The master of Fuyue Pavilion was afraid that she would be scared away. He opened his eyes wide and looked at her for help, his eyes full of pleading.
He had to make this girl pity him and help him.
As expected, the girl relented. She ran over quickly, knelt down next to him, and didn't care that the hem of her skirt was stained with blood. She grabbed his hand and checked his injuries.
The hand the girl held up was small and short, and it belonged to a child.
He was not surprised. This was the aftereffect of the secret technique, which would invert his physical age. If his guess was correct, his current appearance looked like he was only seven or eight years old.
The girl obviously knew some medical skills. Seeing how serious his injury was, she frowned anxiously. At this time, the children who came with her also gathered around, and they gathered around and whispered.
"This man is seriously injured."
"It looks like he is about the same age as us. He was also abandoned?"
"Sister Shu, can this person be saved?"
The girl named Zhu Shu took out her handkerchief and simply bandaged the most serious wound on his body, but even so the bleeding could not be stopped. The other children quickly contributed their own handkerchief strips, although they looked a bit shabby.
, but at least emergency treatment was done.
While bandaging, she asked the master of Fuyue Pavilion: "How do you feel? Is there any particular pain? Do you still remember your name?"
The master of Fuyue Pavilion had lost too much blood and was on the verge of coma. Under such circumstances, he even forgot to conceal his name and blurted out his real name: "Qie Yuan."
"Qie Yuan, right? Don't worry, I will cure you, don't be afraid..." The girl babbled some comforting words, which seemed a bit noisy to Qie Yuan at ordinary times, but at this moment, the girl's soft voice
These caring words made him feel relieved.
Qie Yuan finally couldn't hold on anymore and fainted. After he fainted, Zhu Shu gently patted his face to confirm that he had indeed lost consciousness, and the concerned expression on his face suddenly disappeared.
Her face was expressionless, and the eyes that should have been filled with a gentle smile on her delicate face were dead silent at the moment. She raised her head, her eyes swept across several children with dull faces around her, and finally landed on the opposite side.
In the forest, a person walked out slowly, wearing the iconic red clothes, and it was the end of the day.
He walked over unhurriedly and got closer. The red clothes brushed against Jie Yuan's face. Ju Kongjin lowered his head and looked down, as if looking at an ant, and sneered indifferently.
That voice sounded like he was mocking the person in front of him, "You did a pretty good job. He really thought you were here to save him, so he fainted because he was so relieved."
"It's just that the injury was too serious. If the master hadn't saved his life, he would have had no chance of surviving. But now he's almost here, just half a dead man."
"It's up to you now." Zhou Kongjin smiled and dropped a jade bottle. There were several jingling sounds inside. Chao Huan didn't ask what it was, but just poured out one.
She smelled the fragrance of the medicine and was stunned, "You are willing to give up such a good medicine?"
"It takes a full set to perform, and besides, ordinary medicine can't save him."
Chao Huan said nothing. She fed the pill to the unconscious Qie Yuan. The pill turned into spiritual power and dispersed. Under the effect of the medicine, Qie Yuan's pale face gradually gained some color.
"There is another medicine, you have to give him one pill every day." He threw out another jade bottle, Chao Huan opened it and smelled it, and then he knew what it was.
She raised her eyes, staring at the end of the day sky with her dark eyes, and said, "Soul-stealing pill?"
"You should know how."
Ji Kongjin did not explain, he believed in Chao Huan, and besides, the elixir would not be fatal if eaten, it would just make people... forget some things.
As expected, Chao Huan did not refute. She fed Qie Yuan another pill. This time, after the pill entered his mouth, Qi Yuan seemed to fall into a nightmare, and small screams came from his mouth from time to time.
Seeing this, Zhou Kongjin nodded and said, "Okay, take him back, don't expose the secret. I'll let Lian Yunlan protect you secretly, and try not to expose yourself until the critical moment."
After he said that, he turned and left. After his figure disappeared from sight, the children around Chao Huan regained their composure.
"Sister Shu, he looks much better." A little girl with braids said happily, and the other two little boys nodded.
Chao Huan looked at the three puppets with a gentle smile on his face and said softly: "I gave him medicine just now, but he has too many wounds. Let's go back first."
"Okay~" the three children agreed in unison, looking extremely well-behaved.
Chao Huan reached out and picked up Qie Yuan. Qie Yuan was covered in blood. The blood stained her clothes. She frowned slightly, but quickly removed it and put on a worried look.
She was surprisingly strong, even holding a seven or eight-year-old child could easily do it. She just stayed like this and left with her three little followers.
A few miles away, there is a small dilapidated temple. It is really inappropriate to call it a dilapidated temple. After Chao Huan came here, he brought a few puppets to repair it, and it actually looked like it could be habitable.
It's just that it rained several times recently, and there was a hole in the roof. Although it doesn't rain now, you can see the stars shining at night. Chao Huan unexpectedly liked this feeling, so he didn't repair it.
