Chapter 630: Ten Days
I seemed to sleep and wake up. I didn’t know how long the time had passed, but I just felt dizzy in my mind.
After several times when she opened her eyes, Huang Yuchen looked around and could see Lu Zhihui's figure all the time. She seemed to have changed her clothes and returned to her charming appearance. Sometimes she would sit by the bed and smile at herself, and sometimes she was busy aside and didn't know what she was doing.
Every day, Huang Yuchen would be turned around and poured some food and medicine into it. His body was overdrawn and his mind was not very clear. In addition, the outside world was severely cold, and the injuries behind him were also very serious. Before entering the mountain, Huang Yuchen almost only supported himself with one breath. The vortex in his chest had shrunk a lot, becoming almost the size of a thumb. This proved that Huang Yuchen had indeed reached the end of his strength in the previous battle in Shacheng.
He was in a semi-coma state. He didn't know how long the time had passed, but he felt that it was very comfortable. The wound behind him no longer hurts since the medicine given by Lu Zhihui was applied. His mind was in a daze and he was half-dream and half-awake.
Huang Yuchen woke up from a drowsy one time and found that his mind was much clearer. The drowsy feeling also dissipated, but his whole body was still a little sore and weak. He tried hard to get up from the bed, but he couldn't do it. He was injured behind him, so he could only lie down all the time. His movements alarmed Lu Zhihui, who was sitting on a rattan chair, took a nap. Seeing Huang Yuchen awakening, Lu Zhihui immediately showed a look of surprise on his face, and he leaned over to Huang Yuchen and said softly: "Are you awake?"
Huang Yuchen didn't say anything. He looked at Lu Zhihui. At this moment, Lu Zhihui was wearing a long gown. It was no longer the gauze he had seen in Shacheng before. The large area of skin was also covered up. The injuries on her arm were not visible, but Lu Zhihui's fingers were obviously bandaged. Huang Yuchen immediately remembered the moment when Lu Zhihui blocked in front of him and caught Huang Yongning's long sword with his bare hands.
"Why did you save me..." Huang Yuchen spoke lightly, and his feelings for Lu Zhihui had changed very subtlely. If the matter in Shacheng before was biased towards his own choice, then after Lu Zhihui stood up and brought himself to block the sudden long sword, things would have changed new.
"Then why do you want to save me?" Lu Zhihui narrowed her eyes and smiled, smiling brightly and desolately.
"I'm not trying to save you." Huang Yuchen looked at Lu Zhihui quietly, and in her eyes, he read something that he had not said.
"Brother, you are good everywhere, you are very stubborn." Lu Zhihui smiled, moved the quilt on Huang Yuchen's body away, and observed the injuries behind Huang Yuchen.
The feeling of the quilt sliding on his skin was clearly visible. Huang Yuchen was immediately shocked and quickly reached out to touch himself. Sure enough, he was naked now and there was no idea where the clothes he was on his body were gone.
"Where is my clothes? Who took off me?" Huang Yuchen felt a little panicked. This was a feeling of no reason. Now there was no danger at all, but he felt surprisingly panicked.
"Who else, sister, I." Lu Zhihui narrowed her eyes, her cheeks were slightly red, and she looked at Huang Yuchen and said, "You have been seen by my sister, and you will be your sister in the future."
When Huang Yuchen heard this, he subconsciously shrank his body. This action touched the wound behind him. A severe pain came, causing him to grin immediately.
"Oh, don't move!" Lu Zhihui pressed Huang Yuchen's body and hurriedly said, "I'm teasing you. How can I take off my clothes if my hand is injured? It was the two people who came with you to help you."
When Huang Yuchen heard Lu Zhihui say this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said to himself: It's okay, but he was still a little disappointed in a vague way.
"Where is this?" Huang Yuchen hurriedly changed the subject and looked around. There was a large bedroom with a complete set of facilities in the house, including all tables, beds, cabinets and stools. He still remembered that he was holding Lu Zhihui into the mountain, which should be in an extremely desolate place.
"In my house." Lu Zhihui smiled at Huang Yuchen and said, "Sister used to live here, but that happened a long time ago. Later, when I went to Shacheng, I never used it here again. But don't worry, this place is absolutely safe. Now in this world, no one can find this place except my sister. Oh no, there are three of you." Lu Zhihui said while checking the wound on Huang Yuchen's back. She picked up a small box from the small table beside her. Although it was not convenient to wrap her fingers, she still gently applied medicine to Huang Yuchen. The medicine was very strange. When it was applied to the wound, the pain immediately disappeared.
"What medicine is this? How can it have such an effect?" Huang Yuchen was also surprised. Although he could not see the wound behind him, he could also feel how big the wound was from the pain, and what medicine could have such an immediate effect.
"This is a secret." Lu Zhihui said while applying medicine to Huang Yuchen: "This is passed down from my sister's family. If you want to know, you have to marry me. Do you want to hear it?"
