“…” Miaomiao glanced at her, wondering why this girl was so familiar, or perhaps, self-centered.

This was probably a common problem among the nobility, but the girl was obviously unaware of this and continued to smile and say, "Xiao Jing, you are so beautiful."

Chi gave her a cold look.

Sensing the ill intention, Yao Xi's smile faded slightly.

She raised her eyebrows and said to the bold civilian, "What's the matter?"

Chi said coldly: "You are too noisy."

Yao Xi: “…”

The aristocratic girl's already fading smile froze completely.

She has heard many people praise her for being lively, kind and enthusiastic since she was a child, but no one has ever said that she is noisy.

She turned to Miaomiao angrily, "Is this your brother?"

How could such a noble and elegant-looking child be accompanied by such an rude guy?

Miaomiao didn't seem to notice her depression. She thought about her question seriously and replied, "No, we are friends."

He turned his head and looked at the tall boy beside him, a smile suddenly raised at the corner of his lips, "My only friend."

Even though they had not known each other for long, due to the influence of the symbiotic contract, Chi's presence still gave him an endless sense of trust.

Not only were their lives connected, but their hearts were also connected. Chi would never betray him—all the messages conveyed through the contract spoke of this.

He said to Yao Xi seriously, "He is my best friend and brother, forever."

The words Yao Xi was about to say were suddenly stuck in her throat.

She looked at the still smiling black-haired child in front of her. The other party's firm attitude made her unable to say the words she wanted to mock Chi.

Because it is obvious that the child will side with his friend.

She was confused for a moment, and for a moment she recalled her brothers, but then the stupid pig-like figures that appeared in her mind made her face suddenly distorted. It can be said that the word "brother" brought her no good memories at all.

Incomprehensible.

But also seems a little envious.

The noble girl's chattering mouth completely shut up at this moment.

She sat back in her seat quietly, her eyes looking at the ceiling, as if she was lost in thought.

The carriage continued to move forward, no one spoke, and the only sound in the carriage was the patients' slow and heavy breathing.

Miaomiao sat leaning on her bare arm, the sound of "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh" in her ears never stopped, like an old bellows that had been used for years, making people feel as if they could not breathe.

Suddenly, one of the breathing sounds suddenly stopped.

It was a tiny movement, but like a wrong note played in a piano piece, it made everyone turn their eyes away at the same time.

The noise came from the corner of the carriage, where a man collapsed in the innermost corner. Miaomiao recognized him immediately: it was the unlucky man who was almost trampled to death by the cavalry captain.

He was now in a semi-comatose state of shock. He did not respond to the calls of the people around him. His eyes were closed, his face was pale, and the blood flowing from his body and mouth had soaked the floor of the carriage.

"He won't make it to the hospital." Chi knew it after just one glance. "A rock pierced his upper right abdomen, where his liver is. With luck, he could have lived for half an hour, but he must have been irritated and he's bleeding profusely."

The source of the stimulation is obvious.

Without immediate treatment, death can occur within minutes.

Miaomiao lifted the carriage curtain, and beneath the glaring sunlight, the street scene flew by. The carriage was actually moving very fast, but the main roads in the city were so badly damaged that they were now circling back and forth through alleys.

Someone with less severe injuries managed to half-raise themselves and peer through the window. They said, "No. It's going to take at least ten minutes to get to the nearest hospital from here. He won't survive that long."

Yao Xi scratched her hair, paced back and forth for a few steps, and said with determination: "I will use magic to take him away."

Although the carriage was already moving very fast, she should be able to go even faster if she ran at full speed using her magic power.

The man gave a wry smile and said, "He probably can't stand any more bumps in his current state."

Yao Xi paused.

Although she was reluctant to admit it, her current fourth-tier magic power level was indeed insufficient to maintain stability during prolonged movement. Especially since her magic power was still the heavy earth element, high-speed movement was her worst strength.

There was no need to count on the injured people on the ground. If they had magic power, they would not have been seriously injured in the rain of stones.

She couldn't help feeling powerless.

She wanted to save people, but the result still seemed not to her satisfaction.

For a moment, she felt as if she were back in her childhood nightmare, kneeling on the ground in a mess of blood, bewildered, surrounded by the bodies of children her own age. It was that man's hand that lifted her up, and his gentle voice seemed to be shrouded in holy light, banishing the hesitation in her heart.

She heard soothing words from that person: "It's okay, it's not your fault."

It's not her fault.

But these people died for her, Yao Xi thought blankly.

"If you still feel guilty, then go and save more people," the voice said to her.

