Seeing that she didn't respond, Meng Zhelan realized something was wrong.
Taking advantage of Xiaoxi's inattention, she sprinkled a sedative over her.
A few breaths later, Li Xi softly collapsed into her arms, his breathing becoming even and deep.
Sun Tiantian took the bag from her and carried it on her back. "Miss Lan, the senior is waiting for us in the pavilion ahead."
"Let's hurry up and leave, we can't let anyone find Xiaoxi."
Seeing her granddaughter covered in blood, Hongying panicked, "Is she injured?"
"No, it's someone else's blood."
Inside the carriage, Meng Zhelan spoke softly to Hongying.
The three fell silent for a moment. If the world knew that Xiaoxi was like this, it would definitely cause a huge uproar.
Meng Zhelan took out the newly developed pills, dissolved them in water, and fed them to Li Xi little by little.
Then we waited quietly for her to wake up.
Not long after they left, the officers and soldiers arrived.
Corpses lay scattered at the village entrance, their blood staining the soil red, and the air was thick with the pungent smell of rust and an unsettling silence.
The officers and soldiers looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock and fear.
Fortunately, only bandits died, and the villagers were unharmed.
The once clear and boundless blue sky has been quietly covered by a layer of gray veil.
Then, snowflakes began to drift gently down from the sky.
Li Xi's eyelids trembled slightly, and when she woke up, she found herself lying in a carriage.
Grandmother, Lan'er, and Tian Tian were surrounding her.
"Why are you here?" she asked in surprise.
Hongying gently stroked Li Xi's hair, her eyes filled with tenderness and lingering fear: "Silly child, you've suffered so much."
Countless images flooded her mind, and Li Xi finally remembered what had happened when she left the inn yesterday.
It turns out that the inner demon she had always feared was actually because another person lived inside her body! In later terms, she had a dual personality!
This personality not only possesses profound inner strength and astonishingly high martial arts skills, but also has incredibly powerful abilities.
However, this personality also has huge problems—it is bloodthirsty, loves fighting, and is very prone to impulsiveness!
Did this personality awaken unexpectedly three years ago when her master was almost killed and she was ambushed and then retaliated?
As Li Xi recalled all of this, a complex and indescribable emotion welled up in her heart.
She died unexpectedly in her previous life and arrived in this unknown dynasty.
The original body was dead, so why did her soul from another world end up here?
Is the other personality in this body something that the original owner had been hiding for a long time, or a second personality that only awakened after her arrival?
A series of mysteries swirled in Li Xi's mind like a fog, leaving her feeling confused and helpless.
"Xiaoxi, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Meng Zhelan interrupted her thoughts.
She shook her head. "No, it's just that there are some things I can't figure out, and I have no clue how to deal with them."
"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it anymore. Just get some rest," Hongying comforted her.
Everything that seems incomprehensible will eventually come to light in some way, perhaps now, or perhaps someday in the future.
She couldn't figure it out, and then drifted off to sleep again.
I never expected that she would sleep for three days straight.
Qin Xiaolin found Huang Banxian in Jingcheng. "Immortal, I was in dire need of help. I apologize for any offense I may have caused."
Having said that, Qin Xiaolin gave Huang Banxian no time to react. He picked him up and tossed him onto the back of the golden eagle like a chick.
He then quickly mounted the golden eagle and, without hesitation, steered it southward at breakneck speed.
"Master Feng, even the most important matters can wait until I've finished that bite of meat!"
Huang Banxian let out a cry of surprise, but his voice was instantly swallowed up by the howling cold wind and dissipated into the air.
However, Qin Xiaolin was extremely anxious at this moment and couldn't care less about anything else. He only wanted to get to Nanzhou as soon as possible.
Nanzhou, Tongfu Inn
Li Xi was fast asleep. The room was filled with a faint medicinal fragrance, and the sunlight outside the window dappled her slightly pale face.
"Lan'er, is Xiaoxi really alright? It's been several days, and she still hasn't woken up." Hongying looked at the lifeless person on the bed, her brows furrowed, and she sighed with worry.
Meng Zhelan was sitting by the bed, carefully soaking each silver needle in the medicinal solution with gentle and skillful movements.
Hearing Hongying's words, she looked up and comforted her, "Grandmother, don't worry. Xiaoxi is just asleep. I've checked her over many times, and there's nothing wrong with her body. Perhaps it's because her body is still fighting against her inner demons that she's sleeping so soundly."
She gently picked up a silver needle, carefully examined the sharpness of its tip, and then cautiously put it back in its place.
Then, she took a mint leaf from the porcelain bowl next to her and gently placed it under Xiaoxi's nose, hoping to stimulate her to wake up.
Hongying frowned, her eyes revealing anxiety and unease.
"Seniors, are you there?" Qin Xiaolin's voice rang out from outside the door.
He learned from Li Yang that Xiao Xi had fallen into a coma again, and after finding Huang Banxian, he rushed over without stopping.
Everyone was very worried about Li Xi's current condition.
Sometimes normal, sometimes violent, it is no longer bound by any rules of time or emotion.
Such fickleness is like a string that could snap at any moment.
Who knows if she'll completely lose control next time!
Qin Xiaolin never expected that Xiaoxi's condition would become so bad after he had been gone for just a few days.
"Master Huang, thank you for your trouble." Now that he had no other choice but to rely on Master Huang, he bowed respectfully.
The wind in the air was exceptionally cold, and Huang Banxian still hadn't recovered.
His lips trembled. "Look, for General Li's sake, I won't hold it against you."
As Huang Banxian spoke, he staggered closer to Li Xi, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
Unlike ordinary doctors, his way of seeing patients is unique.
He didn't rush to take his pulse or ask about his symptoms, but instead slowly closed his eyes.
Take a deep breath and gather your energy in your palm. Then place your palm on top of Li Xi's head.
A warm and subtle energy emanated from Huang Banxian's palm, slowly seeping into Li Xi's body. His tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed, as if he were sensing something.
"The inner demons enter my dreams, and they are difficult to unravel," Huang Banxian murmured to himself, his voice heavy with emotion.
Meng Zhelan observed quietly from the side, praying in her heart that Huang Banxian could help Xiaoxi overcome this difficulty.
Qin Xiaolin stood nervously to the side, his eyes fixed on Li Xi's face, hoping for a miracle.
Hongying's hands clenched unconsciously, her nails almost digging into her palms, but she still forced herself not to make a sound, afraid of disturbing Huang Banxian's diagnosis.
Huang Banxian slowly withdrew his palm, looked at everyone, and said with a solemn expression: "Xiaoxi's inner demons are much more complicated than we imagined. They have penetrated into the depths of her soul and are intertwined with her will, making them difficult to separate."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaolin's heart tightened: "Is there any way to save them?"
