Chapter Ninety-Seven: Puzzled
After a period of chaos, fortunately, when the carriage fell, it scraped a lush towering tree at the foot of the mountain, and the horse stumbled and fell, falling heavily on the ground, and there was a big pool of blood under him, and his soul had returned to the western sky, and at this time, Lin Xiaomiao and Zhang Tianyi were caught by the huge branches of the big tree when they fell.
Finally luckily picked up a life.
Lin Xiaomiao slowly opened her eyes, it turned out that she was still alive, was it true? Lin Xiaomiao couldn't believe it, the blue sky, the green trees, the dappled glare of sunlight in the leaves, the carriage on the ground under him, and the Xianggong hanging on another branch......
"Hmm...... Okay, it hurts" The tingling sensation in her back suddenly hit, and Lin Xiaomiao couldn't help but cry out in pain.
There seemed to be a pinprick pain in his back, and when Lin Xiaomiao touched it with his hand, it was actually blood on his hand! The eye-piercing bloodstain really scared me.
"Husband! Husband! You okay? Lin Xiaomiao was in a panic and found that she was entangled in a branch and couldn't move.
"Cloud ...... Cloud peach! Where are you? ”
Hearing his wife's call, Zhang Tianyi woke up easily and opened his mouth to ask.
"I'm on the branch below you, husband!" Lin Xiaomiao replied, holding her back in unbearable pain.
"Are you okay? Are there any injuries......" Before the words fell, Zhang Tianyi spat out a mouthful of blood, and the blood splashed on the placket and the leaves beside him.
The bright red blood and the emerald green leaves were very conspicuous, and Lin Xiaomiao was so frightened that she shouted loudly at the top of her throat
"Husband! It doesn't matter much, how about you! Does it matter? ”
Blood kept pouring out of the corners of his mouth, and the placket of his chest was dyed crimson.
"Xiao Miao, you go first! Leave me alone, I may be a dying person, in case those gangsters catch up, it still matters for life......" Zhang Tianyi fainted before he finished speaking.
Perhaps it was a blow to the head, and a purple and blackened bag appeared on the side of Zhang Tianyi's head.
"Husband, I can't leave you behind! Besides, we fell off a cliff, and they probably thought we were dead, and they probably didn't think they would catch up with us in a while. Hearing her husband say this, Lin Xiaomiao hurriedly shouted.
"Husband? Husband...... How are you? Lin Xiaomiao shouted a few times, but there was no answer......
Lin Xiaomiao took a closer look at the wound on Zhang Tianyi's body, it seemed that a huge branch was inserted into his abdomen, causing Zhang Tianyi to be unable to move, and the blood kept dripping down, some fell on the leaves, and some fell on the grass, gathering into a small blood nest.
Obviously, Zhang Tianyi's injuries are much more serious than Lin Xiaomiao's.
Lin Xiaomiao struggled to break free from the entanglement of the branches with her petite and light body, followed the huge trunk to Zhang Tianyi's position, and found that her husband was already unconscious.
"Husband, husband? You wake up, you wake up. Lin Xiaomiao was so anxious that tears jumped out of her eyes, and she shook Zhang Tianyi's shoulders desperately, but he didn't even blink his eyes.
Seeing that her husband was already unconscious, thinking that she would not be able to take him down with her own strength, Lin Xiaomiao had no choice but to go down the tree to find some straw and dry branches, which were thickly piled under the tree.
Then he climbed up the tree, tentatively untied Zhang Tianyi from the branch, and landed firmly on the paved grass branch.
Lin Xiaomiao thought in her heart, she couldn't leave Zhang Tianyi, who was seriously injured, behind at the moment, and now there was no better way, so she could only find a place to hide for the time being.
In order to avoid the pursuit of the assassins, Lin Xiaomiao picked up Zhang Tianyi and looked around with difficulty, and finally found a small cave not far away, which was about a kilometer away.
Lin Xiaomiao finally felt some comfort in her heart, fortunately it was not too far, otherwise she didn't know how to carry the big man behind her.
The slender Lin Xiaomiao naturally had a very hard time carrying the big man Zhang Tianyi, and her husband was still unconscious, without the slightest subjective motivation, Lin Xiaomiao not only had to accumulate enough strength to carry his father-in-law, but also always took care of him to prevent him from staggering and falling down, so it was even more laborious, and he walked for half an hour with a distance of one kilometer.
Standing outside the cave and looking at it, the inside is not a black and swarthy piece, the entrance of the cave is wide enough or some light, look inside, some firewood rags or something, it seems to have been abandoned, it seems to be just suitable for the two to hide.
He placed his husband in a corner of the cave and bandaged the wound on his abdomen with a square handkerchief he had with him, but fortunately the wound was not deep and did not hurt his internal organs, but he bled a little.
Compared to her husband's injury, her own skin injury is nothing.
Looking at her unconscious husband lying behind her, Lin Xiaomiao felt very uncomfortable, and couldn't figure out why she was chased and killed, she was living a good life, how could she provoke unprovoked right and wrong?
