The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Chapter 426: Bringing the Bai Clan Back to the Camp

It's not that there are people in the clan who are interested in poison arts, but there are clan rules that restrict them. If anyone secretly learns poison arts, he or she will be expelled from the clan. So even if they are interested, no one dares to actually study poison arts.

"Then why don't you learn martial arts? There must be someone in a big family like yours who practices martial arts, right?"

Lin Xi had no idea why a big family like theirs had no ability to resist bandits.

"Ugh! The clan members usually spend their time studying medicine and have no interest in martial arts. When the family was at its peak, we would recruit guards with strong martial arts skills, but before we went into the mountains to hide from the world, the elders dismissed those guards!"

Baiji touched his nose a little embarrassedly and said.

"After following me, you will start to learn poison techniques and martial arts. You must be able to protect yourself. Otherwise, if you encounter any danger in the future, do you want me to protect you?"

Lin Xi raised his eyebrows and looked at Bai Ji, saying with a smile.

"Yes, since we are following you, we will obey your orders. We will study hard and will not hold you back!"

Bai Ji said to Lin Xi with a respectful look on his face and clasped his fists.

"Okay, when we get back to Linshan Village, I'll have someone teach you martial arts and poison techniques! By the way, how come there are only two children among your dozen families?"

Lin Xi looked at Datou and Ermao who were following behind them, and asked with some confusion.

As far as she knew, the bandits took away people as families, so the surviving families had no deceased relatives, so why were there only two children?

In this dynasty, a family having two children was already considered rare. It was really strange that there were only two children in their dozen families.

"After our Bai family retired from the world, the elders would go out to look for orphans every once in a while, and then bring them back to raise them. When they reached marriageable age, they would marry and have children with any young man in the family they liked. However, in recent years, the world outside has been too chaotic, and we have gone out less, so many young men have not married and had children after they have reached marriageable age! There are fewer and fewer children in the village!"

Bai Ji sighed and said while stroking his beard.

"I see. Don't worry. After you settle down in Linshan Village, I will ask the villagers to help find a partner for you young men!"

Lin Xi's eyes rolled, he patted Bai Ji's shoulder enthusiastically, and said with a smile.

It was really great. Her mother had something to do, so when she returned home, she would leave the lifelong affairs of these young men to her mother and those enthusiastic aunts. In this way, they would definitely not have the time to urge her to go on blind dates.

When Lin Xi thought of this, he felt very happy and couldn't help humming a song.

Seeing Lin Xi happy, the people of the Bai family also put smiles on their faces. The group kept moving through the mountains and forests and soon arrived near the camp.

"Someone is approaching! Be alert!"

Lin An, lying in the grass with his ear to the ground, heard the footsteps approaching. He gestured to his friends scattered around the camp and whispered.

The kids in charge of guarding the camp hid and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

"My sister is back! Hey, why are there so many people following her?"

When Lin An saw Lin Xi walking in the front, he shouted excitedly. Just as he was about to get up from the bushes, he saw the group of people following her and murmured in confusion.

Seeing that Lin An did not move, the other kids also returned to their hiding place and did not come out. They carefully observed the person behind Lin Xi.

Lin Xi had already heard the breathing of Lin An and the others. Seeing that these little guys were still holding their breath and hiding there motionless, she raised the corner of her mouth slightly and flashed past them!

"Ah! Boss, why did you hit me on the head?"

"Sister, you sneak attacked me!"

......

Wherever Lin Xi passed by, the little ones jumped out from their hiding places, shouting.

Bai Ji and the others saw Lin Xi suddenly disappear. They were stunned when they saw a group of people wearing dark green clothes, with their faces painted green and a bunch of grass stuck on their heads jumping out. Judging from their voices, they were obviously not very old.

"You've seen me coming back, why are you still hiding there? Don't you want me to test your disguise skills?"

Lin Xi looked at the little guys who were pouting and said in a good mood.

"Sister, you found us so easily. It seems that our disguise is not good enough?"

Lin An held Lin Xi's arm, his brows tightly furrowed.

"That's enough, your faces are wrinkled like buns. You've disguised yourself very well. If it weren't for my extraordinary hearing, I wouldn't have been able to detect you. Remember to restrain your breath next time!"

