General regrets the original [rebirth]
Chapter 40
The sudden change lasted for an unknown amount of time.
Xiao Qi galloped his horse wildly, running towards the side of the mountain, until there was no more frightening tremors behind him for a long time, then he loosened the rein and let the horse stop.
The weight of two people was added to a horse, and it was hit on the buttocks, and the horse was also exhausted.
Xiao Qi heaved a sigh of relief, the energy he had been holding back all this time was gone, he felt the belated weakness, and the suppressed instincts of his body surged up.
Her limbs were clammy and restless, and she didn't know whether it was because she had been in the rain for too long or she had lost too much blood. She was trembling instinctively.
Min Yu'an didn't speak all the way, huddled in her arms without any movement, now stopped, still no response.
Xiao Qi was a little worried that the accident just now had frightened her, so he asked in a soft voice: "Princess, are you okay?"
Min Yu'an didn't say a word, but shrank into her arms again.
Xiao Qi wanted to laugh inexplicably, but she actually felt a little cute, she thought, she was really crazy.With such a serious matter, I still have the mood to laugh.
She shook her head hard, throwing out all the extra thoughts, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, we are safe."
"There is no danger. With me here, nothing will happen to you."
Min Yu'an finally made a movement, turned his head to look at her, there was blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, Xiao Qi's expression froze, and his smile disappeared, she asked: "But where did you get hurt?"
"No injury," Min Yu'an shook his head, "I didn't pay attention to the bite myself."
It's good that he wasn't injured, but the bloodstains are still very dazzling, Xiao Qi controlled his gaze not to look at the corner of Min Yu'an's mouth.
Added: "It's not too safe now. We have been in the rain for so long and bumped for a long time. We have to find a place to rest."
***
The horse swayed forward slowly.
When we arrived at a place with dense trees, the terrain here was complicated and the soil was compacted. Presumably, what happened just now should not happen.
Xiao Qi jumped off the horse, and passed his hand to Min Yu'an: "Okay, let's rest here for a while."
Min Yu'an held her hand, probably because he had been running around for too long, and his body could not use his strength. When he got off the horse, his legs and feet went limp and he threw himself into Xiao Qi's arms.
Both bodies were drenched by the rainstorm and blown by the cold wind, icy cold.As soon as he touched it, Xiao Qi was so cold that he shivered, and she gasped.
When the energy passed and he recovered, he wanted to tease her to ease the atmosphere.
"Are your legs weak?" It was a teasing voice, "Why can't you stand still?"
The previous roles seemed to be reversed at this moment. After being frightened, the passive party became Min Yu'an.
Min Yu'an was so angry that his teeth were itching, it was this time, and he was still in the mood to make a joke!
She wanted to justify a few words, and straightened up from Xiao Qi's arms, but she gave up the idea when her eyes touched her.
The back of the person in front of her is still straight, her face is pale and terrifying, and the corner of her mouth is smiling, she is good-looking and has her own strength, and the anger she just gave out disappeared without a trace.
Min Yu'an calmed down, remembered the business, and asked, "What was that just now?" The scene seemed to be falling apart, and there seemed to be an abyss behind him chasing people away, which made people panic.
Even now that she has fled to a safe place, she still can't forget about it, as if she is still in it.
"Could it be an earthquake?" She was still in shock, although she was relieved by Xiao Qi's interruption, she was still a little scared.
If there is an earthquake, there must be more than one wave, and there will be more in the future.
Xiao Qi shook his head: "No, there are no cracks on the ground, it should be that the heavy rain for several days made the soil soft, and the sudden heavy rain washed all the soil and trees from high places down."
"Don't be afraid, the trees here are lush and the soil is very firm. There will be no more such things. We are safe and fine."
Min Yu'an felt relieved, no longer worried, and said again: "Are you...does it hurt?"
The same words are asked, and the person who answers is also the same.
Xiao Qi was startled, and wanted to comfort the little princess, resisting the discomfort in his body: "It doesn't hurt."
"You're lying!" Min Yu'an was so angry that he was so anxious and anxious, but he didn't know what to do. This man still refused to tell the truth.The conditions are so bad, if the wound is not treated, it will be more serious.
"It's clear that your face is pale from the pain, your lips are bloodless, and your mouth is still stiff!"
Xiao Qi smiled helplessly, and he didn't speak harshly any more. The weakness in what he said was obvious: "The little princess saw it."
She still didn't want her to worry too much, as if nothing happened, she didn't care and said: "It really doesn't hurt. I have experienced this kind of injury a lot, and I am used to it. To me, it is nothing."
"I just have to trouble the little princess to pull out the arrow for me. This wound can't be delayed any longer." She was apologetic at this point.I didn't want the little princess to be exposed to such a bloody thing, but the situation was pressing.
Even if the bleeding is to be suppressed, it should not be tied for too long, otherwise the bound place will not get sufficient blood supply, and it will easily die. At that time, the whole arm will not be able to keep it. A one-armed man is not what she wants.
Xiao Qi turned his head and used his teeth to assist his left hand to tear off the cloth that bound his arm. His numb arm felt sore after a long time, but the blood stopped flowing. Thinking that the binding just now worked, then Well, if the blood bleeds again, she really can't hold it anymore.
She smiled and said, "Princess, don't be afraid. You can pull it off with a little force. It's not a big deal."
So what matters!
The injury is so serious!
Min Yu'an almost blurted out, but when he touched the man's warm eyes, he stopped, what's the use of arguing with her.
She was already in such a bad mood, and she was still arguing about what was right and wrong.
Min Yu'an pursed his lips and said hello.
He was about to cut through the fabric with his sword, but he was stunned: "But, the clothes are all wet, and there is no clean fabric."
After being drenched in rain and contaminated with unclean things, if such cloth strips come into contact with the wound, it will only aggravate the condition.
Xiao Qi was also stunned, and he didn't expect that he would forget this, his mind was really broken.
"Forget it, just insert it like this, it won't bleed anyway, just sit down and rest."
***
Xiao Qi took a long sword and planned to cut off a few branches, and turned them across to use as a bench.
Just after the heavy rain, the ground is full of puddles, so we can't let the little princess just sit on the ground, right?
Who knew that she was stopped by Min Yu'an as soon as she touched the sword: "I'm so hurt, what do you want to bother with?!" There was blame in her tone, but it was not difficult to hear the concern inside.
"I just want to cut some branches to make a stool."
"Let me go! I don't have long hands, you have to worry about everything?"
The princess who has always been pampered and has impeccable posture and etiquette is cutting down trees with her sword. This scene is really funny, Xiao Qi couldn't help but want to laugh, if Mother Wei were here, she would probably jump in a hurry.
But when she thought that she was doing this for her own sake, she smiled again.
She said: "Don't be afraid, little princess, when it's over, someone will come to us, just wait."
However, Min Yu'an caught the loophole in her words. He was anxious just now and didn't care about what she called her. Now that he calmed down, he realized something was wrong: "Who is the little princess?"
I regard you as a general, but you actually call me a little princess?They are all inferior!
Xiao Qi: "..." The injury broke his brain, and he subconsciously yelled out.
Losing blood makes you lose your mind.
silence.
Looking at her pale face, Min Yu'an didn't know whether it was sweat or rain that slid down her cheeks, her eyelashes were pressed down and trembled, she half-opened her eyes, looking very tired, but tried her best to comfort herself.
Although Xiao Qi tried his best to hide his weakness, his appearance still betrayed her.
Forget it, why bother with her.
As long as you're safe and sound, that's more important than anything else.
The sky gradually darkened, but there was no trace of anyone who came to look for them.There was no sound of footsteps, only the chirping of birds and the sound of the wind could be heard in this huge forest, and some raindrops were blown down by the wind.
Xiao Qi waited a little bit, and became a little anxious.
The temperature in her body was losing bit by bit, her eyes turned black, and she couldn't sit still, she really wanted to just lie on her back and close her eyes and not care about anything.
As soon as this thought came to her, she was so startled that she immediately woke up.
Can't wait any longer.
How cold is the night in late autumn?
The clothes are soaked, and there is no dry firewood to light the fire, and the iron body can't stand it.
Not to mention that she was injured at the moment, and the little princess was so delicate, if she just fainted like this, what would the little princess do?
"Princess," Xiao Qi broke the silence, his voice was hoarse and subtle, revealing a reassuring force, "I can't wait anymore, I'll take you to find a place to rest for a night before we talk about it."
Don't pin all your hopes on others, this is the reason she sacrificed her life for.
She thought that the imperial guards would come to find them, so she waited here, but if it was dark, she would not be able to wait.
In the deep mountains and old forests, the most indispensable thing is wild beasts. She cannot protect herself at this moment, let alone protect Min Yu'an.
That's right, a princess without real power, how can it be worth these people's lives?
Min Yu'an understood what she said, and asked her: "Where can I find these people in the barren mountains?" She looked up and saw no one, she wondered if she could wait for the people who came to find them, Xiao Qi's injury... After all, It's still my own fault.
If she hadn't thought about the love of her children and wanted to be alone with the general, if she hadn't sent Ke Yi Ke Wu away, if she hadn't willfully wanted a wild goose...
If it is not the general, he will not be injured and will not be subject to this danger.
Xiao Qi didn't know what was going on in her mind, he just said: "There is always a cave or something, it doesn't matter if it can shelter from the wind and rain, if you look for it, you will find it."
***
This accident was unexpected. Manpower is not worth mentioning in the face of natural disasters. No matter how high or low the status is, the ability to survive depends on luck.
Not far from the foot of the mountain.
The emperor was wrapped in a blanket and sat in the newly erected tent, his face was worried, and his brows were frowning.
There were many guards around him, but he was frightened and drenched in the rain, but was not injured, and was quickly retreated from the mountain by protection.
Meng He announced at the door, and his voice was not as drawn out as in the past: "Your Majesty, Commander Qi is asking to see you."
"Announce him to come in." The emperor's words revealed a threatening attitude, he was so angry that he had already had a wave, and he threw all those who supervised the affairs of Qintian into the prison and planned to behead him.
He didn't return to the palace for a long time, just waiting for the imperial guards to find traces of Min Yu'an.
The prince is already safe with him, but Min Yu'an, when he thinks that something will happen to his well-behaved queen-like daughter, he feels very heartbroken.
"Where's Ann?" the emperor asked.
Meng He stretched his neck at the door, his ears pricked up, Her Royal Highness, please don't worry.
The commander of the imperial army trembling, gritted his teeth and said: "Go back to the emperor, I have searched below, but there is no shadow of the princess. The road collapsed badly, and the road was blocked by mountains and rocks, so I couldn't find the way. The princess, I'm afraid it's..."
Jiao Didi's daughter's family is facing a dangerous situation, and the chance of surviving is very slim.
The emperor understood what he had said, and threw the ginger soup he was holding on to his head: "What do I raise you to eat! Waste!"
He stood up suddenly, walked back and forth like a trapped animal, managed to calm down, and said: "Immediately, call all the forbidden troops, move the rocks away for me, and open the way if there is no way!"
"Yes, I will do it immediately." Commander Qi boldly remonstrated against his anger, "Your Majesty, this place is not safe yet, please move back to the palace."
The emperor laughed back in anger: "You want me to flee back alone, regardless of An'er?"
Commander Qi almost threw himself to the ground: "I dare not, I am terrified."
"Get off! You don't have to come back if you can't find An'er!"
"Yes."
Commander Qi bowed and retreated, and ordered his subordinates to gather more people, intending to open the way overnight.
Qi Wenyu was on the side, watching him give orders, looked at his face, and said anxiously: "Father..."
Father Qi waved his hand and sighed: "I don't know where the princess has gone, why can't I find anyone."
Qi Wenyu's movements froze. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated and shut up.
If he speaks out at this time, he will not have any good fruit to eat.
If the princess is back, I want to question his crime; if the princess can’t be found, I want to ask him about his crime.
If people don't kill heaven and earth for themselves, their own lives are more important.
***
Before the autumn hunt begins.
With a father who is the commander of the Imperial Army, Qi Wenyu must of course accompany such a big event as Autumn Hunting.He dressed up well today, he was in high spirits, eager to try, and wanted to become famous in this autumn hunt.
Qi Wenyu looked at the more beautiful princess from a distance, and felt like thousands of ants crawling in his heart, an unresolved itch.
Princess, it should belong to him.
He didn't know how many girls in the imperial city were the dream lovers, but the woman he was thinking of all the time became someone else's wife!
Xiao Qi!
If it wasn't for this Xiao Qi, the person next to the princess should be me!
He gritted his teeth and thought bitterly, the hatred of taking his wife is irreconcilable, I will make you pay the price!How can a trash from a humble background be worthy of a princess with golden branches and jade leaves?
With a sullen expression on his face, he squeezed the whip tightly in his hand.
Qiu Lie, let this son-in-law make a fool of himself.
Qi Wenyu specially ordered people to bring arrows without the logo of the Forbidden Army, and secretly followed Xiao Qi and Min Yu'an, so that even if they were shot, no one would know that he did it.
He didn't want to kill anyone.
He just wanted to teach him a lesson, and he just wanted to see how embarrassed this son-in-law was.
When shooting arrows, he specially instructed his subordinates to avoid the princess and only aim at Xiao Qi.
Didn't it mean that Yu Wanjun took the head of the enemy's leader from it, and the mere rain of arrows should not be able to do anything to him, right?
Qi Wenyu thought distortedly, so he did so.
I didn't even think about killing people.
Who would have expected that the rocks would slip like this?This is life.
He took a few followers with him, he ran away after shooting the arrow successfully, who knew that Xiao Qi was so powerful, he could shoot multiple arrows with one shot, and seriously injured several of his brothers with only one draw of the bow.
The strength was still unabated, the arrow pierced through the flesh, screaming in pain.
Only he, Qi Wenyu, was lucky. He tripped over a stone and sprained his foot. The arrow brushed the side of his face and passed without any injuries.
then.
then……
When they fled, they were afraid that Xiao Qi would catch up, they panicked and got separated.
It was also Qi Wenyu's luck that the direction of escape happened to allow him to escape the disaster, but after he went down the mountain, he didn't see any trace of his follower, so he probably suffered a disaster.
He thought about whether to go to the princess, but, but he also wanted to live.What if the rock slides down again?What if I'm not so lucky next time?
This is a natural disaster, who can guarantee that he will survive?
Qi Wenyu bowed his head, he hesitated, Qi's father had already taken people out of the camp, probably to dig a road.
He hid his unpredictable expression, and the scratch left by the arrow on his cheek was painful.
You can only blame you for going the wrong way, and it has nothing to do with me.As for the princess, since you didn't choose me to be your son-in-law, you will have to bear the consequences yourself, it's fate.
It's just a woman, as long as he lives, what kind of woman can't he get?
***
When it's cold, it gets dark early, and it's rainy again, so the sky dims faster.
Xiao Qi led the horse, and Min Yu'an pulled up the hem of her clothes, and they went to find a place to live together.
With the drizzle hitting his face, Min Yu'an was numb from the cold, and his teeth chattered uncontrollably.
But this person next to me...
Min Yu'an's eyes were tightly glued to Xiao Qi's body, the wound was slightly coagulated just now, his right arm no longer oozes blood, after being washed by the heavy rain, the water took away the blood, and the indigo cloth showed its original color, slightly exposed The wound was slightly white, and the arrow shook violently as she moved.
Like a normal person, Xiao Qi continued to search for the cave, let go of the rein from time to time, used his left hand to push aside the branches and leaves that were hidden in front of his eyes, if he was looking for nothing, he took the rein and continued to search.
This action has been repeated many times, and she never tires of it.
Min Yu'an bit his lip desperately. There was pain from the place where he was bitten just now, but a small cut hurts like this. How much pain should it be for you?
