Legend of the Heroes of the Southern Kingdom

Chapter 393

After entering the stone cave, Li Wenxuan groped forward and took two steps forward. At first, he didn't feel anything, but then he felt a stench in it, like some animal's rotting carcasses or feces. Li Wenxuan was originally afraid of caves. There were beasts in the cave, but after listening carefully, the cave was very quiet, so I didn't care about it. Fortunately, the smell in the cave was not too strong, otherwise I was afraid that it would be unbearable, so I walked a few more steps , and arrived at the innermost part of the cave. It turned out that the cave was not deep, only less than two zhang. But thinking about it, even if there are seven or eight people here, it should be able to accommodate it.

Li Wenxuan put the pearl on the ground, the inside of the cave was pitch black, Li Wenxuan couldn't see the pearl, but when he thought of Mingzhu's cold, murderous eyes, he felt a lot more settled in his heart, just waiting for those Yanyun eighteen The people who are far away, and then make plans.

"Pearl...Pearl..."

At first, it was quiet outside, but then I heard someone calling Mingzhu's name. Li Wenxuan knew that those people had walked in, so he remained motionless, afraid of making some noise and drawing them over. Fortunately, I tapped Mingzhu's acupoints early, otherwise it would be terrible if she shouted, secretly thinking, although she couldn't see Mingzhu's appearance, she must be very anxious when she heard her companion's shout.

Suddenly I heard a person say: "Come on, look, there is blood here!" This is the voice of chasing stars.

Li Wenxuan originally thought that they were looking for them all the way along the river bank. Now that he is hiding in the cave, they will definitely not come looking for it. Everything should be safe, but when he heard Chase Xing's shout, his heart immediately trembled: "Why? What? How could there be bloodstains... Broken, it is really bad, it must be the blood from the knife wound on my shoulder, left on the big bluestone! Sigh, I was too careless, if there is Yingying, it must be Don’t call me so careless, I don’t know if they will come here.”

Then I heard Zhuiyue say: "Yes, that's right. I think the blood has not solidified yet. It is obvious that it was left just now. It seems that the injured person has not gone far."

He also heard Fei Yun say: "It's hard to say whether this bloodstain is Mingzhu's or that Li Wenxuan's, but no matter who it is, we should find someone. The two of them fell together, and they were washed here by the river, and then went ashore. maybe."

Chasing the moon said: "That's right, let's call around and look around, and don't miss any place. If we find that Li Wenxuan first, don't take his life and leave him alive so that we can find out the whereabouts of the pearl!"

Hearing that Feiyun and Chaixing nodded in agreement at the same time, and then searched separately, Li Wenxuan secretly groaned, thinking: "There should be only three people who listen to their voices, but in my current situation, let alone the three of them, Even a random one, I can't resist now."

Li Wenxuan heard the footsteps outside getting closer and closer to the cave where he was hiding, and he was also very nervous, thinking hard about how to escape, but in this cave, there is a strong enemy ahead, and there is no way out, Li Wenxuan thought about it Going can only be resigned to fate.Suddenly remembering that Mingzhu was still by his side and unable to move, Li Wenxuan leaned over and whispered, "I'm sorry, if they find this place, I will have to take you as a hostage in order to escape!"

Li Wenxuan held Mingzhu's sword in one hand, sat beside her, and was careful, as long as someone found the hole, he would immediately grab Mingzhu in front of him as a shield.

The entrance of this cave is quite shaded, Li Wenxuan listened to the footsteps of Zhuiyue and the other three and walked back and forth several times in the surrounding area. At the closest time, the entrance of this cave was less than ten feet away, which was really thrilling. , but no one can see where the cave is.

Li Wenxuan secretly exclaimed: "It's so dangerous, so dangerous!" At the same time, he also lamented how lucky he was. If he hadn't stumbled into this cave by mistake, if he had escaped into the forest before, he would have been chased by now. Yue and others found out.

Suddenly I heard Zhuiyue say: "Have you seen it over there?"

Chase Xing said: "No, it's right under our noses, it can't be hidden."

Chasing Moon said: "Otherwise, it's better for me to go and have a look, don't be sloppy at all."

