Sorob was hanging on the treetop, his face flushed red from holding his breath.

Rong Zhen's internal injuries had not yet fully recovered. He and Gu Yunru came to a charity cemetery to rest. The cemetery here was where some bodies transported along the way were parked. There were rows of coffins, and the yin energy was very heavy.

"Rong Zhen, are you okay?" Gu Yunru saw that his breathing was very disordered. He must have suffered a severe blow to his internal strength, and his face did not look good.

"I'm fine, how about you?" Rong Zhen was able to see her face clearly in the moonlight. Her face had long since recovered, her skin was crystal clear, and she was wearing a bright red wedding dress. The hair crown on her head had been upside down due to traveling all the way, and her hair was hanging down, making her look even more charming.

Seeing his greedy eyes, Gu Yunru turned her head away unhappily, "You stay here well, I'll go to the nearby mountains to see if there are any herbs for healing injuries. You're still bleeding now, I don't want you to die here."

After Gu Yunru finished speaking, she ran out in a hurry. Rong Zhen was worried that she might encounter something alone, but before he could finish his words, the girl disappeared.

Gu Yunru was panting as she searched around the top of the mountain. Her nose was very sensitive and she could smell the scent of Chinese herbs.

She picked some hemostatic herbs and went back. Looking at Rong Zhen's worried face, she squatted down, chewed the herbs into pieces, covered his wound with them, and tore a piece of cloth from her dress to bandage him.

"Is everything you said in the cave true?"

Rong Zhen asked this question suddenly in a hoarse voice, which caught her off guard. She blinked her starry eyes and asked innocently, "What did you say?"

"You said you didn't want to marry me at all."

Although Rong Zhen was in a semi-conscious state, he heard these words very clearly.

Gu Yunru bandaged him and sat aside with a tired look on her face.

"Those were all lies I told you..." Gu Yunru was cornered and blurted out all the truth and lies at once.

"Really?"

Rong Zhen remembered Gu Yunru's determined eyes, and when she said she didn't want to marry him, her expression seemed very excited.

"Of course, this is called making a feint to the east and attacking in the west. Don't worry about it too much, just take a good rest first, they shouldn't be able to find this place."

Gu Yunru leaned against the wall and closed her eyes to rest. Rong Zhen saw that she was actually sleeping. It was dark and gloomy here, and he always felt that something was wrong.

The next morning, when Gu Yunru woke up, she found that she had fallen asleep leaning on his shoulder. She secretly raised her eyes to look at him. The first ray of sunlight shone on his face, and his cold, sculptured facial features looked even more profound and three-dimensional.

I didn't want to disturb him, so I stood up quietly.

Gu Yunru looked at the bright red wedding dress and couldn't help but frowning. If she wasn't naturally beautiful, she wouldn't be able to wear such a rustic style! Gu Yunru came to a nearby hilltop to see if there were any wild fruits or something. When she heard some noise ahead, she found that it was the same gang of bandits from yesterday. She quickly squatted down and hid in the bushes.

"This is so abominable. This Rong Zhen, when I find him later, I will cut him into pieces and make him die miserably!"

"That's right. It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Your Majesty, please don't get so angry about such a small matter that it makes you sick."

Gu Yunru pinched her nose and held her breath, and only stuck her head out after the group of people had passed.

No, we have to take Rong Zhen away from this place quickly. If we are discovered by these people, they might cause some trouble.

Gu Yunru returned to the charity cemetery and found that he was still asleep. The scattered sunlight sprinkled on his face. She reached out and touched his forehead and found it was burning hot. Could it be that he caught a cold last night?

Gu Yunru wanted to find someone to help, but found that she had to walk two more mountain roads to see anyone, so she carried him on her back in one go. She never expected that Rong Zhen was so heavy, like the weight of two bags of rice.

"You are so heavy, kid."

Gu Yunru carried him for two miles and was completely unable to walk. Rong Zhen's cheeks were red and his forehead was hot, and it seemed that he had caught a severe cold.

"A Zhao. No way, you were sick at the critical moment!" Gu Yunru wanted to cry but had no tears. She cried to the sky and the earth, but no one answered. She didn't know what Qingfeng was doing at the critical moment.

"Forget it, let's take a rest..." Gu Yunru was already exhausted. She hadn't eaten much in the first place and had been tossing and turning all night. Now she was so hungry that her chest was sticking to her back, her eyes were black, and she was about to faint.

He laid Rong Zhen flat on the ground and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

"A Zhao, please don't be in any trouble. If you die here, I will never be at peace." Gu Yunru felt a little guilty and her eyes became wet again without her realizing it.

Rong Zhen came here at the risk of his life to save her. If something really went wrong, she would definitely not forgive herself.

Gu Yunru rested for a long time, and then saw a bullock cart passing by. He quickly ran up to the old man and waved, "Grandpa, can you give us a ride? We want to go down the mountain."

The old man saw Rong Zhen fainted on the side and asked in surprise, "Is he dead?"

"No, no, he just fainted from exhaustion. He's not dead. There's still a heartbeat. Listen if you don't believe me."

The old man looked at Gu Yunru doubtfully and reluctantly let the two of them get on the ox cart. Gu Yunru helped him up by himself, but found that his breathing and heartbeat suddenly stopped.

"A Zhao! A Zhao!" Gu Yunru patted his face with a look of horror. The old man waited for a long time but did not see the two of them. When he heard the terrified sound from the girl's mouth, he thought the person was really dead, so he drove the ox cart down the mountain.

"No way, I told you not to die here, and you really died." Gu Yunru was so anxious that tears fell from her eyes. She pinched his philtrum hard, but it was of no use.

"A Zhao, no, how do you want me to go back alone?" Gu Yunru's tears welled up in her eyes and she shook his arm fiercely.

Suddenly, seeing the corners of his mouth slightly raised, Gu Yunru immediately realized that this guy was faking his death.

Gu Yunru was furious, but she couldn't just let him fool her. She said in a tearful voice, "You died tragically. If that's the case, I'll throw your body into the river. It'll be a good deed for you."

Hearing that he was going to be thrown into the river, Rong Zhen quickly sat up with a somersault.

At this moment, a green figure appeared in front of the two. It was Qingfeng. He was holding a shining silver sword in his hand. It seemed that he had been following the two for a long time.