It's all because I'm useless, and everything drags you down.
They only go to places with dense trees, where there are not enough caves dug by wild animals or naturally formed.
Sure enough, it was found on a mountain wall.
The cave is not big, it can accommodate two people and a horse, and it is only enough to keep out the wind and rain.
**
In the son-in-law's mansion, Rong Chu was going crazy.
Xiao Qi greeted her before going out, saying that he was only participating in the autumn hunting, and there were imperial guards guarding him, so what danger could there be?
Rong Chu didn't take it seriously, she and Lin Hanbai went shopping, halfway through the shopping, it suddenly rained heavily.
Thunder and lightning.
The lightning seemed to split the sky.
In what seemed like an instant, the drizzle turned into a downpour, drenching people from head to toe.
As soon as it rained, she was a little worried, but thinking of the royal ostentation, she must have made sufficient preparations.
The street is closer to the son-in-law's mansion, so Rong Chu took Lin Hanbai back to the mansion to change the laundry, and she was worried about rushing back due to the heavy rain.
But she waited and waited, but there was no news from Xiao Qi.
Anyway, it's raining heavily, so it's time to return, right?
Rong Chu hated herself for being powerless. If anything happened, she could only wait silently, unable to help.
Lin Hanbai came in with a bowl and put it in front of Rong Chu. There was no change of clothes, and the size of Rong Chu's clothes she was wearing actually fit her right.
Lin Hanbo comforted: "Don't worry, she will be fine."
Rong Chu nodded absently.
Butler Li ran in in a panic: "My lord, there are people coming from the palace."
Rong Chu immediately stood up to greet him.
The emperor was angry and worried that it was too late, how could he think of someone sending a message to the brother-in-law's brother.The little eunuch who delivered the order was sent by Meng He, and he couldn't bear to deliver such news for the first time: "The princess and her son-in-law are lost in the mountains, and they have not been found yet."
Rong Chu sent the messenger away like a ghost, fell down and sat down, covered his face with his hands, lost his mind.
Lin Hanbai put his hands on her body and felt a slight shock in his body under his palms. After a while, there was a soft cry, full of despair.
"I should know, this capital has always been full of crises, it would be nice to go back sooner."
"There must be nothing wrong..."
***
The worries of outsiders could not be conveyed no matter how, Min Yu'an and Xiao Qi didn't know the worries of the family members, now, survival is the most important thing.
It seemed that in an instant, they settled down in the cave, and it was dark.
The black hole is like a huge mouth of an abyss, as if it will swallow people in the next moment.
There is no light in the small cave, and there are only a few dead branches in the cave. It is not enough to light a fire, so we can only endure the darkness.
In such a wilderness, without light, people seem to have lost their backbone, hope is slim, and they simply have people around them to accompany them.
Ordinary horses sleep standing up, but this horse is exhausted and tired, so it sleeps soundly lying on the entrance of the cave.
Horses are carefree, but people are not.
Min Yu'an took off his wet clothes and shoes, leaving only a layer of obscene clothes on his body.
Xiao Qi was far away from her, sitting on the horse seat, Xiao Qi kept in mind the words "see no evil", even in the dark, he didn't dare to look up at her.
What kind of "see no evil" exists between two women?
Of course, only when you have moved your mind on her.
It's a pity that Xiao Qi, who is not so clear-headed, will not think about why she hides like this, but according to her way of thinking, even if she is sober, she probably won't be able to remember this.
Min Yu'an was helpless, what time was it, and he was still talking about these clichés.
She used a coaxing tone: "It's so cold, why don't you take off your wet clothes first? What if you get a cold from wearing them?" The wound was not serious, but it bled so much, and it rained again. If you wear the clothes you wear on your body, nothing will happen to you!
Xiao Qi thought for a while, then nodded slowly, her wound had already started to heat up, her eyes turned black, and she felt dizzy like a shadow.
The arrow was in the way, and in order to avoid touching the wound, she neatly cut open her clothes with the sword.
So he took off his coat, but he refused to take off the inside.
She still remembered that she had a cotton cloth tied inside her chest and was stuffed with an iron plate for support.
There is only one thought in the brain that is no longer awake - no matter what, the little princess can't find out her identity.
So be it.
Seeing that she didn't want to take it off, Min Yu'an didn't force her to take it off. She would take it off after she fell asleep at night.Revealing her identity now and scaring her would probably be even worse for her health.
Min Yu'an moved over and leaned on the horse with her.
Most of the wind blowing in from the cave was blocked by the horse. The horse's fur dried out quickly, and bursts of warmth radiated out, allowing the two cold people to have a place to rely on.
Just when Min Yu An took off his coat, he took out a purse from his bosom and held it in his hand, it was torn from Xiao Qi's body the day she tied Xiao Qi into the palace.
She placed it next to her body, fearing that the body temperature would melt the sugar, so she specially wrapped several layers of oiled paper, so the sugar was intact under the heavy rain.
Sugar is a good thing, it can only be regarded as a pastime on weekdays, but it is a life-saving thing at this moment.
She tore open the purse, peeled off the oiled paper layer by layer, and smiled softly: "Fortunately, I have been carrying it with me, and I have added a lot of sugar to it, so it will come in handy now."
Before Xiao Qi could react, he went inside in a daze.
Min Yu'an picked up a candy and handed it to Xiao Qi's lips: "Eat the candy."
Xiao Qi obeyed subconsciously, opened his mouth, the hard stuff was stuffed into his mouth, and then the sweetness she was familiar with spread out between his lips and teeth, and the bland lips and teeth immediately felt excited.
Even the reaction with blood loss slowed down a lot, she said, "You can eat too."
Min Yu'an listened to her and threw a candy backhand into his mouth, enjoying the rare sweetness after the disaster.
Min Yu'an crossed his arms, and moved towards Xiao Qi's side, and stopped when he touched her left shoulder.
The two leaned close, and Min Yu'an asked her, "My son-in-law, tell me, when will they find us?"
Xiao Qi was trying his best to resist the layer upon layer of dizziness in her mind, she struggled to speak: "I will find it, I will."
No answer.
Min Yu'an raised his head, wanting to ask questions, for peace of mind.
But he saw this person fell straight down and smashed into his arms, and the bones hurt from the collision.
She couldn't take it anymore.
He was injured and lost blood, and was exposed to rain and cold wind. No matter how hard he was, he couldn't bear it anymore.
Finally found a shelter, relaxed her mind, Xiao Qi couldn't hold on anymore, the instinctive reaction of her body that had been forcibly suppressed surged up, and she passed out.
Min Yu'an patted her twice, but there was no response, so she hugged the person in her arms tightly, clasped her hands tightly, and the cold temperature passed through the wet and cold clothes, and she suddenly realized that this person's body was so thin.
It is clear that it looks fine on weekdays, but I didn't pay attention to it.
She was very annoyed, but now was not the time to think about it.
Min Yu'an gently put Xiao Qi down, let her lean against the horse, then got up and went outside over the hole, broke off a few branches of trees, took them back to the hole and inserted them into the ground, acting as a temporary drying rack, where there is a little cool wind blowing Yes, just enough to dry clothes.
Wearing wet clothes on the body is only harmful but not beneficial.So she took it off for her as a matter of course, and hung them all on a temporary clothes hanger.
After everything was done, Min Yu'an returned to the original place, holding the sleeping man tightly in his arms.
With his chin resting on top of her head and feeling her heartbeat in his chest, Min Yu'an murmured, it will be fine, everything will be fine.
***
The two leaned against each other, instinctively looking for a source of heat.
Min Yu'an was not a little stimulated today, and his body was a little bit overwhelmed, so he fell asleep with exhaustion.
She was woken up by the heat in her arms, which was frighteningly high.
The person who was still as cold as iron before going to bed did not know when his body temperature rose to the point of scalding, like a huge furnace emitting heat.
His face was abnormally red, his lips were chapped and peeled, and they were tightly pressed together. In such a cold day, there was still sweat coming out of his cheeks.
