Chapter 34: A Unique Invitation from the Mysterious Lady

"Mr. Karl!"

Just when Carl couldn't stop and was about to collide with the speeding carriage, little Lucy couldn't help but be shocked, and her spirit, which had already been tense because of the repeated changes, suddenly broke through a boundary.

Peng!

A sound like a leather rope breaking, like ice breaking, sounded in little Lucy's head.

In an instant, little Lucy felt that she had suddenly broken through some kind of restraint, and the world slowed down a hundred and ten times.

She could clearly see that Mr. Karl was half-vacating, slowly but surely slamming into the galloping carriage, she could see the galloping carriage, the driver of the car was just raising his whip, she could see the flying dust, it was slowly flying, she could see the strong wind brought by the carriage, it was blowing the ends of Mr. Karl's hair, and she could see the horses pulling the cart, and the mane fluttering in the wind.

All the movements between heaven and earth slowed down in her vision.

Before she knew it, reptile-like vertical pupils appeared in her eyes, suddenly exuding the majesty of a dragon.

".hiss......"

As if frightened, the galloping horse threw its neck back, its front hooves raised high, its eyes rolled up, and neighed in horror as it pulled a long rut out of the road before it stopped under the desperate control of the coachman.

At the moment when he almost collided with the carriage, Carl only felt his body sink, and was dragged back by a sudden surge of force, which was comparable to passing the speeding carriage.

"Mr. Karl, are you alright?"

Little Lucy hurriedly supported Carl, who was stumbling back, and asked with concern.

"I'm fine......"

Frightened, Carl, who had just reacted, was about to comfort little Lucy, but suddenly found that his left arm suddenly hurt in his heart!

"Ah, Mr. Karl, you bleed!"

Little Lucy couldn't help but exclaim, Carl's lowered left hand suddenly flowed blood, although she had just pulled away from Mr. Carl in time and avoided the tragedy of colliding head-on with the carriage, but she still didn't completely dodge, Mr. Carl's left hand still rubbed against the carriage.

"It's okay, it's okay!"

Carl squeezed out two smiles and tried to soothe little Lucy, but the pain in his left hand turned his smile into a bitter smile.

Little Lucy hurriedly pulled Karl's sleeve, but saw that Carl's left arm had been rubbed into a big gap, and bright red blood was constantly gushing out of the wound.

"How do you walk?"

At this moment, the carriage driver who had just desperately controlled the frightened horse and narrowly failed to rush to the rape field beside the road turned around angrily and roared angrily.

"Don't you have long eyes? Look for death, don't you see our carriage coming?"

The coachman was a burly old man with tall cheekbones and wide eyes, glaring angrily at Carl and Lucy.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Although Carl was injured because of this, he almost crashed into the carriage, it was indeed their fault for rushing to the road, no wonder others, so little Lucy hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, we were in a hurry and didn't notice you coming!"

"Humph!"

The burly coachman snorted coldly and was about to speak, when he heard a gentle voice suddenly coming from the carriage.

"Thom, what's going on out there? Is anyone hurt?"

The voice was gentle and soft, and unconsciously swept away the anger in the driver's heart.

"Madame!"

The coachman bowed slightly and reported to the lady in the carriage: "When the carriage was driving just now, two children rushed from the side and almost crashed into the carriage!"

The curtain slowly lifted, revealing an arm with long gloves of black lace and a beautiful face with a black veil. Her long, pale blonde hair was pulled up high, and the brim of her wide lady's hat was embellished with a beautiful peacock tail feather and a soft silk ribbon.

The black gauze scarf hanging down the brim of her hat covers the bridge of her nose and eyes just right, revealing only a pretty nose and a perfect small mouth, full of a different kind of charm and mystery.

In terms of beauty, she may not be the most beautiful woman Carl has ever seen, but compared with Princess Alicia and the Holy Maiden of Heavenly Song, this woman seems more mature and full of mature charm unique to women.

She wore a mysterious black silk dress, with a high collar that exposed her white and pink neck, and only a pearl necklace on it. The round pearl, the soft luster and her ivory-like white skin are so harmonious, making her whole person like a pearl, exuding a soft and warm motherhood.

Carl could feel the curiosity and inquiry in her gaze, and seemed to pause a little Lucy. However, when he saw the injury on Carl's arm, he still gently covered his mouth with his hand, revealing a slightly surprised expression.

"Do you need any help, kids?"

The beautiful lady said softly, with a hint of apology in her gentle tone, as warm as water, and people couldn't help but feel a warm feeling of being cared for by her sister and mother.

"Greetings, beautiful lady!"

Although his arm was burning and his heart hurt, Carl still smiled, and according to the etiquette of this world, he politely made a gentleman's salute, and then said, "If possible, please give me a pot of water!"

Carl smiled and pointed to the deep wound on his arm, explaining, "If the wound is too deep, it may be infected by germs or something, so it's best to clean the wound with water." Of course, it would be even better if there was extracted alcohol or spirits to cleanse it! High-purity alcohol can kill many pathogenic factors and reduce the probability of wound infection!"

Carl didn't know if there were viruses and bacteria in this world, but he tried to speak as clearly as possible, using words like pathogenic agents to refer to germs.

Sure enough, Carl's simple and vivid explanation made the beautiful lady's eyes light up, and she asked with a slight surprise: "You are a doctor?"

"No!"

Carl shook his head and denied, "I just know some medical knowledge!"

"Then you must be a learned man!"

The corners of the beautiful lady's mouth curled slightly, revealing a sweet smile, and said: "Please come up and let me help you take care of the wound, I have iodine wine here, and clean gauze!"

Carl couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't expect that this beautiful lady still had medical supplies such as iodine wine and gauze on the car, and he didn't expect that this beautiful lady would invite him to the carriage.

You know, this is still a very conservative era, although the private life of the aristocracy is very erosive and debauched in private, but on the surface it still maintains a polite moral standard, and it is undoubtedly a very private thing for men and women to share a carriage in a small space.

Being invited by a beautiful woman to share a carriage often has a different meaning.