If you and your husband do their part on weekdays, there shouldn't be enemies, and besides, looking at the skills of these assassins, they don't look like some reckless men in the market, but like a well-planned assassination, if it weren't for the horse stumbling off the cliff, how easy would it be to escape from these martial arts people?
However, Lin Xiaomiao didn't know where these people came from and what their purpose was, and she didn't care about spending more time guessing, the top priority at the moment was to settle her husband and then think about surviving.
After tossing for a long time, Lin Xiaomiao's hungry stomach growled, but in this wilderness, there were no ancients before and no one came after, there was not even a farmer within a radius of ten miles, and the husband was still lying in the cave, and he didn't dare to go far away, and it was a problem to fill his stomach, if there were any jackals, tigers and leopards, it was not necessary to be dragged to eat.
Lin Xiaomiao's hungry hair was dizzy and swollen, and she was in this deserted deep mountain and old forest, so she had to stand up and go out to pick some wild fruits to satisfy her stomach for the time being.
Fortunately, there are many forests here, and now that it is late summer and early autumn, the wild fruits on the trees are almost ripe. Lin Xiaomiao went out to look for some wild fruits, and checked around again, but did not find any strange birds and beasts, so she was temporarily relieved.
Before I knew it, it was dark, and the cave was also extremely cold, without any clothes to cover her body, Lin Xiaomiao was shivering from the cold, seeing that if she continued like this, she was bound to be frozen to death in the cave in the middle of the night, and her body could still last for a while after eating and drinking, but what should the unconscious husband do? In desperation, in order to survive, he could only try to drill wood to make fire.
Found some soft firewood and a thin wooden stick, Xiao Miao, who lacked survival experience in the wild, failed after many attempts, and had no choice, so he had to hug Zhang Tianyi to keep warm.
In fact, Lin Xiaomiao used her warm body to warm Zhang Tianyi's body, and in this way, the two of them hugged each other and finally survived the night.
When you are hungry, you will pick some wild fruits, and when you are thirsty, you will drink some mountain springs, the air here is fresh and pleasant, the mountain springs are clear and intoxicating, and the wild fruits are also rare and fragrant and sweet, after a few days, if it is not for the flow here, Lin Xiaomiao will fall in love here, how can you find such a clean place in the noisy market outside.
On the other side, Duanmu Heng was anxiously waiting for news from Lin Xiaomiao and his enemy Zhang Tianyi.
"How's it going?" Duanmu Heng stood in the pavilion and looked into the distance, crossed his hands behind his back, and asked sideways.
The personal guard behind him immediately retreated.
A dark shadow guard suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Fourth prince, that Lin Xiaomiao and Zhang Tianyi's carriage fell off the cliff after our pursuit." He knelt on the ground and replied.
"What? Do you tell this king again?! Duanmu Heng frowned when he heard this, turned his head and shouted.
"The minister should die, I didn't expect that Lin Xiaomiao and Zhang Tianyi's carriage fell off the cliff halfway through the pursuit, please punish the prince." He replied again, bowing his head and slamming it on the ground.
"What about the man? There are no injuries! Duanmu Heng pinched Ying Wei's chin with one hand, and the anger in his eyes was burning, as if he wanted to burn people to pieces.
"Back to the prince, the cliff is very steep, and it is an abyss, I'm afraid it's ......" Facing Duanmu Heng's fierce gaze, Shadow Guard Mingqi was too frightened to say any more, following Duanmu Heng for more than ten years, Shadow Guard Mingqi had never seen him so angry, as soon as he heard that Lin Xiaomiao had fallen off the cliff, he seemed to have changed into a different person, as if he was an angry male lion, who was about to swallow people with his bloody mouth open.
Shenqi didn't dare to provoke Duanmu Heng, who was angry.
"What are you afraid of! Say it to this king! Duanmu Heng refused to let go at all, grabbed the placket of the shadow guard's clothes, and asked aggressively.
"I'm afraid there will be an unforeseen ......," said the shadow guard timidly, kneeling on the ground, not daring to look up.
In fact, there is no need to say it in person, Duanmu Heng can also guess that the woman he loves may be crushed under the cliff.
Duanmu Heng's anger came up at once, and he scolded word by word.
"What the king commanded! I've told you no! Allow! Injure! Harm! Lin Xiaomiao! Why can't you even do this little thing! Duanmu Heng was furious when he heard this, and waved the face in his hand and shook it hard, and the shadow guard turned his head out.
Even if he has been following for many years and is a loyal personal attendant, Duanmu Heng is ruthless when he is angry. hurt his most beloved woman, and leaving him alive is already the most forgiving.
"Find it for the king! To live to see people, to die to see corpses! If anything goes wrong with her, you can come and see her! Duanmu Heng said angrily.
"Yes, lord." The shadow guard disappeared without a trace, he didn't expect the prince to care so much about this woman.
Even if he was born and died for Duanmu Heng for many years, if the shadow guard made Lin Xiaomiao have any mistakes, he Duanmu Heng would not spare him! The only way for him to survive was to find Lin Xiaomiao as soon as possible and bring her back intact.
