Gu Xuebin smiled after hearing this, and explained: "You can bite it by lowering your head here." If on the battlefield, mine breaks, I can still bite a dagger and make a last stand. ”

Su Jinyao's heart was astringent when she heard this, she raised her hand and knocked on his head, and said, "It's people like you who stubbornly resist, right?" If you are really seriously injured, of course you have to choose to escape. ”

"Jin Yao, I am the general who leads the troops, and I want to stand with my soldiers until the end." Gu Xuebin said, smiled, and continued: "When I was a child, my uncle told me a lot about him on the battlefield (qíng), and he said that morale is the key to victory or defeat. Only when the commander has the determination to win, even to death, can the army be invincible. ”

Su Jinyao's hand paused, and the fingers that touched the dagger trembled slightly.

She never knew that Gu Xuebin would have such a side, with a firm will and unyielding.

If Gu Xuebin in the past had a beautiful face and a gentle attitude that Su Jinyao liked, then now he shows a man's fortitude and domineering, and shows his full national integrity, which makes Su Jinyao sincerely admire.

"Jinyao?" Gu Xuebin gently supported Su Jinyao's chin with his hand to bring her back to her senses, and then asked her with a smile, "Will it hurt for a while?" ”

"Cut, I'm not afraid of death, but I'm still afraid of pain?" Su Jinyao glared at him and quickly took off the dagger.

It is a well-crafted lancet flying knife with a thin blade and a small knife (shēn) that is unusually sharp. It can be seen that Gu Xuebin may have really tied the scabbard to this position to facilitate his use.

Su Jinyao's heart attack was sour and astringent, pinching the thin lancet, looking at Gu Xuebin's wound, and asking, "Che, why did you come alone?" What's going on with these Qingfan soldiers? ”

Gu Xuebin pursed his lips and replied, "It should be Ah Ye who smelled your breath." Originally, I was just curious about why Ah Ye suddenly came, so I followed it all the way. As a result, I saw that these Qingfan soldiers were secretly deployed here, and at the same time, I also saw that Geng Bin, who was already injured, was escorted among them. Then he said: "Jin Yao, if you want to do it, just do it, don't distract me." ”

Su Jinyao laughed, nodded and said, "Okay, I'm going to cut the wound now and pull out the arrow for you." Still, you can go ahead and tell me. ”

"Okay." Gu Xuebin pursed his lips and smiled, and continued: "When I saw Geng Bin, I knew that the person who was ambushed should be you, so I planned to kill them by surprise." Unexpectedly, as soon as the fight began, a large number of hyenas were running around, and the Qingfan people were in a hurry to retreat, and there was no way to speak of it. And that's how it turned out. However, Geng Bin was finally saved. Hmmm......"

Gu Xuebin snorted, and Su Jinyao had already pulled out the arrow shaft in his calf. Fortunately, there was no poison on the shaft of the arrow, and the blood was bright red.

Su Jinyao hurriedly pressed a large piece of cloth dipped in medicinal powder to stop the bleeding on the wounds on both sides, and then asked Gu Xuebin: "You are here to save me, and you killed all the Qingfan people here, right?" If it weren't for you, I guess these Qingfan people would have surrounded me a long time ago. You saved me, and I still want it when it's time to ask for credit. ”

"Jin Yao, then if I invite credit, what sweetness do you give me?" Gu Xuebin let go of his eyebrows that were twisted because of the severe pain, and came over with a smile.

Su Jinyao wrapped the wound on his calf tightly, then looked up at him, and suddenly leaned over to kiss him on the face. But when kissing him on the cheek, Su Jinyao's tears finally couldn't help but slide down.

Gu Xuebin, a fool, is quietly fighting with the Qingfan people here. In case of...... She was saying that if something happened to him (qíng), would she be able to see him again when she came here?

"Hehe, it's worth it." Gu Xuebin grinned stupidly.

