Chapter 179 Luo'er feeds Prince Su medicine mouth-to-mouth to save his life?

When Prince Su stopped breathing, Li Qingluo's soul seemed to fly away in fright.

If Prince Su dies here today, I'm afraid even if I manage to return to Jinling alive, I won't survive.

Moreover, even during the battle, Prince Su protected her the whole time. I wonder if his injury was because of her?

Li Qinglu recalled her several interactions with Prince Su and the help he had given her on several occasions, and felt extremely uncomfortable.

Prince Su should not have died!

Although he was often insidious, cruel, bloody, and brutal in his actions and investigations, did he ever wrong anyone in any of the cases he tried?

Those corrupt officials, those powerful clans, all those who were murdered or massacred—which one of them didn't truly deserve to die?

Even if the whole family suffers, it is because they are implicated by the most heinous criminals.

He never harmed the common people!

Moreover, he could be considered a benefactor to me!

He may have already succumbed to the poison that night.

But he remained silent and led her out of danger.

Li Qingluo realized that his slow movements and even pauses several times must be due to the poison taking effect, which affected his originally highly skilled abilities.

If he were healthy and in his prime, and without her burden, he would have escaped this cliff long ago.

But he didn't say a single word.

Perhaps he didn't want her to worry or be afraid, or perhaps he wanted to ensure she was safely delivered to a safe place.

He did it after all.

Thinking of these possibilities, Li Qingluo's eyes involuntarily reddened.

Prince Su must not die!

Li Qingluo suddenly remembered that when she and Prince Su reached the first small tree, she had stuffed the medicine that Zhuiyu had asked her to bring into Prince Su's hand.

Did he eat at the time?

Whatever kind of medicine it is, it's the only medicine he has right now!

At this moment, Li Qingluo no longer cared about social status or even the difference between men and women, and reached out to touch Prince Su all over his body.

On my waist, in my bosom, in my sleeve, and finally I found a medicine bottle in the inner pocket of my sleeve.

She quickly reached out and poured out a handful.

After thinking about it, she still fed it all to Duan Rongshi.

Anyway, he's already dead, maybe the next dose of strong medicine will bring him back to life!

But even if these pills were poured into Duan Rongshi's mouth, he wouldn't react at all, so how could he swallow them?

How can one find a way to survive if they can't eat?

Li Qingluo almost without hesitation pried open his mouth, then lowered her head and blew a lot of air into Duan Rongshi's mouth.

The moment their lips touched, Li Qingluo involuntarily widened her eyes.

His lips were still warm and soft, so how could he have stopped breathing?

Her eyes grew redder and redder as she stayed up, and then she blew air into Duan Rongshi's mouth, one breath after another.

Fearing he might not be able to swallow, or that the pill might roll into his trachea, Li Qingluo would occasionally lift Duan Rongshi's head and close his jaw to help the medicine in his mouth fall more smoothly.

After blowing on it for an unknown amount of time, Li Qingluo finally managed to force-feed him all the medicine in his mouth.

She dared not delay and continued to relentlessly attack the others.

Only when Li Qingluo's hand was almost too weak did she quickly pinch his tiger's mouth again.

After pinching the tiger's mouth, Li Qingluo remembered that Granny Deng had once told her that if she encountered a crisis, she could slap the elbow crease forcefully to draw out blood, which might save her life!

Li Qingluo had no time to think about whether this method was still useful at this moment. She quickly lifted up Prince Su's sleeve, grabbed his arm, and began to slap him hard again.

"Clap clap clap clap clap clap..."

"Wake up! Wake up! Prince Su, you can't die, you can't die, you know that?"

She exerted all her strength, and before long, a patch of purplish-red blood appeared in Duan Rongshi's elbow crease.

Li Qingluo lowered his head and called out again, "Your Highness Prince Su, Your Highness Prince Su?"

There was still no response.

But she has already tried everything she could. Is there really no hope?

Li Qingluo hadn't eaten for a long time and was exhausted after a whole night. She turned around and collapsed next to Prince Su, almost completely drained.

There were still piles of unmelted snow and ice around her, but her hands and feet were colder than the snow and ice...

In an instant, she seemed to fall asleep.

She didn't know how long she had been asleep when she suddenly heard a cough.

Li Qingluo immediately opened her eyes.

At this moment, the sun was already high in the sky.

Li Qinglu thought that she must have slept for two hours.

She quickly got up to look at Prince Su, whose face was still snow-white and whose lips were still purplish-black.

However, she saw a pulse beating slightly in his neck!

He... he's alive?

Moreover, she did hear a sound just now; could it have been him?

Li Qingluo immediately rushed forward excitedly and carefully checked Prince Su's breath again.

A faint mist sprayed onto her icy fingertips.

For some reason, Li Qingluo burst into tears and buried her face in his chest, crying, "You finally, finally..."

They have finally come back to life, at least temporarily.

Since her rebirth, Li Qingluo has rarely shed tears.

Because she knew that tears were the most useless thing.

Aside from a few times when he was acting, he would only show his true feelings when he was with his grandmother.

At this moment, she didn't know why, perhaps it was because she wanted him to come back to life so much.

