In a coma, Qin Rushuang felt that she was very cold, really cold.
The chill that invaded her bone marrow made her feel as if she was immersed in ice and snow. The wisps of cold air were like maggots attached to her bones, making it impossible for her to escape.
Just when she thought she was about to freeze to death, she suddenly felt a warmth coming from her fingertips.
She instinctively approached the heat source, and immediately, bursts of warmth came from the places where her skin was touching.
She tried her best to get close to the warmth, absorbing it almost greedily.
In her hazy consciousness, the warmth made her let out a comfortable sigh, and she couldn't help but hug the heater tighter.
She was in a daze for a moment and felt that this stove was really comfortable.
Even though she hugged her so tightly, it didn't burn her skin, so she couldn't help but rub her cheek gently.
She couldn't tell whether this was reality or a dream. If it was a dream, why did the heater in her arms suddenly become stiff?
…
At this time, Xie Xun closed his eyes tightly.
In her arms, Qin Rushuang's outer robe had been taken off, and she was only wearing her inner garment.
He himself took off his outer robe and inner clothes, allowing Qin Rushuang to absorb the heat from his body without any hindrance.
He used the two people's robes to tightly wrap Qin Rushuang's body, while his entire back was exposed to the cold air.
It was fine when he first picked up Qin Rushuang, Qin Rushuang just instinctively moved closer to him.
Later, Qin Rushuang's cheek pressed against his chest for some reason. She seemed to feel warm and comfortable, and she rubbed it gently.
Xie Xun's body just froze in place.
His mind could no longer feel the coldness around him, and all the senses in his body were concentrated on his chest.
He could feel Qin Rushuang's slightly cold cheeks pressing against the skin on his chest, and the tip of her straight nose brushed against his chest from time to time.
Following Qin Rushuang's gentle movements, the long eyelashes on her eyes brushed against Xie Xun's skin like feathers, causing ripples in his heart one after another.
Xie Xun could only close his eyes harder and imprison Qin Rushuang in his arms, while he silently recited the Qingxin Mantra in his heart.
…
When Qin Rushuang woke up again, it was already the night of the second day.
As her consciousness returned, she gradually felt something was wrong.
Where the body comes into contact, the warmth should not be something in this cave.
She opened her eyes suddenly, and what she saw was a honey-colored chest in the darkness.
And her hands were tightly wrapped around Xie Xun's lean waist. She could even feel Xie Xun's strong muscles and skin texture under the skin.
Realizing that she was closely attached to the naked Xie Xun, and Xie Xun's hands were still tightly hugging her, Qin Rushuang immediately struggled to get up.
"do not move."
Xie Xun's slightly hoarse voice came from above.
"Don't worry, I only took off your robe, and I didn't look at anything with my eyes closed. You fainted from the cold yesterday, and I had no choice but to do so."
Although Qin Rushuang didn't want to be so intimate with Xie Xun, she knew what was good and she also knew that in the situation like yesterday, Xie Xun was trying to save her, but...
Qin Rushuang broke away from Xie Xun's arms and put on her robe silently.
"Thank you for yesterday, Your Majesty. I'm much better now, and I should be able to get through the rest of the time on my own."
She silently tied her grandmother's lace up, and then said to Xie Xun, whose eyes were still closed, "Your Majesty, you can open your eyes now."
After receiving Qin Rushuang's approval, Xie Xun opened his eyes. When he opened his eyes, Qin Rushuang had already put on his clothes.
The softness in his arms left him, and Xie Xun couldn't help but feel disappointed, but when he heard her words of thanks, he felt that it was all worth it.
Xie Xun stretched his muscles and bones. He sat with Qin Rushuang in his arms all night, and his body became stiff.
"Just wait, I'll get some water..."
Qin Rushuang was completely awake now. She thought of the man who gave her water by mouth when she was confused. Her face was filled with warmth. Fortunately, the light in the cave was dim and Xie Xun didn't notice her.
abnormal.
"No need, I'm much better now. Where is the spring? Your Majesty, just take me there."
Hearing this, Xie Xun didn't say anything. He stood up, picked up the inner clothes and outer robes scattered on the ground, then turned his back and put on the inner clothes and outer robes.
As he turned around, Qin Rushuang could see clearly that Xie Xun's chest was close to hers, which was normal, but a layer of frost had been frozen on his back, and the flesh under the skin had been frozen and bruised.
s color.
"Your back...you put two robes on me last night?"
Xie Xun paused, smiled casually, and said: "I am a man, not afraid of the cold. Come with me, there is water over there."
Qin Rushuang silently followed him to a place with water, took some water and drank it, then silently returned to the stone bed.
She crossed her legs and continued to meditate, and Xie Xun also started a new round of exercise with her.
The remaining time passed quickly.
Qin Rushuang still felt very cold.
The warmth I had drawn from Xie Xun before was dissipated so unexpectedly after I left Xie Xun.
But this time she gritted her teeth and did not ask Xie Xun for help, and managed to survive until the morning of the third day.
In the early morning of the third day, as the stone door rumbled, Xie Xun immediately opened his eyes.
Jin Erkan's voice came from outside, "How are you? Are you still alive?"
Xie Xun couldn't bear to be angry with Jin Erkan, because he found that one night passed, Qin Rushuang was frozen to the point of unconsciousness again!
"TOEFL, they are all still alive, but she seems to have fainted."
There was a hint of nervousness in Jin Erkan's voice, "Don't touch her, I'll come in and take a look first."
Jin Erkan walked in quickly, his right hand touched Qin Rushuang's pulse, and his left hand explored the dantian of her lower abdomen.
After a brief diagnosis, Jin Erkan breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, I just fainted from the cold. It's time to enter the next stage."
When Xie Xun heard this, he immediately carried Qin Rushuang on his back.
After carrying Qin Rushuang on his back, he felt that Qin Rushuang's body had almost no weight, so light and soft.
But he knew that this body contained a power that he couldn't ignore and admired very much.
He carried Qin Rushuang on his back, followed Jin Erkan, and quickly returned to the cabin.
Jin Erkan asked him to carry Qin Rushuang to their small house, pointed to the bed and said: "Put her on the bed, and you go with me to collect herbs."
Xie Xun frowned. He just wanted to stay with Qin Rushuang and take care of her.
Jin Erkan saw what he was thinking.
"Now is not the time for family love. I spent three days collecting the medicine you two need. You and I go to pick the marrow herb. Get the medicine as soon as possible, and she will suffer less."
crime."
Xie Xun had heard of the Marrow Cleansing Grass mentioned by Jin Erkan before. It is a very precious medicinal material that can improve the physical condition of people who practice martial arts.
He stood up, glanced at Qin Rushuang on the bed with great reluctance, gritted his teeth, and followed Jin Erkan out of the door.
Half an hour later.
He came back with a basket full of marrowgrass.
Jin Erkan neatly put the herbs into a stone mortar and pounded them into a paste, then ordered Xie Xun to boil two barrels of hot water.
After everything was ready, Jin Erkan poured the mud of marrow-washing grass into the hot water.
"I don't have such a big wooden barrel here for you two to bathe together, so we have to separate. I'll go out first. You take off Qin Rushuang's clothes and she goes in and soaks her in the potion of marrow-cleansing grass."
"Senior, wait! Help her..."
Before Xie Xun finished speaking, Jin Erkan had already closed the door of the house with a click.
There were only two steaming wooden barrels left in the room, and the unconscious Qin Rushuang on the bed.
