I don’t know how Gu Yun and the others found this small wooden house that looked abandoned for quite some time.

As she approached, she heard faint and sad sobbing sounds.

"Wuwuwu... Wuwuwu... Ah Shen. Please, don't die. If you die, I will never live alone. Wuwuwu..."

The crying sound was Jiang Yanyu's. Rong Su walked into the cabin and saw her sitting on a worn-out chair, covering her face with her hands, her body trembling and crying.

Gu Yuer stood beside her, constantly comforting her sad emotions.

When they saw her, Gu Yuer asked her with concern on her face: "Sister Rong, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Jiang Yanyu seemed to have stopped crying as well. She raised her tear-stained face and looked at her with tears in her eyes and concern.

When Rong Su saw the overly sincere expressions in their eyes, she was stunned for a moment, and then the emotion disappeared with the wind. She just shook her head and changed the subject to ask about Yuan Shen.

"Doctor Gu is treating Master Yuan, right?"

When Yuan Shen was mentioned, Jiang Yanyu's eyes turned red again, and she couldn't hold back her tears.

Gu Yuer felt uncomfortable watching this, and could not help but nod and reply to Rong Su: "Yes. Brother is treating Master Yuan's injury."

Time passed by little by little, until half an hour had passed and Gu Yun still hadn't come out of the inner room, which made people more and more anxious.

Jiang Yanyu couldn't stop crying, and her eyes seemed to be bleeding. Gu Yuer saw it and panicked and took out a handkerchief for her.

"Sister Jiang, stop crying, you're bleeding!"

Rong Su and Shen Peiqing, who were thinking about other things, looked over when they heard this.

When Rong Su saw that Jiang Yanyu's eyes were abnormally red and bloodshot at the corners of her eyes, she frowned, walked over, grabbed her wrist and took her pulse.

The injuries on her body have been treated, probably by Gu Yuer. There is no major problem internally, she is just a little weak at the moment.

I looked up at her eyes again and saw a small bloodstain on the white of her eye, which was irregular in shape and had a trace of blood.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but sternly warn Jiang Yanyu: "Don't cry anymore, or you'll go blind!"

As she spoke, Rong Su took out her silver needle bag, took out a silver needle from it and inserted it into one of Jiang Yanyu's acupuncture points.

"This will help you stop crying. Jiang Yanyu, it's useless to be sad. You're injured too. If Yuan Shen wakes up and sees you like this, will he feel better? Take care of yourself first. And don't rub your eyes with your hands."

If Rong Su hadn't been afraid that Jiang Yanyu would cry herself to death, she wouldn't have bothered to say these words to her.

After putting away the silver needle, she stood up and sat back in her chair with an indifferent expression, no longer caring what Jiang Yanyu thought.

After being scolded by Rong Su, Jiang Yanyu gradually realized that crying was useless. She clasped her hands together and began to pray silently for Yuan Shen.

Shen Peiqing, who was leaning against the door, had eyes as deep as ink. He glanced at Rong Su and then concealed the unknown emotions in his eyes.

There was a sort of frozen silence in the atmosphere.

Gu Yun walked out slowly from the inner room, with a lot of sweat on his white forehead. It was obvious that treating Yuan Shen was a very laborious task, and it could be seen that Yuan Shen's injuries must be very serious.

Seeing Gu Yun coming out, Jiang Yanyu quickly stood up from her chair, clasped her hands tightly, and asked Gu Yun nervously and anxiously, "Doctor Gu, how is Ah Shen?"

Seeing Jiang Yanyu's anxious concern, Gu Yun quickly said, "Mr. Yuan's injuries have been treated. He'll slowly get better after taking some medicine. So I plan to go look for herbs nearby that can help alleviate his injuries."

After hearing this, Jiang Yanyu breathed a sigh of relief, burst into laughter, and thanked Gu Yun repeatedly.

"Thank you, Doctor Gu! Thank you, and thank you all, you saved us."

As she said this, Jiang Yanyu was about to kneel down and kowtow to them to express her gratitude.

Seeing this, Gu Yun quickly reached out to stop them: "Miss Jiang, there's no need to thank me. Go in and see Master Yuan first. Yu'er, let's go find some herbs."

Jiang Yanyu looked at Gu Yun with gratitude. When Gu Yuer heard what Gu Yun said, she also agreed: "Yes, go and take care of Master Yuan!"

Jiang Yanyu was indeed worried about Yuan Shen, so she no longer hesitated and went into the inner room.

As Gu Yun walked out, he seemed to have thought of something, looked at Shen Peiqing embarrassedly, and asked for help.

