There was an unruliness on the little girl's face that was not for her age, and she seemed a little defensive and did not react for a long time.
Zhao Rui untied the rope from the little girl's body and was about to help her up, but found that the little girl's ankle had already been swollen. It looked like the bones in the calf and ankle had been misaligned. If not treated as soon as possible,
I'm afraid this leg is going to be useless.
Several other people tied to the little girl fell to the ground after the ropes were loosened.
Zhao Rui hurried forward to check and found that these people were not breathing.
Putting the long knife in his hand next to him, Zhao Rui grabbed the little girl's ankle.
"What are you doing!"
The little girl struggled like a frightened little tiger.
"Don't move, I'm treating your foot!" Zhao Rui spread out a hand and held the little girl's shoulder.
"Let me go!"
The little girl was still yelling and waving her hands wildly.
It has to be said that children who grow up on the grassland are very strong. If Zhao Rui hadn't possessed a hundred years of inner strength, he might not have been able to hold it down.
"Okay, okay!"
Zhao Rui exerted force suddenly and injected an internal force into his ankle, and the dislocated bones were instantly connected.
The little girl finally let down her guard, but still stared at Zhao Rui with vigilant eyes.
"Are you really an envoy sent by Dashang?"
Zhao Rui took out the talisman seal.
"This was given by the Emperor of Dashang himself, it can't be false! By the way, such a big change has happened in Rouran, why not ask Dashang for help? Three months ago, Rouran and Dashang had made an alliance, this kind of
I, Dashang, will definitely send troops to help!"
The little girl's unruly face looked a little aggrieved.
"Those guys did everything right. When I found out that they were going to rebel and support the Huns, the army had already surrounded Shidu, and there was no way I could send the news out."
Zhao Rui sighed slightly: "Then they brought you here to execute you secretly?"
The little girl shook her head.
"My personal guards rescued me from Shidu while it was dark. I originally thought I was going to the Western Regions to ask for help, but I didn't expect to be stopped by them."
Zhao Rui looked at the talisman in his hand and considered it briefly.
"Well, the purpose of my trip is not only to unite with Rouran, but also to unite with the Western Regions. In this case, let's go to the Western Regions together. With the talisman in my hand, I might be able to get some reinforcements from the Western Regions."
Although the little girl was still a little hesitant, she still agreed.
It is relatively close to the Western Regions. It can be reached in three to five days if you go quickly, but it takes eight days to travel to Dashang.
Going to the Western Regions is obviously the best choice.
Zhao Rui tried to help the little girl up. Unexpectedly, the little girl stubbornly climbed up on her own, then limped to the side to hold the horse.
Judging from her appearance, she must have not eaten properly for a long time. She took the water and dry food off the horse and started eating and drinking.
Zhao Rui was a little helpless, smiled bitterly and got on the horse.
"My name is Zhao Rui, what's your name?"
The little girl swallowed the food in her mouth and climbed onto the horse's back very skillfully.
"My name is Tuoba Xue!"
There wasn't much talk between the two of them, they just rode horses and ran towards the Western Region.
It was obviously not the first time for Tuoba Xue to go to the Western Regions. He was very familiar with the mountains and terrain here. He knew where there were water sources, where there were people, and even where there were inns. It was like a living map.
When it was getting dark, the two people rushed to an extremely remote inn.
However, looking at the horse teams and camels parked outside the inn, it seems that the business of this inn is very prosperous.