But as soon as he turned his head, he saw the tears on Su Jinyao's face, and his heart suddenly hurt, holding Su Jinyao's face with both hands, and asked, "What's wrong, Jinyao?" It's okay, don't cry. ”

"I know it's okay. But can't you use your brain? At this time, you should call someone. Call the good men in your army to come and annihilate the Qingfan people in one fell swoop. ”

Su Jinyao was so angry that she slapped Gu Xuebin's hand away, moved to the side to check Geng Bin's broken arm, and at the same time couldn't help but lecture him: "You still say that you are the commander (shēn), but if you make any mistakes, what will happen to your army and your soldiers?" ”

Su Jinyao always felt afraid when she thought that Gu Xuebin Gu (shēn) was in danger, just to delay the Qingfan people here and prevent them from surrounding her.

However, if these Qingfan people and the hundred or so hyenas all rushed towards him at that time, even if there was one more wolf king Ah Ye, it is estimated that Su Jinyao would not retreat from the whole (shēn).

Gu Xuebin saw that Su Jinyao still had tears on her face, and her restless eyes were erratic, so he moved his (shēn) son, jumped to Su Jinyao's (shēn) side with one leg, and said, "My soldiers don't have me, and there are adjutants who can command temporarily." But I can't leave you alone. You are my only one, in this life and this life, my Gu Xuebin can only put Jinyao first. ”

"Fool." Su Jinyao glared at Gu Xuebin again, stretched out her hand to help him, motioned for him to sit down quickly, and then began to seriously examine Geng Bin's wounds.

Although Geng Bin's severed arm has been bandaged, there is too much blood, and he is now in a coma completely due to hemorrhagic (xìng) shock. Even if he does a good job of dealing with it now and stops the blood flow immediately, it is difficult to say whether his (xìng) life can be saved.

Su Jinyao hurriedly sealed Geng Bin's several places with a silver needle to avoid heart failure due to excessive blood loss, and then re-untied the cloth strip he had bandaged the broken arm, debrided, medicated, bandaged, and carefully dealt with it.

After Geng Bin's injury was dealt with, Su Jinyao suddenly said: "Ah, I forgot one person, your shadow guard seventeen." ”

Gu Xuebin looked Su Jinyao up and down again, and said, "Fortunately, you're fine, he has fulfilled his duties as a shadow guard." ”

Su Jinyao said: "Yes, I didn't expect that you would arrange such a person to be by my (shēn) side." I have to go and pick him up now, you have a good rest, and I'll let Ah Ye stay here with you. ”

After saying that, Su Jinyao got up (shēn) and left, but Gu Xuebin beckoned Ah Ye, who was lying in the distance and refused to approach the fire, and said, "Go, follow Jinyao to have a look." ”

Ah Ye quickly flipped (shēn) up, shook the black and shiny hair on (shēn), and ran away after Su Jinyao.

Su Jinyao knew that if she didn't take Ah Ye with her, Gu Xuebin would not be at ease. I won't say more, I want to get Seventeen back as soon as possible.

Su Jinyao took Ah Ye through the woods for a while, and heard footsteps coming from in front of her. The footsteps are sometimes high and sometimes low, and it seems a little dragged. She cried out, "Seventeen? ”

"Miss Liu, it's me." Seventeen's answer came, and then he was heard quickening his pace.

Su Jinyao hurriedly greeted him, and saw him walking towards this side with a branch, his face was very pale, and his eyes were a little sloppy, and he could see that he was trying his best to support.

Su Jinyao came to Seventeen and said, "Sit down first, I'll take a look at your wounds." If there is no poisonous blood, you will be bandaged on the spot before leaving. ”

Seventeen shook his head and said, "It's okay, Miss Liu doesn't have to worry about me." There seems to be a fire ahead? ”

"Yes, I found Gu Xuebin." Su Jinyao said: "However, the situation is not very good. ”

"I didn't do my best to protect the safety of my master, and it was my dereliction of duty to be the shadow guard." Seventeen's face was even paler, and his tone was weak.

Su Jinyao said: "You don't have the division (shēn) technique, how can you protect me and take care of Gu Xuebin's safety." If you're worried about him, I'll help you go and bandage you over there. ”

Of course, Seventeen didn't have the heart to stay, but he also insisted on not letting Su Jinyao help him, just letting Su Jinyao pull the branch in his hand as a crutch to borrow strength.

