"Seventh Brother!"
"Your Highness the Seventh Prince!"
Feng Yu Heng and Ban Zou both had sharp ears and immediately looked in the direction of the sound.
They saw a figure appear from the depths of the snowy mountain. His footsteps were very slow and he walked with great difficulty.
Feng Yu Heng crawled up from the ground and dashed towards that figure.
She recognized that it was Xuan Tianhua. Although he walked very slowly and was in a bit of a difficult situation, that was the seventh prince who was like an immortal. She was all too familiar with this feeling. It was like a lotus blooming from the ground. No matter when or where, he could calm a person's heart with a single glance. Even if she was feeling very uneasy at this moment, the moment she saw Xuan Tianhua, she also calmed down.
"Don't run. Be careful not to fall." Xuan Tianhua watched as a small figure rushed towards him. She was slippery as she ran, nearly tripping several times. He wanted to walk a few steps faster to meet her, but unfortunately, he had squashed his ankle during the avalanche, making it difficult for him to move.
"Seventh Brother!" Finally, she stood in front of Xuan Tianhua. She ran until she was out of breath. Her small face was red, like a doll from a New Year's painting.
Xuan Tianhua subconsciously raised his hand and pushed aside the hair in front of her forehead. He really wanted to pinch her cheeks, but when his hand moved over, he put it down again.
"I'm fine." He opened his mouth. His voice was calm, neither too far nor too close, neither too distant nor too distant.
This kind of feeling suddenly made Feng Yu Heng a bit afraid. She grabbed Xuan Tianhua's sleeve and anxiously asked: "Seventh Brother, are you injured? Where are you hurt? "As she spoke, she rubbed his head," Do you still remember who I am? I am Heng! How can you talk to me like this? "
Xuan Tianhua was momentarily dazed. He wanted to grab her hand, but Feng Yu Heng was not obedient at all. She would pat his head for a moment and then pinch his neck for a moment. Her small stature could not reach him, but she would always jump up. It was very funny.
But he couldn't bring himself to smile.
On the day of his mother's death, an avalanche buried him and his entourage under the snow. He tried his best to drag the little follower out, but in the end, he couldn't bring him out from under the snow.
He sat in the snow for a long time. Firstly, his feet hurt so much that he couldn't move. Secondly, he hoped that the boy would suddenly appear. His follower had followed him for more than ten years. Every year, he would come here with him to pay his respects, but in the end, he would lose his life here. How could he not be worried?
For the first time in Xuan Tianhua's life, he regretted not bringing more people with him when he went out. He always relied on his Kung Fu, but he was too conceited and lost a life. He had been trapped in this place for two days and one night. He had almost given up all hope when he heard the girl's heart-wrenching cries for her Seventh Brother.
He was like an immortal, but he wasn't an immortal. There would always be times when there would be people and things that could touch his heart. For example, that night in Phoenix Firmiana County, when this girl had weakly collapsed in the ruins like a little kitten, it had aroused all the tenderness in his heart.
"Seventh Brother, it's all right." His tone finally softened, and his face returned to its usual warm and genial smile. "Silly girl, why did you come out in such a heavy snow?"
"To find you!" She told him the truth. "If it was only snowing, I wouldn't have come. But they said that there was an avalanche in the north of the city, so I can't hide in the city anymore. Seventh Brother, at that time, you were able to bring me out of the burning ruins. Today, I have made up my mind. Even if I have to use my hands, I will pull you out of the snow. "
Feng Yu Heng's face was filled with stubbornness. Her little nose pointed up as she spoke very seriously.
Xuan Tianhua pulled her hand. Although his feet were injured, he still insisted on supporting the little girl. Step by step, they walked back with difficulty. As they walked, he said, "Seventh Brother is not dead. Even if he is buried in the snow, he can climb up. It's just that the people who came with me can't go back with me. Girl, Seventh Brother is sad. "
She didn't answer. If Xuan Tianhua said he was sad, then he was really sad. But such a person always made people not know how to comfort him. In his eyes, she was a child. A child comforting an adult was always a bit funny. Fortunately, there was still company. She could quietly accompany him by his side and be a good listener. When he finished, she would smile like a child. She would listen to what she should listen to and forget what she should forget.
