Skiing down the mountain is fast.

About an hour later, Zhou Xiaoxiao came to a small town called Lijiatun at the foot of the mountain. The town was on the south side of the mountain, and it was more than twenty miles away from Qiongcheng on the Shandong side.Zhou Xiaoxiao planned to stay in the town for one night, and then set off after buying a transport animal the next day.

Today the town coincides with the market. Although it is almost scattered, the muddy roads that have been busy for a day gather together villagers from the surrounding villages to go to the market.

On both sides of the bumpy stone road, various simple stalls are busily crowded, selling food, shoes and socks.

There are many people walking on the road with grass signs, some holding two geese, some carrying a basket of eggs, and some carrying a load of firewood.

Because of relying on the mountain, there are many hunters who trade all kinds of mountain products.

Zhou Xiaoxiao is now wearing a double-eared dog-skin hat, a homespun cotton jacket, a tiger-skin waistcoat, and a pair of felt bumps on his feet. Two obvious plateau red patches on his dirty face, a standard mountain hunter dress .Being in the crowd is not obvious at all.

Zhou Xiaoxiao observed carefully for a circle, but did not see any conspicuous search personnel.Just let go.Perhaps this place and the Lin Mansion Courtyard are in two directions of Dashan, but no one has searched here yet.

The lively and novel ancient bazaar does not excite her.

She only felt uncomfortable when her heart rose up and down, and walked in the crowd with annoyance, and saw a medical clinic with a sign that read: Buy all kinds of herbs.

Zhou Xiaoxiao knocked on the wooden counter for a long time. The guy in the store was a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy. The boy smiled at her and showed his big white teeth.

"Does the guest officer seek medical treatment or take medicine?"

Zhou Xiaoxiao put the package upwards: "I have good tiger bone antler here. Does the store accept it?"

The boy turned his head and rushed to the back room and shouted, "Daddy, the herb seller is here."

"If you accept it, what kind of wild products your brother has and will take it out first." A gray-bearded old Chinese doctor turned out from the back room.

The price offered by the old man is very fair.In addition, Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't care about these things because of Lin Fushun's belongings.I simply took off the mountain products.

"If my little brother still has some good skin, he can even give it to the old man. It's freezing in this cold day. The old man wants to make a skin jacket for this baby." The old doctor pointed to Zhou Xiaoxiao's tiger-skin vest and said.

Zhou Xiaoxiao thought of the pile of fur in the cave, and immediately thought of Yu Xingzhi lying in the fur pile.I don't know how he is now, whether he can survive it.

I always feel that I have done something serious, and my heart is empty and uncomfortable.When leaving the hospital, Zhou Xiaoxiao carried a stack of medicines, knife wound medicine, scald medicine, anti-inflammatory herbs, frostbite cream, and a pair of bone splints.

What on earth did I want to buy these, Zhou Xiaoxiaohun thought.

She found the inn in the town and moved in.

He filled his stomach without knowing the taste, and fell on the warm big kang in the inn, but couldn't sleep.

Finally fell asleep in a daze.

For a while, I dreamed that Yu Xingzhi was caught by Lin Bingren and chopped bloody into several pieces. For a while, I dreamed that Yu Xingzhi was chewed up by a wild animal in his death hole.

Woke up sweating profusely and saw the sky bright.

She jumped up from the kang, asked the innkeeper to rent a sled and eight sled dogs, bought another roll of bedding, rolled the bedding and carried herbs and jumped onto the sled.

The eight sled dogs ran wildly together, returned along the way they came, and ran towards the cave.

Back on the hillside, Zhou Xiaoxiao felt brighter and brighter looking at the surrounding three cedar trees as when she left.

She peeled away the snow and shelter at the entrance of the cave, drove the sled dogs into the cave, and dragged the sled into the cave, just about to call people.

The scene in the cave made her feel cold.

The bonfire was extinguished, the stone room was dim, and the faint light from the cave entrance revealed a person lying motionless on the edge of the fur pile.

The man's pale back was bare, and one arm stretched forward feebly, recklessly.

Zhou Xiaoxiao snorted in her heart, ran forward quickly, and carefully turned the person over. Yu Xingzhi's face was like golden paper, his teeth clenched, and he touched his forehead, which was terribly hot.

Zhou Xiaoxiao finally felt guilty in her heart.

She blamed herself, why did you become so cruel, people didn't abandon you in the ice and snow, but you left such a severely wounded person in the cave to fend for themselves.

Act quickly while condemning yourself.

The bonfire was rekindled, the bedding that was brought was covered, the herbal medicines taken internally were added to the crock and boiled, the wound medicine for external use was adjusted, and the wounds of the patient were treated with medicine and dressing again.Also cover the hole and place sled dogs.It just happened to be busy.Suddenly I heard a low moan|groan.

Zhou Xiaoxiao hurriedly came to Yu Xingzhi's side.

"you're awake?"

A touch of his forehead still burned badly.

"Fuck... bastard." He began to dream intermittently, "Stop... stop... let go of me."

The fever was so bad that everyone was talking nonsense, and Zhou Xiaoxiao was anxious.

