PNB Chapter 110 High Fever Whisper
Chapter 110 High Fever Whisper
Despite the quarrel, they still chose to go back and talk about it later.
But along the way, no one spoke, the atmosphere was extremely weird and freezing cold.
When they returned to the place where everyone was resting, Rong Su had a cold face and silently found the medicine bottle and gave it to Gu Yuer and Shitou.
"These medicines are good for treating injuries. Take them to the seriously injured people. Yulan, divide up their clothes."
After saying this, Rong Su went to tinker with her things alone, regardless of whether they responded or not.
Everyone could clearly feel that Rong Su seemed angry, and those who didn't know the inside story were confused.
Gu Yuer rolled her eyes and went to find Yulan: "Sister Yulan, go get some warm clothes. Why is Sister Rong angry? Did something happen?"
Yulan took out the medicine bottle and small porcelain bowl while answering Gu Yuer, "On our way back, we happened to run into Master Shen and learned that he was secretly protecting us. Then we encountered a dangerous situation. An earth dragon was about to attack Master Shen. Doctor Rong saw it and helped Master Shen fight it off, but Master Shen suddenly got angry at Doctor Rong, and Doctor Rong seemed angry too."
After hearing what happened, Gu Yuer glanced at Rong Su who was facing everyone sideways with a very ugly expression. She turned her head to look at Shen Peiqing and saw that Shen Peiqing's expression was not much better.
Now it is obvious that the two are having a quarrel and are angry with each other. Realizing this, Gu Yuer curled the corners of her mouth. Isn't now a good time for her brother to take action?
Shi Tou saw his master coming back, but he also noticed the dark complexion on his face, which looked very bad.
He quickly walked past Gu Yun and asked quietly, "Master, what happened on the mudflat?"
When this was mentioned, Shen Peiqing's expression became worse and darker, and he kept silent with a stern face.
Seeing that Shen Peiqing didn't say anything, Shi Tou was actually a little curious. He looked towards Rong Su and saw that Rong Su was alone. Then he looked back at Shen Peiqing and clearly felt that both of them seemed angry.
Shitou understood his master's character quite well. His master rarely got really angry. Usually when he was angry he would be like a taciturn person and would not say anything. Just like now, he was really angry.
But as a subordinate, he would not ask any further questions. Shi Tou could only wonder in his heart, but he still went to apply medicine to Shen Peiqing's wound first.
Shen Peiqing had a cold face, lowered his head and stared blankly without focusing on anything. The anger in his heart was actually subsiding a little bit.
To be honest, he was so inexplicably angry, which was completely beyond his expectation. He thought he had dealt with his feelings for Rong Su very well, but for some reason, when he saw her saving him regardless of danger, the emotions hidden in his heart instantly jumped up.
He couldn't hold it back, and even thought about how self-blame, guilt and sadness he would feel if she got hurt because of him.
This feeling cannot be expressed in words and cannot be erased.
His gaze quietly and vaguely swept towards Rong Su, then quickly retracted.
What was he angry about? He lowered his eyes, his eyes were confused for a moment, and then gradually became clear. He was angry that Rongsu was obviously a smart person who hated trouble and cherished life. She disliked him so much, why would she save him at the risk of her own life.
On one hand, she was struggling with the thought that she was doing it for the sake of a deal, but on the other hand, she was struggling with that tiny glimmer of hope that she might have a different opinion of herself.
Various thoughts were tangled in his mind like a ball of dough until the anger in his heart subsided. However, his head seemed to be a little dizzy because of thinking too much, and then in the dim vision, he saw the surrounding scenes becoming distorted and blurred.
While applying medicine to Shen Peiqing's wound, Shitou suddenly noticed that something was wrong with Shen Peiqing. He saw that he kept shaking his head and asked with concern, "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing Shitou's question, Shen Peiqing pretended to be calm and said calmly, "It's okay. You go and rest. I'll be alone for a while."
Since the master had spoken, Shitou didn't say much. After giving Shen Peiqing the final bandage, he went to the side to rest.
It was late at night and everyone was gathered around the fire in the middle, wrapped in the clothes they had brought back to keep warm, hoping to spend this uneasy night in peace.
Rong Su slowly opened her eyes. She couldn't sleep. Naturally, she was still angry, so she couldn't fall asleep no matter what. She simply gave up and got up to continue fiddling with the herbs she had brought back, grinding them to make poison.
