Chapter 234: Is This Little Enough?

However, if he went over now, he might still be able to save Miss Ning’s life from the wolf’s mouth. It was only her life…
Even if she was still alive, His Highness couldn’t possibly let her be the princess consort, right?
“Yun Yi! Stop right there!”
Accompanying this voice was a sword that flashed with a cold light. It was a sword he was very familiar with.
“Yo, Little Two has grown up. You don’t even call me ‘Chief anymore?” Yun Er’s heart ached and her eyes turned red. “You also know that you used to be our chief?”
Yun Er’s sword moves did not stop. Yun Yi was older than them and everyone treated him as their real older brother. They hated him as much as they trusted him back then. “Are you worthy of His Highness’s nurturing all these years?”
-Are you worthy of His Highness personally jumping into the cold lake in February to save you from His Second Highness?
Yun Yi sighed and caught the swords that attacked him one after another. “It’s just that we each have our own masters.”
These words pierced the hearts of the other guards. Yun San and Yun Wu, who had just rushed over, also joined the battle. Under the siege, even Yun Yi, who was the most skilled among them, was gradually at a disadvantage. At this moment, they had already arrived in front of a waterfall.
“Yun Yi, surrender. You have nowhere to run.
Yun Yi looked behind him and then looked at his body full of injuries. He suddenly smiled.
“Little brats, if you want to catch me, you can do it in your next life.” After saying that, he jumped down the endless waterfall…
On the other side, when Rong Yan arrived at the wolf pack surrounded by fire, he saw the fallen tree and the remains all over the ground in blood.
His heart stopped, but in the next moment, his brain told him rationally that it was not a human corpse.
“Ning Xiaoxiao! Xiaoxiao!”
Xiaoxiao, who was hiding in her space, immediately heard these shouts. The flames outside were too strong, so she simply lay in her space and closed her eyes During this period, she even took the time to eat something and drink a glass of water. When she suddenly heard Little Big Brother’s shout, she thought that it was an illusion.
Looking again, this person was actually facing the wolf pack alone.
Under such a situation, Xiaoxiao couldn’t see Rong Yan’s expression clearly, but she could feel a sense of determination from his actions. Seeing that this person was about to rush into the fire, she hurriedly let the space throw raw meat furthest away from the wolf pack while running out of the space to grab
Rong Yan and run.
The softness in her hand made Rong feel unreal. “Xiaoxiao?”
Xiaoxiao hummed. “Hurry up and run, Little Big Brother. Wolves have four legs!”
Rong Yan picked her up without thinking and jumped out of the range of the flames. He only remembered to ask when they were safe, “How did you
escape?”
Xiaoxiao started to act freely. “Originally, I was climbing trees to hide from the wolves. Who knew that Yun Yi would actually cut down the tree I was hiding in. Fortunately, I was lucky. When the tree fell, it happened to be on another tree. I moved over and avoided the range of the fire. After he ran away, I hooked onto the third tree’s branch from that tree and moved to the third tree. I was hiding and waiting for the wolf to leave when I heard your voice.”
Rong Yan was not in the mood to complain about her monkey-like explanation. When the wolves behind him were almost inaudible, he put her down and hugged her tightly.
Between being reserved and her instinct, Xiaoxiao chose the latter. She also reached out to hug him and even patted his back. “Don’t be afraid, don’t be
afraid. I’m fine.”
Rong Yan was so angry that he laughed. This time, he was in the mood to remember what this girl had said before she was kidnapped.
He straightened her up and said with a serious expression, “Why did you tell
Yun Yi that the thing is in your hands?”
Xiaoxiao felt that she could tell from Little Big Brother’s tone that a storm was coming. Looking at his disheveled and anxious face, and his tattered clothes, her heart softened. “Because… I don’t like you to be put in a difficult position. I don’t like you to be gaslighted. I can’t bear to see you being looked at with such disapproving gazes by others.”
“My Little Big Brother, no matter who you are, I hope you don’t frown and don’t be sad. I hope that everything you want in this life will be fulfilled. I hope that you’ll be safe and carefree.”
She took out a small fur ball from her sleeve. “I shouldn’t say it now, but I’m afraid your birthday will be over soon.”
She stuffed the little furball made of rabbit fur into Rong Yan’s hand and said, -I just don’t want you to be surrounded by bad moods on the day you’re born. Little Big Brother, happy birthday.”
She smiled brightly, but Rong Yan felt his eyes sting.
He originally thought that today would be the worst birthday in his life… From afar, he saw torches approaching. Yun Er and the others’ worried voices were getting closer and closer. Rong Yan, who had been tense for the entire day, relaxed and his entire body softened. “Fortunately, you’re fine.” Feeling that her shoulder had become heavier, Xiaoxiao was filled with panic. Only then did she realize that there was an abnormally sticky feeling on her palm that was holding Rong Yan. She raised her hand to look under the light of the fire. “Quick! He’s injured!”
Without thinking, she stuffed a few pieces of ginseng into his mouth. Xiaoxiao gently handed him over to Yun Er and the others while she obediently followed everyone out of the mountain.
She only found out how serious Rong Yan’s injuries were after returning to the Shen Family. Gongsun Zhongjing frowned and cleaned his wounds. “There are a lot of wounds, and the time to treat it was delayed. There are signs of pus in the blood, and his body temperature is abnormal. It will take a longer time for me to clean his wounds. I’m afraid he won’t be able to take it. Do you have ginseng, lingzhi, and other old herbs in Lord Shen’s residence? The older, the better.”
County Magistrate Shen frowned so hard that it could kill a mosquito. Generally speaking, the rich and powerful people would have these life-saving things at home, but… in order to keep Doctor Gongsun, the precious herbs of the Shen Family had been given to Li Muyan for the old lady to use not long ago…
The older the ginseng and lingzhi, the more difficult it was to obtain them. It was not something that could be obtained just because one had money, just as he was trying to recall the surname of the person closest to him who might have these things, he heard Xiaoxiao, who was quiet at the side, ask, “Is this okay?”
She took out two pieces of fresh ginseng that looked like they had just been unearthed…
[Ding! The 100-year-old ginseng has been successfully exchanged.]
[Ding! The 100-year-old lingzhi has been successfully exchanged. Boohoohoo, your current points balance is 33,000.]
Even Gongsun Zhongjing, who was knowledgeable in the field of medicinal herbs, was stunned by the herbs. “This… This is actually fresh ginseng and lingzhi that are more than too years old and have excellent quality? Where drd you find them?”
Xiaoxiao gave it to him. “I saw it in the mountains when I was escaping. Can we use it?”
Needless to say, Gongsun Zhongjing immediately took out a silver needle and stopped Rong Yan’s bleeding. Then, he carefully cleaned the soil on the herbs, cut off a piece the size of his fingertip, and wrote down the prescription. “Fry the herbs according to this prescription.”
just as he was about to return the rest to Xiaoxiao, he saw her wave her hand. “I’ll leave it with you. You can take it anytime if you want to use it.. Is it enough for his medicine?”
