Chapter 299: Sadomasochism (Part 4)
Gu Qingcheng walked down the river. As soon as her figure disappeared, a hunting dog found her near the slope.
The hound was walking in circles, barking.
Apparently, it couldn't smell any more.
"Princess! The Black Panther is over there!"
"Chase!"
The person who spoke was a little girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old. She was wearing a bright red riding suit, holding a whip in her hand, and there was a determination in her eyes to win.
Just now at the bottom of the valley, I didn’t find that person.
Chu Zhao was somewhat surprised, and even had a faint fear.
Could it be that the plot was changed? She just did it again and made some changes in advance, so that the bastard fell off the carriage instead of being assassinated at the post station.
They were all seriously injured, but the outcome was different because of her intervention.
Originally, Chu Zhao was worried that the man would surely die after falling from such a high cliff.
At that time, Chu Zhao was still thinking, "Let's just take a gamble! If you are lucky enough to survive, we can continue!"
"If you die prematurely at the bottom of the valley, our grudge will be written off!"
But the problem was that when Chu Zhao led his men, hunting dogs and others to the bottom of the valley, he only saw the broken pieces of the carriage and the smashed horse, but no one.
The guards did find some blood-stained pieces of clothing, which looked like they had been dragged away by wild beasts.
But Chu Zhao didn't believe that the bastard would die so easily!
She stood at the bottom of the valley, raised her head and looked up.
I found that the cliff was really, really high.
After falling from such a high place, the carriage was smashed to pieces, but the man was not killed, which is enough to prove that he was lucky.
Of course, it is also possible that he fell to death and the beast dragged away his body.
But Chu Zhao refused to give up.
"If he's still alive, I want to see him! If he's dead, I want to see his body!"
“Even if you are dragged away by a wild beast, you must find the beast.”
Even if he had to dig open the beast's belly and see only a pile of crumbs, Chu Zhao would still make sure of the dog's life or death!
The hound sniffed the carriage, then carefully smelled the pieces of clothing, then whooshed away.
"Chase!"
Chu Zhao seemed to see hope. He shouted and led the guards to chase after them.
Running and checking along the way, the group followed the hounds to the river.
And then, nothing happened.
The smell is gone!
The hounds were helpless.
However, Chu Zhao still found some clues by the river.
She saw clear footprints in the mud by the river!
"This bastard is still alive!"
"Could it be true that 'the evil lasts for a thousand years'?"
Chu Zhao didn't know whether he should be happy or disappointed.
She stared at the footprints, lost in thought.
"Princess, he may have gone up or down the river!"
The guards are also experienced people.
When she saw the footprints by the river, she knew that the man the princess was chasing was still alive.
But there are only a few footprints.
There weren't many clues left.
The guards made an inference based on their own experience: the man must have gone along the river.
I just don’t know whether he is going up or down!
Logically, it should be downward.
This river flows down from the mountains. The lower reaches are flat land, and that is where there are villages.
Going up means continuing to go up the mountain and getting away from human habitation.
Considering that person's identity, he was born into a noble family, was spoiled, and it seemed reasonable that he didn't know some common sense in the wild.
So, it is possible for that person to go up or down.
"No need to bother!"
Chu Zhao came back to his senses, gripped the whip tightly, looked around, and suddenly smiled, "Let's go to the post station!"
The monk can escape, but the temple cannot! The dog man did not come to Fengchao alone.
He also had followers, as well as envoys and officials sent by the Qing Dynasty.
And those people lived in the post station.
If the dog man escapes from danger, he will definitely return to the post station.
He is just a spoiled little prince now, not the vicious wolf he will be in a few years.
Even if he encountered an "accident", he instinctively trusted and relied on his own people.
In his previous life, he turned evil because he suffered the death of his loved ones and betrayal by his family.
Now, he is still innocent and kind! Chu Zhao thought firmly.
"yes!"
The guards agreed, pulling the hunting dogs and leading the horses, and followed Chu Zhao respectfully.
…
Gu Qingcheng deliberately moved three or four meters away from the river just because she didn't want to leave footprints.
After walking for a while with difficulty and hearing no more sound behind her, her tense nerves relaxed a little.
However, she still didn't completely relax.