"Mr. Shen, could you please go and find some dead branches to use as firewood? We'll need them to make the medicine later."

Shen Peiqing was silent for a moment, without much reaction, and just nodded faintly.

Gu Yun said gratefully, "Thank you."

Then both brother and sister left to look for herbs.

Seeing Shen Peiqing about to go out, Rong Su thought for a moment and called out to him, "Wait, I'll go with you."

These words made Shen Peiqing stunned. He looked at Rong Su in surprise, his eyes filled with dark colors, and he looked surprised.

Seeing his expression, Rong Su curled her lips, walked past him, and said calmly, "I've almost used up all the poison. I just need to find some more herbs."

She knew that Gu Yun did not approve of her using poison to hurt others, so if she asked him to help find herbs, he might not agree. It would be better for her to find them herself and not have to ask others for help.

Although she didn't know much about wild herbs, she used to buy them at the pharmacy.

When Shen Peiqing heard this was the reason, the surprise in his eyes slowly faded away, and then he returned to his indifference and walked away.

The two of them came to a relatively secluded forest with quite a lot of dead branches and vegetation.

Rong Su looked around and slowly searched for the herbs according to the appearance of the herbs he had read in books.

From time to time, he bent down to carefully identify it, and from time to time he reached out to pick it and put it under his nose to smell it.

After searching for about a quarter of an hour, she finally found two or three suitable herbs that met the characteristics.

As soon as she stood up, she heard a very low, dull sound and the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.

He paused for a moment, stuffed all the herbs into the cloth bag he had always used to store them, then turned and looked in the direction of the sound.

At first glance, he saw Shen Peiqing's stern face slightly twisted with pain. He was holding his wrist, sweat seemed to be oozing from his forehead, and dead branches and wood blocks were scattered around his feet.

When Rong Su saw this, he suddenly remembered that Shen Peiqing had swung the wooden stick before, and it must have touched his meridians at that time.

Thinking of this, she put away the cloth bag and strode towards him.

Shen Peiqing noticed her actions and subconsciously took two steps back. He endured the severe pain in his wrist and kept a vigilant eye on Rong Su.

Seeing him like this, Rong Su couldn't help but tease: "What? Are you afraid of me?"

Shen Peiqing's vision was blurred by the pain, and he managed to hold himself back from collapsing in disgrace. He retorted in a hoarse voice, "I'm not afraid at all. I'm just wary of whether you, a crazy girl, will use some trick to play on me again!"

Hearing this gritted teeth answer, Rong Su curled her lips, twisted the corner of her mouth, strode up to him, stretched out her hand and grabbed his wrist.

Shen Peiqing was shocked, his pupils dilated slightly. He tried to retract his hand, but found that his wrist was in great pain. The slightest movement was unbearable as if his bones were being cut and cramps were being pulled.

"Behave yourself. If you really don't want me to use drugs again, then be obedient." She narrowed her eyes and threatened him.

Shen Peiqing really didn't want to experience the feeling of being slaughtered like a piece of trash again. He glared at her fiercely, but also pursed his lips tightly and stopped resisting.

Seeing that he had finally been obedient, Rong Su smiled with satisfaction. She took out the medicinal powder she had made with camphor earlier, and gently lifted up his sleeve, revealing his already red and swollen wrist.

Seeing the blood faintly flowing out of the wrist, she frowned slightly, and then sprinkled the medicine powder on it.

Shen Peiqing originally thought that she was going to do something to torture him again, but it turned out that she was actually treating his wrist seriously. He couldn't help but stare at her in a daze, with a strange emotion inexplicably emerging in his heart.

After Rong Su finished spreading the medicine powder, she looked up and met his ink-black eyes, which were now filled with confusion. For the first time, she said with some patience, "This is a medicine powder made from camphor. It has the effect of relieving pain and itching."

When I heard her say this, I suddenly remembered that I had seen her fiddling with some camphor trees for a long time before. I didn't expect it was to make medicine.

Rong Su saw that he was still in a daze, and found the expression on his handsome face quite interesting, so she couldn't help but want to tease him.

"Like you said, I've teased you several times. You should want me dead. Today, I was surrounded by those people. In fact, you can ignore my request and let those people attack me. A weak woman like me will definitely be beaten to death. Isn't that what you want?"

Shen Peiqing didn't expect her to bring this up suddenly, nor did he expect her to see through his thoughts. A trace of awkwardness and embarrassment flashed across his stern face. He quickly turned his face away, remained silent for a few seconds, and then whispered in a low voice.

"You said you would heal my meridians. I still need you."

Having said this, he suddenly felt that what he said was not what he wanted to say. He bit his lip as if he was angry with himself, then turned his head angrily and looked at Rong Su.

