The white rice was cooked soft and sweet, and the fragrance drifted into Yuan Xichen's nose from time to time, constantly tempting him.
He cooperated and took a deep breath, but this made him feel even hungrier.
This white rice porridge looks easy to swallow without chewing too much.
Yuan Xichen, who was still a little dazed and enjoying his dream, took the porridge with his fair but skinny hands as if possessed by a demon.
He saw the white rice porridge in front of him that looked like snow and swallowed hard a few times.
The dormant glutton in his stomach seemed to be awakened, and kept roaring in his stomach.
"Gurgle! Gurgle! Gurgle!" Several sounds came from his stomach in succession.
Yuan Xichen suddenly felt extremely embarrassed, but he still pretended to be calm and said seriously:
"Well, you guys go down first. If there is anything, I will call you again." Yuan Xichen said a few brief words and prepared to send Yuan Yi and others away.
Yuan Yi's mouth twitched violently a few times, and he pretended not to hear anything.
He first bowed slightly, then turned around and walked out silently.
Just kidding, when he encountered such an embarrassing situation with his master, if he didn't run away in a hurry, he would be in trouble if his master held a grudge against him later!
After watching Yuan Yi and the others leave, Yuan Xichen couldn't wait to bring the porridge to his mouth and took a big sip.
Fortunately, the porridge was no longer scalding hot, just right for him to eat. After drinking it, he immediately felt that his hungry stomach felt much better.
Inside the bare cave, Yuan Xichen quietly enjoyed the mellow feeling of the porridge in his mouth.
The fire next to it was still crackling, and echoes could occasionally be heard in the cave.
His shadow was reflected on the wall of the cave, and from a distance it looked like a beautiful scene of "a handsome man looking for food".
At this time, Chen Yi outside had been whipped thirty times, and his back was covered in blood.
The people who were whipping him did not let him off because they all knew that if they were caught letting him off, the consequences would be even more serious.
But Chen Yi was also very manly. Even though he felt the whip was extremely painful on his body, he did not make any sound while being tortured.
Perhaps he knew in his heart that his master was showing mercy this time, and compared with previous punishments, this was relatively light.
The thirty lashes were quickly completed. After Chen Yi had finished his punishment, the people next to him carefully helped him up.
Try not to let his body move too much to avoid touching his wound.
"Help me get into the carriage directly, and don't go into the cave, lest the master be worried."
Chen Yi's face was pale at this time. He saw his brother preparing to take him to the cave.
He stopped the person who was about to help him go to the cave in time. He certainly would not go there in this state.
After hearing Chen Yi's words, the person who was supporting him was a little hesitant, but still chose to listen to Chen Yi's own arrangements.
After a struggle between his conscience and his desires in his head, he finally said dully:
"Yes! I'll help you over right away, Boss! Just bear with it for a while, and you'll be fine after the medicine is applied."
The man who was supporting Chen Yi was a younger guy with a timid personality. The grown man saw the bloody wound on Chen Yi's back.
He had a bitter face, as if he was about to cry but didn't, and he looked a bit pitiful.
However, Chen Yi had his back to him, so he naturally didn't see his expression. He only felt a burning pain on his back, so naturally he didn't have much to think about other things.
Here, Yuan Yi came out of the cave with his things and went straight to the carriage where Chen Yi was.
He also estimated the time and believed that Chen Yi should have finished being tortured, so he prepared to treat his wounds simply.
Now everyone else outside was doing their job, and countless bonfires were lit.
Yuan Yi walked with the help of the light from the fire and soon came to a very ordinary-looking carriage.
Chen Yi was lying in the carriage at this time, his entire back was covered in blood, which could be described as a bloody mess.
In addition to these new wounds on his back, there were also many old wounds crisscrossing each other, which looked very hideous and terrifying.
"How is it? Do you think you can bear it? If you still feel that you can't bear it, please tell me.
I'll apply some good medicine to your wounds, and it will heal if it doesn't heal."
After Yuan Yi put the things in the carriage, he went to check Chen Yi's wound. He looked quite nervous. He treated Chen Yi as a brother.
Chen Yi groaned softly, his forehead covered with dense beads of sweat. He tilted his head to glance at Yuan Yi, then said while enduring the pain:
"It's bearable, not a big problem. You put the medicine here and I can apply it myself.
The master needs someone to stay with him, so you should go there as soon as possible. I..."
He felt as if every word would rip at the wound on his back. However, he managed to endure the pain and didn't cry out.
Yuan Yi took out the things and did not leave immediately. He pursed his chapped lips tightly and interrupted him:
"I'll take care of your wound first, and then I'll go over. The master doesn't have any serious problems, he just needs to slowly recover.
I have controlled the poison in him. Apart from being unable to walk, there is nothing else wrong with him.
But this is only temporary, and things will get better slowly once the antidote is found.
We are on our way now. If you don't get better soon and we really encounter danger, our situation will be even worse.
I will ask Yuan Er to drive the carriage in the next few days. You should lie down and recuperate first. We can talk to you when your wound is almost healed.
If you need anything else done, just tell me and I'll make the arrangements." Yuan Yi cleaned his wound briefly before sprinkling some medicine on it.
"Hiss!" Maybe it was too painful, Chen Yi couldn't help but utter a word, but then he clenched his teeth tightly.
I tried hard to suppress my uncomfortable feeling and not let myself say another word.
Yuan Yi felt his tense body and glanced at him several times with the corner of his eye. The movements of his hands did not stop at all.
"After our people bring Miss Yu and the others back, you must apologize to others.
I found that our master still pays special attention to them. This is the main reason why you were punished this time.
I guess it’s because you hurt Miss Yu, I guess..., you know! Hey! Hey! Hey! "
