Seeing that the method was working, Xi Jin continued to guide patiently: "Listen to me and try to roll your body onto the raincoat. Be sure not to stand up. Use crawling or rolling methods."
Among the people who were stuck in the quagmire, Fan Ju was the smartest. After all, he was a scholar and had excellent comprehension skills. In addition, he was already thin, so he fell on the coir raincoat after a few rolls.
"Xie Luo, pull quickly." Xie Luo heard this and pulled hard on the vines in his hands. With the support of the coir raincoat, Fan Ju was quickly pulled out of the quagmire.
"Great, we've been rescued." The people on the side couldn't help but cheered after hearing this.
Xie Luo’s wife is really capable!
Everyone in the quagmire saw that this method was really effective and quickly imitated it.
"Don't be hasty, be gentle." Xi Jin knelt on the edge of the quagmire, his heart as if in his throat, fearing that if someone didn't pay attention, they would fall into it again.
Listening to Xi Jin's gentle voice, the people in the quagmire slowly calmed down and followed Xi Jin's words step by step.
Soon, the remaining people were pulled out, and Xi Jin breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the ground.
"Jin'er, drink some water." Xie Luo handed the kettle to Xi Jin, sat down next to her, and sighed, "I always thought I was protecting you, but at the critical moment, it was you who protected everyone."
"Without you, I wouldn't be able to save them just by knowing those techniques."
Xi Jin took Xie Luo's hand in a clear voice, took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, poured the medicinal powder inside into his palm that was bruised and bleeding by the vines, and took a few breaths gently.
The two looked at each other and smiled. At this moment, they seemed to be extremely close to each other.
"Does it hurt?" Xi Jin skillfully pulled off the fabric of her inner garment and bandaged her wound.
"It doesn't hurt." Her breath was so gentle, blowing on the wound, making him feel itchy in his heart.
"Jin'er, when Yazhou settles down, I will buy you some nice clothes."
Xie Luo looked at Xi Jin's increasingly thin face, and then saw that the clothes she was wearing were still the same azure cotton skirt she wore when she set off from the capital, and she couldn't help but feel distressed.
She was supposed to be the beloved daughter of the Prime Minister, and even if she became his Xie Luo's wife, she should be well-dressed and well-fed.
But now that he has been exiled all the way and suffered so much, it is really heartbreaking.
"Okay, I like pink ones." Xi Jin naturally saw Xie Luo's distress, and deliberately pretended not to care, "It's time for you to change your clothes."
"Okay." Xie Luo smiled softly, with a heart-warming look in his eyes.
"Shall I go see if they are injured?"
A few people were stuck in the quagmire just now. Although the time was not long, they were afraid of being squeezed or frostbitten in the quagmire.
"I'll go with you." Xie Luo stood up and helped Xi Jin.
Xijing had just saved everyone, but she could no longer hide her brilliance. Others would covet her, and he should always protect her.
When the people who were rescued from the quagmire saw Xi Jin coming, they all stood up and thanked them: "Xie Luo, my wife, you are really our savior!"
"You're welcome, it's just a simple task. Let me take your pulse and see if there are any injuries?"
"Are you Mu Xijin?" came a man's cold voice.
Xi Jin turned around and saw Fan Ju walking up to ask, covered in mud.
Xie Luo subconsciously protected Xi Jin behind him, with a wary look on his face: "Fan Ju, you are also a scholar. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to call my wife by her maiden name like this."
Fan Ju's face flushed when he saw Xie Luo's actions: "Xie Luo, don't get me wrong, I just want to know..."
"Yes, that's right, I am the treacherous daughter you mentioned." Xi Jin said calmly.
Fan Ju raised his hands and gave a salute, and said with a smile: "Ashamed, ashamed."
Xi Jin didn't take it seriously and took their pulses one after another: "Fortunately, I was just frightened and my legs are fine."
Everyone on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, but after hearing Master Liu's words, their hearts were in their throats again.
"Xie Luo, what do you think we should do next? The quagmire is the only road we have not walked through. If this exit is blocked by the quagmire, then we will not be able to get out of this forest?" Mr. Liu and Xie Luo discussed countermeasures.
Since he knew Xie Luo's abilities, he felt more and more that Xie Luo was a reliable person, and he always wanted to discuss it with Xie Luo when something happened.
As for Huang Yong, just don't cause him any trouble.
Xie Luo narrowed his eyes, scanned the surrounding environment, and said in a deep voice: "We have done what we should mark. We don't dare to take risks in the quagmire. The only solution now is to search deep in the grass and trees. The last chance is possible.”
"This is really the only way." Mr. Liu sighed, "Everyone rests where we are for a while. After a quarter of an hour, we will find a way deeper into the grass and trees."
Everyone sat down with sighs, their moods sinking to the bottom. No one knew what the outcome would be next? Maybe even a life was lost by accident.
A quarter of an hour later, just when Mr. Liu was about to call everyone to start, a commotion suddenly came from deep in the grass.
Xie Luo lay on the ground alertly, clearly feeling the ground shaking. Such movement must be the appearance of a ferocious beast.
"What's wrong?" Xi Jin had a bad feeling when he saw Xie Luo's face turned so gloomy that he could drip ink.
"Jin'er, run quickly!" Without saying a word, Xie Luo picked up Qi Qi with one hand and held Xi Jin with the other, running in the same direction.
Everyone saw Xie Luo's reaction and started running, but the two-legged ones couldn't outrun the four-legged ones.
Soon, Fan Ju, who was running behind, was so frightened that his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
The people traveling together shouted in horror: "It's a tiger, the tiger is going to eat people!"
Xi Jin turned around while running, and when he looked closely, he found that the tiger was an eye-catching white-fronted tiger, with dark brown stripes on its white fur.
Its eyes are bright, it walks energetically, and its fur is shiny. It doesn't look like it's hungry and wants to eat people. And why does it look familiar?
"Xie Luo, look!" Xi Jin stopped and pulled Xie Luo's clothes, "Look, is that tiger the one we rescued?"
At this time, the tiger ran up to Fan Ju, but had no intention of eating him. It just pressed him and sniffed him.
Tiger saw Xi Jin stop and roared excitedly in Xi Jin's direction.
"It seems to be that one." Xie Luo looked at the tiger carefully, "It doesn't seem to want to eat people, but..."
"Is it looking for us?" Xi Jin boldly guessed, but she didn't know it yet and didn't dare to make this bet.
"Xie Luo, Xie Luo, help me!" Fan Ju, who was pushed to the ground by the tiger's claws, stopped when he saw Xie Luo and shouted desperately.
The tiger raised his head, looked at the two of them, roared excitedly, and walked slowly towards them...