She came back with Qie Yuan, who appeared to be only seven or eight years old, and two children, a boy and a girl, ran out of the house, dressed simply but with joyful smiles on their faces.
"Sister Shu, you are back."
"Sister Shu, who is this?"
The little girl in a goose-yellow dress looked curiously at the person in Chao Huan's arms. Another little boy also noticed Qie Yuan who was covered in blood. He was so scared that he hid behind the little girl and did not dare to poke his head.
Before Chao Huan could speak, the three little followers behind him started talking about the situation just now. When Chao Huan saw them talking, he carried Qie Yuan into the house.
She wanted to change her clothes, and Qiyuan... also wanted to tidy up.
She changed her clothes and fetched water to clean Qie Yuan's body. After taking medicine, Qie Yuan's wounds were basically no longer bleeding. He only needed to be bandaged with medicine. But there was too much blood on his body, so Chao Huan changed three basins.
Just wipe it clean with water.
She looked worried at the rag-like clothes in her hands, and was about to go out to find some children to borrow some clothes from. When she left the house, she heard their animated discussion.
The loudest speaker was Erya. She was a girl with double tails. She was as powerful as the boys. She stood on a rock and said condescendingly to several people: "That person fell down at that time."
There was blood all over the ground, or did I hear his cry for help? I told Sister Shu, and then Sister Shu discovered the man. We were shocked when we walked over and saw him. If he hadn't still opened his eyes, we all thought that
He is dead."
A voice retorted: "But people can still open their eyes after death. My father's eyes were so wide when he was young."
It was the girl in the goose-yellow dress. Chao Huan remembered her name was Xiaoxi.
When she said this, Erya scratched her hair and became a little unhappy, "Well, that's because his eyes were moving. Anyway, we found out that he was not dead yet."
"Then Sister Shu bandaged his wounds and gave him medicine, so that he could be brought back alive."
When she finally finished speaking, the boys immediately applauded below. Xiaoxi curled her lips, but Erya raised her head proudly.
Although Chao Huan knew that they were puppets made by Ji Kong Jin, she still couldn't help but feel a little cute at this moment. She smiled and walked out.
As soon as she came out, she received a warm welcome from several children. Xiaoxi was the first to run over, raising her head and smiling.
"Sister Shu, how is that person doing?"
Chao Huan casually touched her head, yes, it was furry.
"He's seriously injured and will probably have to recover for a while. By the way, do any of you have extra clothes?" She looked at the three boys.
The three boys looked at each other, and they were all a little reluctant to give their clothes to others. After all, they usually lived very frugally, and each of them only had two pairs of clothes to wear.
Finally, a boy raised his hand and whispered: "I have it."
Chao Huan smiled and said, "Thank you, little steamed bun. When the medicinal materials are sold later, I will buy you all a set of clothes."
Several children cheered. Chao Huan went to the boy named Xiao Mantou to get some clothes, then turned back and put them on for Qie Yuan.
A few children pulled at the door frame and started muttering again.
Erya said: "This man looks pretty good after wiping his face."
Little Mantou said: "Okay, like a young master from a big family..."
Xiao Shizi said disdainfully: "Isn't he just a pretty boy? I've seen him a lot in Liuhong Street."
Xiaoxi was speechless: "Why are you still running over there? Sister Shu may find you and get angry."
Aruo nodded, not knowing who he was agreeing with.
Chao Huan listened to the children's conversation completely. She smiled helplessly, covered Qie Yuan with a quilt and left.
One day later, the unconscious Qie Yuan finally opened his eyes after taking the second pill.
He opened his eyes, and his dark eyes turned blankly. The injury on his body was too painful. He frowned in pain, but did not cry out, as if he was used to enduring the pain.
He looked at the surrounding environment with his only moving eyes, and could only recognize a simple house with nothing else, except for the fragrance of herbs on the tip of his nose.
Just when he was thinking about the current situation, someone pushed in the door and came with the bitter taste of the medicine. The man walked over carefully holding a bowl, for fear of knocking over the medicine in his hand. He walked to the bedside and carefully
He carefully placed the medicine bowl on the table and breathed a sigh of relief.
He was about to give medicine to the person on the bed, but when he saw a pair of dark eyes, he was stunned, and then ran out quickly.
A few seconds later, Chao Huan was hurriedly pulled in by Xiao Mantou. She looked at Qi Yuan who opened his eyes on the bed and was stunned.
She walked forward, looking delighted, "Are you awake? How do you feel?"
The person on the bed did not speak. His eyes fell on Chao Huan, seeming very confused.
Chao Huan asked a few more questions, but there was no reply from the other party. She was a little worried. Could it be that the medicine she drank these days was too bitter, so bitter that her tongue could not speak?
Just as she was thinking about what to do, the man on the bed finally spoke. Perhaps because he hadn't spoken for a long time, his voice was a little hoarse.