Su Jinyao sighed, feeling that this guy was really pedantic. But now in such a situation, I have no intention of arguing with him about these trivial matters. He directly held on to the branch and pulled Seventeen forward as soon as possible.

When Seventeen saw Gu Xuebin, he knelt directly on the ground, knelt down and crawled over, still didn't dare to raise his head, so he shouted: "Master." ”

"It's okay, you get up. You are meritorious in protecting her. Gu Xuebin nodded, and did not mean to blame Seventeen.

Only then did Su Jinyao begin to check on Seventeen. The poison in his previous hyena bite had been drained, and several wounds were not too deep and had stopped bleeding on their own. Su Jinyao bandaged him a little and dealt with it.

After settling Seventeen, Su Jinyao sat down next to Gu Xuebin, took a long breath, and then said, "What now?" Only Ah Ye and I are fine, the remaining three are seriously injured, and you are all big men, I'm afraid I can't carry any of them. ”

If you want to say that you can carry Gu Xuebin, Su Jinyao can do it, but Geng Bin and Seventeen were both injured for Su Jinyao, and there is no one (qíng), so you can't leave the two of them alone.

Gu Xuebin threw a piece of firewood in the fire and said, "Fortunately, my horse is on the other side of the mountain." I sensed that the atmosphere in the woods was not right, so I left my horse behind and sneaked over myself. ”

"But now there are three wounded, and there is only one horse." Su Jinyao glanced at Geng Bin, who was still in a coma, and said to Gu Xuebin: "You and Seventeen ride horses, I'll take advantage of the moment to make a stretcher, let Brother Geng lie on the stretcher, and let your horse walk." ”

Gu Xuebin said: "Fortunately, this group of Qingfan people did not escape, and they were all injured. They occupy a large part of our land, but they are further away from their camp. Even if they had to go back and move their troops, they would have to go for at least three hours. That is, before dawn, we are safe. ”

Fortunately, three hours was enough for her to prepare.

But Su Jinyao glanced at Gu Xuebin's legs again, shook her head and said, "In these three hours, you have to promise me to recuperate with peace of mind and don't move." If you can't listen, I have a way to get you to sleep. ”

Although Gu Xuebin still wanted to say something, but seeing Su Jinyao's worried eyes, and her eyes that had just shed tears and were still a little red, in order not to worry Su Jinyao, he could only nod.

Seventeen quickly stood up and said, "Miss Liu, I'll go with you to chop branches and make stretchers." It can be done in two hours at most. Then we will go on the road, you and the master can ride horses, and my legs can still hold on. ”

Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "Don't fight at this time." I'm in the best shape at the moment, so I'll do the preparation. You and Gu Xuebin are responsible for staying here and resting well, as well as taking care of Brother Geng. At this time, we can no longer afford to lose any of our companions. ”

Cohesion is sometimes what supports a team to keep going in the most dangerous times. At this time, what Su Jinyao used was precisely not to lose anyone to unite this small group.

Even though there is a huge difference in the (shēn) of several of them, Su Jinyao believes that Gu Xuebin is definitely not the kind of prince who only cares about himself.

Sure enough, Gu Xuebin didn't object to anything, just closed his eyes and slowly began to adjust his breathing, putting himself in a state of rest and adjustment. Since Gu Xuebin was willing to take a break, Su Jinyao temporarily put her mind at ease. She went to drag away the corpse of the Qingfan man nearby, not to mention that it was an eyesore, and the smell of blood was always in the air, which was too easy to make people feel depressed and nervous.

When Su Jinyao was busy, Seventeen wanted to get up (shēn). But Gu Xuebin waved his hand at him slightly, and said in a low voice: "Rest now, and when we evacuate for a while, we will face a more difficult situation." ”

"Master?" Seventeen looked at Gu Xuebin, slightly puzzled, and said, "But I should help Miss Liu." ”

Gu Xuebin shook his head again, making sure that Su Jinyao had gone farther away, before he whispered: "The Qingfan people are not as simple as we imagined, although there are very few people who escape, they have a special way of transmitting messages. Their Gu worms are very powerful. ”

After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, Seventeen immediately understood. Gu Xuebin wanted to reassure Su Jinyao, so he deliberately said too much time. In fact, the Qingfan people may come earlier than they expected, or even menacingly.

