"It's finally safe." Jiang Yuhuan sighed as he hung weakly on the vine.
The vines wrapped around her waist, making her uncomfortable, but they kept her awake.
This is a cliff in a rocky area. Arrows can't reach it, and the top is piled with rocks with no place to step. Even if they wanted to kill her, they would have to climb over through vines along the route they just took.
But there is a bulge on their left hand side, just like a fallen mountain. The bulge is the top of the mountain. Their position is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if they are really chasing after them and climbing over, they have to dodge three people first. Seven's sword.
"Sanqi, you are injured. Let me give you medicine first." Sanqi was the main force among them. She had withstood many dangers and suffered many wounds on her body. However, she had always been restrained and did not speak out.
Sanqi shook his head, with a worried look on his face, "No, Princess and Princess, I always feel like I'm not done yet."
"We've all hidden ourselves to this point, what else..."
Jiang Yuhuan saw Sanqi staring at their right side, and looking over, Jiang Yuhuan understood Sanqi's worries.
The left side can indeed block attacks, but the right side has a very wide field of vision. If someone is ambushing there, they will...
"Someone!"
Jiang Yuhuan took a closer look and saw a black figure in front of the falling stone.
But it was too far away for her to see clearly.
When she was about to ask Sanqi if that man had any weapons, Sanqi suddenly reached out and untied the vines on her body.
"What's wrong, Sanqi?"
"Rocket! He's going to burn the vines with fire!"
People who practice martial arts have sharp ears and eyes, so they can naturally see more clearly than ordinary people.
Jiang Yuhuan's heart trembled, a chill rose up behind him, and cold sweat formed on his forehead one after another.
There were falling rocks on top, and there was no place to step down.
The archers on the left must not have left yet, and there are people on the right waiting for help.
They had nowhere to go but the cliff at their feet.
There was so much white mist under the cliff that it was impossible to see what was going on underneath.
Before he could decide whether to fight to the death or face unknown dangers, rockets were fired one after another.
Jiang Yuhuan was in a daze for a moment, and suddenly woke up when she smelled the smell of fire oil. She held on to the vine tightly, "Sanqi, you try your best to resist, I can take care of myself!"
Sanqi held a sword in one hand and a vine in the other. If she were to be a further burden, he would only be held back.
Sanqi also knew that the situation was urgent and quickly told: "Princess Princess, pay attention to safety, try to hold on to two vines, and change them at any time!"
"I know!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sanqi grabbed the vines, flew over Jiang Yuhuan and Zhongyuan, blocked the two behind him, and kicked away the incoming rockets.
Jiang Yuhuan obediently pulled the two vines, her palms were bruised and she gritted her teeth and refused to let go.
Sweat mixed with blood flowed down her brows and eyes, blurring her eyes. She vaguely saw that more people were standing next to the fallen rocks.
She blinked and glanced at Zhongyuan next to her.
Zhongyuan's lips turned white, and his whole body seemed to be fished out of water.
Her eyebrows were drooped and her head rested on her arm. Her whole body seemed to be hung with a rag doll, without any vitality. The blood from the hand being strangled flowed down the top of her head and onto her face.
Jiang Yuhuan was shocked, "Zhongyuan!"
Zhongyuan raised his eyelids with difficulty, "The county...the county princess."
Jiang Yuhuan's palms were sweaty, and he used both hands to pull on the vines to prevent himself from falling.
"Zhongyuan, what's wrong with you? Are you poisoned?" No wonder Zhongyuan didn't speak after sending the signal. If she hadn't wrapped the vine tightly around her hand earlier, she might have lost her strength and fallen!
"There is a drug in the arrow..."
Sure enough!
Jiang Yuhuan said anxiously: "Have you brought the antidote?"
"No...don't worry, princess...this slave's hand hurts...she won't fall asleep..."
When Zhongyuan said this, Jiang Yuhuan became even more anxious.
"I'm not worried about you falling asleep, I'm worried about your hands!"
Her throat was tight, one hand was wrapped around the vine, and the other hand reached out to hook Zhongyuan's belt and bring her over.
She moved her fingers back with difficulty little by little, clasping Zhongyuan's waist, trying to lift her up to share the pressure on her hands.
But she couldn't bring herself to do it.
She gently put Zhongyuan back to its original position, slowly slid down a little distance, and grabbed the vines and wrapped them around her palms.
Then she reached out again, hooked Zhongyuan's leg, put her foot against the cliff, and used her strength to lift Zhongyuan's leg and place it on her own.
There was no point of strength on the stone wall, and my legs kept shaking.
She reached out randomly and grabbed another vine, wrapping Zhong Yuan's legs around it.
She looked up and saw that the vine that had been stretched straight by Zhong Yuan finally curved a little, and she smiled bitterly.
"The princess of the county..."
Jiang Yuhuan could think of what Zhongyuan was going to say, so he interrupted: "Just stay like this! We have to persist, we must... we can wait until Fu Shilu."
No matter how many conflicts she had with Fu Shiju, at this moment she had to admit that Fu Shiju was her only savior.
She grabbed the vines with both hands and hugged Zhongyuan's legs tightly. Her whole body was almost pressed against the cliff. The vines were like sharp knives embedded in her palms. Her feet were so cramped that she didn't dare to put them down.
Zhongyuan had already injured an arm to protect her and could not lose another palm.
She kept this posture and had no energy left to see Sanqi's condition.
