Chapter 1653: Rescue from an Old Friend
Chapter 1653: Rescue from an Old Friend
Yan Ruyu looked at the dark night and felt unhappy.
It was so late that Huo Changhe couldn't even get a good night's sleep and rushed to Shencheng overnight.
The life or death of Doctor Cao in Shencheng is also uncertain, and it is certain that he is in danger.
Thinking of the little old man who was obsessed with medicine, Yan Ruyu secretly hoped that he could turn the danger into safety.
Yan Ruyu turned around and went back to the courtyard, with Yinding following behind her.
"Princess, are Quan Dao and Feng Shao in danger?"
Yan Ruyu couldn't answer either.
"The prince has already gone, so I don't think that will happen. Quan Dao is steady and Feng Shao is smart, so they should be able to return safely."
Yinding nodded, and the abbot came over in a hurry: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Yinding grabbed him and said, "Abbot, can you chant sutras and pray for them?"
Abbot: “…” I don’t know how to chant sutras, and I’m not a turtle in the wishing well.
Yan Ruyu said, "Yinding, you should go and rest first and get your spirits back. You can't slack off on things here. I'll discuss this with the abbot."
"Yes."
Yinding and the others went down, and the abbot came up and asked, "Did something really happen?"
"It should be, but we don't know the specific situation yet," Yan Ruyu said solemnly, "The prince has already gone to Shencheng."
"It's the middle of the night..." The abbot paused again. If it wasn't an emergency, Huo Changhe would not leave now.
"A carrier pigeon flew back. There was no letter, only a bloody strip of cloth torn from Feng Xiao's clothes."
Yan Ruyu briefly finished her story: "The current situation is unclear and her whereabouts are unknown."
The abbot was at a loss for ideas: "It's a pity that the distance is too far, otherwise, I could help locate it."
Yan Ruyu was silent for a moment: "Wait for the prince's news first, and then decide based on the situation."
The abbot knew that she was in a bad mood, so he comforted her, "Don't worry, they are all good people, and they will definitely be blessed. Otherwise, I will go there and help the prince find someone."
Yan Ruyu shook her head: "Not yet, the road construction here is also very important, and the prince also has plans, let's talk about it later."
"How is Li Wanglin's space?"
"There has been some progress, but it's not a big deal. We can't rush this matter. We need to take our time."
Yan Ruyu nodded slowly: "I'm sorry to trouble you with something."
"Look at what you said. There is no need to talk about this between us. You should have a good rest and don't worry too much. When you are here, the people in the palace will have a backbone."
……
Doctor Cao was gasping for breath, still in shock. He looked warily at the person who pulled him in. He was a servant with a very unfamiliar face.
Doctor Cao took two steps back and looked around: "Who are you? Why did you drag me here?"
Just as the boy was about to speak, a woman came quickly down the corridor.
"Doctor Cao."
Doctor Cao looked intently and felt that the woman looked familiar, but the light was too dim and he couldn't see clearly.
Only when he got closer did he recognize her: "Miss Cao."
"Doctor Cao," Miss Cao nodded and looked him up and down, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay," Doctor Cao was surprised and happy, "Why are you here? This is..."
"This is my home," Miss Cao said, "My husband's family is in Shanghai. Have you forgotten? I came back a few days ago."
Doctor Cao then remembered that, yes, Governor Cao's daughter was married to Shencheng. She wanted to visit her parents' home because she was pregnant, so she went back. Later, she gave birth prematurely and had been raised in the governor's mansion.
I just returned to Shanghai not long ago.
Doctor Cao felt relieved: "Thank you Miss Cao for saving my life, but I have several companions, they..."
Miss Cao sighed softly: "I know everything. Please come with me first and settle down. I will send someone to find the others."
"Also, I have to send a message to Xiao Chiye. He is the most powerful person in Shencheng."
"OK, no problem."
Doctor Cao's tense nerves relaxed, and he felt aches all over his body. His legs and feet felt weak and he couldn't use any strength.
The servant helped him to another small courtyard.
"This place is secluded, no one will know about it, just stay here and I will let you know if there is any news."
Doctor Cao bowed and said, "Thank you very much. I want to read a few more letters. I wonder..."
"Okay," Miss Cao said firmly, "Just write it and I'll send someone to deliver it."
Doctor Cao said no more and went into the house to write a letter.
First give it to Xiao Chiye, then to the owner of Qian's pharmacy.
I have to go back to the inn to see if they have escaped safely.
It was late at night and there was almost no one on the streets. Due to its special geographical location, Shanghai also had a curfew.
It was impossible to go out on the street at this time, so Miss Cao could only wait until dawn and send the letter immediately.
Doctor Cao couldn't lie down or sleep at all, as he was worried about the safety of others.
……
Feng Shao was awakened by the cold wind. He struggled to get up, enduring the pain in his chest. He didn't know if his ribs were broken or he had internal injuries.
But I can't care about much at this moment. I have to check on the situation of others first.
Looking closely, Quan Dao was lying on the ground with blood underneath him.
Feng Shaohun was about to fly away. He didn't care about the pain in his body and ran over quickly, calling Quan Dao in a low voice as he ran, but Quan Dao didn't respond at all.
Coming closer, Feng Shao used trembling fingers to feel Quan Dao's breath and the pulse on the side of his neck.
The scenes before his eyes were all of Quan Dao's previous appearance. He was a little silly, a little straightforward, and didn't talk much. When the few of them got together, he often didn't say much, or he would say something that hurt him.
Feng Shao likes him quite a bit and thinks he is a man of few words but wise.
Quan Dao also has a younger sister who also suffered a brain injury, but is almost recovered now. She has been helping out in the dim sum shop and is now the main force. She is very clever and deft, and many people’s new looks were designed by her.
Quan Dao is most proud of this sister. He always says that he will find a good family for her in the future.
Feng Shao muttered in a low voice: "Quan Dao, Quan Dao, don't scare me. You haven't found a partner for your sister yet, and you haven't heard others call you brother-in-law yet."
His fingers trembled as he pressed down, and Feng Xiao's tense heart relaxed and then tightened again.
Great, there is still a pulse, but it is also very weak.
Feng Shao carefully checked Quan Dao's back and legs, and found no injuries, then turned him over.
It didn't matter that he turned over, he found a bloody wound on his front body, with the skin and flesh rolled up, running diagonally from the chest to the lower abdomen, deep enough to see the bone.
Feng Shao almost shed tears.
"brother……"
Looking around, there was no one else, so he simply bandaged Quan Dao with clothes and helped him to find a clinic.
……
Yan Ruyu took a short nap and suddenly woke up with her heart beating fast and she couldn't calm down.
I've never felt this way in so long.
I couldn't fall asleep anyway, so I just went into the space.
I was busy before and didn't come in to take a look, but now I realize that there is a light white gas surging in the space, like fog, but thinner than fog, and also like flowing clouds, floating and changing gently.
what is this?
Yan Ruyu was puzzled and raised her hand to touch it, and the ball floated away again.
She quickly checked to see if there were any other changes in the space, but found nothing.
Just as I was wondering, Dahuang woke up outside and was making a fuss on the edge of the bed.
Yan Ruyu took it in as well. Dahuang was having fun inside, looking up at the mist, jumping and shouting.
Yan Ruyu let it play by itself and turned to go under the tree.
Looking up, there are still many red fruits on the tree, which are so lovely. This tree has been bearing fruit non-stop since it was able to bear fruit.
It seems like it never stops.
Just as I was daydreaming, Dahuang screamed, and the mist seemed to come alive, slowly floating towards the mountain, and was scared away by it.
