Transmigrating into a female supporting role in a book

Tianhe pressed the wound with one hand and stood up from the chair. "It seems that he is really chasing us. We have to find a way to avoid him."

I leaned over to support him, and unconsciously looked down to see the fresh blood drops that had just appeared on the floor, like broken red petals. While I was sighing in my heart that I must be careful with my hands and feet in the future, I suddenly remembered what Wu Jiu had said to me...

"What are you doing?" Tianhe couldn't help but raise his voice a few notches when he saw me suddenly pull out a dagger and slash my palm with it. Blood dripped onto the ground like beads from a broken string.

I smiled slightly and clenched my fist to make the wound bleed faster and harder. "Let's do an experiment to see if we can break the firefly Gu that's tracking people."

He raised his eyebrows and his voice sank again, "Did that Great Moon King teach you?"

"Well... I guess so. It may also be that I do have some talent in controlling Gu." I estimated that the blood dripping from Tianhe's wound on the floor was basically covered by my blood.

"It's almost done, time to stop the bleeding." He urged with a frown.

"Well, let's go. Do you have any other houses where we can rest?"

He looked at me and said nothing, but took out a small medicine bottle. As soon as he uncorked it, I could smell the hemostatic powder. Before he took the initiative to apply the medicine on me, I waved at him with my five fingers spread out. "It's healed already. Didn't I tell you that I have a special physique and can recover very quickly from any injury? Why don't you use it on yourself first?"

He still frowned, said nothing, and silently put the medicine bottle back into his waist.

Before the people from the palace caught up with us, we changed our location but did not leave the courtyard.

Although Tianhe didn't quite understand why I had to hide in the dark and see with my own eyes the person who came to catch up with me, he unexpectedly didn't argue with me, but listened to my arrangements quietly.

In addition to the imperial guards, I saw an old man in strange clothes among the crowd in the yard. As soon as he entered the door, he went straight to the main room where Tianhe and I had stayed before, but he turned back and jumped out in the yard like a rage, crushing something and throwing it heavily to the ground.

I heard him mumbling something to a man who seemed to be the leader, and then he quickly went out.

The leader ordered the other soldiers to spread out and search the yard, and then he followed closely and chased after them.

I had seen that old man in the palace before. Although I didn't have much impression of his face, his voice and his long black nails left a deep impression on me.

There were only a few things in this small courtyard, and they were all seen at a glance. The rest of the people poked around a few times with their scabbards or spears in a perfunctory manner, and then withdrew after confirming that there was nothing unusual.

After making sure that those people had gone far away, I breathed a sigh of relief and crawled out of our hiding place with Tianhe.

When I got to the courtyard, I saw a pool of black water on the ground, and there was a strange smell. I covered my nose and wanted to get closer to take a look, but Tianhe pulled me away from behind and said, "The Gu Master just now is from the Yuexi tribe. He said that his Gu technique was cracked by you, and he is still wondering how you know these things."

I looked at him in surprise, "Do you understand what he said?"

"I know a little bit of the Yuexi dialect." His eyes became sharp as he spoke, "How did you do it?"

"This is a long story, I'll explain it later. For now, let's leave here. Although he can't use the witchcraft to track people for the time being, this place has been discovered, so it's not safe. Don't you agree?"

Tianhe nodded, agreed with my point of view, and took me to another place - the backyard of Wanbaozhai.

Although the front door was closed, he knocked on the back door a few times in a rhythmic manner, and soon someone came to open the door.

The other party didn't say anything, but when he saw Tianhe's face, he clearly showed an expression of surprise and immediately led us in.

The environment here seems to be similar to the last time I came here, but it makes me feel inexplicably depressed. Yes, the servants in the yard seem to have disappeared.

I was placed in a guest room, Tianhe followed the young man out, and just asked me to wait for a while. I didn't know what they were going to do, or if they just wanted to avoid me. I was too lazy to figure it out. I just felt tired and hungry. Once I sat down, I wanted to lie down, and once I lay down, I wanted to close my eyes.

It wasn't until I smelled the fragrance of food that I opened my eyes and found that Tianhe had come back and brought a lot of hot food.

"You must be starving. Eat quickly."

At times like this, I didn't bother to be polite with him. I just took the chopsticks and started eating.

He cleaned up the four plates of food in front of him like a whirlwind, plus a big bowl of hot soup noodles, and was so full that he could only burp.

Tianhe, who was pouring tea for me, shook his head and chuckled, "No one is competing with you for it."

Only then did I realize that he seemed to be just keeping company and didn't move. I asked a little embarrassedly, "What about you? Did you eat anything? Did I eat up all the food for both of us?"

"It's okay, I'm not hungry. You've been tired and busy, so you'd better eat more." As he said that, he handed over a cup of hot tea he had just poured.

I was a little uncomfortable with his gentle attitude all of a sudden. I took the teacup and smiled uncomfortably, "Thank you very much. By the way, your injury..."

"The bleeding has stopped long ago."

"That's good." As I spoke, I couldn't help but yawn.

Anyway, I no longer have the image of a princess in front of this guy, and I am too lazy to maintain that persona anymore.

"Do you want to take a shower?" His suggestion immediately dispelled some of my sleepiness and I nodded repeatedly.

He led me to another room that was set up as a bathroom. There was a half-person-high tub filled with hot water, and a set of utensils were placed beside it. There were also women's clothes hanging on the hangers next to it. "If you need anything else, just call me."

After saying that, he walked out.

I must cherish this hard-earned opportunity to take a bath.

After my body was completely immersed in the hot water, I couldn't help but sigh in comfort. Although I had complained countless times since I came to this world, I was still lucky when I thought about it. At least the body with the same name and surname as me was a young lady from the Duke's Mansion. Even though the person I married was not right, I didn't suffer any real hardship. Later, I became a princess, and my life was extremely luxurious compared to ordinary people.

For modern people, a hot bath is a common daily cleaning, but it is also very expensive in this era. Ordinary people just draw some well water and use it. It takes a lot of firewood to boil such a large bucket of hot water just for a bath. They may not be willing to spend it in winter, let alone in the hot weather now.

It's not easy, but if I can go back, I still want to go home. Even if I live like a princess, I would lose out if I exchange it for air conditioning, watermelon ice cream, computer, mobile phone and water heater that can be used anytime.