Lin Xi tapped Lin An's forehead with a smile, looked at the little green men in front of him, and said happily.

When the little guys heard Lin Xi praising them for their good disguise, they instantly became happy and surrounded Lin Xi, talking and laughing.

Goudan looked at Baiji and others standing not far away and looked over here, and asked Lin Xi curiously: "Boss, who are those people?"

"They are the teachers I found for you to teach you medical skills!"

Lin Xi touched Goudan’s little face and said with a smile.

After saying that, she waved to Bai Ji and the others.

"Grandpa Baiji, come over here, I'll introduce him to you!"

When Bai Ji and others heard Lin Xi's words, they hurried over to her.

"Grandpa Baiji, they are my friends from the same village. We will all live in the same village from now on. Let's get to know each other!"

Bai Ji pointed at Lin An and the other little kids, and introduced them to Bai Ji and others with a smile.

"Bai Ji and the Bai family greet all the young masters!"

Bai Ji and the tribesmen behind him respectfully bowed to Lin An and the other little kids.

"Grandpa Bai, my sister said that you will be our masters from now on, and will be responsible for teaching us medical skills. We should bow to you!"

Lin An personally helped up Bai Ji, who was bending over and standing at the front, and smiled at him politely.

After saying that, he led Goudan and the others to bow respectfully to the Bai clan members.

"Young Master, this is unacceptable. Get up quickly, get up quickly!"

When Bai Ji heard Lin An call Lin Xi "sister", he knew that he was the master's younger brother, so he quickly avoided his greeting and helped him up. Other members of the Bai clan also quickly helped Goudan and other kids up.

"You don't have to be so polite. Just treat each other as fellow villagers!"

Lin Xi looked at the people who were greeting each other politely and said with a smile.

"Yes, Master!"

"Yes, boss!"

After hearing Lin Xi's words, everyone answered at the same time.

After saying that, they looked at each other again and laughed.

"Okay, Xiao An'er, Goudan, have the team members bring Grandpa Baiji and the others in. Don't let them accidentally step on the trap!"

Lin Xi looked at Lin An and Goudan and gave instructions.

After saying that, she flew into the camp first with her bag on her back.

"Grandpa Bai, please follow our route and be careful!"

Lin An smiled and greeted Bai Ji and others, then waved to the team members. The kids ran to the Bai clan members, took their bags, and then enthusiastically led them around the camp.

"careful!"

Goudan was in charge of taking care of Datou and Ermao. Datou's body suddenly tilted and fell to one side, perhaps because he had walked for too long, was too tired or accidentally twisted his foot. The little guy reacted quickly and hurriedly reached out to hold onto a big tree nearby to steady his body.

When Goudan saw this, his pupils shrank and he loudly reminded him to be careful. At the same time, he scooped up Datou with his right hand, tucked Ermao under his armpit with his left hand, and flew to a big tree.

As soon as they left the ground, a row of arrows shot towards the place where they had just stood. At the same time, two bamboo rafts with spikes were thrown towards there at the same time. If they had not left in time, they would have been shot and pierced with holes all over their bodies!

Datou and Ermao stared blankly at the arrows and bamboo rafts, a layer of cold sweat breaking out on their backs.

How dangerous!

But this little guy is so skilled and strong, he can even lift a person with one hand, and he can fly. He can move so quickly with two of them!

After the two little guys calmed down for a while, one of them hugged one of Goudan's arms and looked at him with sparkling eyes full of admiration.

"What's your name? You're really good at martial arts! Can you teach us?"

"Yes, you are so awesome, I want to take you as my master!"

After Datou and Ermao finished speaking, they looked at Goudan expectantly, fearing that he would refuse.

Goudan touched the back of his head embarrassedly and said with a smile: "My name is Goudan. The boss said that you are our medical masters. How can I be your master?"

"Then why don't we just become friends as equals? We'll teach you medicine and you'll teach us martial arts, okay?"

Datou's eyes rolled around a few times, he exchanged glances with Ermao, and said to Goudan.

On the way here, the master had already said that all their previous clan rules were invalid, and they could learn poison techniques from today. In the past, they had no interest in anything other than medical skills. After experiencing the bandits entering the village and killing the bandits, and after seeing Goudan's extraordinary skills just now, they suddenly developed a great interest in martial arts.