I just feel like it's getting hotter and hotter around me.
Jiang Yuhuan turned his head stiffly and found that the vines less than half a foot away from him were burning with fire.
There was only one thought in her mind, and Sanqi couldn't stop it.
If it goes on any longer, none of them will be able to escape!
She looked at the scarred Sanqi and Zhongyuan, and the pain all over her body made her extra awake, sober enough to make a rational decision.
"Sanqi! Come here!" she shouted at the top of her lungs.
Sanqi kept resisting, and her voice hesitated a little, "The Princess of the County..."
"This is an order!" Jiang Yuhuan said forcefully.
The next moment, Sanqi flashed to Jiang Yuhuan's side.
"Zhongyuan was drugged, and I'm afraid he has passed out. Please hold on."
"But..." Sanqi frowned without moving and kicked away the incoming rocket.
Jiang Yuhuan pushed Zhongyuan into her arms without saying a word. Before Sanqi could realize what Jiang Yuhuan meant, in the blink of an eye, the person lying on the cliff had disappeared.
She hugged Zhongyuan with difficulty and did not dare to let go. The fear in her eyes could not be dispelled for a long time, and Jiang Yuhuan's words - "live on" echoed in her ears.
Jiang Yuhuan's body fell rapidly, and the wind whistled in his ears, slowly turning from hot to cold.
She passed through the white mist and saw the dense forest at the bottom of the cliff, and sighed in her heart that there was such a scene under the cliff.
It's nice to have such beautiful scenery as company.
Just die, no one in this world really cares about her, and there are a few people who want her to die.
It's better to die, once and for all.
Their target is her. If she dies, Sanqi and Zhongyuan can be saved.
Although they didn't get along for a few days, the two of them did their best to take care of her.
Pictures played through her mind like a revolving lantern. The scenes were all after time travel, and the simple and happy days in her previous life gradually blurred.
Sure enough, the pain is unforgettable.
She closed her eyes, waiting to see the King of Hell and ask him why he arranged such a time travel for her.
However, the expected pain of shattering her bones did not come. She only heard a "plop", her head buzzed, and the coldness pouring into her ears and nostrils made her tremble.
She opened her eyes suddenly and found herself in the water. Her body reacted quickly and flopped upwards.
But she had difficulty moving her right leg, and no matter how hard she rowed, she made little progress.
Before he could swim out of the water, there was a huge splash next to him.
She turned around, and a familiar style of clothing came into view.
It’s Panax notoginseng and Zhongyuan!
She wanted to go over and join them, but she could hardly hold her breath anymore, so she could only point her finger upward, signaling Sanqi to go up first.
Seeing Sanqi nod, she continued to swim upstream.
She put her hands on the shore and climbed ashore with all her strength.
Seeing Sanqi struggling to drag Zhongyuan, he hurriedly stepped forward to help.
She dragged Zhong Yuan ashore and collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily.
Looking up at the sky, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sanqi, why are you down here? Are they unwilling to let you go?"
"The slave's duty is to protect the princess, not to be protected." Sanqi was ruthless to the end.
After hearing this, Jiang Yuhuan immediately quit.
Fortunately, there is a lake below, so everyone can save their lives. If not, then the group will be destroyed!
"Are you stupid? I jumped down just to save your lives. If there was no lake below, you would all die!"
Sanqi had a solemn face, but with a hint of pity, "We are secret guards, we are not afraid of death."
Jiang Yuhuan was speechless and simply stopped worrying about this topic.
"I don't know if Fu Shiju can find us yet. Let's find a place to rest first."
"Um."
Sanqi stood up and carried Zhongyuan on her back, while Jiang Yuhuan limped behind him.
The two walked around for more than half an hour before finally finding a relatively safe cave.
"There's no scent of wild beasts inside, so it shouldn't be a lair."
"Then let's rest here. Sir, light a fire and dry the clothes."
The bottom of the cliff was colder than the top. It was already evening, and if their clothes were still wet at night, they might catch the wind and cold.
"good."
Sanqi put Zhongyuan down and took out the Huozhezi from his arms.
"I just soaked it in water, can the Huozhezi still be used?"
Sanqi pulled off the lid and blew hard for a few times. When he didn't see the firewood igniting, he said, "My slave, go out and pick up some firewood."
"good."
Jiang Yuhuan sat on the ground, with his right leg slightly bent.
He raised his hands and saw the bloody strangulation marks on his hands, shook his head slightly, put down his relatively serious left hand, and carefully pinched the calf of his right leg with his right hand.
As soon as he exerted force, he grimaced in pain.
But if I don’t rub it loose now, it will be even more painful to walk tomorrow.
She gritted her teeth, stood up ruthlessly, and straightened her legs.
"hiss--"
The pain of forcibly stretching her muscles made her take a breath.
She stood on one foot and put her weight on her right foot.
What Sanqi saw when he came in holding a dead branch was Jiang Yuhuan's little face wrinkled into a ball, standing unsteadily on one foot.
"Princess Princess, what are you..."
"My feet are cramped. I'm going to stand still." Jiang Yuhuan explained.
Sanqi put down the dead branch and said, "I will help you rub it for a while."
"No, you're still injured, I'll be fine as I stand. By the way, there's a drug on the arrow. How do you feel now?"
Sanqi had many wounds scratched by arrows, so it stands to reason that she would also be affected by the drug.