However, Xuan Tianhua only said that one sentence. After that, he didn't say a word. He just held her hand a little tighter and didn't let go for a long time.
The group of people kept walking back like this. Wang Zhuo looked at Xuan Tianhua's injured feet and offered to carry him, but was refused. How could someone as proud as Xuan Tianhua, as immortal as Xuan Tianhua, bend over someone's back?
Feng Yu Heng couldn't help but want to use her space to send him back several times, but she had no choice but to swallow the words that reached her mouth. In the end, she didn't have the courage to share that secret with anyone, even if it was Xuan Tianhua.
They walked and rested from night to dawn. When they finally saw the capital's north gate, Xuan Tianhua couldn't hold on any longer. He leaned against a tree and slid to the ground.
The person who had always been otherworldly was in such a sorry state, but he never let go of Feng Yu Heng's hand.
She half-knelt on the ground with him and used her other hand to hold his ankle. Her voice carried a pleading tone as she said: "Just let me take a look for you, okay?" Seeing that Xuan Tianhua didn't say anything for a long time, Feng Yu Heng straightforwardly instructed Wang Chuan: "You guys go first and return to Hundred Herb Hall. We're almost there. I'll accompany Seventh Brother for the rest of the journey."
Wang Chuan only nodded and didn't say anything. She knew that Ban Zou was still there. The city gate was right in front of them. It would definitely be fine. As a result, she brought Huang Quan and Wang Zhuo back to the city first.
Once they were far away, Feng Yu Heng turned her head and said to the black-clothed figure that had been following them the entire time: "Ban Zou, you also go back."
"No." The figure flashed forward a few steps and stood in front of the two, "If you don't go back, I can't go alone."
"Seventh Brother is here. It's fine."
"His Highness the Seventh Prince is injured."
"Ban Zou!" Feng Yu Heng was angry, but her eyes stared straight at Xuan Tianhua's injured ankle. After a while, she said: "Let's go first. I beg you."
Xuan Tianhua shook his head slightly at her, "No need. Just watch." After he finished speaking, he took the initiative to take off his shoes and socks. His swollen ankle made this action very difficult. He used a lot of strength to take it off.
Ban Zou took a few steps back and turned around. Although he did not leave, he did not look in their direction.
He had been at Xuan Tianming's side since he was a child, so he naturally understood this Seventh Prince very well. In his impression, let alone taking off his shoes and socks, he had never even put on his outer robe in front of outsiders before. Every time that Xuan Tian Hua appeared in front of people, he would always have an otherworldly and deity-like appearance. He did not look the slightest bit disheveled, and he did not lose his composure in the slightest. Even in front of Xuan Tian Ming and Imperial Concubine Yun, he was no exception.
Feng Yu Heng had him leave because she did not want to break Xuan Tianhua's habits. However, he was a hidden guard. Protecting Feng Yu Heng was more important than protecting his own life. He had already made a mistake once in Phoenix Firmiana County. In the future, he could not do it again.
Feng Yu Heng glanced at Ban Zou and did not say anything else. She only moved her body and stood between Ban Zou and Xuan Tianhua.
Xuan Tianhua knew her intentions, but he could only sigh softly in his heart.
"It's a wrong tendon, but the bone isn't broken." Feng Yu Heng pulled her hand out of Xuan Tianhua's large palm and carefully examined his injuries, "But we can't rule out the possibility of a bone fracture." She raised her head to look at Xuan Tianhua and said: "I'll give you some painkillers. Endure it for a while. When we enter the city, follow me back to Hundred Herb Hall. I'll take a good look at you."
Xuan Tianhua nodded, "It's all yours."
Feng Yu Heng did not say anything else. She reached into her sleeve and pulled out a painkiller spray from her space.
