Chapter 76 - Article 76"Go back and report to the lord, this mission is finally done!"
With a "Hua la" sound, Wei Yuanwei suddenly emerged from the ice-cold spring, and violently coughed as she breathed in and out. Water flowed down from her head, making Wei Yuanwei unable to open her eyes.
"Your Highness..." Wei Yuanwei shouted as she slid in the water.
"This King is here!" The sound of water splashing could suddenly be heard. It was a weak but still clear voice.
Wei Yuanwei immediately swam over and grabbed onto Yun Xie"s almost collapsed body. The wound permeated into the water and almost dyed the water around Yun Xie red.
"Remember, do not lift this king"s mask at any time or This King will kill you!" Although Yun Xie"s words were indifferent and his tone was filled with weakness, the breathtaking aura that he emitted from the depths of his bone marrow did not decrease at all.
After Yun Xie finished this sentence, he completely fainted!
Wei Yuanwei had to use a lot of strength before she managed to drag Yun Xie onto the sh.o.r.e. Seeing Yun Xie"s shocking wound, Wei Yuanwei"s heart clenched tightly.
At that time, Yun Xie could totally abandon her and leave by himself!
But when Yun Xie heard that the group of a.s.sa.s.sins wanted to kill her, not only did they not care about his safety, they even wanted to save her!
Wei Yuanwei really didn"t know what Yun Xie was thinking. Didn"t he treat her like a pet?
Why did he risk his life to protect her?
If he knew that she hadn"t been robbed, but had run away, would he still save her like he had just seen?
Wei Yuanwei spent a great deal of effort to drag the unconscious Yun Xie onto the sh.o.r.e. Her snow-white clothes were long since dyed red with blood, and mottled bloodstains were like the stamens of a flower.
Wei Yuanwei forcefully ripped open the cloth covering Yun Xie"s wound, and realized that the wound had long ago been soaked in water until his hair had turned white. The terrifying wound gushed out, revealing the flesh inside, the originally bright red blood had turned black and purple!
The thing that Wei Yuanwei was most worried about had still happened, the swords of the a.s.sa.s.sins were all smeared with poison.
Right now, there was no one around and Wei Yuanwei didn"t have any tools or medicines by her side.
Wei Yuanwei could only clean up Yun Xie"s wound and bandage it later on.
"Your highness, your highness …" Seeing that the sky was about to turn dark and Yun Xie"s body was extremely cold, Wei Yuanwei could only rub away the warmth in his body while trying to wake the unconscious Yun Xie up.
Wei Yuanwei"s expression was extremely anxious, if this continued, Yun Xie would very likely not wake up.
Wei Yuanwei tried to drag Yun Xie"s body a few times, but Yun Xie"s body was extremely heavy and he was also afraid that the wounds would worsen.
Wei Yuanwei could only drag Yun Xie to a rather dry place first. When they were about to search everywhere for the fire seed, they saw two men carrying fire.
Wei Yuanwei did not care too much and directly rushed forward.
They were both villagers from a nearby village. Just as they came down from the mountains to chop firewood, a woman who was completely drenched suddenly rushed in front of them. They were naturally shocked, but after hearing Wei Yuanwei"s basic situation, they had a face full of doubt.
"Miss, this village is at least six hours away from the nearest town. It would take more than two hours even for a donkey cart to get there. The sky is about to turn dark, so it"s definitely not safe to travel by night!" A middle-aged man said as he placed a large bundle of firewood on the ground and wiped away the tears on his forehead.
"Then where is your village? Is there a doctor in the village? " Although Wei Yuanwei knew that Yun Xie"s injuries could not be delayed any longer, she still maintained a calm expression.
"It"s right in front. They"ll be here very soon. Doctors do have them, and they usually treat those with a cold or a fever or something!" The middle-aged man pointed to the only mountain road ahead.
Wei Yuanwei took out some silver from her bosom and placed it in the hands of the two middle aged men: "I"ll buy all of your firewood. I"ll trouble you to help my friends carry them back to your village, and find a place for us to spend the night here!"
Wei Yuanwei"s money was earned from writing in a book. Although it was not much, but to these villagers, it was more than enough.
As the two middle-aged men looked at the silver pieces, they knew that even if they chopped wood for a year to sell, they still might not be able to sell that much.
Immediately, the two villagers carried Yun Xie back to the village according to Wei Yuanwei"s instructions.
This village was similar to the previous Niu Gou village. Basically, the people in the village would farm and cut down firewood for a living, except during the New Year holidays, when they needed to buy some necessities, the people in the village would get up and go to the town three hours early.
There were only three donkeys in the village, and all of the village"s goods and food were transported by these three donkeys.
The two villagers were both blood-related brothers. Although they each formed a family with a wife and children, they did not split up and always lived under the same roof.
In this village, it was basically the same for many farmers.
Eat together, live together!
Brother Zhang Feng cleaned up a room for Wei Yuanwei and Yun Xie to stay in.
Seeing that the village was sealed off, Wei Yuanwei knew that the doctors here were useless.
Then he could only do it himself.
Needless to say, some of the drugs here are definitely not available.
Wei Yuanwei could only do it herself, to first disinfect Yun Xie"s wound.
Zhang Ergou and Zhang Ergou loved to drink wine, so they brewed some rice wine at home.
When they took a look at it, Wei Yuanwei immediately frowned: "Is there nothing else? As long as you give it to me, I will pay you all! "
The two of them looked at each other for a while, then Zhang Da took out the wine he bought in the town, which he planned to keep for New Year"s Eve.
Seeing Wei Yuanwei take the wine bottle, sniffing it and pouring the wine into her wounds, Zhang Da and Zhang Er felt that it was a complete waste of heaven"s resources.
Wei Yuanwei then used the wine to wash the blade, and roasted it over the fire.
Then, he started to clean up the poison on Yun Xie"s wound. This poison was really strong, it had actually seeped into his flesh after such a long time, dyeing the red flesh completely black.
Fortunately, Wei Yuanwei had tied up Yun Xie"s arm with a belt, preventing the poison blood from flowing through his body.
Wei Yuanwei first squeezed out the blood, and then used a knife to remove the corroded meat.
During the entire process, Yun Xie did not make the slightest movement. There were several times when Wei Yuanwei stopped what she was doing to make sure that Yun Xie was not breathing.
However, everything was fine. Although Yun Xie"s breathing was weak, it was still there.
After who knows how long, Wei Yuanwei finally cleared all of the poison from Yun Xie"s body, and then checked to see if there were any other injuries on his body.
