Chapter 22: The Price of Rescue

Scooping a handful of clear spring into the throat is extremely refreshing, and the tiredness of the body disappears at this moment.

The stream reflected Ye Xiu's figure, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, tall and mighty, and his tendons and flesh were about to tear his clothes.

"Riding a horse and galloping all night, Xiao Wu, why don't you come to drink spring water and let your body relax?"

"Whoop, whoop!" The war horse had spirituality, standing on the shore and eating the grass, making a sound that seemed to agree.

"Thank you for the rescue, I am concerned about the safety of the commander at the moment, but my own strength is low, so please help me." Xiao Wu said respectfully.

With a wave of his hand, Ye Xiu patted his chest and signaled that this matter was on him.

Xiao Wu's face turned red, and he stopped talking, as if there was something unspeakable.

As soon as he said it, Ye Xiu signaled the other party not to be restrained, a dignified seven-foot man, and Hugh to be a daughter.

"Engong, the conditions of the rescue commander are very harsh, even if you are strong in martial arts, you may not be able to do it."

After hearing Xiao Wu's words, Ye Xiu laughed, "You just lead me forward, if you don't try, how do you know that I can't do it?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Wu nodded, feeling that there was some truth in his words, and under his guidance, the two slowly went deeper into the fallen area.

In fact, the history of the fallen area is long, and there is a vast grassland in this land, where the grass grows and warblers fly, and the cattle and sheep are flocked.

But since the war spread to this place decades ago, the climate here has begun to change unpredictably, often pouring heavy rain, and hundreds of Ze countries have appeared on the grasslands.

Whenever a living creature enters it, it will be trapped in the quagmire, and even if it is a warrior and has the strength of dozens of fierce horses, it will be difficult to break free.

According to ancient legends, this grassland has been blood-blooded, rejected by the benevolent gods, and turned into a kingdom that devours all offenders.

The source of the fallen area, Ye Xiu has been exploring for so many days, so he has naturally heard of it, and now with Xiao Wu as a guide, it can save a lot of trouble.

What worries Xiao Wu is that most of the troops led by the commander have fallen into the swamp, and if they want to rescue them all, it is not easy for everyone to reach the peak.

In fact, he didn't know that Ye Xiu's longitudinal cloud ladder had already returned to its true nature and reached the highest level of body law, if Ye Xiu made a move, all difficulties would be solved.

……

At the same time, after reading the medicine book, Ling Daochang picked up the medicine pestle and grinded the Chinese medicine.

Add dozens of healing herbs, wait until completely turned into powder, and mix well.

When I walked into an inner room, I saw Junbao wearing a bloody coat, lying on a hospital bed, and his breath was weak.

Seeing this, Ling Daochang sighed at Liu Huan'er on the side, "Apply this to his wound, the medicine is very strong." ”

Liu Huan'er was surprised, when will I do this, in Liu's mansion before, it was all maids and servants waiting for her.

This rude request is still to do such a shameful thing, let her be a woman, to drug a strange man, not to mention that the two sides are still inseparable enemies.

"Aggrieved, extremely aggrieved, let me change the dressing for him."

The space above the earthen kang was narrow and could not accommodate three people, so Liu Huan'er finally squeezed in front of Junbao.

Deliberately sprinkling the powder on the wound, she said to Junbao: "You bear with me, mine is very big." ”

Junbao was pale, shaped like a withered tree, and sat and lay on the earthen kang.

"Why didn't he react at all?"

Ling Daochang looked surprised, curious about this phenomenon: "What's going on?" ”

Putting down the medicine bowl, he stepped forward, wanting to observe Junbao's condition and then consider the dosage of medicine.

"Look at me, how can it be?"

Picking up a small mallet, Ling Daochang lifted Junbao's knee and began to tap, testing the knee jump reflex.

But as soon as he finished tapping his knee joint, Junbao instinctively kicked forward, kicking Ling Daochang's lower body.

"Click!" Ling Daochang immediately covered his crotch and jumped on the spot.

"It hurts, it hurts!"

Junbao was stunned and turned his head: "You are in pain, right?" Bear with me. ”

"Daoist Ling, what do you think is wrong with him?"

