"You should know that you have been poisoned. Why don't you come back to the village to find us? What are you doing here alone?" Zenmu asked the doubts that had been weighing on his heart all the way.

Qu Xiaoyou smiled bitterly and responded, "Yue Xiangsong has taken the Complete Book of Gu back to the Black Miao Village. What's the point of finding you?"

"We can go to the Black Miao Village to find him. It's better than you taking the risk alone with the poison." Zenmu retorted.

Qu Xiaoyou shook her head, looked at him with tearful eyes, and said, "I was unconscious due to the poison and almost bit Chan En. How could I dare to see others? It would be better if I saw you directly. You guys can control me together."

"But your residence is in the center of the village. If I want to see you, I must pass through the village. The village is full of residents. What if I can't control myself and hurt them?"

"So, my remaining sanity told me that I had to go to a deserted place immediately.

"So I came here, intending to go through the forest to the Black Miao Village, but I couldn't control myself halfway through the journey."

After listening to her story, Zenmu looked at her quietly, unable to speak for a long time.

The poison was deadly and the person was about to die. Her last thought was not to find them quickly for help, but to take the risk of leaving alone for fear of hurting others.

He knew that if he found her a little later tonight, she would definitely be dead!

He underestimated the kindness of this girl.

As if she had guessed what he was thinking, Qu Xiaoyou sighed and said, "Although I am not as kind-hearted and compassionate as you, I cannot allow myself to hurt innocent people."

"You are great." For the first time, Zenmu praised her seriously.

Qu Xiaoyou glanced at him sideways and said, "I don't deserve it."

"Okay, it looks like your poison has been temporarily controlled. I'll take you back first." Zen Mu stood up after saying that. As soon as he stood up, he felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground again.

"Mu Tou!" Qu Xiaoyou shouted nervously, but did not get up to help him.

Zenmu managed to stand up, realized something was wrong with her, turned around and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Qu Xiaoyou lowered her head and pointed at her right ankle, saying sullenly, "It's sprained. It's badly swollen. I can't walk."

When Zenmu heard this, a look of worry appeared in his eyes, and he squatted down to check her injuries.

Sure enough, her ankle was red and swollen, like a steamed bun.

"Let me carry you." Zenmu said helplessly, squatting down with his back to her.

Qu Xiaoyou didn't lie on his back, but said worriedly: "No, you fed me so much blood, and you couldn't even stand steadily just now, how can you carry me and walk?"

"Let's try it. We have to hurry back. I don't know when your poison will break out again. If it does, I won't have any extra blood to feed you." Zenmu sighed.

"Okay then." Qu Xiaoyou had no choice but to lean on his strong back, "Should we go to the Black Miao Village or go back to find Younan and the others?"

Zenmu stood up with her on his back with some difficulty, taking shaky steps as he responded, "Yue Xiangsong didn't return to the Black Miao Village. The parents of the boy who bit you asked us for an antidote, saying that the boy was dying, so we stopped Yue Xiangsong and he is now making an antidote for you in the White Miao Village."

"So that's how it is..." Qu Xiaoyou nodded in understanding, and murmured with some fear, "So, if you don't find me tonight, I'm dead."

Zenmu had lost too much blood and was struggling to walk. After walking for a while, large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. His face was completely bloodless and as pale as a piece of paper.

"Mu Tou, you can't hold on any longer, put me down." Seeing that he was walking slower and slower and his steps were getting heavier, Qu Xiaoyou urged him worriedly.

Zenmu's Adam's apple rolled, and a feeling of dizziness suddenly came over him like a tide. He could no longer hold on, his eyes went dark, and he fell to the ground with Qu Xiaoyou on his back.

"Mu Mu!" Qu Xiaoyou shouted in horror. Unable to walk, she knelt on the ground and crawled to Zen Mu's side. She lifted up his upper body and held him in her arms, calling him in panic.

"Mu Tou, Mu Tou, what's wrong with you? Wake up and don't scare me!"

While shouting, she pinched Zenmu's Ren Zhong point hard with her hands.

Zenmu soon woke up from his fainting, and opened his eyes weakly. He saw that his upper body was lying in her arms. He wanted to move away, but he was so tired that he couldn't even move a finger.

"Mu Tou, Mu Tou, you're awake, you scared me to death!" Qu Xiaoyou loosened her hands that were pinching the man's acupoints. She was fearless in the face of death, but at this moment she was trembling with fear.

"I... I'm fine. I just lost too much blood. I can just replenish it later." Zenmu comforted her in a low voice.

Qu Xiaoyou held Chanmu tightly in her arms, looking around helplessly, her voice tinged with tears, "We seem to be lost, and we can't walk anymore. What should we do?"

It would have been fine if she was alone, but Zenmu fainted due to excessive blood loss, and her hope for survival suddenly became extremely strong.

Zenmu lay in her arms with his eyes barely open. In the bright moonlight, he saw the girl, who had always been strong and brave, showing an expression he had never seen before.

Fear, worry, grievance, hesitation, and helplessness, just like a frightened deer in the forest, pitiful and not knowing where to go.

"Don't... don't worry, let's rest first, our junior sisters will come to find us." He comforted her with reluctance.

Qu Xiaoyou nodded and was silent for a while. She said to him anxiously, "If you can't hold on, I'll go with you."

Zenmu's heart tightened, and he scolded, "Silly girl, don't say stupid things."

Qu Xiaoyou shook her head, her expression more serious than ever before, "Without a father or mother, without relatives or elders, it is redundant to live in this world. You are my only concern and yearning. If you are gone, I will really have nothing to live for."

Zenmu couldn't describe the feeling in his heart, he just felt his eyes were sore. He felt sympathy and distressed for this girl.

"We'll be fine." After thinking for a long time, he could only say this.

Next, Qu Xiaoyou kept talking in Chanmu's ear, asking him to answer, fearing that he would fall asleep when she wasn't paying attention.

Zenmutou felt so dizzy that sweat broke out all over his body. He was so uncomfortable that he didn't even want to move his lips, but he still responded to her intermittently.

"You must look good with long hair."

Qu Xiaoyou suddenly said this, and Zenmu raised his drooping eyelids and looked at her face.

Before he could see her face clearly, two heavy drops of water fell and hit him heavily in the face.