"It's me. I'm back." She could only comfort him softly.

After frying the anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving herbs, Zhou Xiaoxiao helped the weak patient and poured it down carefully.

After feeding the medicine, he just turned around.

A vague voice came from behind.

"Don't... don't go, don't leave me."

Zhou Xiaoxiao felt a little bit sour.

She sat next to Yu Xingzhi, held his hand, and said softly: "I'm not leaving, don't be afraid."

However, the man burned in a daze, could not hear the external sound, and only made a few low, unclear guttural sounds from time to time.

Zhou Xiaoxiao thought in her heart, if you begged me like this when I left, I might not have the heart to leave.

But you want to say goodbye gently, so I can't say anything to regret.What's the point of having a fever so bad now?

She felt guilty in her heart, so she took care of Yu Xingzhi with extra care, using cold water to wipe his neck, armpits, limbs, hands and feet.The icekerchief on his forehead changed one after another.Until the heat finally dropped, he slowly woke up.

Yu Xingzhi opened his eyes and saw Zhou Xiaoxiao. For a moment, his eyes were like stars shaking. There seemed to be a thousand words but could not speak. In the end, only a weak smile appeared. Only this shallow smile made Zhou Xiaoxiao feel that he was frozen in his heart. , With the click of this laugh, a crack was opened, and a few green buds emerged from the crack.

Yu Xingzhi's injuries repeated.The fever subsided again, and the fever subsided again and again.

People are awake and unconscious from time to time.When he was in a coma, he could always feel a warm body holding his hand beside him, encouraging him in a soft voice.

When you are awake, you can always see a busy figure feeding and changing dressings, defecation and help, and don't shy away.A pair of round and gleaming eyes always showed an open and hearty smile when they saw him looking over.

She took care of me so unavoidably.

If... I am lucky enough to take this life back, I must marry this girl, so as not to damage her reputation.He thought dazedly.

When he woke up slowly after another high fever subsided.

When Yu Xingzhi saw Zhou Xiaoxiao packing up the things in the cave, the girl swiftly piled all the fur on the sled, and quickly put the reins on the sled dogs.

She was leaving again. Realizing this, Yu Xingzhi felt that his heart sank into darkness. He wanted to keep the cuckoo girl and ask her to stay with him. Don’t let yourself be alone here. In the cold cave, he suffered from illness and pain until he died.

However, good education made him unable to speak. He was unwilling and unable to drag a girl who had never lived before into a dangerous situation.So he quickly forced himself to control his emotions.Get ready to say goodbye peacefully again.

Zhou Xiaoxiao set the sled dog well, and when he turned his head, he saw a sad expression on Yu Xingzhi’s handsome face, but that expression quickly disappeared. He changed into a calm face and even forced himself to pose. A little smile.Zhou Xiaoxiao came over, rolled up Yu Xingzhi and the quilt with the people, and placed them on the sled.

Yu Xingzhi was taken aback: "You... are you going to take me with you?"

"I'll take you to the doctor." Zhou Xiaoxiao put her dog-skin hat on his head and fastened the belt, "You can't die."

Yu Xingzhi felt that his heart was rolling in the warm spring. At the same time, he knew that such an action was too dangerous and would affect the girl, so he should quickly refuse.

However, when Zhou Xiaoxiao's round eyes were close to his face, he smiled at him, and stretched out his hand to compress the fur on his body, he felt a nostalgic warmth, out of greed for this warmth, Out of the desire for life, he finally did not say the rejection.

When the sled started and went all the way down the mountain, Yu Xing knew that only half of his heart was immersed in the happiness of being rescued, and half was immersed in the deep sense of condemnation of his selfishness. It was indescribable.

The two arrived at Lijiatun in the evening.Zhou Xiaoxiao went straight to the previous hospital. The young man was stepping down the door. Seeing them, he quickly put down his work and helped carry the patient into the inner courtyard.The old doctor checked Yu Xingzhi's injury, stroking his beard and showing a solemn expression.Zhou Xiaoxiao quietly held backhand a wrist relief knife pinned to her back. If the situation was not right, she would not hesitate to use force to force him to treat Yu Xingzhi.

"Boy, go and drop the door. The candles in the front yard are all off, and the door is closed." The doctor said to the boy, "Go, go. Boil some hot water for later."

He said to Zhou Xiaoxiao again: "I want my little brother to help the old man."

Zhou Xiaoxiao slowly let go of the hand holding the knife behind his back, and said, "Thank you, Mr.." While remaining vigilant, he struck him forward.

Yu Xingzhi has a tough personality. Even though the healing process was painful, he didn't say a word, just gritted his teeth and turned away.

If it weren't for the clenched fist's hand trembling, it would even make people think that the hideous wound treated by the doctor was not on his body.It wasn't until the moment the doctor connected his leg bones that he finally couldn't help but groan, his head was sweaty, and his face was white as a coma.

Even the doctors who saw too many wounds couldn't help sighing: "Oh, this Lin Mansion is so overbearing. It humiliates people like this."

Zhou Xiaoxiao, who was wiping Yu Xingzhi's sweat, was shocked when she heard this, and turned her head to look at him warily.
