Chapter 113 Escape
Chapter 113 Escape
Qin Xingfu didn't know what to say. She just stared at the fire in a daze. She felt thirsty and wanted to drink some water. When she was about to get up, Gongshu Yuan handed her the water.
"This is boiled, drink this."
Qin Xingfu discovered that he had a strong ability to survive in the wild, so he picked up the water and started drinking it, and said to him after he finished drinking.
"Thank you! You also have a wound on your back. Let me take a look at it for you. Do you need any medicine?"
Gongshu Yuan really couldn't apply the medicine on his back himself, so he took off his shirt in front of her, exposing the wound, turned his back to her, and pointed at the medicine and said.
"Use this! No rush."
Qin Xingfu swallowed unconsciously when she saw his strong body, shook her head vigorously to shake out all the waste color, then slowly got up and untied her wound, which was a little red and swollen. She cleaned the wound, applied medicine, and bandaged it.
After finishing everything, Qin Xingfu was sweating all over and sat aside and talked.
"It's hot and humid here during the day, and it's raining. I wonder if they've noticed we're missing and if they can find us?"
Gongshu Yuan didn't want anyone to find them so quickly. He wanted to at least give them a few more days to spend more time together, so that he could be sure to leave a mark in her heart.
"It shouldn't be that fast, but the rain keeps on falling and we can't leave here without permission."
"Well, I don't like rainy days anymore when I grow up."
When she was little, she liked rain very much. On rainy days, she would sit by the window and read quietly. With the sound of rain, even the most boring books became very interesting. Occasionally, she would reach out to catch the raindrops, which was very cool and interesting. After her family members passed away, it was rainy twice, and she didn't like it anymore.
“I think rainy days are nice.”
It can wash away a lot of things, Gongshu Yuan really wanted to hide her.
Qin Xingfu felt that she couldn't get along with him. She had just spent a lot of energy changing the medicine, so she leaned against the stone wall and dozed off.
I don’t know how long I slept until I was awakened by the smell of meat. When I woke up, I found myself lying on a haystack.
Gongshu Yuan caught a pheasant from somewhere and had it almost roasted, and he also had a few fish.
"My Lord, are you hungry? Is this fish ready to eat?"
Gongshu Yuan handed her a grilled fish and she started eating it.
"Thank you! You eat too!"
Having not eaten for almost two days, she didn't care whether the food tasted good or not and just wolfed it down.
"Eat slowly, there's still more."
Gongshu Yuan saw that she quickly finished a fish and the pheasant was roasted, so he tore off a chicken leg and gave it to her.
Qin Xingfu felt a little embarrassed when he saw that he didn't move.
"You eat too, or I won't eat."
"it is good!"
Gongshu Yuan picked up a fish and started eating it, and then Qin Xingfu took the chicken legs and started eating. She finished both big chicken legs and still felt a little unsatisfied, but Gongshu Yuan didn't eat much, so she had to stop eating.
Seeing that she didn't want to eat anymore, Gongshu Yuan gave her half of the remaining pheasant.
"My lord, you should eat more. You are more seriously injured than me. Don't worry, I have set several traps and I should be able to catch prey in a while."
Qin Xingfu shook his head.
"Eat more now, and look for a way to get back. You need to eat more so you have the strength to find work."
The two men were pushing each other, and Qin Xingfu found that he had injuries on his arms and legs, so he asked him hurriedly.
"Why are you hurt again?"
Gongshu Yuan didn't take it seriously.
"The scented herbs are a little hard to pick, and the stone was loose and I accidentally dropped it, but it's no big deal."
"How can this be possible? Bring me some medicine and I'll help you apply it."
The energy she had taken in now gave her enough strength to stand up. Gongshu Yuan was worried that she would tear the wound if she moved, so he put down his food and supported her.
"It's okay, sir! Don't move, or the wound will open."
Qin Xingfu stood up and half-knelt. When Gongshu Yuan saw that she insisted on treating his wound, his heart softened for a moment.
He brought the medicine and asked her to apply it on him. Qin Xingfu had just bandaged his arm when he thought that a whole day had passed and it was time to change the medicine on his back.
"Take off your clothes and change the medicine on your back."
Gongshu Yuan obediently took off his clothes, but it made no difference whether he took them off or not, as his clothes were torn to shreds.
Gongshu Yuan sat cross-legged in front of her, and Qin Xingfu knelt behind him. Her breath sprayed on Gongshu Yuan's back, making him a little distracted.
"Alright! Be careful, it's a little inflamed. Try not to go out when it's raining."
Gongshu Yuan put on his clothes without changing his expression, and then took the medicine.
