Chapter 103: Healing
The speed at which the rainbow door closed was much slower than expected, so that a large number of undead beasts rushed out of the rainbow gate, and the high-level beasts were more capable and took the lead in breaking out of the rainbow gate.
In the chaos of fleeing, Menes jumped on a deserted war horse and ran with all her might, and the godhead of her mummified king was also fading, and she was even more powerless to stop the attack of the undead beast.
Menes' legions were now scattered and fled, completely out of formation, and the soldiers who did not grab the horses could only wait for death, and the two-legged humans could not outrun the undead beasts.
Menes also took care of so much, and fled south on horseback, and Yunia crawled on the ground and cried, with a feathered arrow stuck in her leg, and a skeleton rushed over and opened her mouth to bite down, and Menes bent her bow and shot an arrow, piercing the skeleton monster's Kaba heart.
Riding his horse and galloping over, he bent down and picked up Yunia with his hand, put her on the horse, and the two of them rode away quickly.
A nine-winged chicken flapped its wings and followed behind, a soldier who fled frantically was caught by the chicken and fell to the ground, blood was all over the ground, the soldier endured the pain, and before he died, he lay on the ground and threw the spear in his hand to rush towards the chicken, the chicken suddenly flew to Menis's back, Menes had already prepared, just when the chicken was about to bite, a return pistol directly pierced the chicken's chest, and the chicken fell to the ground.
Menes threw away his spear, rode his horse and galloped, and after galloping all the way, he finally shook off the pursuit of the undead beast, and then he felt a damp heat in his waist and eyes, and he touched it with his hand and was full of blood.
The spear sliced diagonally through the muscles of Menes' waist, and the flesh was turned out, injuring Yunia who was sitting in front of her.
Yunia was injured and bleeding too much and was too weak to speak, so she could only lie on the horse's back, Menis endured the pain and got off the horse, and simply bandaged the two, and then got on the horse and let the horse rein without a goal.
It has been more than three years and almost four years since Menes came to this world, but she has not had much time to enter the desert, and every time she enters the desert, she follows the team, so Menes does not have enough experience in the two things of finding the direction of the desert and finding water sources.
The only thing that could tell the direction now was the sun, Menes remembered that the tavern was in the southeast direction, so she went along the southeast direction, but soon got lost, and the two of them walked for three days under the scorching sun and still did not find the tavern, normally it only takes one day to reach the tavern, and now it is obvious that they have walked.
Menes and Yunia's wounds are beginning to infect, fortunately, Menes is a demigod, this level of infection has the ability to heal itself, it shouldn't be fatal, but Yunia is hard to say, the water she carries with her is about to run out, and if you don't find water and food, I'm afraid there is only a dead end.
The horse also completely collapsed under the heavy pressure, and Menes had no choice but to carry Yunia on foot.
Two days later, Menes was lucky enough to find an oasis, small one sandwiched between two rocky cliffs, with a pool of crystal clear water.
Menis held Yunia in her arms and poured the spring water in her hand on her thirsty and cracked lips, and Yunia's lips moved slightly to make a slight sound, and the clear and sweet spring water injected a trace of life into Yunia.
Yunia's injuries were more serious, mainly due to fever and weakness caused by wound infection, and Menes had no way to treat it, so she could only take off her clothes and dip them in water and put them on her forehead to cool down, and the rest depended on the will of God.
After a short rest, Menes began to build a temporary shelter, it seems that he can only recuperate here and cannot move forward, where there is a water source, there will be wild beasts, there will be water and food to live for a while, waiting for rescue, the other team members will always be able to escape, they will definitely come back to find Menes, even if they can't find it for a while, the spring water in the desert is rare, and there will definitely be undead hunters or caravans coming.
The fact that Menes soon found a broken clay pot in the oasis, half-broken but barely functional, was a sign of human activity.
The temporary shelter was built with reeds and rattan around the spring, and a little mud was smeared on it, and the hot and dry desert quickly dried the soil, and a small shack was barely usable for two people, as long as it could shade the vicious sun.
At dusk, a herd of desert antelopes came to the oasis to drink, Menes knocked down a small antelope with one arrow, and the others scattered and ran in all directions, and when they returned to the oasis to drink again, Menes was already enjoying the unfortunate antelope meat.
The meat of the little antelope was very tender, Menes cut it into small pieces, boiled it in a broken clay pot, and simply roasted it directly and ate it by himself, he had not eaten meat for many days, and Menes ate half of the antelope in one go.
Yunia was still in a high fever, Menes helped her to pour broth into her mouth little by little, after eating the food, Yunia's spirit seemed to be a little better, occasionally opened her eyes to look at Menes, muttering words she didn't understand.
