155. Saving people
Thirty miles away in Fule Temple, Xiao Wenxuan and his entourage had just left, and two men, one tall and one short, dressed in strong suits, were sneaking around, and approached the courtyard where Xiao Wenxuan lived while they were unprepared.
One of the short men, seeing that there was no one around, pushed the door, but it did not move. The other tall man took a few steps back, trying to jump in from the wall, but as soon as his feet left the ground, the guard Gao Hanlin opened the door and walked out of it.
"Who?"
"We ......"
The tall man who wanted to jump over the wall was almost thrown to the ground by Gao Hanlin's fright.
He stabilized his figure and glanced at the one in front of the door, and lied and said, "Our son-in-law went up the mountain to incense." We're here to find my son-in-law. ”
Gao Hanlin glanced at them and said coldly: "Prince Ning and the princess are resting here, you leave quickly!" ”
"Prince Ning is here? Who believes it, we are watching Childe come here, I want to go in and take a look, don't you kidnap our Childe. ”
The short man wanted to drill through the crack in the door as he spoke, but Gao Hanlin grabbed him and slammed him to the ground:
"Dare to disturb the prince? Look for death! ”
Gao Hanlin widened his eyes and pulled out his knife with a "whoosh".
"Ah, you are bullying, we just want to come to find people, why are you so fierce?"
The short man pretended to be scared and hid behind the tall man, shouting incessantly.
"Looking for someone? I'm afraid it's not necessarily a petty thief, so get out of here! Gao Hanlin flipped his wrist, and the dazzling light of the steel knife in his hand pierced the two of them.
"You ......" The tall man stretched out his hand to block the light, and just wanted to accuse him angrily, a girl walked out from behind Gao Hanlin, only to see her cross her waist and stare loudly:
"Who dares to make a noise here? The princess was woken up, and the prince was angry and wanted to arrest someone to go in. ”
Arrest? As soon as the two saw that this girl was well-dressed, and then looked at this arrogance, they exchanged glances with each other, and ran away in a hurry.
Gao Hanlin saw the two of them go away, retreated into the door with Xichun, closed the door, and Gao Hanlin praised her with admiration: "Miss Xichun, you are still amazing." ”
Xichun smiled: "Where, they don't have good intentions at a glance." I don't know if the prince is going well. ”
"Don't worry, the prince has always been cautious."
The two returned to the courtyard, Xichun told Su Muling that someone was inquiring in front of the door, and Su Muling snorted coldly: "It seems that this person is not small, and he doesn't even pay attention to Prince Ning." ”
"Miss, you go to sleep first, uncle, when they come back, I will call you."
Xichun saw Su Muling yawning and flipped through a chess book in her hand, knowing that she remembered Xiao Wenxuan and refused to go to sleep.
"I'm not sleepy." Su Muling held on.
"Uncle said that it is nearly a hundred miles back and forth, even if it is fast, it will take several hours. Miss sleep for a while, and when my uncle comes back, I have the energy to ask, right? "Xichun persuasion.
Su Muling thought about it, put down the chess game in his hand, and entered the bed.
Su Muling is afraid of the cold, and every year she has to warm herself earlier than others. The earth dragon at home has begun to burn, there is no earth dragon here, and the charcoal stove is required in the temple of the Spring Dynasty.
Covered the corners of the quilt for Su Muling, put down the curtain, and went out lightly.
……
At this time, fifty miles away from them, where the official road collapsed, Xiao Wenxuan and the others stopped.
"Further down is where we were attacked, and there were ambushes." Noah looked ahead hatefully. "I almost made them find out when I found it out last night."
"Shadowless, what can you do?" Xiao Wenxuan turned his head to look at Wuying.
Wuying looked at the terrain and proposed: "The official road is impassable, and others can't get through, but it can't stop us." We can abandon our horses from the official road and bypass them and go straight into the woods. ”
"Okay, that's it."
Xiao Wenxuan took the lead in dismounting, found a place to tie the horse well, and several people took advantage of the moonlight to quickly leap on the rocks that rolled down the official road......
An hour later, several men quietly sneaked into the woods. Led by Noha, they soon found the cave where Delang was hiding.
In the cave, Imantha, who heard the footsteps, dragged Delang's sword and hid at the entrance of the cave like a frightened bird, with one arm hanging at her side. The prince was seriously injured and fainted, and she had to fight to protect her.
"Prince? Prince? "The Noahs arrived before they arrived." Prince, I am Noha. ”
Hearing Noah's voice, Imantha's whole body was unloaded, and the sword fell to the ground.
Xiao Wenxuan stayed at the entrance of the cave, and the others entered the cave.
The cave is not large, and it stenges of decay, but the entrance is secluded and suitable for hiding.
Shadowless took out the fire fold and lit the candle he brought, and the dim light reflected Imantha's frightened face.
"The crown princess." Xiao Wenxuan gave her a hand.
Imantha's tears couldn't stop flowing: "Lord, please save the prince......" Imansha bit her lower lip, and her eyes fell on Delang, who fainted in the corner.
Xiao Wenxuan walked up to Delang and frowned after squatting down to check his injuries.
"No shadow."
Xiao Wenxuan dodged away, and Wuying, who was following him, put down the big burden he had been carrying, and took out a few bottles and cans from his arms.
He felt Delang's pulse for a long time before he put it down, and then he took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and poured a pill from it and stuffed it into Delang's mouth.
Then he simply bandaged the wounds on his body, and finally his eyes fell on the bloody spot on Delang's head.
"The prince hit the stone to save me." Imantha choked.
Shadowless nodded, that's right. The injuries on Delang's body were not life-threatening, but his weak breath could kill him at any time, indicating that the fatal wound should be his head.