"My Lord, it's time to change yours too."
Qin Xingfu was a little shy, but in order to get out early, she turned around, took off her clothes, and turned her back to Gongshu Yuan, suggesting to herself that he was a doctor and did not differentiate between men and women.
The other wounds were fine, but the wound on her shoulder kept oozing black blood. The antidote seemed to be having a slow effect on her, and the wound was quite serious.
Gongshu Yuan put his hands on her shoulders and rubbed them.
"Sir, you may need me to suck out the poisonous blood from your wound. The wound has become festered."
Qin Xingfu discovered that his wound was different from his, and the poison seemed to be more serious than his.
"Then be careful."
Gongshu Yuan thought she would not agree, and was somewhat surprised to hear her answer.
"it is good!"
He cleared his mouth with water and then held her arm.
"Then I'll start."
"Okay, trouble!"
Qin Xingfu only felt that his hands were so hot, the temperature spread from his arms to his neck and ears, and his heart trembled a little.
Gongshu Yuan first cleaned the wound, then lowered his head to suck the poisonous blood, spit it out immediately after sucking it, and then sucked it over and over again.
He tried hard to stop himself from looking around, but his eyes looked somewhere uncontrollably and he even forgot what to do with his mouth.
"Gong...Gong Shuyuan..."
When Qin Xingfu saw him looking at her, she quickly reminded him that it was the dead of night and they were alone in the mountains. She couldn't beat him and her heart was beating wildly.
Gongshu Yuan came back to his senses.
"Sir, wait a moment, I want to see if the wound is still bleeding black blood."
Seeing her shy look, Gongshu Yuan pretended to be more concerned.
"Sir, your face is so red, but do you have a fever?"
As he spoke, he touched her forehead. Qin Xingfu moved slower, so he touched her. Gongshu Yuan then touched his own forehead and spoke.
"It's the same. Are you shy? We have been honest with each other for a long time."
"Uh……"
Qin Xingfu wanted to refute, but Gongshu Yuan continued to suck on her wound. Qin Xingfu was tense. She felt that Gongshu Yuan seemed to be teasing her, but she had no evidence, because after he sucked on her wound, she no longer felt the burning pain.
Gongshu Yuan did it on purpose. He wanted to take this opportunity to tease her, so he gave her the antidote with one ingredient missing so as not to affect her body.
"Okay... okay... apply... apply the medicine!"
Qin Xingfu felt that he was licking her shoulder, which made her very uncomfortable.
"It will be ready soon, just a little bit more."
Gongshu Yuan was leaning on her shoulder and talking. Qin Xingfu clenched her fists tightly. She silently chanted a mantra to calm herself, telling herself that she must not make any mistakes and now was not the time to think about these things.
Gongshu Yuan saw that she was obviously attracted to him but still restrained herself. He felt inexplicably angry inside, so he sucked out the last bit of the poisonous blood, applied the medicine to her, and then sat on the other side.
Qin Xingfu quickly put on her clothes. Seeing that he was unmoved, she felt that she was overthinking and was too sensitive.
Relaxing herself, she slowly laid down on the haystack.
"Thank you!"
The tone was very light, but Gongshu Yuan happened to hear it. He was gargling and became even more angry. What a fool! Then he would go ahead and spit out the water in his mouth.
"Sir, what I said before is true. I am attracted to you! Will I have a chance after I get out?"
Qin Xingfu was stunned by his sudden confession and opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
"That's not love, that's just admiration. I actually admire you a lot, but that's not love!"
"So what do you mean by liking someone? Do you like those people?"
She couldn't answer this question. She felt that she should like both of them, but if she were asked to fall in love, she really didn't know what to say.
"You don't like them, do you? You are willing to accept them because of habit and His Majesty's will. Do you really like anyone? Or do you think that as long as you give birth to children for them and treat them equally, you love them?"
"I really didn't know at first, but after getting to know them, I like them and I love the children too."
"It's just a duty, sir, try and see how I do?"
Qin Xingfu shook his head, then tilted his head to the other side.
"You are still young, you should pursue your own love. We are not suitable. Besides, there is more to life than just love."
When Gongshu Yuan saw her like that, he wanted to teach her a lesson immediately for being a hypocritical woman, but he thought that there was still a long time to go and there would be plenty of time in the future.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Qin Xingfu thought that she was persuaded by her words, so she lay down on the haystack and fell asleep.
For five days, it rained, and all the useful clues were washed away. Even the dog couldn't find any trace. He kept circling under the two trees on the cliff.