When Huang Yuchen heard this, he was immediately silent. He was most afraid of Lu Zhihui asking this question, afraid that she would ask if she liked her, and also afraid of asking such topics. Huang Yuchen didn't know what he felt about Lu Zhihui. This feeling was completely different from his feelings about Lin Yiyi. Do you like it? Huang Yuchen was not sure, but he could be sure that after the previous incident in Shacheng, Lu Zhihui was already considered his comrade-in-arms, beyond the scope of ordinary friendship.
Looking at Lu Zhihui, Huang Yuchen felt that he couldn't understand this woman, or that this woman had some magical powers. First of all, she was the lord of Shacheng City, and Shacheng was a place beyond the law. One of the people in Shacheng was counted as one, and they were all illegal people who escaped from Qi Tian. These people must have certain abilities to reach Shacheng through the vast uninhabited area. Lu Zhihui led them to convince them and even died for Shacheng, which was enough to make people look at them.
Then, Huang Yuchen and Lu Zhihui fought side by side. The violent and bloodthirsty that Lu Zhihui showed was completely different from what she saw now. The contrast was too great that Huang Yuchen couldn't help but wonder if Lu Zhihui was a madman.
Finally, the place where they are now, from Lu Zhihui's words, we can know that this must be the place she secretly prepared. She said that it was her home before, and it was very likely that she could have such a mansion in such a desolate jungle. But it is not something that ordinary people can do.
Seeing Huang Yuchen's embarrassment, Lu Zhihui laughed. After applying medicine to Huang Yuchen, he gently touched Huang Yuchen's spine. With this, a numb feeling immediately spread throughout Huang Yuchen's body, making him feel unspeakable. Then, Lu Zhihui covered Huang Yuchen with the quilt and sat back on his rattan chair.
Huang Yuchen glanced at Lu Zhihui and wanted to ask her to press her again, but she couldn't speak, so she could only smile awkwardly and didn't say anything.
"Tell me, it has been ten days since we came in." Lu Zhihui looked at Huang Yuchen with a faint smile on her face: "In order to prevent you from doing stupid things, I added some sleepy medicines to the medicine you take every day to let you rest for a few days. Today you woke up because I didn't give you medicine. You have a good health foundation. It's only been ten days, and most of the wounds have healed."
"Ten days?" Huang Yuchen was stunned when he heard this and hurriedly said, "Shacheng..."
"The sand city is gone." A strange look was seen in Lu Zhihui's eyes, and she said: "On the third day, I had seen it from afar that the entire sand city was razed to the ground. All the things inside were gone, including the residents of the sand city, all the houses and even the city walls. The only thing left there was a piece of ruins and many corpses that had been frozen into ice."
Huang Yuchen frowned when he heard this. Needless to say, he knew who did it, Huang Yongning.
He had been sleeping for ten days, half asleep and half awake. He saw more than once the situation. His second brother Huang Yongning swung his sword at him without any hesitation. He had to kill himself. If he had not used white energy to trigger the change of time flow rate later, he would have probably died on the spot.
Huang Yongning brought troops. Huang Yuchen didn't know how many people he brought, but in terms of combat effectiveness alone, it was extremely strong, no less than the elite cavalry of the Eastern Palace. They left and completely razed the sand city to the ground. From here, there was no enemy in front, and it was Qi Tian's hinterland. What was Huang Yongning leading troops in this direction for almost no need to think about it.
"Do you recognize the knights that appeared later, and the knight leader? I heard that you called him second brother, why did he kill you?" Lu Zhihui saw that Huang Yuchen didn't say anything, so she asked her own question directly.
Huang Yuchen shook his head gently and said, "The leader does look the same as my second brother, but he is still not my second brother now, and I can't be sure."
Huang Yuchen's answer made Lu Zhihui stunned. She couldn't understand the meaning of Huang Yuchen's words. What does it mean to look like? Yes, no, but he heard what Huang Yuchen said, he seemed to have confirmed the identity of this person, but he couldn't believe it yet.
"So, are you really the fourth son of the Dongwang Mansion?" Lu Zhihui looked at Huang Yuchen with interest and said, "Isn't you really lie to my sister?"
"I don't lie." Huang Yuchen looked at Lu Zhihui and said, "From the beginning, what I told you is the truth."
"If you want to go deep into the jungle, there is something important, which is the truth?" Lu Zhihui blinked and asked at Huang Yuchen.
"Of course it's the truth. I came here just to enter this wild jungle, but I didn't expect to encounter something about the sand city." Huang Yuchen replied truthfully.
Lu Zhihui looked at Huang Yuchen, thought for a moment, and then said, "Entering the jungle is not as simple as you think. You know, in such a lush jungle, the smallest tree is probably hundreds of years old. Do you know what is inside?"