The bloody battle in the City of the Dead and the trek in the desert these days have made Menes feel embarrassed all over her body, and after eating and taking advantage of the night, she simply bathes in the spring water.
Yunia entered a coma again, her body temperature was still very high, Menes was helpless, the only thing she could do was to keep changing the water to cool down.
But Yunia's body temperature was still very high, and in the middle of the night, Menes was sweating in a hurry, and finally there was no way to simply carry her to the spring and wipe her body with a damp cloth.
Menes was a little unnatural seduced by the white and creamy skin in the moonlight, and the excitement in her heart pulled the wound with bursts of pain, and Menes grinned and laughed at herself, "When is this, there is still this thought, beast!"
Under the cold spring water, Yunia's body temperature dropped slightly, but she was still unconscious.
Large carnivores are rare in the desert, so don't worry too much, besides, it is more than enough to deal with ordinary beasts with the godhead of Menes Funeral, but the most dangerous scorpion in the desert really needs to be especially careful, this is a bite is terrible, the godhead of the King of Menes Mummies is fire and poison, Yunia may as well be poisonous!
Sure enough, a poisonous scorpion was caught at the door of the shack early in the morning, but fortunately this poisonous scorpion has a certain anti-inflammatory and anti-venomous effect.
Yunia was still in a semi-comatose and showed no signs of improvement, so Menes smeared the prepared potion on Yunia's wound as Gua had done.
Menes recovered quickly, and she was basically recovered in just a few days, and Yunia had also improved slightly since taking the scorpion medicine, and finally came to her senses on the morning of the third day.
Menes was busy boiling the broth, and Yunia lay on the ground and looked at Menes and whispered, "Where are we?
Menes heard the voice, smiled and turned her head and said, "Hey, are you awake?" ”
"So we're still alive?" Yunia let out a slight voice.
"Yes, alive, I found an oasis, and lo and behold, there is fish soup to drink today. Menes walked over to Yunia with the clay pot.
Stretched out her left hand to help Yunia up, Yunia half lay in Menes's arms, the clay pot was placed on the ground, Menis stretched out her right hand and scooped a little soup with the antelope horns, blew and cooled it to Yunia's mouth and said, "Drink some fish soup, although there is no salt, but it is still a little umami." ”
Yunia was lying in Menes's arms like this, and she couldn't help but blush on her face, and Menes looked at it and laughed, "I'm your fiancé, don't be shy!"
Yunia propped up her weak body and said, "I haven't agreed yet!"
"Agreed, no need to agree, when things are done, it's a family, hehe......" Menes teased.
"You ......" Yunia was so weak that she couldn't fight with Menes, so she had to drink the soup honestly, and her state was obviously much better today, so Yunia also ate a piece of mutton.
After eating, Yunia fell asleep again, and when she woke up again, it was already evening, and Menes was changing Yunia's dressing, and there was still a little pus from the wound under the armpit of her left shoulder, and the stimulating effect of the drug made Yunia wake up.
Yunia looked down and saw that half of her body was naked, and Menes dropped the medicine on the wound and gently wiped it with her hand.
Yunia hurriedly tried to dodge, and covered her clothes over the wound.
"Hey, don't move, the medicine hasn't been applied yet, and I'll have to put on a bandage later." Menis stopped.
"You go away, I'll do it myself, scoundrel!" Yunia seemed to be recovering well enough to curse.
"Come on your own, okay, you can wrap the bandages yourself, and apply your own medicine to the wounds on your back!" Menis said.
"You...... Have you seen it all?" said Yunia in shame.
"You're welcome, my clothes were also washed by me, they were really dirty, and I gave you a bath by the way, you don't know how smelly you were at the time, tsk......tt" Menes made a strange sound on purpose.
"You...... What are you going to do, you scoundrel, I don't want to marry you!" Yunia yelled angrily.
"Don't, don't be angry, it's easy to open the wound, I won't force you to marry if you don't want to, but it's not interesting to seek death, right? After all, I'm still quite handsome and can't ask you to seek death!" Menes said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, why don't you apply the medicine yourself, I don't force you, it's not that I haven't seen a woman, I don't want to be disrespectful to you, it's just that there is no way to heal your wounds, if you don't like it, come by yourself!" Menes spread her hands.
Yunia tried to wrap herself in a bandage, but after a long time, she still couldn't get it right, and she cried angrily.
Menis sat on the outside of the shack with her back to Yunia and said, "If you want to help, at most I can close my eyes and not look at it, okay!"
Yunia said with a crying voice, "You talk count, don't look, close your eyes!"
Menis smiled and turned over to help, when the body was wrapped around the bandage, Menes really closed her eyes and didn't look at it, it was all based on her senses, as for applying medicine to her back, she was still happily open and watched, anyway, Yunia buried her face on the ground and didn't know.
