Heartache, heartache was unable to describe how Han Yunxi was feeling at this moment.
The number of patients she had come into contact with in both her previous and current life added up to more than ten thousand people. She had seen many who were more severely injured than Gu.
She was a very dedicated Poison Doctor but she wasn't a good tempered one. Every time a patient screamed out in pain or fear, she would reprimand them.
How could it not hurt when he was injured? There was no use in shouting! He would never recover if he didn't get treated!
But facing Gu's back which was covered with arrow wounds, she felt heartache for him.
It was all to save her, otherwise this fellow wouldn't be in such a state! If she wasn't so useless and knew some martial arts, or had better poison skills, this fellow wouldn't have been injured so badly.
Besides feeling heartache, Han Yunxi's heart was filled with guilt and self-reproach.
Gu saw that she was about to cry and he was so happy that he laughed, "Poison Lass, cry if you want to."
He liked it when she cried for him. If she cried only for him, he would be even happier.
This fellow was already in such a state and he was still so shameless? Han Yunxi glared fiercely at him and ignored him as she immediately started to treat his wounds.
Gu's back had too many injuries and they were all thumb-sized holes. They were densely packed and were all badly mutilated.
God knows what those people's arrows were. Once they entered a person's body, they immediately rebounded and fell like a sword, causing a second injury and increasing the rate of bleeding.
Han Yunxi was afraid that once the effect of the emergency hemostatic medicine wore off, Gu would lose a lot of blood. Although this fellow was still trying to show off his ability, his face was already very pale.
She made a prompt decision to apply another round of emergency hemostatic medicine and started to treat each wound carefully from top to bottom.
Previously when she applied the medicine to avoid the black robed expert, the situation was urgent and Gu didn't feel anything. But this time when the medicine was applied on his wounds, Gu really felt the pain!
It was so damn painful!
He had been afraid of pain since he was young and was extremely afraid.
However, not only did he not show it, he even laughed and turned to look at Han Yunxi, "Poison Lass! Your eyes are clearly red, and your heart is aching … "
"You bitch, get down on your stomach! Do you want to die?! "
Han Yunxi immediately cursed. It was not because she was embarrassed and angry that her eyes were red, nor was it because she was worried about his wound. She was just depressed that this guy was about to die from his injury. Why was he still so restless and teasing her all the time?
The wound would bleed once the medicinal effect wore off. If it wasn't treated within an hour, this fellow would definitely die from excessive blood loss!
You only know how to show off! You only know how to tease!
Her heart ached so much. Why didn't he feel any heartache for himself?
Gu suddenly stopped laughing and asked faintly, "Girl, are you afraid that I'll die?"
She didn't know if Han Yunxi was too serious to hear her or if she heard her and was too lazy to answer. In short, she ignored her.
Gu also stopped joking and obediently laid down on his stomach and closed his eyes.
He was indeed powerless, but it wasn't fatal. He had an immortal body. As long as he was willing, not to mention one batch of crossbow archers, even if there were ten batches, he would still be able to meet the arrows head-on and kill them all.
But he had to hide the secret of his immortal body. He could only carry Han Yunxi and escape. He could only pretend that he was extremely weak and stubbornly try to show off.
Although this woman's poison skills were exquisite and her medical skills were average, but if he wasn't careful, it was very possible that she would discover something strange.
At this moment, Han Yunxi had already treated two wounds, disinfected, applied medicine and stopped the bleeding.
The wounds were densely packed and she couldn't bandage them one by one. She pondered over whether to quickly treat all the wounds or she would have to wrap Gu up like a dumpling.
Of course, although she didn't say it, she was not only concerned about Gu's wounds, but also his complexion, pulse and mental state.
Although he was seriously injured, this guy did seem to be in good condition.
She only thought that Gu was just trying to show off. In addition, she had already given him five large Life-saving Medicinal Pills. With Gu's physique as a martial arts practitioner, his performance wasn't too abnormal.
The room was silent. Gu's entire body relaxed, but Han Yunxi's nerves were taut. Her entire body was tense, and her hands didn't stop moving for a moment. She was nimble and straightforward, precise and experienced.
So far, the wounds she treated weren't deep, so it was easy to treat.
She even forgot that she had a wound on her right shoulder as well. Because the arrow had been shot so deeply, the three-cun bolt was still embedded in her flesh. Gu Qishao was probably too happy to notice it.
At this moment, Han Yunxi found a very deep wound. She had just used disinfectant to clean the coagulated blood when a gush of blood spurted out.
She panicked and decisively took out the strongest medicine to stop the bleeding and sprinkled it on the wound. Gu quivered and his body trembled!
His bloody skin and flesh were lacerated. When the medicine came into contact with the blood, it bubbled. Gu was in so much pain that he couldn't bear it.
Although his smile was ugly, he still grinned. "Poison Lass, are you plotting to kill me?"
Plotting to kill me?!
He was in so much pain, and he could still say that!
Han Yunxi really wanted to tell him that she was convinced, but she didn't have the time!
She looked serious as she continued to apply medicine while plugging the wound. However, the bleeding didn't stop.
She didn't hesitate and immediately applied anesthesia on Gu. This wound had to be stitched up, and the sooner the better!
