Money sometimes ended up undoing heroes. She had just arrived in ancient times and was unfamiliar with the place. Her pockets were empty. Without money on hand, she felt insecure.
Although these men in black did not have much silver on them and it was just roughly 30 taels, it was already very good for Lin Ran.
After stuffing the silver into her pocket, Lin Ran dragged the unlucky guy to a nearby cave. She placed him in the cave before she went to find some herbs to treat his wound.
While treating his wound, Sima Yunshen woke up. The moment he opened his eyes, he reached out to grab Lin Ran's neck and said, "You want to die!"
Fortunately, Lin Ran reacted quickly and dodged in time. Otherwise, she would have died thanks to Sima Yunshen.
Lin Ran was unhappy that she was almost strangled to death. She stood up and looked at Sima Yunshen coldly. "I saved you out of kindness, but you want to kill me. In that case, I won't care about you anymore. You can stay here and fend for yourself."
With that, Lin Ran left the cave angrily and prepared to go home.
Seeing that Lin Ran was about to leave, Sima Yunshen panicked and shouted, "Miss, please wait!"
"What is it?" Lin Ran stopped and looked at Sima Yunshen warily.
"Thank you for saving my life, Miss. I don't know how to repay you. In the future…"
Upon hearing this, Lin Ran immediately thought of the scenes she had seen on television dramas previously where people would repay debts by marrying female leads. She interrupted, "Stop. I don't need your repayment. I was just trying to do a good deed."
With that, Lin Ran left quickly, as if a wolf was chasing her.
When Sima Yunshen saw Lin Ran leave quickly, he was stunned for a long time. He thought to himself and wondered if he had said something wrong earlier.
Sima Yunshen could not wrap his mind around it, but he did not think too much about it. Since the girl did not want him to mention repayment for her kindness, then he would drop it. His body was not in good condition now, so he should rest here for a few days first.
Speaking of which, he was both unlucky and lucky. The unlucky thing was that he was targeted by his enemies the moment he entered the border and was chased all the way by assassins.
The guards around him were eventually either dead or injured and he was the only one left. In the end, he fell on a rock and almost died, but he was fortunately saved.
At the thought of the little girl who had saved him, Sima Yunshen's eyes softened up, making him feel warm.
After Lin Ran left the cave, she saw that it was getting late and quickly ran towards the village. However, as soon as she entered the village, she saw a group of people walking toward her. The leader was Lin Xue.
As soon as she saw Lin Xue, Lin Ran knew that something bad was going to happen. Sure enough, when Lin Xue saw her, she immediately said, "Quick. Apprehend Lin Ran."
Lin Ran frowned and looked at the people walking towards her. She asked coldly, "Lin Xue, what are you doing this time? Did you accuse me again?"
"Hmph. Everyone has seen what you've done. Do you still need any accusations from me? Let me tell you. The village chief knows about the shameless things you did. He thinks that you've ruined the culture and reputation of the village and wants to capture you and drown you."
"Since when did I ruin the village's reputation? Why didn't I know?" Lin Ran was a little angry. She glanced coldly at the clansmen who followed Lin Xue and asked, "Can anyone tell me how I ruined the village's reputation?"