"That's good, as long as you're breathing. Don't worry, I definitely won't let you die."

Having made up her mind, Li Qingluo decided that she would not linger here any longer and had to leave.

She wanted to take Prince Su out, but it would be troublesome if those men in black were still searching the mountain.

However, Prince Su has been missing all night. During the battle yesterday, Po Feng was ordered by Prince Su to break through the formation and report the news. If he succeeds, Zhui Yu and the others will know that Prince Su has been ambushed.

Therefore, they will definitely return to Jinling to gather troops to wipe out these traitors and also search for Prince Su.

As long as she takes Prince Su to a safer place, Zhuiyu and the others will surely find her.

After thinking it through, Li Qingluo immediately got up and began to take action.

But how is she supposed to drag a man who is extremely tall?

Li Qing measured him and found that Prince Su was at least five feet seven inches (1.9 meters), while she was only slightly taller than his sword!

Li Qinglu thought for a moment, then quickly took off her cloak and then her thinner outer robe.

Then, wrap the outer garment around Prince Su's armpits, and finally stretch it out and tie a knot at the end.

In this way, she could drag Prince Su along and carry him on her back without hurting the wounds on his shoulders and back.

Li Qingluo was a woman of immense strength.

She has been able to plow the fields since she was a child.

As she grew older, she plowed almost all of the Liu family's land, big and small.

She was the ox of the Liu family, and her strength was naturally extraordinary.

However, when she lifted Prince Su, she still had to grit her teeth with difficulty.

Fortunately, she managed to drag him along in the end.

She walked and stopped frequently, and it became even more difficult for her when she reached the uphill section. When going downhill, she had to clear away the rocks in advance.

Sometimes, if she accidentally bumps or falls, Li Qingluo can only mutter, "Even if you are as precious as gold and jade, you have fallen on hard times today and can only make do."

Fortunately, Li Qingluo successfully left the platform and reached the path.

She walked even slower. The road was long and winding, and the mountain path was covered in snow. If she slipped, she could easily tumble down the cliff with no edge to lean against.

This time, she dared not gamble.

Li Qinglu walked very slowly, and when she finally left the narrow mountain path, she was even somewhat exhausted again.

Finally, a forest came into view.

A smile appeared on Li Qingluo's face as she lifted her foot and continued walking forward, wanting to go to a safer and more spacious place.

Unexpectedly, when she lifted her foot to step down again, she found herself stepping into nothingness under the thick snow!

"ah--"

Li Qingluo, carrying Prince Su, lost her balance and fell downwards again. In the blink of an eye, the two of them rolled into a cave.

Ignoring the pain she felt from the fall, Li Qingluo quickly got up to check on Prince Su's injuries.

"Your Highness Prince Su, Your Highness Prince Su? Wake up, wake up—"

Li Qingluo gently patted Prince Su's face, but there was still no reaction.

Fortunately, the cave was not large, and Duan Rongshi did not die from the fall.

Li Qingluo had just breathed a sigh of relief when she turned her head and saw that the cave was not only quite large, but there was also a huge opening on the other side!

Look, the place where she just missed a step seems to be the atrium of this cave.

Outside the cave, she seemed to hear the gurgling sound of a stream!

Li Qingluo was pleasantly surprised and looked around the cave again.

There was a smooth, large rock and some dry grass.

Li Qingluo immediately went over and spread dry grass on the stone, and then laboriously dragged Prince Su onto the stone.

Then she took off her cloak and covered Prince Su with it.

Then she went outside the cave to check.

Sure enough, there was a stream not far from the door!

Li Qingluo quickly ran over, squatted down, scooped up a mouthful of water, and drank it.

Finally, she was able to survive.

The water tastes sweet, like snow.

She looked around, hoping to gather some firewood.

An hour later, a fire was lit inside the cave.

Unable to find a vessel to boil water, Li Qingluo had no choice but to use fire to heat the knife.

With great effort, she turned Prince Su over, cut open his robe at the wound with a knife, and then looked at the dart embedded in his flesh.

The flesh on Prince Su's shoulders and back was now completely purple. It was unclear whether the poison had penetrated deep into his internal organs and bone marrow. If so, it was likely to be a serious problem.

However, right now, we need to remove this thing as soon as possible in order to stop the spread of more toxins.

Li Qinglu gritted her teeth, used a knife to pry open the rotten flesh near the dart on Prince Su's back, and then slowly took out the hexagonal dart.

Fortunately, because Prince Su had not yet regained his senses, he did not move at all during the entire process.

Li Qingluo tossed the object aside and then quickly applied the crushed herbs she had just gathered in the wild to the wound.

She didn't know the name of the grass.

But ever since she started going into the mountains as a child, she knew that this stuff could heal wounds and stop bleeding.

When Li Qingluo was young, she lived in the mountains and relied on this medicine to avoid suffering much when she was injured alone.

After doing all that, Li Qingluo went outside and scooped up a handful of water with a leaf.

I tried to give him some water, but he just wouldn't react, like he was swallowing pills.

Could it be... that I have to feed him mouth-to-mouth again?
