Chapter 32 [VIP] Jianghu (13)

"Your sweetheart ran away with another man. As a man, don't you feel angry or sad at all? Why don't you try to get her back?"

Nan Yan pushed his shoulder hard, ready to throw it away after using it, without any hesitation.

Maybe I had vented enough, and the sadness in my heart gradually subsided and I was not as impulsive as at the beginning.

But the words he said were still so infuriating that they could kill him.

Xiao Guanxue gave her a cold look and said, "I'm different from you. As long as she's happy, it doesn't matter if she's not by my side."

Nan Yan glanced at him, as if she had guessed that he would say such a thing, but she still said sarcastically, "Oh, the miracle doctor is really extraordinary, and he is really generous."

Xiao Guanxue frowned, but didn't care. He was already used to her ridicule.

In fact, he was a little confused in his heart. He thought he would be very sad, but when he saw that scene, he did not feel too much despair in his heart.

Instead, I felt a sense of fate that "this is how it has to be". Perhaps I had anticipated that this day would come, so I wasn't as sad as I had imagined.

Moreover, his mind was mostly on this woman who was crying so hard that she didn't know what the world was. How could he have the time and energy to think about other things? He just wondered why this woman was howling so loudly? Didn't her throat hurt? Wasn't she afraid of attracting wolves?

Speaking of attracting wolves, he remembered the purpose of their trip. If they dragged on any longer, the group of poisoned villagers would not be able to hold on.

So he considered how to start the conversation, and glanced at Gu Nanyan who was still crying and feeling sad, and thought why not just knock her out and send her back, so that he could save a lot of trouble by looking for the antidote by himself?

As he thought about this, Nan Yan finally came to her senses.

She reached out to wipe her tears, her eyes were still slightly red. Xiao Guanxue beside her saw this and handed her a white handkerchief at the right time. However, Nan Yan just glanced at him, ignored him, and pushed him away and left.

What's the point of handing it over to this unromantic bastard when she has already finished crying?

Xiao Guanxue didn't care, but just frowned slightly. He didn't know how he had offended her again. She was indeed a woman with changeable emotions, which was very troublesome.

Nan Yan walked forward for a distance before she realized that the person behind her had not caught up with her. She couldn't help but look annoyed again. She turned around and said angrily, "What are you still doing there? Do you want to wait until the sun goes down to spend the night in the forest? If you don't find the antidote, those people will all die."

Xiao Guanxue came back to his senses after hearing this. Thinking about how he had just fallen into some strange emotional ups and downs because of her look, he suddenly felt a little annoyed and felt it was very strange.

When did he care so much about this woman's movements? Could it be that he was so used to being bullied by her that he couldn't slow down?

It's extremely strange.

Xiao Guanxue didn't say anything for a long time. Looking at the other party's disgusted expression, he was helpless and could only follow the slender figure silently.

Nan Yan naturally noticed the abnormality of this Doctor Xiao. He had been acting strangely since he entered the mountain. Sometimes he looked at her with disdain, sometimes with sympathy, as if she couldn't see it.

The two of them walked forward, and perhaps because they were in a bad mood, they didn't communicate much along the way.

But they soon realized something was wrong because they were unfamiliar with the place and seemed to be lost.

Seeing that it was getting late, the two of them thought of finding a cave to rest for the night and then looking for a way out tomorrow.

Unfortunately, as if things didn't get worse, just as the two of them were circling around and returning to their original place, a burst of wolf howls suddenly came from nearby.

A gray figure quickly passed by in the depths of the jungle, stirring up a bloody wind. This wild wolf that was out foraging must have smelled the scent of a living person and was rapidly approaching the two people.

Xiao Guanxue held his breath and paid close attention to the movements around him.

Nan Yan, out of fear, subconsciously moved closer to him and grabbed his fingers.

Xiao Guanxue was startled by the slender and soft touch against the palm of his hand. He glanced down at her and happened to see the eldest lady's pale face.

However, he still felt that this act of taking advantage of him was a little inappropriate, but Xiao Guanxue did not say anything. Instead, he took a step back, trying to take the opportunity to pull his hand out.

This pull not only did not move, but made the other party hold it tighter. Xiao Guanxue felt a little helpless and said simply:

“…Let go.”

"No, I'm scared."

Nan Yan held on tightly, as if afraid that he would abandon her, and held on tightly to him, refusing to let go.

His finger bones were long and slender, and because he had been practicing acupuncture for many years, his palms were very finely maintained. In Nan Yan's hands, they did not feel rough at all.

This also indirectly proves that Doctor Xiao's martial arts skills are only average. Who knows if he will abandon her for his own safety? Of course, she will hold on to him tightly.

Xiao Guanxue's fingertips were itchy from her touch, but he couldn't shake it off. He felt an inexplicable sense of shame in his heart, and his ears felt hot. "Okay, stop touching me."

Nan Yan immediately stopped moving after hearing this, "I didn't touch it, I just felt a little strange, why don't you have a coil on your hand, it's different from Brother Yu's."