Li Wenxuan didn't know where Zhuiyue was talking about at first, but after Zhuiyue's voice fell, he heard Zhuiyue's footsteps coming towards him, and he was still coming towards the entrance of the cave.

Hearing the footsteps of Chasing the Moon getting closer, Li Wenxuan had vaguely seen Chasing the Moon's legs through the weeds and bushes at the entrance of the cave, and shouted in his heart: "Heaven is dead to me", and even caught the pearl in his hands. Always be on guard.

"who!"

Hearing a shout from outside, Li Wenxuan thought that Zhuiyue saw him, and almost yelled in the cave, but Zhuiyue's footsteps turned sharply, left the cave entrance, chased in the opposite direction, and followed. Feiyun and Chaixing shouted again and again, and then there was a sound of clashing weapons, obviously the three of them were fighting with someone.

Li Wenxuan thought to himself: "Who did they see? Could it be that... Yingying came to find me? No... If Yingying, let alone the three of them, I'm afraid I can't take the five moves of only chasing Yue. Stop, now listening to the movement, I am afraid that more than ten strokes have passed, who is that person outside?"

Li Wenxuan wanted to go to the entrance of the cave to take a sneak peek, but he heard the sound of weapons colliding back and forth more than ten times outside, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps, and there was no other movement.

"What's the situation outside? Who wins and who loses?" Li Wenxuan wanted to know what was going on outside, but he didn't dare to come out and look around. He only waited at the entrance of the cave for half an hour to make sure that there was no sound outside, and then he poked out. Half of the body, but looking around, the weeds not far in front of him were trampled in a mess, and there was no other clue.

In any case, Li Wenxuan was relieved that he was not discovered by Zhuiyue and others. Just as he was about to turn around and go back to the cave, he saw many wolfberry trees growing not far in front of him, with clusters of bright red wolfberries on them. The heavy rain has just passed, and there are still many raindrops hanging on the wolfberry, which looks very delicate in contrast, which makes people move their index fingers.Li Wenxuan was already hungry. He felt dizzy all the time, half because of the wind and cold, and generally because of hunger. So he was overjoyed, picked up the branches with more fruit, and cut six or seven branches. branches, picked up some dry wood branches, and returned to the cave.

Li Wenxuan touched the flint flint in his arms, and it had already dried with him, so he grabbed a handful of hay and put it together with the flint, and used Mingzhu's butterfly knife to hit some sparks on the flint on the flint. A small fire was lit.

With the fire in the cave, Li Wenxuan's mood became much more at ease. He immediately took the branch of the wolfberry tree, peeled off the fruit and ate it. The wolfberries tasted sweet and tasted really good.

Li Wenxuan cast a glance at Mingzhu lying next to her, although she was unable to move because of his acupuncture points, but seeing that her face was pale and she didn't even fight for her eyes, Li Wenxuan was afraid that she would die, so he called out: "You...what's wrong with you? Isn't it dead?"

Mingzhu didn't move and didn't respond, Li Wenxuan felt bad, so he moved to her and sighed, but before his fingers touched Mingzhu's veil, Mingzhu suddenly opened his eyes and glared at Li Wenxuan, which made Li Wenxuan jump , knowing that she couldn't move, but also hastily withdrew her hand subconsciously.

Mingzhu saw that Li Wenxuan withdrew his hand, and then closed his eyes again. Li Wenxuan paused, and said in a conferring tone: "I don't want to take your life. If you didn't insist on coming up and cutting me, I wouldn't." As for dragging you into the water, I will unlock your acupoints now, so don't move around, okay?"

Mingzhu didn't speak, Li Wenxuan said again: "I was injured, I think you will not be much better than me, I'm afraid you will have to stay in this cave for a few days, your weapons and hidden weapons are with me, I will I advise you not to make random decisions."