Yue Xin and his men searched for five days without sleep, but could not find anyone or the body. They dug the area almost three feet deep. The light in their eyes became dimmer and dimmer, and no one dared to say a word.
The health of the two in distress has improved a lot in the past few days, but the wound on Qin Xingfu's back caused by the wooden splinter is quite deep and is showing signs of festering.
On the sixth day, the weather finally cleared up and Qin Xingfu became a little impatient.
"We have to find a way out. Let's see if there is a way out."
"Are you feeling well?"
Gongshu Yuan wanted to stay with her for a few more days.
"Sure, the sun is out today, so it should be easier to find the way."
Qin Xingfu was afraid that her back would develop sepsis if she kept hurting it for a long time, and Gongshu Yuan's eyes were looking at her more and more strangely in the past two days. She didn't want to stay with him anymore. She was afraid that if she stayed with him for too long, she would really fall in love with him.
Most importantly, the atmosphere between them was weird.
"Okay! I'll help you."
The two of them stumbled and supported each other, struggling to climb up from the bottom of the cliff. After observing that there was no one around, they slowly came out. They didn't know how long they had walked before they met Yue Xin.
Yue Xin thought he was dazzled, but when he finally saw her, he shouted excitedly.
"My Lord! Is that you?"
Qin Xingfu looked at him, feeling aggrieved for a moment, and Yue Xin stepped forward and hugged her.
"How did you find me just now? I thought we were going to die!"
"I'm sorry! I was wrong."
Gongshu Yuan reminded him unhappily.
"Be careful, the master is covered in wounds!"
Yue Xin only then saw the scars of varying sizes on her body. The hands that had just been placed behind her back were covered in blood. She had wanted to get out so much that the wounds had split, but she hadn't made a sound.
"My lord, you..."
Qin Xingfu was holding his breath, but when he saw them, his tense nerves relaxed and he fainted from exhaustion.
Yue Xin carried her and walked away, completely uncaring about Gongshu Yuan's life or death. It was only when other soldiers saw him that they helped him back to the base to heal his wounds.
Dan Yao and Queen Ying were looking after the children at home while everyone else went to look for Qin Xingfu. When the children saw Yue Xin coming back with her covered in wounds, they were so scared that they burst into tears.
"Mom~"
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
"Wow wow..."
……
Yue Xin frowned and shouted harshly.
"Don't cry! Mom will be fine, Dan Yao, please take a look."
He gently put her on the bed, took a look at her and said.
"Take the children out and don't scare them."
Yue Xin and Ying Hou carried the children out, and Ying Hou spoke patiently.
"My dears, Mommy is injured. Please don't cry. Can you help Mommy together? Mommy needs to clean the wound now. Yue'er and Ni'er, can you come with me to boil some hot water? Queen, please keep an eye on my brothers and sisters."
"it is good!"
The triplets were older and more sensible. They nodded with tears in their eyes. Yue Xin helped to get medicine from the pharmacy. Ying Hou brought hot water to help clean the wound. They were heartbroken. Who wanted to kill the adults? Li Si? He was really tired of living.
Ying Bu, Mi Fu, Xu He and others rushed back immediately after receiving the news that she had been found. Dan Yao had already treated her wound. He sewed up the wound with trembling hands and then said with red eyes.
"Go ask Gongshu Yuan, who is it that wants your life?"
"I have asked, Gongshu Yuan said that you know someone, his name is Zhang Liang, but we haven't found him yet, so I don't know. Please take good care of you, I will go look for him."
Xuhe said this with a gloomy face and left. Yingbu punched him hard.
"Damn it! Li Si was a conspirator with him in the beginning, but he escaped. I didn't expect him to come and assassinate you now."
During this period, Xiang County was under martial law and people were in panic. Yilai heard that Qin Xingfu had been assassinated and her life or death was still unknown. He paid for leave to see her, but hesitated at the door. He felt sorry for her. If he had not done those things, the lady would not be suffering now.
He hesitated for a long time and was too ashamed to see her, so he left. He would definitely find out who had hurt the adults. He now understood that he had been plotted against and it was probably because of Zhang Liang!
Yilai had been in business for many years and knew those places were more likely to hide people. He felt that the woman who had sued him and Qin Xingfu in Xianyang was not simple, so he asked about the location of her home and began to wait.
Sure enough, a woman with two children observed for two days and found that this family ate about the amount of food for ten people at each meal. Yilai secretly leaned against the wall in the middle of the night and vaguely heard the voices of several men.
He tiptoed away, and just when he thought he was out of danger, a hand grabbed his shoulder and said.
"Yila~Long time no see!"