Xiao Qi curled up in her arms, trembling slightly, curled up into a ball, the mask had already slipped to the ground, and the half of his face with the scar was exposed, looking extraordinarily fragile.
Sure enough, she still had a high fever.
This was also expected. Min Yu'an had already prepared himself mentally. Although he couldn't help but sigh, he still calmly acted according to the plan that had been thought through thousands of times in his heart.
It was useless to worry, she had to deal with everything methodically.
The first thing to deal with is the wound.
The place where the shot was shot was no longer the whitish look it had seen before. Because it was not treated effectively and in a timely manner, and the torrential rain and cold wind made it worse, the wound naturally swelled up and was still red.
There was a faint light coming from outside, and Min Yu'an touched the clothes that were hanging before going to bed, and they were still wet.
She sighed helplessly, and touched one by one. Fortunately, the strips of cotton cloth used to wrap her chest were dry due to its lightness and breathability.
After weighing it slightly, she made a decision.
The long strip of cloth was cut by the tip of the sword, and it was divided into two, one half was used to bandage the wound, and the other half was wrapped by Xiao Qi when someone came to find them, and used as a cover.
The half used for bandaging was divided into a small piece and carefully folded for later use.
Min Yu'an's hand caressed Xiao Qi's face lightly, and he couldn't bear her to suffer any more, but if he didn't deal with it in time, whether his life would be saved would be a problem.
She took a slightly cleaner shirt, carefully folded it into a square size, squeezed Xiao Qi's jaw open with one hand, and stuffed it in.Even though he was still in a coma, he would still feel pain. Under the severe pain, he was worried that Xiao Qi would bite him, so a piece of fabric was the best choice.
After preparing, she moved her palms, took a deep breath, and then pulled out the arrow as quickly as possible.
Xiao Qi snorted, his brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes were still closed, but painful sobs overflowed from his throat.The chapped lips were torn apart from the force, and the cloth used for the bite was stained red.
Min Yu'an resolutely didn't look at her, and the movements of his hands quickened.
There was no fire, no spirits, no medicine, no boiling hot water, this kind of bandaging was wrong, if a doctor would point at her nose and scold her here, but she had to keep doing it.
Layers of small cloth strips were placed on the wound, and the white cloth was wrapped round and round around her arm. She tied a knot to make sure that it was tight enough not to tighten it too hard, so she relaxed.
She stared at the wrapped wound, and after a while, there was blood oozing out, but it didn't flow too much, and the red circle didn't seem to continue to expand.
Good luck.
Min Yu'an finally had the mind to divert his attention to other places, and when he moved his gaze up, he saw the blood on Xiao Qi's lips.
!!!
She used her hands to separate Xiao Qi's clenched lips and teeth, and looked inside, the light pink tongue was retracted deep, and there was no wound.Nothing on the tongue, that's blood on the lips.
She regretted it so much that she went to treat the wound, why did she forget about it?
The lips are dry and cracked, won't they crack if you apply more force?How confused!
Min Yu'an ran out in a hurry. After the rainstorm, there were still drops of water on the branches. She took off a large leaf, collected the rainwater, and carried it carefully into the cave.
The water bowl made simply from leaves was put aside, and Min Yu'an gently wiped the blood on her lips with a cloth strip, then helped her lean against him, and carefully picked up the water bowl.
Clear water was hard-won, and she cherished it very much.
But the drowsy and unconscious person does not cherish it very much. The water is poured from the bowl made of leaves, and it only stays between the lips for a moment before going down.
How do you not know how to swallow? !
Min Yu'an was extremely anxious. People with high fever would lose water in their bodies quickly due to the rise in body temperature, and it would be even worse if they didn't replenish water in time, but how could this person be so disobedient when he fell asleep!
Min Yu'an pinched Xiao Qi's lips, poured some water into it, and then closed his lips for her.
It didn't work, the water still overflowed from the corners of the lips.
She was restless, and couldn't think of a better way for a while, so she simply poured herself a mouthful of water, then leaned over and fell on it.

Min Yu'an had no experience of living in the deep mountains.
In her previous life, even in the most desolate second half of her life, she only sold her jewelry for money and exchanged fields for self-sufficiency.It's not bad to be able to recognize common crops.
Now Xiao Qi is still in a coma, Min Yu'an is worried about leaving her alone, and there is no edible food nearby, so Min Yu'an can only feed her some water every once in a while.
There is still a lot of sugar left in the purse, and it is fed every other time. Sugar is a rare tonic for people who are sick now.
The horse woke up early, and Min Yu'an tied it to a nearby tree to let it graze by itself.
It got hit on the butt yesterday, but it was nothing serious, presumably Xiao Qi restrained his strength and didn't hurt anything serious.
If there were people who couldn't wait for the rescue, Min Yu'an thought, at least he could ride down the mountain and find a way by himself.
The premise is that Xiao Qi is fine.
Min Yu'an has never studied medicine, she only knows that unclean wounds will rot if they are closed for a long time.But she didn't dare not to bandage the wound, so she could only loosen the wound every once in a while to breathe.
But no matter how hard she tried, the comatose person never woke up.
Only the slightly lower body temperature told her that Xiao Qi might be getting better.
The horse was tied outside the cave, and the cave entrance was completely open. Min Yu'an shielded her from the wind with his back turned to the cave entrance, cut a piece of clothing into cloth strips with a sword, wet it with water and applied it on Xiao Qi's forehead, and the rest The cloth strips took turns to wipe her face and body with water.
In this way, I repeatedly got up to fetch water, twisted the cloth, applied the forehead, and wiped the body, and repeated it many times in a day.
When the light from outside gradually dissipated and the cave turned dark, Xiao Qi's body temperature finally returned to normal and his complexion turned better.
Min Yu'an, who was always paying attention to her situation, finally felt relieved. It should be nothing serious, right?
The rain-soaked clothes hung on a makeshift drying rack for a day and a night, but they finally dried up.Min Yu'an got a headache after dressing Xiao Qi one by one, how should he explain the missing piece of chest cloth?
Shall we expose her?
But Xiao Qi's situation is better now, it's not good to be frightened, right?
After thinking about it, she just closed her eyes like this, there will always be a way, and I will talk about it when the time comes.
***
When Xiao Qi woke up again, it was already the third day since they arrived in the cave.
She hadn't eaten much for two days, was injured and lost blood, and had a high fever, so she struggled to open her eyes.
Xiwei's morning light came in from the entrance of the cave, and she blinked hard—little princess?
Now that the horse has recovered, it naturally sleeps standing up, and it is inconvenient for them to rely on it to keep warm—couldn't they rely on the horse's hoof?If that horse kicks a leg, it can kick a person into internal injuries.
Min Yu'an fell asleep leaning against the cave wall, wearing dry clothes, it wasn't particularly cold, she still hugged him in her arms as yesterday.
With such a posture, Xiao Qi saw Min Yu'an's face close at hand as soon as he opened his eyes.
After being exposed to the heavy rain, Min Yu'an loosened her bun, and then she didn't bother to take care of her hair. Her long black waterfall-like hair just hung down behind her like this. Maybe it was because she didn't sleep well, and she didn't sleep very comfortably. She was sleeping in a dream. Zhong also frowned slightly.
so pretty...
Wait, Xiao Qi paused, what am I thinking?
Xiao Qi raised his hand and rubbed his face to help himself wake up. Only after the memory came back, did she understand what happened.
I found the cave, took off my outer shirt, ate sweets, and then passed out, right?
She licked her lower lips and teeth, and there was still a slight sweetness.Why is the effect of that candy so long-lasting?
Pain came from his right arm, reaching his mind, Xiao Qi propped himself up and sat up, and saw the bandaged wound.
This is also what the little princess did?
For a moment, I couldn't tell what I felt in my heart. Since when did the little princess stop crying?
Before she could figure out why, Min Yu'an was woken up by her movements.
Min Yu'an was surprised and happy, his eyes were sleepy, but there was a light in his eyes that couldn't be concealed: "Are you awake?"