After saying a few words on his face, Li Wenxuan was all shut up, but he finally opened Mingzhu's acupuncture points, and said: "This is the wolfberry I picked outside. You can eat some first, it can satisfy your hunger to a certain extent." Then he took two large wolfberry branches and put them in Mingzhu's hand. It was strange to say that Mingzhu didn't move when Li Wenxuan touched her acupuncture points. Lying there motionless, Li Wenxuan talked to her and brought food to her, completely indifferent. Seeing this, Li Wenxuan thought she must be annoyed that he dragged her into the water, so he didn't bother to provoke her anymore, and found someone to step aside place to lie down and rest.

Li Wenxuan looked at the swollen appearance on his ankle, thinking how it would take about ten days to heal, and his ribs were broken, so it would take a longer time to recover. As for the shoulder that was cut by Mingzhu But it's not very important. The more Li Wenxuan thought about it, the more worried he became, and Mingzhu was also here. Although he didn't know how Mingzhu was hurt, it seemed that it shouldn't be worse than him. If he ran into Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry, he would definitely die, and if he left, Mingzhu would probably die of starvation or illness in this cave, so I felt somewhat unbearable.

Li Wenxuan sighed in his heart: "Forget it, let's recuperate here first, we can only take one step at a time."

At dusk, Li Wenxuan went out a few more times using a scabbard as a crutch, and took a lot of branches for lighting fires at night, and cut down a lot of wolfberry branches. Although the wolfberry tastes good, each grain is so small , It’s okay to fill your hunger temporarily, but if you want to eat full, it makes people anxious to eat, so Li Wenxuan walked a little further, and found a few pear trees in the woods. The big yellow and orange pears on them are very eye-catching. , Li Wenxuan couldn't count them, so he picked up a stone and smashed a pear, tasted it, it was really sweet and juicy, and thought: "It's not too bad to be here, to have these wild pears and goji berries for food."

So Li Wenxuan took more than a dozen pears and put them in his arms, and then returned to the cave. Seeing that Mingzhu was still lying motionless, and the goji berries in her hand had not been touched, Li Wenxuan said: "If you don't eat Those goji berries, I have pears, the taste is not bad, you can try it."

Putting a few pears by Mingzhu's hand, Li Wenxuan was afraid that she might be distracted by something, so he deliberately put one in Mingzhu's palm, then moved the fire pile to Mingzhu's side, took the kindling, and walked away from Mingzhu. , There was another fire at the entrance of the cave, and he leaned against the stone wall and ate pears.

Looking at the pears in his hands, Li Wenxuan remembered the time when he and Yue Ying were hiding in the woods before entering Chuzhou. At that time, Yue Ying picked a lot of sour pears to tease Li Wenxuan, which made Li Wenxuan laugh bitterly, until finally Yue Ying gave it to him. A pear that Li Wenxuan tasted personally, that pear is sweet, and it is also the sweetest pear that Li Wenxuan has eaten. Now the pears that Li Wenxuan picks are all big and sweet, and no matter what the color looks, they are better than the pears in Yue Ying's hand. There were a lot of them, but Li Wenxuan took a bite, but his heart was sore, and his eyes became wet again before he knew it.

A piece of firewood in the fire exploded, and sparks jumped onto the back of Li Wenxuan's hand. Li Wenxuan recovered from the pain, knocked down the sparks, and then wiped away his tears.Looking back at Mingzhu, she saw that she was still lying there, she hadn't eaten any pears, and the pears in her hand had rolled to the side.

Li Wenxuan couldn't help feeling a little strange, afraid that Mingzhu would die, and shouted: "Can you hear me? Move when you hear it?"

Mingzhu still didn't respond, so Li Wenxuan had no choice but to get close to her and gently pushed her. Seeing that she still didn't respond, he felt a little panicked, and shouted loudly: "Hey! Wake up, what's wrong with you?"

Mingzhu finally opened her eyes, but she looked as if she was suffering from some great pain. Li Wenxuan thought she was suffering from the cold like himself, and wanted to touch his forehead, but he saw Mingzhu's knife-like eyes , I can't stretch my hand out.He wanted to simply retreat back and ignore her, but seeing Mingzhu's fists clenched tightly and trembling, Li Wenxuan turned around and asked, "Did you get hurt somewhere? The pain is severe?"

