Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 334
Chapter 334 To Build Castles in the Air
After Yun Xiao placed Rong Jin’s head, she walked to the side and checked the injuries on Rong Jin’s hands.
Previously, when he looked at the wound from afar, he felt that it was shocking. He took it to his eyes to examine it, only to discover that not a single part of his skin was intact. Especially his fingers, there was even a patch of blood and flesh mixed with mud-like flesh, causing people to be shocked.
When Yun Xiao saw this, her eyebrows furrowed tightly and she didn’t say anything. Her heart was also pounding with pain. Originally, Rong Jin didn’t need to endure these things, but for his own sake, he escaped with her, not to mention that he had fallen into this situation.
Yun Xiao touched her waist. Fortunately, before leaving the cave, she stuffed a bamboo tube into her bosom. There was still a little water inside. She tore off the hem of her undergarment. Yun Xiao touched a little water and wiped Rong Jin’s wound.
There wasn’t a single intact ground on Rong Jin’s hand. The moment he touched the water, Rong Jin twitched slightly in pain.
Yun Xiao raised her head and looked at Rong Jin. She discovered that besides cold sweat on his forehead, his face was still warm and moist. The corner of his mouth also contained a smile that was not a smile, as if he was mocking her.
Yun Xiao’s brows furrowed tightly. Who exactly was this person she met? This kind of pain was actually able to endure without saying anything, not to mention the pain of taking a deep breath.
If she hadn’t felt Rong Jin’s body tighten in an instant, she would have thought that Rong Jin really didn’t feel the slightest bit of pain.
Yun Xiao’s face also became slightly embarrassed. She coughed softly and said, “If you feel pain, then let out a cry.”
However, Rong Jin still smiled and looked at Yun Xiao. The smile at the corner of his mouth became even more charming. However, what he said made Yun Xiao frown, “It’s fine, I’m not in pain. You can continue.”
Since the injured people didn’t feel the pain anymore, there was no need for him to worry here.
Yun Xiao snorted coldly. Since she wasn’t afraid of pain, was she? Then don’t cry out for pain!
Thinking of this, Yun Xiao’s subordinates also showed no mercy.
He continued to wipe Rong Jin’s hand, no matter where he was injured or where he wiped it, the strength in his hand also lost its initial gentleness.
Rong Jin only felt his hand twitch in pain, but he was secretly regretting the time he had spent twitching. He shouldn’t have said that he didn’t feel pain just now.
However, his words had already come out of his mouth, and it was not easy to retort. However, Rong Jin looked at Yun Xiao above his head. Seeing that she was having fun, he did not say anything. He could only grind his teeth and endure the pain coming from his wrist.
Yun Xiao wiped her hands for a while. Looking up, she saw that Rong Jin’s face was once again covered in sweat because of endurance. She remembered that Rong Jin was injured because of herself, so she felt a little guilty. She did not use any more strength and carefully wiped the wounds on Rong Jin’s hands. In addition, she also had to pick out some fine pieces of meat. Yun Xiao did not dare to let down her guard.
After cleaning Rong Jin’s hands, it was already half an hour later.
After Rong Jin’s hand was cleaned up, a pile of undergarment rags had already been piled up beside him, revealing Rong Jin’s hand at this moment. His fingers, which had distinct joints, were now clearly divided into flesh and bones. Looking at the capital, he felt even more sad.
But Yun Xiao quickly calmed down, “Is this hand not crippled? You should have some medicine on you, right?” As long as his hand wasn’t crippled, it would be fine. Only the tip of his finger was broken, and the rest were fine. There wasn’t much of a problem.
Even if he crippled a hand, it would still be much better than dying.
Seeing that Yun Xiao’s expression was too calm, Rong Jin heard Yun Xiao’s words again. Even when he looked at Yun Xiao in surprise, her thoughts were indeed very different from ordinary people’s. It was suited to his taste.
At first, he glanced at his hand. He didn’t care. However, very quickly, his gaze fell on Yun Xiao’s wrist. Yun Xiao hadn’t cleaned up the wound on her hand, and some blood dripped from the arrow wound on her wrist.
After half an hour, Rong Jin’s stamina had almost recovered. He took out a small jade bottle from his bosom and said, “This is a good medicine. I’ll bandage it for you first.”
Yun Xiao took the small jade bottle, but did not look at her own injuries. Instead, she sprinkled the medicine on Rong Jin’s hand. There definitely weren’t many medicines in such a small bottle, but there were many injuries on Rong Jin’s hand. He had to apply medicine to his entire hand. These medicines weren’t enough for Rong Jin to use.
Seeing that Yun Xiao wanted to give him all the medicine, Rong Jin hurriedly withdrew his hand. However, he was first grabbed by Yun Xiao’s wrist and forced to sprinkle all the medicine on it.
The medicine that Rong Jin could carry was naturally the best. Some of those wounds were bleeding again because of Yun Xiao’s previous wiping, but the blood stopped when he touched the medicine.
After putting all the medicine on Rong Jin, he heaved a sigh of relief. He tore off the hem of his undergarment again. Now that he had cleaned up Rong Jin’s wounds, Yun Xiao’s undergarment hem had almost been torn apart. She wrapped her hands together and tied a knot. After that, Yun Xiao let out a sigh of relief with exhaustion.