Xiao Qi nodded, not yet
Xiao Qi galloped his horse wildly, running towards the side of the mountain, until there was no more frightening tremors behind him for a long time, then he loosened the rein and let the horse stop.
The weight of two people was added to a horse, and it was hit on the buttocks, and the horse was also exhausted.
Xiao Qi heaved a sigh of relief, the energy he had been holding back all this time was gone, he felt the belated weakness, and the suppressed instincts of his body surged up.
Her limbs were clammy and restless, and she didn't know whether it was because she had been in the rain for too long or she had lost too much blood. She was trembling instinctively.
Min Yu'an didn't speak all the way, huddled in her arms without any movement, now stopped, still no response.
Xiao Qi was a little worried that the accident just now had frightened her, so he asked in a soft voice: "Princess, are you okay?"
Min Yu'an didn't say a word, but shrank into her arms again.
Xiao Qi wanted to laugh inexplicably, but she actually felt a little cute, she thought, she was really crazy.With such a serious matter, I still have the mood to laugh.
She shook her head hard, throwing out all the extra thoughts, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, we are safe."
"There is no danger. With me here, nothing will happen to you."
Min Yu'an finally made a movement, turned his head to look at her, there was blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, Xiao Qi's expression froze, and his smile disappeared, she asked: "But where did you get hurt?"
"No injury," Min Yu'an shook his head, "I didn't pay attention to the bite myself."
It's good that he wasn't injured, but the bloodstains are still very dazzling, Xiao Qi controlled his gaze not to look at the corner of Min Yu'an's mouth.
Added: "It's not too safe now. We have been in the rain for so long and bumped for a long time. We have to find a place to rest."
***
The horse swayed forward slowly.
When we arrived at a place with dense trees, the terrain here was complicated and the soil was compacted. Presumably, what happened just now should not happen.
Xiao Qi jumped off the horse, and passed his hand to Min Yu'an: "Okay, let's rest here for a while."
Min Yu'an held her hand, probably because he had been running around for too long, and his body could not use his strength. When he got off the horse, his legs and feet went limp and he threw himself into Xiao Qi's arms.
Both bodies were drenched by the rainstorm and blown by the cold wind, icy cold.As soon as he touched it, Xiao Qi was so cold that he shivered, and she gasped.
When the energy passed and he recovered, he wanted to tease her to ease the atmosphere.
"Are your legs weak?" It was a teasing voice, "Why can't you stand still?"
The previous roles seemed to be reversed at this moment. After being frightened, the passive party became Min Yu'an.
Min Yu'an was so angry that his teeth were itching, it was this time, and he was still in the mood to make a joke!
She wanted to justify a few words, and straightened up from Xiao Qi's arms, but she gave up the idea when her eyes touched her.
The back of the person in front of her is still straight, her face is pale and terrifying, and the corner of her mouth is smiling, she is good-looking and has her own strength, and the anger she just gave out disappeared without a trace.
Min Yu'an calmed down, remembered the business, and asked, "What was that just now?" The scene seemed to be falling apart, and there seemed to be an abyss behind him chasing people away, which made people panic.
Even now that she has fled to a safe place, she still can't forget about it, as if she is still in it.
"Could it be an earthquake?" She was still in shock, although she was relieved by Xiao Qi's interruption, she was still a little scared.
If there is an earthquake, there must be more than one wave, and there will be more in the future.
Xiao Qi shook his head: "No, there are no cracks on the ground, it should be that the heavy rain for several days made the soil soft, and the sudden heavy rain washed all the soil and trees from high places down."
"Don't be afraid, the trees here are lush and the soil is very firm. There will be no more such things. We are safe and fine."
Min Yu'an felt relieved, no longer worried, and said again: "Are you...does it hurt?"
The same words are asked, and the person who answers is also the same.
Xiao Qi was startled, and wanted to comfort the little princess, resisting the discomfort in his body: "It doesn't hurt."
"You're lying!" Min Yu'an was so angry that he was so anxious and anxious, but he didn't know what to do. This man still refused to tell the truth.The conditions are so bad, if the wound is not treated, it will be more serious.
"It's clear that your face is pale from the pain, your lips are bloodless, and your mouth is still stiff!"
Xiao Qi smiled helplessly, and he didn't speak harshly any more. The weakness in what he said was obvious: "The little princess saw it."
She still didn't want her to worry too much, as if nothing happened, she didn't care and said: "It really doesn't hurt. I have experienced this kind of injury a lot, and I am used to it. To me, it is nothing."
"I just have to trouble the little princess to pull out the arrow for me. This wound can't be delayed any longer." She was apologetic at this point.I didn't want the little princess to be exposed to such a bloody thing, but the situation was pressing.
Even if the bleeding is to be suppressed, it should not be tied for too long, otherwise the bound place will not get sufficient blood supply, and it will easily die. At that time, the whole arm will not be able to keep it. A one-armed man is not what she wants.
Xiao Qi turned his head and used his teeth to assist his left hand to tear off the cloth that bound his arm. His numb arm felt sore after a long time, but the blood stopped flowing. Thinking that the binding just now worked, then Well, if the blood bleeds again, she really can't hold it anymore.
She smiled and said, "Princess, don't be afraid. You can pull it off with a little force. It's not a big deal."
So what matters!
The injury is so serious!
Min Yu'an almost blurted out, but when he touched the man's warm eyes, he stopped, what's the use of arguing with her.
She was already in such a bad mood, and she was still arguing about what was right and wrong.
Min Yu'an pursed his lips and said hello.
He was about to cut through the fabric with his sword, but he was stunned: "But, the clothes are all wet, and there is no clean fabric."
After being drenched in rain and contaminated with unclean things, if such cloth strips come into contact with the wound, it will only aggravate the condition.
Xiao Qi was also stunned, and he didn't expect that he would forget this, his mind was really broken.
"Forget it, just insert it like this, it won't bleed anyway, just sit down and rest."
***
Xiao Qi took a long sword and planned to cut off a few branches, and turned them across to use as a bench.
Just after the heavy rain, the ground is full of puddles, so we can't let the little princess just sit on the ground, right?
Who knew that she was stopped by Min Yu'an as soon as she touched the sword: "I'm so hurt, what do you want to bother with?!" There was blame in her tone, but it was not difficult to hear the concern inside.
"I just want to cut some branches to make a stool."
"Let me go! I don't have long hands, you have to worry about everything?"
The princess who has always been pampered and has impeccable posture and etiquette is cutting down trees with her sword. This scene is really funny, Xiao Qi couldn't help but want to laugh, if Mother Wei were here, she would probably jump in a hurry.
But when she thought that she was doing this for her own sake, she smiled again.
She said: "Don't be afraid, little princess, when it's over, someone will come to us, just wait."
However, Min Yu'an caught the loophole in her words. He was anxious just now and didn't care about what she called her. Now that he calmed down, he realized something was wrong: "Who is the little princess?"
I regard you as a general, but you actually call me a little princess?They are all inferior!
Xiao Qi: "..." The injury broke his brain, and he subconsciously yelled out.
Losing blood makes you lose your mind.
silence.
Looking at her pale face, Min Yu'an didn't know whether it was sweat or rain that slid down her cheeks, her eyelashes were pressed down and trembled, she half-opened her eyes, looking very tired, but tried her best to comfort herself.
Although Xiao Qi tried his best to hide his weakness, his appearance still betrayed her.
Forget it, why bother with her.
As long as you're safe and sound, that's more important than anything else.
The sky gradually darkened, but there was no trace of anyone who came to look for them.There was no sound of footsteps, only the chirping of birds and the sound of the wind could be heard in this huge forest, and some raindrops were blown down by the wind.
Xiao Qi waited a little bit, and became a little anxious.
The temperature in her body was losing bit by bit, her eyes turned black, and she couldn't sit still, she really wanted to just lie on her back and close her eyes and not care about anything.
As soon as this thought came to her, she was so startled that she immediately woke up.
Can't wait any longer.
