Chapter 155. Under attack
In a daze, I felt that the bed under me was shaking. After feeling it carefully, I realized that I was not in bed, but in a carriage.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that the carriage was moving, and I was the only one in the carriage.
I had a splitting headache, but I managed to sit up and lift the curtains. The driver was Rin, the former guard of Ah Ran.
"Rin, we're ......"
Rin turned around. "The girl is awake? I woke up two days earlier than Childe expected. ”
"What?" I'm confused.
"The girl drinks one of the best spirits in the source country, and the son guesses that the girl has to sleep for five days, and he doesn't want the girl to wake up in three days."
"Three days!? I've been in a coma for three days!? ”
Rin saw my shocked look, but her reaction was still very weak. "Not bad."
I patted my cheek, trying to remember what had happened.
Finished! All I can remember is that I fell into the pit and then I didn't know anything.
How did I get out? Did you get drunk?
As I watched the carriage move forward, I remembered and asked, "Where are we going?" ”
"Back to the court. It's been three days since I set off, and now I've just entered the realm of my court. ”
"Just go back!?"
I haven't said goodbye to the prairie yet! Why did you go back? Or while I'm unconscious!
"Yes, the son said that if he doesn't leave, I'm afraid I will be forced to marry."
Forced marriage? Could it be that Alyssa has really decided to marry Ah Ran?
I wanted to ask, but I felt that it seemed a little inappropriate to gossip about him with Ah Ran's men, so I swallowed the words back.
"What about him?" I asked.
"Childe is in the carriage ahead."
So I asked Rin to stop the car, wanting to share a ride with Ah Ran, and ask him about what I had missed in the past few days.
But I didn't want that guy to stop me and not let me into the car. I could only sit on the partition outside his car curtain.
I don't think I messed with him, did I? Why is he so desperate? Didn't I just drink some wine and sleep for a few days?
Don't? ……
My scalp suddenly tightened, could it be that during the period when I drank the fragments, I really did something very out of the ordinary, which made Ah Ran very embarrassed?!
I immediately became empty-hearted, grabbed the side of the carriage, and asked Ah Ran inside without confidence:
"Did I do something I shouldn't have done when I was drunk?"
There was no response inside. I don't know if he acquiesced or didn't hear me at all. Now, my heart is even more empty.
"Ah Ran, you can say something! Are you going to ignore me all the time? ”
However, it was not Ah Ran who responded to me, but a terrible neighing of the horse, and even the carriage slammed into a slam.
"There is an ambush to protect the son and the girl!"
He let out a loud shout and drew his sword to protect me behind me.
In an instant, our convoy was surrounded. The men were not dressed as Assassins, nor were they masked, but they were all dressed in powerful suits with fierce eyes.
It dawned on me that something was wrong.
Who are these people? We were assassinated as soon as we entered the Fengli country, could it be that we have been planning for a long time?!
Suddenly, my waist tightened, and I was dragged into the car by Ah Ran.
I just wanted to ask, but I found that his face was frighteningly pale. But his whole body was tense and prepared for battle.
A feathered arrow shot straight at Ah Ran through the car window, and Ah Ran leaned back to avoid it. When he got up again, his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
What happened to him?!
I raised my hand and touched his forehead, it was hot.
"You have a fever!?"
But looking at his complexion, I'm afraid it's not just a fever.
As soon as he thought of this, the feathered arrows whizzed like raindrops and shot towards the carriage.
Ah Ran gritted his teeth, lifted his sword with one hand, pulled me up with the other, and led me out of the carriage.
Seeing the situation outside the car, my heart plummeted to the bottom:
Ah Ran's men were all gathered around the carriage, but they were obviously outnumbered.
My eyes swept over one killer after another, and suddenly stopped in front of one person.
I've seen this guy!
He was the one who originally left the Shenwu Camp in the south, that is to say...... He is Ling Niankong's person!
Ling Niankong sent them?!
I can't think much about the current situation.
Ah Ran's men are desperately trying to block it and make a way out for us.
Without hesitation, Ah Ran pulled me up and flew on a horse, and galloped wildly.
It's a good horse that quickly leaves those people behind, but that doesn't mean we're completely out of danger.
Ah Ran sat behind me, pressed his body very low, and didn't say a word, just hurrying.
I lay on my horse's back, terrified.
Looking at the posture, those people are determined to kill us, but why?
Ling Niankong: Why is he?
******
We rode our horses and attacked for two days without stopping.
I tried to persuade him to stop and rest, saying that if he continued like this, the horse would not be able to bear it. But Ah Ran was unprecedentedly stubborn, ignoring me, which made me more and more uneasy.
We have traveled a hundred miles, and now it is nearly dusk, and if we continue like this, he and I will not be able to bear it.
I just wanted to persuade again, but Ah Ran's body suddenly crooked.
My heart tightened suddenly, and I hurriedly turned around to help him, but he led me down to the horse!
He reacted and hurriedly took me into his arms and protected my head.
I heard a muffled sound, and Ah Ran fell to the ground with his body under me, and then the two of them rolled on the ground a few times before stopping.
I pressed on him, and I couldn't say a word, let alone get up.
He didn't seem to have fallen lightly, and his exhalation was a little laborious, but he still struggled to touch the back of my head and neck.
"Did you fall? Does it hurt somewhat? ”
With a sore nose, I got up from him with tears in my eyes and knelt beside him, trying to help him up. "I'm fine, are you okay?"
He pulled my hand away. "It's okay. You...... Let me take it easy. ”
Fortunately, this is a suburb, and it is all dirt roads, so the fall should not be particularly serious.
"Why are you so desperate? Why not stop and rest for a day or two? ”
I touched his forehead, it was still hot as fire.
"Five miles further on, there is Tingyang.
I sent Zhu Yu here two days ago to do errands, and I want to get here as soon as possible, so that someone can answer it. ”
I used to wonder why I didn't see Zhuyu when the accident happened, it turned out that I was sent by Ah Ran.
When I heard that the rain was nearby, I felt a little at ease.
We don't want to be surrounded by a group of people falling from the sky again!
Ah Ran struggled to sit up. Seeing his haggard appearance, I protected him behind me.
I looked vigilantly at the people surrounding us, and found that there were also familiar faces among them, still Ling Niankong's people.
I couldn't stop chilling in my body:
What exactly does he want to do?
Are you really going to kill me and Ah Ran!?
Could it be that what I said when we were separated before was a lie?
Could it be that the border assassination two days ago was just to divert the tiger from the mountain, so that Ah Ran and I could escape from the protection of everyone?
They gathered around, and just when I thought that Ah Ran and I would not escape this fate, the back of my neck hurt, and then I realized that they were not trying to kill them.
But the group of people at the border before obviously wanted us to die, could it be that Ling Niankong's people had infighting?
This thought only flashed for a moment, and I was no longer conscious.
******
When I woke up, it was the second day.
When I opened my eyes, I found myself and Ah Ran locked up in a dilapidated village house.
I was lying on a soft couch, while Ah Ran slept on the bed.
Remembering Ah Ran's condition before he fell into a coma, I hurried to the bedside to take a look.
Ah Ran frowned, his face was bloodless, and he was still feverish.
I panicked and went to the door and slammed it.
"Anyone!? Is there anyone!? ”
"Xuan'er ......"
Ah Ran called out weakly.
I hurried over.
"How do you feel? What's uncomfortable? "As he spoke, he had to take his pulse.
He dodged away, and my hand froze.
This seems to have happened before......
Before Ah Ran returned to Shengjing and locked himself in the house for five days, I saw that he was not looking good and wanted to check his pulse, so I also asked him to avoid it.
I didn't pay much attention at the time, but now it's like this.
An irrepressible wave of fear came from all directions......
I glanced at him and saw that his face was calm, and there was even a smile on his lips.
This smile has always reassured me more than anything else in the world.
But what if the laugh is fake?
What if it was just his disguise?
Trying to test my suspicions, I touched his pulse again.
Sure enough, he dodged again.
"Heh, what are you doing? I'm fine, just typhoid fever. ”
"It's just typhoid fever, why don't you let me take my pulse?"
Tears welled up in my eyes, and I looked at him closely.
He was stunned, obviously not expecting me to ask such a question.
I took advantage of his stunned gaze and pressed his pulse.
He was startled and shook off my hand as if he had been burned.
His reaction was too big, his movements were too violent, and he actually spit out a mouthful of blood, and the blood was jet black!
"Ah Ran!"
I was so shocked that I quickly took out my handkerchief and wiped it for him.
He gasped for breath and couldn't say a word.
"What the hell is wrong with you?
What are you hiding from me? ”
I shuddered, and caught his wrist again.
Ah Ran couldn't exert any more strength, so he could only compromise.
The moment I diagnosed his pulse, I felt a bolt from the blue, and suddenly I felt that I couldn't breathe, and I didn't care about tearing all the clothes on his chest......
At this moment, my mind went blank.
I...... Am I mistaken?
Ah Ran ...... How could Ah Ran have a sword wound in his chest?
The sword wounded ...... Why does it look like it's been more than a month, but it hasn't healed yet?
Why are the edges of the wound blue-gray?
Why is it so similar to the wound on Shen Yan's body back then? ……
I must have read it wrong...... I read it wrong......
However, even if the eyes are wrong, the pulse is not wrong.
His pulse is clearly the same as the one at the time of Shen Annihilation!
Obviously, it's the pulse of a dying man!
Ah Ran sighed lightly.
"Now you know why I'm hiding it from you? I knew you were going to be like this...... It's not productive..."
No, it won't! Ah Ran can still be saved!
If I hadn't missed at the beginning, Shen Yan would have been saved by me, as long as I could detoxify...... As long as it can detoxify!
The poison of the green nightmare can only be forced out by borrowing the green sword and exerting internal force.
I stumbled to the door, mobilized the only remaining 20% of the internal force in my body, and raised my palm to slash towards the door.
The two door panels suddenly shattered and scattered. There happened to be a person walking outside the door, it was Ling Niankong!
"Yan'er, what's wrong with you?"
He seemed to be stunned by my actions. I grabbed him by the collar and dragged him inside.
When I came to Ah Ran's bed, I pulled Ling Niankong closer, trembled and gritted my teeth:
"My brother...... If anything happens, I will make you worse off than dead! ”
Ling Niankong looked unaware, and his brows furrowed suspiciously.
I hated to grit my teeth and push him in Ah Ran's direction.
Only then did Ling Niankong notice Ah Ran's injury, and his face suddenly became solemn.
Feign! He's still pretending!
He has always wanted Ah Ran's life, but he has always been with me!
Ling Niankong naturally knew my intention to find him, and pulled out the scattered soul.
I grabbed his sword-holding hand.
"Don't forget what I just said!"
"If you still want to save him, let go."
I hate to bite my lip and let go.
Ling Niankong put the scattered soul flat next to Ah Ran's wound and used his internal strength.
I held Ah Ran's slightly cool hand tightly, my heart was terrified to the extreme, and my eyes were staring at Ling Niankong's scattered soul.
Ling Niankong's internal force attached to the scattered soul, forcing out the poison from Ah Ran's wound little by little, until his wound turned dark red......
