Chapter 054: The Road Meets the White Tiger
When a few people left, they set a fire and turned the entire inn into ashes.
Continue to hurry, because Su Xue and Wanyue didn't rest well last night, they were drowsy in the carriage today.
After another day's walk, we reached the country of Donglai through a forest, which was too uneven for the carriage to proceed.
Su Xue and Wanyue could only abandon the car and walk, so Leng Junyi and Yu Heng also had to dismount and walk.
At this time, it was still early, and several people planned to hurry through the forest and find an inn to stay in earlier.
There is no shop in front of the village in front of this forest, and I don't know what kind of danger there will be after dark.
So a few people didn't stay any longer, and only took a short break before going on the road again.
This forest is located at the boundary between Nanshuo and Donglai, and belongs to neither Nanshuo nor Donglai.
Because this place does not belong to any country, so this place is also rampant bandits, a few years ago, there were many hunters who liked to come here to hunt, but since this deep forest was occupied by bandits, those hunters rarely came.
Therefore, there are many animals in this forest, and it is said that there are also fierce animals such as tigers and lions, and these animals have basically never seen people, let alone are afraid of people.
Originally, it was still early, but after entering the forest, the towering trees were full of branches and leaves, blocking the light, and several people walking in it could not know the time at all.
Before several people entered the forest, Leng Junyi took out a few transparent bottles, which were filled with liquid. "Apply this potion to your clothes."
"What is this for?" Yu Heng took the bottle and asked curiously.
"We're going to walk through the forest, there's going to be some poisonous insects or something like that, and this potion will prevent knots from approaching." Leng Junyi replied.
After hearing this, they quickly applied the potion to all parts of their clothes, and then entered the forest.
After walking for about two hours, although the forest was a little dark and damp, some beads of sweat appeared on the foreheads of several people.
"No, the master can't walk anymore, let's rest for a while." Yu Heng, who has always been pampered, has walked for so long, and when he has gone out, he has either been in a carriage or riding a horse.
Su Xue and Wanyue were also tired and panting, wiping their foreheads with handkerchiefs from time to time.
Leng Junyi has been practicing medicine everywhere since he was a child, so this little road is nothing to him, but looking at Su Xue and Wanyue, he finally nodded: "Okay, then let's rest here for a while." ”
The happiest person is Yu Heng, as soon as Leng Junyi finished speaking, he sat directly on the ground, without any scruples about his image, to say that he used to pay the most attention to his image, but now it seems that he is really tired.
"Miss." Wanyue took out the kettle and handed it to Su Xue, she also had a dry mouth after walking for so long, but after drinking a few sips of the kettle, she felt much more comfortable.
When a few people were resting, Leng Junyi took out a pack of medicinal powder and sprinkled some around several people, these medicinal powders were to prevent poisonous insects, snakes and ants from approaching.
When he had finished spreading, he also found a place to sit down.
"Passing through this forest is coming east, I still have something to deal with, you can do it yourself." Leng Junyi's voice came.
"What? You're not with us, aren't you? Yu Heng asked in surprise, he had always thought that Leng Junyi would join them, but at this time he proposed to part ways.
Although Su Xue was a little reluctant, she also knew that finding her stepmother was her own business, and she couldn't trouble Leng Gongzi, and he had already helped her a lot.
"And when are you going to heal my sister's hand?" Yu Heng was thinking about when Su Xue's hand would recover.
But it doesn't matter if Su Xue herself arrives, anyway, after so long, she is used to it.
"Big brother, I'm fine, don't embarrass Young Master Leng." Su Xue hurriedly stopped Yu Heng and continued.
"Where do I have to embarrass him, this is obviously what he promised before." Yu Heng was afraid that Leng Junyi would really not treat Su Xue.
However, Leng Junyi is not a person who is untrustworthy: "What I said, it naturally counts, but the matter of healing has to be considered in the long run." ”
"It's good if you remember." Yu Heng replied with a smile again.
After resting for a while, the group continued to move on.
It didn't take long for Leng Junyi to stop and look around.
"What's wrong?" Seeing this, Yu Heng stepped forward and asked.
"Shhhh
So several people were silent and listened intently to the sounds around them.
"I didn't hear anything." Yu Heng listened to it for a while, but he didn't hear anything famous.
"Behind." Leng Junyi pointed in the direction he had just passed.
So they all looked in the direction he was pointing in.
Su Xue and Wanyue were weak women, and they didn't see anything but the tree, and they didn't hear any sound.
However, Yu Heng heard some movements. "It seems to be the sound of some animal, but we didn't see any animals when we first came?"
Leng Junyi's face was serious, the sound that could be heard at such a distance must be a large animal.
"Let's go." Since you know that it is a large animal, it is better to avoid it as soon as possible.
So the group quickened their pace and continued to walk forward.
"Ahh Due to the hurry, Su Xue fell and twisted her foot, and at this time the foot was so painful that she was about to lose consciousness.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Wanyue hurriedly helped Su Xue up.
"Sister, are you alright?" Yu Heng also asked with concern.
