The tired face was clearly visible on the face of the beautiful girl who was riding a horse.
Xiu Qixuan let out a long sigh and grumbled as her butt was numb and achy sitting on the horse for hours. He was also very tired of trying to recover his body with the aura of life but did not succeed because his energy was not enough.
Raising one of his arms which is usually encased in Blue Jade Bracelet the girl was wide in shock when she did not find the important object in her arms. He had no idea that the bracelet had come off because of Xiu Jierui's grasp on him as it fell from above the eastern defensive fort.
"Where's my bracelet?" He was a little panicked. The pace of his horse stopped making Sima Junke and Aisin Tianyi turn to look at him.
"Quick! So slow," Shouted Sima Junke sharply.
"What's wrong? You exhausted?" Aisin Tianyi asked in a friendly manner, very inversely proportional to Sima Junke.
Xiu Qixuan tried to keep looking calm, she would think of a place where dropping the jade bracelet would be next time.
The girl shook her head answering Aisin Tianyi's question. Then he put his horse back on and positioned it to make a stand with them.
Throughout the journey Xiu Qixuan tried to remember the details of each incident that happened to him to find the location of his jade bracelet and crossed the scene where he fell on the eastern fortress, the eastern defense, the jade bracelet was in Xiu Jierui's hands. Hopefully his first brother will help keep the bracelet.
Then Xiu Qixuan also thought of a plan to escape and return to Ping'an City. But there are some considerations that make it a dilemma.
Xiu Qixuan was direction blind and did not have enough money to survive the journey.he did not want to after escaping from them—himself starved and became homeless. Xiu Qixuan was confident that sooner or later he would also return to Ping'an City no matter what way he made it back.
The plan this time was to collect or also arguably steal money and valuable property belonging to Sima Junke or Aisin Tianyi. After having all that— wherever he goes is still easy to live because he has money to sustain life.
Wherever the world is, money is still important to support life!
"I am very realistic! Think of it as a holiday" muttered Xiu Qixuan strengthened his resolve to follow them all the way to the Nanjing Capital.
Xiu Qixuan would not be rash to escape as she often saw drama scenes where the main cast was fleeing in such a hurry that new problems arose.
After all following Sima Junke and Aisin Tianyi wasn't so bad, because who would dare to bully and make it difficult?
******
Their group was resting on a small river flanked by high cliffs of rocks.
Standing on a boulder and putting both feet into the water of the small river, Xiu Qixuan enjoyed the exposure of water that touched both feet.
Meanwhile the Nanbao Army was resting and eating their food. Xiu Qixuan's current position was quite far away from them.
Xiu Qixuan had no taste in eating such cold food, very picky! But indeed why, before Xiu Qixuan had already pocketed food from Aisin Tianyi's magnificent tent secretly.
After a while, their rest time quickly passed and the group hurried to resume their journey.
Sima Junke and Aisin Tianyi were already on their respective horses. The two men circulated a glance as they did not find Xiu Qixuan.
"Where's the girl?" Ask Aisin Tianyi
"Don't know. I will look for him" Sima Junke replied rushing down from his horse.
Sima Junke took a quick step in search of the troublemaker Xiu Qixuan. Padaalkan Xiu Qixuan does not mean to make trouble.
The man looked at Xiu Qixuan's small back on a large rock. He quickly walked up to the beautiful girl from behind.
Just as he was one step closer to Xiu Qixuan, he could see patches of blood seeping out from behind the back of Xiu Qixuan who had previously been injured by the scratches of arrows.
The girl in front of him had not changed clothes since they met in the eastern custody and the clothes this girl was wearing were already broken, but strangely Xiu Qixuan did not complain about anything other than food.
Previously Kangjian only treated Xiu Qixuan by giving the medicine to the wounded sow but did not bandage or clean by undressing Xiu Qixuan because Xiu Qixuan was a girl—after Sima Junke did not order it.
The energy in Xiu Qixuan's body was not enough to bring out the Life Aura in order to heal him. The girl had to gather and recover her energy back to be able to bring out the Aura of Life.
The wound on Xiu Qixuan's back was still open and blood was flowing again due to the shaking along the way, but the girl did not complain of the slightest pain— as if she was indeed very healthy and strong.
Sima Junke frowned because he did not like to see someone in pain pretending to look good, it reminded him of his late mother.
Advancing his steps and then standing right in front of Xiu Qixuan. He put on a haughty face and said, "Fool girl, I'll tell you. It's futile to try to get attention with that wound on your back,"
But there was no reply from Xiu Qixuan that made Sima Junke bow his face to look at Xiu Qixuan.
