Although Feng Jiuqing didn't expose Nangong Ling, there was an imperceptible curve in the corner of her mouth.

She also had to find some food, otherwise she would not have the strength to even walk out of the cave.

The snake meat roasted last night has gone cold, but now I have no choice to satisfy my hunger.

Feng Jiuqing patted the ash stuck to the dried snake meat, took a small piece for herself, and handed the rest to Nangong Ling.

"Nothing else, just make do with it."

There is no condiment, and the purely natural snake meat, even though it is burnt, still exudes an unbearable fishy smell.

Nangong Ling frowned almost imperceptibly, but he also understood that the conditions were harsh and he had no choice.

Facing the snake meat wrapped in plant ash and a little charcoal, Feng Jiuqing opened her mouth and took a bite.

The strong fishy smell lingered in her mouth, making her almost spit it out, but this was the only food to replenish her strength now.

She endured her physiological reaction, and half of the snake meat was quickly eaten. Her hungry and weak body gradually gained strength.

After the rain, poisons were everywhere in the forest. She sprinkled some anti-insect powder around the cave, settled Nangong Ling, and then headed towards the place where she saw the medicinal materials yesterday.

The fog was heavy and visibility was low. Feng Jiuqing was still a little weak and her body was still feverish.

This made it very difficult for her to move.

It took me a while to find the place where the herbs grew.

It wasn't anything particularly difficult to find at all, and they were all together in a short time.

While collecting herbs, she also picked some small wild fruits, which could temporarily satisfy her hunger and quench her thirst.

Feng Jiuqing was holding medicinal herbs and wild fruits, and just stepped into the cave when she found Nangong Ling looking longingly at the entrance of the cave.

Seeing her back, he seemed to be slightly relieved.

Even after putting down her things, Feng Jiuqing was not idle.

He took out the smooth pebbles he picked up from the river, smashed the collected medicine, and applied it to the wound on Nangong Ling's leg.

"This medicine is not as effective as the golden sore medicine. You should not move it casually. If it is allowed to breathe, the wound will become more likely to fester."

Nangong Ling looked at her movements, nodded and said, "Oh."

Knowing that he was restless, Feng Jiuqing specially pestered him a few more times.

After taking care of Nangong Ling's body, as soon as he stood up, his vision suddenly went dark.

Nangong Ling helped her up quickly with quick eyes and hands.

Her fever is not much better than last night.

"Why is it so hot?"

"do not move!"

Feng Jiuqing raised her hand and pressed Nangong Ling's shoulder, standing upright unsteadily.

"I found some medicine. There are some wild fruits over there. You can eat some first. My own body knows that it's just ordinary wind and cold."

She pressed the arm on Nangong Ling's shoulder with some force and her attitude was very tough.

"I don't want to have to deal with your wound again."

Her brows and eyes were full of exhaustion.

Although Nangong Ling didn't want to sit like a useless person, she also didn't want to trouble Feng Jiuqing.

He followed her strength and sat back down.

Feng Jiuqing picked out some of the herbs she brought back, chewed them in her mouth, and swallowed the dregs of the herbs together.

Then he took off his clothes and started applying medicine to himself.

Nangong Ling was well protected, and the injuries on her body were all small scratches from branches when she fell.

She didn't feel embarrassed at all.

Although he and Nangong Ling have reconciled and separated, they have done more intimate things between them.

Feng Jiuqing, who had her back to Nangong Ling, didn't notice that Nangong Ling's gaze seemed to be getting more and more intense as he stared at her.

Nangong Ling didn't know what was going on with herself.

Seeing Feng Jiuqing, he felt a little restless for no reason.

But it soon subsided.

He didn't take it to heart either.

Feng Jiuqing applied good medicine to the wounds and placed wild fruits in front of Nangong Ling.

"I rely on them to satisfy my hunger during this period. When I'm hungry, I eat something."

After saying that, she ate two pills first.

Those medicinal materials just now will put her into a deep sleep for a period of time, and she must replenish her strength in advance.

I rearranged the haystack where I slept last night to make it softer to ensure that it can retain more heat in the forest where the temperature is lower.

"I'm a little sleepy. Let's sleep for a while. If you need anything, just call me."

She was so tired that every word stuck together when she spoke, making it difficult to speak clearly.

Nangong Ling gave her his robe.

"Cover it, don't catch a cold again."

Feng Jiuqing glanced at it and moved her lips.

Then I heard Nangong Ling say, "If your cold gets worse, it will be bad for both you and me."

Feng Jiuqing then took over his robe and swallowed the words that came to her lips again.

As soon as she lay down on the haystack, the lingering sleepiness hit her like a raging wave, and she fell asleep quickly.

…

Here Dong Yi also led his troops and searched in the valley for a day and a night despite the pouring rain.

But no trace of Nangong Ling or Feng Jiuqing was found.

On the contrary, the people sent out were as tired as eggplants beaten by frost.

Someone reported: "General, it has just rained, and the fog is heavy in the valley. Otherwise... let's wait until the fog clears and look for it. Brothers, we really can't bear it anymore."

Dong Yi had a sullen face and stood with his hands behind his hands. He stared at the mist-shrouded valley with a pair of cold eyes. He didn't know whether he heard it or not.

Not far away, the sounds of soldiers sighing could be heard one after another.

He also knew that the valley was at its peak when the miasma was at its peak. Not to mention going in to look for people, they might even have to bring in all their soldiers.

But will those people in the Western Regions really give up?

What's more, the valley is so high that if you fall, you will die or be injured, so you still need to speed up the search.

After Dong Yi thought for a moment, he waved his hand and said, "Let these soldiers withdraw first, and another group of people will continue to search. We must find His Highness Prince Sheng."

"yes."

…

As soon as Feng Jiuqing fell asleep, there were some intermittent scenes in her mind.

I don't know if it was her imagination, but Feng Xiye's face seemed to be getting clearer and clearer in her dream.

Pulled away from her dream, Feng Jiuqing blinked her eyes, and what caught her eyes was the stone wall that was seeping water down.

The memory in my mind flashed back instantly, and when I looked sideways, it was already dark outside.

There was still some light visible outside, but it was already pitch dark inside the cave.

After such a long period of rest, her fever has almost subsided. Although she is still a little feverish, her physical strength has basically recovered.

There is not much dry firewood in the cave, and the rain may slow down Dong Yi's ability to find them.

This time, Feng Jiuqing was not as extravagant as yesterday and only lit a piece of firewood.

Therefore, although there is light in the cave, it is not obvious.

Nangong Ling didn't know when she fell asleep, her eyes were closed tightly, her injured leg was still laying fine, but her face seemed a little red.

She stretched out her hand and touched it. It was a little warm, maybe she had caught a cold.

"Wake up, Nangong Ling."

"Um?"

Nangong Ling blinked, but still couldn't see Feng Jiuqing's face clearly.

Dimly, I felt that Feng Jiuqing's face seemed to have become brighter.

He stretched out his hand, but had not yet touched Feng Jiuqing.

I saw her turning around in a hurry to find the medicine she had collected today.
