"Excuse me... could you try another position? Like, maybe carry me on my back?"
Chen Kuang was held in the arms of the black-armored guard and endured for three seconds.
Finally, he couldn't help it and spoke politely despite the pain.
Qingcuo glanced down at him and asked, "Why?"
“…”
It's not a matter of dignity, but the princess hug is really a bit gay, man.
Do you really think it's okay for two grown men to use this position?
Well, maybe the ancient people were conservative and didn’t really have the concept of male-male separation…
Thinking of this, and seeing Qingcuo's as if it was a matter of course, Chen Kuang didn't know what to say.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Qingcuo thought for a moment and said:
"Feeling pain? That's because your leg is broken, not because I'm holding you in a wrong position."
Chen Kuang: “?”
Could this be a misunderstanding?
Could it be that he thought I was complaining that his hug wasn't good enough or gentle enough?
How thick-skinned must one be to think that the severe pain from a broken bone is caused by a posture problem... It's a bit insulting.
Chen Kuang explained: "There are three types of disabilities: crippled, disabled, and seriously disabled. They are all different. I am blind, not stupid."
"I know."
"So you think I didn't know my leg was broken?"
"I'm afraid you don't know."
“…”
Chen Kuang took a breath and forced a smile: "Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness."
Qingcuo said, "You're welcome."
Chen Kuang finally understood.
This guy is basically a Slowpoke and can't understand human language.
Chen Kuang no longer protested the princess hug and remained silent, but fortunately, after the interruption, he had adapted to the severe pain in his legs and it was no longer so painful.
Qingcuo glanced at his pale face, which was tense due to his subconscious clenching of teeth, and showed a hint of surprise in his eyes. He took the initiative to speak.
"So you really know your leg is broken."
Chen Kuang didn't say anything.
Qingcuo said calmly, "I thought you had no sense of pain. After all, it would be considered incredible for an ordinary person not to faint instantly from this kind of pain."
His eyes were calm: "And you...didn't say a word."
Chen Kuang's eyebrows jumped, and before he could speak, the respectful voice of a strange jailer came from the front.
"Sir! What are you doing..."
"Open the door."
The newly replaced jailer was originally wondering why the black-armored guard was holding a person, but then he saw large amounts of blood dripping from Chen Kuang's dangling clothes, staining his body below the knees red.
He immediately fell silent and quickly reached out to open the heavy iron door of the prison.
Watching Qingcuo walk into it, a horrifying trail of blood meandered all the way.
As soon as Chu Wenruo heard the noise, she quickly stood up, walked to the edge of the cell, and looked out. There was a hint of tears in her beautiful eyes.
Qingcuo had killed the two jailers decisively before taking away Chen Kuang, her only support at the moment, which frightened the weak little woman.
Chen Kuang could still hear her helpless and desperate cries when he left.
Seeing Chen Kuang coming back again, he was overjoyed.
But when she got closer, Chu Wenruo noticed something strange. Seeing the extremely glaring bloodstain, her expression froze and her breathing almost stopped.
The jailer opened the cell door and Qingcuo leaned over to put Chen Kuang down.
He was even considerate enough to let him lean against the railing on Chu Wenruo's side.
Chu Wenruo approached slowly and stiffly, stretched out his hand tremblingly, and saw Chen Kuang sitting against the wall with his legs stretched out. His shins had collapsed, and the tragic scene was almost unbearable to look at.
"Mr. Chen..."
Chu Wenruo's beautiful eyes were immediately filled with tears, which flowed down her cheeks. The corners of her slightly drooping eyes were red, and she looked pitiful.
She could hardly imagine how painful such torture would be. Her heart felt as if it was being gripped and crushed by an invisible hand.
Her words were almost choked with sobs, and she could only reach her hand through the gap in the railing and carefully and gently wipe away the cold sweat from Chen Kuang's forehead with her fingers.
The beautiful woman's eyes were blurred with tears, and her face was full of guilt: "I'm sorry... Mr. Chen... I misunderstood... I hurt you..."
What did she misunderstand again?
Chen Kuang sighed in his heart and said reluctantly: "It's okay, it's none of your business."
Qingcuo took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and sprinkled the powder on Chen Kuang's bloody legs.
Chu Wenruo suddenly became excited and shrilly said:
"You thieves, you sons of bitches, come at me if you have anything to offer!"
She desperately reached out to grab the clothes behind Qingcuo:
"Don't attack innocent people anymore! Do you hear me? I'm the Lady of Liang State, you're interrogating me! Don't touch him!"
Qingcuo said calmly: "This is healing medicine."
Chu Wenruo was speechless for a moment, her movements froze, and there was a hint of awkwardness in the quiet air.
If Chen Kuang's face wasn't distorted with pain at this moment, he would definitely laugh out loud.
Qingcuo stood up and said, "This medicine can only heal superficial injuries. Your legs are already useless."
Chen Kuang was silent.
Qingcuo paused, looked at Chu Wenruo again, said nothing more, and turned and left.
The jailer locked the door again.
Chen Kuang moved his eyeballs and wanted to open them, but he found that his eyelids were covered with sweat and it was difficult to open them, so he just lay there.
He took a deep breath, smiled, and whispered comfortingly, "It's okay."
"For the next seven days... everything should be fine."
Chu Wenruo suppressed his emotions and asked in a hoarse voice:
"Seven days..."
"Mr. Chen...is this what you get for your two legs?"
Chen Kuang shook his head, reached out and touched his legs, feeling that his muscles and bones were indeed healing at a high speed, and raised the corners of his mouth:
