Chapter 29
Chapter 29
She was covered in wounds, her blood-stained wedding dress torn in several places. It was a shocking sight, a blood-soaked figure, but she ignored her injuries and ran faster into the dense forest.
She absolutely could not let those people capture Liu Qishan, could not let Liu Qishan be put in danger because of her, and could not let them use Liu Qishan to threaten her!
With pursuers constantly behind him, he could only breathe softly and use the intricate terrain of the dense forest to conceal his presence.
"Split up and pursue them! The lord has ordered that we must find them alive or dead!"
"Yes!"
The other party possessed internal energy and could easily detect her aura. She could only stay far away from them and barely hear what they were saying.
Nalan Jingwen's expression turned solemn, and his killing intent subsided slightly.
Who on earth did the original owner offend that they would try to kill her and leave her with such a mess?
Today is her wedding day with Liu Qishan, but it has been ruined. Now she really wants to pull out the original owner's soul and tear it apart!
But the situation is critical now, and this is not the time to think about these things. I turned around and went deeper into the area.
She and Liu Qishan often came to the depths of the dense forest to accompany him in gathering herbs. Because she was worried about him and afraid that wild animals might appear, she always accompanied him. Now, because she understood him, she didn't wander around aimlessly and leave clues for others.
The most important thing now is to find Liu Qishan, but where will he go?
She glanced around; the area was overgrown with vegetation, and the trees towered into the clouds, blocking out the sun. The atmosphere was gloomy, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.
He lowered his eyes and pondered deeply, not missing a single detail of his time with Liu Qishan.
Where will he run to?
Suddenly, something flashed through my mind, and my eyes lit up.
Yes, that's it!
She quickly headed west, where there was a cave that she and Liu Qishan had accidentally discovered while gathering herbs. It was very secluded, and they had joked that it could be used as a secret base for resting.
She was injured and bleeding profusely, which greatly hampered her speed and movement, and her heart was in her throat.
Liu Qishan was blind, and the dense forest was fraught with danger, with shrubs and thorns everywhere. Although it hindered the enemy's advance, Liu Qishan was bound to get injured in the chaos.
Thinking this, she wished she could appear by Liu Qishan's side immediately.
Suddenly, she heard an extremely faint groan, so soft that she would not have heard it if she hadn't been on high alert and was very familiar with the sound!
Desolate Mountain!
They quickly headed in the direction the sound came from, parted the bushes as tall as a person, and saw a piece of red cloth.
Liu Qishan was sitting on the ground, his expression one of suppressed pain, which made Nalan Jingwen's heart leap.
"Desolate Mountain!"
Liu Qishan looked up when he heard the voice, somewhat surprised.
"Jingwen?"
He quickly calmed down.
"Go quickly! Don't worry about me!"
Nalan Jingwen took a step to his side, his face gloomy, staring intently at the foot in the hand.
He had been stabbed in the ankle by a wooden splinter as thick as a baby's arm! Now it was covered in blood and looked gruesome.
No wonder the usually resilient Liu Qishan was stuck here, unable to move; no wonder the person who never cried out in pain couldn't help but groan, his forehead covered in cold sweat.
Seeing Liu Qishan injured, the pain in her heart was even greater than the pain from the several wounds on her body.
"Jingwen, you go quickly, don't worry about me!"
"Shut up!"
Nalan Jing heard a low shout and squatted down to give him a quick treatment.
The thorn was too thick, and there were no special tools around to pull it out. We could only wait until we escaped to pull it out, but if we delayed any longer, this leg might be ruined!
She was at a loss for what to do, her face as cold as ice.
The situation is critical, and we must make a choice as soon as possible.
Perhaps sensing what she was thinking, Liu Qishan grasped her hand with a firm expression.
"Go ahead and pull it out, I can manage."
He was a doctor, so he knew what to do. He gave her a smile, pale and delicate, but more radiant than ever before. "It's okay. Even if I can't walk anymore and become disabled, you won't abandon me, right?"
Nalan Jingwen stared at him with his dark eyes, hesitated for only a few seconds, and quickly made a decision.