Perhaps it can be used as a backup to deal with the earth dragon when we continue to cross the mudflats tomorrow.
Only when I focus on making medicine will I feel calmer, my mind will not be wandering, and I will not be troubled by certain emotions.
I was working seriously when I felt someone approaching, so I stopped and looked over. Unexpectedly, it was Gu Yun.
"Why aren't you resting yet?" Gu Yun spoke before her, asking with concern, and then he sat down next to her.
She turned her gaze back to the herbal jar, then continued her movements, speaking slowly: "You are injured, shouldn't you rest well?"
Hearing that Rong Su had no intention of answering him, Gu Yun was silent for a while. Seeing that she was constantly fiddling with the medicine jar in her hand, he spoke again: "I heard from Yu'er that you and Brother Shen had a quarrel. Although I don't know why, and I don't know what unpleasant things happened between you on the beach, I hope you can come to me to talk. I don't want to see you not resting because of unhappiness. It's not good for your health."
A cold wind blew through the shade of the trees, stirring up many dead branches and leaves on the trees, making a rustling sound.
Rong Su didn't speak for a long time before she stopped what she was doing, looked up at Gu Yun, and saw that he was really worried about her. She curled up her hand holding the jar and spoke slowly.
"Gu Yun, I appreciate your kindness. But instead of worrying about someone like me who is not injured, you should take care of yourself. Your injuries are quite serious. Go and rest. I'm fine. I just can't sleep."
She still didn't want to tell him. Gu Yun felt a faint sadness and loss in his heart. There was only one thought in his mind, that is, she still didn't trust him.
He was silent for a long time, still firm in his previous thoughts. It doesn't matter, take it slowly, she will open her heart to him one day.
"Okay. Then go and rest when you're done. It's already very late."
"Ok, I know."
Gu Yun looked at Rong Su again, and seeing that she continued to fiddle with the medicine jar, he stood up silently and returned to his seat. Through the dim firelight, his eyes were always focused on Rong Su over there. He watched her fiddling with things and fell asleep in a daze.
After Rong Su prepared the two bottles of poison, she put them down. She seemed to feel much better, raised her hands and stretched.
He clenched his fists again and gently tapped his back and lower back with his hands to relieve the fatigue.
She planned to go back and rest, but when she stood up, she heard some short and painful groans in the quiet night.
I frowned and turned around to see who was feeling unwell.
He glanced at everyone and finally fixed his gaze on Shen Peiqing.
Shen Peiqing was leaning against the shade of a tree, his arms folded across his chest, his eyes closed, but his face showed a very uncomfortable expression. Under the flickering firelight, his face seemed to be slightly red.
Seeing this, she thought about it and walked over to him, squatted in front of him, stretched out her hand, and touched his face with the back of her hand.
So hot!
Feeling the back of her hand burning as if it were being roasted by fire, Rong Su realized that Shen Peiqing had a high fever.
In order not to wake everyone up, she chose to reach out and grab Shen Peiqing's shoulders, shook him gently a few times, and called him softly.
"Hey, Shen Peiqing. Wake up, Shen Peiqing, wake up."
But no matter how I called him, he showed no signs of waking up. He still had his eyes closed, his face full of pain.
Seeing this, Rong Su turned around and rummaged through her luggage. After searching for a long time, she couldn't find any medicine to reduce the fever.
In my ears was Shen Peiqing's continuous rapid and uncomfortable muffled voice.
Feeling a little anxious, Rong Su thought for a while and decided to get him some cold water to reduce his fever first.
The only place with water here is on the mudflat. Without caring about anything else, I hurried to the mudflat.
I hurried to the mudflats, where it was quiet and deserted. Occasionally I could hear a few low roars, which made me tremble.
Rong Su forced herself to calm down, then quickly took out her handkerchief, went to the shallows and wet it.
As she was wetting her handkerchief, she suddenly saw a black shadow floating on the water not far away.
She immediately thought of Tulong, and her heart beat faster with fear. She quickly retracted her hand, but when she thought of Shen Peiqing who had a high fever, she still mustered up the courage to continue wetting her handkerchief.
She said to herself, don't be afraid, the earth dragon is afraid of being hit on the nose, if it dares to come close, she will just hit it on the nose.
Fortunately, Tulong had not moved, perhaps he had fallen asleep. Rong Su breathed a sigh of relief, quickly took back the wet handkerchief, then got up and hurried back.
He placed the cold handkerchief on Shen Peiqing's forehead and wrists.