Gu Xuebin nodded slightly and said, "In a while, it's time for us to protect her." So now it is necessary to rest. ”

Seventeen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then closed his eyes with peace of mind and tried his best to regulate his internal breath. He understood, he could rest now, but when he met Qingfan again in a while, he would have to fight hard.

Su Jinyao dragged away the corpse of the Qingfan people, and also did some examinations. She collected a few weapons that could be used, and at the same time she found a green fan with a very strange drum around his waist.

The small drum is slightly larger than the child's toy rattle, I don't know what kind of leather it is made of, the leather surface is delicate, and it feels particularly elastic (xìng) to the touch, and the sound is not very loud when hit, but it is very soft and good.

Su Jinyao was stunned for a while with the small drum, always feeling a little familiar, as if she had heard of it somewhere, but now she couldn't remember it for a while.

But intuitively, Su Jinyao felt that this small drum was definitely useful, so she hung it on her waist casually.

And the few weapons she collected were all long knives with extremely wide backs, which could be used to chop branches and make stretchers. There was also a scimitar, and Su Jinyao was also inserted behind her back, reserved for defense (shēn).

It's better to have a scimitar than a dagger or a stone, so that you can return the knife to Seventeen. He has two knives in his hands, and his combat effectiveness can definitely be improved.

Originally, it would not take much time to make a simple stretcher, but Su Jinyao still took the time to choose a stronger wood, and then strengthened the lower part of the stretcher, adding a few strands of bark stripped and smoothed core.

This is to reduce friction, and the horse can be dragged away with less effort; It can also avoid the stretcher being dragged on the ground for too long and grinding to the point of falling apart.

By the time all this was done, nearly an hour had passed. Su Jinyao rushed back with a stretcher, and unexpectedly found that Geng Bin had also woken up.

It's just that Geng Bin was completely dissipated because of excessive blood loss, and he said that he was awake, but his consciousness was not particularly clear.

But this is better than the look of struggling on the verge of death just now, Su Jinyao finally breathed a sigh of relief. Hurriedly fed Geng Bin a pill and gave him more water.

When Gu Xuebin heard that Su Jinyao was back, he slowly opened his eyes, smiled at Su Jinyao, and said, "Jinyao, you are really capable." And I've recovered a lot. ”

Su Jinyao said: "Then let's get ready to go on the road." Do you see how to summon your horse? Or am I going to bring it over? ”

"Just let Ah Ye find it. Along the way, Ah Ye and my war horse have become very familiar. After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he beckoned to Ah Ye, and after waiting for it to come over, he rubbed its neck and asked it to bring Mo Lei over.

Ah Ye was very sensible, and after listening to Gu Xuebin's words, he flicked his tail a few times, and rubbed it on Su Jinyao's leg, and then turned (shēn) and ran away.

Su Jinyao said: "Then take advantage of the moment, I will check the wound for you again." Once you're on the road, it's best not to stop for something else (qíng). ”

Gu Xuebin nodded, obediently waiting for Su Jinyao to check him.

Su Jinyao's wound medicine is very effective, even though Gu Xuebin's injuries are very deep, but the hemostatic effect is very good, and it is about to scab.

Su Jinyao said: "It's okay, I'll tie your wound a little tighter, and you try not to move on the way, so as not to tear the wound." Otherwise, you'll have to consider stitching you when you go back. ”

"What is a stitch?" Gu Xuebin looked puzzled, then grabbed Su Jinyao's hand and shook it vigorously, and said, "Tie the wound tightly for me first, I'm afraid...... Bumps in the road. ”

After a pause, Gu Xuebin said again: "Jin Yao, you have to promise me that you won't take too much care of me on the road for a while, you and Ah Ye will go first, and Ah Ye will take you to our army." Seventeen and I take Geng Bin with us, we can walk slowly, so that our wounds will be fine. ”

Su Jinyao was about to say something, but Seventeen immediately said, "Miss Liu, please tie my wound tighter." ”

As soon as the topic diverged, Su Jinyao forgot what she had to insist on just now, so she ran over to treat Seventeen's wounds as soon as possible.