After bandaging the wound, he got up without a shadow.
"Lord Wang, I have already given him the Soul Preservation Pill. Won't die for a short time. But he was seriously injured in the head, and I'm afraid I'll have to hire a good doctor......"
"Plop!" Imansha, who had been standing beside Xiao Wenxuan, suddenly fainted, startling everyone.
The cave was dimly lit, and everyone's attention had been on Derang until Imantha fainted, and everyone turned their attention to her.
I saw that Imansha's face was pale, her body had been trembling slightly, and her left arm was hanging unnaturally.
"The crown princess?"
Xiao Wenxuan hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, patting her cheek with the back of his hand to try to wake her up. "The crown princess? The Crown Princess? ”
Immantha slowly opened her eyes.
"Shadowless, show her." Xiao Wenxuan saw that Immantha woke up and let go of her.
Shadowless walked over and crouched down.
"Crown princess, offended." After speaking, he examined Imantha's left arm through her clothes.
With just a slight touch, Imantha's face was distorted in pain.
"It's a broken bone. But fortunately, it is not misplaced. ”
Shadowless let go of her, took out pain-relieving pills for her to eat, and picked up two branches from outside for Imantha's arm to hold.
At this time, Fang Ping, who was guarding outside the door, suddenly came in: "Lord Wang, someone is coming in this direction." ”
"It's not easy to stay here, we have to leave right away."
Shadowless opened the package he brought and took out two thin blankets from inside.
He threw a pomegranate to him, took a thin blanket and wrapped Delang on the ground with a blanket on his back and shoulders, and tied the blanket four diagonally to his chest, and Delang was firmly fixed to Shadowless.
Pomegranate opened the blanket and smiled at Imantha: "Crown Princess, for the sake of the Prince, please be wronged." ”
Immantha knows that the mountain road is rugged, she is a woman, and she is injured, and walking on her own will affect everyone. But let a man be on his shoulder...... Imantha hesitated.
Pomegranate knew that she had mistaken herself for a man, so she smiled and whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'm also a woman." ”
Imantha's face turned red instantly. Look at Pomegranate again, although she is dressed in men's clothes. But there are pierced ears on the ears, and sure enough, it is a woman dressed as a man.
"Then it's hard for you."
Imantha is not tall or fat, and it is not difficult for Pomegranate to carry her on her back.
Out of the cave, not far away, there is a fire that appears and disappears. It should be the group that searched for the prince.
If it were normal, Xiao Wenxuan would definitely go and catch it and ask for the behind-the-scenes instructions. But now that Delang's life was in danger, he could only give up and lead everyone to avoid each other under the cover of the woods.
……
At three o'clock, several black shadows outside the courtyard where Su Muling was resting in Fule Temple came from far and near.
Gao Hanlin, who had been guarding the door, recognized that it was his own prince, and quickly opened the courtyard door and let them in.
Fang Ping opened the way in front of him, Wuying and Pomegranate hurriedly came in with one person on their backs, and then Xiao Wenxuan, Nuha and Li Feng quickly flashed in.
Su Muling, who had not slept all this time, heard the sound and quickly got up and ran out with Xichun.
"How? Is it still going well? ”
Su Muling pulled Xiao Wenxuan to look up and down.
Xiao Wenxuan knew that she was worried about herself, so he took her hand and whispered in her ear: "Don't worry, everyone has taken it back." ”
Su Muling's heart finally let go, and when she saw Pomegranate carrying a person on her back and being led into the next room by Xichun, Su Muling also followed.
"Imantha? What's wrong with her? ”
On the bed, Imantha's eyes were closed and unconscious.
Pomegranate pulled the blanket out from behind her and pulled it over to cover her. Only then did he stand beside Su Muling and replied, "Miss, don't worry, the crown princess's left arm is broken." The road was bumpy, and Wuying was afraid that she would be in severe pain, so he gave her medicine and let her sleep. ”
"Xichun, you take hot water to clean her, and then go get my clothes and change them for her."
Imantha was still dressed in her crown princess dress, but she was covered in dust and scraped by tree branches because of her escape. His hair was messy, and his face was stained with blood.
Xichun should be busy going to fetch water to find clothes.
In another room, Wuying put Delang on the bed in the guest room, and Xiao Wenxuan pulled Gao Hanlin to a corner and asked in a low voice, "After we leave, what's abnormal?" ”
"Two people were chased away by us under the pretext of looking for someone to investigate."
Xiao Wenxuan pondered for a moment and then ordered: "You go and invite Master Wuxi, just say that human life is a matter of heaven, and ask him to save people." ”
"Yes." Gao Hanlin hurried out.
A quarter of an hour later, the Master of Desirelessness arrived, followed by a small novice carrying a medicine box.
The crowd in front of the bed all flashed to the side, making way for the open space in front of the bed.
"I'm sorry to disturb me late at night, this person has a serious head injury and the situation is critical, so I can only ask the master to come to the rescue." Xiao Wenxuan said politely.
"The prince is polite, save people's lives, and win the seventh-level floating slaughter, which is within the old man's sake." Master Desireless said, his hand already on Delang's wrist.
Master Desireless has mastered medical skills, but it is easy not to be exposed. After carefully examining the wound on Delang's head, he said to Xiao Wenxuan:
"This benefactor is seriously injured, and there is too much delay, the old man does not dare to guarantee that he can be saved, but he will do his best, please take someone to wait outside."
"Lord ......"
Noha's trust in Xiao Wenxuan does not mean that he trusts everyone.
Xiao Wenxuan shook his head secretly at him and took people out.
