In this way, the two of them stayed in the cave for nearly ten days.
With Shi Yi's constant help every day, the zhenqi in her body has stabilized, and she can still circulate the zhenqi on her own.
This is a good thing for the empress. With the help of herbal medicine, her internal organs can also be restored.
Even if it's a little slow, it's still pretty good.
On this day, Shi Yi went to the cave entrance to observe, and found someone appearing, as if he was looking for something.
He is so sneaky and doesn't look like a good person at first glance.
Moreover, these people are all cultivators. Even if their cultivation level is low, they are all in groups.
If Shi Yi guessed correctly, these people are the people of King Lian Jing.
I didn't expect to find it here.
"Captain, do you think the prince is too cautious?"
"What are you talking about? Your Majesty? What do you think? You are the Emperor now. Don't make random guesses about His Majesty's will. Do you understand?"
The captain glared slightly at this little brother. If he wasn't the younger brother of his best friend, he would definitely give him a severe lesson.
The captain's words made the man a little scared, knowing that he had said the wrong thing.
"Chen Ping, since I mentioned this matter, my brother will reveal some information to you. You must not tell it. Otherwise, don't blame me if you die."
The captain paused and then said:
"The empress has been severely injured by the emperor, and it is estimated that she will not survive for long. Even if she survives, she will lose all her cultivation. The reason why we came to search is to get the exact results.
When the time comes, the mouths of those ministers can be silenced, and the emperor can truly be upright and righteous, and no one will make trouble from now on, do you understand?"
"Okay, let's work hard. As long as we can find him, promotion and fortune will be inevitable."
Their conversation was clearly heard by Shi Yi.
These people's cultivation was not high and they had no idea that Shi Yi was eavesdropping.
A group of people walked towards the waterfall. Under the command of the captain, some people began to look behind the waterfall.
Of course, there were also people looking for the cliffs on both sides.
There was even a person who passed under Shi Yi's cave entrance and did not notice that there was a cave entrance above.
Shi Yi hid there quietly, observing the situation.
Until these people left, Shi Yi also thought about killing these people.
But, in the end, I changed my mind and gave up.
The mission of these people with low cultivation level is to search. Once they find Shi Yi and others, they will definitely not be the ones to fight.
If they were killed, King Lianjing would definitely guess that Shi Yi and the others were nearby.
It will be more troublesome then, so just bear with it now, as long as they leave.
There might be some signal on these people. Once the whereabouts of Shi Yi and the others are discovered, the signal will definitely be released, and a large number of experts will come.
In that case, it's really not worth the gain.
It wasn't until those people left that Shi Yi silently retreated.
The empress was still sitting cross-legged and meditating. However, when Shi Yi came closer, he noticed some changes on the empress' body, and she was shrouded in a faint white mist.
As long as you get close, you can feel a cold air, and it gets colder and colder.
What's going on?
Shi Yi remembered that when she went out, the empress was still fine and there was no such phenomenon.
It seemed to be getting worse and worse, and the empress' body began to tremble, as if she was freezing.
If you listen carefully, you can still hear the empress's upper and lower teeth chattering.
Is it too cold?
Even when she was running her skills, her movements became sluggish.
Shi Yi realized the dangerous aura and if he continued like this, he might freeze to death.
"Your Majesty, stop it, stop it."
At first, the empress didn't react at all. She stopped only after Shi Yi shouted to stop her many times.
However, the coldness on her body was still there, and she was trembling constantly.
This sudden phenomenon left Shi Yi at a loss.
He quickly took off his clothes and put them on the empress.
This may keep you warmer, but this little bit of clothing is just a drop in the bucket and has no obvious effect.
The empress was still trembling and curled up on the ground.
There is no dry firewood prepared here, so we cannot make a fire for heating.
If you really light a fire, you are afraid that no one outside will find it if you are not far away.
Shi Yi thought about it and finally decided to get close to the empress, lie behind her, and hug the empress from behind, which might keep her warm.
This is the only way Shi Yi can think of. No matter how effective it is, do it first and then talk about it.
When he hugged the empress from behind, his heart beat faster. This posture was easily misunderstood.
Fortunately, the empress was shivering from the cold and didn't say much. It looked like she was about to fall into a coma.
Shi Yi clung to the empress' body like this, and hugged the empress' waist with his other hand.
At the beginning, Shi Yi was still unable to control some of his thoughts.
There were some reactions on his body, but luckily Shi Yi was under forced control and didn't make any excessive moves.
Just like that, they kept hugging each other and providing warmth to the empress.
Although there has been some improvement, it is far from enough.
The empress gradually lost consciousness and passed out completely.
While Shi Yi was hugging her tightly, he was also thinking about what else he could do.
Some warming knowledge from past lives kept coming to my mind.
When an idea came up, Shi Yi hesitated a little.
It is to keep people warm. In fact, the best thing is to have close physical contact, so that people's temperature will rise.
However, this heating method requires close skin contact between two people, zero contact without any obstacles.
This means that the temperature will rise to the maximum only when both of them are not wearing clothes.
Shi Yi didn't know what to do for a moment.
If he does that, will the empress kill him when she wakes up?
Also, he didn't know if he would be able to control his impulse if he did so.
To be honest, he didn't have much confidence. After all, he was a normal man, a man who tasted his marrow and understood his taste. Plus, he had not had it for a long time, and it was even more difficult to control him.
If she didn't do that, the consequences for the empress would be more serious. She might freeze to death or even have frostbite on her brain.
Shi Yi didn't dare to think about the consequences.
He took a deep breath, as if he had made a decision.
"Your Majesty, I am doing this to save your life. I hope you can understand that I really don't want to do anything to you."
After he finished speaking, his hand moved towards the clothes on the empress's body...
When pieces of clothing were thrown aside by him, in order to achieve better results, Shi Yi asked the empress...
Fortunately, the empress was already in a coma, otherwise, she would definitely not cooperate with Shi Yi like this.
Shi Yi was still hugging her from behind, constantly thinking in his mind that color is emptiness and emptiness is color.
Repeat this over and over again to calm yourself down and stop thinking too much.
Even though there were some reactions on the body, there was no further action.
Shi Yi even thought that maybe when he fell asleep, he wouldn't have that kind of thought, let alone do that kind of thing.
The idea is good, but unfortunately, it is very difficult to implement.
He couldn't fall asleep for a long time. He originally thought about not sticking close to her, but as long as he didn't stick close to her, he would obviously feel that the empress' body was getting colder.
If you stick it tightly, the temperature will rise a little.
This gave Shi Yi a headache. He was so close, so responsive, and even so impulsive.
He was really miserable. Several times, he thought about giving up and forget it.
However, it seems unsatisfactory to think of the empress dying like this.
Under the condemnation of his conscience, Shi Yi had no choice but to stick close to him, silently saying not to have such thoughts and not to be so impulsive.
Time passed little by little, and the temperature of the empress' body increased significantly, and she no longer shivered...
Shi Yi felt much more relaxed. He continued to tremble, and he didn't know if he could still control it.
