But this thing cannot directly solve Li Qingluo's dilemma.
She could only endure it.
"When will this end?"
Seeing the girl shaking all over in pain, Matron Zheng and Que'er could only worry.
After a while, Li Qingluo suddenly stopped responding.
Que'er hurried forward and reached out to feel her breath.
"girl?"
Nanny Zheng's face was filled with heartache: "She must have fainted from the pain."
The two of them carefully covered Li Qingluo with a cloak, and then they walked out of the cave tacitly, wiping the tears from the corners of their eyes.
"Mammy, are we just going to watch the girl and do nothing?"
Que'er really couldn't stand it.
Seeing the girl suffer from poisoning was several times more unbearable than the time he was tortured by Princess Qinyu.
Nanny Zheng: "What else can we do? The young lady has clearly made up her mind to get through this on her own."
"But looking at her symptoms...why does something seem amiss?"
"Besides, why is she afraid to let Dr. Luo Shen and the others examine her?"
Que'er also had some guesses in her mind.
"Butterfly...butterfly..."
But she didn't dare to say it at all.
Suddenly, Que'er looked up as if aware of something and saw an unusually bright fire in the dark night sky.
The firelight was the afterglow of the sky reflected on the ground.
Moreover, it seems to be constantly moving.
Que'er was shocked and looked at Nanny Zheng.
Nanny Zheng nodded and immediately set out to investigate.
Soon, she came back.
He said with a pale face: "Oh no, someone is coming."
"It seems there are quite a few people coming, carrying torches all the way, heading towards us."
"Could it be that he is here just for the girl?"
Que'er had a cold face and took off the long whip directly from her waist.
"The girl said that no matter who it is, no one can set foot here today."
"Mammy, let's go meet the enemy—"
Before Que'er and Nanny Zheng flew up, they heard Li Qingluo's voice coming from inside.
"Mammy, how many people are there?"
"Did you see clearly, is it a boy or a girl?"
"Who's the leader?"
Li Qingluo was already propping himself up and standing at the entrance of the cave.
Seeing that she could stand up, Que'er was overjoyed.
"Girl, are you feeling better?"
Li Qingluo panted and shook his head: "Go quickly."
"Mammy, go hold them back... Que'er, you leave with me."
Li Qingluo was afraid that those people would really break in here.
She was even more afraid that after smelling the man's blood, she would completely lose control and turn into a monster.
She would rather die in pain than drink human blood.
The three of them acted separately.
Nanny Zheng went to find out the news and lead people away.
Li Qingluo, supported by Que'er, quickly entered the woods.
"Girl, please slow down."
In the dark forest, there were vines, weeds and thorns everywhere underfoot.
Countless animals were awakened and fled from under their feet.
Li Qingluo could only lean most of his body on Que'er.
But as she walked, her steps became slower and slower.
Finally, her knees gave way and she fell to the ground.
"girl?"
Que'er turned around crying, "I'll carry you. Quickly——"
Que'er pulled Li Qingluo's arm and was about to carry her on his back, but her injuries had not fully recovered. Would Li Qingluo let her carry him again?
"No need... Help me get under the tree. I'll meditate and breathe. Quick..."
Li Qingluo followed the method taught by Nangong Di and tried hard to circulate her weak internal energy in an attempt to control the rage and pain in her body.
However, as soon as she took a breath, she spat out another mouthful of black blood.
She finally realized that she couldn't use her power at all.
However, at this moment, Li Qingluo and Que'er both heard a scream.
It’s Nanny Zheng’s voice!
Li Qingluo looked at Que'er.
"I've hurt you again..."
She closed her eyes in bitterness and despair.
Li Qingluo, the worst that can happen is death, why bother involving innocent lives?
Just as she was about to get up and head for the stream, she heard a familiar voice, carried from afar through the woods by her inner force.
"Li Qingluo, how dare you lie to me?"
"Do you think you can escape to the ends of the earth today?"
"Do you dare to come out and face this king and explain everything clearly?"
"You think that this king is reluctant to attack your people, right?"
"Don't forget, I am a brutal, bloodthirsty, and inhumane violent man."
"If you run away again, I'll cut off this old thing's legs and head."
"Did you understand?"
"Come out to this king!"
Que'er was so scared that she was shaking all over and almost crying.
"Miss, Madam Zheng, could it be that she is really..."
Li Qingluo endured the severe pain in his head that was shaking and seemed to be about to explode, and still walked towards the stream.
"He won't."
"Let's go."
Li Qingluo ignored Duan Rongshi's warning and just kept moving forward, listening to the sound of water.
Soon, she reached the stream.
Li Qingluo made a "hush" sound, asking Que'er not to speak, and then walked towards the stream resolutely.