How cold is the night in late autumn?
The clothes are soaked, and there is no dry firewood to light the fire, and the iron body can't stand it.
Not to mention that she was injured at the moment, and the little princess was so delicate, if she just fainted like this, what would the little princess do?
"Princess," Xiao Qi broke the silence, his voice was hoarse and subtle, revealing a reassuring force, "I can't wait anymore, I'll take you to find a place to rest for a night before we talk about it."
Don't pin all your hopes on others, this is the reason she sacrificed her life for.
She thought that the imperial guards would come to find them, so she waited here, but if it was dark, she would not be able to wait.
In the deep mountains and old forests, the most indispensable thing is wild beasts. She cannot protect herself at this moment, let alone protect Min Yu'an.
That's right, a princess without real power, how can it be worth these people's lives?
Min Yu'an understood what she said, and asked her: "Where can I find these people in the barren mountains?" She looked up and saw no one, she wondered if she could wait for the people who came to find them, Xiao Qi's injury... After all, It's still my own fault.
If she hadn't thought about the love of her children and wanted to be alone with the general, if she hadn't sent Ke Yi Ke Wu away, if she hadn't willfully wanted a wild goose...
If it is not the general, he will not be injured and will not be subject to this danger.
Xiao Qi didn't know what was going on in her mind, he just said: "There is always a cave or something, it doesn't matter if it can shelter from the wind and rain, if you look for it, you will find it."
***
This accident was unexpected. Manpower is not worth mentioning in the face of natural disasters. No matter how high or low the status is, the ability to survive depends on luck.
Not far from the foot of the mountain.
The emperor was wrapped in a blanket and sat in the newly erected tent, his face was worried, and his brows were frowning.
There were many guards around him, but he was frightened and drenched in the rain, but was not injured, and was quickly retreated from the mountain by protection.
Meng He announced at the door, and his voice was not as drawn out as in the past: "Your Majesty, Commander Qi is asking to see you."
"Announce him to come in." The emperor's words revealed a threatening attitude, he was so angry that he had already had a wave, and he threw all those who supervised the affairs of Qintian into the prison and planned to behead him.
He didn't return to the palace for a long time, just waiting for the imperial guards to find traces of Min Yu'an.
The prince is already safe with him, but Min Yu'an, when he thinks that something will happen to his well-behaved queen-like daughter, he feels very heartbroken.
"Where's Ann?" the emperor asked.
Meng He stretched his neck at the door, his ears pricked up, Her Royal Highness, please don't worry.
The commander of the imperial army trembling, gritted his teeth and said: "Go back to the emperor, I have searched below, but there is no shadow of the princess. The road collapsed badly, and the road was blocked by mountains and rocks, so I couldn't find the way. The princess, I'm afraid it's..."
Jiao Didi's daughter's family is facing a dangerous situation, and the chance of surviving is very slim.
The emperor understood what he had said, and threw the ginger soup he was holding on to his head: "What do I raise you to eat! Waste!"
He stood up suddenly, walked back and forth like a trapped animal, managed to calm down, and said: "Immediately, call all the forbidden troops, move the rocks away for me, and open the way if there is no way!"
"Yes, I will do it immediately." Commander Qi boldly remonstrated against his anger, "Your Majesty, this place is not safe yet, please move back to the palace."
The emperor laughed back in anger: "You want me to flee back alone, regardless of An'er?"
Commander Qi almost threw himself to the ground: "I dare not, I am terrified."
"Get off! You don't have to come back if you can't find An'er!"
"Yes."
Commander Qi bowed and retreated, and ordered his subordinates to gather more people, intending to open the way overnight.
Qi Wenyu was on the side, watching him give orders, looked at his face, and said anxiously: "Father..."
Father Qi waved his hand and sighed: "I don't know where the princess has gone, why can't I find anyone."
Qi Wenyu's movements froze. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated and shut up.
If he speaks out at this time, he will not have any good fruit to eat.
If the princess is back, I want to question his crime; if the princess can’t be found, I want to ask him about his crime.
If people don't kill heaven and earth for themselves, their own lives are more important.
***
Before the autumn hunt begins.
With a father who is the commander of the Imperial Army, Qi Wenyu must of course accompany such a big event as Autumn Hunting.He dressed up well today, he was in high spirits, eager to try, and wanted to become famous in this autumn hunt.
Qi Wenyu looked at the more beautiful princess from a distance, and felt like thousands of ants crawling in his heart, an unresolved itch.
Princess, it should belong to him.
He didn't know how many girls in the imperial city were the dream lovers, but the woman he was thinking of all the time became someone else's wife!
Xiao Qi!
If it wasn't for this Xiao Qi, the person next to the princess should be me!
He gritted his teeth and thought bitterly, the hatred of taking his wife is irreconcilable, I will make you pay the price!How can a trash from a humble background be worthy of a princess with golden branches and jade leaves?
With a sullen expression on his face, he squeezed the whip tightly in his hand.
Qiu Lie, let this son-in-law make a fool of himself.
Qi Wenyu specially ordered people to bring arrows without the logo of the Forbidden Army, and secretly followed Xiao Qi and Min Yu'an, so that even if they were shot, no one would know that he did it.
He didn't want to kill anyone.
He just wanted to teach him a lesson, and he just wanted to see how embarrassed this son-in-law was.
When shooting arrows, he specially instructed his subordinates to avoid the princess and only aim at Xiao Qi.
Didn't it mean that Yu Wanjun took the head of the enemy's leader from it, and the mere rain of arrows should not be able to do anything to him, right?
Qi Wenyu thought distortedly, so he did so.
I didn't even think about killing people.
Who would have expected that the rocks would slip like this?This is life.
He took a few followers with him, he ran away after shooting the arrow successfully, who knew that Xiao Qi was so powerful, he could shoot multiple arrows with one shot, and seriously injured several of his brothers with only one draw of the bow.
The strength was still unabated, the arrow pierced through the flesh, screaming in pain.
Only he, Qi Wenyu, was lucky. He tripped over a stone and sprained his foot. The arrow brushed the side of his face and passed without any injuries.
then.
then……
When they fled, they were afraid that Xiao Qi would catch up, they panicked and got separated.
It was also Qi Wenyu's luck that the direction of escape happened to allow him to escape the disaster, but after he went down the mountain, he didn't see any trace of his follower, so he probably suffered a disaster.
He thought about whether to go to the princess, but, but he also wanted to live.What if the rock slides down again?What if I'm not so lucky next time?
This is a natural disaster, who can guarantee that he will survive?
Qi Wenyu bowed his head, he hesitated, Qi's father had already taken people out of the camp, probably to dig a road.
He hid his unpredictable expression, and the scratch left by the arrow on his cheek was painful.
You can only blame you for going the wrong way, and it has nothing to do with me.As for the princess, since you didn't choose me to be your son-in-law, you will have to bear the consequences yourself, it's fate.
It's just a woman, as long as he lives, what kind of woman can't he get?
***
When it's cold, it gets dark early, and it's rainy again, so the sky dims faster.
Xiao Qi led the horse, and Min Yu'an pulled up the hem of her clothes, and they went to find a place to live together.
With the drizzle hitting his face, Min Yu'an was numb from the cold, and his teeth chattered uncontrollably.
But this person next to me...
Min Yu'an's eyes were tightly glued to Xiao Qi's body, the wound was slightly coagulated just now, his right arm no longer oozes blood, after being washed by the heavy rain, the water took away the blood, and the indigo cloth showed its original color, slightly exposed The wound was slightly white, and the arrow shook violently as she moved.
Like a normal person, Xiao Qi continued to search for the cave, let go of the rein from time to time, used his left hand to push aside the branches and leaves that were hidden in front of his eyes, if he was looking for nothing, he took the rein and continued to search.
This action has been repeated many times, and she never tires of it.
Min Yu'an bit his lip desperately. There was pain from the place where he was bitten just now, but a small cut hurts like this. How much pain should it be for you?
It's all because I'm useless, and everything drags you down.
