Since her daughter said so, Shen Nian'an hardened her heart, thinking that it would be an experience anyway, and nodded worriedly.
The mother and daughter flew down again. The assassins seemed to be very smart and knew that Zhou Zhaonuan was their vital point. This time, more than ten assassins stabbed at Nuannuan. One of them pointed the tip of the sword directly at Zhou Zhaonuan's delicate neck. The little girl was not big to begin with, and she had lost a lot of strength after continuous fighting. Even if she tried her best, one person could not resist too much.
Shen Nian'an saw that something was wrong, and without caring about the assassin rushing towards her, she directly used her sword to block the tip of the sword that was stabbing at her daughter. Before she could react, a steel knife pierced her right shoulder.
After a "puff" sound, Zhou Zhaonuan's pupils suddenly shook, "Mother, mother, how could this happen?"
The little girl was distraught, her brain in a mess. She watched Shen Nian'an trying to straighten his body and kick an assassin away with one foot, her eyes full of murderous intent.
"Whoever dares to touch my mother, I will fight her to the death, ah..."
He picked up the sword and chopped it hard. When a person is extremely angry, his small body can burst out with great energy. Zhou Zhaonuan exerted force and directly cut off the assassin's head.
At this moment, a large number of shadow guards came. The shadow guards in black threw their robes and fought with the assassins. Both sides were willing to die. Obviously, the shadow guards were slightly better. Seeing their men dead or injured, with broken limbs and debris all over the ground, the men in black gloomy their eyes, and ran away in an instant.
The howling sound of the wind quieted down. When the person left, his spirit relaxed instantly. There was a bloody hole on his body, and his clothes were wet. Shen Nian'an could no longer hold on. He showed a reassuring smile to Zhou Zhaonuan, who had tears in his eyes. Finally, his head tilted and he fell to the ground.
"Mother, mother, wake up."
Nuannuan collapsed and screamed. When Zhou Beichen saw this scene, his body trembled slightly.
Nuan Nuan tried her best to calm herself down, ignoring the blood on her body, hands, and face, and held Shen Nian'an's head in her arms.
"Mother, what should we do now? Oh, we have medicine to stop bleeding in the carriage."
Seeing the clothes dyed crimson layer by layer, Nuannuan's nose felt sore and she couldn't hold back any longer, tears streaming down her face.
When she saw Zhou Beichen, who was walking towards her in a panic and was equally anxious, her eyes were already blurred with tears and she broke down and screamed.
"Dad, Dad, don't come over here. We have hemostatic powder and medicine in the carriage. Go get them quickly."
"yes."
The emperor was not angry when he heard his daughter's order. At this moment, he didn't care about anything else. He ran to the carriage and took out the big box full of medicine.
However, none of them had ever learned how to treat injuries, so they could only sprinkle hemostatic powder on the wound and bandage it tightly.
Seeing his daughter hugging Shen Nian'an tightly and not letting go, Zhou Beichen's heart was hanging tightly. He gently pushed Zhou Zhaonuan away, took a step forward, picked up Shen Nian'an horizontally, and talked as he walked.
"Nuannuan, now is not the time to be sad and upset. Your mother needs medical treatment. Hurry up and get in the carriage. Let's go to the next county to find a doctor."
Zhou Zhaonuan seemed to come back to her senses after being in a daze. She and the other two followed Zhou Beichen and climbed onto the carriage.
Deshun was frightened by the large pool of blood. His eyes were slightly sore, so he wiped them gently. After Zhou Zhaonuan and the others were seated, Deshun quickly got on the carriage and headed to the next place, Jingyuan.
I heard that it is a wealthy place and there are naturally many famous doctors.
Deshun whipped his horse faster, and soon, bursts of sobbing were heard from the carriage again.
"Mother, mother... dear, please don't get into any trouble. Nuannuan is scared, so scared."
Deshun shook his head and unknowingly sped up again.
Zhou Beichen's eyes were already slightly red. After such a long time, this woman had given him two such considerate children. He stroked his forehead, dug his nails into his palms, and kept reciting in his heart.
Shen Nian'an, you must not die, you must not die. If you dare to die, I will kill all your nine clans and all your family members.
There was no conversation along the way. Zhou Beichen just checked from time to time to see if Shen Nian'an was still breathing, and touched his daughter's head, which was already a comfort.
Fortunately, the hemostatic powder worked, and slowly, the wound stopped bleeding, which made Zhou Beichen and Zhou Zhaonuan feel relieved.
Half an hour later, the carriage arrived in Jingyuan. Deshun looked around and finally stopped in front of a clinic.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Zhou Zhaonuan's heart brightened again.
Then Deshun's anxious voice came, "Master, we've arrived at the clinic."
Zhou Zhaonuan hurriedly got up. She jumped out of the carriage first and pulled up the curtain together with Deshun. This time Zhou Beichen moved slowly, fearing that the carriage would be too bumpy and accidentally cause Shen Nian'an's wound to bleed again.
The doctor at the clinic bandaged the wound first. After everything was done, Zhou Zhaonuan couldn't wait to run to the doctor and asked anxiously.
"Doctor, my mother is okay now."
The doctor saw that the little girl in front of him had red eyes from crying, which showed that she was very sad. He hurriedly replied with a smile.
"It's nothing serious, not life-threatening. The sword stabbed a little off-center and missed the heart. Otherwise, even if the Jade Emperor came, he wouldn't be able to save the person."
The doctor stroked his beard as he watched Deshun bring in a large silver ingot and said, "Here's the silver. No need to give me the change."
The doctor looked at him and saw that he had a very upright face.
"It won't take that much. Doctors are always kind-hearted. But, rest assured, I will do my best to treat this lady."
Zhou Zhaonuan cried with joy, as long as mother is okay, as long as she is okay.
She bowed several times to the doctor and said, "Thank you, thank you, doctor. Now, please prepare some medicine for my mother."
The doctor nodded and was about to leave when he turned back and added, "However, this lady has also lost a lot of blood. I'm afraid it will take at least five hours for her to wake up. There's also the risk of a fever during this time. Someone needs to stay here, preferably at all times."
Zhou Zhaonuan was about to speak when Zhou Beichen spoke first, "We have plenty of people guarding here. Doctor, please prescribe the medicine first."
For the first time in his life, Zhou Beichen spoke to someone with a pleading tone in his voice. He was not clear about anything else, but he understood one thing: no matter what, Shen Nian'an could not die.
The doctor nodded. He didn't know where these people came from. He just looked at the woman's serious injuries. Although her life was not in danger, she would still suffer. Naturally, he hoped that the woman's husband would treat her well.
Perhaps because he was a kind-hearted doctor, the doctor shook his head and walked out. He wanted to go back to the clinic to boil medicine.
