Liu Zhimo and the old man dragged the man into the cave. Once they were on the ground, the old man made Liu Zhimo find the Herba Hemostadiae and made it into juice, before he applied it onto the man"s wounds."Alright …" Liu Zhimo replied and quickly went to find the Herba Hemostadiae. He was afraid that if he did not hurry up, the man"s blood would flow.
I wonder what happened to this man that he was injured to this extent?
Did he run into those Southern Swallow King soldiers?
Liu Zhimo frowned as he thought, at the same time, he swiftly prodded the Herba Hemostadiae.
Li Qingling, who had originally been sleeping soundly immediately woke up when she smelled the smell of blood.
The moment she sat up, she saw the old man busying himself around a man covered in blood. She asked curiously, "Old man, where did you go to get the blood man?" How could he dare to casually pick up injured people at such a sensitive time?
She stood up and walked over. When she saw the pale-faced man lying on the ground, she couldn"t help but frown. "Old man, do you know this man?" This man"s injuries were not ordinary.
Liu Zhimo might not be able to tell, but she, who was good at hunting, could tell at a glance.
The wound looked as if it had been inflicted by a sword. Judging from the wound, the person who had done it was very clean and crisp.
How could this old man know this person? Would this person bring any trouble to them?
The Old Man glanced at Li Qingling and knew that she would be able to see through him. He sighed in his heart.
"Yes, I know him. Why would I bring him back if I don"t?" If it wasn"t for the fact that he knew him and didn"t want to see him die, he wouldn"t have brought trouble upon himself and retrieved him.
Hopefully, his decision wasn"t wrong!
"Old man, you better pray that his enemy is not here. Otherwise, I will throw you out to protect you." Li Qingling snorted, she turned and walked out. This man had lost a lot of blood, so the floor must be dripping with it. She had to go and clean it up.
When she went out, she immediately saw Li Qingfeng and the rest cleaning up the bloodstains on the ground. She smiled and quickly went to help.
She brought a few children with her and cleaned all the blood stains around the cave. She also let Li Qingfeng and the others clean all the blood stains on the way back.
"Sis, you look very nervous?" After cleaning up the blood traces, Li Qingfeng finally raised his head and looked at Li Qingling as he asked, "Will that injured person bring us any sort of disaster?" If it wasn"t for that, elder sister wouldn"t be so nervous.
Hearing Li Qingfeng"s words, Li Qingling looked at him weirdly. She did not expect him to be so sensitive to even this aspect.
Li Qingling nodded her head lightly, she did not hide anything from Li Qingfeng and the others, and explained to them, "Cleaning up the blood traces was to be safe, firstly, to prevent the beasts from smelling the smell of blood, and secondly, to prevent the enemies from coming."
As the saying goes, harm is not to be done, but guard against others.
She didn"t want to raise her children in such a naive and innocent manner. She felt that being too naive would be difficult for her to establish a foothold in this era.
When the slightly older kids heard this, they looked pensive. On the other hand, Li Qingning and Liu Zhirou, the two brats, had confused expressions.
They didn"t really understand what their elder sister meant, since it was fine for them to follow their elder brother and sister.
"Let"s go back." Li Qingling brought the few children back to the cave.
She let the kids sit back down on the mat, looked at them seriously and said, "Stay here, you"re not allowed to go out, you"re not allowed to talk, if you speak, you"ll be heard by the bad guys and taken away, and elder sister won"t be able to save you, you know?"
She knew that those with powerful martial arts had very good hearing. Even if they spoke softly, they would still be able to hear her clearly.
For the sake of their safety, this was all she could ask of the children.
When the children heard her words, they all nodded their heads, indicating that they understood.
Li Qingling nodded in satisfaction, then walked to the old man"s side and looked at the man who was already bandaged.
"Old man, can you tell us who he is?" After saving her life, if she didn"t know who this person was, it wouldn"t be worth it. "I hope you can honestly answer us." She was afraid that the old man would lie to her in a casual way.
When the old man heard this, he sighed and said, "I can only tell you that he is an extraordinary general. As for other things, I won"t say them. The more you know, the more dangerous it is." He looked at the man on the ground, and then glanced darkly at Liu Zhimo who was pursing his lips, and furrowed his brows slightly.
Knowing that the man was a general, Li Qingling raised her eyebrows. Without asking further questions, she walked to the corner, picked up her bow and arrow, and carefully walked to the cave entrance, peeking through the dense vines.
She wanted to see if anyone would come outside.
