Chapter 36: The Cliff in Distress
The carriage fell down the mountain road quickly, but fortunately there was a waterhole under the mountain road, and neither Murong Lin nor Feng Xiaoyue were injured.
The first thing Murong Lin did when he noticed that he had fallen into the water was to hurry up and find Feng Xiaoyue. Feng Xiaoyue was choked and churned in the water room. Murong Lin hurriedly hugged her, and the carriage sank all the way, so that they could not swim up.
The carriage sank all the way to the bottom of the water, and was smashed to pieces when it hit a boulder. A broken axle was hit and bounced, Feng Xiaoyue couldn't move in half a consciousness, and Murong Lin used his own arm to block it for her in order to protect her.
Feng Xiaoyue saw a few wisps of blood in the water, and suddenly sobered up a lot, and looked at Murong Lin in surprise. Murong Lin swam ashore with her, and lay on his side panting.
"You're hurt." Feng Xiaoyue hurriedly tore off the hem of her clothes to bandage him, and there was no lack of concern in her tone.
Murong Lin was happy in his heart, and said with a light smile: "It's better to be out of the way than to hurt you." ”
Simply used a strip of cloth to stop Murong Lin's bleeding, but without medicine, the wound would easily become infected and suppurated.
Feng Xiaoyue felt uncomfortable when she saw it, and propped her knees up: "I'll go find medicine for you." ”
Murong Lin hurriedly pulled her: "I don't have anything to do, you don't have to go, the terrain here is complicated, and it is easy to get hurt." ”
"I'm fine, you're waiting for me here." Feng Xiaoyue wiped the water droplets on her face, lifted the damp and weight-gaining skirt, and carefully left the waterhole.
It's close to the water source, and many plants grow well, covering the land so thickly that it's hard to see whether it's the ground or the small beach below.
Feng Xiaoyue picked up a stick, squatted on a boulder, and tested it with a stick before getting down. According to the appearance of the medicine she was injured and Murong Lin found before, Feng Xiaoyue also found some plantain. It's just that next to the plantain, there are some chewed white bones, which look like wild beasts cannibalism.
With a sense of foreboding in her heart, Feng Xiaoyue wrapped up the plantain in her hand and hurriedly returned to Murong Lin's side.
"You're still hurt, so don't do these things." Feng Xiaoyue had just come back when she saw Murong Lin picking up some dry wood from tree bark and piling it on the stones to build a small mountain.
"It's just a small injury, it's not useless, you don't have to be so careful." Murong Lin smiled at her, took out two flints, and squatted next to the firewood to knock on them.
"What are you doing here?" Feng Xiaoyue turned around and put the plantain in water to wash.
"It's getting late now, and it's inevitable that wild beasts will come out, so light a fire and keep warm by the way." Murong Lin said, and on a dry and loose firewood, there was just a little firework.
Murong Lin added another small branch, and the fire gradually ignited. Feng Xiaoyue smashed the plantain with a stone, took Murong Lin's hand, and carefully removed the tightly wrapped strip of cloth for him.
The cloth strip carried the flesh that had just been stuck to the blood, and the pain made Murong Lin gasp, and Feng Xiaoyue listened, her hands trembled a little.
"You bear with me, you'll be fine soon."
Murong Lin couldn't help but laugh, and he didn't dare to make a sound again, after Feng Xiaoyue carefully cleaned his wound and bandaged it with herbs, a layer of fine sweat had already appeared on Murong Lin's forehead.
Feng Xiaoyue exhaled with relief, and took out her handkerchief to wipe his sweat. When the two looked at each other, Feng Xiaoyue hurriedly turned her face away, sat by the fire, and added firewood to it one by one.
Murong Lin also wanted to sit down, but accidentally found that the bloody strip of cloth that had just been replaced was gone. The alarm bell suddenly sounded in his heart, and when he turned his head again, a huge mouse was coming out of the grass and running towards Feng Xiaoyue quickly.
He hurried over and flew up with a kick that kicked the rat to death on the rock. Feng Xiaoyue was taken aback, "What kind of monster is this?" ”
Feng Xiaoyue, who had never seen such a big mouse, suddenly turned a few degrees white, and as soon as the mouse died, two pairs of glowing eyes suddenly appeared in the nearby grass, staring at Feng Xiaoyue and Murong Lin on the edge of this gradually darkening pool.
"They're afraid of water, so stay away."
Murong Lin protected Feng Xiaoyue and retreated, a mouse saw the right time and pounced, Murong Lin wanted to kick it again, but the mouse jumped to the left and actually dodged. The other came out, both of which looked much larger and more sensitive than the previous rats.
Murong Lin casually picked up a piece of firewood and tried to drive the two rats away. The firewood hit the rats, but they still flew back and forth as if they didn't feel it.
And Murong Lin's wound was split open again because of the force of his arm. The extremely fishy smell of blood aroused the blood of the rats even more. Feng Xiaoyue could see the disgusting saliva dripping from the corners of their mouths through the flickering firelight.
Firelight? Feng Xiaoyue looked at the fire, and while Murong Lin was confronting the two big rats, she ran over to pick up a burning branch, and then threw a handful of dry bark at the mice. The rat was attacked, and turned to attack Feng Xiaoyue with a hoarse grin, Murong Lin looked back nervously, only to see a branch with fire cut through the darkness, instantly igniting the bark around the mouse.
The flames splashed the flesh of the rats, and they fled in fright. Murong Lin walked up to Feng Xiaoyue and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" ”
Before Feng Xiaoyue could answer, she saw Murong Lin sweating profusely, his face was flushed, and he couldn't stand up, so he fell down. Feng Xiaoyue hurriedly supported him, feeling the hot heat on his forehead, and suddenly panicked in his heart: "He is infected with a wound, and now he actually has a fever." ”
Moved Murong Lin to the fire and let the flames dry the damp clothes on his body, Feng Xiaoyue stayed by his side, constantly wetting the handkerchief and putting it on his forehead, and was busy until late at night.
On the other side, Murong Xi, the King of Han, sent spies beside Feng Xiaoyue to report, and Feng Xiaoyue and Murong Lin fell into the cliff together.
"There's a lot going on around her." Murong Xi sighed and hurriedly sent people to search for them at the foot of the mountain, and it was not until dawn that they found the sleeping two by the waterhole.
Feng Xiaoyue woke up and saw Murong Xi, and immediately became vigilant: "Why did you find this." "Even King Li's people haven't been found yet, how can Murong Xi know where they are.
"The princess wants to cross the river and tear down the bridge? I came to you with good intentions, do you treat your life-savers with such an attitude? Murong Xi lowered his eyes to look at her.
Feng Xiaoyue got up by herself and helped Murong Lin up: "I don't care how you know, in short, thank you this time." ”
"There's a carriage outside, and my men will take you home." Murong Xi looked at her distant back and couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth. Seeing through it without saying it, she is a little interesting, and it is not in vain that the king of this king has to save them so much.
