Chapter 361 Burns
The wind and snow stopped.
The fire in Chang'an City also became smaller.
Murong Wan was protected by Murong Qi's men and finally escaped.
Everyone who escaped from the fire was in a mess.
Murong Wan looked not only embarrassed but also horrible.
The skin on her right arm and shoulder was burned.
Just after she shot Helian Bori, a fire suddenly spread around her and the gunpowder hidden at her feet exploded.
In just a moment, flames shot up into the sky from under her feet.
She was unable to dodge and was caught by the mad flames.
She felt numbness first, then severe pain.
The people around her put out the fire on her body, but the burned part was already covered in blood and pus.
The road to the north was completely blocked by the sea of fire, so they had to take a detour to escape.
Murong Wan almost fainted from the pain.
Before fainting, they passed by He Mansion.
Just then, I saw the servants of the He Mansion hurriedly fleeing with their bags.
The whole city is about to be destroyed, who among them wouldn’t run away?
Chunyue was among them, fleeing in a hurry with a small bag on her back.
Before Murong Wan fainted, she raised her hand and pointed:
"Take her with you."
When the people protecting her rushed over, one of them grabbed Chunyue.
Chunyue was suddenly kidnapped and screamed in fear. She kicked her hands and feet and hit the back of her hand against the stone lion, scraping off a large piece of skin.
She was lifted onto the horse's back and rushed towards the south city gate.
When they finally escaped from the fire and arrived at the South City Gate, they saw Yin Li who had come down to inspect the situation.
They didn't know what had happened before, they just identified themselves as Murong Qi's men.
As a result, Yin Li sent people to arrest them without saying a word.
Yin Li didn't listen to their explanation: "Take him away and we'll talk later."
As for Murong Wan, who fainted due to burns, and Chunyue, whose hands were bleeding, they were sent directly to the injured area.
Many injured soldiers could not hold on for long and needed emergency treatment.
It was freezing cold outside and it was not suitable for treatment outside, so the wounded were treated in the city gate tower on the south city wall. This place was sheltered and had a larger space than the corner tower, making it suitable for temporary accommodation of the wounded.
Doctor Yu was the busiest at this time.
He led several military doctors, who were busy checking the injuries of the wounded and giving them medicine in time. There were also some uninjured soldiers helping them.
"The poison arrow must be removed quickly. Bring strong liquor and cotton cloth!"
"Is the Ma Fei San ready?"
"Bring the moxa!"
"Next……"
The wounded were helped or carried in one by one.
The military doctors skillfully cleaned the wounds, applied medicine, and bandaged them... fighting against the devil to save the lives of the victims.
Su Zhizhi, Ning An, Yuan Caiwei and others also helped.
Although they could not prescribe medicine, they were still very efficient in moving the wounded and delivering medicine and cotton cloth.
Murong Wan was carried in and placed on the ground. Chunyue followed behind tremblingly.
Both of them were disheveled and their original appearance could not be seen. Murong Wan's right half of the body was burned horribly, and no one could recognize her at a glance.
Su Zhizhi saw them come in and said to Chunyue who lowered her head:
"Don't be afraid. We not only treat the wounded, but also the civilians. Please wait in line. The doctor will be here soon."
After Su Zhizhi finished speaking, she hurried to help Doctor Yu get the medicine for his wounds.
Chunyue sat beside the unconscious Murong Wan, watching strangers coming and going around her. She didn't know where to escape, so she could only hold the bleeding back of her hand and wait.
She was not so scared at this time because she recognized Su Zhizhi and Ning An.
She had been with Murong Wan for so long and had had several opportunities to meet Princess Ning'an, so she was able to recognize her.
As for Su Zhizhi, she had met her when she accompanied Murong Wan to a banquet at the Duke of Ming's Mansion. At that time, a lot of trouble had arisen because of a painting by the prince, and Su Zhizhi even stood up and wrote the words "like adding wings to a tiger". Chunyue was deeply impressed by Su Zhizhi.
Chunyue was surprised that they were here.
But since they were here, Chunyue felt that this place was at least safer than outside.
After a while, a doctor really came to see them.
The military doctor bandaged the back of Chunyue's hand, then frowned and looked at Murong Wan:
"This girl suffered a lot of burns, but fortunately, the fire didn't penetrate her flesh or reach her internal organs. She's truly fortunate. While her life isn't in danger, I'm afraid the new flesh won't be able to return to its original state when it grows back, so she'll likely leave some scars."
Murong Wan, who had fainted, could not hear anything, and only Chunyue was listening beside her.
Chunyue's expression was calm, and she didn't show any worry.
The military doctor saw how Chunyue and Murong Wan were dressed and guessed that they were master and servant.
"There are many people here, all men, so it would be inconvenient for them to undress and apply medicine. Take your daughter to the room on the west side upstairs. There is a female doctor there who can detoxify."
Surrounded by wounded soldiers, Chunyue didn't want to stay here for long and didn't know what to do. So, following the doctor's instructions, she dragged Murong Wan upstairs.
She didn't dare run, for fear that Murong Wan would catch her after waking up, and her fate would be even worse.
Upstairs, Hua Erniang was stirring a bowl of medicine and feeding it to a poisoned soldier:
"Come, come, fight poison with poison, and all poisons will be eliminated."