Su Xue frowned, tears of pain were blooming, and her feet couldn't move, and said, "I seem to have twisted my feet." ”
But fortunately, there is Leng Junyi, a miracle doctor, but he twisted his foot, where is it difficult to get him: "I'll take a look." ”
Yu Heng gave up a place for Leng Junyi.
Leng Junyi lifted Su Xue's feet and took off her socks, revealing a pair of jade feet, delicate and white, but the ankles were a little red and swollen.
This move made Su Xue blush, she had never shown her feet in front of a man, although Leng Junyi was to heal her at this time, but she still felt very embarrassed.
But fortunately, Yu Heng and Wanyue were concerned about her injuries at this time and didn't notice her embarrassment.
"Well, it's really twisted." Leng Junyi said calmly.
"What then?" Yu Heng was a little anxious, seeing that the voice behind him was getting closer and closer to them, if he didn't leave, maybe the animal would catch up.
"How did you fall?" Leng Junyi did not answer Yu Heng's words, but instead asked Su Xue why she fell.
Su Xue tried hard to recall the scene of the fall just now, and then said: "I accidentally stepped on a stone just now, and I accidentally just... Yes. ”
Before Su Xue finished speaking, she screamed, and at the same time, there was a sound of bones being connected.
Su Xue broke out in a cold sweat in pain, and when Wan Yue saw this, she hurriedly asked Leng Junyi, "Young Master Leng, how is Miss?" ”
"You can move and try it." Leng Junyi did not answer Wanyue directly.
After hearing this, Su Xue slowly turned her foot, and found that it didn't hurt so much, and she could still move, she knew that her foot had been picked up by Leng Junyi: "Thank you, Young Master Leng." ”
After finishing speaking, she was about to get up, and Wan Yue also hurriedly helped her up.
"Although my feet are connected, I can't walk on the ground immediately, and it will take a day or two." When Su Xue was about to get down, Leng Junyi's voice remembered again.
Su Xue was stunned, can't walk on the ground? But now they're still on their way.
"Sister, don't be afraid, my brother carries you." After Yu Heng finished speaking, he half-squatted so that Su Xue could get on his back.
Although Su Xue regards Yu Heng as her brother, after all, there is a difference between men and women, how can a girl's family let a man carry it? But there is no other way in the situation at this time.
Wanyue is also a weak woman, and she can't carry Su Xue.
"Hurry up, or it'll be too late." Yu Heng urged, seeing the voice behind him getting closer and closer.
At this time, they could already faintly hear the roar of a tiger, and it seemed that there were still footsteps of people?
At this time, even Su Xue and Wanyue heard it, and they didn't hesitate at the moment.
"I'll come." When Su Xue was about to approach Yu Heng, Leng Junyi directly pushed him away, and he half-squatted in front of Su Xue.
Yu Heng was replaced by Leng Junyi, which made no difference to Su Xue, so he didn't hesitate and immediately put on his back.
Carrying Su Xue, several people walked forward quickly, Su Xue's body on Yu Heng's back was a little stiff at first, she had never approached a man so closely, looking at his black hair, exuding a fragrance, which made her a little uneasy.
Because Leng Junyi was carrying Su Xue on his back, the speed was not as fast as before, and at this time, they vaguely heard someone shouting for help behind them.
"Is there someone shouting for help in the back?" Although Su Xue has no martial arts and her hearing is not as good as Leng Junyi and Yu Heng, she can still hear someone shouting at this time.
"Hey, don't worry about it, let's go quickly." Yu Heng said as he walked, anyway, they didn't know that person, so they couldn't take the risk to save him.
But the man behind didn't know if he was too eager to survive, so he ran desperately at the moment, and also saw Leng Junyi in front of him.
"Brother Tai in front, help."
But Leng Junyi didn't seem to hear it, not only did they not save the man, but they walked faster and faster.
Seeing this, the man was a little anxious, he had been chased by the white tiger for so long, and he finally saw a few people, and finally saw hope, if he ran down and was not bitten to death by the tiger, he would also be tired to death: "Brother Tai in front, you can't see death without saving it." ”
But a few people remained unmoved.
However, the speed of the man's running suddenly increased, and it didn't take long to catch up with a few people, and now they just wanted to stand by and watch.
"Hey, why are you like this, you provoked this tiger yourself, and you came to trouble us." Yu Heng was very dissatisfied.
This is a tiger, it can bite people to death in one bite, and this tiger looks like it hasn't eaten for a long time, and this tiger is even more ferocious.
"Brother Tai, you can't say that, saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, not to mention that we met here, it can be regarded as fate." Although the man was a little weak-hearted, he had no choice but to survive.
"Hey, you really killed me."
At this time, Leng Junyi put Su Xue down and asked Juan Yue to take care of her.
The three men faced a white tiger, and it was strange to say that the man had been chased by the tiger for so long, and his face was not red or out of breath at this time.
Leng Junyi glanced at the man, who was about twenty years old, wearing a light blue shirt and holding a long sword.
It seems that this person is not simple, but the main thing at the moment is to solve the tiger in front of him first.