They only go to places with dense trees, where there are not enough caves dug by wild animals or naturally formed.
Sure enough, it was found on a mountain wall.
The cave is not big, it can accommodate two people and a horse, and it is only enough to keep out the wind and rain.
**
In the son-in-law's mansion, Rong Chu was going crazy.
Xiao Qi greeted her before going out, saying that he was only participating in the autumn hunting, and there were imperial guards guarding him, so what danger could there be?
Rong Chu didn't take it seriously, she and Lin Hanbai went shopping, halfway through the shopping, it suddenly rained heavily.
Thunder and lightning.
The lightning seemed to split the sky.
In what seemed like an instant, the drizzle turned into a downpour, drenching people from head to toe.
As soon as it rained, she was a little worried, but thinking of the royal ostentation, she must have made sufficient preparations.
The street is closer to the son-in-law's mansion, so Rong Chu took Lin Hanbai back to the mansion to change the laundry, and she was worried about rushing back due to the heavy rain.
But she waited and waited, but there was no news from Xiao Qi.
Anyway, it's raining heavily, so it's time to return, right?
Rong Chu hated herself for being powerless. If anything happened, she could only wait silently, unable to help.
Lin Hanbai came in with a bowl and put it in front of Rong Chu. There was no change of clothes, and the size of Rong Chu's clothes she was wearing actually fit her right.
Lin Hanbo comforted: "Don't worry, she will be fine."
Rong Chu nodded absently.
Butler Li ran in in a panic: "My lord, there are people coming from the palace."
Rong Chu immediately stood up to greet him.
The emperor was angry and worried that it was too late, how could he think of someone sending a message to the brother-in-law's brother.The little eunuch who delivered the order was sent by Meng He, and he couldn't bear to deliver such news for the first time: "The princess and her son-in-law are lost in the mountains, and they have not been found yet."
Rong Chu sent the messenger away like a ghost, fell down and sat down, covered his face with his hands, lost his mind.
Lin Hanbai put his hands on her body and felt a slight shock in his body under his palms. After a while, there was a soft cry, full of despair.
"I should know, this capital has always been full of crises, it would be nice to go back sooner."
"There must be nothing wrong..."
***
The worries of outsiders could not be conveyed no matter how, Min Yu'an and Xiao Qi didn't know the worries of the family members, now, survival is the most important thing.
It seemed that in an instant, they settled down in the cave, and it was dark.
The black hole is like a huge mouth of an abyss, as if it will swallow people in the next moment.
There is no light in the small cave, and there are only a few dead branches in the cave. It is not enough to light a fire, so we can only endure the darkness.
In such a wilderness, without light, people seem to have lost their backbone, hope is slim, and they simply have people around them to accompany them.
Ordinary horses sleep standing up, but this horse is exhausted and tired, so it sleeps soundly lying on the entrance of the cave.
Horses are carefree, but people are not.
Min Yu'an took off his wet clothes and shoes, leaving only a layer of obscene clothes on his body.
Xiao Qi was far away from her, sitting on the horse seat, Xiao Qi kept in mind the words "see no evil", even in the dark, he didn't dare to look up at her.
What kind of "see no evil" exists between two women?
Of course, only when you have moved your mind on her.
It's a pity that Xiao Qi, who is not so clear-headed, will not think about why she hides like this, but according to her way of thinking, even if she is sober, she probably won't be able to remember this.
Min Yu'an was helpless, what time was it, and he was still talking about these clichés.
She used a coaxing tone: "It's so cold, why don't you take off your wet clothes first? What if you get a cold from wearing them?" The wound was not serious, but it bled so much, and it rained again. If you wear the clothes you wear on your body, nothing will happen to you!
Xiao Qi thought for a while, then nodded slowly, her wound had already started to heat up, her eyes turned black, and she felt dizzy like a shadow.
The arrow was in the way, and in order to avoid touching the wound, she neatly cut open her clothes with the sword.
So he took off his coat, but he refused to take off the inside.
She still remembered that she had a cotton cloth tied inside her chest and was stuffed with an iron plate for support.
There is only one thought in the brain that is no longer awake - no matter what, the little princess can't find out her identity.
So be it.
Seeing that she didn't want to take it off, Min Yu'an didn't force her to take it off. She would take it off after she fell asleep at night.Revealing her identity now and scaring her would probably be even worse for her health.
Min Yu'an moved over and leaned on the horse with her.
Most of the wind blowing in from the cave was blocked by the horse. The horse's fur dried out quickly, and bursts of warmth radiated out, allowing the two cold people to have a place to rely on.
Just when Min Yu An took off his coat, he took out a purse from his bosom and held it in his hand, it was torn from Xiao Qi's body the day she tied Xiao Qi into the palace.
She placed it next to her body, fearing that the body temperature would melt the sugar, so she specially wrapped several layers of oiled paper, so the sugar was intact under the heavy rain.
Sugar is a good thing, it can only be regarded as a pastime on weekdays, but it is a life-saving thing at this moment.
She tore open the purse, peeled off the oiled paper layer by layer, and smiled softly: "Fortunately, I have been carrying it with me, and I have added a lot of sugar to it, so it will come in handy now."
Before Xiao Qi could react, he went inside in a daze.
Min Yu'an picked up a candy and handed it to Xiao Qi's lips: "Eat the candy."
Xiao Qi obeyed subconsciously, opened his mouth, the hard stuff was stuffed into his mouth, and then the sweetness she was familiar with spread out between his lips and teeth, and the bland lips and teeth immediately felt excited.
Even the reaction with blood loss slowed down a lot, she said, "You can eat too."
Min Yu'an listened to her and threw a candy backhand into his mouth, enjoying the rare sweetness after the disaster.
Min Yu'an crossed his arms, and moved towards Xiao Qi's side, and stopped when he touched her left shoulder.
The two leaned close, and Min Yu'an asked her, "My son-in-law, tell me, when will they find us?"
Xiao Qi was trying his best to resist the layer upon layer of dizziness in her mind, she struggled to speak: "I will find it, I will."
No answer.
Min Yu'an raised his head, wanting to ask questions, for peace of mind.
But he saw this person fell straight down and smashed into his arms, and the bones hurt from the collision.
She couldn't take it anymore.
He was injured and lost blood, and was exposed to rain and cold wind. No matter how hard he was, he couldn't bear it anymore.
Finally found a shelter, relaxed her mind, Xiao Qi couldn't hold on anymore, the instinctive reaction of her body that had been forcibly suppressed surged up, and she passed out.
Min Yu'an patted her twice, but there was no response, so she hugged the person in her arms tightly, clasped her hands tightly, and the cold temperature passed through the wet and cold clothes, and she suddenly realized that this person's body was so thin.
It is clear that it looks fine on weekdays, but I didn't pay attention to it.
She was very annoyed, but now was not the time to think about it.
Min Yu'an gently put Xiao Qi down, let her lean against the horse, then got up and went outside over the hole, broke off a few branches of trees, took them back to the hole and inserted them into the ground, acting as a temporary drying rack, where there is a little cool wind blowing Yes, just enough to dry clothes.
Wearing wet clothes on the body is only harmful but not beneficial.So she took it off for her as a matter of course, and hung them all on a temporary clothes hanger.
After everything was done, Min Yu'an returned to the original place, holding the sleeping man tightly in his arms.
With his chin resting on top of her head and feeling her heartbeat in his chest, Min Yu'an murmured, it will be fine, everything will be fine.
***
The two leaned against each other, instinctively looking for a source of heat.
Min Yu'an was not a little stimulated today, and his body was a little bit overwhelmed, so he fell asleep with exhaustion.
She was woken up by the heat in her arms, which was frighteningly high.
The person who was still as cold as iron before going to bed did not know when his body temperature rose to the point of scalding, like a huge furnace emitting heat.
His face was abnormally red, his lips were chapped and peeled, and they were tightly pressed together. In such a cold day, there was still sweat coming out of his cheeks.
