Lin Yang didn't know how long she had been unconscious, she would wake up and fall asleep repeatedly.
He developed a high fever due to a wound on his leg.
"Water..." Her mouth closed, her voice weak.
"Lin Yang, wake up." Someone was calling her, gently patting her face, trying to wake her up.
Lin Yang's last remaining sliver of consciousness could sense that the voice sounded familiar, but she simply didn't have the strength to think about who it was.
"Water...I'm so thirsty..." Her body was constantly losing moisture due to the high fever, as if it had been evaporated.
At this moment, Lin Yang could only intermittently beg for water, unable to utter any other words.
The sound of footsteps crunching through the leaves reached my ears, creak... creak...
She fainted again and knew nothing more.
"Lin Yang, water, drink water." Someone called anxiously in Lin Yang's ear.
The next second, a cool liquid rolled down her lips.
She tried to open her mouth to draw water, but she didn't even have the strength to do so.
She could only let the water slide down her tightly closed lips into her neck, wetting her clothes.
This happened several times, and by then the water in the man's hands was almost gone.
"Lin Yang..." Upon seeing this, the man's voice was tinged with anxiety as he called out to her.
Large beads of sweat rolled down Lin Yang's forehead. Her usually beautiful face was now deathly pale, devoid of any color.
Looking further down, Lin Yang's legs were torn open by thorns, with flesh exposed and bleeding.
She was wearing a black costume. Although the costume wasn't stained with bright red blood, the black color was deepened by the blood.
The dark color felt like a needle piercing his heart, and his fingers, holding the water, curled even tighter.
"Lin Yang, you idiot!" He gritted his teeth and couldn't help but scold the pitiful girl in front of him.
The next moment, he raised the hand holding the water source and brought his lips close.
"Water..." Lin Yang moved her lips, her drowsy mind regaining some consciousness.
That person's voice sounded so familiar, and the words they used to insult her... it sounded like...
It's Xu Chengzhi!
"Mmm!" Soft lips covered Lin Yang's, and then warm liquid was slowly sent into her mouth.
"Gulp gurgle..."
After being fed several mouthfuls, Lin Yang finally felt alive again.
She tried to lift her eyelids, but all she saw was darkness.
The light source was already obscured by the dense foliage, and now it was night, so how could anyone see the person in front of them?
"Xu Chengzhi, is that you?" Lin Yang closed her eyes again, exhausted, and asked the person in front of her in a barely audible voice.
The man gently lifted her head and placed it on his bent knees.
"It's me." Xu Chengzhi's voice was a little hoarse.
"Why are you here?" Lin Yang said a few words, but then lost her energy, and by the end, she could only speak through breath.
Xu Chengzhi pressed his lips close to hers, barely managing to hear her words, "If I hadn't come, wouldn't you have been left here to die in the wilderness?"
Look at you, still so sharp-tongued even at a time like this.
Lin Yang weakly tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Thank you, Xu Chengzhi. However, this body is too weak. If it were my old body, even ten mad horses couldn't hurt me."
With her skills, if it weren't for her back injury, she wouldn't have encountered such a predicament.
"Alright, alright, stop talking big. Save your energy, I'll take you out, okay?" Although Xu Chengzhi couldn't understand what Lin Yang was talking about, he couldn't help but soften his tone when he thought about her current state, as if he were coaxing a child.
"It's true, don't you believe me? In my previous world, I was very powerful..." Lin Yang's voice trailed off at the end.
