Chapter 256 You want to kill me, right?
Nanshan threw away the blood-stained sword, walked quickly to a big tree, and started coughing.
Seeing this, Yao Jia hurried to Nanshan and patted his back worriedly.
"Sir, what's wrong with you? Are you hurt?"
Nanshan shook his head and took a few deep breaths, trying to calm his breathing.
"Thank you for your concern, Pavilion Master... cough cough cough... I'm fine... I just... used some secret techniques and temporarily overdrawn some of my physical strength."
Will using secret techniques cause physical exhaustion?
Yao Jia blinked, and felt very upset when she thought about losing the secret book of the teleportation formation. Although she would be physically exhausted when using it, she was young and she was not afraid!
Just as she was about to ask Mr. Nanshan if he was willing to teach her the teleportation formation, she saw him looking at Gu Xiyan.
"General Gu, please don't tell anyone else that I know the secret technique."
Gu Xiyan nodded and looked around. Fortunately, those who stayed behind to cover the retreat were all his trusted confidants.
He said to everyone in a deep voice: "If it weren't for Mr. Nanshan using his secret technique to save us today, we would be dead by now. You must keep this to yourself. If anyone leaks the news, you will be killed without mercy!"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Gu Xiyan turned to look at Nanshan, bowed and thanked him, "Thank you for your help, sir. We will never forget it."
Nanshan raised his hand to support him, "General Gu, your words are too sincere. I am both your teacher and friend. You are your future husband, so I will certainly help you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiyan looked at Yao Jia.
Yao Jia glanced aside.
It was getting late, so everyone didn't dare to delay and got on their horses.
Yaojia's carriage had been badly damaged in the fight and could no longer be used.
Just as he was about to find a suitable horse to ride, he felt something tighten around his waist and flew into the air.
Before he could react, Gu Xiyan had already picked him up by the waist and put him on the horse's back.
Yao Jia was startled by this sudden movement and subconsciously hugged Gu Xiyan's waist, pressing her cheek against his cold armor, listening to the strong heartbeat coming from inside.
After he came to his senses, he struggled to get down.
"Put me down. I can ride the horse myself."
Gu Xiyan hugged her tightly, lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Don't move, there are no extra horses."
Before he finished speaking, he spurred his horse and galloped forward.
Yao Jia felt a little uncomfortable being held by him, but she didn't want to argue with him at this time. Escaping was the most important thing, as there was no telling if the assassins would come in a second wave.
Stop talking and let him hold you.
Seeing that she no longer resisted, Gu Xiyan's eyes showed joy.
The sound of horse hooves rang out on the snow, splashing up snowflakes.
The cold wind whistled past, causing Yao Jia's cheeks to hurt, and she couldn't help but snuggle into Gu Xiyan's arms.
Gu Xiyan saw her lowered eyes, her long eyelashes covered with frost, and her little face was pale from the cold.
"Is it cold?"
He tightened his cloak, pulled the reins, and slowed down.
When he looked down again, he found that her eyebrows were furrowed and her forehead was covered with cold sweat. His heart suddenly tightened, "Are you injured?"
Yao Jia shook her head and covered her lower abdomen, where she felt a dull pain. That damn menstrual period came at a really bad time.
Seeing her pale face and trembling all over, Gu Xiyan became even more worried, "Are you feeling unwell? Let's find a place to rest for a while."
The pain in her lower abdomen made her curl up and she shook her head, saying weakly, "Just focus on the journey. I'm fine. I'll be fine once I get to the post station and warm up."
Gu Xiyan didn't dare to delay, he squeezed the horse's belly and sped up instantly.
Finally, before dark, the rest of the group arrived at the post station.
Gu Xiyan immediately carried Yao Jia off the horse, rushed into the post station, and said to the guard at the door: "Go and get the doctor..."
Yao Jia was carried into the room and placed on the bed. She curled up into a ball with a furrowed brow, a pale face, and no trace of blood on her lips.
Gu Xiyan paced back and forth anxiously beside the bed, occasionally reaching out to touch her forehead to confirm whether she had a fever.
He doesn't have a fever and there are no wounds on his body, so why does he look so painful?
There was a series of knocks on the door.
"General Gu, it's me." Nanshan's voice came from outside the house.
Gu Xiyan hurriedly opened the door.
Nanshan stood in front of the door but did not go in. He looked around at the bed and quickly looked away.
