After all that, she was exhausted and covered in sweat, and both of them had a lot of scratches and bruises on their bodies.
Fortunately, the herbs were finally found, along with a small water source, which made things a little better.
I crushed the herbs and ground them with water. Heating them wasn't practical, so I fed them to him while they were still cold.
I don't know how long their situation will last, I just hope he wakes up soon.
If this is how a relationship is built, then she would rather just watch from afar.
"Cough cough cough, cough cough cough."
Hearing a faint cough, Xi Yi was overjoyed and immediately checked on Feng Qing, seeing that it was a sign that he was about to wake up.
At this moment, Feng Qing slowly opened her eyes and looked at Xi Yi.
At first, my mind was a bit foggy and I couldn't see clearly, but I gradually regained my senses as my vision cleared.
He tried to get up, but found that he didn't have much strength. Xi Yi quickly helped him to a comfortable place to lie down.
"Are we at the bottom of a cliff?" Feng Qing asked uncertainly.
Xi Yi said, "Yes, you were badly injured at the bottom of the cliff and were unconscious for a whole day. You only woke up at this time today."
"Thank you for your hard work, and thank you again."
Feng Qing spoke politely but distantly. Xi Yi was somewhat disappointed, but didn't say anything. Seeing that he was about to get up, she helped him up.
Because she lost her balance, Feng Qing fell onto her, took a step back, broke a tree branch, and almost fell to the ground.
A hint of panic flashed in both of their eyes. Feng Qing forced herself to stand up straight so that Xi Yi could stand up straight as well.
It wasn't that Feng Qing was heavy, but rather that she was weak.
"I'm sorry, I almost made you fall."
"You don't need to apologize, I'm the one who should apologize."
Feng Qing wasn't used to her current state, like a wronged little wife, and she felt extremely uncomfortable herself.
"Senior Feng Qing, I..."
"We're still young, and there are some things we can't say out loud, so..."
"I see."
The conversation turned awkward, and neither of them spoke.
"us……"
"us……"
The two turned their heads at the same time and said the same thing, and then the atmosphere became strange again.
"Let me speak first! We need to leave here as soon as possible and find the others, otherwise we won't be as lucky as we were last time."
"Okay, I'll help you walk."
Seeing Feng Qing looking over, Xi Yi quickly explained, "I didn't mean anything by it. You're still injured, so I'm helping you walk faster."
"Thank you for your help."
The two set off and walked for quite a while without seeing anyone. As it was getting dark, they were preparing to find a safe place to rest for the night when they saw smoke in the distance, which made them quite happy.
"Don't rush. We're outnumbered and injured, so we don't know if the people ahead are safe. Let's approach carefully, see if they're reliable, and then decide whether to reveal ourselves."
Xi Yi felt that what he said made a lot of sense. She had just acted impulsively, so she quickly suppressed her joy and nodded to Feng Qing.
As she got closer, Xiyi immediately saw her brother, but she didn't recognize anyone else. Her brother was also very enthusiastic towards one of the women inside.
Xi Yi smiled knowingly; this kid had finally figured it out.
That makes sense, though. That girl is so pretty, it's normal for her to be quick-witted.
“Senior Feng Qing, I know him. That’s my brother. You can go out.”
Turning his head, he found that Feng Qing looked a little strange; he seemed to be staring blankly in that direction.
Xi Yi's joy vanished instantly. She clenched her fists, unconsciously took a step back, and snapped a tree branch in the process.
Because the only girl Feng Qing was looking at was the one her brother was fawning over, and the look in his eyes was very complex. She didn't understand the others, but she understood the longing in his eyes.
Senior Feng Qing knows that girl and even likes her.
The thought of this possibility made her a little sad. She had just mentally prepared herself when the person showed up.
"Who? Who is it?"
One of the people inside spoke up, and two people immediately came over, but neither of them did anything else.
As expected, they were discovered.
"Xiyi, so you've been here all this time. I've been looking for you these past few days."
Northwest rushed over and started asking Xiyi all sorts of questions, but Xiyi was feeling down and didn't listen to much of what he was saying.
She stared blankly at the woman, not even knowing why she was looking at her.
"Sister, this is Lin Zhi. I owe you a lot this time, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to see me."
Lin Zhi didn't look in their direction, but instead walked towards Feng Qing with a gentle smile.
"Xiao Fengqing, so you've come all this way, and gotten yourself into such a mess. Where is Si Chen?"
After entering, she didn't rush to find anyone. She wanted to take her time and give them some surprises. Unexpectedly, she met Feng Qing today.
“I haven’t met him since I came in; he must have his own things to do.”
"Oh, I see! Come here first, let me heal your wounds. It's not good for your health to continue like this. After you're healed, we'll go find him together."
Feng Qing nodded, glanced at Xi Yi, and followed her.
Lin Zhi glanced at Xi Yi, then smiled and said as if she had seen her, "You must be Xi Yi, the younger sister from Northwest! You're so pretty, but we have things to do right now, so please wait a bit."
"It's okay, it's okay, you guys go ahead with your work, I can keep an eye on my sister."
Northwest was clearly bewitched, and his words terrified Xiyi.
Is this still her brother? How could he be like this?
"That's good! Xiao Fengqing, let's go!"
The two went to a tent, where someone was guarding it.
Here, before they arrived, there was only her brother, the only man, and everyone else was a woman, and they all listened to Lin Zhi.
In a place where you could easily get lost even if you just walked in, how could such a coincidence happen?
But she didn't think much of it. Instead, she looked at the tent. What kind of treatment would need to be done inside the tent?
She was extremely uncomfortable, so she looked at her brother with a very unfriendly gaze.
"What did you just say? How come you're about to die?"
"Is that so..."
Northwest then recounted what had happened to them, but Xi Yi didn't pay much attention to it, instead keeping an eye on the other side.
Those people were so orderly; they hadn't moved an inch or even glanced at them. They were like a bunch of clowns.
"Didn't you notice they were acting a bit strange? Which school are they from? Why haven't they said a word?"
"ah?"
Northwest was taken aback by her seemingly irrelevant question and didn't immediately understand.
"How can you be so stupid? How did you even pass the exam? I have serious doubts."