His entire body sat down limply, but his tone was unprecedentedly relaxed. “Finally dressed.”
Rong Jin had almost finished resting. He sat up and looked at Yun Xiao. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. “Thank you.”
After all, Rong Jin had been implicated by him in today’s matter. If he hadn’t insisted on going to Zhou Jingyan’s Third Prince’s Mansion to inspect it, it wouldn’t have happened today.
Yun Xiao’s expression became awkward for a moment and she whispered, “Are we leaving now? After so long, those people should be catching up soon. Do you know where this place is?”
Rong Jin looked at the sky and nodded. He looked around and said loudly, “This should be the Imperial Mausoleum Mountain in the north of the city.”
“Imperial Mausoleum Mountain?” Yun Xiao couldn’t help but cry out, He was really hit hard by this name, This Imperial Mausoleum Mountain was the last place where the Emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty returned to his soul. The corpses would be buried here. However, such a place was extremely secret. Very few people were able to enter. In addition, there were also gravekeeper and heavily guarded it. I heard that there were even strange escaping techniques outside, so it was even harder to find them. I didn’t expect that they would accidentally hit the Imperial Mausoleum Mountain.
Yun Xiao sized up her surroundings once again. The mountains surrounded her, and there was no end to it. There was only a waterfall ahead. However, Yun Xiao suddenly remembered that she had seen a palace there before the waterfall. It should be the Imperial Mausoleum, and also the place where the gravekeeper lived.
However, Yun Xiao looked over again. There were only trees on the ground beside the waterfall, so where did it look like a palace?
Yun Xiao opened her mouth wide in surprise. How could this be? Where did the palace go?
Seeing that Yun Xiao’s expression was wrong, Rong Jin stared blankly at a place. He frowned slightly and followed Yun Xiao’s gaze, but he didn’t see anything. “What are you looking at?”
Yun Xiao blinked her eyes and rubbed the corner of her eyes a few times. She still couldn’t see the shadow of a palace there. Could it really be like the mirage mentioned in the book? “I remember seeing a gorgeous palace beside the waterfall. However, now that I’m looking at it again, the palace is gone. I wonder if my eyes are blurred.”
“What are you talking about?” Rong Jin’s voice unconsciously rose. In the blink of an eye, he walked to Yun Xiao’s side. He grabbed Yun Xiao’s shoulder and said, “What did you just say?”
Yun Xiao did not know why Rong Jin’s reaction was so great, and her expression also turned ugly for a moment. She sized up Rong Jin’s face. Her face was as gentle as jade, with few fluctuations. This time, it was filled with anticipation, and her pair of dark eyes also flickered with a faint glimmer of hope.
She frowned. Curious, ‘”After we climbed up, I got up from you about half an hour ago. At that time, I saw a palace beside the waterfall. The palace was magnificently built. However, because I only took a glance at it, I didn’t have any impression of it. But now, the palace is gone.”
This was what made Yun Xiao curious. If it was a palace, how could it disappear in broad daylight? Could it still be haunted?
After Rong Jin heard Yun Xiao’s words, his expression became a little more pleasantly surprised. He said softly, “Yes, this is it!”
Yun Xiao did not understand Rong Jin’s words and blinked slightly, “What is this place?”
Rong Jin saw that Yun Xiao was staring at him all the time, so he didn’t hide anything from her. “I told you before that if you want to cure the poison, you have to use immortal herbs as medicine. In all my years in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, I only found out that immortal herbs are from the Mausoleum Mountain. I’ve been here a few times before, but every time I came back without success. I didn’t expect that you would actually see the palace this time.”
Yun Xiao also cried out in surprise, “Are you saying that the palace is real? The divine immortal grass is also here?” No wonder Rong Jin brought him here. He must have come to flee for his life, and also for the palace in the Mausoleum Mountain. He didn’t expect that he would accidentally knock him into the palace.
‘”Yes, the palace is real. However, formations have been used outside. It’s usually very difficult to find it. I spent a lot of effort before and got the news that the palace only appears four times a year, once a quarter. As for when it appears, there is no law at all, so it’s even more mysterious.” He used something he hadn’t found for ten years. Suddenly appearing on his face, Rong Jin’s words that he wasn’t excited were fake, and his eyebrows were filled with a trace of joy.
Seeing that Rong Jin was happy, Yun Xiao’s heart slowly became a little more happy. She suddenly stood up and smiled, “I still remember the location. Let’s hurry over!”
With the immortal herbs, if he could get some, it would be enough for Rong Jin to study the ingredients in the immortal herbs. At that time, the affectionate poison that tortured the two brothers in Rong Jin’s body would also be able to be cured. This was a great thing for Rong Jin.
However, thinking of this, Yun Xiao’s eyebrows also became a little lonely. After obtaining the Divine Immortal Grass, Rong Jin would leave, right?
Rong Jin’en said. Because he was too happy, he did not notice Yun Xiao’s strange behavior. He pulled Yun Xiao’s hand and carefully walked forward.
