Xiao Chi was indeed not in a coma, but was sleeping. He not only slept for the whole night, but also for the whole morning. At the end of the afternoon, he finally opened his eyes.

E Yu was the first person to notice that he had opened his eyes, and he immediately became extremely excited, "The prince is awake, the prince is finally awake!"

She was so happy not only because Xiao Chi woke up, but also because he was a prince. If he died, the dog emperor would definitely blame them, and they would die in a particularly ugly way.

He was awake, which proved that their lives were safe.

"What's wrong with me?" Xiao Chi frowned. He wanted to sit up, but as soon as he moved, he felt a piercing pain in his chest.

His frown deepened.

Song Yao said, "Not only did you sleep all night, you even slept all morning today. If someone didn't know, they would think you were dead."

"Ayao!" Song Yuanbai looked stern.

Song Yao pouted and turned her head away.

E Yu said: "Your Highness, you were injured and slept for a long time. Your wound has not healed yet, so don't move."

Song He said, "Any deeper and your heart will be hurt. You should rest well."

After they said this, Xiao Chi suddenly remembered that he was injured by Song Yao last night, but it was he who asked Song Yao to do it.

I didn't expect that he slept for so long.

Song Yuanbai showed a look of respect on his face, "Your Majesty, how do you feel now?"

"It's nothing serious, just the wound hurts a little." Xiao Chi said calmly.

E Yu asked tentatively, "Your Highness, A Yao hurt you last night. You won't blame A Yao, right?"

"No." Xiao Chi answered decisively.

After hearing Xiao Chi's words, E Yu and the others felt relieved.

Song Yuanbo felt a little uncomfortable holding Xiao Suisui, so he handed Xiao Suisui to Song Yao.

Now Xiao Sui Sui has fallen asleep, and he didn't cry when Song Yao held him in her arms.

Because Xiao Chi woke up, everyone stopped worrying about him.

He continued to close his eyes. There was no other way. The wound was really painful now.

……

On the other side, Song Zizhou and Song Qing rode at full speed to take Old Man Xu to Pingchuan.

After walking for a day, they stopped to rest in the evening, prepared to eat something, and then continue on their journey.

Old Man Xu was sitting on Song Zizhou's horse. He called Old Man Xu several times, preparing to give him some dry food, but after calling him several times, Old Man Xu did not respond.

Song Zizhou realized that something was wrong, so he took Old Man Xu's hand and felt his pulse, but he couldn't feel any pulse at all.

Song Zizhou's heart sank. He reached out to check Old Man Xu's breath, but there was no breath at all!

"Song Qing, come here quickly." Song Qing was eating on horseback. When he heard Song Zizhou's words, he got off the horse and came over.

Coming to Song Zizhou, Song Qing asked, "What's wrong?"

Song Zizhou said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid the old man has passed away!"

"What?" Song Qing was so frightened that he couldn't even think about eating. He immediately reached out to check his breath, but he couldn't feel any breath. He could only carry Old Man Xu down.

After putting Old Man Xu on the ground, he lay on his chest and listened to his heartbeat.

But I didn't even realize that my heartbeat had stopped.

Song Qing frowned, turned to look at Song Zizhou standing aside, shook his head and said, "The old man is no longer alive. I don't know when he passed away."

As he spoke, his eyes began to turn red.

Song Zizhou's heart skipped a beat. He gritted his teeth and looked at Old Man Xu lying on the ground.

His eyes were closed and his chest was motionless. Just as Song Qing said, he was dead.

Neither Song Zizhou nor Song Qing could accept the news that Old Man Xu had died just like that.

He's such a good person, why...

They were thinking of taking him to Pingchuan and finding a doctor to see him, thinking that he would survive like Song Jing and Li Zhao. However, they didn't expect that he died before reaching Pingchuan.

Song Zizhou and Song Qing looked at Old Man Xu's body quietly in silence.

After a long while, Song Qing finally spoke, "What should we do now?"

Song Zizhou sighed and said, "Either go find them, or wait here for them to come."

Song Qing turned around and shifted his gaze to Song Zizhou. "The bodies of the old lady and the old man were placed in the camp before, which attracted Zhu Huai at night. If the old man's body had been left here, it might have attracted Zhu Huai again."

"I understand your concerns, but we can't bury him just yet," Song Zizhou said. "If all else fails, then we can place the old man's body higher up. That way, even if Zhu Huai leaves, he won't be able to find his body. And if we hide further away, we won't run into Zhu Huai either."

"alright."

Song Qing agreed because he didn't want to meet Zhu Huai again.

Afterwards, Song Zizhou carried Old Man Xu's body on his back, flew to the tallest tree, and placed Old Man Xu's body on it.

Finally, he took off his coat and covered Old Man Xu with it.

Song Zizhou's throat choked. He reached out and gently patted Old Man Xu's hand. "Old man, we will definitely bury you properly. Thank you for your care during this time."

He lowered his head, observed a moment of silence, and then flew away.

They didn't leave, but stayed there, ate something, and then walked away.

Fortunately, the night passed peacefully.

It took more than a day for Song Yao and the others to arrive.

The person driving the carriage was Song Mingxuan. When he saw Song Zizhou and Song Qing in front, but there was no sign of Old Man Xu, he was confused.

"Ayao, my brother and the others are in front." Song Mingxuan said this before getting off the carriage.

Song Yao, E Yu and others came out shortly afterwards.

The people in the other carriages also came out.

When Song Zizhou saw them arrive, he kept his lips tightly shut. After they came over, he said, "The old man..."

When they didn't see Old Man Xu, they had already guessed what was going on.

Song Yao asked, "What about the others?"

Song Zizhou said, "We were afraid his body would attract Zhu Huai, so we placed him on that tree."

E Yu looked at Song Zizhou in disbelief, "So, does this mean the old man is really dead?"

"Yeah." Song Zizhou nodded. "We found him when we stopped to rest. He was already dead when we found him."

"Ah." Song Yuanbai sighed, "It's true that good people don't live long."

They still remember vividly everything Old Man Xu had done for them, and they couldn't believe that a man like him could die like this.

Song Yao said, "Let's carry his body down, and then we can bury him first."

"it is good!"

Song Zizhou nodded and flew up the tree, but after a while, he flew down, and his body was empty.

Seeing that he didn't carry Old Man Xu's body down, Song Yao frowned and asked, "Where is the old man's body?"

"It's gone!" Song Zizhou's heart trembled when he said this, and the others all showed shocked expressions after hearing his words.
