After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

It was like a drowning person suddenly struggling out of the water.

Wen Baizhi was having trouble adapting to the sudden surge of oxygen.

She lay in bed in a cold sweat and took a while to breathe normally.

This is her own room.

But Sijiu is not here.

Si Jiu went out early in the morning. Looking at the time outside, it was almost dusk.

If he had come back, given his personality he would definitely be staying by her side right now.

So Si Jiu didn’t come back.

Wen Baizhi suddenly thought of the strange dream she had just had.

Based on previous experience, everything that happened in this dream must have really happened.

But Si Jiu had been in Kyoto before, and after reuniting with her, the two had been together all the time, and she had never seen him go to any mountains or forests, and it was even more impossible for him to fall down by the stream alone, soaking wet.

No, this is very wrong.

Wen Baizhi regained a lot of strength.

She needed to quickly find someone to confirm Si Jiu's current situation.

She lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

Cuizhi is not here either.

She walked out of the room, calling Cuizhi's name as she walked.

"Cuizhi, Cuizhi."

Just as she reached the end of the corridor, Cuizhi heard her voice from Ping'an.

She hurried out to check.

It turned out to be Wen Baizhi who had just woken up.

Cuizhi hurried over to support her: "Miss, you are awake, you are finally awake."

Wen Baizhi saw the obvious traces of tears on Cuizhi's face at a glance: "What happened? Are you crying?"

Cuizhi sniffed and said, "Miss, please come with me to see Ping An first, and then I will explain everything to you."

Wen Baizhi became even more confused and worried.

Cuizhi came out from Ping'an's room.

When Wen Baizhi first entered, she smelled a strong smell of blood in the room.

Rong Heng was trying hard to bandage the wounds of the seriously injured Ping An, and it was obvious that Cuizhi was helping him.

Ping An's upper body was almost completely wrapped in white cloth, his chest rose and fell very weakly, and his eyes were tightly closed.

Wen Baizhi turned around and nervously grabbed Cuizhi's hand: "Ping An, what happened to Ping An? Where's Si Jiu?"

Ping An has always been Si Jiu's personal servant. Now that he is injured like this, Si Jiu's condition must not be much better.

Cuizhi choked up and said, "Miss, you fainted suddenly this morning while eating and just woke up. Ping'an rushed back when you were unconscious. He was injured when he came back. Before he fainted, he told me that the master was ambushed outside and fell off the cliff with the carriage."

"what!"

After Wen Baizhi finished speaking, her whole body shook.

Cuizhi hurriedly clung to her: "Miss, you just woke up, you should also take care of yourself, Miss."

Wen Baizhi's eyes went dark for a while: "What, when did it happen? And where?"

Cuizhi carefully recalled what Ping'an said and repeated it to Wen Baizhi almost word for word.

Wen Baizhi clenched her fists, poked her palms with her nails, and tried hard to stay awake.

"Is Ping An the only one back? Where are the secret guards? Where are the secret guards around Si Jiu?"

Cuizhi's face was pale and she shook her head: "Ping An didn't say that. I'm sorry Miss, I didn't know."

When Wen Baizhi saw Cuizhi was about to cry, she realized that her tone just now was too harsh.

She apologized to Cuizhi: "I'm sorry, Cuizhi, I was too anxious just now and spoke rashly. I don't mean to blame you. This has nothing to do with you. You don't need to apologize. Wait until Ping'an wakes up, and then we can ask him."

It was at this time that Rong Heng's actions finally ended.

He rubbed his hands and said, "He was lucky to escape safely. Fortunately, he is in good health. Otherwise, most people would not survive such serious injuries."

Wen Baizhi glanced at Ping An who was still unconscious: "Do you know when he will wake up?"

Rong Heng heard the conversation between her and Cuizhi just now. He also knew that if he wanted to know about Si Jiu's situation now, he had to ask about Ping An.

But he also said with some embarrassment: "He was injured too badly. It's a blessing that he survived. I don't know when he will wake up."

Wen Baizhi said, "I can't wait that long, Rong Heng, you have to think of a way to wake Ping An up quickly. I have a question for him. Otherwise, if I miss the time to find Si Jiu, Ping An will hate himself."

That is true.

Ping An would rather die than see Si Jiu get hurt in the slightest.

A hint of hesitation flashed across Rong Heng's face.

Wen Baizhi added: "Since Ping An came back here to ask us for help with the intention of dying, he naturally hopes that we can find Si Jiu as soon as possible, but I still have many questions to ask him. Please Rong Heng, I know I am selfish, but when it comes to Si Jiu, I can't just sit back and do nothing."

Rong Heng made up his mind after hearing what she said, and said to Cuizhi, "Miss Cuizhi, please come and help me lift Ping'an up. I will give him an injection to wake him up temporarily, but he needs to take better care of himself afterwards."

Cuizhi responded and helped Ping'an up from the bed and leaned him against her.

He said Rong Heng's acupuncture skills were second to none and no one in the world dared to claim to be first.

So under his acupuncture, Ping An woke up slowly.

Cuizhi was worried that it would be bad if she put him down, so she kept him leaning on her.

Wen Baizhi sat beside the bed and asked Ping An directly: "Ping An, I'm sorry for you. I forced you to wake up when you were seriously injured. I just wanted to ask you more about Si Jiu."

Ping'an choked and coughed a few times, and Cuizhi rubbed his back from behind.

"Madam, Ping An failed to protect the master. If Ping An's worthless life can still be used, it will be a chance for Ping An to atone for his sins."

Wen Baizhi asked, "Shouldn't Si Jiu be accompanied by many secret guards? Why did Si Jiu disappear?"

Ping An lowered his eyes and said, "Madam, you don't know that half of the secret guards that the master brought with him were left by his side to protect you, and most of the remaining half were sent by the master to contact the people on the princess' side, and some went to meet up with Qi He, so the master doesn't have many secret guards with him this time.

The incident happened very quickly. A lot of people came, all of them highly skilled in martial arts. The secret guards and bodyguards suffered heavy casualties. We all swore to protect the master to the death, but the other side had more people. After the master's carriage fell off the cliff, I and the few remaining people divided the work.

Some people who can still move freely and are not seriously injured have gone to look for their master. Because I was seriously injured, I wanted to come back and report to you, Madam. Madam, Ping An failed to protect the master. He can never atone for his sin even if he dies a thousand times!"

After Ping An finished this long speech, he was no longer able to support himself and fainted again with his head tilted.

Rong Heng waved his hand: "This is already his limit."

Wen Baizhi said calmly: "I know you have all worked hard, leave the rest to me."