She grasped his hand in return, her words heavy with meaning.
"No matter what, you will always be my Liu Qishan."
With just that one sentence, he understood that she had made a decision, and his smile widened.
With her back to him, she lifted his foot and said, "If it hurts, bite my shoulder."
Liu Qishan nodded weakly, reaching out to wrap his arms around Nalan Jingwen's waist. When he touched the dampness in his hands, his fingertips trembled, his breathing became erratic, and he finally lowered his hands.
Nalan Jingwen didn't notice these details, focusing all his attention on the injury to his ankle.
On the one hand, they also had to be wary of pursuers outside.
Gripping the splinter tightly, Liu Qishan trembled all over with just a touch. Though reluctant, he gritted his teeth and pulled it out.
The moment it was pulled out, blood gushed out, and the person behind him groaned, his whole body trembling violently as he suppressed it, but he managed to endure it.
Nalan Jingwen's face was grave, and his hands moved swiftly. Fortunately, Liu Qishan had the habit of carrying medicine with him. He took out a bottle of hemostatic medicine from his pocket, sprinkled it on, and with a tearing sound, tore off a piece of cloth from his sleeve to bandage him.
Liu Qishan didn't utter a sound the whole time. If it weren't for his desperate attempt to suppress his trembling body, one would really think he wasn't in pain.
After quickly bandaging him up, I turned to look at him. His condition was very bad; his face was completely bloodless, his lips were pale and transparent, and he was covered in sweat.
“Desolate Mountain…”
Liu Qishan raised his eyes, his gaze hazy, as if he were about to faint at any moment.
His hands were gripping the ground tightly, turning the surrounding earth dark. Nalan Jingwen's expression hardened, and he picked up his hands, only to see that all ten fingers were covered in blood, the nails were broken, revealing the flesh inside, and the middle was covered in dirt, showing how much force he had used.
The pain in your ten fingers is so intense, it's like a knife to your heart!
"Didn't I tell you to bite me because I felt pain?!"
Her aura surged, her voice filled with anger, yet her movements were incredibly gentle, as if afraid of hurting him in the slightest.
Even if it hurt so much that he bled his own finger, he wouldn't bite her.
Liu Qishan slowly withdrew his hand, panting as he shook his head.
"I'm fine, let's go quickly."
He's still saying he's fine, and he's still comforting her.
Nalan Jingwen was now filled with anger but had nowhere to vent it, and he was reluctant to hurt him, so he could only suppress it and try to escape this calamity before making any further plans.
Liu Qishan struggled to get up. She stepped forward to help him, but he dodged her. It was too obvious, which made her frown.
"I can."
He stood up each time but fell back down, yet he wouldn't let Nalan Jingwen help him up. After several repetitions, Nalan Jingwen couldn't bear to watch any longer and picked him up.
Liu Qishan instinctively wrapped his arms around her neck, but immediately let go.
"hold me!"
She gave a forceful order: if they didn't leave now, they would be discovered; the stench of blood here was too strong.
Liu Qishan's eyes were red, and his fingers were trembling.
Nalan Jingwen suddenly paused, looking at the pained expression on his face. He pursed his lips and remained silent, his expression complicated. Then, he picked her up and flew swiftly towards the cave to the west.
She now understood why Liu Qishan had just acted.
Her body was covered in wounds, so numerous that to others there wasn't a single unscathed spot. Though they were superficial injuries, they were still shocking to behold.
Liu Qishan is a doctor. He might be able to tell that she is injured, and that she has many wounds, through her sense of smell, but actually touching her with his hands would be a different matter.
She had assumed his eyes were filled with tears and his fingers were trembling because he was in too much pain, but she forgot that Liu Qishan was such a strong person that he would never shed tears because of his own injury.
It can only be because of her, because I feel sorry for her, I feel sorry for her injuries all over her body, so I dare not touch her, afraid of touching the wounds all over her body, even if they are just superficial wounds.
Like her, he never cared about his own injuries, but when the other person was injured, even with a small wound, it felt like being slowly torn apart in his heart.
