Chapter 674: Chapter 656: Wounded_1

"Quick! Hurry up and get out, this house is about to collapse!"

Someone suddenly shouted.

Uncle Xiao glanced at everyone and shook his head decisively: "If you want to escape, go ahead! But the lady is still inside the cave, no matter what, I must go down and find her!"

With that, he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to jump into the cave.

But the next moment, a figure appeared at the entrance of the cave.

"Quick, pull me out... cough, cough, cough..."

The figure suddenly spoke, extending a hand for everyone to pull him out.

A few people joined forces to forcefully drag him out of the cave. Uncle Xiao peered into the back for a long time, but he didn’t see Su Pan’er’s figure.

"Why are you here? Where is the lady, is she still inside?"

"The lady should still be inside."

The person who came out was one of the surviving soldiers. He was continuously coughing and shook his head, "Earlier, we split into two groups to explore the two branching paths inside the cave. So, I really don’t know where the lady has gone and where she is now."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Xiao quickly pushed him away.

"The lady must still be inside, I’m going in to check!"

As he spoke, he quickly flipped his clothing and was about to jump into the cave.

Unexpectedly, another bout of coughing echoed from the cave, followed by Su Pan’er shouting from inside, "Help me, pull me out!"

"My lady!"

With a cry of surprise and joy, Uncle Xiao quickly approached.

The two female guards were even quicker, one on each side of the cave entrance, stretching out their hands to pull Su Pan’er out.

Su Pan’er was covered in soil, in a very sorry state, and couldn’t stop coughing!

Notably, her back area had been scorched, and the two female guards standing next to her noticed that most of her backside clothing was burned, revealing a back covered in ash and soot. Her hair had also been licked by the fire, not only turning completely black but also emitting a burnt smell.

"My lady, are you... are you alright..."

Su Pan’er waved her hand.

"Cough, cough, cough... It’s not the time to talk about this now, let’s go! This place is shaking badly, I’m afraid it’s about to collapse. Let’s talk outside!"

The female guards dared not delay and hurriedly removed their outer coats to drape over Su Pan’er, protecting her as they rushed outside.

Outside of the mountain village, the remaining thieves who had managed to survive were all gathered in one place, watched over by a few soldiers. The rest of the soldiers were still carefully searching to see if any suspects had slipped through the net.

As for Su Pan’er, after exiting the cave, she directly jumped into a water tank and stayed there until she no longer felt a burning sensation on her back, only then did she rise.

The two female guards quickly approached to examine Su Pan’er’s injuries.

There were clear signs of burns on her back, causing a large area to blister.

As one cleaned the wound with clean water, the other applied ointment to Su Pan’er’s wound, both carrying a worried expression on their faces.

"My lady, this wound... I don’t know if it will leave a scar..."

"No matter, if there is a scar, then there is a scar!"

Su Pan’er, on the other hand, didn’t care about these things. The medicine she had prepared was very effective, and such burns should not pose a problem. As for the scars... she could simply squeeze the rascal pig for more when she got back!

Having made up her mind, she was not so worried anymore.

She couldn’t help but reach up to touch her hair that was in a complete mess, but as soon as she grabbed it, large clumps of burned hair fell off.

"Ah, I don’t even need to have my hair cut to be a nun now!"

While Su Pan’er made a casual joke, her statement shocked the two female guards and immediately turned them pale!

Both quickly fell to their knees.

"My lady!"

"Get up, get up. I was just saying, I don’t really plan to become a nun, don’t worry."

Su Pan’er quickly comforted the two, then remembered something: "The room earlier seemed to have a colored glazed mirror in it, go and fetch it for me."

The two finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly rose to fetch the mirror.

As long as she doesn’t intend to become a nun, they’re willing do to anything!

The colored glazed mirror of this era is extremely precious. The technique at this time isn’t good enough to forge such a large piece of glazed material to be used as a mirror. It’s really hard for the craftsmen of this era! So, this glazed mirror is extraordinarily precious, but it was unexpectedly found in such a remote and poor bandit den!

Su Pan’er picked up the colored glazed mirror. She found that the image reflected in this mirror was more clear than that in bronze mirrors and she could see every strand of hair, it was a rare find indeed.

She brushed her hair in front of the mirror, picked up the scissors, measured with her eyes, then started cutting. With the sound of cutting, the burned parts fell to the ground, leaving only an inch-long haircut on Su Pan’er head!

Looking at her reflection in the mirror, Su Pan’er was reminded of the time when she met Liu Lijin near Huangjue Temple. It seemed like her hair was this long back then...

"My lady, your hair... what should we do?"

"What to do? Just let it air dry."

Looking at her reflection in the mirror, Su Pan’er didn’t care about this matter at all. She doesn’t have the traditional belief that her own body and hair were gifted by her parents. After all, her hair would grow back after some time, it’s not a big deal!

"You go find a floral handkerchief, I need it."

Although she could be indifferent to others’ gazes, others could not be as composed as she was. To avoid causing unnecessary trouble, she decided to cover up her buzz cut.

A floral handkerchief was quickly found, and Su Pan’er casually wrapped it around her head. Mimicking the style of the local village girls, she concealed her buzzed haircut. Only then did she turn around and walk outside.

"Let’s go! It’s our turn to see how Uncle Xiao is dealing with things."

Uncle Xiao was currently counting the number of people and listing the property of the mountain village. Upon seeing Su Pan’er asking, he hurriedly replied, "My lady, we have already counted the number of people. Except for the chief, who escaped from the cave, everyone else is here."

"Hmm, you’ve worked hard, Uncle Xiao."

Su Pan’er paused slightly, "Did anyone go into the cave before? Did you find anything?"

"Replying to you, my lady, the cave has already collapsed and completely sealed off the entrance. We didn’t have enough manpower to explore the cave, so we had to return."

Uncle Xiao quickly told Su Pan’er everything he saw, "We also found the body of the missing brother in the cave, and we managed to bring him out. He is currently placed on the door panel over there."

"Hmm, he’s worked hard too. Double the bereavement payment for his family, you can simply take the extra from my monthly salary."

Su Pan’er said heavily.

One person was lost just by coming out, which gave her a heavy feeling in her heart.

"My lady, do not worry. I will handle this matter carefully."

Uncle Xiao replied, but in his mind, he was thinking about another issue.

Currently, everyone was outside and it wasn’t known when they could return to the capital, and whether the family of the deceased was still alive.
