Chapter 12 Wet Clothes, No Legs and Waist
After Su Ying lit the fire, she stood up and walked to Xiao Jin, reaching out to touch Dabao in his arms.
"Why is it burning again? Give the child to me." Su Ying didn't wait for Xiao Jin to agree and took Dabao away from him.
She sat down next to the fire, took off all of Dabao's clothes and put them in front of the fire to dry. She checked his wounds in the light of the fire. The wounds were not so red and swollen originally, but after being soaked in rain today, the inflammation of the wounds became more serious, which was why the little guy had a fever again.
Su Ying carefully cleaned the wound with gauze, and gave him an anti-inflammatory injection when no one was looking. After she treated Dabao's wound and fed him medicine, she took the dry clothes by the fire and put them on him, then carefully placed him on the dried tiger skin.
After Su Ying carried Dabao away, Xiao Jin's eyes were always on her and Dabao. Seeing how carefully she cleaned Dabao's wound, his brows furrowed even more tightly.
Su Ying's behavior these past two days was completely different from before. If the mole on the back of her neck hadn't been there, he would have suspected that she had become a different person. In the past, when had she ever cared about the life and death of her two children?
After taking care of Dabao, Su Ying went to take care of Zhao's mother. She took off her coat and dried it for her, and secretly gave her injections and medicine.
There was a seven-shaped groove at the deepest part of the cave. She walked in with the remaining torch and lit it. Then she took off her clothes and hung them on a big rock to dry them.
"Su Ying!"
When Su Ying was about to take off her inner underwear, she suddenly heard Xiao Jin's voice mixed with coldness.
She looked up and saw Xiao Jin staring at her with cold black eyes.
Su Ying raised her eyebrows, "Why, you're not going to tell me that even if you lose your legs, you still have a waist?"
Xiao Jin understood what she meant, and the veins on his forehead jumped suddenly, "Shameless! Don't dirty my eyes." After saying that, he looked away as if he was looking at something dirty.
Su Ying snorted coldly and got angry. A wicked smile flashed across her crystal clear eyes. She then stood up and walked to Xiao Jin and squatted down.
Xiao Jin looked at her coldly, and saw her reaching for her belt.
Xiao Jin's eyes darkened and murderous aura burst out from his body. He grabbed her hand and said, "Su Ying, don't think that I won't take your life!"
Su Ying only felt pain in the palm of her hand where he was holding her. This man was so badly injured yet he still had so much strength. His body must be made of steel.
But she approached him without showing any weakness and said, "I saw that your clothes were all wet, so I just wanted to take off your clothes and put them on the fire to dry."
There was only a palm's distance between the two of them. Xiao Jin could smell the faint scent of grass on her body instead of the dirty smell of sweat. After washing, Su Ying's appearance was fully revealed.
In Xiao Jin's memory, Su Ying had always been as delicate and gentle as Xi Shi holding her heart, but the girl in front of him had a heroic look between her brows, and her pupils, like broken stars, were even brighter, something he had never seen before.
This look was not something Su Ying had in the past.
If the person in front of him was still the same person, it could only be that she had disguised herself too well in the past. However, Xiao Jin felt that this possibility was very small. No matter how well a person disguises themselves, there will always be times when they slack off. Xiao Jin once again suspected that the person in front of him was not Su Ying at all.
Xiao Jin held her hand tighter, his deep brows locked on her face, "Who are you? You are not Su Ying at all. Who sent you here?"
Su Ying was stunned for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses and broke free from Xiao Jin's hand, looking at him with a half-smile, "If you doubt my identity, you can verify it yourself. I'm always here to help."
Xiao Jin clenched his fists. Although Su Ying was stunned for only a moment, he still caught the look in her eyes. This woman has become even more shameless after she changed!
Su Ying looked at his deflated look and felt extremely happy. She was too lazy to tease him anymore and turned back to the fire to quickly dry her clothes. Then she threw a bottle of medicine and gauze into Jiang Yang's hands.
"If you don't want your prince's wound to fester, apply medicine to him."
Jiang Yang had just seen the confrontation between the two. He did not refuse and walked up to Xiao Jin with the medicine in his hand. "Your Majesty, I always feel that the evil woman is a bit weird."
He still couldn't believe that the love-crazy idiot could suddenly become so powerful.
Xiao Jin's brows were deeply furrowed. Before he was seriously injured and unconscious, he was sure that the person was still the real Su Ying. However, he was seriously injured and unconscious for a while, and when he woke up, Su Ying was completely changed.
During these few short hours, something must have happened that he didn't know about. However, both children were there at the time, so it seemed that he could only try to ask the children and see if they could explain it.
"Princess, I've gone to get some dry food. You should eat some quickly." After Bai Shuang took good care of Erbao, she went to the official to get some dry food.
Su Ying had no interest in the dry food that could choke someone to death, but she still reached out to take it, and then took out the compressed dry food and two pieces of tiger meat from the bag behind her and gave it to her, "This is for you and Ling'er. Eat this first. I saved it before."
Bai Shuang didn't suspect anything and took the dry food to feed Erbao.
After eating and drinking, Su Ying put on dried clothes, but the fire in the cave was limited and many prisoners were shivering with cold. Many of them stared at Su Ying's bag with eager eyes, because they knew that it was full of roasted meat.
But as soon as they thought about how Su Ying killed the big tiger, they dared not step forward.
Su Ying ate and drank her fill, and only after making sure that Dabao and Mother Zhao were both fine did she lie down beside them and fall asleep.
There was a thunderstorm that night and the rain was particularly heavy.
When it was almost dawn, Su Ying was awakened by thunder. She reached out and touched the foreheads of Dabao and Zhao's mother. After making sure that their high fevers had gradually subsided, she got up and walked to the cave entrance to look at the situation outside.
Seeing that she had no intention of leaving, the officer did not say anything.
"It's a dark day, and I don't know when the rain will stop."
"I'm afraid the rain won't stop before we pass Zhuzhou."
"But we still have to walk at least a hundred miles to Zhuzhou. If the rain continues, I'm afraid that before we reach Zhuzhou, the team will be short of people."
Su Ying listened to the two prisoners' muttering and frowned.
The original owner was a woman who only cared about romance and love. She didn't care about the outside world at all, let alone geography, so she had no idea where they were.
"Uncle, are you saying that the rain won't stop in the short term?" Su Ying asked a big man with a beard.
The big man looked at Su Ying and said slowly, "It is now the rainy season in the southwest. It will only stop for a while. The rain will not stop completely until we reach Zhuzhou in the north."
These words made Su Ying frown even more tightly. There were sick and injured people around her, and if she kept getting wet in the rain, she would have no chance of recovery.