They are not out of danger yet, so this is not the time for her to feel at ease.
Finally, just when Gu Qingcheng was about to give up and almost fainted, a wooden house appeared in her sight.
There seemed to be a human figure swaying in the small courtyard of the wooden house.
Gu Qingcheng bit the tip of her tongue hard, and the intense pain gave her temporary clarity of mind.
Taking a deep breath, Gu Qingcheng walked towards the cabin with difficulty.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
However, she was too tired, and her broken leg was in excruciating pain after going through so much torture.
Gu Qingcheng exchanged her physical strength for her appearance, and now the physical strength of this body is only a pitiful 63 points.
Just the level of ordinary people.
Slightly better than a weak chicken.
But she was injured and had been struggling for a long time. The fact that she was able to hold on until now showed that Gu Qingcheng's will was strong enough.
At this moment, this body has reached its limit.
Plop! Gu Qingcheng finally fell to the ground.
Gu Qingcheng gritted her teeth and didn't let herself faint completely.
Half asleep and half awake, Gu Qingcheng saw a figure rushing out of the yard and heading towards her.
The moment she closed her eyes, Gu Qingcheng vaguely saw a pretty face.
"Sir? Sir, what's wrong with you?"
"...Oh, how did you get hurt so badly?"
Gu Qingcheng was drowsy and seemed to hear the woman's voice.
She was very perceptive and even in such a situation, she could still vaguely feel that there were obvious pauses when the woman spoke.
She should have seen the face of this body clearly.
A mountain dweller far away from the village would definitely be surprised, dazed and stunned if he suddenly saw such a handsome young man.
Gu Qingcheng understood, but her character value had already dropped to 40 points, and she began to have a "meaningful heart".
…
It was the first time that Wu Yanniang saw such a handsome man when she was eighteen years old.
He is so good-looking, with such fair skin and beautiful eyes and eyebrows.
It feels more beautiful than the Bodhisattva in the temple.
Wu Yanniang had never been to school and could not think of the adjective to describe him as “a gentleman without parallel in the world”.
She just thought it looked good, her heart beat faster, and her slightly tanned face felt red and hot.
Taking a deep breath, Wu Yanniang regained her senses, dragged Gu Qingcheng back to the yard, and moved her to her bed.
Her father was a hunter and was bound to get injured from time to time, so the family always had medicine for external injuries.
Wu Yanniang boiled some hot water and found some clean linen.
She carefully peeled off the cloth, removed the wooden board that fixed the broken leg, cut off the trouser leg, revealing the bloody wound.
"Such a serious injury!"
Even though Wu Yanniang had seen many prey and treated her father's wounds, she was still frightened by the hideous broken leg.
She couldn't help feeling a little distressed: Alas, it's amazing that this young man could still make it all the way here after suffering such serious injuries.
She sighed while her hands kept moving.
Clean the wound and check for broken bones and debris.
After touching it gently, I found that the broken leg bone seemed to have been reconnected.
"It saves me the trouble of looking for a doctor."
Wu Yanniang grunted and began to apply medicine to Gu Qingcheng.
The white medicine powder was sprinkled on the wound. Perhaps the antiseptic drug in it irritated the wound.
Although Gu Qingcheng was unconscious, she was still twitching instinctively.
"Don't worry! The medicine in my house was left by my father. It's very useful! It can stop bleeding, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. It's all excellent!"
Wu Yanniang seemed to have forgotten that Gu Qingcheng was still unconscious and hurriedly explained.
After explaining, I realized that the handsome boy still had his eyes closed.
She couldn't help but pursed her lips with amusement and looked at me. I didn't look like myself anymore.
After applying the medicine, the board was re-secured and the upper leg was wrapped with linen.
Gu Qingcheng is still in a coma.
Wu Yanniang thought about it, her eyes scanned Gu Qingcheng's body, and then she found a small piece of white jade exposed at the lapel of her clothes.
She suppressed her shyness, reached out and grasped the jade, pulled it, and revealed its full appearance.
It turned out to be a jade pendant hanging around his neck. It should have been worn around his waist, but he carefully hid it in his lapel.
This is enough to prove that this thing is very important to him.
Wu Yanniang didn't know if she was possessed by a ghost, but she took the jade pendant off and hid it in her arms...
