Chapter 316: Commitment
Chapter 316 Commitment
When the morning dawned, the mountains in the south of Lanzhou woke up from the cold of the night, and all kinds of sounds began to sound in the mountains and forests, including the roar of beasts, the chirping of birds, the breeze blowing the leaves, and the mountain streams flowing through. The white mist had not yet dissipated, wafting between the undulating peaks, and even the air seemed to be a little moist.
The same is true in the mountain stream, some movement can be heard from a distance, but perhaps because this cave was originally inhabited by a fierce beast, so there are no mountain beast poisonous insects leaning over, and the most you can see is a few big trees nearby, one or two squirrels jumping and chasing, adding a bit of vitality to this place.
Shen Shi sat at the entrance of the cave, looking at the sky that was slowly brightening, and looked into the distance in silence. After a while, suddenly there was a ** sound from the cave behind him, with a hint of tiredness and pain in the voice, Shen Shi immediately turned around, and saw that Xu Xueying, who was lying on the ground, moved, and it seemed that when he was about to wake up, he wanted to turn over in his sleep but pulled the wound, and immediately snorted in pain.
Her body was covered with a Shen Shi shirt, her hair was messy, and her face looked pale, but it was better than last night, at least her lips were a little ruddy. When Shen Shi walked over quickly and sat down beside her, Xu Xueying had already opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Shen Shi's concerned gaze.
"Brother Shen......" she laughed and called softly.
Shen Shi saw Xu Xueying's body moving slightly, as if he wanted to get up, and hurriedly reached out to press her shoulder, and said, "You have an injury on your body, and you only picked up a life last night, and it is not appropriate to move now, be obedient, lie down and don't move." ”
Xu Xueying was pressed by him like this, and her body stopped moving, compared with last night, the man who was close at the moment seemed to give her a vaguely different feeling, so she quickly lay back honestly. Shen Shi sat beside her and carefully examined her face for a while, and saw that Xu Xueying's complexion was indeed much better than last night's miserable and dying appearance, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said, "Fortunately, it seems that the pill I gave you has worked." ”
Xu Xueying still looked a little weak, but when she heard this, she still smiled and said, "That's certain, Brother Shen, your elixir is the elixir of Lingxiao Sect." ”
Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, and then thought that among the several elixirs he used last night, some of them were indeed refined by Zhong Qinglu for himself. But perhaps in the future, there will be no more such elixirs. He shook his head, shook off the thoughts, and said, "Are you feeling better?"
Xu Xueying pursed her lips, looked at him, and then said softly:
"It hurts!"
Shen Shi was silent when he heard this, and then he had to comfort him gently: "This is also no way, you are so seriously injured, of course you have to suffer some hardships." But now that these elixirs have an effect, then you will get better soon, don't be afraid. ”
Xu Xueying lowered her head slightly, glanced at her body covered by Shen Shi's clothes, and after being silent for a moment, she said, "Brother Shen, I want to see the wound." ”
Shen Shi shook his head and said: "What's so good about the wound, it will get better sooner or later anyway, besides, I'll help you bandage it, don't look at it, be good, rest well......"
Xu Xueying bit her lip, and her somewhat pale face suddenly seemed a little stubborn, and said, "I want to take a look." ”
Shen Shi sighed, and wanted to persuade a few more words, but when he saw Xu Xueying's gaze, he only felt that there was a little persistence in his eyes, so he had to smile bitterly, stretched out his hand to hug her shoulder, and then carefully helped her to sit up, and finally leaned on his body.
Although Shen Shi had been extremely careful and gentle in this series of movements, Xu Xueying's face still had a trace of pain in the middle, but this time maybe she was afraid that it would affect Shen Shi, so she gritted her teeth and actually endured it.
After she sat down, Shen Shi glanced at Xu Xueying's pale but beautiful face, and then half-hugged Xu Xueying's body with one hand to prevent her from slipping, and gently pulled away the clothes on her body with the other hand.
Xu Xueying's eyes immediately looked down, and she saw that the dress she wore last night was still on her body, and she could vaguely see some blood stains on it. In the chest and abdomen where the wound was located, there was a piece of clothing missing, obviously when Shen Shi was helping her deal with the wound last night, he cut off all the clothes that were too bloody and replaced them with a few white cloth belts that were properly tied to the wound.
The white cloth covered the wound, but a lot of white and smooth skin could still be seen on the edge of the cloth, which was the young girl's carcass/body, Xu Xueying's cheeks suddenly had a burst of redness, but she didn't say anything, just bit her lip and twisted her head slightly.
Shen Shi saw Xu Xueying's appearance in his eyes, and felt a little embarrassed at this moment, after coughing dryly, he hurriedly washed the shirt and covered Xu Xueying's body, and then said in a low voice: "Xiaoying, you were too seriously injured last night, I had to rush to save you, and I have no intention of taking advantage of you......"
"I know. Xu Xueying leaned on his chest, and suddenly interrupted him softly, saying, "Brother Shen, I don't blame you. You saved my life, and it's too late for me to thank you. ”
Shen Shi nodded, seeing that Xu Xueying's spirit was still good, and her face seemed to be a little more ruddy after sitting up, so he no longer urged her to lie down, let her lean on her body, and then said: "I don't have women's clothes on me, I can only do this now, when your injuries are a little better, we will leave here, pass by some towns and buy a dress for you." ”
"Hmm......" Xu Xueying agreed, but it seemed that her attention was not on this, her eyes were still looking at her chest and abdomen intentionally or unintentionally, and after a while, she only heard her say faintly: "Brother Shen, did you say that in the future, this place on my body will have an ugly scar that will never be erased?"
Shen Shi was silent for a moment, wanting to comfort this girl, but when he thought of the hideous wound he saw last night, and in the end, in order to stop the bleeding and save his life, he had to directly use the fireball technique to burn his skin at the critical moment, so that the possibility of leaving a scar in the future was almost inevitable.
didn't hear Shen Shi's answer, Xu Xueying glanced at him sideways, his face was a little gloomy, Shen Shi couldn't bear it for some reason, and after hesitating for a moment, he said:
"Xiaoying, I won't hide it from you, you were seriously injured this time, and it is indeed possible to leave wound scars, and it is estimated that it is not small. But you don't have to worry too much, there are many mysteries and spiritual materials in this world, and as far as I know, there are some miracle medicines that can eliminate scars. When this time is over, I promise you that I will find it for you, okay?"
Xu Xueying raised her head, looked at him deeply, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then nodded heavily, and said:
"Okay!"