With his hands propped up next to Xiu Qixuan's face fell asleep from exhaustion, helped by the fresh breeze in the afternoon making him sleepy.
A moment Sima Junke was amazed to see the innocent face of Xiu Qixuan. Closing both of her eyes as her consciousness recovered, Sima Junke removed her long robe and draped Xiu Qixuan's body then carried the girl towards Nanbao's entourage. Xiu Qixuan was not distracted from her sleep —the girl simply squirmed before returning to sleep.
******
Sima Junke's long robe was still nearby, Xiu Qixuan no longer needed to ask who brought it back.
It seemed like it was night time that made the Nanbao army choose to set up a small camp to rest.
Xiu Qixuan undressed his outer layer as his body was soaked by the sweat that kept flowing.He traveled riding horses for hours in the summer, was it a stroke of luck or misfortune?
Suddenly someone entered the room with a tray on top of which there was a bowl of medicine that billowed ripe.
Sima Junke was surprised to see that Xiu Qixuan had already woken up, whereas previously this girl was very difficult to wake up.
Trying to stay calm even though deep in her subconscious—Sima Junke was very nervous to see Xiu Qixuan who continued to pay attention to her every move when entering the tent that was hers, which was hers, moreover, Xiu Qixuan was dressed like that. Sima Junke is a shy grown man!
"Drink," Sima Junke said thrusting the tray he had brought to Xiu Qixuan, the man's face looked extremely flat as he tried to control himself.
Xiu Qixuan raised the corner of her brows looking at Sima Junke with a questioning expression.
"What's wrong with this guy? Very suspicious was suddenly of concern and kind," muttered Xiu Qixuan inwardly
"It's medicine not poison" Sima Junke said, the man seemed to have misunderstood Xiu Qixuan's hesitation to drink because he thought he was putting poison.
"I'm not sick," Xiu Qixuan replied but the girl still appreciates with the medicine upright of the bowl.
Sima Junke only silently looked at the behavior of Xiu Qixuan who instantly upheld the medicinal properties, wondering if the medicine was not bitter enough? or the numb Xiu Qixuan? Usually many people who complain will be told to take the medicine because it tastes bitter.
"Water," Xiu Qixuan said the two eyeballs of the girl looked teary-eyed holding bitterly.
Sima Junke quickly poured tea and gave it to Xiu Qixuan.
"Based on your appearance it should not be bitter enough," Ledek Sima Junke looked at Xiu Qixuan who stuck out her tongue from feeling the extremely bitter medicine.
"Humph, what's the drug for? I'm not sick," asked Xiu Qixuan snorting bitterly.
"The wound is on your back" Sima Junke replied briefly.
"Aiyaa, right. This wound I have not been able to heal yet," muttered Xiu Qixuan, in a reflex motion the girl reopened the second layer of her clothes exposing the long scar to Sima Junke who was frozen silent.
"Can you help me? Please apply this medicine in my wounds," Xiu Qixuan said thrusting the medicine for the external wounds she always brought to Sima Junke.
As an ordinary girl from the modern world—when in Mainland Ca Li—Xiu Qixuan does look very open, after all he thinks this action is still appropriate because he still wears decent and closed clothes.
"Why shut up? Couldn't? Otherwise I will ask Kangjian to do it," Xiu Qixuan said once more as she looked at the silent Sima Junke frozen.
"Oh you're embarrassed, huh?" Ledek Xiu Qixuan giggled at Sima Junke's embarrassed face.
Sima Junke cleared his throat slowly taking the medicine from Xiu Qixuan's hands and then replied, "No,"
The man applied the medicine to Xiu Qixuan's back slowly so as not to hurt the girl in front of him. The man's face was looking extremely tense as if he was getting a heavy exam.
"What's your name?" Sima Junke asked curiously as he did not know the name of the girl in front of him yet.
"Xiu Qixuan," Xiu Qixuan replied quickly.
"Good name," muttered Sima Junke spontaneously.
"But that's not my real name," muttered Xiu Qixuan very quietly with a long sigh.
"What are you talking about?" Sima Junke's question did not hear Xiu Qixuan's earlier remark.
Xiu Qixuan turned her body and looked at Sima Junke. Then he said, "It turns out you can praise. You were so grumpy before," with a sweet smile plastered on his face.
"It's over, you can rest here. I'm going out" Sima Junke said quickly running out of fear of not being able to control himself from Xiu Qixuan's charms.
"Can't stand my charmed smile" Kekeh Xiu Qixuan looked at Sima Junke's back that disappeared from behind the curtain of the tent's cover.
