Yuan Xiao regretted it.

She regretted not exchanging the elixir of immortality sooner.

The only material she had yet to find to make the elixir of immortality was Pluto's crystal.

If she could make the liquid of immortality, she could give it to her family members, and then if they encountered such a critical situation again, they would not be afraid of suffering serious injuries.

Even if your life is in danger, you can still fight to the death.

Zexu shook his head.

He never blamed Yuan Xiao.

She has done so much for Tiger City.

He felt that he was old enough to protect her.

"It's my fault. I made mother worry."

Zehui and Yunfeng rushed over in a hurry.

The one who feels the most guilty is Zehui.

He carefully checked the injuries of Zexu and Zeyang.

"It's okay, you can handle it."

After hearing their father's words, Zexu and Zeyang were also encouraged and nodded with firm eyes.

Zehui said this to encourage them, but in fact he also felt sorry for these two children.

Yuan Xiao wiped her eyes and said to Ze Hui with tears in her eyes: "Send someone to tell Chi Miao that the Neptune Crystal must be found as soon as possible."

Chi Miao can’t help with Hui’s current situation for the time being.

If she could find Neptune's crystal and let everyone use the elixir of immortality as soon as possible, she would feel at ease.

After all, there is no telling how many dangers will occur in the days ahead...

Many of the pills and ointments developed by Yuan Xiao are very effective in treating external injuries, and Bi Zhi has become very familiar with the use of these medicines.

Every day after breakfast, Bizhi and Yuan Xiao would come over to apply medicine to them.

The first day was the most painful.

The wound was long and deep. After a night, the outer skin seemed to have healed, but the inside had not yet healed.

When applying the medicine, you need to pick open the outer skin first, then clean the deep part of the wound, remove the blood clots, and then apply a thick ointment.

Ordinary people would grimace just by hearing about these operations, let alone experiencing them.

However, Ze Xu never said a word. He always looked calm, with only his brows furrowed.

It was in stark contrast to Zeyang who was screaming like a ghost next to him.

Sometimes Bizhi couldn't bear it anymore, and while treating the wound, she said to Zexu: "If it hurts, just scream, don't bear it."

Zexu glanced at Zeyang and said, "Shame on you."

Yuan Xiao couldn't bear it any longer, so she tentatively said to Ze Yang, "I know it hurts, can you just bear with it?"

Zeyang kept groaning: "Mom, you don't know at all, ouch! It hurts so much! I can't stand it! It hurts too much!"

Yuan Xiao was sweating profusely because of her shouting, feeling both distressed and helpless.

Fortunately, the wound was cleaned thoroughly, and Yuan Xiao asked someone to bring in all the food.

Zexu had no appetite and only ate half of it.

As for Zeyang, although he cried out in pain, it did not affect his eating speed at all.

Zexu: "Can't eating stop you from talking?"

Zeyang: "Ouch...hiss...Ouch..."

While humming, he stuffed a chicken leg into his mouth.

"The chicken drumstick tastes wrong today. Is it not made by my mother?"

Zeyang licked his fingers, savoring the flavor of the cooked chicken leg.

Ze Xu rolled his eyes at him and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

Both brothers had a very difficult night.

The wounds all over their bodies were painful and itchy, stimulating every nerve in their bodies.

The wound cannot be touched. If it is touched lightly, the needle-like pain will immediately penetrate into the bone marrow.

But you have to lie down to sleep, so even if you want to turn over, it is difficult to do so.

Zexu is not a pretentious person.

You know, if it weren't for their father and mother, they would be lying in the woods, licking their wounds on the rough straw.

Instead of thinking about it like now, lying in a comfortable bed, with someone giving me medicine and bringing me meals.

With such serious injuries, they would be abandoned by their tribesmen in the wild because they knew it was impossible for them to survive.

So Zexu cherishes his current life very much, but at this moment, he kind of hopes that it would be better if Zeyang was not by his side.

"Oh...Brother, can you fall asleep? This is too uncomfortable..."

After dark, Zeyang kept groaning. Zexu had been enduring it, but now he was also feeling pain and itchiness, feeling extremely uncomfortable. He was about to collapse when he heard him groan like that.

Zexu: "You can't solve anything this way, can't you just shut up?"

Zeyang: "Ouch... please don't bear it, I don't believe you don't feel pain..."

Zexu clenched his teeth and said nothing.

Ze Yang: "I'm telling the truth. Humming seems to help relieve the pain. If you don't believe me, try it! Anyway, there's no one else here. I won't laugh at you."

Really? Is there such an effect?

Zexu cleared his throat.

Hearing the sound, Zeyang was quiet for a while, waiting for Zexu to hum with him.

After five minutes, it was still quiet. Zexu closed his eyes: "This is good. Go to sleep."

He didn't shout out after all.

Seeing Zexu's eyes closed and breathing evenly, Zeyang guessed that his brother might have fallen asleep.

He looked at the ceiling and muttered to himself for a long time before falling asleep.

------------

In the morning, Bizhi went to see Yuan Xiao with a medical kit.

The two men walked downstairs while discussing the brothers' injuries.

Today's dressing change process was still accompanied by Zeyang's screams.

"Sister Bizhi, can you be gentler? You're hurting me!"

Bizhi glared at him and deliberately pressed his wound hard.

"Ah! Ouch! It hurts so much!"

Looking at Zeyang's twisted facial features, Bizhi suppressed her laughter and said, "The blood clots in this wound must be cleaned up completely."

Yuan Xiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, your wounds are healing well, just hang in there!"

Zexu nodded.

It’s not that he didn’t feel pain, but he didn’t want to make Yuan Xiao feel sad, so he endured it.

Of course, he also envied his father's bravery and felt that getting injured was no big deal.

After applying the medicine, Zeyang made another request: "Can we go back to live here?"

He was referring to the small castle back next to Motoshino Castle, where the children lived.

Yuan Xiao shook her head and said, "When you are well enough to walk around freely, you can go back."

Zeyang: "Ah... I'm afraid it will take a long time..."

Yuan Xiao: "If there's anything you want, I'll ask someone to get it for you."

Zeyang: "I...I won't say..."

Yuan Xiao: "What's this? What do you want?"

Zeyang forced a smile: "Bed... I recognize this bed, I can't sleep here..."

Yuan Xiao and Bi Zhi couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Zexu suddenly understood why Zeyang had been making such a fuss last night.

On the morning of the third day, Bizhi brought the medicine box directly to the dining room, intending to go there after having dinner with Yuan Xiao.

The reason why she came so early was because several guards were injured last night and needed her to take care of them...
