Nan Xiao held Han Yuan's hand.

Both of their hands were cold, but when they held each other, they seemed to be much warmer.

Nan Xiao leaned close to Han Yuan's neck and kissed Han Yuan's rolling Adam's apple.

Their gazes crossed for a moment in the air, and at that moment Nan Xiao felt as if he had fallen into a gentle and boundless sea.

He stood up: "I'll carry you on my back, let's go to the abandoned village... Do you remember the location of the village?"

It is late at night, although it is almost dawn, but the temperature is too low.

Han Yuan was seriously injured and bled so much, if his body temperature dropped too fast, even if the Dragon Clan was not afraid of the cold, his body would not be able to hold on.

And there may be beasts here, looking for the smell of blood.

They only have one firearm in their hands, and they are running out of energy storage, which cannot guarantee safety.

"Remember." Han Yuan curled his lips reassuringly toward him, "Go southeast."

Nan Xiao supported Han Yuan to stand up. He looked very thin, but his muscles were thin and smooth. With his tall figure, his weight was actually not light.

"Your Highness can just help me walk...the village is not very far away."

Nan Xiao didn't make a sound, and tried to walk two steps behind his back, but found that his physical strength couldn't keep up at all, so he had no choice but to give up.

"...then walk slowly, don't touch the wound."

"Ah."

"After we go back this time, I want to train with the soldiers."

His physical fitness is too poor. If he was the one who was injured this time, Han Yuan must have picked him up and found the village a long time ago.

After the words fell, he felt Han Yuan's hand on his shoulder tightened, and the other party's voice was very gentle, as if he was laughing.

"Okay, I'll accompany you."

After walking for about half an hour, Nan Xiao could already see a corner of the village in the distance.

But he noticed that the wound on Han Yuan's abdomen was oozing blood again, and the bandage that had just been wrapped was stained with some dazzling scarlet.

Their pace has been slowed down as much as possible, but it is useless, the mountain road is difficult, as long as they continue to walk, it will affect the wound.

Moreover, the bottle of medicine powder has been used up just now, if the wound bursts again, what will he use to stop Han Yuan from bleeding?

Nan Xiao pursed his lips, and his lips were pale: "It's almost here... After you arrive, you can rest in the house, and I will go nearby to see if there are any herbs that can be used."

The fringe planet has a harsh climate and is barren and desolate. Even in such valleys and snowy forests, medicinal herbs are rarely seen.

"No, there are beasts...it's too dangerous."

Nan Xiao: "I have a gun."

He didn't want to argue with Han Yuan on this issue and consume the other party's energy, so he continued hastily.

"You can't stop me, and you can't stop now—I haven't settled with you yet for the matter of forming a bond with me on your own initiative."

There are about dozens of houses in the abandoned village. There is little precipitation here, and the wooden pillars have not been eroded too much, but there are many cobwebs on the door frames and window edges, and there is a thick layer of dust on the floor.

Nan Xiao randomly opened a door, took off his coat, put it on the bed, and helped Han Yuan to sit down.

With the help of the moonlight coming in through the window, he checked the wound on the opponent's abdomen.

Sure enough, there was some blood oozing again, but fortunately, there was not much bleeding. If he could find a herbal medicine to stop bleeding and reduce inflammation, he might be able to wait until the rescue team came.

"You wait for me here, I won't leave too far, I will come back as soon as I find the herbs...Han Yuan?"

Nan Xiao touched the opponent's fingertips, which were as cold as pig iron.

He froze for a moment, then raised his eyes abruptly to see that the other party's long and narrow golden eyes were already a little distracted, and the face that was carved like a knife and axe seemed to have no waves, but the corners of the eyes and brows were suppressed with forbearance of pain.

His heart sank suddenly.

"Han Yuan? You...you promise me, don't fall asleep before I come back, okay?"

He could see that Han Yuan's gaze was trying to focus on his face.

He never thought that such a cold and sharp face like a military blade would have a fragile expression like a sick child.

But it was only for a moment, making him suspect that it was his hallucination of excessive tension, Han Yuan's expression still returned to his usual invincible composure.

He nodded slightly as a response.

Nan Xiao stood up, picked up the firearm that was on the edge of the bed, and just turned around, he saw a black shadow flash past the window, his figure was about the size of a thin adult.

Could it be that the interstellar pirates have also come here?

He immediately pulled the trigger of the gun, his nerves tensed to the extreme.

"Who?!"

The only answer to him was the whistling wind outside the house.

Nan Xiao's eyelashes trembled slightly, he raised the gun in his hand, and slowly moved towards the outside of the house.

Finally, he stopped by the door frame and quietly pushed the door open a little.

It was pitch black outside, broken cobwebs hung with frost, reflecting the moonlight and swaying in the wind.

Nan Xiao waited for a few moments, but he didn't see any figure, but he absolutely couldn't have misread the one just now.

The young man hesitated for a moment, pushed open the door, turned sideways out of the room suddenly, and then closed the door behind his back.

The surroundings are still silent, and there is no place to hide in the yard at all, except for a dry well in the middle.

He cautiously approached the well, and when he got closer, he saw that there seemed to be a pair of hands firmly grasping the rope of the wooden bucket that was used to draw water from the well.

"Don't...don't shoot...I'm an elf who lives here, I don't mean anything malicious!"

Nan Xiao paused, and saw a pair of elf-specific pointed ears protruding from the well.

Nan Xiao didn't put away the gun, but said: "Okay, you come out first."

An elf with a delicate appearance that was almost indistinguishable from male and female crawled out of the well along the lanyard, looking at him with fear and curiosity in his eyes.

"You, are you human?"

In addition to a pair of pointed and long ears, the elves have mostly green pupils, and they like to decorate their clothes with dried flowers.

The person in front of him is indeed an elf.

Nan Xiao relaxed a little: "Yes."

Before Han Yuan told him that the village here had been abandoned, and the elves living here had been rumored to have moved away long ago, and the village did not look like it was inhabited.

Then why did this elf suddenly appear here?

"You were also hunted down by interstellar pirates, and you fled here, right?"

The elf glanced at his clothes, and the fear in his eyes dissipated a little.

"There are a lot of blood stains on your clothes... I dried some herbs, which can stop bleeding and reduce inflammation. Do you need it?"

Nan Xiao followed the elves to take some dried herbs and pounded them into medicinal paste.

During the conversation, he learned that the elf's name is Baiqi, and he has lived here with his grandfather for more than ten years.

"Didn't the elves here move away a long time ago? Why didn't you and your grandfather leave together?"

"They... they didn't move away." Baiqi's face turned pale, "I heard from my grandfather that they were massacred by interstellar pirates."

"At that time, the troops of the Interstellar Empire had not yet stationed in Beicheng, and interstellar pirates often came here to harass them."

"My grandfather managed to escape... When he came back, everyone in the village was dead. I was adopted by him from outside."

"Grandpa said that after the Son of the Dragon Clan led the army to station in Beicheng, the marginal planets became much calmer...Look at your clothes, you are also a soldier of the empire, right?"
