Chapter 196 You Are Not Afraid of Death
"My uncle and cousin are both great men who care about the world. The court needs them, and the people need them even more."
Yuan Ying smiled, "Sister, I know. I am also proud to have such a father and brother... But when mother is not in good health, I always think too much..."
Mu Qingyan hugged her thin shoulders and said, "I promise you, Auntie is fine. If you are fine, she will be fine too."
Mu Qingyan went to look for the abbot, and Yuan Ying walked around the back hall.
Suddenly, a bloody hand stretched out from behind, grabbed her and put its tiger's mouth around her throat, "Don't make a sound! Or I'll kill you!"
Although the man's tone was fierce, someone as careful as Yuan Ying could naturally hear that he was just a spent force.
"You are seriously injured and need timely treatment..."
The person behind him paused, "Are you not afraid of death?"
Yuan Ying looked calm, without a trace of panic, "You didn't want to kill me, you were just afraid that your hiding place would be exposed because of me... But your injuries are too severe, no matter how hard you try, you will fall into a coma due to blood loss... Let me go, I'll ask my sister to save you, she's a doctor with great medical skills..."
The man smiled with indifference, and added a little more strength to the hand that was pinching her neck, and said in a weak voice, "Why should I believe you..."
A hint of pride flashed across Yuan Ying's lowered brows, and then, with lightning speed, she grabbed the hand that was strangling her throat, deftly twisted his hand behind her back, and then chopped his neck with a knife.
The man's eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Before I closed my eyes, I was filled with disbelief.
Yun Ai had been following Yuan Ying secretly. When she saw her being held hostage, she wanted to seize the opportunity to rescue her. However, before she could do anything, the person was knocked unconscious by her, and her movements to rescue her were frozen.
Because no one would have thought that a little girl who looks delicate and harmless could be so agile.
Yuan Ying looked over and said, "Please go find my sister and save him..."
This man was covered in wounds, some of which had already started to swell and fester, and others were bleeding. It seemed that he had been chased all the way and had no chance to treat his wounds, which was why he was like this.
Yuan Ying pushed aside his messy hair, revealing a face that was a little rough and dark, but very handsome and resolute.
His face was covered in blood, but it did not affect his handsomeness. Instead, it gave him a kind of broken beauty. If he washed his face, who knows how handsome he would be.
Yuan Ying thought.
When the man woke up again, he was in an unfamiliar environment, which looked like a meditation room in a temple. Hearing the movement at the door, he sat up subconsciously and took a defensive state.
The door opened and a girl came in. She looked about sixteen or seventeen years old and looked weak, but she had not forgotten her clothes. It was this seemingly harmless girl who knocked her out!
"you're awake?"
"Where are my things?"
The two of them spoke at the same time.
Yuan Ying put the bundle in her hand next to him, "Everything you had is here. Your clothes are all covered in blood. They were cut up when I treated your wounds. I've burned them."
The man hurriedly opened the bag and checked it. He was relieved to see that nothing was missing.
He seemed to remember something, and raised his head slowly, with a guilty look on his face, "Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you..."
The girl had fair and tender skin. The blood on her throat had been wiped clean, but the red mark that looked like a fingerprint could still be vaguely seen. It was left by him.
Yuan Ying didn't care. "I hit you with my palm, so we're even. This is the meditation room of Qingguang Temple, but you can't stay here for long, or the people who want to kill you will come and implicate the masters in the temple... It's getting late, my sister and I have to go back to the city, do you want to go back with us?"
The man's face was washed clean. He looked very pale due to blood loss, but that sad smile still dazzled Yuan Ying's eyes...
"You're afraid that I might bring trouble to the monks in the temple, but you're asking me if I want to go back to the city with you. Aren't you afraid that I might bring trouble to you?"
"We will help you to the end. If we don't care about you, I'm afraid you will still die. Let's go. It will be more dangerous after dark."
There were clothes prepared in the carriage, and since I was traveling with my cousin today, there were also men's clothes.
After Yuan Ying left, the man picked up his coat and put it on, then staggered out of the room with injuries all over his body.
There was another girl outside the door.
Different from the gentle and lovely girl just now, she looked colder and more beautiful. The moment she saw him, a hint of suspicion flashed in her eyes. Although she quickly concealed it, he still noticed it.
The carriage was still at the foot of the hill, and still had to go down a long flight of steps.
"Please get on the stretcher." Yuan Ying's tone contained a tone that did not allow for rejection.
He knew how badly he was injured, so he didn't dare to show off. So he slowly sat on the stretcher and lay down.
They asked two martial monks from the temple to carry him away.
Mu Qingyan is not a person who likes to meddle in other people's affairs, but she will not stand by and watch someone die.
After Yuanying helped the man wash his face, she felt that he looked familiar, but she couldn't tell who he looked like.
It was not until he stood in front of her that the face overlapped with the person in her memory.
It seems that some things are destined by God...
Some people are just not destined to die.
The monk carried the man down the mountain, put him on a carriage, and left chanting Buddhist mantras.
Mu Qingyan and Yuan Ying also supported each other and stepped up.
The man was lying down at first, but when he saw the two girls coming up, he felt that it was inappropriate for him to lie down like that, so he struggled to sit up, but Yuan Ying stopped him with one sentence, "Just lie down!"
He was stunned for a moment, said nothing, and lay down silently again.
Yuan Ying took out a thick cloak from under the carriage seat and covered him with it.
Mu Qingyan didn't say anything, but was secretly surprised.
I didn't expect that Yuan Ying, who was usually gentle and soft and never spoke loudly, could have such a strong side. Yun Ai said that she used a counter-grab and a knife to knock the man unconscious, and she was stunned.
Hiding your strength also has its benefits.
Only by taking the enemy by surprise can you defeat him with one move.
She knew that Yuan Ying was a meticulous and cautious person, and she would not act rashly if she was not sure of something.
The man was lying there, but a hundred thoughts were running through his mind.
But it doesn't seem appropriate to talk at this time.
After passing through a dense forest on the winding mountain road, the carriage suddenly stopped and the two people sitting in it were almost thrown out.
A rough voice came from outside, "Leave the dying one here, we won't make things difficult for you."
Then a crisp female voice came, "If you want to fight, then fight. Why waste your words!"
Soon, the sound of fighting was heard outside.
