Li Sisi glanced at the man's abdomen. The blood was very dark and had soaked a large area of the surrounding clothes.
She squatted down and handed the things in her hand to him, saying with concern: "Sir, here are medicines and food, you can take care of yourself."
Sima Shaoyu frowned, his sharp eagle eyes relaxed their vigilance, and his hoarse voice sounded as if he hadn't been exposed to water for a long time: "Could you please give me a ride, young lady? I will never forget your life-saving grace."
Li Sisi was a little embarrassed. After thinking for a while, she stood up and turned to face Li Nian.
Before she could open her mouth, she was interrupted by Li Nian's words: "Sir, it's not that we don't want to take you with us, it's just that it's really inconvenient for two women like us, and besides, we're not going this way."
Li Nian said loudly, "Sisi, let's go."
Li Sisi hesitated to speak, and finally stuffed the things in her hand to the strange man who was half leaning against the tree: "Well, why don't you move to the middle of the road? If my horse hadn't run off just now, I wouldn't have noticed you. If you sit on the side of the road, maybe you'll meet someone willing to take you."
"Thank you for your kindness, young lady."
Li Sisi saw him lower his head and his hoarse voice was muffled. She felt a little bit reluctant, but finally she hardened her heart and turned around to climb into the carriage.
The driver shook his head helplessly, then got into the carriage and continued on his journey.
Li Sisi came into the carriage and said in a worried voice, "Niannian, isn't it a bad idea for us to just stand by and watch him die? In this desolate mountain area, if he encounters a wild beast at night, he'll be dead for sure."
The driver continued as he drove the carriage, "Miss Sisi is right. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. I see that the young man is seriously injured. If we give him a ride, it would be a convenient way to go. We might even be able to save a life."
Li Sisi pulled Li Nian and said, "Why don't we take him with us?"
Sima Shaoyu's deep eagle eyes stared at the carriage running farther and farther away, and the last bit of hope was completely extinguished.
He lowered his head, took two bites of the biscuit and chewed it expressionlessly, then tore open the clothes on his abdomen and put the bottle of medicine they had just given him under his nose and sniffed it.
It is a medicine to stop bleeding.
After forcing himself to endure waves of dizziness, Sima Shaoyu sprinkled the medicine on the wound with shaking hands, but because of his unclear mind and trembling hands, not much medicine powder landed on the wound.
The sound of "da da da" of the carriage came again, and it seemed to be heading from north to south.
"Whoa--" The coachman stopped the carriage and heard footsteps coming towards him.
"Sir, shall we take you to the next city to see a doctor?" It was a woman's voice.
Sima Shaoyu didn't even raise his head and replied in a hoarse voice, "No need. It's not on the way."
"Did you hear that? He himself said it's not on the way, let's go quickly." A soft voice sounded.
Sima Shaoyu remembered this voice, that of a woman who was gentle and soft but extremely cold-hearted.
He suddenly looked up, and when he saw the gorgeous woman in the light blue dress in front of him, a light flashed in his dark brown eyes: "Are you going northwest?"
Li Sisi nodded. "Yes," she explained with a smile. "I was just joking with you. You're seriously injured. Can we give you a ride and drop you off in the next city?"
Sima Shaoyu hurriedly expressed his gratitude, "Thank you both ladies for your kindness in taking me in. I will always remember your kindness and will repay you in the future."
"You're welcome. We can't just stand by and watch someone die," said Li Sisi, and together with the coachman, she helped Sima Shaoyu into the carriage.
When Li Sisi touched Sima Shaoyu's body, she was shocked to find that his body was frighteningly hot.
"Gee--" the coachman drove the carriage forward.
Li Sisi placed the man in the carriage and hurriedly said to Li Nian, "He seems to have a fever. I don't know if it's an inflammation of the wound."
Hearing this, Li Nian took out a bottle of anti-inflammatory medicine from her bag and said, "His wound is in his stomach. Please help him take off his clothes and take a look at the wound."
Sima Shaoyu heard the conversation between the two in a daze, and took off his outer robe in cooperation.
Li Sisi looked at the wounds on his body and her heart couldn't help but tremble. This man had too many wounds on his body, new and old, healed and rotten.
She held the medicine bottle in her hand, stunned for a moment, not knowing where to start.
Li Nian took the medicine bottle from her and whispered, "Let me do it."
He took the medicine bottle from Li Sisi's hand and applied the medicine carefully. When the medicine was almost applied, he said, "Sisi, tear the extra cloth in the bag into strips."
"Oh, okay." Li Sisi quickly opened the bundle and tore out long strips of cloth.
Li Nian casually picked up one of the cloth strips and said in a soft voice without any emotion: "Cooperate with me and I'll bandage your wound."
Sima Shaoyu's mind was basically groggy at this time. After hearing Li Nian's words, he still sat up straight, raised his hand slightly, opened his mouth, and said in a dry voice, "Thank you."
Li Nian did not respond, but just bandaged the wound seriously.
He had too many wounds on his body, including his chest and back. The basic medicine prepared by his two best friends was not much to begin with, and after using it on him once, it was basically used up.
After a long while, Sima Shaoyu's wounds were basically taken care of. As for the rotten ones, she didn't know how to scrape the flesh to heal them. She just sprinkled some anti-inflammatory medicine on them and handed them over to the doctor when they reached the next city.
Li Nian sighed softly, returned to his seat, and said to Li Sisi, "Give him some water. If he doesn't drink enough water with such a high fever, it's easy for something to happen."
"Okay." Li Sisi took out her water bag, uncorked it, and placed the outlet against Sima Shaoyu's mouth. "I'll give you some water."
Sima Shaoyu slapped his lips and drank half the water bag in one breath.
After drinking the water, Sima Shaoyu felt a little better. "My name is Ma Shaoyu. May I know what you two ladies call me? If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely thank you for saving my life."
Li Sisi was about to speak when Li Nian spoke first, "You're welcome, sir. We're just giving you a ride. It's nothing to be proud of."
Her eyes fell on Sima Shaoyu's sturdy body. His wheat-colored skin and muscles gave people a feeling of vigorous strength even when he was seriously injured and relaxed.
In addition, the wounds on his body looked very much like knife wounds. To avoid getting into trouble, Li Nian continued in a cold tone, "We'll drop you off at the pharmacy in the next city. As for your name, we can't reveal it."
Sima Shaoyu looked at the woman with a soft voice but a cold and distant attitude in surprise. She looked soft and charming, but her attitude from beginning to end was always cold.
"Okay, I understand," Sima Shaoyu said in a dry voice.
"Can I close my eyes and take a rest now? When we reach the next city, you can call me?" Sima Shaoyu asked cautiously.
He always felt that this girl might really throw him off the carriage at any time if she was unhappy.
"Okay," Li Nian said calmly.
Hearing her permission, Sima Shaoyu felt relieved. His dizzy head had been able to hold on until now, which was already the limit.
