenient.”
Bai Changfeng said, “True…”
He took out the dicine and had Xia Xin lie down to treat his wounds.
Sumr Xin’s muscles tightened with pain, and he bit hard on his wrist, preventing himself from letting out a loud scream.
When Bai Changfeng finished applying the dicine, Xia Xin was trembling all over.
Trying to make light of the situation, he said, “I’ve, I’ve realized doing our job is full of dangers, always a threat to life.”
Bai Changfeng chuckled.
Xia Xin forced a smile, more ghastly than crying.
Previously, when the old Taoist led him, they mostly perford rituals, drew talismans, or told fortunes. Xia Xin had never encountered anything dangerous.
Now, following the ancestor, he’s seeing all sorts of eye-opening things.
It’s the first ti he’s realized how close their job is to danger.
Xia Xin smiled bitterly.

Qiu Tang woke up when the sky was just brightening.
She felt like she had slept a very exhausting sleep, still feeling soreness and fatigue upon waking.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at the room she was in, suddenly recalling what happened before she fell unconscious.
She rembered chasing the water footprints into the mountains, but soon after, was engulfed in darkness.
Before completely losing consciousness, she rembered sothing seed to press down on her, leaving her breathless, with only the earthy sll in each breath.
Right, the water footprints!
Qiu Tang made a move to get out of bed.
At this mont, Bai Changfeng happened to push the door open and co in.
Seeing this, Bai Changfeng said, “Oh, you’re awake. Perfect timing, we’re planning to return to the city.”
Qiu Tang was taken aback, “Return to the city?” She hurriedly said, “Mr. Bai, we can’t return to the city now, last night I…”
Bai Changfeng interrupted, “Are you trying to say that last night, you heard water, saw water footprints?”
Once again, Qiu Tang was stunned, “Mr. Bai, how do you know?”
Could it be she talked in her sleep, revealing it?
Bai Changfeng broke off her wild thoughts, “The Abbot and Xia Xin are waiting for us in the car. Let’s go over first, on the way back I’ll explain what’s really going on.”
Qiu Tang was a bit dazed and followed Bai Changfeng and the others to the car.
In the car, she rembered to ask how Third Granduncle and the others were doing.
Bai Changfeng switched to the driver’s seat, started the car, and said, “The local governnt has been notified to have Third Granduncle’s family co and pick them up. Starting today, everyone in the village will move away, so you don’t have to worry.”
Qiu Tang: “Why?”
“This is related to the curse.” Bai Changfeng drove onto the main road, explaining what happened last night, and the incidents with Qiu Guan and Chunyu to Qiu Tang.