In fact, she had already prepared for the worst. If someone found out about this, she would make the first move. She would shoot out her bow and arrow and shake the enemy a bit.
The old man and Liu Zhimo carefully carried the general to the mat that the old man made of reeds. After putting the general down, the old man quietly walked to Li Qingling"s side and looked outside, but when he did not see anyone approaching, he spoke in a low voice, "Girl, don"t stand here. Those people"s senses are very sharp. How could a person who could chase after and kill Liu Zhihao and injure him so heavily be an ordinary person?
Li Qingling tilted her head and glanced at the old man. After thinking for a bit, Li Qingling felt that it made sense.
The moment she lifted her foot, a few people wearing black clothes landed near the cave. "There"s no one here. He"s severely injured, where can he escape to?"
The moment she heard the voices coming from the outside, Li Qingling froze in place. She did not dare put her feet down, as she was afraid that others would notice.
Who knew how many people had come from outside? Since they appeared so quietly, she knew they were no match for the ordinary soldiers of the Southern Yan King. To be able to injure a general to such an extent, their martial arts must be very profound.
She didn"t even have the chance to retaliate before she was killed.
As she thought about this, her eyes swept across the children a few times before landing on Li Qingning. She was afraid that this little girl would not be able to hold back and make a sound.
If she spoke, they would all be dead.
When Li Qingfeng saw Li Qingling"s expression, he pursed her lips and slowly reached out to cover his mouth.
Although Li Qingning was small, she was still quite strange. She stared at the independent Li Qingling, she did not resist Li Qingfeng"s action of covering her mouth, and obediently sat down for him to cover her mouth.
In her little mind, she remembered that when bad people come, they are not allowed to talk or move.
If they spoke and moved, they would be captured by the bad guys and would never be able to see their brothers and sisters again.
She wanted to play with her brothers and sisters every day. She didn"t want to leave them.
Thus, she stayed still and did not speak.
Seeing this, Li Qingling breathed a sigh of relief, but she still did not dare move, only raising her ears and listening for any movement outside.
"Yes, he should be nearby. He won"t be far."
"Yes..."
A few African men began searching the area.
When Li Qingling heard this, his entire body tensed up. If they searched him like this, she would find their cave sooner or later.
What should he do?
What should he do now?
Li Qingling"s heart was in a rush, cold sweat dripping down her forehead. Compared to the last time she met the Southern Swallow King"s soldiers, she was even more nervous and afraid.
Last time, when she faced those soldiers, she might have been able to beat them, but this time, she really couldn"t do anything.
In the face of absolute power, she really couldn"t withstand a single blow.
She slowly turned her head to look at the old man and mouthed, "What should I do?"
The old man replied silently. Wait …
Now there was no other way but to wait.
However, he hated him for being lazy when he was young and did not want to learn martial arts. If he knew martial arts, he would not have been so pa.s.sive today.
The old man felt so regretful that his intestines turned green.
Li Qingling had no choice but to turn her head, her foot that was standing alone swayed, scaring her so much that she quickly stabilized her body.
If the battle dragged on, she would not be able to hold on for much longer.
Her brows tightly knitted, and her eyes looked towards Liu Zhimo. When she looked over, she saw his pair of dark and heavy eyes, and he silently consoled her, telling her not to worry. No matter what, he would definitely be by her side.
With just that one glance, she miraculously calmed her anxious heart.
Right, it was useless to be anxious right now. He had to calm down and think about what to do.
She didn"t want to just sit there and wait for death. She had to give it her all no matter what. If she couldn"t, the worst she could do was die together.
The best and worst results could only be seen once through in her mind. Li Qingling lightly closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and made a decision.
She let out a light breath. The moment she opened her eyes, she gently put down her foot.
She placed her feet on the ground and slowly turned her body. She quickly looked outside and then retracted her eyes.
With this glance, she could vaguely see that there was a man in black who was searching the area.
Li Qingling did not even dare to change her anger, her two hands tightly holding onto the bow and arrow. Once she was discovered, she would immediately shoot the bow and arrow.
If he were to shoot at such a close distance, he should be able to kill him with a single arrow.
She glanced at the motionless old man, opened her mouth and mouthed, Here it comes.
When the old man saw what she was saying, his heart jumped.
He smiled wryly as he thought about how glorious Xue Liangzi had been in the past, but now …
This person"s martial arts was profound, Li Qingling p.r.i.c.ked up her ears, but was unable to hear any footsteps. She bit her lower lip, and looked outside again.
This glance nearly made her heart beat.