They must also learn martial arts well to protect themselves and their tribesmen!

When Bai Ji and others heard Goudan's shout and looked over here, they happened to see the thrilling scene just now. They were so scared that their hearts almost stopped beating, thinking that the two children were going to die. Then they saw Goudan taking Datou and Ermao quickly away. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and broke out in cold sweats.

Lin An and the other kids were not worried. They knew Goudan's skills, and even if any one of them were in their place, it would be impossible for Datou and Ermao to get into trouble.

"Grandpa Bai, don't worry. We'll take care of you. Nothing will happen. Everyone, be careful and watch your step. Don't trip over the grass!"

Lin An was in charge of taking care of Bai Ji and his son Bai Zhi. Seeing them looking at Goudan and the other two with pale faces, he smiled and comforted them.

"Thank you, young master!"

Bai Ji bowed towards Lin An and said with gratitude.

After seeing Goudan's abilities, and looking at the calm faces of the other kids like Lin An, Bai Ji guessed that their abilities must be no less than that of the kid named Goudan, and he respected them even more.

"Grandpa Bai, didn't my sister tell us that we don't need to be so formal? You can just call me Lin An or Xiao An'er, and we will call you Grandpa Bai!"

Hearing Bai Ji still calling him "Young Master", Lin An said with an awkward look on his face.

Hearing this, Bai Ji smiled and nodded at him, calling him "Xiao An'er".

Lin An smiled again and said, "Grandpa Bai, let's go to the camp!"

"Everyone, watch your step, walk more steadily, and don't cause trouble for these children!"

Bai Ji shouted loudly to the tribesmen who followed the kids into the camp, then he carefully followed Lin An.

The Bai family members agreed and walked more carefully.

Datou and Ermao stuck out their tongues in embarrassment, looked at Goudan and said in unison: "Goudan, I'm sorry to trouble you!"

"Oh! Why are you being so polite? Let's go into the camp. There are many brothers and sisters in the camp. I'll introduce them to you later! They are all very nice!"

Goudan patted Datou and Ermao on the shoulders and said with a smile.

After saying that, he led the two of them down the tree quickly and walked towards the camp.

"Boss, you're back!"

When everyone in the camp saw Lin Xi falling from the sky in front of Ermazi's tent, they all gathered around and greeted her.

"I'll go check on Ermazi's injuries first, and then come out to talk to everyone. I've brought some people back, and Xiao An'er and the others will bring them in soon. These people will live with us in Linshan Village, so you guys should receive them first!"

Seeing that Bai Ji and the others had not entered the camp yet, Lin Xi had an idea and put the bag behind him into the boundary bead. He then used his spiritual power to clean off the dust on his body and smiled at his friends.

After hearing Lin Xi's words, the kids nodded and turned their eyes towards the direction of the camp.

"Boss!"

Chen Yan had just heard voices outside the tent. When he saw Lin Xi opening the curtain and walking in, he hurried over to greet her.

While Lin Xi was disinfecting his hands with alcohol taken from the boundary bead, he looked at Er Mazi on the bed and asked Chen Yan, "How is Er Mazi doing?"

"Today he had a high fever. I boiled some medicine according to the recipe the boss left behind and fed it to him. I also wiped his forehead, armpits, palms and soles with wine. Just a quarter of an hour ago, the high fever subsided!"

Chen Yan took Lin Xi to Er Mazi and whispered to her about Er Mazi's physical condition.

After listening to him, Lin Xi nodded without saying anything. He untied the wound that was bandaged with white cloth on Ermazi and took a look at it.

"Prepare things and change the medicine!"

As Lin Xi spoke, he took out external medicines and other items from the boundary bead, put them on a tray, and motioned to Chen Yan to change the medicine for Er Mazi.

"Yes, boss!"

Chen Yan did not refuse. He took the tweezers and alcohol cotton balls from the tray and carefully wiped Er Mazi's wound and changed the dressing.

Lin Xi looked at Chen Yan's quick and steady movements and nodded secretly. This kid does have a talent for medicine.

"Chen Yan, lie down next to Er Mazi for a while and take a rest. I'll call Xiao An'er in later!"

Lin Xi patted Chen Yan on the shoulder, looked at his somewhat tired face, and spoke in a gentle voice.

Caring for patients is hard work.