Mingzhu closed her eyes and still said nothing, but Li Wenxuan thought that her eyes were like knives just now, she was very energetic, she didn't seem to be sick at all, so she concluded that she was injured somewhere, most likely a broken bone.So he looked her whole body carefully, not to mention Li Wenxuan, even if it was a doctor who had rejuvenated his hands, it was difficult to see where Mingzhu was injured after looking at her like this.

Li Wenxuan asked: "Where is your injury? I'll show you if it's convenient."

Mingzhu still remained silent, Li Wenxuan was helpless, and suddenly remembered that he had just untied the acupuncture points on Mingzhu's upper body, Mingzhu's lower body was still unable to move, so he opened the acupuncture points on the lower body, but almost at the same time as the acupoints were untied, Mingzhu moaned heavily She let out a cry, and then saw a lot of cold sweat on her forehead, and her legs curled up slightly, but this curled up made her face even paler.

Li Wenxuan asked, "You hurt your leg, didn't you?"

Mingzhu remained silent, but at this time, half of her didn't want to say anything, and the other half was too painful to speak.

Li Wenxuan said: "Okay, it doesn't matter if you don't talk, but if there is something wrong with your leg, whether it is a dislocated joint or a broken joint, you must quickly fix the bones, otherwise the bones will grow in the future and will be misplaced." Yes, walking will also become a cripple, let me help you see, although I am not a doctor, but my rib was broken by a star chaser, I took it myself."

Li Wenxuan kindly wanted to show her the injury, but Ming Zhu ignored her all the time, Li Wenxuan was really angry in his heart, and said, "I'm kind enough to help you, it's fine if you don't appreciate it!" Li Wenxuan went back to the entrance of the cave to close his eyes and rest , but after a while, I only heard the rustling sound coming from Mingzhu. I didn't care much at first, but after a long time, I couldn't help but look at it. It turned out that Mingzhu was in severe pain and was lying on the ground trembling. stop.

Li Wenxuan sighed: "Forget it, after all, it's because I hurt you." When he reached Ming Zhu's side, he said, "I'm sorry, I did this for your own good, and I didn't intend to offend you. It hurts a bit, so bear with it." Seeing that Mingzhu's knees were bent, and the injured part should be below the knees, he reached out to touch her calf bone, but as soon as Li Wenxuan touched her calf, Mingzhu picked up a stone and threw it at him.

Falling from that cliff, Li Wenxuan himself was also covered in injuries. The stone in Mingzhu's hand has not been released yet. Li Wenxuan has excellent eyesight and has already seen it clearly, but his eyes can see that Li Wenxuan's body just doesn't obey. , knowing that moving to the left by three inches would allow him to dodge, but it was these three inches that stumped Li Wenxuan, and Li Wenxuan couldn't dodge in time, the stone hit Li Wenxuan's forehead.

"Oh! You! Why are you like this!" Li Wenxuan touched his forehead, it was wet, and it turned out that he was bleeding from being smashed by Mingzhu.At this time Li Wenxuan really wanted to leave her behind and ignore her, but when he saw Mingzhu frowning tightly and looking very painful, his heart softened again, he snorted, and said, "Just treat it as my debt to you!"

Taking advantage of Mingzhu's eyes closed, Li Wenxuan immediately clicked Mingzhu's acupoints again. Mingzhu was startled and looked at Li Wenxuan with some trepidation. connect.

Li Wenxuan groped for Mingzhu's calf, but he didn't expect that both of Mingzhu's calf bones were broken. Although he was slashed by Mingzhu before, he regretted it a little at this time, and felt that it was disgraceful for him to drag her on his back.

It took Li Wenxuan a lot of effort to connect Mingzhu's leg bones, because Li Wenxuan is not a doctor after all, although he can connect the bones, but his technique is much worse, and men and women can't kiss each other, Li Wenxuan touched her leg bones He was also trembling, not having to give himself the freedom to set his bones. It is conceivable that if Mingzhu could move at this time, he would have died of pain. They were tightly twisted together, knowing that his hand hurt her, and wanted to be lighter, but the more so, the more difficult it was for Mingzhu, and finally passed out from the pain.
