Sun Chun shifted his body and sat back against the tree trunk, enduring the pain coming from his abdomen with great difficulty. He clenched his teeth, wanting to tie up the bandages again, but his hands kept on trembling.

Xia Li saw that Sun Chun was struggling strenuously but was not willing to help him, so when he was done struggling and leaning on the tree trunk to catch his breath, he immediately made his move. When Sun Chun tried to stop Xia Li, his weak hands were all mercilessly knocked off.

She skillfully helped to bind Sun Chun's bandages. Ignoring his cold face and his wariness, she went straight to the side of Lee's and Xia Qing.

"Mother, we are empty-handed and have nothing to offer. We might need to seek help from our relatives. We should find a place to stay for the time being so that we can temporarily settle down."

Xia Li held onto Lee's's hand and said.

"Let me think."

Hearing Xia Li's words, the Lee's fell into deep thought, and then, blankly shook his head.

"Your aunt's family has left. The villagers were extremely disgusted by us because of Father. Now that they think about it, the only one who can seek refuge is your maternal grandma."

"It's just that your disgraceful father went to your maternal grandma's house a few times, but was beaten back by your two uncles instead. I wonder if we'll be able to get you and your mother once we're here."

When Xia Li originally heard that there was a place she wanted to seek refuge, hope ignited in her eyes. However, after hearing the words that came after, her heart immediately lost all hope. She once again looked at the three people in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh.

Lee's's face was pale white, he was sick, he needed someone to help him walk, and Xia Qing was so hungry that he couldn't move, so beside him, Sun Chun's body was also injured, and he needed someone to take care of him.

She herself was hungry to the point of having her chest pressed against her back. At this time, it was obviously not a wise choice to travel, but when she thought about the worrisome scene of her being forced into debt, Xia Li's heart filled up. In a situation where she had no one to rely on, if she wanted to live, she could only rely on herself to sell the painkillers she had developed in her space.

But the original body did not have any medical skills, how could she say it so that the Lee's would believe her? Just as Xia Li was thinking about it, he suddenly remembered that there was a Water God temple standing not far from the shore.

At the time when the temple was built, it was also because of the many rivers surrounding the Tianshui Village and the fact that it was located in the lower reaches of the bottomless waterfall. The villagers had wanted to pray that the river would no longer cause water problems to appear, so they specially built the Water God Temple.

After the establishment of the temple, even though it was extremely dry year in and year out, the water had never stopped flowing, and there had never been any floods, which was why, in the eyes of the villagers, the position of the Water God temple was not that simple. Thinking about it like that, Xia Li immediately had an explanation in his heart.

Xia Li pulled Lee's's hand, stood far away from Sun Chun, and whispered into her ear.

"Mother, I have something to tell you. You must keep it a secret and not tell anyone else. To tell you the truth, before you and your brother were brought here by the Rich Man Yang, your daughter was already unsettled and jumped into this pool of water … "

"What!? You jumped into the pool? "

When Lee's heard that Xia Li had jumped into the water, he was so scared that his face turned pale and his body trembled.

Seeing that the Lee's was shocked, Xia Li immediately comforted her.

Mother, don't worry, don't you see that I'm just staying here? Listen to me, your daughter! Originally, your daughter had planned to finish everything once she jumped into the water, but just as she was about to die, the Water God Lord from the Water God Temple suddenly showed up. He repeated a mysterious medicinal formula beside your daughter's ears, informing her that it was enough to revive our family.

It was also by chance that I managed to save Sun Chun who had also fallen from the cliff. It was only then that I felt confident and tried to reason with the Rich Man Yang. "

"So it's Master Water God showing her presence! Thank you, Lord Water God for saving your daughter's life, and for giving us such a mysterious medicinal formula. "

The Lee's did not doubt him at all. As he spoke, he pulled Xia Li and Xia Qing along, and the three of them knelt down and kowtowed three times towards the direction of the Water God Temple.

Sun Chun leaned on the tree trunk, looking at the three of them kowtowing, a complicated look flashed past his eyes, he did not understand what the hell they were doing this time.

After the three of them had finished kowtowing, Xia Li pulled Lee's along and whispered.

"Mother, rest here with little brother for a while, I want to go to the town to verify the authenticity of the medicinal formula mentioned by Master Water God. If it's true, then maybe it can bring a glimmer of hope to our family and they will even have to pay this huge debt."

"Then be careful on your way."

When the Lee's heard that Xia Li wanted to go to town, he reminded her again.

"I will, mother, rest assured. However, you must keep the matter of the prescription a secret. Do not spread it, otherwise our family will have no way to survive."

Xia Li reminded the Lee's.

"Don't worry, mom will definitely not speak carelessly."

The Lee's said, then made a gesture to seal his mouth, and blocked Xia Qing's mouth.

Xia Li looked at Sun Chun who was leaning on the tree trunk, and still walked over and said this to him.

"Sun Chun, I'm going to the town for a trip. Since I saved you this time, I'll have to trouble you to take care of my mother and brother."

"Two hours. Once the time is up, it will no longer be my business."

After Sun Chun finished speaking, he closed his eyes.
