After carrying the person back to her bamboo house, Aci examined the wound. Finally, she brushed aside the person's hair and was stunned for a moment when she saw the person's face.
There are still such beautiful girls in the world, whose beauty is not diminished even though they have a few scratches on their faces.
It's better not to leave scars on such a beautiful face. Ah Ci then applied ointment to the other person's face.
After covering her with the blanket, he went out of the bedroom to prepare the medicine.
…
When Wan Ge woke up, her eyes were full of confusion. She felt a headache and tried to remember something but couldn't recall anything.
She only remembered that when she first opened her eyes, she was chased and struck by several bolts of lightning. She used her sword to move away from the area where the lightning struck, but the lightning still chased her all the way to the stream.
She eventually succumbed to unconsciousness, but logically, she should have returned to the sword after falling unconscious. However, for some reason, she did not return.
Moreover, she had no idea why she was struck by lightning or where she was.
Wan Ge felt pain all over her body, but when she looked down, she saw many bandage marks on her body, which clearly indicated that someone had treated her.
Curious, she went outside and saw a person decocting medicine by a stove. "Who are you?"
Perhaps because of her injury, or perhaps because she had just woken up, Wan Ge's voice was still somewhat hoarse when she spoke.
Upon hearing the voice, Aci immediately turned around: "Miss, you're awake. You're so badly injured, it's best if you don't get out of bed."
"I'm fine. Who are you? Are you my master?"
“Master?” Aci was somewhat surprised to hear this word.
Seeing the other person's confused look, Aci shook her head: "I am not your master, you are a maid? Why did you faint by the stream? And why are you so badly injured?"
"I am a sword spirit. Perhaps it was because of my tribulation that I was struck by heavenly lightning."
"Sword Spirit?" Aci was somewhat surprised when she heard these two words.
There are no cultivators in their world; it's just that some storytellers tell folk tales, which leads to this fantastical notion.
Wan Ge nodded and picked up the Zhaoye Sword she was holding: "This sword is mine, but I don't know why I can't go back. Maybe it's related to my amnesia."
Logically, Blade Spirit should recover from her injuries faster after returning to fitness training, but for some unknown reason, she cannot go back and can only heal slowly.
"You're not joking, are you, young lady?" Aci looked at the other person's clear eyes and serious expression, still finding it unbelievable.
Wan Ge looked puzzled again, not understanding what he meant by joking.
Seeing that the other person wasn't joking, Aci spoke again: "You really don't remember anything."
Wan Ge nodded, and at the same time, he realized that the person beside him had not formed a bond with him, just as he had said, he was not his master.
She couldn't sense her contract; perhaps her master was no longer alive? Otherwise, she would have formed a contract with someone else, wouldn't she?
But if he weren't there, and the master died, the sword spirit would fall into a deep sleep along with the sword. But she didn't…
Thinking of this, Wan Ge seemed to remember something else. Could it be that her going back was related to this?
Aci opened her mouth in surprise, but in the end she didn't say anything more: "You may have lost your memory due to injury. It's okay, I'll help you find it slowly."
As Wan Ge looked at the person speaking in a very gentle tone, a figure flashed through her mind, but it was too fast for her to catch.
I tried hard to remember who the other person was, but I just couldn't.
“Thank you. You can be my master,” Wan Ge said earnestly again.
Aci paused for a moment, then shook her head with a smile.
To him, the person in front of him was a life, and... someone he fell in love with at first sight. How could he possibly want to become her master?
But… Aci believed her when she said she was a sword spirit. He felt that the woman in front of him didn't seem to be lying, and he also believed her when she said she had lost her memory.
He didn't know why, but he wanted to believe everything the person in front of him said.
"Your injury hasn't healed yet, you should rest more."
Wan Ge could feel the pain in her body, but as a sword spirit who had been tempered and refined, she could still accept this pain.
…
When Aci returned indoors after decocting the medicine, she noticed that Wan Ge was bleeding in some places. Perhaps the noise she made when she got up had aggravated her wounds.
Aci put the medicine aside, wanting it to cool down a bit, and then bent down to treat her wound. She gently sprinkled the powder on her injured area and softly asked, "Does it hurt?"
Wan Ge shook her head: "It's okay, I'm not in pain."
Seeing the obvious heartache in the other person's eyes, Wan Ge felt a strange, indescribable feeling, with a hint of sweetness in her heart.
"I'm really not in pain," Wan Ge added, not wanting him to worry.
Aci also realized that she was no ordinary person, and her endurance was probably better. Indeed... if it were an ordinary girl, suffering such serious injuries and so many wounds, she would probably have cried long ago.
She acted like a normal person and got up right away.
Aci reached out and touched her hair, sighed softly, and took the medicine when she felt it wasn't so hot anymore.
Then I saw her finish the medicine with a blank expression, as if she had just drunk a bowl of ordinary water.
Aci then took out two more candied fruits: "If they're bitter, you can eat one."
Wan Ge didn't actually find it bitter, but seeing his expression, she obediently picked one up and put it in her mouth, the sweet taste spreading from her mouth.