His expression was as gloomy as a storm, his eyes were dark and cold, and his tone was bloodthirsty and crazy: "Even if you want to die, you must heal my meridians. Otherwise, I will not let you go easily!"

Seeing Shen Peiqing showing this expression, Rong Su was not afraid at all, but felt it was fresh, and couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.

She moved closer to him, looking directly into his dark eyes, and spoke in a gentle voice, but the words that came out of her mouth were sharp and unyielding.

"Okay. Then let's see who dies first, you or me."

Rong Su suddenly said this, and Shen Peiqing was stunned for a moment, frowning, not understanding what she meant. Her words were inconsistent. Did she mean that she would heal him, or was she going to fight him to the death?

Before he could figure it out, he heard Gu Yuer calling from not far away.

"Sister Rong! Master Shen! Master Yuan is awake!"

As soon as they heard that Yuan Shen had woken up, the two of them returned to the cabin, one in front and one behind, carrying the dead branches.

Yuan Shen's face was terribly pale, and he looked so weak that he looked like he was going to die. He seemed a little surprised when he saw them, and asked in a hoarse voice, "How could this happen, everyone? Did you save me?"

Jiang Yanyu's eyes were red, and she answered in a tearful voice, "Yes, Ah Shen, it was Miss Rong and the others who saved us again. Also, how are you now?"

After hearing Jiang Yanyu's words, Yuan Shen looked at them with gratitude in his eyes: "Thank you everyone, I have no way to repay you."

As he spoke, he struggled to get up from the bed and salute them. Gu Yun saw this and hurried forward to stop him.

"Master Yuan, you are injured now, so you don't need to move anymore."

Yuan Shen propped himself up on the bed and thanked them again. Then, a thought struck him. He looked at them and asked, "You all should have entered Yuan Town. Do you know anything about my father's condition?"

After these words were spoken, they were all slightly stunned.

"Is your father the former clan leader?" Gu Yun thought for a moment and asked softly.

Yuan Shen nodded, a look of worry and concern on his pale face. "Yes, my father, Yuan An, was the former clan leader, but I heard some news about him in the water dungeon. He said he had been missing for a long time. I'm very worried. I wonder if you have heard any news about him?"

Gu Yun frowned after hearing this, and seemed to be unaware of it.

Judging from the expressions of the others, they didn't look like they had heard the news either, and they were all confused.

Rong Su looked at their expressions and thought about it for a moment. She had heard a little about Yuan An when she was asking about Yuan Shen.

"Maybe your father has met with an accident." She guessed the worst outcome. Yuan Feng seemed to be a bit cruel in his actions. Yuan An's disappearance could not be a simple disappearance.

After hearing this, Yuan Shen's face changed and he shook his head, unwilling to believe it: "No way. My father is so powerful, how could it be possible?"

"If it's just a rumor that he's missing, then he should just be missing." Gu Yun comforted Yuan Shen.

"Yes, yes. It should be fine!" Gu Yuer agreed and nodded repeatedly.

Rong Su looked at them like this, lowered his eyes, and a hint of sneer flashed across his eyes. He was just deceiving himself.

At this moment, a series of light footsteps were heard outside the cabin.

When they heard this, they couldn't help but get nervous.

Shen Peiqing was the first to stand near the door of the inner room, with a solemn and cautious expression, holding a dry branch in his hand, and an expression that looked like he was ready to fight at any time.

Someone walked in. Shen Peiqing's eyes were sharp and cold. He was about to raise the dead branch in his hand to attack the person who came in. Gu Yun saw that the person was ragged and did not look like an enemy, so he immediately spoke up to stop Shen Peiqing.

"Master Shen! Stop it!"

Shen Peiqing frowned, but stopped his hand in mid-air.

Then, the man walked in, his eyes fell on Yuan Shen, and then he knelt down in front of Yuan Shen while crying.

With a loud thud, his knee hit the floor.

"Master!"

This move shocked them all.

This man was not only dressed in rags, but his face was so ulcerated that his facial features could not be seen clearly. It must have been burned by fire.

Yuan Shen looked at the man in surprise and was about to ask who he was when the man suddenly introduced himself.

"Master! I'm Uncle Lin!"

Yuan Shen suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Uncle Lin in disbelief: "Uncle? How did you become like this?"

Uncle Lin's eyes were red, and he cried to Yuan Shen, "Master, I beg you to leave this place quickly, run away!"

When these words were spoken, people couldn't help but feel confused and puzzled. Why did Uncle Lin ask Yuan Shen to escape as soon as he came in? What was hidden in it?