Xiao Qi curled up in her arms, trembling slightly, curled up into a ball, the mask had already slipped to the ground, and the half of his face with the scar was exposed, looking extraordinarily fragile.
Sure enough, she still had a high fever.
This was also expected. Min Yu'an had already prepared himself mentally. Although he couldn't help but sigh, he still calmly acted according to the plan that had been thought through thousands of times in his heart.
It was useless to worry, she had to deal with everything methodically.
The first thing to deal with is the wound.
The place where the shot was shot was no longer the whitish look it had seen before. Because it was not treated effectively and in a timely manner, and the torrential rain and cold wind made it worse, the wound naturally swelled up and was still red.
There was a faint light coming from outside, and Min Yu'an touched the clothes that were hanging before going to bed, and they were still wet.
She sighed helplessly, and touched one by one. Fortunately, the strips of cotton cloth used to wrap her chest were dry due to its lightness and breathability.
After weighing it slightly, she made a decision.
The long strip of cloth was cut by the tip of the sword, and it was divided into two, one half was used to bandage the wound, and the other half was wrapped by Xiao Qi when someone came to find them, and used as a cover.
The half used for bandaging was divided into a small piece and carefully folded for later use.
Min Yu'an's hand caressed Xiao Qi's face lightly, and he couldn't bear her to suffer any more, but if he didn't deal with it in time, whether his life would be saved would be a problem.
She took a slightly cleaner shirt, carefully folded it into a square size, squeezed Xiao Qi's jaw open with one hand, and stuffed it in.Even though he was still in a coma, he would still feel pain. Under the severe pain, he was worried that Xiao Qi would bite him, so a piece of fabric was the best choice.
After preparing, she moved her palms, took a deep breath, and then pulled out the arrow as quickly as possible.
Xiao Qi snorted, his brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes were still closed, but painful sobs overflowed from his throat.The chapped lips were torn apart from the force, and the cloth used for the bite was stained red.
Min Yu'an resolutely didn't look at her, and the movements of his hands quickened.
There was no fire, no spirits, no medicine, no boiling hot water, this kind of bandaging was wrong, if a doctor would point at her nose and scold her here, but she had to keep doing it.
Layers of small cloth strips were placed on the wound, and the white cloth was wrapped round and round around her arm. She tied a knot to make sure that it was tight enough not to tighten it too hard, so she relaxed.
She stared at the wrapped wound, and after a while, there was blood oozing out, but it didn't flow too much, and the red circle didn't seem to continue to expand.
Good luck.
Min Yu'an finally had the mind to divert his attention to other places, and when he moved his gaze up, he saw the blood on Xiao Qi's lips.
!!!
She used her hands to separate Xiao Qi's clenched lips and teeth, and looked inside, the light pink tongue was retracted deep, and there was no wound.Nothing on the tongue, that's blood on the lips.
She regretted it so much that she went to treat the wound, why did she forget about it?
The lips are dry and cracked, won't they crack if you apply more force?How confused!
Min Yu'an ran out in a hurry. After the rainstorm, there were still drops of water on the branches. She took off a large leaf, collected the rainwater, and carried it carefully into the cave.
The water bowl made simply from leaves was put aside, and Min Yu'an gently wiped the blood on her lips with a cloth strip, then helped her lean against him, and carefully picked up the water bowl.
Clear water was hard-won, and she cherished it very much.
But the drowsy and unconscious person does not cherish it very much. The water is poured from the bowl made of leaves, and it only stays between the lips for a moment before going down.
How do you not know how to swallow? !
Min Yu'an was extremely anxious. People with high fever would lose water in their bodies quickly due to the rise in body temperature, and it would be even worse if they didn't replenish water in time, but how could this person be so disobedient when he fell asleep!
Min Yu'an pinched Xiao Qi's lips, poured some water into it, and then closed his lips for her.
It didn't work, the water still overflowed from the corners of the lips.
She was restless, and couldn't think of a better way for a while, so she simply poured herself a mouthful of water, then leaned over and fell on it.
***
Min Yu'an had no experience of living in the deep mountains.
In her previous life, even in the most desolate second half of her life, she only sold her jewelry for money and exchanged fields for self-sufficiency.It's not bad to be able to recognize common crops.
Now Xiao Qi is still in a coma, Min Yu'an is worried about leaving her alone, and there is no edible food nearby, so Min Yu'an can only feed her some water every once in a while.
There is still a lot of sugar left in the purse, and it is fed every other time. Sugar is a rare tonic for people who are sick now.
The horse woke up early, and Min Yu'an tied it to a nearby tree to let it graze by itself.
It got hit on the butt yesterday, but it was nothing serious, presumably Xiao Qi restrained his strength and didn't hurt anything serious.
If there were people who couldn't wait for the rescue, Min Yu'an thought, at least he could ride down the mountain and find a way by himself.
The premise is that Xiao Qi is fine.
Min Yu'an has never studied medicine, she only knows that unclean wounds will rot if they are closed for a long time.But she didn't dare not to bandage the wound, so she could only loosen the wound every once in a while to breathe.
But no matter how hard she tried, the comatose person never woke up.
Only the slightly lower body temperature told her that Xiao Qi might be getting better.
The horse was tied outside the cave, and the cave entrance was completely open. Min Yu'an shielded her from the wind with his back turned to the cave entrance, cut a piece of clothing into cloth strips with a sword, wet it with water and applied it on Xiao Qi's forehead, and the rest The cloth strips took turns to wipe her face and body with water.
In this way, I repeatedly got up to fetch water, twisted the cloth, applied the forehead, and wiped the body, and repeated it many times in a day.
When the light from outside gradually dissipated and the cave turned dark, Xiao Qi's body temperature finally returned to normal and his complexion turned better.
Min Yu'an, who was always paying attention to her situation, finally felt relieved. It should be nothing serious, right?
The rain-soaked clothes hung on a makeshift drying rack for a day and a night, but they finally dried up.Min Yu'an got a headache after dressing Xiao Qi one by one, how should he explain the missing piece of chest cloth?
Shall we expose her?
But Xiao Qi's situation is better now, it's not good to be frightened, right?
After thinking about it, she just closed her eyes like this, there will always be a way, and I will talk about it when the time comes.
***
When Xiao Qi woke up again, it was already the third day since they arrived in the cave.
She hadn't eaten much for two days, was injured and lost blood, and had a high fever, so she struggled to open her eyes.
Xiwei's morning light came in from the entrance of the cave, and she blinked hard—little princess?
Now that the horse has recovered, it naturally sleeps standing up, and it is inconvenient for them to rely on it to keep warm—couldn't they rely on the horse's hoof?If that horse kicks a leg, it can kick a person into internal injuries.
Min Yu'an fell asleep leaning against the cave wall, wearing dry clothes, it wasn't particularly cold, she still hugged him in her arms as yesterday.
With such a posture, Xiao Qi saw Min Yu'an's face close at hand as soon as he opened his eyes.
After being exposed to the heavy rain, Min Yu'an loosened her bun, and then she didn't bother to take care of her hair. Her long black waterfall-like hair just hung down behind her like this. Maybe it was because she didn't sleep well, and she didn't sleep very comfortably. She was sleeping in a dream. Zhong also frowned slightly.
so pretty...
Wait, Xiao Qi paused, what am I thinking?
Xiao Qi raised his hand and rubbed his face to help himself wake up. Only after the memory came back, did she understand what happened.
I found the cave, took off my outer shirt, ate sweets, and then passed out, right?
She licked her lower lips and teeth, and there was still a slight sweetness.Why is the effect of that candy so long-lasting?
Pain came from his right arm, reaching his mind, Xiao Qi propped himself up and sat up, and saw the bandaged wound.
This is also what the little princess did?
For a moment, I couldn't tell what I felt in my heart. Since when did the little princess stop crying?
Before she could figure out why, Min Yu'an was woken up by her movements.
Min Yu'an was surprised and happy, his eyes were sleepy, but there was a light in his eyes that couldn't be concealed: "Are you awake?"
Xiao Qi nodded, not yet