Xiao Guanxue was simply speechless. This person was touching his hand, yet he could still think of Xie Yu?

I couldn't help but feel a strange feeling of annoyance in my heart.

He glanced at her. This young lady was the best in the world who could justify taking advantage of others so confidently and without any guilt.

But now is not the time to think about these things. Xiao Guanxue suppressed his emotions, and the two of them quickly hurried in another direction.

But unfortunately, not long after walking, he saw another gray wolf lurking in front of him.

These two wild wolves were the ones that had besieged Su Mo and escaped last time. They were much more ferocious than ordinary gray wolves. They were tall and mighty, and they had not been seen for several days, so the blood in their eyes was even more intense.

The leading gray wolf swooped over the two of them, and the bloody wind blew in their faces. Xiao Guanxue's movement of pulling Nan Yan suddenly stopped.

Nan Yan was unable to stop herself and her chin accidentally hit his shoulder. Before she could even cry out in pain, she heard the man anxiously say, "It's too late. Can you climb a tree?"

"Climb a tree?"

Nan Yan was stunned for a moment. She had climbed trees when she was a child, but the trees nearby were too thick and strong, and she couldn't climb up at all.

"It seems... not working. It's too high. I can't climb up."

After Nan Yan finished speaking, she deliberately showed an anxious look. How could she climb the bare tree trunk? She was not a monkey.

Seeing the two gray wolves getting closer and closer, Xiao Guanxue frowned. He took out a few silver needles from his sleeves with his fingers and shot them directly at the alpha wolf, but the effect was not great. This move did not scare away the wild wolves, but instead Let the two wild wolves become more and more frantic.

Originally, he had planned to let her climb up first, and then he would drug a wild wolf to do some research, but it was a problem because this person couldn't climb trees.

The leading gray wolf seemed to realize that he was not easy to deal with, so he turned his gaze towards Nan Yan.

The two wolves cooperated with each other, and while Xiao Guanxue was taking the needle, they suddenly pounced towards Nan Yan behind.

It was also at this time that Xiao Guanxue instinctively hugged the person into his arms, and then used his body to block the person, while the sharp wolf claws also hit his back fiercely.

He only let out a muffled groan as the wolf's claws slammed him hard on the back. His skin was immediately torn and bleeding. He was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Brother Xiao!"

Nan Yan called him, and then she felt her waist tighten. The sudden feeling of weightlessness made her close her eyes subconsciously.

When they opened their eyes again, they were already clinging to the branches of two sturdy locust trees, and under the tree was a hungry wolf circling back and forth, refusing to leave.

Nan Yan still remembered the critical scene in her mind. She quickly reached out to help Xiao Guanxue. Seeing that his face was getting paler, she trembled in her voice, "Brother Xiao, how are you? Does your back hurt?"

"Let me take a look at the wound..."

Before she finished her words, Xiao Guanxue suddenly reached out and stopped her, "Don't move."

Nan Yan didn't know what happened yet, but after hearing his serious tone, she immediately stopped moving. However, she still glanced at him and said, "What's wrong? Is there any problem..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a gust of wind passing by his ears.

It turned out that there was a thumb-thick black snake coiled on the branch beside me. The snake was completely black and almost merged with the branch. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see it clearly.

At this moment, two people invaded its territory. The black snake was domineering and suddenly stood up, just about to bite Nan Yan who was closest to it. Fortunately, Xiao Guanxue stretched out his hand to block it, thus avoiding the risk of Nan Yan being bitten by the snake.

But he was not so lucky. A black snake bit the back of his hand. Xiao Guanxue felt pain and then pinched the snake's vital point and threw it away with force.

This happened so suddenly that before Nan Yan could react, the snake was thrown away by him.

When Nan Yan came to her senses, she finally understood what had happened. She glanced at the back of his hand and her eyes immediately turned red with anxiety. "Brother Xiao, your hand... was bitten by a snake."

There were two deep snake tooth marks on the back of the clean white hand. The area around the wound was red and slightly swollen, and the blood that flowed out was faintly black, obviously poisonous.

Xiao Guanxue also felt that his vision was a little dark, but he still managed to say, "Nothing..."

"How can it be okay? The wound has turned black."

Nan Yan's voice was filled with tears, and she looked worried as she held his hand, feeling so anxious that she didn't know what to do.

Suddenly, her eyes fixed, as if she had thought of something. She was about to lower her head to help him suck out the poison, but someone held her head against his.

"Don't mess around. This method won't work."

Nan Yan was so anxious that tears came out. She held the back of his hand tightly with both hands and looked at him with grievance and pity, "What should I do? Brother Xiao, you have been poisoned and suffered such serious injuries. I don't want you to die..."

If you die, the mission will not be completed.

Xiao Guanxue glanced at her unconsciously when he heard this. Normally, this person would make him angry and annoyed and wish he would die sooner, but now that she was so worried about him, he felt a subtle emotion in his heart and could only comfort her subconsciously.

