But very quickly, the awkwardness on her face dissipated and was replaced by a dignified expression.
There were many knife wounds on Xie Jing Xing's body. These knife wounds were not deep but there were a lot of them. Even though they were not fatal, Shen Miao knew that with so many knife wounds, just the blood loss alone would be enough to kill a person. At that moment she did not dare to be careless and immediately used a handkerchief dipped in hot water to wipe off the blood stains around Xie Jing Xing and took out the medicinal powder from the medicine bottle and sprinkled it on. After searching for a long time and not finding a clean cloth, Shen Miao could only take out a new cloth that she made and bandaged Xie Jing Xing's wounds. Shen Miao had never bandaged anyone before but she had seen how Shen Qiu's soldiers did it before, thus she followed suit. Even though it was somewhat ugly, at least the bleeding had stopped.
She then took out a few pills to replenish qi and blood from the cabinet. Those were bought by Luo Tan and it was said that a female's complexion would not be good during their menstruation and eating this would make them look better. Even though Xie Jing Xing was not on his menstruation, he had lost a lot of blood and this should be able to replenish it. Shen Miao crushed the pills and soaked them in hot water before feeding it to Xie Jing Xing to drink.
After finishing everything, the night was so deep that it was like a thick fog that could not be dispersed. Even the muttering of the animals could not be heard outside. Xie Jing Xing was lying on her bed with his upper body naked and his body was wrapped in three layers of Shen Miao's chest cloth. No matter how one looked at it, it was strange.
Shen Miao's lips twitched and she planned to turn Xie Jing Xing over and check if there were any other injuries on his body.
Xie Jing Xing's clothes were wet but his pants were dry, thus Shen Miao did not suspect that his waist and back were only injured. When she was turning Xie Jing Xing, her hand inadvertently touched Xie Jing Xing's thigh. Shen Miao was like being burned by fire and was about to retract her hand when she suddenly felt that something was not right.
The skin under her hand was hard and was not as delicate as other uninjured skin. Instead it was like a thick layer of scab. Her heart moved and she subconsciously lifted Xie Jing Xing's trousers and saw that in the depths of Xie Jing Xing's lower abdomen, there was a terrible scar that was spreading inwards.
This was different from the new scars that Xie Jing Xing had added today. Although there were a lot of scars today, they were not deep, so they were not fatal. However, this one was twisted and turned, and the color of the wound was very heavy. It was clearly an old wound, but after so long, there was still such a deep scar. It was clear that the injury was deep enough to see the bone. It was a ghastly sight.
When Xie Jing Xing was in Ming Qi, one did not hear that he was injured. Could it be that he was injured in the Great Liang? Shen Miao's heart was filled with suspicions but she found out that there were other wounds. There were big and small wounds and every one of them was deep to the bone. Although the wound had already healed, people couldn't help but be flabbergasted. How did Xie Jing Xing survive so many life and death tribulations?
She did not discover that she had already touched Xie Jing Xing's thigh and was about to touch downwards when the person on the bed gave a muffled grunt and grabbed her wrist. Shen Miao's face turned red as she thought that Xie Jing Xing had woken up and misunderstood that she was taking advantage of him. She subconsciously looked at Xie Jing Xing, but saw that Xie Jing Xing's brows were tightly knitted and lips were pursed. Both his eyes had not opened and it seemed that he had not woken up.
Shen Miao heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. Even though she still had doubts about those scars, she did not dare to touch further. Xie Jing Xing's clothes were already torn by her, so Shen Miao could only take an outer garment that she made and put it on for Xie Jing Xing to wear, covering him tightly. She was afraid that Xie Jing Xing's wounds would not have a fever in the night, so she moved a stool and sat in front of the bed to guard.
She did not know when she fell asleep.
The morning sun shone brightly and the rooster crowed. When Shen Miao woke up, she discovered that she was already sleeping on the bed and her body was covered with a thick bedding. She clearly remembered that she was sitting in front of the bed to guard Xie Jing Xing last night, but did not expect that she would actually fall asleep in the middle. Most likely she was extremely tired that she did not even know that she was moved to another place when she slept.