When the handkerchief became warmer, she continued to run back and forth between the mudflats and here several times.
She didn't relax until she touched Shen Peiqing's forehead with the back of her hand and found that it was not so hot anymore.
If an injured person is infected with a cold and a high fever, he will really die.
She thought this way just to give herself an excuse to help Shen Peiqing. As for what she really thought in her heart, Rong Su herself had no idea.
Suddenly, Shen Peiqing mumbled in a daze: "Water... I want to... drink water..."
After hearing his words, Rong Su came back to her senses, turned around to get the water bag, opened the cork and handed it to him, but he was still in a coma and it was impossible for him to drink the water by himself. When she was frustrated, she heard him murmur in a hoarse voice asking for water.
Helplessly, Rong Su could only reach out to support his head, hold the water bag, and put it to his mouth.
Feeling indignant and resentful in her heart, Shen Peiqing, this is the first time I have been so nice to someone. If you are still so ungrateful in the future, I will make you live a life worse than death!
Rong Su felt better after she resented Shen Peiqing in her heart. Seeing that he knew how to swallow the water when he touched it, she felt relieved.
He drank the water and didn't ask for more. Rong Su put down the water bag, supported him, and let him continue to lean against the shade of the tree.
After taking his pulse again and confirming that nothing was wrong, Rong Su planned to get up and go back to rest. She was tired after so many things happened in one night and was yawning now.
Just as she was about to get up, someone grabbed her hand. She was startled and turned around to look, but Shen Peiqing was still in a coma and had not woken up.
Seeing that he didn't wake up, Rong Su's heart, which had been hanging in the air, was slightly relieved. She patted her chest with her hand, which scared her and made her think that this guy had woken up.
If he saw that she was helping him, he would definitely laugh at her for this. They were clearly arguing before, and now she came to help him. Wouldn't that be very embarrassing? She didn't want to be discovered by this guy!
Thinking of this, she reached out and grabbed Shen Peiqing's hand, trying to take her hand out of his.
Just as she moved, she heard Shen Peiqing mumbling a few words in a daze.
The voice was a little soft and hard to hear clearly. Rong Su thought about it and moved closer.
"Crazy girl..."
Just hearing these three words, Rong Su immediately became furious. She stared at his handsome face which was now weak and cold. She really wanted to put a palm print on his face!
The flames were about to burn her heart, and she was eager to take action right now, and her hands were itching to move.
But the next second, his next words extinguished the fire in her heart.
"...you must live...live well..."
After hearing these words, Rong Su lowered her eyes and stared at Shen Peiqing for a long time. She felt complicated and uncomfortable in her heart, and she didn't know what to feel.
Finally, she returned to her seat to rest. Although she was very tired, she couldn't fall asleep and tossed and turned.
Early the next morning.
Shen Peiqing felt very relaxed all over, and was confused. He felt uncomfortable all over last night, and even felt as if he was being burned by fire.
He twisted his shoulders a few times, feeling a lot lighter. Puzzled, he asked Shitou, "Was it you last night?"
Shitou was suddenly asked, looking confused: "Ah? Master, what?"
Seeing Shi Tou's expression, Shen Peiqing became even more confused. He looked around at the other people and finally stopped at Gu Yun and Rong Su.
His eyes happened to meet Rong Su's, but Rong Su looked at him coldly and looked away.
Seeing this, Shen Peiqing ruled out the possibility that Rong Su helped him reduce the fever, and turned his attention to Gu Yun, believing that it was Gu Yun who helped him reduce the fever.
Then he walked over and said to Gu Yun, "Thank you, Brother Gu."
Gu Yun was packing his things when he suddenly heard Shen Peiqing say thank you for no apparent reason. He was stunned for a moment, and then he thought that Shen Peiqing knew that he had gone to Rong Su last night to help him ease the relationship between them.
After thinking for a moment, Gu Yun smiled calmly and said, "It's just a small matter between friends."
Hearing Gu Yun say this, Shen Peiqing was sure it was Gu Yun. He nodded solemnly and said thank you again.
The moment he turned around, a picture suddenly flashed through his mind. It seemed that he had grabbed that person's hand last night.
This realization froze him, leaving him feeling embarrassed and annoyed. What was going on? Had he mistaken Gu Yun for Rong Su? Was he going crazy from the high fever?
While someone was still worrying, Rong Su had already started thinking about how to cross the remaining half of the mudflat.