"Don't worry, I'm a doctor..."

After saying that, he took out a few silver needles from his sleeve and inserted them near the wound. A few drops of blood on the back of his hand flowed out through the fingertips. Perhaps the injury was too severe. Xiao Guanxue felt a little groggy after the acupuncture and gradually passed out due to exhaustion.

Nan Yan cried and called him a few times with all her heart. After making sure that the other person was motionless, she pushed him away casually, as long as he was not dead.

She took a look at the current situation of the two people. They were about ten feet above the ground. Two wild wolves were circling back and forth under the tree and were reluctant to leave. The two were temporarily trapped.

Nan Yan glanced at Xiao Guanxue's wound again. The claw had grabbed his back. The claw mark was quite deep, and the flesh and blood were turned inside out, which looked very scary.

Thinking that the man could not die yet, she took out some medicine from her bag and bandaged him casually. Only then did she feel a little relieved.

The two of them snuggled up to the tree and rested all night. It was not until the early morning of the next day that Xiao Guanxue regained some consciousness from his coma.

However, his consciousness was still a little fuzzy. In his coma, he could only hear a noisy and familiar voice that kept bothering him in his ear, with a faint tone of crying.

No matter how he tried to avoid it, the voice still persisted, drilling into his mind and making him extremely annoyed.

"Brother Xiao, why aren't you awake yet?"

"Are you going to die? I will listen to you from now on and never make you angry again. Please don't die, okay?"

"Brother Xiao, wake up quickly..."

I don't know if this person was cursing him on purpose or what, but every word she said was about death. I'm afraid that even a living person would be pissed off to death by her.

Seeing this person crying non-stop, Xiao Guanxue felt a headache and reached out to rub his aching brows. However, as soon as he moved a little, he felt a tearing and pulling pain in his back.

Nan Yan noticed his movement and immediately reached out to help him up, "You're awake, Brother Xiao."

Suddenly, a woman's surprised voice came to my ears.

Xiao Guanxue frowned and slightly opened his eyes.

What caught my eye were the woman's slightly red eyes from crying. The light was now shining on her shoulders. She was facing the light, her hair was a little loose, with a few strands of hair falling on both sides of her cheeks. She seemed to be coated in a halo by the sunlight.

The color of her pupils was extremely pale, her raven-blue eyelashes were trembling slightly, her cheeks were filled with tears, and her pale face was full of worry.

Xiao Guanxue was stunned for a moment, and after coming to his senses, he felt a little uncomfortable. He didn't know if it was because of the dazzling light or because of her blooming face. He just felt that the more he looked at her, the faster his heartbeat became.

He coughed lightly, and his dry throat made it difficult for him to speak. Xiao Guanxue could only hum softly, and then said in a hoarse voice, "...water..."

Perhaps his voice was too low, Nan Yan didn't hear what he said clearly, so she asked again, "Brother Xiao, what did you say? I didn't hear clearly."

"Well...I said..."

"Tell me, tell me, what do you want?"

"……water……"

Nan Yan looked at him nervously, afraid that he would fall asleep again. "Who? Who are you talking about? Brother Xiao, can you speak more clearly? I don't understand."

“…”

Alas, he was just thirsty and wanted to drink some water, why was it so difficult?

This spoiled daughter of a wealthy family must have never taken care of anyone in her life. When he asked her to get some water, she hesitated for a long time and didn't even hear what he said.

Xiao Guanxue coughed and finished her words in one breath, "I said, I need to drink some water, please... Ahem, Miss, please hand me the water bag in your bag. Is that clear enough?"

But after he finished speaking, his throat hurt even more and Xiao Guanxue started coughing uncontrollably. He covered his chest and the look in his eyes when he looked at her showed a bit more disgust.

Nan Yan understood immediately after hearing this. She hurriedly took out the water bag from her bag and handed it to him. Somehow, the water bag just touched his fingertips.

Nan Yan loosened her grip and the water bag fell to the ground with a "pop" sound, hitting the gray wolf's tail. The two wolves circled the locust tree several times, sharpening their claws impatiently at the thing that fell from the sky.

The two looked at each other and were speechless.

Xiao Guanxue: “…”

If the young lady's face had not looked so pale, aggrieved and helpless, he would have suspected that this person was deliberately going against him.

"you……"

Before he could finish his words of blame, the eldest daughter started crying out of guilt.

She stared at the fallen water bag. The more she looked, the more wronged and sad she felt. The tears that had been accumulating in her eyes instantly fell from her eyes.

"What can I do? I haven't even drunk it myself."

Xiao Guanxue: “…”

Shouldn't I apologize to him first?

Xiao Guanxue's face turned pale because of being blocked. He looked coldly at the crying eldest lady. The moment he looked at her, he found that he seemed to be no longer angry.

Perhaps it was the sight of the ugly bandage on the back of his hand, or the anxious look in the red eyes when they looked at him...

The things that I originally disliked about this young lady now seem a little more pleasing to me.

Well, this woman was born to be his nemesis.
