Chapter 148: Cold Night
The night is long and cold. This is the north city, which is more than Yucheng and north. In such early spring, frost is slowly growing around the night, and the white frost sticks to Su Beifen's eyelashes, and as she bursts out her breath.
Gu Yandong seemed to have not fallen asleep. Su Beipin could feel his breathing sounds gasping irregularly, which means he was not asleep. Several times, Su Beipin froze but didn't know if Gu Yandong had fallen asleep and was afraid of waking up. When Gu Yandong was coincidentally, Gu Yandong would turn over and turn his back to Su Beipin.
It was at this time that Su Beipin dared to move his limbs. It was one day a few years later that Su Beipin realized that Gu Yandong only started to try to move after seeing Su Beipin's limbs stiffened, so that Su Beipin could turn over without disturbing him. The two of them cooperated carefully but no one said it. This was the tacit understanding between the two of them.
"Su Beipin, are you asleep?" Just as he was bored, Su Beipin heard Gu Yandong's words coming from beside him.
The silence broke, so the two of them looked at each other at the same time. When their eyes touched each other, they shifted their gaze at the same time. "Well, I can't sleep," Su Beipin replied.
It’s not that she can’t sleep but she dares not sleep. It’s too cold outside. Su Beipin is worried that it may be difficult to wake up according to her physical condition. It doesn’t matter if she dies here, but she can’t drag Gu Yandong down. Gu Yandong asked Ci to come here all the way and encountered such a thing. Everything is because of himself. If he dies, I’m so sorry for him.
"Gu Yandong" Su Beipin looked at the clouds floating in the sky and smiled calmly, "I don't know how many times it has been, it seems that you are always with me..." I don't know how many times it took, but on several nights like this, Gu Yandong was with him when he couldn't sleep and came out to ventilate. The two of them leaned against the well, and now looking at the sky like this, they said nothing.
Hearing Su Beipin say such words, Gu Yandong smiled. It was not long after, Gu Yandong suddenly said something, and the atmosphere changed his style. "Isn't it a jealous wolf? I have to remember to repay my kindness in the future."
"Tsk" Su Bei smiled and pressed his arm against Gu Yandong's arm. "I mean it, thank you."
If it weren't for Gu Yandong, Su Beipin might have really lost her life. If it weren't for Gu Yandong, she wouldn't know how many times had she died...
Turning back, looking at Gu Yandong with a gurgling and lovely smile, "Repay kindness... I may have to live my next life..."
"What are the silly girls saying?" Gu Yandong slapped Su Beipin's forehead with a palm. "I'm not dead yet and say such unlucky words." The injury in his chest may have been purulent. He didn't lift it up, not wanting Su Beipin to see it and make her worry about him.
Su Beipin stopped talking. She felt that the man beside her was a little cold and almost lost his temperature...
The surroundings were silent, and the water level was a little high. After a night, most of the stones piled up in the previous pile had already submerged into the water. The morning glow reflected the shimmering golden light on the water. The day passed, and Su Beipin stretched out his hand and took out the one from his waist with difficulty. This was the last pill. If no one came to him today, he might really be dead...
"Gu Yandong, isn't anyone here yet?" Su Beipin said, but he didn't get a response from Gu Yandong. When he turned around, Gu Yandong closed his eyes and leaned his head on the side to the stone wall, without moving. "Gu Yandong? Gu Yandong... Gu Yandong!" He dragged Gu Yandong's face and shook it gently. His cheeks were very cold. Su Beipin was shocked and guessed something in his heart. He suddenly raised his body to cheer up, and kept warming Gu Yandong's hands and face. Time and time, it was still useless.
After several attempts, Gu Yandong didn't react at all. Su Beipin finally gave up and hugged Gu Yan and cried loudly, "Yandong... wake up, wuwu... why are I still alive if you die...ah!" Just as she was crying loudly, Gu Yandong moaned "I" and slowly opened his eyes, "Su...bei...pin..."
"Gu Yandong! You are not dead! That's great..." Su Beipin surrounded Gu Yandong's arm with tears in his eyes and hugged him hard.
"If you do this, I'm going to die..." Gu Yandong's expression was so ferocious that he gently pushed Su Beipin away, "You... pressed my wound..." He was indeed unaware of it. Unfortunately, Su Beipin pressed her so hard that the wound hurt sharply. The unbearable huge pain pulled back Gu Yandong's gradually sleeping thoughts.
Su Beipin screamed, looked down and saw that Gu Yandong's chest was already red. It was only after Su Beipin hugged him, and she cried again, "I'm sorry..."
"It's okay..." Gu Yandong couldn't stand her crying the most. Once she started crying, she would never stop. She was not like this before. Why did it become so easy to cry in the imperial city? This cry basically cried out all the tears she should have cried in the first half of her life. At first, Gu Yandong kept persuading her, but later Gu Yandong gave up and let her go.
The two of them were eating wild fruits they had picked from the tree before, and suddenly they heard someone talking on it.
"You go down and see if the hole is blocked."
Su Beipin thought it was an illusion, and then heard another sound, then shook it up and raised his hands, "Hey! Help, there are people below! Help!!" He waved his arms to attract the attention of the people above.
"Hey, look! There are two people below! Put the ropes down!"
Fortunately, when the people above heard the sound, someone immediately put down a few ropes and took protective measures to slide slowly downwards.
"Who are you..." One of the villagers looked at the overflowing water around him, probably knowing what was going on, so he quickly waved his hand and asked the people above to start to answer, "Come on, I'll take you out."
(More than half an hour passed, Gu Yandong and Su Beipin were finally rescued)
"Where are you from? What are you doing here?"
"We are from the Imperial City." Su Beipin looked at Gu Yandong with a bad face, and the blood on his chest was getting more and more. "I encountered the pursuit of wolves on the road. Fortunately, you are here... How far is your place from the county town for medical treatment?"
"It will take at least half a day!" A village name holding an axe in his hand glanced at Gu Yandong's injury. "Whatever you do in the county town, there is a miracle doctor in our village. He can cure all his problems!"
Later I learned that the miracle doctor was what Shen Muchen said, the divine doctor in the Great Shang Palace.