“Saving one isn’t enough, saving ten isn’t enough, then save a hundred, save a thousand… until you feel your soul has been redeemed.”

"In this way, these dead people also realized their own value."

She was lost in the gentle words.

We must save people, save more people, save them, and also save ourselves who have been trapped in the past and cannot escape.

She became the kind-hearted Yao Xi of today.

The unconscious man suddenly started coughing violently, and the sound interrupted her momentary trance. Yao Xi stood up suddenly and shouted outside the carriage, "Can you go faster?"

After a few seconds, Xing Yue's voice came vaguely from outside the curtain: "Okay."

The next second, the carriage suddenly accelerated.

The patients who were still awake were unable to react in time and slammed into the wooden walls of the carriage. Those whose injuries were not so serious spit out blood and their faces suddenly became listless.

Miaomiao looked at the group of seriously injured people in front of her and said, "..."

He silently released a little light magic power onto everyone, not much, just enough to keep them angry.

Yao Xi looked at him in surprise: "Are you a light magician?"

Miaomiao glanced at her and said nothing.

It was well known that light magic had healing properties, so Yao Xi was pleasantly surprised when she first realized he was a light magician. But then she thought about how young the child was. How much magic power could such a young child possess? He was probably only a second-tier mage at best.

To treat a fatal injury, a light magician of at least level five or above would be needed. What Miaomiao could do was just a drop in the bucket.

She sighed and sat back, looking out the window at the streets speeding by. Because the main road was affected and damaged, they were now having to take detours through the alleys, which greatly increased the time it took to reach the hospital.

Can they catch up?

She couldn't help but murmur, "If only my healing potion hadn't run out..."

As a lady of aristocracy, she naturally carried a lot of life-saving treasures with her when traveling, but now it was the end of her journey, and she had used all kinds of life-saving props to save different people along the way, and now her hands were empty.

Miaomiao asked: "What is a healing potion?"

Yao Xi replied, "It's a special alchemical potion, extracted from the blue grass, that has the ability to sustain life. People often suffer serious injuries during outdoor training. This healing potion can heal common injuries, and even fatal ones can delay them waiting for the doctor to arrive... but I'm out of it."

She regretted it now, "I wish I had taken more when I went out."

Even if we just bring one more bottle, this man's life can still be saved.

Miaomiao suddenly said, "Biluo grass, is it the kind of grass with long, thin stems and leaves and circles of dark green rings on them?"

Yao Xi seemed to sense the hidden meaning behind his words and suddenly raised her head.

"you know?"

No, since he chose to say it at this time, it should not just be acquaintance, but -

"Do you have this kind of grass in your hand?"

Her eyes seemed to be shining.

Miaomiao didn't answer directly, but asked: "Does the unextracted raw materials also have an effect?"

Yao Xi nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course! Although the effect is not as pure as the potion, it is still effective."

At least it can help the man in front of me to live for a few more minutes. Maybe those few minutes are all he needs.

She asked anxiously, "You have this herb, right? I can buy it from you. How many gold coins do you want?"

How could Miaomiao know the price of this grass outside? In the Lost Forest, Biluo Grass was just a common plant. Many mythical beasts would chew on it after being injured in a fight. Miaomiao had seen it before, so she had a rough idea of ​​the effects of this grass.

He said casually, "Just give it as you see fit."

Then, under the girl's urgent gaze, he took out a straw toy.

Yao Xi: “……?”

She was speechless for a moment, and after a few breaths, she asked doubtfully, "Is this the Blue Sky Grass?"

She almost suspected that the child was playing a trick on her.

Who would use the precious blue grass to make toys?

Miaomiao ignored her and took apart the straw toy under her gaze.

The grass itself was truly remarkable. Even after being tangled into its original shape, it remained resilient and firm once disassembled. This was what Yaoxi recognized immediately; it truly was Biluo Grass.

Miaomiao confirmed the identity of the grass from her shocked look, and threw it to her casually: "Give it to him."

He also didn't want anyone to die in his grandfather's carriage, it was unlucky.

Yaoxi took it in silence.

Compared to the urgent priority of saving lives, everything else can be explored later.

As the herbal medicine entered his mouth, the painful expression on the unconscious man's face improved at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his breathing, which had been half stopped, suddenly resumed.

Yao Xi breathed a sigh of relief, only to realize that her hands were trembling slightly.

Another four or five minutes passed, and suddenly, a cry of surprise came from the conscious patients: "I see! The hospital is just ahead!"

They caught up!
