Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Gu Yue got a headache when he thought about explaining all these complicated stories to Gu Xu.

He was not going to tell Gu Xu about the characters in the book.

The Taoist priest's words had a great impact on him, and he still hadn't figured it out. The Taoist priest said that there was only one way of heaven, and that there was no distinction between real and fake. It was scary enough that he thought he was also a fake person. He was troubled by this for a long time and almost got stuck in his heart.

He didn't want Gu Xu to bear all this.

Well, actually, he was not sure about the risks behind this. Would it lead to the collapse of the world? Or rather, he himself was not sure whether this was a novel, the "title" that had never been traced, the "capital" that he could not remember...

Perhaps, this is just a dream.

Thinking of this, Gu Yue felt a little depressed again. Seeing a deserted path in the woods on one side, with swaying trees and a gentle breeze, he looked at the map, confirmed the direction, and drove Xiaobai towards the path.

The bright sunlight was blocked by the leaves, and the surroundings suddenly became a little colder. Gu Yue took a deep breath and felt that the air was very refreshing.

Comfortable!

The depression in his heart was swept away, and Gu Yue directed Xiaobai to move forward slowly along the path. The forest was very small, and soon he came to a mountain wall with a flowing spring.

Gu Yue dismounted and let Xiaobai drink a few sips of water to quench his thirst. Then he followed the current and slowly walked downstream. But Xiaobai only took a few steps and refused to move forward, anxiously standing still.

Gu Yue didn't know much about horses, so he could only touch Xiao Bai's neck and said, "What's wrong? Are you tired or hungry? Don't you like to eat the grass on the side of the road?"

Xiaobai certainly couldn't speak, he just snorted and shook his head up and down repeatedly.

Gu Yue stood there for a while and suddenly understood why Xiaobai stopped moving forward.

The wind brought a very subtle smell of blood. If it weren't for the good air quality on this trail, he really wouldn't have been able to detect it.

Gu Yue suddenly became a little nervous: Could it be some ferocious beast? He quickly got on his horse, but did not give Xiaobai a signal to retreat. Xiaobai still stood there, neither moving forward nor backward.

It doesn't look like a wild beast, otherwise it would have run away long ago.

Gu Yue felt that it was not a good thing.

But he couldn't suppress his curiosity... He got off the horse again, loosened the reins, and walked two steps towards the source of the bloody smell.

Xiaobai nibbled on his back, and the horse's mouth kept moving, seeming very reluctant.

Gu Yue walked about five meters forward and saw the source of the bloody smell. A ragged man was lying by the stream, covered in blood, with one hand soaked in the stream water, which had turned white.

Dead people? No way?

He had seen many dead people since he came to Beiqin, and according to his memories of his previous life, he seemed to have been killed by someone. Thinking of this, Gu Yue felt relieved and walked forward to check.

When he got closer, he could see that he was not dead, and his face was still slightly flushed. Gu Yue reached out and touched his neck - it was still warm.

"Hey! This... brother!" Gu Yue patted his face gently and touched the man's greasy head. There was no external injury on his head. Could it be that he had lost too much blood?

The man groaned but did not wake up.

Gu Yue scooped some stream water and poured it on his face.

The blood on his face was cut open, and he looked at it carefully, and found that it was a young man with a regular face and a righteous look between his eyebrows. However, there was already a circle of beard around his lips, which made him look particularly sloppy.

Without any hesitation, Gu Yue dragged the man up and walked towards Xiaobai.

It has never been his style to stand by and watch someone in need.

The blood on this person was very old, some black and some red. When he walked to Xiaobai's side, Gu Yue's clothes were already dirty. He put this person on Xiaobai's back.

Xiaobai raised his hoof and dodged, preventing the man from getting on his back.

Gu Yue:?

"I can't drag him! Just stand still!" Gu Yue approached Xiaobai.

Xiaobai reluctantly moved again.

Gu Yue simply grabbed the saddle with one hand and pushed the man onto the horse's back with the other. Xiaobai sighed long and his tail mane kept swinging.

"You don't think it's dirty, do you? It's okay. You're not very clean to begin with. Take good care of yourself when you return to Luoyang." Gu Yue comforted her.

Xiaobai got angry and turned his horse's head to the side.

Gu Yue reopened the map. He had just restocked in the last town and was planning to take a shortcut to Luoyang, but now he had to find a village with a clinic to treat the man's injuries.

After determining the direction, Gu Yue led the horse and continued forward.

He looked back at the man from time to time. His eyelids were trembling and tightly closed. Gu Yue always felt that he was pretending to be unconscious. But before he could raise his guard, a knife was placed at his neck.

Gu Yue was horrified.

"Who... are you?" the man on horseback asked in a hoarse voice.

Gu Yue soon felt that the blade at his neck had no power, so he stepped back and naturally avoided the weapon; but Xiaobai was unwilling to do so, and shook the horse's hooves twice on the spot. The man was hit in the abdomen by the saddle, and he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and he couldn't hold the knife and it fell to the ground.

"I saved you out of kindness, but you pointed a knife at me?" Gu Yue picked up the knife.

It was just an ordinary dagger, covered in blood and with thick blood mud on the guard.

"You are..." The man raised his head with difficulty and looked at Gu Yue.

"I'm a fox spirit." Gu Yue pretended to be mysterious. "Have you heard of it? It's the kind of spirit in the mountains that has cultivated into a human. Who are you?"

The man opened his eyes slightly, half believing and half doubting.

After a moment, he said, "I am... Chen Song."

Gu Yue didn't believe it.

But he pretended to believe it and said, "I see. You are a quack? How did you become like that? But I'm not curious."

I'm very curious! Gu Yue thought.

"Now I'll take you to find a doctor to treat your injuries," he said.

Chen Song said weakly: "Why save me?"

"We fox spirits cannot kill people, and we cannot stand by and watch someone die, otherwise our cultivation will be ruined." Gu Yue said nonsense casually, "Saving you will increase my cultivation, so why not do it?"

Chen Song looked at him in a daze.

"This... Mr. Fox Fairy." Chen Song said, "Please don't alarm others. I know my injuries well and know a little about medicine. Please help me get the medicine, Mr. Fox Fairy. Please don't let anyone find me."

Fugitive? Gu Yue thought. He doesn't look like a fugitive.

He nodded and said, "Yes, sure. You can rest on the horse for a while. I'll call you when we're almost there."

"Okay, thank you, Master Fox Fairy." Chen Song was very sweet.

There were wounded men on the horse, so Gu Yue didn't dare let Xiaobai go too fast. Fortunately, the destination was clear, and they arrived at the nearest town before dark.

Gu Yue tied the horse in the grove near the town and said, "I'll be back soon. Don't ask me to buy any expensive medicine. I only have four taels of silver."

Chen Song seemed to be amused. He coughed twice and said a few names of medicines: "Please, Master Fox Fairy, ask the clinic to prepare them... I will watch over the horses here."
