Li Mu sat in the dark for a while, but the courtyard was still silent. Although the panic in his heart did not subside, Li Mu could not delay it any longer.
For every minute of delay, Aunt Gongsun will suffer one more minute, or the possibility of her injury getting worse will increase.
Li Mu coughed loudly and exaggeratedly asked for directions again. After that, Li Mu walked out and quickly approached Aunt Gongsun's house, then opened the door, closed the door and locked it, all at once.
Li Mu walked to the bed, and with the faint light and shadow, he saw Aunt Gongsun still lying upright on the bed.
Li Mu touched his forehead. His hands were burning hot, and he felt that his body temperature had exceeded 40 degrees.
Li Mu leaned over and listened for a while. Even his breathing was slow and difficult. His fingers touched his lips. The soft lips that were once flaming were now dry and cracked.
It only took half a day, and I basically didn't delay. Is Aunt Gongsun in such a bad state?
Li Mu was extremely anxious.
Li Mu didn't dare to hold the lamp, so he felt in the dark and forced her to drink. Hua Yidao's antipyretic and cooling medicine powder, and the golden sore medicine, were put on the wound on her left shoulder first.
The remaining injuries were minor. It was inconvenient to take off my clothes at this time, so I gave up.
After doing this, Li Mu gave the remaining half bowl of cold water to Aunt Gongsun to drink.
Then, Li Mu sat on the bedside, next to Aunt Gongsun, feeling regretful that he should have made preparations last night, so as not to delay Aunt Gongsun's condition.
If Aunt Gongsun's injuries were aggravated or her brain was directly damaged, then the crime would be too great.
After sitting for a while, Li Mu noticed that Aunt Gongsun's right hand moved and touched her clothes.
Li Mu turned around and asked in a low voice: "Aunt Gongsun, you're awake, what are you looking for?"
Li Mu said that as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was grabbed by Gongsun Auntie.
Aunt Gongsun's little hands were weak and hot. Li Mu was shocked. Such trembling hands did not look like the hands holding a sword to kill people. They were just like the hands of a baby.
Fragile, helpless, panicked, longing to be grasped and cared for, not to be given up.
Maybe this was the instinct to survive. Even though Mrs. Gongsun's head was already dizzy from the high fever, she still reached out from her subconscious to grab a life-saving straw.
Li Mu held Aunt Gongsun's hand with both hands and put her two small hands in his own.
Extraordinary warmth, salvation beyond life and death, it seemed that all emotions turned pale in an instant, just holding her hands was like giving her the whole world.
Time stopped and only heat was transferred between the palms. Then, Li Mu clearly felt that the temperature of Aunt Gongsun's hands was gradually decreasing.
Hua Yidao is indeed Hua Yidao. The name of the miracle doctor did not come from the strong wind. The real medicine for sores and fever has played an amazing role.
In fact, there is another reason that Li Mu ignored, which is time.
He just held Aunt Gongsun's hand and sat quietly in the darkness for half an hour.
Time, warmth, and herbs decisively changed everything.
"Water," Aunt Gongsun suddenly muttered one word softly.
Li Mu didn't understand, so he put his ear to Aunt Gongsun's lips and asked, "What did you say?"
"Water, I want to drink water." Aunt Gongsun said it completely and clearly this time.
"Okay, I'll get you some water right away." Li Mu said, about to let go of her hands.
But Mrs. Gongsun used all her strength to hold Li Mu's hand and still whispered softly: "Don't leave me, okay?"
Li Mu's tears flowed down resolutely. A very ordinary sentence was enough to make Li Mu burst into tears at this time.
This is Aunt Gongsun’s trust and expectation for her life. All her trust, gratitude, and kindness are contained in this sentence.
Don't leave me behind.
All persistence in life is nothing more than this.
Li Mu said in a trembling voice: "Aunt Gongsun, don't worry, I'm just going to boil water for you and I'll be back soon. I won't leave you behind, absolutely not."
Although Li Mu was wiping tears at the door, he still glanced around vigilantly. Finding nothing, he locked the door and went to the kitchen to boil water.
Li Mu sat in front of the stove, setting firewood to light the fire, crying and grinning at the same time.
This is the most vivid moment of two lives.
Li Mu boiled a pot of water and cooked half a pot of porridge.
It was a miraculous coincidence that at the Prime Minister's Mansion, he tried his best to save Li Jiao, and now Hua Yida was waiting there, waiting for Li Jiao's moment of recovery.
Li Jaw was assassinated and was supposed to be the victim. At this moment, Li Mu was also desperately trying to save the female assassin.
Who is right and who is wrong?
Can normal concepts of right and wrong explain one's own behavior?