Liu Huan'er turned around, estimating that the other party would not be able to do anything in the future, gloating in her heart, and her mood suddenly became happy.

"It may have been a great blow, after all, the chivalrous person in the Buddha Laughing Building died tragically, and even his beloved Qiu Xue was not saved."

"Woohoo!"

Looking up, the vast prairie is endless, and there are soaked black and shiny grass roots everywhere, and if you step on it, you will step on the puddle and splash the stagnant water.

The two dismounted and were about to go to the swamp, each with a pestle and a cane, and began to wade through the swamp, ready to find someone.

"Poof, poof!"

This muddy swamp is really difficult to walk, and I don't know what happened to the commander, isn't it fragrant to go to the post well?

"Xiao Wu, how long will it take to go this time?"

"At the current pace, it will take about two hours." Xiao Wu wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said seriously.

Walking on the grass and encountering a swamp, the crutches in this hand have a miraculous effect, it can explore the way, explore the reality of the grass in front of it, reduce the risk, and save Ye Xiu's physical strength.

Two hours later, they finally reached their destination, and the two breathed a sigh of relief.

The scene in front of me was indeed eerie, dozens of people were trapped in the swamp, and two people were on the sidelines, ready to rescue.

At the beginning, the commander and his party were persecuted by Liu Jin's people and accidentally fled into this fallen area.

At first, one person fell into the swamp, and the commander ordered everyone to rescue him, which caused most of them to fall into the swamp.

Hearing what had happened, he was speechless.

It's like a gourd baby saving grandpa, one after another.

Ye Xiu was powerless to complain in his heart, first see the surrounding environment clearly, and then he was seen by the other two as soon as he got closer.

"Xiao Wu, this is Lord Li who is stationed in Fancheng, and he has reached the pinnacle of his skills, and he heard that our Fan Commander is in danger, so he specially rushed to the rescue."

The brocade-clothed guard on the shore flattered forward, and after turning his head, he showed disdain for Ye Xiu and the others.

At this time, Xiao Wu faced the commander and said: "I went to look for help this time, and met the Khitan cavalry who was rescued by this chivalrous man, and I heard that you were in trouble, so he specially came to help." ”

Xiao Wu was about to continue to introduce Ye Xiu, but was unexpectedly interrupted by the previous person.

"In these years, people's hearts are not ancient, and anyone dares to call him a chivalrous warrior, but even if he has high martial arts, in this swamp, who can be taller than Master Li.

I know that you are eager to make meritorious contributions, but with Master Li here, everything can naturally be solved, so you can just stand aside and watch. ”

As soon as he wanted to refute, Xiao Wu was stopped by Ye Xiu and signaled to wait and see the other party's methods first.

The conductor was now in the mire, pale and depressed, and cast a supplicant look at them.

Ye Xiu looked around, the terrain of this swamp was complicated, if it weren't for the physical method to return to the basics, it would be difficult to borrow strength from the swamp to rescue these dozens of people.

He thought in his heart: "That Master Li has extraordinary skills, if he strikes first, he can just test the truth and reality." ”

After a while, Master Li motioned to the previous person to assist him and rescue the commander together, fearing that Ye Xiu and the two would take the credit, so he simply left them aside.

"Whoop, whoop!"

As soon as Master Li used his technique, the swamp resonated and the power of the fall weakened.

At the same time, the commander's sluggish eyes had a few more glimmers of brilliance and looked towards the shore.

"Plop knock, plop knock!"

Master Li continued to exert his body technique, stepping on the inexplicable force of fall in Middle-earth, causing him to let out a miserable scream, and the previous person lost his footing and fell into the swamp.

"How so?" The commander's face immediately turned pale, and the hope that had just been ignited in his heart was immediately extinguished.

The skin soaked in the swamp was already sores and rotten, if it weren't for the fact that he was a martial artist with a good body, he would have died of poison a long time ago, following in the footsteps of several subordinates.

Unable to save people, Lord Li, who accidentally fell into the swamp, was no longer calm and relaxed at this time.

He spoke: "This chivalrous man, I just heard that you are Xiao Wu's life-saving benefactor, can you save us and help us get out of the swamp." ”