"General, don't worry. The Pavilion Master is probably in her menstrual period."
"Guishui?"
Nanshan handed him a bag of clothes and said, "I have asked someone to prepare hot water. This is the Pavilion Master's spare clothes and... a menstrual belt. General... you can do whatever you want."
Gu Xiyan held the bag of clothes, an embarrassed blush appearing on her face.
I never expected that Yao Jia was like this because of Gui Shui, and I was a little at a loss for a moment.
He didn't even expect that Mr. Nanshan actually knew about it.
That’s right, Mr. Nanshan has a head full of silver hair, so he must be quite old and naturally has a lot of experience.
"Thank you, sir," he said gratefully.
"During the Guishui period, women are afraid of cold, so remember to keep them warm." Nanshan reminded.
Gu Xiyan didn't think much about it, nodded, and sent Nanshan away.
He returned to the bed and looked at Yao Jia, who was curled up in pain, with his heart filled with worry.
He reached out and gently stroked her bleeding cheek, and asked in a low voice: "How do you feel?"
Yao Jia closed her eyes tightly. The pain in her lower abdomen left her with no strength at all, and she was too lazy to speak.
She felt cold and painful all over, as if her whole body was being torn apart.
Hot water has been brought in.
In this condition, Yao Jia had difficulty even standing up, let alone washing herself.
He reached out to untie the belt around her waist.
"What are you doing?" Yao Jia forced her eyes open, breathing weakly.
Gu Xiyan blushed and stammered, "I'll help you... change your clothes..."
She finally understood his intention, but there were no women here, and the others...
Anyway, he had done this kind of thing many times in his previous life, so he closed his eyes and ignored it.
Seeing that she acquiesced, Gu Xiyan raised his hand and took off her outer shirt, revealing the white undershirt underneath.
The lower part of his middle garment was stained red with blood.
Gu Xiyan was shocked. Although it was not the first time he saw her having her period, he did not expect it to be so serious.
Carefully he took off her undershirt, revealing her slender waist and long legs.
Her skin was white as jade, but had a faint pink tint due to the pain.
The white panties inside were also stained with red.
After removing her clothes, Gu Xiyan didn't dare to look at her any longer. He brought hot water and carefully washed her body.
He kept his eyes straight throughout the whole process.
He quickly put on the new undershirt for her, then picked up the menstrual belt beside her, feeling troubled.
After all, it was the first time I did this for a woman, and my hands were shaking a little.
Should it be tied horizontally?
Or tie it vertically?
Or should I just roll it up and stuff it in?
He didn't dare ask Yao Jia, for fear that she would think he was stupid again.
After studying for half a day, I decided to try them one by one.
"It's tied wrongly..." Yao Jia reminded with half-closed eyes.
Gu Xiyan said "Oh", rolled up the cotton tape, and prepared to try...
Yao Jia took a glance, her eyes widened instantly, and she quickly clamped her legs together.
"Brother...are you going to kill me?" The voice was weak.
Gu Xiyan was stunned, and when he looked down, he saw that he was holding a strip of cotton cloth in his hand, pointing it between Yao Jia's legs. The action was as ambiguous as it could be.
Her face instantly turned red, she put down her hand awkwardly, bowed her head and admitted her mistake, "I... I don't know how to do it..."
Yao Jia felt that if she hadn't been completely exhausted at this moment, she would have kicked him eight hundred meters away.
"Tie it vertically..."
After saying this, she felt that all the strength in her body was drained away, so she closed her eyes and ignored him. Gu Xiyan took a deep breath, calmed down, and followed Yao Jia's instructions to tie the cotton strip vertically around her waist.
I tried to be as gentle as possible, for fear of hurting her.
After fastening it, I checked it again and only felt relieved after making sure there was no problem.
Change her into clean clothes and cover her with a quilt.
"You take a rest first. I'll prepare some hot soup and food for you."
After saying that, he turned and left the room.
Only when the door closed did Yao Jia dare to open her eyes.
Thinking of the embarrassing scene just now, a blush appeared on her cheeks.
She gently rubbed her lower abdomen, and the pain there made her frown.
It has been a long time since the situation has been as serious as it is today. It must be because the weather is too cold.
Not long after, the door was gently pushed open, and Gu Xiyan walked in with steaming porridge and side dishes.