It can only be a coincidence or God's will. Li Mu cannot leave either side behind.
Li Mu thought about this and laughed again.
Interesting, just plain interesting.
Just as I was thinking this, I suddenly heard a slight noise in Aunt Gongsun's room?
Could it be that she was so anxious that she struggled out of bed and fell to the ground? She really couldn't help with this kind of thing.
Li Mu came out with a bowl of boiling water, walked to Aunt Gongsun's door, kept a distance, and waited for a while. Don't let embarrassing things happen, and wait a little longer.
But the next moment, Li Mu's hand that opened the door retracted as if he was electrocuted.
The door lock is missing.
Li Mu was shocked, and without thinking, he kicked the door open and rushed in.
"Stop, put down what you are holding, and close the door." Opposite Li Mu, a man's cold voice suddenly came out. The voice was very familiar.
Li Mu almost dropped the water bowl on the ground.
"Who are you?" Li Mu took a step back and asked in a deep voice.
"Who am I? It doesn't matter. What I want to know most right now is who you are. Hurry up, close the door, come over and light the lamp, and you will know who I am. Don't move, or I will kill her with one knife." The man scolded her.
.
It's over. Li Mu has already heard who the man is. They had a face-to-face confrontation at noon. His sinister face and cold and arrogant voice were very annoying.
Now that Aunt Gongsun was under his control, this bastard was indeed vicious and actually killed a horseman. No wonder she felt uneasy as soon as she entered the yard.
Li Mu said: "Qin Zhenhai, what do you want to do? Let her go, don't do whatever you want, I will light the lamp right now."
Li Mu had no choice and rushed out of the door. Li Mu really couldn't even think about escaping.
Li Mu put the water bowl on the cabinet aside, walked to the bed, and lit the candle.
Li Mu complained endlessly.
On the bed, Qin Zhenhai was half-kneeling, holding a steel knife in one hand and placing it on Aunt Gongsun's neck. With the other hand, he was untying Aunt Gongsun's clothes.
Seeing that Li Mu was frightened and at a loss, Qin Zhenhai said sarcastically: "Li Sanqi, weren't you so arrogant at noon, pretending to be stupid and denying everything? Do you think I, Qin Zhenhai, am a fool and will believe your nonsense?
"
Li Mu shouted: "So what if I lied to you? Qin Zhenhai, stop it and let her go immediately, otherwise you will regret it for the rest of your life."
Qin Zhenhai mocked: "Regret? I regret a little. If I had known it would be noon, I would have caught both of you in one fell swoop, causing me to wait in the haystack for so long in the dark."
It turned out that this bastard had been hiding in the haystack, waiting for Li Mu to reveal all his whereabouts.
By persisting for so long before launching an attack, the result is that everyone will get the spoils? It's too insidious.
Li Mu said: "The surnamed Qin is indeed cunning, but I will give you a chance. Let her go now, and I will ensure that you get promoted and make a fortune, otherwise, you will be doomed."
Qin Zhenhai sneered sinisterly: "You dare to threaten me, how can you negotiate terms with me? I think this girl, although seriously injured, is beautiful and charming, and her figure is even more drool-worthy, compared to that Mr. Fu
Not bad at all.”
Qin Zhenhai said and unbuttoned another button.
Li Mu couldn't stand it anymore and scolded: "Qin Zhenhai, you are so shameless, why don't you stop? I might as well tell you, I am."
Li Mugang is about to reveal his true identity. He only has this trump card now. To save Aunt Gongsun is to save himself.
It is entirely possible for a bastard like Qin Zhenhai to go crazy at this moment and kill himself in a daze.
But before Li Mu could say anything, Aunt Gongsun tried her best and scolded: "Li Sanqi, if you don't shut up, I don't want your pity, get out."
At the moment of life and death, saving each other's lives is the true son and daughter of the world.
Li Mu was stunned, knowing that Aunt Gongsun was protecting him. It seemed that Aunt Gongsun had long recognized his identity as the prince.
Li Mu said in a trembling voice: "If I don't leave, the worst possible outcome is that we will all die here together today."
Although Mrs. Gongsun's eyes were open, she had no strength at all, and there was a look of despair in her eyes.
Aunt Gongsun struggled and said: "Li Sanqi, you don't have to worry about me. It's not worth it anymore to cause trouble and danger for me. I'm just going to die. I don't want to hurt you. You can leave quickly. Get out of here."
Qin Zhenhai laughed loudly and said: "It's interesting, it's really interesting. A young boy and a beautiful female assassin pity each other. What kind of relationship do you have? Sister and brother? Mother and son, or mistress? Hahaha, you can still go.