Without anesthesia, Gu Beiyue's wound became numb and the pain gradually disappeared.
He secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't know how Poison Lass had tormented his wound, but he was very relieved.
After a moment of silence, he couldn't help but turn back to look. Of course, he couldn't see Han Yunxi's hand movements. All he could see was Han Yunxi's serious little face.
"Poison Lass, you're quite scary like this."
"Poison Lass, what are you doing?"
"Poison Lass, how long will it take? I'm a little hungry."
…
Han Yunxi didn't pay him any attention. He was simply talking to himself, but he seemed to be enjoying himself.
As he spoke, his gaze couldn't help but move downwards and fixed on her naked neck. It was fair and delicate, as clear as ice and jade. He realized that this woman had a very nice looking collarbone.
He couldn't help but stare blankly and gradually quieted down.
At this moment, footsteps were heard from outside the door. It seemed that the soldiers had arrived.
A trace of displeasure flashed past Gu's eyes. He suddenly grabbed the blanket and covered Han Yunxi and himself completely.
Han Yunxi was busy stitching up his wound and being disturbed, she got angry. "What are you doing?"
So be it if the soldiers were here. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to find him in the entire city.
She was about to pull the blanket away when Gu suddenly flipped over and pulled her back. "Shh ….. are you intending to get someone to catch us in the act of adultery in bed?"
Although he was frivolous, he still cared about her reputation.
Han Yunxi immediately stopped. There were many things that couldn't be explained away, especially this kind of thing! It was better not to explain at all. If she didn't explain, it was better to hide it!
Hence, one was lying down while the other was kneeling. With the blanket covering them, the two people in disheveled clothes put on a 'lively and fragrant' show.
When the soldiers barged in, they didn't see Han Yunxi's face who was covered up tightly. They only saw Gu's bare arms and a look of pleasure on his face. He was enjoying himself very much!
The officer glanced at them disdainfully. Seeing that there was no one hiding around, he went out.
After making sure that the person had gone far away, Han Yunxi hurriedly got up and locked the door. Gu slowly turned over. The half-stitched wound was gushing out blood again!
"Damn it!"
Han Yunxi was angry and distressed. She regretted it. How could she be so muddle-headed in a moment of desperation? She really shouldn't have let Gu turn over. If she was caught in the act of adultery, so be it. If her reputation was ruined, then so be it. Those who believed her would believe her, but she didn't care about those who didn't believe her!
Her hands were trembling. She impatiently waved her hands to calm herself down before she started stitching up again.
Gu was really tired. He turned his head and looked at her quietly.
There were a lot of wounds. There were three or four deep wounds. Han Yunxi didn't rest and kept working on them. In the small room, the strong scent of cosmetics was gradually replaced by the smell of blood. However, the air was filled with a warm atmosphere.
Outside the room, the entire imperial city was in an uproar!
The hidden guards in the Gu Residence had not seen Gu Qi Sha appear, and something had happened in the fireworks district in the south of the city. Mu Qingwu was very sure that Gu Qi Sha and Han Yunxi had been chased all the way to the fireworks district.
He acted first and reported later. He ordered the four city gates to be locked down and mobilized half of the imperial guards to search the entire city.
At this time, he was personally searching the alleys of the fireworks district. The Crown Prince, Long Tianmo, searched for half a day before he found him.
"What's the situation?"
"We found a crossbow arrow and traces of blood here. They disappeared all the way to the entrance of a brothel. We've also searched the entire brothel, but we didn't find them."
Long Tianmo nodded and said in a low voice, "Send the other half of the imperial guards to protect the imperial palace."
"What?" Mu Qingwu didn't understand. He had been thinking that if they still couldn't find them in an hour, he would have to send more men.
"Acting first and reporting later. If you don't find an excuse for yourself, will you be able to bear the consequences when imperial father blames you?" Long Tianmo asked seriously.
Mu Qingwu was the Young General and the commander of the imperial guards. He held the responsibility of protecting the imperial palace and the imperial city.
For the sake of rescuing Qin Wangfei, he not only ordered the city gates to be locked down, but also mobilized half of the imperial guards. What would Emperor Tianhui think? It'd be strange if he didn't seize the chance to strip him of his military power!
If he mobilized half of the imperial guards to protect the imperial city and escalated the matter from an assassination attempt on Qin Wangfei to an enemy infiltrating the city, then everything would be different.
Mu Qingwu immediately understood Long Tianmo's reminder. "Your Highness's reminder is right. This soldier will do it right away!"
He was about to leave when Long Tianmo stopped him again. He purposely dismissed the surrounding soldiers and asked in a low voice, "The imperial guards at the Gu Residence changed sides? What's going on? "
Long Tianmo had just returned from the Gu Residence and seen the young commander killed by a sword. Based on his understanding of Mu Qingwu, the man was honest and upright, but not stupid. He wouldn't kill a traitor out of anger.
If the traitor was dead, who would they find to force out the mastermind behind the scenes?
This was clearly a move to silence them, but Long Tianmo had no reason to suspect Mu Qingwu. Many of his men wanted the Duke of Qin and Qin Wangfei dead, but Mu Qingwu would never do that!
