Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 171 Can’t Die

Xiao Guoer kept muttering to herself, but her hands were not idle. She used all her strength to move the unconscious Eighth Prince.

It was with great difficulty that I moved him to a flatter place and finally stopped to catch my breath.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead, stood up and observed the surrounding terrain.

As far as the eye can see, the terrain is uneven and it is difficult to get a full picture of the place.

But she faintly heard the sound of gurgling water. Looking at the man lying on the ground, she decided to go to the place where the sound of the water came from and take a look first.

You also have to find a place to hide before dark, preferably a cave.

If they fall, the Eighth Prince's men will definitely come down to look for them, but the assassin's men might also come down to look for them. And who knows what deadly beasts may be in this deep forest.

If they could find a cave, they would not be completely exposed in the open wilderness, and if they encountered assassins or wild beasts, they could hide there.

Thinking of this, Xiao Guoer decisively decided to leave the Eighth Prince here and go find a place for herself.

After Zhao Yunrong opened his eyelids, he felt pain all over his body instantly, especially the burning pain in his arms and shoulders.

But he had no time to care about the pain in his body because he didn't see the person he had tried so hard to save.

Zhao Yunrong stood up with difficulty and looked around, searching for Xiao Guoer.

He didn't find Xiaoguoer, but he discovered two traces of fresh broken branches on the ground and traces of dragging on the dead leaves.

This means that Xiaoguoer also fell in this place.

But what about people?

Seeing that he was injured, unconscious and became a burden, you abandoned him and ran away alone?

Zhao Yunrong picked up the broken sword that fell on the ground. An uncontrollable rage surged in his heart. His eyes were bloodshot, like a raging lion.

His body was shaking slightly from the anger churning in his heart.

This was the first time he had risked his own life to save someone, only to end up with this result?

Haha...it's really good!

His chest, which had been injured internally, seemed to have a fishy and sweet taste of blood rolling up to his throat, and then drops of bright red blood could not be suppressed from flowing out from the corners of his mouth.

He was about to raise his hand to wipe it away when he suddenly heard a familiar cry.

"Your Majesty!"

His hand froze in mid-air and he turned back towards the voice.

The next moment, in the lush and verdant forest that blocked out the sun, a thin and slender figure was running straight towards him.

There was an unconcealable look of joy on this man's face, and his pair of lively big eyes were unusually bright, as eye-catching as the bright stars in the night sky.

Xiao Guo'er was secretly worried. What should she do if the Eighth Prince remained unconscious? Dragging such a strong and tall adult man, she was afraid that she would not be able to drag him far even if she was exhausted!

But she didn't expect that when she turned back, she found that the Eighth Prince had woken up. How could she not be overjoyed?

She carefully held the water on a huge leaf, took brisk steps, and trotted in front of Zhao Yunrong in a moment.

But the next moment, when he saw the bloodstains on the corners of the Eighth Prince's mouth, his expression changed slightly, and his voice was filled with astonishment, "Prince, did you vomit blood?!"

Zhao Yunrong silently stared at Xiao Guo'er who was so close to him. He wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand that had been frozen in the air, and said in a calm tone, "She won't die."

Xiao Guoer was very worried. Between the two of them, the Eighth Prince was more powerful in terms of fighting ability. If she encountered any dangerous situation, she would have to rely on him. If he fell down, she would have no one to rely on!

Thinking of this, she blurted out, "Doesn't the prince have a top-notch healing medicine? Take one quickly!"

Then, Xiao Guoer saw the Eighth Prince take out a small and exquisite medicine bottle from his arms, pour out a small white pill, and put it into his mouth.

She handed the water in her hand forward at the right time, "Your Majesty, drink some water."

Zhao Yunrong took the water and drank it all. Then his eyes suddenly became extremely sharp and he stared at the person in front of him like an eagle.

"How do you know that I have healing medicine on me?" His voice was cold and low, revealing an invisible pressure.

Xiao Guoer was frightened by this sudden questioning, and the alarm bell in her heart immediately rang. She stammered and replied, "I... I saw that Lord Shen always carried medicine with him, so I guessed... Your Majesty might also carry medicine with you."

Zhao Yunrong's eyes were deep and captivating, as if he could see into people's hearts. His tone was extremely cold, "Guess?"

Xiao Guoer's body was covered with a layer of fine beads of sweat. She suppressed her inner panic and tried her best to keep her voice calm. She nodded calmly, "Yes, I guess that perhaps those people with outstanding martial arts skills would carry some healing medicines with them in case of emergency."

When she felt the heavy pressure from the gaze on her face gradually ease, she quickly changed the subject and said, "Your Majesty, we fell here, your people should be able to find us soon, right?"

"How do you know that the assassin didn't come earlier?"

"Ah...what should I do then?" Xiao Guoer's face was instantly filled with sorrow, and she looked anxious and worried.

On the other hand, Zhao Yunrong remained expressionless, and said calmly: "If that is the case, then you will have to go and attract the assassin's attention, so that I can have a chance to escape."

"Ah...?" Xiao Guo'er couldn't believe her ears. Her eyes widened and she was speechless, unable to speak.

Zhao Yunrong watched with interest as the expression of the person in front of him gradually changed. He slightly opened his lips, revealing an expression of disbelief and indescribable surprise, and his mood instantly became happy and comfortable.

When Xiao Guoer saw the smile in the man's eyes, the uneasiness in her heart instantly faded away, and she couldn't help but bite her back teeth.

He's playing tricks on her!

Such a noble prince actually has such a bad taste!

The muscles on Xiaoguo'er's face twitched uncontrollably twice, but she still tried her best to suppress the surging emotions in her heart and tried hard to restrain the urge to roll her eyes.

Doesn't this person always have a serious expression?! Can he still joke? It's really red rain, how strange!

In the end, she was afraid that this man would not play by the rules. Although he risked his life to save her this time, there was no guarantee that he would not abandon her the next time they were in danger, or really use her to block the assassin's attack.

Xiao Guoer dared not speak out her anger, and tried her best to show her usefulness, hoping that the prince would see her diligence and save her next time she was in danger.

"Your Highness, I found a fallen carriage not far ahead, as well as a water source. The carriage has been broken into pieces, but the things inside can still be used. In addition, I also found a cave. Shall we go there to rest for a while?"

"Yeah." Zhao Yunrong nodded slightly.