The sleeves of her winter clothes were wide and easy to hide, so Xuan Tianhua did not become suspicious. He only looked at the thing in her hand and asked: "This is the same thing that Ming used before, right?"
She sprayed it on the injured area as she said: "Right, Xuan Tianming used it before, and Feiyu also used it before."
Xuan Tianhua only felt the coolness of the spray on the injured area. The original pain immediately lessened, and after a while, it was completely replaced by numbness. He did not feel any pain at all.
"It really is miraculous." He sighed at the medicine bottle and said: "But I can't feel my feet at all. I … … can't walk."
"Your Highness, this subordinate will carry you." Ban Zou turned around and looked at Xuan Tianhua. His eyes were pleading, "It's almost dawn. Master has been looking for you all night. She … …"
"How about you carry me." Xuan Tianhua cut him off and took the initiative to speak. This caused Feng Yu Heng to frown. "It's fine." He patted her shoulder, "It's more important to go back earlier."
"Then I'll help you put on your shoes." Feng Yu Heng lowered her head and silently picked up Xuan Tianhua's shoes and socks. She stubbornly refused his attempt to snatch them away and insisted on personally putting them on for him. "You want me to call you Seventh Brother, so just treat me as your younger sister. It's normal for a younger sister to put on her older brother's shoes. Moreover, Seventh Brother, you've saved my life twice." Whether it was in the suffocating river water or the suffocating ruins of the fire, the person who had pulled her out of hell was Xuan Tianhua.
Finally, Ban Zou placed the person on his back then grabbed Feng Yu Heng with one hand. Using his qinggong, he was able to carry the weight of two people and soar into the air. Although his speed was slower than usual, it was still better than walking back step by step.
When they were about to reach the city gates, Ban Zou took the initiative to put down Xuan Tianhua. Instead of carrying him on his back, he supported him. Wang Zhuo, who had returned first, was already waiting at the gate. When he saw them return, he quickly ran over and said to Feng Yu Heng: "Those two girls said they were going back to Hundred Herb Hall first. This little one has prepared a stretcher. Do you want to use it?"
Feng Yu Heng shook her head and asked him: "Can carriages travel in the city now?"
Wang Zhuo thought for a bit and said: "This little one will bring a few people to clear the way. The carriages will travel a bit slower, but it should be fine."
"Then prepare the carriage."
She supported Xuan Tianhua to the side to rest for a bit. After a short while, Wang Zhuo found the carriage. Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianhua sat in the carriage. Ban Zou personally drove the carriage while Wang Zhuo led a group of people to clear the snow in front.
The carriage finally stopped in front of Hundred Herb Hall. Feng Yu Heng let out a sigh of relief and Xuan Tianhua let out a sigh of relief. The two of them actually said at the same time, "It has been hard on you." Then they looked at each other and laughed with a shrug of their shoulders.
Because Wang Chuan and Huang Quan had returned before them, they were already waiting at the entrance of Hundred Herb Hall with Wang Lin. Ban Zou saw the place and handed the carriage to Wang Lin. Then he disappeared in a flash. Wang Lin was already used to this. He walked over to the carriage and steadied it. Then Wang Chuan, Huang Quan, and Feng Yu Heng worked together to help Xuan Tianhua out of the carriage. The group of people finally entered the room.
Wang Lin tidied up his room for Xuan Tianhua. After Feng Yu Heng helped him sit down, she immediately sent everyone away. When the door was closed and only the two of them were left, she said, "Seventh Brother, I want to give you a good examination of your feet, but this examination method is a bit special. I have to explain it to you first."
Xuan Tianhua waved his hand. "I believe you."
"Good." Feng Yu Heng nodded and left the room. When she returned, she brought back a set of infusion equipment.
Xuan Tianhua watched in amazement as a large bottle was hung up and a tube was inserted into it. There was a very thin needle at the end of the tube, which was aimed at the back of his hand. In just a moment, his mind went blank and he lost consciousness.
