"Where's Duoduo?!" Yun Beiye's eyes seemed to bleed when he saw that Yun Duoduo was gone.
His heart clenched suddenly, as if it were being torn apart, and he couldn't breathe.
Someone kidnapped Duoduo.
...
Yun Duoduo felt her body swaying, her body burning with pain, seeing stars, and having a splitting headache.
The explosion just now was way too much.
Is this something a human being could do?
She felt the pain in her body, and this pain told her that she was not dead, that she was still alive.
"Well, I'm still alive; it's truly a blessing from heaven."
When she finally regained some of her senses and could see things clearly, she suddenly realized that she had been thrown into a carriage.
The carriage was very bumpy.
What's going on here?
Yun Duoduo braced herself against the wooden planks inside the carriage, trying to sit up.
"Ouch, that hurts."
She looked at the spot where the pain was coming from and saw that her hands were covered in blood.
[Damn it, don't let me find out who caused the explosion!]
This is the damage caused by a close-range explosion.
Oh, and the first-aid kit.
The first-aid kit should appear whenever she needs it.
Previously, because she saved Guan Ge Lao, a veteran of three dynasties, and later helped many sick palace maids and eunuchs, her medicine box was upgraded again.
Now, the first-aid kit will be there for her whenever she needs it.
However, she is not entirely sure whether the medicine box will have any bugs (loopholes, errors), and what kind of bugs (loopholes, errors) it might have, so she cannot have 100% control over it yet.
She endured the pain and nervously touched the bottom of the wooden board. Although there seemed to be nothing underneath, her fingers could still feel the smooth, cool texture of the wood.
The first-aid kit certainly didn't disappoint.
She opened the medicine box, inside which was a medical mirror that reflected her image.
This is……
Is it a demon that crawled out of its grave?
His tattered clothes were stained with blood, his body was covered in bruises that hurt at the slightest touch, his eyes were bloodshot, and blood was flowing from his mouth...
[Emma, to be alive after being injured like that, truly, as Grandmother said, has extraordinary talent...]
A shiver ran through her body. [Damn it, who on earth harmed this princess?!]
Her lips twitched slightly. [Don't let this princess find out, or I'll make you all taste this excruciating pain!]
Ouch, that really hurts! I can't even twitch the corner of my mouth.
She disinfected the wounds with alcohol and iodine, injected anesthetic into her face and legs with a syringe, then used a sterilized scalpel to remove the necrotic tissue, applied scar-reducing medication, and covered it with gauze to prevent infection.
Fortunately, after the local anesthesia, her hands and arms were still able to move normally.
She pressed her fingers against her body, moving them slowly. [Thankfully, no organs were damaged.]
Fortunately, the liver and spleen did not rupture, and there was no major bleeding.
[Well, this is already considered a relatively good case of blast damage.]
...
After tending to her wounds, she lifted the curtain and looked outside.
It was very dark outside; it was a completely unfamiliar forest.
What kind of godforsaken place is this?
Should we jump?
Yun Duoduo pondered and measured the height of the carriage.
Jumping down won't kill you, but it will definitely make a lot of noise.
This is an unfamiliar forest. If I jump down, I might get eaten by wild animals or bitten by snakes. Although I have a first-aid kit, it's unnecessary to suffer these things for no reason.
Why not stay in the carriage now and see who really wants to repay me?
After making her decision, Yun Duoduo pulled the hairpin off her head and threw it out of the carriage window.
[If my father sends someone to find me, and they see this hairpin, that's where I'll end up. As long as I keep throwing things down along the way, my father's men will eventually find me.]
Yun Duoduo touched the ornaments on her head and the bracelet on her wrist.
This bracelet was a gift from my brother Sumire; I can't throw it away.
She untied the ribbon from her dress, tied it into a knot, and planned to throw the knot off after the carriage had traveled a while longer.
As if hearing the noise, a masked man dressed entirely in black lifted the curtain and looked inside.
Yun Duoduo quickly pretended to be dead, closed her eyes, and lay upside down on the carriage floor.
"Well, has the princess woken up?" asked the person driving the carriage outside.
"No, I'm fast asleep."
How much longer until we arrive?
"Almost there, almost there. It's dark and the road is difficult to walk on."
"Everyone says the princess is clever and tells us to be careful, but I think she's just a six-year-old child. How clever could she be?"
"He's just a little brat."
"There's a village ahead. We'll rest there when we get there."
There's a village ahead. Once I get there, I'll figure out how to escape.
After a while, there was no more movement outside. Yun Duoduo narrowed her eyes slightly and saw that the people inside the carriage had already left. She took out the knotted ribbon from under her and threw it out the window.
I hope that the people my father sent can find me through these jewels and objects found along the way.
The carriage continued its swaying and rocking journey forward.
Upon arriving at the village, the guards carried Yun Duoduo off the carriage and placed her on a haystack in the kitchen.
[Emma, you little brat, don't you know anything about respecting the elderly and caring for the young?!]
Although the haystack was very tall, when Yun Duoduo was thrown on it, the moment her back hit the ground, the pain almost made her cry out.
"Hey, I say, with such serious injuries, shouldn't you find a doctor?" the masked man in black asked.
"Why bother finding a doctor? We can't alert her. I think she's still hanging on by a thread; she won't die."
"Let's rest for the night; we still have a long journey ahead tomorrow!"
After they finished speaking, the two left the kitchen, and Yun Duoduo heard the sound of the lock being put on.
Yun Duoduo slowly opened her eyes. The kitchen was pitch black. She looked around by the moonlight streaming in through the window.
The kitchen was small, only about ten square meters. The haystacks faced the door, and there were several buckets near the entrance.
Yun Duoduo endured the pain and stood up. She gently moved a wooden bucket to the window. By stepping on the bucket, she could climb out of the window and leave this place.
"If we kidnap the princess and the emperor's men find out, we'll be beheaded!"
"You've already done it, there's no turning back."
"Moreover, the higher-ups said that as long as we complete this order, they will send us to Beiliang, where even the Emperor himself won't be able to find us!"
"Okay, fine, we'll do it your way."
"You think the princess is dead? She's covered in blood. The higher-ups said she has to be alive."
"Don't worry, I just checked, and I'm still breathing!"
"Go to sleep, we have a long journey ahead tomorrow!"
